in this study the effect of different nitrogen source substrates on the amount of chitosan production by aspergillus niger was investigated. a. niger ptcc 5012 from the persian type culture collection (ptcc) was grown on soy bean, corn seed and canola residues at 30 °c for specified cultivation days under sterilized conditions. chitosan was extracted from the fungal mycelia using hot alkaline a...

Developing sustainable management practices including appropriate residue removal and nitrogen (N) fertilization for bioenergy sorghum is critical. However, the effects of residue removal and N fertilization associated with bioenergy sorghum production on soil organic carbon (SOC) are less studied compared to other crops. The objective of our research was to assess the impacts of residue remova...

The toric residue is a map depending on n + 1 semi-ample divisors on a complete toric variety of dimension n . It appears in a variety of contexts such as sparse polynomial systems, mirror symmetry, and GKZ hypergeometric functions. In this paper we investigate the problem of finding an explicit element whose toric residue is equal to one. Such an element is shown to exist if and only if the as...

It is shown that the extended quadratic residue code of length 20 over GF(7) is a unique self-dual [20, 10, 9] code C such that the lattice obtained from C by Construction A is isomorphic to the 20-dimensional unimodular lattice D 20, up to equivalence. This is done by converting the classification of such self-dual codes to that of skew-Hadamard matrices of order 20.

The largest minimum weight of a self-dual doubly-even binary (n, k, d) code is d = 4bn/24c+ 4. Of such codes with length divisible by 24, the Golay Code is the only (24, 12, 8) code, the Extended Quadratic Residue Code is the only known (48, 24, 12) code, and there is no known (72, 36, 16) code. One may partition the search for a (48, 24, 12) self-dual doubly-even code into 3 cases. A previous ...

A 3- years (2015, 2016 and 2017) field study was carried out at National Wheat Research Program, Bhirahawa, Rupandehi, Nepal to evaluate the influence of crop residues and nitrogen levels on rice. The experiment was conducted in split plot design with three replications. Main plots were two crop residue levels (with crop residues of 30 cm wheat stubble and without crop residues) and sub plots c...

the effect of tillage (conventional and zero tillage), crop establishment (raised-bed and flat-bed), and weed management practices (herbicide alone and integrated approach) was studied on productivity, profitability, nutrient uptake and physico-chemical properties of soil in soybean–wheat cropping system, at new delhi during 2010–2012. sixteen treatment combinations consisting of four tillage a...
