To develop an ef®cient procedure for plant regeneration from leaf-derived callus of Lavandula vera DC, the production of multiple shoots and the formation of roots from these shoots were studied. When calli were cultured in a medium with 4.0 10ÿ7 M N-(2-chloro-4-pyridyl)-N0phenylurea (CPPU), urea-type cytokinin, multiple shoots were obtained from the greenish surface of the callus ef®ciently at...

We give simple necessary and su cient conditions for consistency and asymptotic optimality of a root to the likelihood equation. Based on the results, a large sample test is proposed for detecting whether a given root is consistent and asymptotically e cient, a property that is often possessed by the global maximizer of the likelihood function. A number of examples, and the connection between t...

Humic acid is a biochemical constituent of humus and increases root biomass and shoot growth by improving absorption of nutrients. In order to study the effects of humic acid on root and shoot growth and leaf nutrient contents of pistachio seedlings, an experiment was conducted of completely randomized design with five treatments in three replications. In the first step seeds of Pistacia vera c...

Several thermosensitive transient receptor potential channels (transient receptor potential vanilloid type-1, -3; transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily A, member 1) have been implicated in itch. In contrast, the role of transient receptor potential vanilloid type-4 (TRPV4) in itch is unknown. Therefore, we investigated if TRPV4, a temperature-sensitive cation channel, plays an ...

This study was conducted in the Department of Nematology, College Agriculture, OUAT. The experiment designed using completely randomized design (CRD) with different combinations root knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita) and leguminosarum strain rhizobium three field pea germplasms, which are resistant, moderately resistant susceptible against infection. Different combination interaction betwee...

As the multimedia content of the Web increases techniques to automatically classify this content become more important. In this paper we present a system to classify audio les collected from the Web. The system classi es any audio le as belonging to one of three categories: `speech', `music' and `other'. To classify the audio les, we use the technique of Fisher kernels. The technique as propose...

the sugar beet plant has a conical-shaped root and at harvest the tap-root breaks which remains in the soil. as a result, a significant amount of root yield and consequently sugar content is lost. furthermore, the field soil remains in the root fissures and is carried with the root to sugar factory. in rhizomania and nematode-infested areas, the soil movement causes the disease wide spread. in ...
