in order to finding cultivars with high yield and compatible with potato in the form of fall cultivation in jiroft area, an experiment in randomized complete block design with three replication, was done in jiroft agricultural research center in 2013. in this experiment height plant, no. stem, tuber diameter, tuber weight/plant, no. tuber and yield were examined. effect prevent freezing cropaid...

The developments in unmanned aerial vehicles make it possible to use this platform on a much larger scale. The current challenge is to use a team of flying robots to explore a city block, place lookouts at strategic points and if possible to enter some of the buildings in the block, to search for hazards and/or people. This challenge is still quite ambitious, but allows researchers to explore s...

Using the Goddard Laboratory for Atmospheres Goddard Earth Observing System-1 analyses, the horizontal distribution of atmospheric forcing processes involved in the growth, maintenance, and decay of two Northern Hemisphere midlatitude blocking anticyclones that occurred simultaneously were examined, with the goal of determining whether there was a dynamic connection between the two cases. The c...

This study compared the effects of 2 treatment protocols for correcting Class II disharmony. The first phase of treatment consisted of functional jaw orthopedics with either the Twin-block or the stainless-steel crown Herbst appliance; the second phase consisted of comprehensive fixed-appliance therapy in both protocols. Each of the 2 samples comprised 28 consecutively treated Class II patients...

Prosopis alba seedlings, that grew at the 45 dS m salinity level in a previous study of growth and survival of Argentine and Peruvian Prosopis, were propagated by rooting cuttings and established in a seed orchard/long term evaluation trial on soils with low salinity (EC 5.1–7.5 dS m) but high pH (8.9 to 10.2). A pH gradient occurred in the field with values ranging from pH 9.4 in block 1 to pH...

BACKGROUND A decreased lumbosacral subarachnoidal space volume is a major factor in the cephalad intrathecal spread of local anesthetics in term parturients and their subarachnoidal space is decreased due to the compressive effect of huge uteri. Therefore, they show a higher level of sensory block and hypotensive episodes. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the symphysis-fundal...

The measurement kit of the ADA-CAT (Americans With Disabilities Act-Compliance Assessment Toolkit) consists of measurement instruments, such as a measuring tape, a sound level meter, a light level meter, and a magic slope block. Perhaps the most important tool is the measuring tape for length and height measurement as distances are used so prolifically in the ADA assessment process. Currently, ...

Tetanic stimulation influences subsequent neuromuscular responses. In addition, the tetanus-induced changes in neuromuscular responses differ according to the level of neuromuscular block at which tetanic stimulation is delivered. We studied the tetanus-induced effect on subsequent train-of-four (TOF) responses at various levels of vecuronium-induced neuromuscular block in 45 anaesthetized pati...

The question addressed by this study was whether native speakers of languages that have a relatively large inventory of vowels maximize the phonetic distance between those vowels by using a relatively wider range of tongue positions than speakers of small-inventory languages. Glossometry was used to measure tongue height in the Spanish vowels /i/, /u/, /a/, /e/, and /o/ and in the English vowel...
