The red-eyed vireo is widely distributed across Canada in the boreal forest. Collections were made at seven localities from central Alberta to central Quebec and potential variation in the olive-green dorsal plumage was analyzed with a recording spectrophotometer equipped with a reflectance attachment. The trichromatic coefficients x (dominant wavelength) and y (purity) and Y (the percentage luminous reflection or brightness) were subjected to an overall analysis of variance, and means were treated with Gabriel's sums of squares simultaneous test procedure. Significant differences were demonstrated among locality samples for Y and x but the STP revealed discordant variation among locality samples, i.e. no east–west clines in character variation were shown. Regressions of Y and x on precipitation were nearly significant and could suggest a weak clinal relationship between color and this climatic variable as predicted by the ecogeographic rule of Gloger.

The relative persistence capacity in mouse spleen of 10 and 9 BCG substrains from liquid and dried vaccines, respectively, was evaluated in two studies. Recoverable BCG colony counts from mouse spleen were determined at given days on solid medium in the two studies during a period of 1–360 and 1–345 days, respectively, after the intravenous BCG vaccination, performed with two different viable units. From 36 000 (study 1) and 21 600 (study 2) recoverable BCG colony counts, 180 and 108 mean relative persistence capacity values were estimated to test the residual virulence during the follow-up time, using computerized statistical analysis. The early and late trends of mean relative persistence capacity of the BCG substrains in mouse spleen were tested by linear regression analysis and analysis of variance and covariance; then with ranked adjusted group mean relative persistence capacity, Gabriel's simultaneous test procedure was performed for multiple comparison to diminish type 1 error in statistical inference and in objective interpretation of the experimental results. The associations of the ranked mean relative persistence capacity of the BCG substrains at the different sacrifice days of mice were also analyzed by Kendall's test of concordance. The early, late, and overall relative persistence capacity reflects the residual virulence of the BCG substrains and provides information on the required protective efficacy (immunogenicity) and adverse reactions (reactogenicity), allowing the appropriate vaccination dose, expressed in viable units of the substrain used, to be determined. Key words: BCG substrains, residual virulence, relative persistence in mouse spleen, multiple comparison.

Smart bearings incorporating self-powered sensors and wireless data communications with intelligence in monitoring bearing conditions can help to detect early faults in aero-engine bearings. This paper presents the challenges in design and development of a sensing system with compact and low-power consumption sensors and the procedures for sensor performance evaluation under the requirements of aerospace standard. Industrial standard DO160 testing is necessary for preliminary testing of the smart sensing system prior to being installed in aero-engine, thus a laboratory test procedure has been developed for sensor performance evaluation for the smart aero-engine bearings in this project. As a case study, this paper presents the details and results of the accelerometer evaluation following the requirements in DO160.
