East African banana ( Musa sp.) breeding efforts have focused mainly on enhancing ‘Matooke’ productivity through the development of high-yielding, pathogen-resistant cultivars with adequate stability to contribute regional food security. Before a program can recommend promising for release, they must pass sensory screens; be evaluated in target population environments; and data analyzed yield, ...

We propose a novel approach to confine light in a silica microfiber (MF) cavity using a lattice-constant-varying nanohole array. The MF cavity integrated with an optimally designed nanohole array produces Q-factors ~ 7×10 in the near infrared region while its mode volume remains ~ (λe). Our MF cavity of enhanced performance will find potential applications in fiber lasers, nonlinear fiber optic...

Hashitoxicosis is a transient period of hyperthyroid state in patient with Hashimoto thyroiditis. Ii not common condition. Exophthalmos usually bilateral disease commonly associated Graves's hyperthyroidism. It rarely occurs thyroiditis or hashitoxicosis. Unilateral exophthalmos less presentation ophthalmopathy. So, we present this case male thyroiditis, who presented unilateral and Hashitoxico...

via time slices which involve only nine information symbols, viz. u t ; u t01 ; 1 1 1 ; u t08. From the time slices for the phases that are multiples of 4 it follows that information symbol u t08 does not contribute to the corresponding output. This information symbol does not contribute to the outputs in the following time instants either; hence, we do not have to store it! Thus the Kötter–Var...

INTRODUCTION Barium, a heavy divalent alkaline metal, has long been known to cause human toxicity. The common mode is accidental ingestion and the common compound is Barium carbonate. Here we report an incident of food poisoning in 27 law enforcement personnel with rapidly developing sequelae and a high mortality due to ingestion of Barium carbonate contaminated flour. CASE PRESENTATION One m...

During the great 3 May 1887 Sonoran earthquake (surface rupture end-to-end length: 101.8 km; MW = 7.5±0.3), an array of three north-south striking Basin and Range Province faults (from north to south Pitáycachi, Teras, and Otates) snapped along the western margin of the Sierra Madre Occidental plateau. My detailed fi eld survey of the Teras fault and the 1887 earthquake rupture zone along this ...

The M dwarf V374 Peg (M4) is believed to lie near the theoretical mass threshold for fully convective interiors. Its rapid rotation (P = 0.44 d) along with its intense magnetic field point towards magnetocentrifugal acceleration of a coronal wind. In this work, we investigate the structure of the coronal wind of V374 Peg by means of three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) numerical simula...
