This study aimed to compare the longevity and productive lifetime traits between Shami Hol-stein cows under subtropical conditions, in addition assess effect of age at first calving (AFC), lactation milk yield (FLMY), year season on studied both breeds. The available data included 495 records for 1129 Holstein from birth disposal date during period 1982 2014.The were lifespan (LS), life (PL), c...

Thaumatin-like proteins (TLPs) are induced by a variety of phytopathogens in many plants and several TLPs are allergenic. Previously, we isolated three TLP-encoding cDNAs (Cry j 3.1, Cry j 3.2 and Cry j 3.3) from a cDNA library derived from the pollen of Cryptomeria japonica D. Don. Here, we describe three new TLP cDNAs (Cry j 3.4, Cry j 3.5 and Cry j 3.6). We compared the sequences, the geneti...

Forty years ago, an unusual name— closterovirus—was coined for an unusual group of elongated plant viruses (BarJoseph and Hull, 1974). This essay reflects my personal encounter with these viruses between 1966 and 1986, a period that could be considered the beginning of the emergence of the Closteroviridae as an exciting complex virus family. The first two viruses assigned to this group, Beet ye...

Inrecent efforts to improve the performance ofwhite light-emitting diode (WLEDs), researchers have focused on angular color uniformity (ACU), an effective index for evaluating light quality of WLEDs. Inthis article, we also aim WLED development by applying three phosphor layers in remote structure. The dual-layer (DLP) structure is included research comparison with triple-layer (TLP) terms thei...

Abstract In this study, the dynamics of tendon/top tension riser (TTR) system a tension-leg platform (TLP) are investigated through an experiment and by using absolute nodal coordinate formulation (ANCF). First, model test TLP is conducted in water tank Harbin Engineering University to examine motion response dynamic characteristics tendon TTR. The scale ratio set 1: 66.3. Then, on basis ANCF, ...

Genetic parameters for dairy performance traits were estimated, breeding values for the traits of all breeding sires and cows were predicted and the genetic trends were estimated using the breeding values in the Central Cattle Breeding Station (CCBS). A total of 3,801 records for Bangladeshi Local, 756 records for Red Sindhi and 959 records for Sahiwal covering the period from 1961 to 1997 were...
