A field experiment was conducted during rainy (kharif) season of 2018 and 2019 at the research farm Tamil Nadu Rice Research Institute, Aduthurai, to evaluate impact drip irrigation on rice (Oryza sativa L.) growth, productivity water use efficiency. The experiments were laid out in a strip plot design with 4 varieties/hybrids horizontal 6 regimes vertical 3 replications. findings reveal that 1...

A 9-year-old boy was referred to our pediatric department with symptoms of chronic fatigue, headache, intermittent nausea, and vomiting for 2 months. At admission a weight loss of 2 kg and intermittent subfebril temperature as well as an unspecific tremor of both hands was reported. He had a medical history of erythema migrans 2 years ago treated adequately with amoxicillin for 2 weeks. There w...

We examined patterns of genetic variance and covariance in two traits (i) carbon stable isotope ratio delta13C (dehydration avoidance) and (ii) time to flowering (drought escape), both of which are putative adaptations to local water availability. Greenhouse screening of 39 genotypes of Arabidopsis thaliana native to habitats spanning a wide range of climatic conditions, revealed a highly signi...

Sugar Baby, under strategies irrigation saline water potassium fertilization. The experiment in a randomized block design, 8 × 3 factorial scheme, three replicates, corresponding to eight applied at different phenological stages crop (control - l...

R ecent meta-analysis (1) and systematic review (2) show that high and low birth weight are related in a Ushaped manner to later risk of type 2 diabetes. It is also interesting to denote the positive birth weight/type 2 diabetes associations within the normal weight range. It is now widely accepted that both genetic and environmental factors are engaged in intrauterine growth, glucose tolerance...

OBJECTIVE Postnatal tissue accretion in preterm infants differs from those in utero, affecting body composition (BC) and lifelong morbidity. Length normalized BC data allows infants with different body lengths to be compared and followed longitudinally. This study aims to analyze BC of preterm and term infants during the first six months of life. METHODS The BC data, measured using dual energ...

this experiment was conducted, to study the effect of planting time and planting density on savory (satureja sahendica bornm.) in 2012 in alborz research station, research institute of forests and rangelands, karaj, iran. the experiment was carried out in split plot in time in the form of a randomized complete block design with three replicates. the main plots were planting times in two levels ...

Background. Streptokinase is a routinely used thrombolytic agent that is immunogenic and relatively inefficient toward platelet-rich thrombus, whereas staphylokinase is a poorly studied fibrinolytic agent. Here, the comparative immunogenicity and thrombolytic properties toward arterial platelet-rich thrombus and venous whole blood clots of streptokinase and recombinant staphylokinase were studi...
