description: Early feeding of a sufficient quantity of high-quality colostrum is the key to good colostrum management and obtaining sufficient passive transfer of immunity in newborn calves. Various products have been added to colostrum to evaluate their potential for improving passive transfer of colostral immunoglobulins (lg). Research findings suggest that maternal colostrum supplemented with gut-active carbohydrates (GAC) or mannan-oligosaccharides resulted in higher serum IgG concentrations in young mammals. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of supplementing a commercial colostrum replacer (CR) with GAC on the serum IgG concentration and preweaning performance of dairy calves in a commercial farm setting.

description: Dictyostelium cells undergo a semi-closed mitosis, during which the nuclear envelope (NE) persists; however, free diffusion between the cytoplasm and the nucleus takes place. To permit the formation of the mitotic spindle, the nuclear envelope must be permeabilized in order to allow diffusion of tubulin dimers and spindle assembly factors into the nucleus. In Aspergillus, free diffusion of proteins between the cytoplasm and the nucleus is achieved by a partial disassembly of the nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) prior to spindle assembly. In order to determine whether this is also the case in Dictyostelium, we analysed components of the NPC by immunofluorescence microscopy and live cell imaging and studied their behaviour during interphase and mitosis. We observed that the NPCs are absent from the contact area of the nucleoli and that some nucleoporins also localize to the centrosome and the spindle poles. In addition, we could show that, during mitosis, the central FG protein NUP62, two inner ring components and Gle1 depart from the NPCs, while all other tested NUPs remained at the NE. This leads to the conclusion that indeed a partial disassembly of the NPCs takes place, which contributes to permeabilisation of the NE during semi-closed mitosis.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.In spring 2000, IFREMER organised its yearly fisheries acoustic survey on board R/V 'Thalassa' over the French shelf of Biscay as a multi-disciplinary platform for estimating and mapping the fish and monitoring the pelagic ecosystem. Acoustics and CUFES (continuous underway fish egg sampler) were coupled allowing combined mapping of the adult fish and its spawned eggs. Four major compartments of the plankton ecosystem were extensively sampled on a grid of stations. More than 50 variables were measured in the plankton relating biomass as well as turn over in four compartments, hydrology, nutrients and particulate matter, bacteria and phytoplankton, meso-zooplankton. First, a joint analysis was performed using Multiple Factorial Analysis (MFA). The method allowed for the estimation of a common factorial space in which to represent the structure in each compartment as well as the common structure to all compartments. The most structuring variables were evidenced. Stations were then grouped based on their positions in the common factorial space. The groups were represented spatially and a strong spatial pattern evidenced. Groups were interpreted as functional pelagic entities as they corresponded to different ecosystems at different state in their seasonal evolution. The distribution of the fish and their eggs was analysed in relation to the hydro-plankton entities using geostatistical variography. Sardine and anchovy distributed in different entities but similar for each fish species and its eggs. Anchovy was shown to be associated with a lesser number of hydro-plankton entities than sardine. Anchovy was more confined to its entities than sardine which crossed the entity borders. Last, the interest in measuring size fractionated chlorophyll during fisheries surveys in Biscay was discussed as the study showed that this parameter enabled to track the river plume hydro-plankton entity in which anchovy spawned.

description: Pain management during the dehorning of calves is an important welfare issue on dairy farms. The traditional approach of using only local anesthesia (i.e. a cornual nerve block with lidocaine) is only temporarily effective, and delays but does not prevent significant pain and distress to the calf. Recent research findings suggest that administration of a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug such as injectable meloxicam in addition to local anesthesia can significantly reduce the signs of pain for ≥ 24 hours after cautery dehorning in 6- to 12-week-old Holstein calves. The objective of the current study was to conduct a randomized placebo-controlled trial to describe the effect of administration of oral meloxicam in addition to local anesthesia on behavioral measures of pain and distress following cautery dehorning in preweaned Jersey calves.

