Microsatellite variation in the Australian dingo

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to analyze microsatellite differences in Australian dingoes. Sixteen dingoes and 16 dogs of mixed breed were typed for 14 microsatellites. Results indicated that the amount of variation in the Australian dingo was less than in domestic dogs. In addition, the number of alleles in the dingo was significantly smaller. A size difference of 1 bp in allele classes between dog and dingo was determined.

Overdubbed

Article Abstract:

The advent of high-tech recording consoles enabled musicians to reproduce and record virtually any sound, be it man-made or from a musical instrument. However, the digitalization of sound is reducing the art of making music into a complex and utterly non-creative procedure of manipulating computers.

Are we running dry?

Article Abstract:

Water will become scarce as the Earth's population reaches almost 12 billion in the next 50 to 90 years from 1998. In the US, California, Florida and Texas face the most immediate water shortages. Conservation, desalination plants, and overpopulation and pollution need to be addressed.
