poor stand establishment of canola (brassica napus l.) under flatland mechanized planting and crust-forming soil is a major problem for farmers in central iran. previous research there showed that irrigated cotton emergence on crust-forming soils under flatland planting can be significantly improved using a double-disk planter with zero-pressure press wheel tires and no crust-breaking. in that ...

for the publication of this case. There are, however, more important reasons, as the case presents several unusual features. The patient, H. V. D., male, tea-planter, born and lived almost continuously in India, married, was admitted into the hospital for the investigation of a ' painful left heel' and bouts'of painless hematuria, which he stated followed the treatment given him for the painful...

These are the graphs of the diffusion property change due to planter flexion of the right ankle joint. White bars are the right to left ratio of diffusion properties including FA, λ1, λ2, λ3, and ADC at resting state. Gray bars are those at the contraction in GCM (a), and passive elongation in AT (b). In GCM, statistically significant elevations are seen in FA (P<0.05 *), λ1 (P<0.01 **), λ2 (P<...

Fig. 1.Claw like deformity of both hands, right sided tibial hemimelia with hypoplastic three toed foot and a transverse cleft on planter side of left foot. Tibial hemimelia-split hand/foot syndrome (TH-SHFM) is a rare constellation of multiple congenital malformations which includes Ectrodactyly (Lobster claw deformity or Cleft hand/foot) with a wide range of phenotypes of absent tibia/tibial ...

PROBLEM: Eelgrass (Zostera marina) seeds are being used in a variety of both smalland large-scale restoration activities and have been successfully used to initiate recovery of eelgrass in the Virginia seaside coastal lagoons, which lost eelgrass in the 1930s ‘wasting disease’ pandemic (Orth et al. 2006a). However, a major bottleneck with the use of seeds has been the relatively low rate of see...

A cane harvesting system which eliminates the use of chain slings has been developed on Illovo's mill-cum-planter estate. A semi-mechanised "split harvesting system" has been adopted. Conventional type trailers are used for infield haulage which off-load loose cane into windrows on the loading banks. Grabloaders then transload the cane from the windrow into "Hilo" cane lorries for transportatio...

Desmoplastic melanoma (DM) is a type of spindle cell melanoma characterized by the absence of pigment. The clinical diagnosis of DM represents a challenge for the practitioner and the pathologists because it can mimic benign or malignant skin tumors and even inflammatory skin disorders. We here discuss a case of a patient presented with multiple nodular lesions of the lower extremity following ...

Rapeseed as one the most crops is the basic needs of human feeding in order to produce oil. A field experiment was conducted to study the effects of different tillage system, seeding method and rates on yield and its components, as well as, seed oil percentage of rapeseed (Brassica napus L. cv. Hyola-401) during 2011-12 growing season at Rice Research Institute of Iran-Department of Ma...
