Given the importance of potato in the economy and people’s nutrition, as well as planting of disease-free seeds, it seems necessary to produce healthy seeds through tissue culture. This study was conducted during 2012-2013 at the Research Center of Agricultural University of Tajikistan aiming to evaluate the effect of different sizes of mini-tuber on yield and yield components of potato crop. A...

The objective of this study was to determine the association between intracellular free AA (FAA) profiles in skeletal muscle with muscle growth in twin and singleton fetuses in late pregnancy and at weaning, under an ad libitum feeding regime of the dam. Plasma from singleton- (n = 9) and twin-bearing (n = 10) ewes at d 140 of pregnancy and FAA in the semitendinosus muscle (STM) from the corres...

Variation in market weight is a major concern for swine production systems. Because of variation in growth rate and market weights, producers are forced to sort heavily to reduce the cost of weight discounts. The lighter weight end of the distribution curve is the most expensive portion of the variation because it dictates when barns can be emptied and refilled and is the weight range most disc...

A central concept in neuroscience is that the CNS signals the sensory discrepancy between the predicted and actual sensory consequences of action. It has been proposed that the cerebellum and parietal cortex are involved in this process. A discrepancy will trigger preprogrammed corrective responses and update the engaged sensorimotor memories. Here we use functional magnetic resonance imaging w...

height, weight and body mass index (bmi) of married adults aged 20-69 years with a school-aged child in shiraz (iran) are reported. smoothed centile values have been derived from the raw data by healy's nonparametric method. factors affecting obesity of adults are examined. shiraz adults are taller and heavier than most adults from developing areas of the world, but are shorter and lighter...

In this study, we examined sex and ethnic disparities in growth and body mass index (BMI) status among schoolchildren of transnational families, the aborigines and Han Taiwanese in Nantou, Taiwan. We tested the hypothesis that cultural and social factors of the transnational couples could impact the growth status of their children. The study also determined the factors associated with the growt...
