In rye each B chromosome (B) represents 5.5% of the diploid A genome. Rye Bs have several nuclear to whole plant effects although they seem to bear no genes except for the ones that lead to their maintenance within a popula...

hydroxybutyrate and DPN+ and the amounts of DPNH formed were measured. Phosphate buffer was used at pH 7 and tris buffer at the fnore alkaline pH values. Controls containing all reagents except P-hydroxybutyrate or acetoacetate showed no significant changes in extinction. The results of 14 individual measurements showed good agreement (Table 1). The mean value for K was 1-42 + 0 19 (S.D.) X 10-...

In Hong Kong, the average annual cost of haemodialysis (HD) per patient is more than double of that of peritoneal dialysis (PD). As the number of patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) has surged, it has posed a great financial burden to the government and society. A PD-first policy has been implemented in Hong Kong for three decades based on its cost-effectiveness, and has achieved succe...

Objective: To present the results of our experience with labyrinthotomy or vestibulotomy in cases where the oval window is blocked by the facial nerve and in the presence of bilateral congenital agenesis of the oval window, respectively. Study design: Retrospective analysis of the records of the patients operated in two different centers. Methods: Between 2007 and 2012, 5 ears of 4 patients who...

The work presented here investigates the process by which one group of individuals solves the problem of detecting deceptions created by other agents. A field experiment was conducted in which twenty-four auditors (partners in international public accounting firms) were asked to review four cases describing real companies that, unknown to the auditors, had perpetrated financial frauds. While ma...

The coupled mechanics of fluid-filled granular media controls the physics of many Earth systems such as saturated soils, fault gouge, and landslide shear zones. It is well established that when the pore fluid pressure rises, the shear resistance of fluid-filled granular systems decreases, and as a result catastrophic events such as soil liquefaction, earthquakes, and accelerating landslides may...
