(2024-04-25)
Weeds are the major limiting factor in lowbush blueberry production with stands consisting of a range of woody and herbaceous perennials. However, recent weed surveys have identified an increased occurrence of annual weeds ...
Do healthy diets cost more? A critical re-examination of diet cost methodology and its association with dietary adequacy
(2024-04-25)
This dissertation aimed to critically re-examine diet cost methodology, including the derivation of diet costs, and how diet costs predict dietary adequacy among Canadians. First, a systematic scoping review was conducted ...
External controls on Post-Eocene slope-to-deep-water sediment deposition in offshore Tanzania
(2024-04-27)
The East African Rift System (EARS), a modern example of a divergent plate boundary in its early stages of development, is a natural laboratory to investigate the interplay between rift tectonics and landscape evolution. ...
INVESTIGATING THE GENOMIC COMPOSITION OF OXYRRHIS MARINA, AN EARLY DIVERGING DINOFLAGELLATE
(2024-04-28)
Dinoflagellates are microbial eukaryotes with unique nuclear and mitochondrial genome organization. Their nuclear genomes are large and rich in repetitive elements and redundant gene copies, including retrogenes derived ...
