as host to some of the world’s biggest emergencies and protracted crises, the eastern mediterranean region carries the largest burden of displaced populations globally. out of 58 million displaced persons worldwide, almost 30 million (52%) come from the region. syria is currently the world’s biggest producer of refugees and internally displaced persons, with more than 40% of the population now ...

Clerodendrum pholomidis is an important medicinal plant of Lamiaceae. Leaves, internode and petiole explants were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with combinations of 2, 4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2, 4-D), kinetin (kn) and indole-3 butyric acid (IBA). Leaf explants formed clusters of globular somatic embryos directly from epidermal cells within 12-15d when cultured ...

Sugarcane is one of the important cash crops for Pakistan and it has been primary source sugar production. used in our mills it’s by products are making cattle feed, soil manure etc. Present research experiment was conducted to assess 32 genotypes sugarcane collected from different farms cane yield through contributing traits natural field conditions. Traits like Cane height, girth, area leaf...

We run logit models to explain the variability of Pinus radiata structural lumber in 71 second and third unpruned logs. The response variable was proportion with a static modulus elasticity greater or equal than 8000 MPa, pMSG8+, explanatory variables were log volume, branch index, largest branch, internode wood basic density, acoustic velocity. average pMSG8+ volume 44,30 % 36,18 respectively....

Three controlled water supply treatments were applied to 1-year-old peach trees grown in root observation boxes. The treatments were: I(0), growth medium maintained at 50% field capacity; I(1), water supplied when daily net tree stem diameter change was negative or zero for 1 day; I(3) as for I(1) except that water was applied after net daily stem diameter change was negative or zero for 3 cons...

We investigate the probability distribution of the length of the second row of a Young diagram of size N equipped with Plancherel measure. We obtain an expression for the generating function of the distribution in terms of a derivative of an associated Fredholm determinant, which can then be used to show that as N → ∞ the distribution converges to the Tracy-Widom distribution [TW] for the secon...

An efficient plant regeneration protocol was developed from leaf and internode (stem) explants of Bacopa monniera L. on MS basal medium, supplemented with Cytokinins like BAP, KN, and TDZ used singly. The leaf cultures expressed maximum plant regeneration potential with 138.9 ± 0.50 shoots per explants on MS + 2.0 mg/ l BAP. The in vitro regenerated dwarf shoots were further elongated on MS med...
