		Data for plasma loge ý-lac and loge ·-lg concentrations were adjusted for date of calving and (in the Ruakura herd) for stocking rate and age of cow, and regressions and correlations were estimated with subsequent lactation yields of milk, milkfat, protein and lactose (also adjusted for known fixed effects including lactation length).
		Correlations of adjusted loge ý-lac with adjusted yields in the Ruakura herd were 0.33 (P<0.05) for milk, 0.29 (P<0.05) for milkfat, 0.25 for protein and 0.32 (P<0.05) for lactose.
		After adjusting yields additionally in the Ruakura herd for live weight, correlations of adjusted loge ý-lac with adjusted yields ranged from 0.35 to 0.40 (mostly P<0.01), and residual standard deviations of yield were further reduced (e.g.

		Significant among them are the Ruakura Research Centre (the largest Agricultural and Horticultural research facility in the Southern Hemisphere), Landcare, National Institute for Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA Ecosystems), and the Institute of Professional Legal Studies.
		The university is co-located with Ruakura, a center for research in the primary industries.
		Due to the proximity of the Waikato River and Lake Karapiro the university has excellent rowing teams and competes against University of Oxford and University of Cambridge in alternating years on the Waikato River in The Great Race.

	Morris & Wheeler—Genetic studies of cattle twinning rate
		The Ruakura herd had a mean annual twin calving rate over all years (1985–2000) of 11.2%, and in recent years (1998–2000) of 13.3%.
		One of the most elite cow-families in the herd (12 cows spanning five generations since the foundation cow) had an annual twin calving rate averaging 31% (seven of the cows producing at least one twin set in their lifetime), while another family of seven cows included three sets of 3-times twinning cows.
		Heritabilities of annual and lifetime twin calving in the Ruakura herd (cows born in 1983–1998) were 0.081 ± 0.031 and 0.25 ± 0.07, respectively.

		In particular it is the expectation of the Ruakura AEC that the project will involve an expert supervising large animal veterinarian to monitor the progress of lambs in utero, and take steps to terminate a pregnancy and/or determine a humane end point where suffering to any animal is in prospect.
		Nevertheless the Committee is satisfied that the Ruakura Animal Ethics Committee has considered all the issues that arise in consequence of the embryos being modified.
		Controls on this application ensure that the husbandry of the animals shall be overseen by an experienced large animal veterinarian who has authority to terminate the pregnancies or the trial, should it be necessary to avoid unacceptable suffering.

	Bee research in peril - New Zeland
		News that New Zealand's bee resarch unit at Ruakura had missed out on major funding has set beekeepers and related industries buzzing.
		As the varroa bee mite creeps down the North Island and will almost certainly cross Cook Strait in time, industry sources fear the effects if the unit is closed before completing its research.
		HortResearch chief executive Paul McGilvary said FRST scored funding applications on a competitive points system and although he was told the bee research unit had scored very well, it failed to make the grade for funding.

		Another possible form of control involves management of the pasture during the spring and summer to produce conditions least favourable for the growth of the fungus; in particular, a reduction of the dead litter on which it grows.
		In some experiments along these lines at Ruakura Research Station incidence of the disease has been lowered, but so far no generally applicable reliable procedures have been established.
