Using a seed to rapidly “hit” possible homologies for further examination is a common practice to speed up homology search in molecular sequences. It has been shown that a collection of higher weight seeds have better sensitivity than a single lower weight seed at the same speed. However, huge memory requirements diminish the advantages of high weight seeds. This paper describes a twostage exte...

The measurement of RTS amounts measures a relationship between inputs and outputs in a production structure. There are many different ways to calculate RTS in primal or dual space. But in more realistic cases, governments usually intervene on DMU’s behavior as regulatory agency, this clearly represent a set of limitations and restrictions on behaviors of DMUs, So very few decisions in DMUs are ...

vermicompost can improve physicochemical traits of soil having desirable effect on plant growth and development due to its structural traits and having macro and micro nutrients, plant growth regulators and favorable microorganisms. in order to investigate the effect of interactions between ratios of vermicompost and saline stress on some morphological, physiological and biochemical traits of p...

To evaluate the effect of nitrogen fertilizer amounts on grain yield of forage corn in 2012, a pilot was implemented in Islamic Azad University Agricultural Research Station, Isfahan, as a split plot in a randomized complete block design. Main plots consisted of four levels: control (no fertilization ) , 50 , 100 and 150 kg per ha nitrogen from urea source and subplots , including several varie...

Seed-type vacuolar processing enzyme (VPE) activity is predicted to be essential for post-translational proteolysis of seed storage proteins in the protein storage vacuole of developing seeds. To test this hypothesis, we examined the protein profiles of developing and germinating seeds from Arabidopsis plants containing transposon-insertional knockout mutations in the genes that encode the two ...
