This is particularly timely, given the imminent completion of research under the European Commission's seventh framework programme and the current launch of the eighth programme as Horizon 2020.
The parasitoid wasp N. vitripennis provides an excellent system to do so, given the recent completion of its genome sequence (Werren et al. 2010).
Similarly, the fact that some expected impacts have not become a reality could simply be a temporal issue given the recent completion of the projects, or as a result of the lack of follow-up studies to identify final outcomes.
Given the recent completion of the chicken genome project [ 15], the adaptation and use of shRNA expression systems for RNAi in the chicken will be important for ensuing functional genomics studies.
However, given the excellent completion rates in this study there would appear to be scope to test the distribution of the tool on a variety of platforms including internet and mobile devices.
Given the recent completion of its full genome sequence (Werren et al. 2010), the parasitic wasp Nasonia vitripennis offers an excellent opportunity to study regulatory and structural genetic changes underlying trait regression in parasitoids.
OH's completion rate of 32% is comparable to the 34% reported for non-Aboriginal residential rehabilitation services in Australia (Darke, Campbell & Popple, 2012), but it is possible this could be improved given the 62% completion rate reported in another study (Sung, Belenko & Feng, 2001).
Second, accuracy may be impacted by any incentives given the respondents for completion of the survey.
Those who decided to participate in the survey signed a consent form and were then given the questionnaire for completion.
This is borne out by the considerably greater completion rates that are being consistently reported for the shorter R&R2 programs, the impact of which should not be underestimated in offenders given the association between completion rates, lower reconviction rates and ultimately public protection.
