lipids in liver wet and dry matter, liver moist and dry matter and their relationships were investigated based on species, sex and age in cows, buffaloes, sheep and goats. mean percentage of lipids in liver wet and dry matter and liver dry matter in cows were 3.60%, 1.10%, 29.70%, and for buffaloes were 5.30%, 1.55%, 29.20%, sheep 3.00%, 0.83%, 27.90%, and goats 2.910%, 1.55% and 28.40%, respec...

Dry matter intake (DMI) is fundamentally important in nutrition because it establishes the amount of nutrients available to an animal for health and production. Actual or accurately estimated DMI is important for the formulation of diets to prevent underfeeding or overfeeding of nutrients and to promote efficient nutrient use. Underfeeding of nutrients restricts production and can affect the he...

Hamartoma of the tuber cinereum is a well-recognized cause of central precocious puberty. We report three patients with an isodense, nonenhancing mass within the interpeduncular cistern identified by CT. In a fourth patient, the CT scan was normal. MR imaging was obtained in all cases and demonstrated a sessile or pedunculated mass of the posterior hypothalamus arising from the region of the tu...

BACKGROUND Neuroimaging studies of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) have previously focused mainly on tubers or subependymal nodules. Subtle pathological changes in the structure of the brain have not been studied in detail. Computationally intensive techniques for reliable morphometry of brain structure are useful in disorders like TSC, where there is little prior data to guide selection of re...

Abstract As part of developing a routine potato cultivars resistance test to Meloidogyne chitwoodi , both the effect nematode density ( P i) and pot size on growth, tuber yield, quality infestation level were studied in glasshouse conditions. The study was carried out four experiments using cv. Desiree as control seven genotypes with single gene M. 1 genotype, Globodera pallida . Plants inocula...

There is evidence that chloride (Cl―) can lead to both an improved hydration and water use efficiency in plants due its osmotic properties. The potato crop widely assumed be sensitive Cl―. This based on studies which found tuber yield or starch reductions following a Cl― fertilization. However, there are also contradictory reports could not find any detrimental effect of fertilization plant dev...

Th e study was focused on evaluation of SUBSTOR – Potato model and its utilization in potato growing management in the Czech Republic. Th e experimental fi eld used for the model evaluation was located in Žabčice – South Moravia region with altitude of 179 meters above the sea level. Tuber yield served as reference for the model evaluation. Nine years experimental data set (1994 – 2002) was use...
