In this study, the population growth parameters of Aphis gossypii Glover (Hemiptera: Aphididae) on five different melons [Cucumis melo Linnaeus (Cucurbitaceae) cultivars (Balin, Çitirex, 221 F1, Gediz, Yusufbey)], which are commonly grown in Turkey, were investigated laboratory experiments. Life table estimated according to age-stage and two-sex life theory. The results showed that A. develope...

The paper shows a large-scale shift in agroclimatic zones the territory of Czech Republic (CR) between 1961 and 2019. method used for zoning took advantage high-resolution (0.5 km × 0.5 km) daily climate data collected from 268 climatological 787 rain-gauge stations. information was combined with soil terrain at same resolution. set seven indicators allowed us to estimate rates changes conditi...

The case study aims to describe the nephrotic syndrome (NS) in a castrated 3-year-old male Cocker Spaniel dog. patient arrived at hospital with loss of appetite and weakness. Skin oedema ascites was observed along hypoalbuminaemia, hypoproteinaemia, hyperlipidaemia, hypercholesterolaemia, proteinuria (urine protein creatinine ratio = 22.4). Based on these findings, diagnosed NS, although renal ...

Phoma stem canker, caused by Leptosphaeria spp. is generally managed with demethylation inhibitor (DMI) fungicides in the Czech Republic. However, there have been reports of resistance to DMIs L. maculans populations. Fungicide management recommends application different modes action, either as mixtures or rotation other fungicide classes. The objective, therefore, was evaluate efficacy boscali...

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of a toy on behaviour and body weight weaned pigs after mixing. Two groups (192 in total, control: without toy; treatment: with placed floor) housed pens (1.8 m × 1.4 m, 4 pigs/pen) were observed aid video technology for nine consecutive hours early (days 1 2) late 38 39) period Bodyweight at end (Mann-Whitney U-test, Z = -2.46, P 0.01) average ...

Nefrotický syndrom (NS) je charakterizován velkou proteinurií (nad 3,5 g/24 h), hypalbuminemií, generalizovanými otoky, hyperlipidemií a poruchami koagulace. Vedle primárních glomerulonefritid se vyskytuje u sekundárních glomerulopatií při diabetu, amyloidóze, systémových zánětlivých chorobách, onkologických onemocněních, poškození léky drogami, alergiích, závažných...

We show that a sequence has effective Hausdorff dimension 1 if and only if it is coarsely similar to a Martin-Löf random sequence. More generally, a sequence has effective dimension s if and only if it is coarsely similar to a weakly s-random sequence. Further, for any s ă t, every sequence of effective dimension s can be changed on density at most H ́1ptq ́H ́1psq of its bits to produce a sequen...

Performance of a tractor mounted solar-biomass hybrid dryer which utilise combined energy solar and biomass was investigated. Drying behaviour maize grains in the also investigated using 10 thin-layer mathematical models. The models were compared based on coefficient determination (R2) root mean square error (RMSE) values between experimental predicted moisture ratios. Moisture content (MC) red...

The concept of the soil phosphorus storage capacity (SPSC) was successfully used to evaluate (P) loss risk and P retention acidic soil. This study extended SPSC from neutral or alkaline A total 95 surfaces (0-10 cm) samples were collected Yellow River Delta (YRD) for use in this study. Batch sorption experiments, correlation analysis, stepwise regression, a split-line model calculate threshold ...

A study was conducted at the University of Venda Experimental Farm, Limpopo province, South Africa to determine effects tillage and mulching on selected soil properties, yield sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.). The experiment laid out in a split plot design with three replications during 2018/19 2019/20 cropping seasons. Treatments consisted conventional (CT) minimum (MT) levels avocado leaf mul...
