Twenty four lines were crossed with two testers in an L x T mating design to estimate the combining ability for seed yield in sunflower. Non-additive genetic variance played a preponderant role in the inheritance of all the characters studied viz., days to 50 % flowering, days to maturity, plant height, head diameter, volume weight, hundred seed weight and seed yield per plant. The lines 27, 43...

ABSTRACT We present a magnetic activity study of GJ 436 using spectroscopic data from HARPS, spanning over 14 yr, and additional NARVAL, falling within the HARPS observations. Ca ii H&K, He i D3, Na doublet, H α, IRT triplets lines explore linear correlations between them. Using full set, we found indices α versus H&K & to correlate positively. From NARVAL covering one observing epo...

Nonsaturating light at 600 or 436 nanometers was used to excite specifically phycocyanin or chlorophyll a, respectively, both of which participate in light capture in photosystem II of Cyanidium caldarium. The ratio of absorption of light by phycocyanin to chlorophyll in photosystem II in this organism is >20 at 600 nanometers and </=0.2 at 436 nanometers.The distribution of the absorbed light ...
