Four phosphorus fertilizer rates (0, 30, 60, and 90 kg ha-1) were evaluated for the nine common vetches (Vicia sativa) varieties ,Clima, Hanka, Mikaela, Lujiliana, Marrianum, Mery, Beybi, Nigra, Namoi. Experiments was conducted during winter season of 2019-2020 in Sulaimani governorate at Qlyasan locations. The experiment designed Factorial CRBD (Randomized Complete Block Design) with three rep...

Animal production has moved quite rapidly to a consolidated structure of fewer, larger farms, ranches, and animal feeding units in both developed and developing countries. Driven by economies of scale arising from steady advances in technology, the trend shows no sign of slowing. This new structural concept and features increased concentration of large-scale livestock and specialty crop product...

Transportation systems relying on vehicles to collect data for services such as road condition monitoring are vulnerable to malicious vehicles injecting large amounts of fake data. A particularly serious type of attack is that attackers report fake information about numerous places without actually presenting there. In this paper, we present VProof, a vehicle location proof scheme that enables ...

By living in social groups with potential competitors, animals forgo monopolizing access to resources. Consequently, debate continues over how selection might favour sociality among competitors. For example, several models exist to account for the evolution of shared reproduction in groups. The 'concession model' hypothesizes that dominant reproducers benefit from the presence of subordinates, ...

We used classification images (A. J. Ahumada, Jr., & J. Lovell, 1971) to estimate the perceptual filter in a task designed to assess both local and nonlocal effects upon contrast detection/discrimination. Three observers performed a yes/no detection or discrimination task of a uniform circular decrement (radius = 0.68 deg) near threshold presented for 100 to 400 ms. Stimuli were presented in ri...

Hormesis has been defined as a dose-response relationship in which there is a stimulatory response at low doses, but an inhibitory response at high doses, resulting in a U- or inverted U-shaped dose response. To assess the proportion of studies satisfying criteria for evidence of hormesis, a database was created from published toxicological literature using rigorous a priori entry and evaluativ...

Hanley, Smith, and Hadfield (1998) showed that when participants were asked to recognize famous people from hearing their voice, there was a relatively large number of trials in which the celebrity's voice was felt to be familiar but biographical information about the person could not be retrieved. When a face was found familiar, however, the celebrity's occupation was significantly more likely...

Results 11 patients were directed with systemic JIA and 2 with olygoarthritis. All patients with “JIA” had criteria for diagnosis according ILAR classification. All patients with ‘’systemic JIA’’ had fever, hepatosplenomegaly, generalized lymphadenopathy, arthralgia or arthritis, high level of CRP, ESR, anemia. Patients with ‘’óligoarthritis’’ had monoarthritis. The diagnosis was made at the pl...
