Layoffs, Lemons, Race and Gender This paper expands on Gibbons and Katz (1991) by looking at how the difference in wage losses across plant closing and layoff varies with race and gender. We find that the differences between white males and the other groups are striking and complex. The lemons effect of layoff holds for white males as in Gibbons and Katz model, but not for the other three demog...

Potential inhibitory effect of Citrus lemon (lemon) and Citrus sinensis (orange) on lipophilic, yeast like fungus, Malassezia furfur which causes Pityriasis versicolor, chronic superficial fungal disease of the skin have been studied by using two different methods: disc diffusion and microdilution methods. In screening of lemon and orange oil by disc diffusion method, the diameter of inhibition...

Background Dengue fever is a serious public health issue in Pakistan for many years. Globally plants have been reported to contain compounds with insecticidal properties. These properties have been demonstrated more recently on the larval stages of mosquitoes. Therefore, Citrus cultivar seeds were evaluated for larvicidal potential against the primary dengue vector Aedes aegypti. Methods Extr...

salinity is one of the most important limiting factors for crops, because of most agronomic and horticultural crops are sensitive to salinity. on the other hands, considerable lands of the world were affected by salinity and they are increasing day by day. an experiment was conducted with five levels of irrigation water salinity in soilless culture and greenhouse condition to evaluate the effec...

The elaboration and definition of “metabolic fingerprints” can subsidize both the identification determination plant varieties, as well increase in knowledge about responses adaptations plants to external and/or internal factors. lemon tree (Citrus limon Burm.) is one most important crops Spanish southeast often consumed around world. Although study characterization its fruits are common due ec...

conclusions these results indicated that aqueous extract of lemon verbena (≥ 100 mg/kg) has undesirable effects on memory; however, understanding the underling mechanisms needs further investigation. background lemon verbena (lippia citriodora) has been known to have various pharmacologic activities. objectives lemon verbena leaves are used to make an herbal tea, which is traditionally used for...

BACKGROUND Affections are thought to regulate pain perception through the descending pain inhibitory system in the central nervous system. In this study, we examined in mice the affective change by inhalation of the lemon oil, which is well used for aromatherapy, and the effect of lemon odor on pain sensation. We also examined the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) and descending pain inhibitory s...

tolerance of two apple rootstocks (gami and m26) was evaluated at different concentrations of sodium chloride in vitro conditions. micro plants grown under ms medium culture were transferred to knoudson–c culture medium devoid of na and cl ions. concentrations of nacl in the knoudson-c culture medium were 0, 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 mm/l. six weeks after culturing, data were collected. the result...

GF677 rootstock (peach ×almond) is an important rootstock for peach. It was produced by Bernhard in French at Grand Farad Research Centre in 1965. The present study focused on the effect of some PGRs on propagation and root induction on GNH medium as part of providing an applicable protocol for micro-propagation of mentioned rootstock. Results indicated that BAP at concentration of 0.5 mg/l plu...
