S U M M A R Y . Forty-three natural alkali feldspars have been homogenized and used to correlate d.~01 with wt % K20. The regression of Or on dg01 is Or (wt %) = 465"5 d~01 (~)-1877"5, and is comparable to that obtained on an exchanged orthoclase (Wright, I968). A deviation from the Orville (I963, I967) determinative line for synthetic sanidine-albite is greatest at the high potassium end of th...

The fourth through sixth parity of 5- to 10-yr-old cows were used to evaluate trade-offs involved with sires of large mature size vs medium mature size in a terminal sire crossbreeding program and to characterize five breeds and their crosses for their potential as dam lines. Charolais and Red Poll bulls, representing large (L) and medium (M) mature size, respectively, were mated to cows repres...

We propose a major index statistic on 01-fillings of moon polyominoes which, when specialized to certain shapes, reduces to the major index for permutations and set partitions. We consider the set F(M, s;A) of all 01-fillings of a moon polyomino M with given column sum s whose empty rows are A, and prove that this major index has the same distribution as the number of north-east chains, which a...

Previous research demonstrated that the matrix protein (M) and glycoprotein (G) of attenuated rabies virus (RABV) strains are involved in the induction of host cell apoptosis. In this work, we show that wild-type (wt) RABV GD-SH-01 induces significantly greater apoptosis than the attenuated strain HEP-Flury. In order to identify the gene(s) accounting for this phenotype, five recombinant RABVs ...

We establish a stronger symmetry between the numbers of northeast and southeast chains in the context of 01-fillings of moon polyominoes. Let M be a moon polyomino with n rows and m columns. Consider all the 01-fillings of M in which every row has at most one 1. We introduce four mixed statistics with respect to a bipartition of rows or columns of M. More precisely, let S ⊆ {1, 2, . . . , n} an...

We study the category Igr of graded representations with finite-dimensional graded pieces for the current algebra g ⊗ C[t] where g is a simple Lie algebra. This category has many similarities with the categoryO of modules for g, and in this paper, we prove an analog of the famous BGG duality in the case of sln+1.
