This paper describes early experiments, which attempt to reconfigure the sound of a breath using a network of artificial spiking cortical neurons. The connectivity of the network evolves according to a spike timing dependent plasticity algorithm and the instrument triggers grains of sound from recordings of the breath when any of the neurons fire.

Drought is the major detrimental environmental factor for wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production. The exploration of genetic patterns underlying drought tolerance great significance. Here we report gene actions controlling phenological traits using line × tester model studying 27 crosses and 12 parents under normal irrigation conditions. results interpreted via multiple analysis (mean performa...

soil salinity poses considerable and increasing problems for agriculture, and is receiving much attention from plant breeders. the identification of genes whose expression enables plants to adapt to and/or tolerate salt stress is essential for breeding programs, but little is known about the genetic mechanisms of traits in saline conditions. the data obtained from 75 families produced by crossi...

Improving terminal heat tolerance is an issue of top priority in wheat breeding the present era climate change. Present study was carried out to identify association among traits economic importance under stress environment. The grain yield/sq. meter environment recorded highly significant positive correlation both at genotypic and phenotypic level with weight/spike, number spike/sq. meter, har...

twenty five durum wheat lines were evaluated under drought stress and non-stress conditions employing randomized complete block design of 4 replications. significant differences were observed among the lines for most traits in either stress or non-stress conditions. correlation analysis under non-stress conditions indicated that grains per spike and number of spikes per m2 and while under stres...

effects of drought stress and chemical treatments was studied on growth and developmental traits of four barley cultivars using a split- split plot design (rcbd) in agricultural research farm, kerman university in 2013-14. main plots consisted of irrigation (control and drought stress after flowering), sub-plots consisted of four barley cultivars (ʻnosratʼ, ʻafsalʼ, ʻyousofʼ and ʻuh12 lineʼ) an...

The effect of flooding can be a serious problem for wheat farmers, even at dry land condition. Amount of flooding damage depends on duration flooding, developmental stage, wheat type and variety. Therefore as a factorial experiment in randomized complete design based on winter bread wheat cultivars (Pishtaz, Marvdasht, Shiraz, Zarin, Shahriar, C-81-4, Sardari, Agosta seed, FGS and Azar2) at sta...

This study was carried out to determine grain yield and components of five bread wheat genotypes 20 advanced lines at K?rklareli Tekirda? locations in 2017-2018 cropping year. The experiments were arranged a randomized complete block design with four replications. In the study, (GY), plant height (PH), spike length (SL), number spikelets/spike (SS), grains/spike (KS), weight/spike (KWS), test w...

Drip irrigation can reduce water and fertilizer use; however, the frequency of topdressing required for drip wheat in Huang-Huai-Hai region is still unclear. Through two continuous season field experiments, yield related traits under traditional surface (border irrigation) three fertilization frequencies (DF2, DF3, DF4, that was, twice, or four times same way during growth period) cultivars (Ji...
