the use of resistant cultivars remains one of the most reliable methods to manage the pests. in this study the mechanism of resistance in 10 lines of rice for 3 kinds of resistance (antixenoses, antibioses and tolerance) was studied. the egg set of striped stem borer on the leaf of considered lines for antixenoses and larva weight mean and survival percentage of larva were evaluated for antibio...

Design of 3D scaffolds that can facilitate proper survival, proliferation, and differentiation of progenitor cells is a challenge for clinical applications involving large connective tissue defects. Cell migration within such scaffolds is a critical process governing tissue integration. Here, we examine effects of scaffold pore diameter, in concert with matrix stiffness and adhesivity, as indep...

Ülkemizin ekolojik ve ekonomik açıdan önemli ağaç türlerinden birisi Kızılçam (Pinus brutia Ten.)’dır. Bu nedenle türün sürdürülebilir yönetimi planlaması için hasılat büyüme modellerine ihtiyaç vardır. Hasılat modellerinin en bileşenlerinden de hacim tahminleridir. Ülkemizde tahminleri genellikle tek girişli tabloları kullanılarak yapılmaktadır. Ancak söz konusu kullanılarak, güvenilir doğru y...

Stem diameter at breast height (DBH) and tree height (H) are commonly used measures of tree growth. We examined patterns of height growth and diameter growth along a stem using a 20-year record of an even-aged hinoki cypress (Chamaecyparis obtusa (Siebold & Zucc.) Endl.) stand. In the region of the stem below the crown (except for the butt swell), diameter growth rates (ΔD) at different heights...

A novel double-layer collagen membrane with unequal pore sizes in each layer was designed and tested in this study. The inner, loose layer has about 100-μm-diameter pores, while the outer, compact layer has about 10-μm-diameter pores. In a rat model of incomplete spinal cord injury, a large number of neural stem cells were seeded into the loose layer, which was then adhered to the injured side,...