description: The concept of SDN has emerged as a way to address numerous challenges with traditional network architectures by decoupling network control and forwarding. So far, the use cases for SDN mainly targeted data-center applications. This article considers SDN for network carriers, facing operation of large-scale networks with millions of customers, multiple technologies, and high availability demands. With specific carrier-grade features such as scalability, reliability, flexibility, modularity, and virtualization in mind, the SPARC EU project has developed the SPARC SplitArchitecture concept. The SplitArchitecture control plane allows hierarchical layering of several control plane layers which can be flexibly mapped to data plane layers. Between control layers open interfaces are used. Furthermore, SplitArchitecture proposes an additional split of forwarding and processing functions in data path elements, enabling switch based OAM functionality and handling of tunneling techniques. The SplitArchitecture concept is evaluated in a prototype demonstrating an SDN version of BRAS: the floating BRAS. The floating BRAS allows creation of residential Internet access services with dynamically managed BRAS instances. The demo is based on a controller enabling protected MPLS transport connections spanning SDN-controlled aggregation and IP/MPLS-based core domains. The prototype showcases how SplitArchitecture enables virtualization of service nodes in an SDN-controlled network, leading to increased flexibility in configuration and placement of service creation functions. Overall, the results show that it is technically and economically beneficial to apply SDN, and specifically the SplitArchitecture concept, to the carrier domain.

description: Functional foot trimming of dairy cows at dry-off to prevent claw lesions during the subsequent lactation is extensively practiced on most modern dairy operations. With increasing frequency, the feet of first-calf heifers are also trimmed in an attempt to achieve adequate conformation of the hoof to accommodate periparturient metabolic changes, minimize the consequences of transitioning to new time budgets, and, sometimes, to adapt to different walking surfaces. Although it is assumed that trimming the feet of heifers prior to calving follows a one-fits-all rule, research on the impact of this practice is lacking. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect that trimming the feet of first-calf heifers prior to parturition has on the incidence of claw lesions during the first lactation.

description: Cicer milkvetch (CMV; Astragalus cicer L.) is an alternative non-bloat legume to managing alfalfa. A 2-yr study was conducted to compare three CMV cultivars (Oxley II, Oxley, and Veldt) to AC Grazeland alfalfa (ALF; check forage) for nutritive value and animal preference. Each yr, replicate samples (n = 4) of each forage type were harvested late summer and analyzed for nutrient profile. Oxley II had lower (p < 0.05) fiber content than AC Grazeland, while Oxley and Veldt were similar (p = 0.48) to AC Grazeland for neutral detergent fibre (NDF), acid detergent fibre (ADF) and starch. In contrast, Oxley II had higher (p < 0.05) net energy for gain (NEg) than AC Grazeland, and Oxley and Veldt were similar (p > 0.05) to AC Grazeland for NEg. All three CMV varieties had similar levels of total digestible nutrients (TDN) (63.6 ± 0.6%; p > 0.05), but had higher (p = 0.01) energy content than AC Grazeland alfalfa (54.9 ± 1.4% TDN). Selenium (Se) concentrations were similar (p > 0.05) among CVM cultivars and less than 1 mg/kg DM, and no swainsonine or nitrotoxins were detected in the CMV cultivars. The Oxley II CMV tended (p = 0.06) to have a higher (139) relative feed value (RFV) compared to AC Grazeland (94), while Oxley and Veldt had moderate RFV values (128). Dry matter intake of Oxley II, Veldt, and Oxley CMV was 4, 18, and 28% greater than AC Grazeland, respectively. Based on the relative preference index (ratio of forage DMI to AC Grazeland alfalfa DMI), forage types are ranked as follows: AC Grazeland (1.0) < Veldt (1.2) < Oxley (1.4) < Oxley II (1.7). Study results suggest that CMV cultivars harvested late summer, maintained higher forage quality with greater preference compared to alfalfa

