effect of adding melissa officinalis aqueous extract was studied on immune response and performance in 200 ross 308 broiler chicks in a completely randomized design with five treatments and four replicates and 10 observations per replicate. the amounts of 0 (control), 0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2 ml/l lemon balm extract were added in drinking water for 42 days. humoral immunity was evaluated by injection ...

Citrus Huanglongbing (HLB) is becoming the most devastating citrus disease worldwide. Although no known HLB-resistant citrus species or varieties have been identified, some citrus accessions such as rough lemon are reportedly tolerant. To better understand the HLB tolerance or susceptibility mechanisms in citrus, comparative anatomical analyses of tolerant rough lemon and sensitive sweet orange...

An optimum method has been developed for extracting volatile organic compounds (VOCs) which contribute to the aroma of different species of citrus fruit (orange, lemon, lime, and mandarin). Headspace solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME) combined with gas chromatography (GC) coupled with flame ionization detection (FID) is used as a very simple, efficient and nondestructive extraction method. A...

Land-cover change is regarded as the most important global change affecting ecological systems (Vitousek, 1994). Natural landscapes – i.e. those largely unaffected or hardly affected by human activities – are being rapidly transformed into urban and farmland landscapes throughout the world (Foley et al., 2005; Feranec et al., 2010; López and Sierra, 2010). As the characteristics of land-cover h...

We study a dynamic, decentralized lemons market with one–time entry and characterize its set of non–stationary equilibria. This framework offers a theory of how a market suffering from adverse selection recovers over time endogenously; given an initial fraction of lemons, the model provides sharp predictions about how prices and the composition of assets evolve over time. Comparing economies in...

Layoffs, Lemons, Race and Gender This paper expands on Gibbons and Katz (1991) by looking at how the difference in wage losses across plant closing and layoff varies with race and gender. We find that the differences between white males and the other groups are striking and complex. The lemons effect of layoff holds for white males as in Gibbons and Katz model, but not for the other three demog...

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of different levels of dried lemon pulp (DLP) on performance, carcass traits, blood biochemical and immunity parameters of broilers. In this experiment 240 of broilers (Ross-308) were used in a completely randomized design with 4 treatments and 3 replicates (with 20 birds in each replicate) from 1 to 42 days. Experimental diets included: 1) ...

The OntoLex W3C Community Group published its final report on the Lexicon Model for Ontologies (lemon) in May 2016, specifying a suite of vocabularies for the linguistic grounding of ontologies and RDF datasets in general. The Linguistic Metadata (LIME) vocabulary is the lemon module describing coarse-grained metadata about datasets as a whole, to represent resuming information at the level of ...
