RESUMO
Higgs bosons can be searched for in the channels pp macro/pp-->tt macro H + X at the Fermilab Tevatron and the Cern Large Hadron Collider (LHC). We have calculated the QCD corrections to these processes in the standard model at next-to-leading order. The higher-order corrections reduce the renormalization and factorization scale dependence considerably and stabilize the theoretical predictions for the cross sections. At the central scale mu = (2m(t)+M(H))/2 the properly defined K factors are slightly below unity for the Tevatron (K approximately 0.8) and slightly above unity for the LHC (K approximately 1.2).
RESUMO
Thirty Brassica napus lines have been developed through interspecific hybridization of B. oleracea and B. campestris lines with defined S-allele constitutions. These lines, which represent 29 different S-allele combinations, were tested in a diallel of test-pollinations to determine the activity of the introgressed S-alleles and intergenomic dominance relationships. Some consistent trends were observed: B. oleracea S-alleles high in the dominance series (e.g. S8, S14, S29) were always active in the resynthesized B. napus lines, whereas recessive S-alleles (S2, S15) lost their activity in some test combinations. The B. campestris S-alleles were active in most cases, although 2 alleles were partially inactivated by the recessive B. oleracea allele S15.
