Seven lines of triticale (X Triticosecale Wittmack) with either shriveled or plump seed characteristics were planted in the field, and seed developmental changes in weight, starch content, the activity of starch biosynthetic and degradative enzymes, and ATP content were studied in three consecutive years in Oregon. Experimental results varied among genotypes and with growing environment, but ov...

The phenomenon of “fat shaming” (in particular with its aspect the especially harsh criticism corpulence in young adult women) seems nearly non-existent ancient Classical literature. extant satirical depictions fatness are uncommon and aimed, almost exclusively, at overweight men. author paper analyses this description, background moral philosophy, as well comments on plumpness gluttony context...

Introduction: The mechanical properties of joints have a significant impact on the dynamic response transmission tower structures. Methods: Considering bolt slip, numerical model K-joint is established. K-joints are studied from three aspects: failure mode, load-displacement hysteretic curve, and stiffness degradation by method. effects preload, friction coefficient, member strength analyzed. R...

Analyses for test weight, 500-kernel weight, protein content, ash content, and hardness characteristics of fractions ot 13 samples of hard red winter wheat, obtained b>spectrometric separation, revealeci high negatile correlations in most cases between plumpness factors and protein and ash contents, and high positive correlations between plumpness factors and hardness, when the latter is determ...

to investigate the genetic diversity of persian walnut (juglans regia), 608 different walnut genotypes of neyriz region were evaluated for 30 morphological characteristics including kernel color, fruit shape, shell seal, shell texture and kernel plumpness, kernel weight, percentage of kernel as well as thickness of shell. the correlation between was traits in most cases significant at either 1 ...

Abstract Thousand grain weight (TGW) is an important determinant of rice yield, and correlates with size, plumpness number per panicle. In rice, there are fewer association mapping studies relating traits using both SSR SNP markers. this study, in order to find robust markers associated TGW trait mine elite accessions we investigated the across six environments a natural population consisted 46...
