Lippia citriodora H.B.K. is a valuable medicinal plant of Verbenaceae family. This study was calculated to evaluate potential role of salicylic acid (SA) in diminish the harmful effects of drought stress on L. citriodora plants. SA (0.5 and 1 mM) was used to L. citriodora plants grown under stressed (5, 10, 15 and 20% PEG) and unstressed conditions. Fresh weight (FW) and relative water content ...

The distributions P(X) of singular thermodynamic quantities, on an ensemble of d-dimensional quenched random samples of linear size L near a critical point, are analyzed using the renormalization group. For L much larger than the correlation length ξ, we recover strong self-averaging (SA): P(X) approaches a Gaussian with relative squared width RX~(L/ξ)−d. For L≪ξ we show weak SA (RX decays with...

An easy and fast pathway in preparation of organo-functionalized silica in nanosize range withphenyl-terminated group via co-condensation method is reported. Fourier transform infrared(FTIR) spectra confirmed the grafting process and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) imagecorroborated formation of nanosized material. Applicability of phenyl-modified nanosilica wasexamined as a sorbent in dispe...

1 Definition of the Adjoint Let V be a complex vector space with an inner product < , and norm , and suppose that L : V → V is linear. If there is a function L * : V → V for which Lx, y = x, L * y (1.1) holds for every pair of vectors x, y in V , then L * is said to be the adjoint of L. Some of the properties of L * are listed below. Proof. Introduce an orthonomal basis B for V. Then find the m...

It is well known that the Galois group of an extension L/F puts constraints on the structure of the relative ideal class group Cl(L/F ). Explicit results, however, hardly ever go beyond the semisimple abelian case, where L/F is abelian (in general cyclic) and where (L : F ) and #Cl(L/F ) are coprime. Using only basic parts of the theory of group representations, we give a unified approach to th...

a study was conducted to standardize production and postharvest handling of lily (lilium longifolium l. cv. mero star). in production trial, three plant densities viz.10, 20 and 30 cm between plants in 60 cm spaced rows and two planting depths viz.7.5 and 15 cm were compared. increased plant growth, yield and quality was recorded when plants were grown at a close spacing of 10 cm with 15 cm pla...

legionella pneumophila ( l. pneumophila ) is a gram-negative bacterium which causes ‎legionnaires’ disease as well pontiac fever. the legionella infections in patients suffering from ‎neutropenia- as a common complication of cancer chemotherapy- can distribute rapidly. we ‎aimed to detection of l. pneumophila in haematological malignancy suffering patients with ‎nuetropenic fever by targeting t...
