in order to evaluate the relationship between grain yield and agronomic characteristics in bread wheat genotypes in different planting dates under rainfed conditions, a factorial experiment was conducted based on rcbd with four replications at gonbad-e qabus region, iran, during 2012-2014 growing seasons. number of spikes per unit area, grain filling rate, effective grain filling period, number...

the family magnaporthaceae considered as a single-family placed in the order magnaporthales. currently, three distinct clades are phylogenetically distinguished in this order that one is referred as the pyriculariaceae. the pyriculariaceae is characterized as a novel family having new genera, new species, new combinations and neotypification (basionym). to taxonomically evaluate this family, an...

This paper describes an approach to the evaluative design of e-government projects that complements traditional approaches which focus predominantly on measures such as efficiency and profit/ROI. Whilst such measures are important in the context of e-government, they do not naturally support the evaluation of the broader political and social objectives such as social inclusion, community regene...

Assessing the returns of public investments in information and communication technologies (ICT) poses important practical and research challenges. Scholars and practitioners that have embarked in ICT assessment activities have encountered many difficulties which, to a large extent, have remained pending issues. This paper reviews the exiting literature on public return on investment (ROI) and p...

Information Technology (IT) is rapidly growing in The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). PC sales and Internet growth is the highest in the region [1, 2]. However, it is generally believed that e-Commerce practices are not progressing at the same speed. To judge this, Saudi web practices need to be evaluated. This study is one of the first scientific studies of Saudi commercial web sites by analyzi...

Background: Recently, botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT)-derived recombinant proteins have been suggested as potential botulism vaccines. Here, with concentrating on BoNT type E (BoNT/E), we studied two of these binding domain-based recombinant proteins: a multivalent chimer protein, which is composed of BoNT serotypes A, B and E binding subdomains, and a monovalent recombinant protein, which contains...
