Asymmetric Segregation: The Shape of Things to Come?

بررسی تجمیع ژن های مهم کنترل کننده صفات کمی و کیفی در برنج با استفاده از نشانگرهای مولکولی (MAS)

    Different characters influence the marketing of rice in which aroma, amylose content, gelatinization temperature, gel consistency and grain shape are the most important ones. Two local quality (Shastak and Domsia) and two improved rice varieties (Nemat and Fajrr) were used to pyramid the qualitative genes into new released Ghaem variety through classical methods and marker aided selection. ...

Effects of the asymmetric behavior of the shape memory alloy on nonlinear dynamic responses of thick sandwich plates with embedded SMA wires

In the present article, the dynamic behavior of sandwich plates with embedded shape memory alloy (SMA) wires is evaluated for two cases wherein (i) the stress-strain curve of the superelastic behavior of the SMA wires is symmetric and (ii) the mentioned curve is non-symmetric. A modified version of Brinson’s constitutive model is proposed and used. The high non-linearity in the behavior stems f...

A Mutual Authentication Method for Internet of Things

Today, we are witnessing the expansion of various Internet of Things (IoT) applications and services such as surveillance and health. These services are delivered to users via smart devices anywhere and anytime. Forecasts show that the IoT, which is controlled online in the user environment, will reach 25 billion devices worldwide by 2020. Data security is one of the main concerns in the IoT. ...

Evaluation of Models to Describe Temporal Growth in Local Chickens of Ghana

The logistic, Gompertz, Richards and asymmetric logistic growth curve models were fitted to body weight data of local Ghanaian chickens and French SASSO T44 chickens. All four growth models provided good fit for each sex by genotype growth data with R2 values ranging from 86.7% to 96.7%. The rate constant parameter, k, ranged between 0.137 and 0.271 and were significantly different from zero fo...
