Common waterhemp is one of the most commonly encountered and troublesome weeds in the midwestern United States. It is well known that water stress adversely affects crop growth and yield; however, the effects of water stress on weed growth and seed production are poorly understood. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of degree and duration of water stress on growth, develop...

Background Primary orthostatic tremor (POT) is a movement disorder characterized by unsteadiness upon standing still due to a tremor affecting the legs. It is a gradually progressive condition with limited treatment options. Impairments in health-related quality of life (HQoL) seem to far exceed the physical disability associated with the condition. Methods A multi-center, mixed-methodology s...

We investigate the electronic characteristics and the absorption spectra of poly(3-octylthiophene), POT, films grown by electrochemical methods onto Au substrates. We discuss the results considering the morphological factor. POT films thickness can be controlled by current density in the electropolymerization process. The film roughness depends on the thickness, being about 12% of film thicknes...

Original scientific paper Pear brandy is one of the most desirable alcoholic beverages across Europe. But of all varieties, the most appreciated is Bartlett pear or Williams’s pear as it is better known. The purpose of this work was to create an objective evaluation of the influence of various construction forms of pot still, (alembic, pot and spheric) on final quality of Williams pear brandy. ...

The plant factory transplanter is a key component of the system. Its operation status directly affects quality and survival rate planted seedlings, which in turn overall yield economic efficiency. To monitor transplanting machine timely manner, primary task to use computerized easy-to-use method units. Inspired by latest developments augmented reality robotics, digital twin model-based data-dri...

The use of mechanization in agriculture addition to increasing rice productivity can also be a strategy overcoming labor scarcity as well the technology and adoption transition from using traditional tools modern tools. transplanter machine is new innovation for some people Central Lampung Regency, such Seputih Agung District, which one sub-districts that received assistance government expected...

In the present study, a novel catalyst was well designed by incorporating the tungstophosphoric acid into the magnetic chitosan, as highly stable composite, in which the iron oxides were used the strong super-magnetic core. The prepared composite was characterized by several methods, including FTIR, XRD, SEM, TEM and EDS and its catalytic activity was examined in a facile, green and highly effi...

The tail-withdrawal circuit of Aplysia provides a useful model system for investigating synaptic dynamics. Sensory neurons within the circuit manifest several forms of synaptic plasticity. Here, we developed a model of the circuit and investigated the ways in which depression (DEP) and potentiation (POT) contributed to information processing. DEP limited the amount of motor neuron activity that...

Mrtasanjivani sura was prepared according to the formulary in an earthen pot and in a glass vessel. The drug fermented in glass vessel was distilled using glass joint distillation apparatus and that fermented in earthen pot was distilled by baka yantra method. The alcohol content in the finished medicine in the glass distilled and baka yantra methods were 3.44% and 4.70% respectively. The medic...
