The second law of thermodynamics states that entropy, as a measure of randomness in a system, increases over time. Although studies have investigated biological sequence randomness from different aspects, it remains unknown whether sequence randomness changes over time and whether this change consists with the second law of thermodynamics. To capture the dynamics of randomness in molecular sequ...

a study was conducted to investigate the effect of different planting densities and nitrogen doses on essential oil content and yield in herb and leaves of basil (ocimum basilicum l.). the research was conducted during 2007 and 2008 using split-plot randomized complete block design with four replications. the experiment consisted of four plant densities (30×20, 40×20 and 50×20 cm) as the main p...

objective: evaluation activity was conducted using three spearmint genotypes (wg-spm-engl, spm-fran and spm-eas) and one standard check (wgsm-03) at wondo genet, awassa, debre zeit and allagae during 2012 and 2013 for two years. methods: the treatments were arranged in randomized complete block design with four replications. data on leaf to stem ratio, leaf yield/ha, essential oil content and e...
