Brassica rapa is an important oilseed crop in Pakistan. It a rich source of oil and contains 40%–46% oil. In addition, its meal has 38%–40% protein. Given their high levels erucic acid glucosinolate, mustard rapeseed unhealthy as regular cooking A dire need to exploit the genetic variability germplasm necessary improve performance cultivars. The line × tester analysis helped estimate various ty...

We introduce a linear analogue of Lauchli's semantics for intuitionistic logic. In fact, our result is a strengthening of L auchli's work to the level of proofs, rather than provability. This is obtained by considering continuous actions of the additive group of integers on a category of topological vector spaces. The semantics, based on functorial polymorphism, consists of dinatural transfor...

The ratification of the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants is a departure point for several considerations on their presence in environmental matrices. In this paper, the Italian situation is presented with emphasis on the most toxic compounds--chemicals with dioxin-like toxic action, and the activity in the area of interest of the Istituto Superiore di Sanità. Biotic, as wel...

For the past several years we have been working with models of benzene distribution and metabolism, principally in the rat, but more recently in humans. Our biologically related objectives have been primarily to assist our laboratory-based colleagues in their quest for understanding of the mechanisms by which benzene exerts its toxic action. A secondary goal has been to develop or adapt models ...

Dedicated to the memory of Moez Alimohamed Abstract We introduce a linear analogue of LL auchli's semantics for intuitionistic logic. In fact, our result is a strengthening of LL auchli's work to the level of proofs, rather than provability. This is obtained by considering continuous actions of the additive group of integers on a category of topological vector spaces. The semantics, based on fu...

Electrophysiological and biochemical studies suggest that VIP may exert a facilitating action in the neocortical local circuitry. In the present study, we examined the actions of VIP and VIP + norepinephrine (NE) on somatosensory cortical neuron responses to direct application of the putative transmitters acetylcholine (ACh) and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Spontaneous and transmitter-induce...

Lodging is one of the most important factors that affect wheat final yield. Emmer [Triticum turgidum subsp. dicoccum (Schrank ex Schübl.) Thell.] a likely gene source to improve durum [T. L. (Desf.) Husn.]; however, it highly susceptible lodging. The genetic studies traits related lodging in crosses × emmer remains largely understudied. Here, we used progenies (six generations) derived from two...
