Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.) Walp is known to be affected by several fungal, bacterial and viral diseases. One of such fungal diseases reported to cause serious yield loss in the cowpea is the Cercospora leaf spot disease caused by two fungi namely, Cercospora canescens Ellis and Martin and Cercospora cruenta [1]. Yield loss attributed to Cercosora leaf spot in susceptible cowpea variety varie...

Ellis, Gaillard, Nanopoulos, and Rudaz' were first to point out the possibility of large CP-violating effects in neutral B systems. Since the interpretation of the Y as bb, theprospectof observing weak mass mixing and CP violation in B„-B„decay has motivated several estimates of mixing and charge-asymmetry parameters, in the frameworks of both the Kobayashi-Maskawa (KM) model and Higgs exchange...

We present constraints on the deuterium to hydrogen ratio (D/H) in the metal-poor gas cloud at redshift z = 0.701 towards QSO 1718+4807. We use new Keck spectra in addition to Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) spectra. We use an improved redshift and a lower H I column density to model the absorption. The HST spectrum shows an asymmetric Lyman-α (Lyα) fea...

The corporate finance literature suggests that a financially constrained firm invests less than an identical unconstrained firm. This does not imply that financial frictions cause firms to invest less than in a frictionless economy. When firms compete for investment funds, an increase in financial frictions can lead individual firms to increase their investment levels. A greater than the fricti...

Ellis-van Creveld syndrome (EVC) is a very rare genetic disorder that affects various tissues of ectodermal and mesodermal origin; patients with EVC present with typical oral deficiencies. The affected individuals are quite young at the time of oral evaluation. It is, therefore, important that these individuals are diagnosed and receive dental treatment at an early age for their physiologic and...

Ellis-van Creveld (EvC) syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive malformation syndrome with the main features cardiac defects, postaxial hexadactyly, mesomelic shortening of the limbs, short ribs, dysplastic nails and teeth, oral frenula and various other abnormalities while mental function is normal. We describe 2 adult EvC patients with the cardinal skeletal features of mesomelic short stature ...

INTRODUCTION Ellis-van Creveld (EVC) syndrome is one of the rarest ciliopathy syndromes. It is caused by mutations of the EVC and EVC2 genes which encode the EVC proteins present in the basal body of the primary cilium. PRESENTATION OF CASES We report on a Saudi family with two affected children. Gene analysis revealed a homozygous c.2T >A in exon 1 of the EVC gene. The most interesting findi...
