OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the circadian adaptation of tcr (core body temperature), BP (blood pressure), HR (heart rate) and subjective sleep quality after 7 days of working 12-h night shifts in offshore fleet workers. METHODS Night workers (N = 7) (18:00-6:00) and day workers (N = 7) (6:00-18:00) were recruited from a Norwegian offshore company operating in the North...

Factors that negatively affect the quality of wildlife habitat are a major concern for conservation. Non-native species invasions, in particular, are perceived as a global threat to the quality of wildlife habitat. Recent evidence indicates that some changes to understory plant communities in northern temperate forests of North America, including invasions by 3 non-native plant species, are fac...

Plant growth-promoting bacteria colonize various habitats, including the phyllosphere. Here, we present the high-quality draft genome sequence of Bacillus sp. strain 5B6, which was isolated from the leaf of a cherry tree. The 3.9-Mb genome uncovers its potential for understanding the nature of leaf colonization as well as antibiosis against plant pathogens.

leaf yellowing is a major problem in postharvest of alstroemeria cut flowers. for delaying of leaf yellowing and increasing flower quality a completely randomized factorial design was carried out on the alstroemeria cut flowers (‘fuji’ cultivar). in this research ethanol (0, 2, 4, 6%), ga3 (0, 50, 100, 150 mg/litre) in two methods (pulse and continuous) were investigated on the flower vese life...

Application[Editor 321]  of biotic growth regulators (e.g. humic components) and appropriate mulches is recommended to improve turfgrass quality especially in arid andsemi-arid climate zones. However, limited number of studies have investigated their effect on lawn establishment. To investigate the effect of humic acid (HA) and selected mulches on characteristics of Festuca arundinacea in its p...

Application of biotic growth regulators (e.g. humic components) and appropriate mulches is recommended to improve turfgrass quality. However, limited research has investigated their effect on lawn establishment. To investigate the effect of humic acid and selected mulches on characteristics of Festuca arundinacea in its planting stage, a factorial experiment based on a completely rando...

Cotton leaf diseases have occurred all over the world including India. They have significant impact on quality and yield of cotton. This paper select bacterial leaf blight, myrothecium and grey mildew as study object. The testing samples of the images are gathered from CICR Nagpur. The image enhancement techniques used include histogram equalization, decorelation stretching, linear contrast str...

Understanding the synergic interactions between arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and its host mulberry (Morus alba L.), an important perennial multipurpose plant, has theoretical and practical significance in mulberry plantation, silkworm cultivation, and relevant textile industry. In a greenhouse study, we compared functional distinctions of three genetically different AMF species (Acaulospo...
