The study aimed to appraise the effect of different air pollutants viz. SO2, NOx, SPM and RSPM on biophysiological as well as yield characteristics of wheat and mustard plants grown at different sites in the urban and industrial areas of Haridwar City. The ambient levels of air pollutants were lowest at site 2 and 4 and hence these sites were treated as control sites for comparing the response ...

in this work, fresh pomegranate peel of three dominant iranian cultivaris was extracted by soxhlet extraction method via different four solvents. the extracts were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography (hplc), using ultraviolet-visible spectrometric detection. in this study, the extraction yields and presence of seven phytoestrogenic compounds, two tannic acids and their quantities...

The calyx of Held exhibits fast glutamatergic neurotransmission at high rates with low temporal jitter and has adapted specialized synaptic mechanisms to support its functional demands. We report the presence in calyces of an atypical arrangement of subcellular organelles, called the mitochondria-associated adherens complex (MAC). We demonstrate that MACs are located adjacent to synapses and co...

The calyx of Held synapse is a giant axosomatic synapse that has a fast relay function within the sound localization circuit of the brainstem. In the adult, each principal neuron of the medial nucleus of the trapezoid body (MNTB) is contacted by a single calyx terminal. In rodents, the calyx of Held synapse forms around the third postnatal day (P3). Here we studied the developmental changes in ...

Effect of different nitrogenous fertilizers on the growth and yield of three years old tea (Camellia sinensis L) plants was investigated at National Tea Research Institute, Shinkiari, (Mansehra) during 2005-06. The nitrogenous fertilizers used were ammonium sulphate, calcium ammonium nitrate, urea and nitrophos along with control receiving no fertilizer. All the nitrogenous fertilizers were app...

this experiment was conducted with the objective of evaluating the performance sage (salvia officinalis l.) in different agroecology of ethiopia for morpho-agronomic and chemical traits at wondo genet, hawassa, qoqa and holleta for two years from 2011/2012 to 2012/2013 cropping seasons. data on plant height, branch number/plant, fresh leaf weight/plant, fresh stem weight/plant, above ground bio...

Insect mushroom bodies, best known for their role in olfactory processing, also receive sensory input from other modalities. In crickets and grasshoppers, a tritocerebral tract containing afferents from palp mechanosensory and gustatory centers innervates the accessory calyx. The accessory calyx is uniquely composed of Class III Kenyon cells, and was shown by immunohistochemistry to be present ...

A calyx (multiplicative lattice) is a complete lattice endowed with the structure of a monoid such that multiplication by an element is a left adjoint functor of complete lattices (equivalently, a left adjoint functor which preserves colimits). Calyxes are a generalization of the set of ideals of a ring, which form a complete lattice under intersection and summation; in conjunction with the nat...
