Indirect Estimation of Genetic Structure and Gene Flow in Some Black Poplar (Populus Nigra) Clones using Leaf Morphophysiological Traits

Seed orchards with high hereditary qualities and the improvement studies used are of great importance. This study was carried out on individuals in a Boyabat grafted black pine seed orchard, Sinop. The morphological micromorphological measurements characteristics were performed needle samples taken from individuals, genetic diversity determined clonal basis. According to analysis variance appli...

This study was conducted to compare the agronomic performance of four elite cocoa clones (MCBC1, KKM22, KKM4 and PBC230) regenerated from staminode immature zygotic embryo culture with conventional grafted clones. From results, it found that clone propagated exhibited variations in fresh pod weight (339.6 g), individual seed (4.13 g) number flat beans per (4 beans) compared rest The genetic sta...

This work introduces the IB-score, a family of independence-based score functions for robust learning of Markov networks independence structures. Markov networks are a widely used graphical representation of probability distributions, with many applications in several fields of science. The main advantage of the IB-score is the possibility of computing it without the need of estimation of the n...

Objectives: To find out the frequency, maternal demographic characteristics and obstetric outcome of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy in a tertiary care hospital. Study design: Descriptive study Place and duration: This study was carried out at Gynae Unit I at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, Lahore, during a period of one year. Subjects and methods: All pregnant women admitted with hypertensive diso...

In recent years, hollow-core photonic bandgap fibers (HC-PBFs) have been demonstrated to be a promising technology for gas sensing. In particular, the long interaction path lengths available with these fibers are especially advantageous for the detection of weakly absorbing gases such as methane. In the near-infrared region, methane has the strongest absorption band, 2ν3, at 1670 nm. However, H...

We present a first physical application of Tsallis’ generalized entropy to the thermodynamics of self-gravitating systems. The stellar system confined in a spherical cavity of radius re exhibits an instability, so-called gravothermal catastrophe, which has been originally investigated by Antonov (Vest.Leningrad Gros.Univ. 7 (1962) 135) and Lynden-Bell & Wood (Mon.Not.R.Astron.Soc. 138 (1968) 49...

Avaliou-se a eficiência de diferentes tratamentos não industriais na preservação da madeira dois clones Eucalyptus urophylla contra o ataque térmitas. Os corpos prova foram submetidos aos seguintes tratamentos: carbonização superficial, pincelamento, banho quente-frio e imersão prolongada em solução CCB. Em seguida, expostos por 45 dias uma colônia térmitas do gênero Nasutitermes ensaio preferê...

When computing program slices on all variables in a system, we observed that many of these slices are the same. This leads to the question: Are we looking at software clones? We discuss the genesis of this phenomena and present some of the data observations that led to the question. The answer to our query is not immediately clear. We end by presenting arguments both pro and con. Supporting the...
