in order to map qtls controlling phonological traits of barley under normal and drought stress conditions, an experiment was conducted by 72 doubled-haploid lines and their two parents (steptoe and morex), at the research farm, college of agriculture, university of zabol, in 2011. the experiment was arranged in completely randomized block designs with three replications under normal irrigation ...

background and objective: in this study, we explored expression rate, some biomarkers affecting the prognosis of the breast carcinoma, and the relationship between these markers and clinicopathologic features of the disease as well as the relationship between each of these markers through a tissue array technique. materials and methods: this study was an observational and cross-sectional study....

pyramiding genes related to grain quality and resistance through marker assisted selection (mas) is an important approach in rice breeding programs. marker-assisted selection can be used for monitoring the presence or absence of these genes in breeding populations and can be combined with conventional breeding approaches. this study is a part of cultivar development program in iran through inte...

We develop in this letter a framework of empirical gain maximization (EGM) to address the robust regression problem where heavy-tailed noise or outliers may be present response variable. The idea EGM is approximate density function distribution instead approximating truth directly as usual. Unlike classical maximum likelihood estimation that encourages equal importance all observations and coul...
