Leaf spot disease was observed in sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) during 2009 and 2010 in Korea. The pathogen was identified as Alternaria simsimi based on morphological and cultural characteristics. The morphological identification was well supported by phylogenetic analysis of the ribosomal DNA-internal transcribed spacer region. A. simsimi isolates caused spot symptoms on leaves and stems of ses...

The Sesame environment provides modeling and simulation methods and tools for the efficient design space exploration of heterogeneous embedded multimedia systems. It specifically targets the performance evaluation of embedded systems architectures in which task-level parallelism is available. In this paper, we present techniques that allow Sesame to model intra-task parallelism exploited at the...

Background: Phlebitisis is the inflammation of the veins that negatively affect the patient’s health status. This study was conducted to determine the effect of external use of sesame oil in prevention of chemotherapy-induced phlebitis in children with ALL. Materials and  Methods: This double-blind clinical trial was conducted on 60 patients aged 2 to 14 years old who were admitted ...

Subcutaneous injections in sesame oil of testosterone and estradiol-17 beta into ovariectomized and ovariectomized-hysterectomized young adult mice were followed in six hours or less by significant increases in the diameters of the ovarian and uterine veins as compared to the same vessels in sesame oil-injected controls. The circumflex iliac, femoral, and superior mesenteric veins and inferior ...

This paper presents a solution for a new plug-in named Passerelle for Protégé 2000. Passerelle makes it possible to connect Protégé to Sesame architecture, to store and query RDF(s) data. With Passerelle, Protégé becomes a stronger ontology editor. It gives an ontology developer, the possibility of using RDF query Language (RQL) as it enables much stronger and advanced query possibilities than ...

A technical infrastructure for storing, querying and managing RDF data is a key element in the current Semantic Web development. Systems like Jena, Sesame or the ICS-FORTH RDF Suite are widely used for building Semantic Web applications. Currently, none of these systems support the integrated querying of distributed RDF repositories. We consider this a major shortcoming since the Semantic Web i...

Two hr after birth, newborn rats were given a subcutaneous injection of 0.01 mg estradiol benzoate dissolved in 0.05 ml sesame oil. Other siblings were given sesame oil alone. Autopsy was performed on days 1, 2 and 3 after birth. Gravimetric and histologic examinations of the adrenals from these animals and from normal littermate controls were made together with the determination of plasma cort...

Detailed information about the replication cycle of viruses and their interactions with host organisms is required to develop strategies to stop them. Cell biology studies, live-cell imaging, and systems biology have started to illuminate the multiple and subtly different pathways that animal viruses use to enter host cells. These insights are revolutionizing our understanding of endocytosis an...

this study carried out in a factorial layout on completely randomaized block design with three replications, to evaluate the above- and below- ground competition between sesame (sesamum indicum) and pigweed (amaranthus retroflexus), and their impacts on sesame yield and yield component. the experimental treatments were all combination of crop-weed competition (shoot competition, root competitio...
