drought is one of the most important factors limiting crop yields around the world. drought stress in plants, the change (increase or decrease) in the production of plant proteins. this research was carried out using bread wheat genotypes. for evaluation of leaf protein pattern in wheat, 10 genotypes were assayed with 3 replications under irrigated (non-stress) and rain-fed (stress) conditions....

So far this dissertation has focused on word-level noniterativity. This chapter examines noniterative postlexical phenomena, processes that extend beyond the word. Constraints such as NonFinality make demands of word edges, and it would not be surprising to find that neighboring words are called on to help satisfy these demands through (noniterative) spreading across the word boundary. For exam...

in order to investigate the relationships of some morphological traits at the early stages of three sugar beet cultivars with final yield at varying levels of water regines, a field experiment was carried out in karaj, and mashhad, in 2001-2003.  the objective of this study was to find the relation of some morphological traits of three sugar beet genotypes (7219-p.69, bp-karaj and 7112)  during...

The use of two markers of prosodic finality in French, vowel lengthening and high vowel breathiness/devoicing, were compared among statements and questions of various types (echo-questions, Wh-questions, questions with inverted subject and verb). The comparison focuses on the relation between sentence-final intonation and the other markers of finality. The intonation pattern of statements and W...

An event-related brain potentials (ERPs) experiment was carried out to investigate the time course of lexical stress encoding in language production. Native speakers of Dutch viewed a series of pictures corresponding to bisyllabic names which were either stressed on the first or on the second syllable and made go/no-go decisions on the lexical stress location of those picture names. Behavioral ...

BACKGROUND Medical students undergo significant stress during training which may lead to own suffering or problem in patient care. High level of burnouts and depression is also not uncommon. The transition from preclinical to clinical training has been regarded as crucial to student in relation to the stress. METHODOLOGY An assessment of perceived stress and its relation to general psychopath...

All published rotamer libraries contain some rotamers that exhibit impossible internal atomic overlaps if built in ideal geometry with all hydrogen atoms. Removal of uncertain residues (mainly those with B-factors >/=40 or van der Waals overlaps >/=0.4 A) greatly improves the clustering of rotamer populations. Asn, Gln, or His side chains additionally benefit from flipping of their planar termi...

The phonological vowel and consonant length distinctions in languages such as Hungarian may provide a constraint on the degree to which prosodic structure can influence speech segment duration. Here we show that, like many other languages, Hungarian does mark prosodic structure with durational variation, in particular, utterance-final lengthening. There is an influence of phonological vowel len...
