in order to investigate the effect of water deficit irrigation and natural products on vegetative characteristics of three varieties of chickpea, a field experiment was performed as split-split plot experiment in a randomized complete block design with three replications during 2011 growing season in shahrood (miami). the main plot was drought stress in four levels including normal irrigation (...

Let A be a noetherian local ring, and let C in PA be a family of curves, flat over A. We showed in an earlier paper how to associate to C a locally free sheaf N on PA, and we showed that two families of curves C,C′ are in the same biliaison class if and only if the corresponding sheaves N,N ′ are pseudoisomorphic (generalization of the theorem Rao). In this paper we show how to find all the fla...

We present the STack ARchitecture (STAR) automaton. It is a fixed structure, multiaction, reward-penalty learning automaton, characterized by a star-shaped state transition diagram. Each branch of the star contains D states associated with a particular action. The branches are connected to a central "neutral" state. The most general version of STAR involves probabilistic state transitions in re...

T o improve midfacial soft-tissue sagging, it is sometimes necessary to release the zygomatic and upper masseteric retaining ligaments in the sub-superficial musculoaponeu-rotic system (SMAS) plane. Release of these ligaments needs to be done carefully to avoid any injuries to the branches of the facial nerve. Some of the zygomatic branches run toward the zygomaticus major muscle and are locate...

A new taxon of conifers (Coricladus quiteriensis) is described based on megafloristic remains from the roofshale level at the Quiteria Outcrop (Rio Bonito Formation-Lower Permian-Southern Parana Basin-Rio Grande do Sul-Brazil). This megafloristic community is included in the Botrychiopsis Zone--Botrychiopsis valida Sub-Zone (Kungurian/Roadian). The assemblage, preserved as impressions, do not p...

Phylogenetic analysis of the haemagglutinin (HA) gene shows that the influenza A(H1N1)2009 viruses collected in Hong Kong clustered in two main branches characterised by the E391E and E391K amino acids. The main branch E391K evolved in two sub-branches with N142D and S202T mutations that first appeared in March and July 2010, respectively, with the latter becoming the predominant strain. These ...

We study data on variation in 52 worldwide populations at 377 autosomal short tandem repeat loci, to infer a demographic history of human populations. Variation at di-, tri-, and tetranucleotide repeat loci is distributed differently, although each class of markers exhibits a decrease of within-population genetic variation in the following order: sub-Saharan Africa, Eurasia, East Asia, Oceania,...

In his celebrated Tutte l’Opere d’Architettura published over the period 1537–1575 Sebastiano Serlio introduced four techniques for constructing ovals which have thereafter been applied by many architects across Europe. Using various geometric forms (i.e. the triangle, square, and circle) as a basis they produced ovals made up from four circular arcs. This paper analyses both Serlio’s construct...

Cubic projection can be utilized to divide 360° images into multiple rectilinear images, with little distortion. However, the existing saliency prediction models fail integrate semantic information of these images. In this paper, we address by proposing an intra- and inter-reasoning graph convolutional network for on (SalReGCN360). The whole framework contains six sub-networks, each which two b...

Line-mixing effects have been studied in the ν 1 Q Q K (K from 0 to 10) sub branches of methyl chloride (CH 3 Cl) perturbed by nitrogen (N 2). Laboratory Fourier transform spectra have been recorded at room temperature for various pressures of atmospheric interest. In order to accurately model these spectra, a theoretical approach accounting for line-mixing effects is necessary and proposed in ...