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.During fisheries surveys carried out in the bay of Biscay in 2000, 2001 and 2002, the CUFES (Continuous underway fish egg sampler) was operated, enabling continuous mapping of spatial distributions of fish eggs (sardine and anchovy). At large scale, a visual agreement exists between the spawning areas of the 2 species. However, locally, the spawning areas do not always overlap. To perform an objective analysis of spatial association between anchovy and sardine egg distributions, we developed a method based on association coefficients. Association/isolation levels are calculated for increasing observation resolution, and the critical scales of association between species are determined. Results from this analysis show that (1) the association between sardine and anchovy is less at fine spatial resolution than at coarse resolution, (2) the average scale of association between sardine and anchovy is around 50km, (3) the spawning area of sardine can encompass that of anchovy but the reverse is not observed, (4) the spatial extent of species spawning sites and their interactions have greatly varied during the 3 years studied, in parallel with important variations in the hydrology of the bay of Biscay continental shelf.
Resolving the Discrepancy of Distance to M60, a Giant Elliptical Galaxy in Virgo

description: There is a well-known discrepancy in the distance estimation for M60, a giant elliptical galaxy in Virgo: the planetary nebula luminosity function (PNLF) distance moduli for this galaxy are, on average, $~0.4$ mag smaller than the values based on the surface brightness fluctuation (SBF) in the literature. We present photometry of the resolved stars in an outer field of M60 based on deep F775W and F850LP images in the Hubble Space Telescope obtained as part of the Pure Parallel Program in the archive. Detected stars are mostly old red giants in the halo of M60. With this photometry we determine a distance to M60 using the tip of the red giant branch (TRGB). A TRGB is detected at $F850LP_{\rm TRGB}=26.70\pm0.06$ mag, in the luminosity function of the red giants. This value corresponds to $F814W_{0,\rm TRGB}=27.13\pm0.06$ mag and $QT_{\rm TRGB}=27.04\pm0.07$ mag, where $QT$ is a color-corrected F814W magnitude. From this we derive a distance modulus, $(m-M)_0=31.05\pm0.07{\rm(ran)}\pm0.06{\rm (sys)}$ ($d=16.23\pm0.50{\rm (ran)}\pm0.42{\rm (sys)}$ Mpc). This value is $0.3$ mag larger than the PNLF distances and $0.1$ mag smaller than the SBF distances in the previous studies, indicating that the PNLF distances to M60 in the literature have larger uncertainties than the suggested values.

description: This paper presents a methodology for evaluation of distortion in complex welded structures using an inherent strain approach. Although inherent strains were used by number of investigators earlier, they used time-consuming thermo-elastic-plastic analysis of near weld zone to obtain inherent strains. This analysis had to be performed separately for each different weld. Correlation between extensive experimental data on distortion and inherent strain is used in the work reported here and it avoids thermo-elastic-plastic analysis completely, making the FE analysis very fast. The examples taken from the literature, where experiments were performed on complex welded structure, are used as verification examples. The versatility of the method for use on any odd configuration and the accuracy of results obtained using this method is demonstrated.

description: The objective of this study reported in this research paper was to compare the lactation curves of the production of milk, fat, protein, percentages of fat and protein, and somatic cell score in purebred Holstein (H) cows and Swedish Red and White (SRW) - Holstein (SxH) crossbred cows in the south-central region of the province of Cordoba, Argentina. The data set consisted of 32847 herd-test records from 1244 purebred H cows and 310 SRW x H crossbred cows, from three commercial dairy farms with cows of first to fifth or more lactations. The curves were modeled using the fourth-order Legendre orthogonal polynomials. In this study, the data of production of milk, fat production, protein production, percentage of fat, percentage of protein and somatic cell score (SCS) were analyzed. Purebred H cows had significantly higher milk production, more fat production and higher protein production levels than did SxH crossbred cows. However, SxH crossbred cows produced milk that had a higher percentage of fat and a higher percentage protein than did purebred H cows. In none of the lactations did somatic cell score differ significantly between the two breed groups. The results of our study showed that, SxH crossbred cows had significantly higher percentages of fat and protein; however, purebred H cows were significantly superior to SxH crossbred cows for the production of 305-d milk, fat, and protein. Mammary health, expressed in SCS, did not differ significantly between the two breed groups. Thus, suggest that crossbreeding Holstein purebred cows with SRW bulls can improve the composition of milk solids without affecting mammary health and, in this way, compensate substantially for any potential loss in the production and/or quality of the milk of the crossbred cows compared to H purebred cows.

