In order to evaluation the effects of soil organic matter and biofertilizer on chickpea quality and biological nitrogen fixation, field experiments were carried out in 2007 and 2008 growing seasons. In this research the effects of different strategies for soil fertilization were investigated on grain yield and yield component, minerals, organic compounds and cooking time of chickpea. Experiment...

PURPOSE This study evaluated the fracture load of customized zirconia abutments with titanium insert according to preparation depths, with or without 5-year artificial aging. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-six identical lithium disilicate crowns (IPS e.max press) were fabricated to replace a maxillary right central incisor and cemented to the customized zirconia abutment with titanium insert on...

The genus Herbaspirillum of the Betaproteobacteria mainly comprises diazotrophic bacteria with a potential for endophytic and systemic colonization of a variety of plants. The plant-associated bacterial isolates N3(T), N5 and N9 were derived from surface-sterilized wheat roots. After phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequence data the isolates could be allocated to the genus Herbaspirillum...

In grassland ecosystems, N and P fertilization often increase plant productivity, but there is no concensus if fertilization affects soil C fractions. We tested effects of N, P and N+P fertilization at 5, 10, 15 g m-2 yr-1 (N5, N10, N15, P5, P10, P15, N5P5, N10P10, and N15P15) compared to unfertilized control on soil C, soil microbial biomass and functional diversity at the 0-20 cm and 20-40 cm...

We study the asymptotic distribution of the eigenvalues of random Hermitian periodic band matrices, focusing on the spectral edges. The eigenvalues close to the edges converge in distribution to the Airy point process if (and only if) the band is sufficiently wide (W ≫ N5/6). Otherwise, a different limiting distribution appears.

The sulfamide functional group is increasingly relevant in both medicinal and bioorganic chemistry. We report here practical access to a series of N2,N5-substituted five-membered cyclosulfamides. The five-membered heterocyclic motif was prepared starting from proteogenic amino acids and chlorosulfonyl isocyanate via the Mitsunobu reaction. Selected chemical and spectral proprieties and the anti...

A new macrocyclic complex DyCl3(LN5)·4H2O (1) has been prepared in which the Dy(III) ion is equatorially bound by an N5-donor macrocycle (LN5). Ac susceptibility data reveal slow relaxation of the magnetisation in zero field below 15 K with a distribution of relaxation rates.

In order to Study the efficacy application of green manure as chickpea pre plant, field experiments were carried out in 2007 and 2008 growing seasons. In this research the effects of different strategies for soil fertilization were investigated on grain yield and yield component, minerals, organic compounds and cooking time of chickpea. Experimental units were arranged in splitsplit plots based...

Algae, plants, bacteria and fungi contain Light-Oxygen-Voltage (LOV) domains that function as blue light sensors to control cellular responses to light. All LOV domains contain a bound flavin chromophore that is reduced upon photon absorption and forms a reversible, metastable covalent bond with a nearby cysteine residue. In Avena sativa LOV2 (AsLOV2), the photocycle is accompanied by an allost...
