the data were collected from 1992 to 2009 in burri, white boni and black boni sheep maintained at the regional research station in the central highlands of yemen. data were analyzed to study the effects of environmental and genetic factors on body weight and growth rate from birth to weaning. the least square means for body weights (bw) were 2.54, 2.18 and 2.26 kg for birth; 12.49, 10.58 and 11...

in this paper, a novel mathematical model for a preemption multi-mode multi-objective resource-constrained project scheduling problem with distinct due dates and positive and negative cash flows is presented. although optimization of bi-objective problems with due dates is an essential feature of real projects, little effort has been made in studying the p-mmrcpsp while due dates are included i...

black bengal goat is the heritage and one of the potential genetic resources of bangladesh. genetic and phenotypic parameters for semen characteristics and their relationships with scrotal circumference in black bengal bucks were estimated in this experiment. genetic parameters were estimated by residual maximum likelihood procedure, fitting an animal model ignoring maternal genetic or permanen...

the objective of this study was to evaluate genetic and phenotypic parameters for some reproductive traits of black bengal does. genetic parameters were estimated by residual maximum likelihood procedure, fitting an animal model ignoring maternal genetic or permanent environmental effects. the least-squares means of litter size at birth (lsb), litter size at weaning (lsw), litter weight at birt...
