Soybeans harvested at various stages of maturity and sprouted were evaluated for ascorbic acid and j3-carotene \n the fresh, cooked, canned, frozen, and stored packs. Both vitamins decreased markedly as the beans matured and in creased upon sprouting. Ascorbic acid (mg/lOOg); fresh—30, dry—2, sprouted—11. j8-carotene (mg/ lOOg); fresh—0.35, dry—0.12, sprouted—0.20. Severe ascorbic acid losses (...

A field study was conducted during kharif, 2021 at Regional Agricultural Research Station, Warangal to evaluate the performance of rice varieties under different systems cultivation for central Telangana zone. The treatment consisted three i.e., transplanted system with 15x10 cm spacing, wet direct seeded (Drum seeding) 30x6-8 spacing and dry 30 row in main plots four RNR 15048 (Telangana sona)...

Kinetic assay of seeded growth: The graph shows the variation in intrinsic fluorescence intensity of amyloid fibrils. Fluorescence increases during the seeded aggregation of α-synuclein seeds with α-synuclein monomeric protein (blue curve) but not when α-synuclein seeds are incubated with β-synuclein monomeric protein (black curve), thus showing that no seeded growth occurred in this case.

We study the behaviour of network diffusions based on the PageRank random walk from a set of seed nodes. These diffusions are known to reveal small, localized clusters (or communities), and also large macro-scale clusters by varying a parameter that has a dual-interpretation as an accuracy bound and as a regularization level. We propose a new method that quickly approximates the result of the d...

We examined the distribution, germination, growth and photosynthetic characteristics of two co-existing morphotypes of the pioneer tree Trema micrantha at the Barro Colorado Nature Monument (BCNM), Panama. Morphotypes differed significantly in distribution and in seed characteristics. A ‘large’-seeded morphotype (endocarp mass = 3.83 mg) was associated with treefall gaps in the forest interior,...
