Thirteen fatty acids were identified from the pulps of four Tunisian Ziziphus jujuba ecotypes (Sfax, Choutrana, Mahres and Mahdia), using capillary gaseous chromatography method. These oils presented 8.31% to 12.35% of dry weights. Compared to the other ecotypes, Mahres and Choutrana were the richest of the oleic acid. The palmitic acid was the most important compound of the Sfax ecotype. Unsat...

In order to investigate light and temperature effects on germination of different ecotypes of wild mustard  (Sinapis arvensis L.), seeds were collected from four regions: Fars, West Azarbayjan, Khouzestan and Mazandaran Provinces. Seed size and weight, difference of dormancy state among the ecotypes, seed germination in differential light and temperature conditions were studied. The results sho...

The standard analysis in macroeconomics depends on the assumption of the representative agent. However, when the degree of uncertainty becomes significant, we cannot ignore a simple fact that the macroeconomy consists of a large number of heterogeneous agents. In this paper, we demonstrate the importance of the combinatory aspect. Specifically, the effectiveness of policy necessarily weakens as...

Background: The rate of nosocomial infection appears to depend on whether it is calculated using the Center for Disease Control (CDC) or carrier state criteria. The objective of this study was to differentiate between primary endogenous (PE), secondary endogenous (SE) and exogenous (EX) infections, and to compare this classification with CDC criteria for nosocomial infections. Methods: ...

AIM The current study was the first of its kind taken upon indigenous ecotypes of the Karnataka in order to unravel the diversity details at 20 chicken microsatellite regions. MATERIALS AND METHODS 210 indigenous chicken belonging to six districts of Bangalore and Mysore division formed the target sample for the present study. The genomic deoxyribonucleic acid was isolated by phenol chlorofor...

Two-dimensional (2-D) gel electrophoresis and peptide mass fingerprinting were used to investigate the natural variation in the proteome among 8 Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes, of which 3 were previously shown to display atypical responses to environmental stress. Comparison of 2-D maps demonstrated that only one-quarter of spots was shared by all accessions. On the other hand, only 15% of the 2...

in order to evaluate drought tolerance of some aegilops triuncialis ecotypes a factorial experiment based on a completely randomized design was conducted under non-stress and drought stress (irrigation until 50% of heading) condition in the greenhouse of mohaghegh ardabili university in 2012. drought tolerance and susceptibility indices for grain yield were calculated and principal component an...

Understanding the emergence of species through the process of ecological speciation is a central question in evolutionary biology which also has implications for conservation and management. Lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) is renowned for the occurrence of different ecotypes linked to resource and habitat use throughout North America. We aimed to unravel the fine genetic structure of the four...

karim as a new line (hamam-4: t.aest/sprw's'//ca8055/3/bacanora86 icw92-0477-1ap-1ap-4ap-1ap-0ap) was evaluated at gachsaran agricultural research station in 2004-2005. it was selected for its high grain yield (3975 kg ha-1) and included in advance yield trial in gachsaran, khoramabad, gonbad, moghan and ilam field stations in next growing season. average yield of this line and check ...

The effect of climate change on phenology and growth is less understood for belowground plant tissues than aboveground tissues, particularly in high-latitude regions. Ecotypes within a species adapted to locality may display different responses change. We established two common garden plots the Arctic tundra north Brooks Range northern Alaska. Three ecotypes Eriophorum vaginatum along latitudin...
