root rot caused by fusarium verticillioides is one of the most important rice diseases in ilam. in order to determine genetic diversity, 56 samples were collected from rice paddies of different regions in ilam province. molecular test was carried out with a set of five pairs of ssr primers after purification and identification of isolates. the ssr primers amplified a total 26 alleles. the avera...

one of the sacred water tank brahmsarovar, at kurukshetra in india was studied to assess the impact of mass bathing during new moon day (called as amavasya in india) in terms of physico-chemical and biological characteristics. overall water quality index was calculated using online calculator. results have revealed significant (p

In their recent "Perspective", HUGHES and PRIDE [1] described the carbon monoxide (CO) transfer factor (TL,CO) as the product of two primary measurements: alveolar volume (VA) and CO transfer coefficient KCO (TL/ VA). VA is primary in that it has a physiological identity. However, FORSTER [2] has pointed out that in the context of the measurement of transfer factor, the volume is merely that of...

The identity of patients must be protected when patient data are shared. The two most commonly used models to protect identity of patients are L-diversity and K-anonymity. However, existing work mainly considers data sets with a single sensitive attribute, while patient data often contain multiple sensitive attributes (e.g., diagnosis and treatment). This article shows that although the K-anony...

When Tucker’s congruence coefficient is used to assess the similarity of factor interpretations, it is desirable to have a critical congruence level less than unity that can be regarded as indicative of identity of the factors. The literature only reports rules of thumb. The present article repeats and broadens the approach used in the study by Haven and ten Berge (1977). It aims to find a crit...

The temperature coefficient of the refractive index, (dn/dT)p, has been measured for deuterium oxide. The observed values are considered together with those previously obtained for water. The experimental data cannot be explained with the best known models of molecular polarizability, at least in the approximation generally used in these models. Therfore they are discussed on the basis of a dif...

in this study, the genetic diversity among paecilomyces variotti isolaes was investigated. sampling was performed from pistachio garden in seven geographical region of kerman province during 2011-2012. seventy isolates were identified as p. variotii species using morphological criteria. the genetic diversity among 20 selected isolates was assayed by variation at ssr marker bands using 12 pair p...

Quantitative study of species diversity across different land use units and districts is important to document status of local plant biodiversity, to evaluate impact of management and for planning future management. This study aimed at determining impacts of land use units on species diversity and spatial distribution of species in two districts of Borana zone, Oromia, Ethiopia. Stratification ...