description: In this paper, we study instanton corrections in the N=2* gauge theory by using its description in string theory as a freely-acting orbifold. The latter is used to compute, using the worldsheet, the deformation of the Yang-Mills action. In addition, we calculate the deformed instanton partition function, thus extending the results to the non-perturbative sector of the gauge theory. As we point out, the structure of the deformation is extremely similar to the Omega-deformation, therefore confirming the universality of the construction. Finally, we comment on the realisation of the mass deformation using physical vertex operators by exploiting the equivalence between Scherk-Schwarz deformations and freely-acting orbifolds.

description: We demonstrate a specific method and technology for model-based testing of large software projects with the QuickCheck tool using property-based specifications. Our specifications are very precise, state-full models of the software under test (SUT). In our approach we define (a) formal descriptions of valid function call sequences (public API), (b) postconditions that check the validity of each call, and (c) call-out specifications that define and validate external system interactions (SUT calling external API). The QuickCheck tool automatically generates and executes tests from these specifications. Commercially, this method and tool have been used to test large parts of the industrially developed automotive libraries based on the Autosar standard. In this paper, we exemplify our approach with a circular buffer specified by Autosar, to demonstrate the capabilities of the model-based testing method of QuickCheck. Our example is small compared to the commercial QuickCheck models, but faithfully addresses many of the same challenges.

description: Although there is consensus that software defined networking and network functions virtualization overhaul service provisioning and deployment, the community still lacks a definite answer on how carrier-grade operations praxis needs to evolve. This article presents what lies beyond the first evolutionary steps in network management, identifies the challenges in service verification, observability, and troubleshooting, and explains how to address them using our Service Provider DevOps (SP-DevOps) framework. We compendiously cover the entire process from design goals to tool realization and employ an elastic version of an industry-standard use case to show how on-the-fly verification, software-defined monitoring, and automated troubleshooting of services reduce the cost of fault management actions. We assess SP-DevOps with respect to key attributes of software-defined telecommunication infrastructures both qualitatively and quantitatively, and demonstrate that SP-DevOps paves the way toward carrier-grade operations and management in the network virtualization era.

description: Mechanical systems can display topological characteristics similar to that of topological insulators. Here we report a large class of topological mechanical systems related to the BDI symmetry class. These are self-assembled chains of rigid bodies with an inversion center and no reflection planes. The particle-hole symmetry characteristic to the BDI symmetry class stems from the distinct behavior of the translational and rotational degrees of freedom under inversion. This and other generic properties led us to the remarkable conclusion that, by adjusting the gyration radius of the bodies, one can always simultaneously open a gap in the phonon spectrum, lock-in all the characteristic symmetries and generate a non-trivial topological invariant. The particle-hole symmetry occurs around a finite frequency, hence we can witness a dynamical topological Majorana edge mode. Contrasting a floppy mode occurring at zero frequency, a dynamical edge mode can absorb and store mechanical energy, potentially opening new applications of topological mechanics.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The anchovy population of the bay of Biscay displays an important variability both in abundance and spatial distribution. Using the population age and abundance structure derived from survey data, five areas, each containing a sub-population of distinct demographic feature, were defined. Demographic models for subdivided population offer an useful investigation tool to study the effect of varying demographic parameters on population growth. An age-specific matrix model was applied to a stable average population and in each area fertility, mortality and migratory rates at age were determined. The model analysis revealed the strong effect of first year mortality on population growth as well as the important weight of the sub-population located the Gironde River plume on the global population of the bay. The major role of migratory flows into restoring and maintaining a stable population structure was also discussed. Tentative conclusions on the population dynamic links with physical and hydrological feature of the bay of Biscay are drawn and possible future developments of the model are presented

