Hevea brasiliensis is a natural source of rubber and an important plantation tree species in Malaysia. Leaf blight disease caused by Fusicoccum substantially reduces the growth and performance of H. brasiliensis. The aim of this study was to use a combination of both morphological characteristics and molecular data to clarify the taxonomic position of the fungus associated with leaf blight dise...

A segmentation technique is used to segment the diseased portion of a leaf. Based on the segmented area texture and color feature, disease can be identified by classification technique. There are many segmentation techniques such as Edge detection, Thresholding, K-Means clustering, Fuzzy C-Means clustering, Penalized Fuzzy C-Means, Unsupervised segmentation. Segmentation of diseased area of a p...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Photosynthetic thermotolerance (PT) is important for plant survival in tropical and sub-tropical savannas. However, little is known about thermotolerance of tropical and sub-tropical wild plants and its association with leaf phenology and persistence. Longer-lived leaves of savanna plants may experience a higher risk of heat stress. Foliar Ca is related to cell integrity of ...

Gray Hill (1933) stated that while the child's physical development may be arrested by severe rheumatic heart disease, most patients admitted to hospital in the active state of rheumatism or chorea are little below normal height and weight, and not uncommonly they are tall and well grown. With rest in bed the weight approached normal within a few months. The long-term effect on nutrition is by ...
