two different propagation procedures including aeroponics and soil systems were compared for the minitubers production in potato. the minitubers were evaluated for several quality characters. the plant materials were from three cultivars, agria, marfona and savalan. the plantlets were grown in aeroponics and soil production systems at a plant density of 100 plants per m-2 and stem length, root ...

2 Root systems Definition. Let E ∼= R be a vector space with an inner product 〈·, ·〉. A subset R ⊂ E \ {0} is called root system, if R has the following properties: (R1) R is finite and spans E, (R2) if α ∈ R, then −α ∈ R and ±α are the only multiples of α in R, (R3) R is invariant under the reflection in the hyperplane orthogonal to any α ∈ R (see Fig. 1), i.e., for all α, β ∈ R: sα(β) = β − 2...

The principle of boundary bootstrap plays a significant role in the algebraic study of the purely elastic boundary reflection matrix Ka(θ) for integrable quantum field theory defined on a space-time with a boundary. However, general structure of that principle in the form as was originally introduced by Fring and Köberle has remained unclear. In terms of a new matrix Ja(θ) = √ Ka(θ)/Kā(iπ + θ),...

In 1969, Murray Gell-Mann won the nobel prize in physics “for his contributions and discoveries concerning the classification of elementary particles and their interactions.” He is the scientist who first used the word quark, and he was the first to describe the SU3(C) flavor symmetry of the hadrons. By organizing the particles according to the root system of the lie algebra su3(C) associated t...

background and aims. the knowledge of variations in root canal morphology is critical for a successful endodontic treatment. the purpose of this study was to investigate variations in the root canal system of human mandibular first permanent molars in an iranian population. materials and methods. in this study, 209 mandibular first molar teeth were decalcified, dye-injected, and cleared in orde...

Drought stress is a dominant constraint to crop production. Breeding crops with adapted root systems for effective uptake of water represents a novel strategy to increase crop drought resistance. Due to complex interaction between root traits and high diversity of hydrological conditions, modeling provides important information for trait based selection. In this work we use a root architecture ...

objectives : cleaning and shaping of the root canal system is an important step in endodontic therapy. new instruments incorporate new preparation techniques that can improve the efficacy of cleaning and shaping. the aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of mtwo and race rotary file systems in straightening the canal curvature using only one file or the conventional method. materials an...