description: The Universe is almost totally unexplored at low surface brightness levels. In spite of great progress in the construction of large telescopes and improvements in the sensitivity of detectors, the limiting surface brightness of imaging observations has remained static for about forty years. Recent technical advances have at last begun to erode the barriers preventing progress. In this Chapter we describe the technical challenges to low surface brightness imaging, describe some solutions, and highlight some relevant observations that have been undertaken recently with both large and small telescopes. Our main focus will be on discoveries made with the Dragonfly Telephoto Array (Dragonfly), which is a new telescope concept designed to probe the Universe down to hitherto unprecedented low surface brightness levels. We conclude by arguing that these discoveries are probably only scratching the surface of interesting phenomena that are observable when the Universe is explored at low surface brightness levels.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Sprat, Sprattus sprattus, is a key species in the Baltic Sea. Besides being a target species in the Baltic mixed clupeid fishery it is a major zooplanktivore and dominates, together with herring, one of four trophic levels in the Baltic Sea food web. Occasionally strong year classes of Baltic sprat are followed by a number of year classes below average. During the 1990s however a series of year classes above average were produced and the stock reached historically high levels with implications for the Baltic food web. Spawning stock biomass and recruitment are poorly related suggesting that environmental conditions have a great impact on the year-class strength. In the main spawning areas, i.e. the Baltic deep basins, egg development occurs at highly varying environmental conditions. In the present investigation egg specific gravity and variation in vertical egg distribution as well as egg survival in relation temperature- and oxygen conditions were studied. Incubation of eggs revealed significantly lower viable hatch at <5°C. Egg occurrence in relation to oxygen concentration suggested lower survival at <2 ml/l. Egg specific gravity averaged 1.00858±0.00116 g/cm3 during peak spawning but was significantly higher early in the season and significantly lower towards the end of the spawning period. In general, eggs kept buoyant in the deep layers at low oxygen conditions early in the season, developed at more favourable oxygen concentrations but at poor temperature conditions during peak spawning, and were distributed at both more favourable temperature and oxygen conditions towards the end of the spawning season. Using conditions at in average occurrence of eggs during peak spawning for the period 1970-2000 the relative importance of temperature and oxygen conditions was evaluated. Results suggested that variation in temperature is the most important factor affecting egg survival in the Bornholm basin (SD 25), that mainly oxygen conditions determine the survival rate in the Gotland basin (SD 28) whereas variation in both temperature and oxygen conditions influence survival in the Gdansk deep (SD 26). In conclusion, opportunities for egg survival are influenced by both temperature conditions following mild or severe winters as well as by frequency and magnitude of saline water inflows into the Baltic Sea.

description: Molybdenum ditelluride (MoTe$_2$) has attracted considerable interest for nanoelectronic, optoelectronic, spintronic, and valleytronic applications because of its modest band gap, high field-effect mobility, large spin-orbit-coupling splitting, and tunable 1T'/2H phases. However, synthesizing large-area, high-quality MoTe$_2$ remains challenging. The complicated design of gas-phase reactant transport and reaction for chemical vapor deposition or tellurization is nontrivial because of the weak bonding energy between Mo and Te. Here, we report a new method for depositing MoTe$_2$ that entails using physical vapor deposition followed by a post-annealing process in a Te-free atmosphere. Both Mo and Te were physically deposited onto the substrate by sputtering a MoTe$_2$ target. A composite SiO$_2$ capping layer was designed to prevent Te sublimation during the post-annealing process. The post-annealing process facilitated 1T'-to-2H phase transition and solid-phase crystallization, leading to the formation of high-crystallinity few-layer 2H-MoTe$_2$ with a field-effect mobility of ~10 cm$^2$/(V-s), the highest among all nonexfoliated 2H-MoTe$_2$ currently reported. Furthermore, 2H-MoS$_2$ and Td-WTe$_2$ can be deposited using similar methods. Requiring no transfer or chemical reaction of metal and chalcogen reactants in the gas phase, the proposed method is potentially a general yet simple approach for depositing a wide variety of large-area, high-quality, two-dimensional layered structures.

description: The recent discovery of exciton quantum emitters in transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) has triggered renewed interest of localized excitons in low-dimensional systems. Open questions remain about the microscopic origin previously attributed to dopants and/or defects as well as strain potentials. Here we show that the quantum emitters can be deliberately induced by nanobubble formation in WSe2 and BN/WSe2 heterostructures. Correlations of atomic-force microscope and hyperspectral photoluminescence images reveal that the origin of quantum emitters and trion disorder is extrinsic and related to 10 nm tall nanobubbles and 70 nm tall wrinkles, respectively. We further demonstrate that hot stamping results in the absence of 0D quantum emitters and trion disorder. The demonstrated technique is useful for advances in nanolasers and deterministic formation of cavity-QED systems in monolayer materials.
