To explore the use of Caenorhabditis elegans and related nematodes for studying behavioral evolution, we conducted a comparative study of pharyngeal behaviors and neuronal regulation in free-living soil nematodes. The pharynx is divided into three parts: corpus, isthmus and terminal bulb, and pharyngeal behaviors consist of stereotyped patterns of two motions: pumping and peristalsis. Based on ...

The objective of this research was to determine production requirement for onion bulb crop using sets as, rarely but high potential, planting material. An experiment carried out at the Demonstration Farm Faculty Agriculture, University Khartoum two consecutive growing seasons,(2010/11 and 2011/12). Treatments comprised cultivars(Saggai Kamlin), three set sizes (small 1-1.5 cm diameter; medium 1...

Lateral inhibition in the olfactory bulb is mediated by circuits that involve reciprocal dendrodendritic connections between mitral and granule cells. Because of the properties of these connections and also because odor stimuli are not represented in an obviously topographic fashion, questions have been raised about whether the function of local inhibition in the olfactory bulb can be compared ...

in this case report, a 36 year old female at 40 weeks' gestation is presented in whom large bilateral vestibular bulb masses were found on pelvic examination. the size of the masses was such as to cause concern that they may pose an impediment to normal parturition. our pathological findings, management and results are presented.

to determine the threshold of photoperiodism and culmulative thermal time related to bulbing and growth analysis of safid behbehan, ghermez iranshahr and primavera onion cultivars an experiment was conducted at behbahan agricultural research station for a year (2006-2007) based on a randomized complete block design of four replications. seeds were sown in nursery in late october and seedlings t...

The Harderian gland is an orbital gland located behind the ocular bulb in most terrestrial vertebrates probably functioning for production of lipid secretion to protect the eye. We herein present a protein reference database of the rat Harderian gland that may serve as analytical tool for future proteomic work, report lipid and porphyrin handling cascades, address sequence conflicts and report ...

The vulnerability of animal production to Thermal Humidity Index (THI) has hardly been documented in India and hence one study on climate weather the conception rate cattle was conducted at Pantnagar, Uttarakhand. In study, meteorological data (2000 2010) were collected from agrometeorological Observatory, Pantnagar used compute six different types by giving weightage dry bulb temperature humid...
