T h e n u m b e r o f resistance genes in soybean to soybean cyst nematode (SCN) Heterodera glycines was est imated using progeny f rom a cross of 'Williams 82' x 'Hartwig' (derived f rom 'Forrest '~ x PI 437.654) screened with a four th-genera t ion inbred nematode line der ived f rom a race 3 field popula t ion o f SCN. Numbers o f females developing on roots o f inoculated seedlings were ass...

The objective of this study was to compare anthropometric variables (body weight, height, and percent body fat) and plantarflexion and dorsiflexion range of motion (ROM) between three different groups of women: classical ballet dancers (n=14), volleyball players (n=22) and physically active subjects (n=13). The assumption was that different functional requirements should produce differences in ...

The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of resistance training, static and ballistic stretching and stationary cycling on the range of motion (ROM) and end ROM torque of hip joint flexion, resting tension of the hamstrings and stretch-induced electromyographic (EMG) activity of the hamstrings. Four separate experimental groups performed either 15 min resistance training of the hamst...

It is not easy for the system identification-based reduced-order model ROM and even eigenmode based reduced-order model to predict the limit cycle oscillation generated by the nonlinear unsteady aerodynamics. Most of these traditional ROMs are sensitive to the flow parameter variation. In order to deal with this problem, a support vector machineSVMbased ROM was investigated and the general cons...

The goal of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of arthroscopic lysis of adhesions after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in improving range of motion (ROM) and providing an improvement in knee function. The authors retrospectively examined 19 patients who underwent arthroscopic lysis of adhesions following TKA due to poor ROM. The criterion for lysis was the inability to flex to 90° at 3 mont...
