Abstract A great number of plant residues remain in the soil after harvesting almost all types agricultural crops. At same time, such mostly consist cellulose, which can enrich with feed sources for further However, plants are not able to use cellulose itself, and thus importance is given various microorganisms involved cleavage more simple compounds. Within framework this work, cellulolytic ab...

Fast Breeder Test Reactor (FBTR) operating at IGCAR since 1985 is testimony of maturity India has attained in Fast Breeder Technology. The reactor has operated exceedingly well thus established the competence of Indian engineers in handling this difficult technology where large quantity of sodium is used for cooling of reactors. INDIA took quantum leap from 40 MWe FBTR to launch of 500 MWe Fast...

difficult to prove cause and effect for maturity differences being responsible for any variation in response Potassium deficiency in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) depresses among genotypes to K. Theoretically, differences in root yield by decreasing late season growth and is reportedly more harmful to early maturing cotton genotypes. Research objectives were to detersystem size or effectivenes...

miR-221 and miR-222 (miR-221/222) are frequently up-regulated in human epithelial cancers. However, the mechanism of miR-221/222 action involved in carcinogenesis has not been extensively studied. Here, we found that reduction of miR-221/222 inhibited cell proliferation and induced mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis in human epithelial cancer cells (A549 lung cancer and MCF-7 breast cancer cells)...

The sutures of the skulls of vertebrates are generally open early in life and slowly close as maturity is attained. The assumption that all vertebrates follow this pattern of progressive sutural closure has been used to assess maturity in the fossil remains of non-avian dinosaurs. Here, we test this assumption in two members of the Extant Phylogenetic Bracket of the Dinosauria, the emu, Dromaiu...

The search for talent is pervasive in youth sports. Selection/exclusion in many sports follows a maturity-related gradient largely during the interval of puberty and growth spurt. As such, there is emphasis on methods for assessing maturation. Commonly used methods for assessing status (skeletal age, secondary sex characteristics) and estimating timing (ages at peak height velocity (PHV) and me...

Adult bullfrog were given single intraotic injections of the aminoglycoside antibiotic gentamicin sulfate and sacrificed at postinjection times ranging from 0.5 to 9 days. The saccular and utricular maculae of normal and injected animals were examined in wholemount and cross-section. Intraotic 200 microM gentamicin concentrations resulted in the uniform destruction of the hair bundles and, at l...

In West Bengal, it is most promising to tender early maturing high yielding varieties of rice since they can fulfil their life cycle successfully within short period of persisting cool temperature. The objective of this present investigation was to identify these high yielding early maturing genotypes of rice having quality characters and higher performance in grain yield. A study was conducted...
