Two species of the cumacean genus Atlantocuma from the southern coast of Honshu, Japan, 781–861 m depth, A. gamoi sp. nov. and A. ojii sp. nov., and Pseudopicrocuma japonicum gen et sp. nov. from Nansei Islands, 566–1769 m depth, are described. Atlantocuma gamoi is characterized by (1) carapace elevated in preparatory and ovigerous female, (2) antero-lateral angle of carapace with 3 teeth in fe...

Nowadays, scientists and researchers working on polymer composites are paying much attention to the discovery of prospective plant fibers in order build a promising fiber-reinforced composite. The present study investigated efficacy using novel Furcraea selloa K. Koch peduncle fiber reinforced composites, specific composite characterization was done explore absolute length weight ratio accompli...

(1000mgat days0 and 14). She continued to experienceworseninglowerextremityweakness.Eventually,shereceived6plasmapheresis treatments withminimal improvement. During the entire periodof follow-up at our center, she required 20 to 30mg daily of oral prednisone. Neurological examination prior to the onset of HiCy therapy revealed symmetrically reduced arm abduction (4−/5) and hip flexion strength ...

abstract this reasearch was conducted to study the phenotypic diversity of thymus kotschyanus populations. seeds were collected from natural inhabitats (guilan, mazandaran, west azarbaijan, semnan and qazvin) and planted in qom reasearch station in 2007. a number of some such different morphological and phenological traits of the plants as plant,s height, leaf length, leaf width, oil content, i...

Nandus banshlaii, sp. nov. described from the Banshlai River of West Bengal. This species is distinguished all its congeners in having a golden brown body live and combination characters like longest head snout length (44.28% SL 35.58% HL respectively) two Indian containing largest eye diameter (22.22% HL), pre-dorsal (47.16% SL), shortest pectoral fin (14.60% SL) smallest dorsal base (45.53% S...

An oreosomatid of the genus Allocyttus McCulloch, 1914 is fished commercially on Emperor Seamounts. However, species’ identity uncertain, as taxonomy species seas around Japan, where names verrucosus Gilchrist, 1906 (type locality: off South Africa) and A. folletti Myers, 1960 California) have both been used. From its anticipated susceptibility to over-exploitation, it urgent establish correct ...

The pepper genotypes taken in the study (Bogdan, Ișalnița 85V, L-28 and L-15) were subjected to an analysis of variability main quantitative characteristics fruit (fruit weight, height diameter, pericarp thickness, shape index, number seminal lobes, peduncle length diameter). registered biometric data statistically processed, calculating for each analyzed character mean (x̄), standard deviation ...

The aim of this study was to estimate the genetic divergence between African cowpea lines from the Cowpea Germplasm Bank of Embrapa Meio-Norte, Brazil. The morphoagronomic diversity of 57 cowpea lines was assessed using multivariate analysis. The germplasm was evaluated in August 2009 using a randomized block design with three replications based on the following traits: number of pods per pedun...

AIM The function of the circle of Willis, an arterial polygon, is to protect the brain from ischemia. The aim of this study is to define the structural characteristics of the circle of Willis within the Turkish adult population, along with variations and arteries involved in the measurement of diameters and lengths on cadavers. MATERIAL AND METHODS The circle of Willis was evaluated in 100 fr...

In the present investigation attempts were made to estimate genetic parameters for yield and its components in 315 genotypes of cocoyam collected from thirteen aroid growing districts. Plant height, petiole length, petiole breadth, leaf number, leaf length, leaf breadth, LAI, Inflorescence length, peduncle length, spathe length, spathe breadth, corm length, corm breadth, cormel number, cormel l...
