Genome-based analysis of the genetic pattern of black sheep in Qira sheep by Wen Zhou, Xiaopeng Li, Xuechen Zhang, Lijun Zhu, Yuwei Peng, Cheng-long Zhang, Zhipeng Han, Ruizhi Yang, Xinyu Bai, Quanfeng Wang, Yuejun Zhao, Shudong Liu

“…Conclusion In this paper, Qira sheep could not differentiate the genetic structure of this population by wool color, and obtained 71 SNPs related to black wool. Detection of mutation sites on the TYRP1 gene affecting hair color change provides a basis for black sheep line selection as well as breed conservation.…”

Bulk Motions in the Black Hole Jet Sheath as a Candidate for the Comptonizing Corona by Navin Sridhar, Bart Ripperda, Lorenzo Sironi, Jordy Davelaar, Andrei M. Beloborodov

“…Using two-dimensional general relativistic resistive magnetohydrodynamic simulations, we investigate the properties of the sheath separating the black hole jet from the surrounding medium. We find that the electromagnetic power flowing through the jet sheath is comparable to the overall accretion power of the black hole. …”

Yield Responses of Black Spruce to Forest Vegetation Management Treatments: Initial Responses and Rotational Projections by Peter F. Newton

“…Rotational simulations indicated that FVM treatments resulted in gains in stand-level operability (e.g., reductions of 9 and 5 yr for plantations established on poor-medium and good-excellent site qualities, resp.). The challenge of maintaining coniferous forest cover on recently disturbed sites, attaining statutory-defined free-to-grow status, and ensuring long-term productivity, suggest that FVM will continue to be an essential silvicultural treatment option when managing black spruce plantations.…”
