biological reactions of the two-spotted spider mite (tss), tetranychus urticae, were studied on nine cultivars of tomatoes. the spider mites were reared on leaf discs, taken from fruiting stages of the host plants. the effects of feeding on some tomato cultivars, namely: long shelf life, meran (greenhouse cultivars), redclude, western red, imperial, yazd, mazandaran, west azarbaijan and khorasa...

calcareous nannofossils in boundary of tirgan and sarcheshmeh formations at qalezo section have been studied. this section is situated in the west of kopet-dagh basin. in this study 35 nannoplankton species of 17 genera were identified. according to the first occurrence of index species and fossil assemblages two calcareous nannofossil biozones (cc7-cc8) of sissingh (1997) have been recognized....

garlic (allium sativum l.) as one of the most valuable industrial and pharmaceutical plants has been studied from many aspects because of its importance. but there is not any sufficient and reliable information about its distribution and classification. so its types are categorized according to traditional, local or geographical names or some visual traits. the most important reason is the ster...

In this paper we refine the well-known permutation statistic “descent” by fixing parity of (exactly) one of the descent’s numbers. We provide explicit formulas for the distribution of these (four) new statistics. We use certain differential operators to obtain the formulas. Moreover, we discuss connection of our new statistics to the Genocchi numbers. We also provide bijective proofs of some of...

This article reports the orthodontic treatment ofa 25-year-old female patient whose chief complaint was the inclination of the maxillary occlusal plane in front view. The individualized vertical placement of brackets is described. This placement made possible a symmetrical occlusal plane to be achieved in a rather straightforward manner without the need for further technical resources.

Object Orientation has as primary goal to improve the software construction process. Object Oriented analysis, design and software construction should yield software of a high quality: software that is reliable, maintainable, extensible, adaptable. However, delivering large OO software systems in a qualitative way is a significant challenge. Scaling up requires formal precision of the semantics...

In the past, rock slope stability analysis were performed either graphically or using a hand-held calculator, but nowadays there are variety of slope stability analysis which can be used according to the field condition and potential failure mode. In 2-D analysis, effect of convex and concave walls are neglected, however concave slopes are believed to be more stable than straight walls due to t...

The notion of interpretation was first carefully defined and developed in the book [TMR53]. The notion of interpretation is absolutely fundamental to mathematical logic and the foundations of mathematics. It is also crucial for the foundations and philosophy of science-although here some crucial conditions generally need to be imposed; e.g., " the interpretation leaves the mathematical concepts...
