Disruption of naturally evolved spatial patterns of genetic variation and local adaptations is a growing concern in wildlife management and conservation. During the last decade, releases of native taxa with potentially non-native genotypes have received increased attention. This has mostly concerned conservation programs, but releases are also widely carried out to boost harvest opportunities. The mallard, Anas platyrhynchos, is one of few terrestrial migratory vertebrates subjected to large-scale ...

Territoriality and foraging behaviour play major roles in determining the abundance and distribution of mobile animals. To date, territorial behaviour of young-of-the-year (YOY) salmonids is typically described for sit-and-wait individuals that defend territories from one foraging station, but rarely for more mobile fish. We examined the territorial behaviour and foraging mode of 31 YOY Arctic char ( Salvelinus alpinus ) and 30 YOY brown trout ( Salmo trutta ) in relation to ecological factors in six rivers ...

Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is the most common mesenchymal tumor of the gastrointestinal tract. It is characterized by activating mutations in the tyrosine kinase genes c-kit or PDGFRA. This study examined the mutation rate and type in a population-based material. All gastrointestinal mesenchymal tumors over the years 1990-2004 were evaluated and GIST tumors identified using immunohistochemistry (c-kit) and conventional pathologic parameters. Paraffin sections from all tumors were subjected ...

DNA fragments containing mispaired and modified bases, bulges, lesions and specific sequences have altered conformation. Methods for separating complex samples of DNA fragments based on conformation but independent of length have many applications, including (i) separation of mismatched or unmatched DNA fragments from those perfectly matched; (ii) simultaneous, diagnostic, mismatch scanning of multiple fragments; (iii) isolation of damaged DNA fragments from undamaged fragments; and (iv) estimation ...

Cold‐adaptation of enzymes involves improvements in catalytic efficiency. This paper describes studies on the conformational stability of a cold‐active alkaline phosphatase (AP) from Atlantic cod, with the aim of understanding more clearly its structural stability in terms of subunit dissociation and unfolding of monomers. AP is a homodimeric enzyme that is only active in the dimeric state. Tryptophan fluorescence, size‐exclusion chromatography and enzyme activity were used to monitor alterations ...

The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of hypocapnic hypoxia, acidemia and the combination of hypoxia/acidemia on blood flow velocity variables in the fetal cerebral circulation. Chronically instrumented fetal sheep were used and the ewes were induced to breathe a hypoxic gas mixture for about 90 min. This caused an initial period of hypoxemia followed by a period of mixed hypoxemia/acidemia. When the ewe was reoxygenated, the fetus experienced a period of normoxic acidemia. The fetal ...

Abstract Recent Icelandic rifting events have illuminated the roles of centralized crustal magma reservoirs and lateral magma transport 1–4 , important characteristics of mid-ocean ridge magmatism 1,5 . A consequence of such shallow crustal processing of magmas 4,5 is the overprinting of signatures that trace the origin, evolution and transport of melts in the uppermost mantle and lowermost crust 6,7 . Here we present unique insights into processes occurring in this zone from integrated petrologic and ...

Cardiac myxoma (CM) is the most common primary benign tumor of the heart, but the true age-standardized incidence rate (ASR) has remained unknown. We therefore used nationwide registries in Iceland to study CM and establish its incidence rate. This was a retrospective study involving all patients diagnosed with CM in Iceland between 1986 and 2010. Cases were identified through three different registries, and hospital charts and histology results reviewed. An ASR was estimated based on a world standard ...

BACKGROUND The causes of imprecision in microarray expression analysis are poorly understood, limiting the use of this technology in molecular diagnostics. Two-dimensional strandness-dependent electrophoresis (2D-SDE) separates nucleic acid molecules on the basis of length and strandness, i.e., double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), and RNA·DNA hybrids. METHODS We used 2D-SDE to measure the efficiency of cDNA synthesis and its importance for the imprecision of an in vitro transcription– ...

Abstract Gallstones are responsible for one of the most common diseases in the Western world and are commonly treated with cholecystectomy. We perform a meta-analysis of two genome-wide association studies of gallstone disease in Iceland and the UK, totaling 27,174 cases and 736,838 controls, uncovering 21 novel gallstone-associated variants at 20 loci. Two distinct low frequency missense variants in SLC10A2 , encoding the apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter (ASBT), associate with an increased ...

Robotic layup of pre-impregnated (prepreg) fiber plies onto complex molds is a hitherto unsolved problem. At the University of Southern Denmark (SDU), we have gathered an international consortium with industrial keyplayers for addressing this gap in the FlexDraper project. We use an underactuated array of suction cups to handle the plies and our approach is based on model- and simulation-based control of the shaping of the tool and the free hanging plies during the draping procedure. This requires ...

Abstract The basaltic effusive eruption at Mt. Fagradalsfjall lasted from 19 March to 18 September 2021, ending a 781‐year repose period on Reykjanes Peninsula, Iceland. By late September 2021, 33 near real‐time photogrammetric surveys were completed using satellite and airborne images, usually processed within 3–6 hr. The results provide unprecedented temporal data sets of lava volume, thickness, and effusion rate. This enabled rapid assessment of eruption evolution and hazards to populated areas, ...

Complement is known to be activated in atherosclerotic lesions, but the importance of this event in disease pathology is a matter of debate. Studies of rabbits fed a high-fat diet have indicated complement activation as a rate-limiting step, whereas results from genetically modified mouse strains (ApoE-/- or LDLR-/-) have failed to support this finding. To resolve whether this reflects differences between species or between genetically driven and diet-induced disease, we studied the effect of a complement ...
