A phylogenetic effect on strontium concentrations in angiosperms (2006)
Journal Article
A Residual Maximum Likelihood (REML) procedure was used to compile Sr concentrations in 103 plant species from experiments with Sr concentrations in 66 plant species from the literature. There were 14 species in common between experiments and the lit... Read More about A phylogenetic effect on strontium concentrations in angiosperms.
A dispersion modelling approach to determine the odour impact of intensive poultry production units in Ireland (2006)
Journal Article
The use of atmospheric dispersion modelling has become more common for the determination of odour impacts from existing poultry production facilities and the assessment of setback distances for new facilities. Setback distances for broiler, layer and... Read More about A dispersion modelling approach to determine the odour impact of intensive poultry production units in Ireland.
Relationship between the expression of hepatic but not testicular 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase with androstenone deposition in pig adipose tissue (2006)
Journal Article
This study investigated the relationship between expression of hepatic and testicular 3/3-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3/3-HSD) and accumulation of androstenone in adipose tissue because of its relation to boar taint. The experiments were performed... Read More about Relationship between the expression of hepatic but not testicular 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase with androstenone deposition in pig adipose tissue.
Does the price impact of flooding fade away? (2006)
Journal Article
Purpose Climate change will present many new challenges for professionals in the built environment. Observers have speculated that the increase in damage to property caused by more frequent and severe flood events may result in loss of property value...

Advanced paternal age: How old is too old? (2006)
Journal Article
Average paternal age in the UK is increasing. The public
health implications of this trend have not been widely
anticipated or debated. This commentary aims to contribute
to such a debate. Accumulated chromosomal aberrations
and mutations occurri... Read More about Advanced paternal age: How old is too old?.
The Wilms tumour suppressor protein WT1 (+KTS isoform) binds alpha-actinin 1 mRNA via its zinc-finger domain (2006)
Journal Article
Mutations in WT1 are associated with developmental syndromes that affect the urogenital system and neoplasms, including Wilms tumour, acute myeloid leukemia, and breast and prostate cancers. The WT1 protein belongs to the early growth response family... Read More about The Wilms tumour suppressor protein WT1 (+KTS isoform) binds alpha-actinin 1 mRNA via its zinc-finger domain.
Production of reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species by angiosperm stigmas and pollen: Potential signalling crosstalk? (2006)
Journal Article
• Angiosperm stigmas exhibit high levels of peroxidase activity when receptive to pollen. To explore possible function(s) of this peroxidase activity we investigated amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS), particularly hydrogen peroxide, in stigmas...

Lifelong learning and the knowledge economy: Those that know and those that do not - The discourse of the European Union (2006)
Journal Article
This article is based on a textual analysis of European Commission documents that, from 1993 to 2006, construct the discourses of lifelong learning and the knowledge economy. Exploring an apparent conceptual laxity, it finds absolute consistency in t...

The role of natural heritage in rural development: An analysis of economic linkages in Scotland (2006)
Journal Article
There is growing recognition of the important role played by natural heritage in rural economic development, but limited empirical work as yet to inform this debate. This paper examines the nature and strength of local economic linkages associated wi...

The experiences of trained nurses caring for critically ill patients within a general ward setting (2006)
Journal Article
Background: The concept that critical care is a service rather than a location has been increasingly highlighted. However, there is limited information regarding nurses' perceptions of caring for critically ill patients outside of high dependency are...

The reversibility of constraints on size and fecundity in the parasitic nematode Strongyloides ratti (2006)
Journal Article
The size and fecundity of parasitic nematodes are constrained by the host immune response. For the parasitic nematode of rats, Strongyloides ratti, parasitic females infecting immunized rats are smaller and less fecu1nd than those infecting naïve rat...

Identity, life history and commitment to welfare (2006)
Journal Article
Using detailed extracts from two life histories, this article examines the nature of the personal identifications that often underpin the commitment of welfare workers to their jobs. We explore the paradox that it is those identifications such as cla... Read More about Identity, life history and commitment to welfare.

An analysis of intertaxa differences in sulfur concentration in angiosperms (2006)
Journal Article
Understanding the behavior of sulfur (S) in the soil-plant system is important for crop production, for predicting the movement of the radioisotope 35S in the environment, and for investigating the role of S in plant metabolism of xenobiotics. A data... Read More about An analysis of intertaxa differences in sulfur concentration in angiosperms.
