By rooting behavior in ideas, and ideas in the brain, Hebb laid the groundwork for modern neuroscience. His theory prefigured computer models of neural networks.

abstract- a detailed understanding of crop rooting systems will facilitate water use reduction, optimized nutrient uptake and irrigation scheduling more efficiently. a field experiment was conducted during 2005-2006 to investigate sugar beet rooting depth growth, irrigated with three irrigation methods (subsurface drip, surface drip and furrow) and two water qualities (recycled wastewater: ec= ...

an efficient and cost effective protocol for in vitro propagation of pineapple (ananas comosus var. queen) has been developed. in the proliferation stage, agar based murashige and skoog (ms) media was supplemented with 3.0 mg/l benzyleaminopurine (bap), 0.5 mg/l indole acetic acid (iaa) and 50 mg/l adenine sulphate as rbc design experiment. two approaches were taken to reduce the chemical cost ...

Australia has experienced a sudden and unexpected resurgence in bed bug infestations from both Cimex lectularius L. and Cimex hemipterus F. A survey in 2006 revealed that infestations had increased across the nation by an average of 4,500% since the start of the decade. In response, a multi-disciplinary approach to combat the rise of this public health pest was implemented and involved the coor...

Single-node leafy stem cuttings of Shorea leprosula Miq. were subjected to a high, intermediate or low irradiance treatment for 16 weeks in an enclosed mist propagation system. Before rooting, maximum photosynthesis of the cuttings occurred at an irradiance of 400 micro mol m(-2) s(-1). Although none of the irradiance treatments affected the number of roots produced per cutting, the numbers of ...

abstract this experiment was conducted for optimizing a suitable medium for callus induction, regeneration and rooting of anthurium. leaf and petiol explants of antadra and casino varieties were used for callus production. ms medium was supplied with growth regulators (naa, ba, kin and iba). a complete randomized design with 3 replication was used in this expriment. result indicates that variet...
