To locate the genes controlling adaptability in bread wheat using AMMI (additive main effect and multiplicative interaction) model, twenty-one substitution lines derived from the parents Chinese Spring (recipient) and Chayan (donor) were used in a randomized complete block design with three replications in three different environments in the Agricultural College of Razi University, Kermanshah, ...

Many standard methods for modeling interaction in two way ANOVA require mn interaction parameters, where m and n are the number of rows and columns in the table. By viewing the interaction parameters as a matrix and performing a singular value decomposition, one arrives at the Additive Main EEects and Multiplicative Interaction (AMMI) model which is commonly used in agriculture. By using only t...

A user-friendly graphical data analysis to perform stability analysis of genotype x environmental interactions, using Tai's stability model and additive main effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) biplots, are presented here. This practical approach integrates statistical and graphical analysis tools available in SAS systems and provides user-friendly applications to perform complete sta...

UNLABELLED The body mass index (BMI) is used to assess nutritional status. The result in athletes may be overestimated due to increase in muscle mass. OBJECTIVE To assess the usefulness of fat mass index (FMI) and lean mass index (LMI) determination as indicators of nutritional status and to compare the results with BMI. MATERIAL AND METHODS We studied 28 amateur rugby players, male. After ...

The aim of the study was to determine the antifungal effects of the essential oils against fungal pathogen Botrytis cinerea the causal agent of grey mould disease of peach (Prunus persica L.) under in vitro and in vivo conditions. Treatments consisted of four essential oils (anise, ammi, ziziphora and cinnamon) and five concentrations (0, 200, 400, 600 and 800 μL.L).Results of in vitro experime...

PURPOSE A promising patient positioning technique is based on registering computed tomographic (CT) or magnetic resonance (MR) images to cone-beam CT images (CBCT). The extra radiation dose delivered to the patient can be substantially reduced by using fewer projections. This approach results in lower quality CBCT images. The purpose of this study is to evaluate a number of similarity measures ...

Additive main effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI), as well various AMMI-derived statistics, Genotype, Genotype × Environment Interaction (GGE) models were employed on 24 sugarcane genotypes planted during two seasons (2017–18, 2018–19) under different induced salinity stress environments using saline water irrigation (iw) viz., E1 (Normal iw crop season 2017–18), E2 2018–19), E3 (4 ds...
