Abstract: Short Tandem Repeats are currently used by law enforcement and others, for example, for the identification of individuals by DNA matching. A method is described herein that uses WPD to classify and identify repeating sequences in nucleotide sequences from the position and frequency information contained within nucleotide sequences. This decomposition allows for the quick classification of nucleotide sequences (i.e., reads) into two different classes, including, for example, one class that contains sequencer reads that contain a repeat motif with non-repeat sequence on either flank, and another class that contains sequencer reads that do not contain any repeat sequence.

Abstract: This invention relates to a new and distinct variety of strawberry plant named ‘FPS-14_540-041’. This new strawberry plant named ‘FPS-14_540-041’ is primarily adapted to the growing conditions of the central coast of California, and is primarily characterized by its red fruit color, medium fruit size, and long conical fruit shape; good fruit flavor, good skin firmness, with seeds typically held even with to slightly above the surface; very smooth fruit surface, even in color, with a slight difference in size between primary and secondary fruit; unique trait of a large first flush, followed by an even larger second flush of fruit in the late season; medium plant size, upright in habit with and medium density; medium to dark green foliage color, and medium foliage size; and fruiting trusses typically held above to level with the plant, with low to medium pubescence.

This new strawberry plant named ‘FPS-14_552-008’ is primarily adapted to the growing conditions of the central coast of California, and is primarily characterized by its red fruit color, medium fruit size, and conical fruit shape; excellent fruit flavor, medium skin firmness, with seeds typically held even with the surface; very smooth fruit surface, even in color, with a slight difference in size between primary and secondary fruit; medium to large plant size, upright in habit with medium density; medium yellow green foliage color, and medium to large foliage size; and fruiting trusses typically held level with to below the plant, with medium to high pubescence.

Abstract: This invention relates to a new and distinct variety of strawberry plant named ‘FPS-15.2016-31’. This new strawberry plant named ‘FPS-15.2016-31’ is primarily adapted to the growing conditions of the central coast of California, and is primarily characterized by its red fruit color, medium fruit size and conical fruit shape; very good fruit flavor, very good skin firmness, with seeds held even with the surface; very smooth fruit surface, even fruit color, with none or very slight difference between primary and secondary fruits; plant that provides a large first flower flush, then follows up throughout the summer with a small second flush of flowers; large plant size, upright plant habit, with medium density and strong vigor; and stolons with very strong anthocyanin intensity, medium pubescence, and an upward attitude.
