no domestic availability to breeder turkey stocks and turkey hatching eggs prompted the present experiment that aimed to evaluate the feasibility of a conventional artificial insemination (ai) procedure in british united turkey (but) for the first time in iran. broiler turkeys were restrictedly fed, grown for 46 weeks, and used for the current study (10 turkey toms and 24 turkey hens in total)....

Rakstā aplūkots Jāņa Mauliņa vēsturiskais romāns “Pēdas”, pievēršot uzmanību tā tapšanas apstākļu kontekstam. Romāns publicēts 1980. gadā, tajā atspoguļota situācija 17. gadsimta pirmajā pusē Vid­zemes austrumu daļā. Sižeta pamatā ir stāsts par zemnieku pretestību kungiem, alegoriski saistīta ar latviešu situāciju padomju okupācijas laikā. Tādējādi romānu iespējams interpretēt postkoloniālā dis...

In a recent paper [Rojas, Santos, Sorensen: ACM ToMS 34 (2008), Article 11] an efficient method for solving the Large-Scale Trust-Region Subproblem was suggested which is based on recasting it in terms of a parameter dependent eigenvalue problem and adjusting the parameter iteratively. The essential work at each iteration is the solution of an eigenvalue problem for the smallest eigenvalue of t...

We present extensive Monte Carlo simulations, showing that cold antihydrogen (H) atoms are produced when antiprotons (p) are gently heated in the side wells of a nested Penning trap. The observed H with high energies, that had seemed to indicate otherwise, are instead explained by a surprisingly effective charge-exchange mechanism. We shed light on the previously measured field-ionization spect...

BACKGROUND Turkey reproduction is by artificial insemination using pooled semen so there is interest in storing semen. Fertilizing capacity declines after six hours storage, possibly due to poor sperm mobility. Prostaglandins (PG) affect mammalian sperm motility, but avian sperm has not been widely studied. For this study, levels of PG E1, E2, and F2 alpha in turkey seminal plasma and sperm ext...

Dengue fever (DF) is amosquitoborne disease spread by female Aedes mosquito. transmission depends on the changing of climatic parame- ters like temperature, humidity, rainfall, as well congestion in an area, i.e., where population density high. In this review, we have highlighted reasons occurrence DF and methods for early detection same. Symptoms are key points to diagnose dengue patients. Man...

[1] On 15 July 2004, the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) on board the EOS Aura mission was launched. One of OMI’s priorities is to continue the record of high spatial resolution ozone total column measurements provided by the various Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) instruments since 1978. To this end, it is essential to estimate the errors affecting OMI ozone total column measurements...
