Linear Programming is a scientific method used for obtaining and determine the most optimal solution problem with given constraints. This technique useful guidance of quantitative decision-making in different fields such as business planning, industrial engineering, production firm to extent social physical sciences. research examines application linear programming product(s) that maximize(s) p...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the protective eyewear promotion (PEP) project, which was a comprehensive educational strategy to increase the use of appropriate protective eyewear by squash players. METHODS An ecological study design was used. Four squash venues in one playing association were randomly chosen to receive PEP and four in another association maintained usual practice and hence formed a c...

Management ofMeloidogyne incognita by chemigation with fenamiphos was studied in an infested field planted to M. incognita-suscepfible yellow summer squash cv. Dixie Hybrid. Fenamiphos (VL 73.1% a.i. manufacturing concentrate in propylene glycol) was mixed with Unitol DSR-90 or used as fenamiphos 3 SC (spray concentrate). Both formulations, applied with 63.5 kl irrigation water per hectare, dec...

Genetic bottlenecks may occur in virus populations when only a few individuals are transferred horizontally from one host to another, or when a viral population moves systemically from the infection site. Genetic bottlenecks during the systemic movement of an RNA plant virus population were reported previously (H. Li and M. J. Roossinck, J. Virol. 78:10582-10587, 2004). In this study we mechani...

Energy dispersive x-ray analysis was used to study the composition of certain protein body components in Cucurbita maxima cotyledons. The globoid crystal was rich in phosphorus, potassium, and magnesium. This elemental composition provides further evidence that the globoid crystal in squash cotyledon protein bodies is composed of phytin, a myoinositol hexaphosphoric acid salt of potassium and m...
