abstract in order to study the inheritance of grain yield and its components in bread wheat, two cultivars, karchyya(drought and salinity tolerant) and gaspard (sensitive to drought and salinity stress) were crossed.parents together with f1, f2, f3, bc1and bc2 generations were evaluated using a randomized complete block design with three replications in 2008-2009 growing season.grain weight per...

In this paper, we study the mean square convergence of the kernel least mean square (KLMS). The fundamental energy conservation relation has been established in feature space. Starting from the energy conservation relation, we carry out the mean square convergence analysis and obtain several important theoretical results, including an upper bound on step size that guarantees the mean square con...

The well known operator ordering ambiguity could motivate the existence of generations. This possibility is explored by exploiting the relationship between ordering and discretization rules. 1 Wilson fermion as analogy Non Commutative Geometry is not the only area knowing how to get mass terms from nowhere. Lattice theorists learnt time ago a nice trick from Wilson. Consider the forward and bac...

There is considerable evidence for non-genomic transmission between generations of phenotypes induced by environmental exposures during development, although the mechanism is poorly understood. We investigated whether alterations in expression of the liver transcriptome induced in F1 offspring by feeding F0 dams a protein-restricted (PR) diet during pregnancy were passed with or without further...

drought stress is one of the most important environmental stresses that affect yield of bread wheat strongly. considering that the yield achieved with the interaction of a large number of plant traits and environment, so the morphological and agronomical traits, can serve as selection criteria under environmental conditions. by genetic analysis and estimation of inheritance and mode of gene act...

A nonparametric estimator of density gradient, the mean shift, is employed in the joint, spatial-range (value) domain of gray level and color images for discontinuity preserving ltering and image segmentation. Properties of the mean shift are reviewed and its convergence on lattices is proven. The proposed ltering method associates with each pixel in the image the closest local mode in the dens...

In certain signal processing applications there is a need for fast implementations of sorting networks. Digital implementations of sorting networks that rely on a Digital Signal Processor core are not as efficient as their analog counterparts. This paper deals with the comparators for which simple analog implementations exist that employ operational amplifier-based adders, logarithmic and antil...

Nucleotide diversity was examined at mitochondrial COI and r16S2 loci in eight Glossina swynnertoni Austen collections from northern Tanzania and from a culture maintained by the International Atomic Energy Agency. Eighteen composite haplotypes were observed among 149 flies, two of which were common to all samples and 10 were private. Mean haplotype diversity was 0.59 and nucleotide diversity w...

The amount and pattern of genetic variability in a geographically structured population at equilibrium under the joint action of migration, mutation, and random genetic drift is studied. The monoecious, diploid population is subdivided into panmictic colonies that exchange migrants. Self-fertilization does not occur; generations are discrete and nonoverlapping; the analysis is restricted to a s...

Evolution at a single multiallelic locus under arbitrary weak selection on both fertility and viability is investigated. Discrete, nonoverlapping generations are posited for autosomal and X-linked loci in dioecious populations, but monoecious populations are studied in both discrete and continuous time. Mating is random. The results hold after several generations have elapsed. With an error of ...
