A transmissible strain of myeloid leukemia of mice is described. It can be readily passed from diseased to healthy mice by the transfer of tissues that contain live cells; but inoculation fails when the latter are not present. Inoculation is successful in almost every mouse whose resistance is lowered by X-rays. It is often successful in mice related to the animal in which the spontaneous leuke...

—Field inoculation trials are an important component of screening American elms (Ulmus americana) for levels of resistance to Dutch elm disease. A major concern in screening is variability in disease ratings from year to year. Previous studies have demonstrated that timing of inoculation can have a significant impact on disease susceptibility. In this study, trees were inoculated in the main st...

Inoculation experiments were carried out in pot culture to determine the effects of VA fungi on the growth of Poa bulbosa. In this experiment, four treatments  were  used: 1. Strile soil without  inoculation,  2. Strile soil plus inoculum, 3. Natural soil plus inoculum, and 4. Natural soil without inoculation. Inoculum was prepared from a suspension of mycorrhizal  roots of  Poa  plants (Root c...

in order to investigate the integration of phosphorus fertilizer different levels and phosphorus solubilizing bacteria p.fluorescens on quantitative and qualitative forage yield of two fall barley cultivars, an experiment carried out at research farm of college of agriculture of university of tehran during 2009-2010. the experiment design consisted of three randomized complete blocks in a facto...

The combined effects of inoculation level (4 or 8-fold compared to standard inoculation) and sequence (standard inoculation before fermentation and 3-fold inoculation at the end of fermentation=1+3, Two-fold inoculation before fermentation and the same at the end of fermentation=2+2, 2+6, 4-fold before fermentation=4, 4+4, and 8) of culture inoculum containing probiotics on biochemical and micr...

An important factor in the successful application of evolutionary techniques to real-world problems is the incorporation of domain knowledge. One form such knowledge often takes is the possession of one or more high-quality solutions. Non-random initialisation, or inoculation, of the population in an evolutionary algorithm provides a way to incorporate such knowledge. A body of folklore about t...

Stress is a generalized set of physiological and psychological responses observed when an organism is placed under challenging circumstances. The stress response allows organisms to reattain the equilibrium in face of perturbations. Unfortunately, chronic and/or traumatic exposure to stress frequently overwhelms coping ability of an individual. This is manifested as symptoms affecting emotions ...

Introduction: Risky behaviors and unhealthy lifestyles are significantly associated with mortality of adolescents. So, this study was conducted to compare the effectiveness of social-educational inoculation program based on the Islamic approach and stress inoculation training on the lifestyle of second-grade high school female students with risky behaviors in Yazd. Methods: This study was semi...
