This investigation was carried out at the experimental farm of Medicinal and Aromatic plants Research Department, Horticulture Research, Dokki, Giza during two successive seasons of 2009/2010 and 2010/2011.The research aimed to study the effect of compost rates (2,4and 8 ton/fed) and some biofertilizers (Azotobacter Chroococcum, Bacillus megaterium, Bacillus circulanse) alone or all strains in ...

An incompetent mutant (4S Com(-)) does not release competence-inducing factor (CF) into the culture medium and is not infected with TP-1C phage deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) unless CF is added to the transfection assay. A TP-1C phage-resistant mutant (4S Ton-r) releases relatively large amounts of CF into the culture medium but is not infected with TP-1C phage DNA, even in the presence of CF. The...

Systems that perform \generalization-to-N" in explanation-based learning generalize a proof tree by generalizing the shape of the tree, rather than simply changing constants to variables. This paper introduces a formal framework which can be used either to characterize or to specify the outputs of an algorithm for generalizing number. The framework consists of two desiderata, or desired propert...

An index of forage quality, milk per ton of forage DM (Undersander et al., 1993), was developed using an energy value of forage predicted from ADF content and DMI potential of forage predicted from NDF content as its basis. The milk per ton quality index was later modified for corn silage (Schwab et al., 2003) using an energy value derived from summative equations (Schwab et al., 2003; NRC, 200...

In BtuB, the Escherichia coli TonB-dependent transporter for vitamin B12, substrate binding to the extracellular surface unfolds a conserved energy coupling motif termed the Ton box into the periplasm. This transmembrane signaling event facilitates an interaction between BtuB and the inner-membrane protein TonB. In this study, continuous-wave and pulse electron paramagnetic resonance in a nativ...

Under the situation that single prediction can’t meet the accuracy requirements, combined forecasting method is usually the first choice. Using the history data of domestic oil products consumption, by optimized combination of grey forecasting GM(1, 1) model and artificial neural network, the combined forecasting model was built. It can be getting from the combined forecasting model that on the...

Objective: In this study investigated effects of different amounts of pelleted manure with urea and micro elements on yield and seed quality of medicinal plants, pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo var. styriaca). Methods: The animal manure and urea as pellet with four levels (150 Kg urea, 50 Kg urea + 3.5 ton animal manure, 100 (Kg) urea+ 1.5 ton animal manure and 150 (Kg) urea+1.5 ton animal man...
