The Polo-like protein kinases (Plks) are a conserved family of enzymes that play a variety of roles in the passage of cells through M phase (for reviews see Glover et al., 1998; Nigg, 1998). Named after the Drosophila polo gene originally identified through a recessive maternal effect lethal mutation, conserved Plk homologues have been identified in yeast, Xenopus, C. elegans and mammals. The i...

It has previously been shown (Endow and Glover 1979), that polytenization of the ribosomal genes in D. melanogaster Ore-R X/Y cells and in hybrid X/X cells (Endow 1980) involves replication of genes predominantly from one of the cell's two nucleolus organizers. This analysis takes advantage of strain-specific differences in X and Y chromosome rDNA hybridization patterns detected using the South...

• The use of waste polyethylene as a sustainable additive to asphalt binder was experimentally investigated with the DSR. Plastic-type, source, and experimental condition have limited influence on measured scattered results. Three different rheological behaviors were observed identified by using Black Diagram. Glover-Rowe parameter is sensitive tool discriminate plastic modified binders. Analys...

Bottle gourd is an important vegetable crop that fetches recurrent income from farmers. The present investigation was carried out during the kharif season of 2019 to study incidence prevailing four insect pests bottle in relation weather. seasonal major such as Aulacophora foveicollis Lucas, Bactrocera cucurbitae Coquillett, Aphis gossypii Glover and Bemicia tabaci Gennadius studied. fruit infe...

Investigations on the population dynamics of aphid Aphis gossypii Glover Bt (G.Cot.Hy.8 BG II) and non-Bt (G.Cot.Hy.8) were carried out at Main Cotton Research Station, Navsari Agricultural University, Surat, Gujarat during Kharif, 2020-21. The incidence aphids initiated in first week July (27th SW) cotton hybrid second (28th continued till crop harvest January (2nd both hybrids. peak activity ...
