A high-frequency, season-independent, in vitro regeneration of Ficusreligiosa was developed, followed by comparative acetylcholinesterase inhibitory (AChEI) activity assay of the in vitro raised and conventionally grown plants. The use of AChEI activity is the most accepted strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer disease. Fully expanded, mature leaves were cut into different segments to initiat...

Software Conceptual Integrity has been considered a cardinal concern for design and development of software systems. But, except for verbal descriptions of desiderata, there were no formal tools to guarantee that conceptual integrity is attained. This paper proposes an axiomatic algebraic approach, based upon the assumption that the software system in each level of the system hierarchy is repre...

During the spring of 1964, preand postemergence damping-off killed many sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciftua L.) seedlings in a nursery at Stoneville, Miss. Fusarium solani (Mart.) Appel & Wr., Sclerotium rolfsii Sacc., Talaromyces spiculisporum Benjamin, and Pythium sylvaticum Campbell & F.F.Hendrix were isolated from the diseased seedlings. At soil temperatures similar to those prevailing when d...

Three trials have been set up in Côte d’Ivoire to analyse the growth of six-year-old microcuttings produced from seedlings, 45-month-old somatic embryos of PB 260 and PR 107 and 31-month-old microcuttings of IRCA 18. The results show that Hevea in vitro plantlets produced by somatic embryogenesis or microcutting consistently grow as well as if not better than conventional budded plants. The dif...

The level of 5-methylcytosine (m5C) in DNA has been observed to change plants response biotic and abiotic stress factors. Little information reported on alterations methylation orthodox tree seeds storage conditions. In the current study, epigenetic integrity was analyzed Pyrus communis L. conventional cryogenic storage. results indicate that under optimal conditions resulted a significant incr...

Background and objective: This study was conducted to determine the appropriate cell size, days after sowing seeds by examining growth of Hemerocallis thunbergii Baker (HTB) seedlings using plug trays.Methods: The examined in four types trays (143, 70, 18, 13 mL/cell). sown were placed a greenhouse for three repetitions per treatment. seedling measured at intervals one month sowing.Results: lea...

We studied the response of Elaeagnus rhamnoides (Sea Buckthorn) to drought stress in a nursery. Photosynthesis and chlorophyll content under drought were change rather modest. Growth and physiological differences in response to drought were compared between four Sea Buckthorn seedlings treatments inhabited in the Qazvin provenance origin seeds in Mashhad city of Iran. The experimental design in...

Bud break and multiple shoots were induced in apical and axillary meristems derived from one month old seedlings of S. mukorossi on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with benzylamino purine (BAP) 0.4 microM or 0.8 microM alone. A combination of BAP and gibberellic acid (GA3) 0.4 microM and 2.8 microM produced elongated multiple shoots from both types of explants. Excised shoots were ...

Anthurium maricense Nadruz & Mayo is one of the anthurium species with potential for commercialization as a foliage. The objective this study was to evaluate NPK rates and frequency nitrogen foliar fertilization pot cultivation maricense. experimental design completely randomized, in split-plot scheme, 04-14-08 applied substrate (0; 3; 6; 9 12 kg m−3) main treatments fertilizer (no fertilizer; ...

This paper discusses Brooks’ The Mythical Man-Month, a landmark work in the software project management field, and compares the software project management advice given there with practices employed some 25 years later. To find out the state of today’s practice 20 experienced software developers were interviewed regarding their impressions of factors leading to success or failure of software de...
