A field strain of the German cockroach (Melia), collected from the kitchen of a hotel in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia demonstrated moderate resistance to bendiocarb and low resistance to propoxur and deltamethrin when tested with modified W.H.O. glass jar method. Low resistance was also detected when the strain was tested with DDT. Resistance level to bendiocarb and deltamethrin was partially suppres...

osteopontin gene is located at the end of chromosome 6 in cattle and it is one of the most important genes influence on milk protein percentage and reproduction. in this study, blood samples were collected from100 brown swiss cows and dna was extracted from whole blood by modified salting out procedure. cows were genotyped for single nucleotide polymorphism of intron iv by pcr-rflp and bsri res...

OBJECTIVES Assessment of the Hardy-Weinberg proportion (HWP) in controls has been widely used as a quality control measure in case-control association studies. However, when the disease being studied is common, controls might not represent the general population, which could result in inaccurate HWP test results. Such results could lead investigators to discard important single-nucleotide polym...

Let T be a Calderon-Zygmund operator, a classical result of Coifman, Rochberg and Weiss (see [7]) states that the commutator [b, T ] = T (bf)−bTf (where b ∈ BMO(Rn)) is bounded on Lp(Rn) for 1 < p < ∞; Chanillo (see [2]) proves a similar result when T is replaced by the fractional integral operator. However, it was observed that [b, T ] is not bounded, in general, from Hp(Rn) to Lp(Rn) for p ≤ ...

We give necessary and sufficient conditions on a pair of positive radial functions V and W on a ball B of radius R in R, n ≥ 1, so that the following inequalities hold for all u ∈ C 0 (B):

Notes ar...

stearoyl-coa desaturase (scd) is a rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis of monounsaturated fatty acids (mufa). a number of studies support the hypothesis that scd gene regulation and polymorphism may affect fatty acid composition and fat quality in meat and milk. single nucleotide polymorphisms in the coding region of the bovine stearoyl-coa desaturase gene have been predicted to result in ...

In this paper, we define generalized Hardy-Berndt sums and elliptic analogue of the generalized Hardy-Berndt sums related to elliptic Bernoulli polynomials. We give relations between the Weierstrass ℘(z)-function, Hardy-Bernd sums, theta functions and generalized Dedekind eta function. 2000 Mathematical Subject Classification: Primary 11F20, 11B68; Secondary 14K25, 14H42.
