A 3-gdd of type gu exists if and only if g and u have the same parity, 3 divides u and u ≤ 3g. Such a 3-gdd of type gu is equivalent to an edge decomposition of Kg,g,g,u,u into triangles. 2010 MSC: 05B05, 05B07, 05C70

OBJECTIVE To systematically review the evidence concerning the diagnostic yield of genetic and metabolic evaluation of children with global developmental delay or intellectual disability (GDD/ID). METHODS Relevant literature was reviewed, abstracted, and classified according to the 4-tiered American Academy of Neurology classification of evidence scheme. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS In patients ...

Wheat (Triticum aestivum) production in the rainfed area of Pothwar Pakistan is extremely vulnerable to high temperature. The expected increase in temperature due to global warming should result in shorter crop life cycles, and thus lower biomass and grain yield. Two major factors control wheat phenological development: temperature and photoperiod. To evaluate wheat development in response to t...

Objective. This paper highlights the main lines of etiological investigation of global developmental delay (GDD), mental retardation (MR) or intellectual disability (ID) and their specifi c order. GDD and MR/ID are chronic entities with onset during the developmental period, affecting personal, social, academic, occupational functions. Elucidating the etiology is important for establishing the ...

Global climate change is causing shifts in phenology across multiple species. We use a geographically and temporally extensive data set of butterfly abundance across the state of Ohio to ask whether phenological change can be predicted from climatological data. Our focus is on growing degree days (GDD), a commonly used measure of thermal accumulation, as the mechanistic link between climate cha...

The optical layout of soft X-ray grating compressors designed to provide both positive and negative group-delay dispersion (GDD) is discussed. They are tailored for chirped-pulse-amplification experiments with seeded free-electron laser sources. Designs with plane or concave gratings are discussed, depending on the sign of the GDD to be introduced.
