Andrographolides, the diterpene lactones, are major bioactive phytochemicals which could be found in different parts of the medicinal herb Andrographis paniculata. A number of such compounds namely andrographolide (AG), neoandrographolide (NAG), and 14-deoxy-11,12-didehydroandrographolide (DDAG) have already attracted a great deal of attention due to their potential therapeutic effects in hard-...

in order to analyze general and specific combining abilities and gene effects in sunflower for some agronomic traits, five cms lines and four restorer lines (tester) were crossed in a line × tester scheme. hybrids were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replications in the agriculture research station, university of tabriz, in 2009 and 2010 growing seasons. plant height,...

The -514 polymorphism in the hepatic lipase gene (LIPC) is associated with decreased hepatic lipase activity. In the present study, the interaction between body mass index (BMI), the -514 polymorphism, and hepatic lipase activity was examined in 118 white men and in 51 African American men. BMI was significantly positively correlated with hepatic lipase activity in both populations. BMI was sim...

Traditional rice varieties having high flavonoids and anthocyanin traits were hybridized to high-yielding quality cultivars assess their combining ability. Significant variation was observed among parents hybrids for the studied. The predominance of non-additive gene action single plant yield, total flavonoid content, amylose whereas, trait registered additive in study. genotypes ADT 37 (R) 45 ...

in order to study the gene actions and heritability of the physical and chemical characteristics associated with appearance and cooking quality of rice grain, generation mean analysis was performed using a cross between two iranian rice cultivars, deylamani and sepidroud, having different quality characters. seeds of the parental lines and f1, f2, bc1 and bc2 generations were grown in randomize...

Abstract We connect the theorems of Rentschler [18] and Dixmier [10] on locally nilpotent derivations automorphisms polynomial ring A 0 Weyl algebra 1 , both over a field characteristic zero, by establishing same type results for family algebras A h = 〈<...

This paper concerns the interpretation of equilibrium in non-additive beliefs in two-player normal form games. We argue that such equilibria involve beliefs and actions which are consistent with a lack of common knowledge of the game. Our argument rests on representation results which show that different notions of equilibrium in games with non-additive beliefs may be reinterpreted as equilibri...

No studies were located that examined health effects in humans or animals exposed to threeor fourmembered mixtures of the five components of concern. No PBPK models were found for threeor fourmembered mixtures of these chemicals. The following subsections present evaluations of health effects data and discussions of mechanistic information pertinent to the joint toxic action of each pair of com...
