Two field experiments were carried out during the summer seasons of 2000 and 2001, at the Experimental station Farm, Faculty of Agriculture, Alexandria University, at Abies, to investigate the response of potato plants cv. Alpha, to two biofertilizer types (Nitrobein and Halex-2) under four varying percentages NPK; 25%, 50%, 75% and100% from the commercial recommended rates (180-60-96 Kg N-P-K ...

in order to find the superior genotypes and high yielding potato varieties, the experiment was carried out on 33 introduced potato genotypes and varieties based on a complete randomized block design with four replications, in which a number of morphological characteristics were investigated. results of analysis of variance on the recorded traits revealed that the studied genotypes were signific...

BACKGROUND Children with high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who have a slow response to initial chemotherapy (more than 25 percent blasts in the bone marrow on day 7) have a poor outcome despite intensive therapy. We conducted a randomized trial in which such patients were treated with either an augmented intensive regimen of post-induction chemotherapy or a standard regimen of intens...

To determine If patients with rest angina have more severe regional Isehemla than padents with exertlonal aiigln., we compared the severity of left coronary artery (LCA) stenods In 29 patIents with transient anterior chemIc S’ -T changes at rest, and 30 patIents with anterior ST changes only during exertion. The percentage diameter stenosis w measured with Vernier calIpers (2 X lesion diameter ...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Previous studies quantifying moderate and severe carotid stenosis by direct millimeter measures on CT angiography (CTA) did not consider how prevalence and gender may influence classification cutoff values. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three hundred nineteen carotid arteries were evaluated in consecutive patients with known or suspected carotid artery disease. Millimeter measu...

Traditionally, Corydalis tuber has been used for the control of pain including headache, stomach ache, and neuralgia. In the present study, modulation of the Corydalis tuber on glycine-activated ion current in the acutely dissociated periaqueductal gray (PAG) neurons was studied by a nystatin-perforated patch-clamp technique. High concentrations of Corydalis tuber elicited ion current, which wa...

We fabricated a 302 mm diameter low-pass filter made of alumina that has an anti-reflection coating (ARC) with laser-ablated sub-wavelength structures (SWS). The been integrated into and is operating the MUSTANG2 instrument, which coupled to Green Bank Telescope. average transmittance in band between 75 105 GHz 98%. Reflective loss due ARC 1%. difference transmission s- p-polarization states le...

potato virus y (pvy) and potato leafroll virus (plrv) are two major viruses which reduce 10-90 percent of yield and quality of potato tubers. in the present study, the efficiency of different methods, including meristem culture, thermotherapy followed by meristem culture and electerotherapy followed by meristem culture in two cultivars (agria and marfona) infected by plrv or pvy were evaluated....
