To assess the salt tolerance mechanism in aromatic plants, a soil pot experiment was conducted on Ocimum sanctum (shyama tulsi). The plants were raised on natural sodic soils having different levels of Exchangeable Sodium Percentage (ESP) i.e.,: 4.37 (control), 15.7 (low), 35.6 (medium) and 54.5 (high) ESP levels in complete randomized design. Results indicated that increased in ESP significant...

ARTigo is a gaming platform with two goals: The development of a semantic search engine for art works and a study on art work reception. Even though ARTigo quite successfully achieves its goals, it is so far still deficient at collecting “deep semantics” tags. This article first discusses why this is the case, then proposes two approaches we call “squaring” and “scripting” to collecting deep se...

We consider a binary labelling problem: for some machine learning applications, two types of distinct objects are required to be labeled respectively, before a classifier can be trained. We show that the famous ESP game and variants would not work well on this binary labelling problem. We discuss how to design a new human computation game to solve this problem. It turns out that interesting but...

introdouction:the styloid process(sp) has the potential for calcification and ossification. the aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of different patterns of elongation and calcification of the sp. materials and methods: in this cross-sectional study, 400 digital panoramic radiographs taken for routine dental examination in the dental school of shiraz university were evaluated fo...

In this article, we discuss and empirically examine the importance of embodiment, context, and spatial proximity as they pertain to collaborative interaction and task completion in virtual environments. Specifically, we introduce the embodied social presence (ESP) theory as a framework to account for a higher level of perceptual engagement that users experience as they engage in activity-based ...

Electrical submersible pump (ESP) operation, like many other segments of the oil industry, is recovering from having been drowned in large number of data, the aftermath of information technology revolution, and refocusing on effective utilization of reservoir and production data. This paper presents results of the application of real-time data processing and interpretation in a mature field (Pe...

excretory-secretory products (esp) play an important role in the host biochemical defense by means of activities of detoxifying and antioxidant enzymes. the aim of this study was to evaluate praziquantel (pzq) effects by detection of glutathione s- transferase (gst) and superoxide dismutase (sod) enzymes activities in esp samples of fasciola spp. fasciola gigantica and fasciola hepatica adult p...

Haemophilus parasuis is known to produce a group of virulence-associated autotransporter (AT) proteins, VtaAs; however, no other ATs have been characterized yet. On the basis of the reported sequence of a putative espP2 gene for extracellular serine protease (ESP)-like protein of H. parasuis, this putative AT gene was successfully amplified from H. parasuis serotype 5 field strain HPS0819, clon...

This paper reports on a variant of the rapid serial visual presentation (RSVP) technique for low vision reading called elicited sequential presentation (ESP). In both techniques, words are presented sequentially at a constant screen location, but with ESP, the reader elicits presentation of each new word by means of a button press, rather than (as with RSVP) being presented with it automaticall...

OBJECTIVES To review the literature to identify whether, and how, physiotherapists working in extended scope of practice (ESP) engage with patients with inflammatory arthropathies. Measures of effectiveness of ESP were particularly sought. METHODS A comprehensive library database search was conducted to identify English language studies published in full text in peer-reviewed journals during ...
