Algal mats can hinder the adhesion of the tube feet of sea urchins. This leads to the hypothesis that the restriction of sea urchin feeding activity by wave action can potentially be enhanced by the presence of algal mats, which will facilitate the survival of kelp recruits at sites with wave action in urchin barrens. To evaluate the potential anti-attachment effect of algal mats on sea urchins...

Fig, 1: Structure of phenylaceticacid hydrazones and 2-chlorophenylsemicarbazones. Antidepressant activity was evaluated in albino rats weighing 100 to 120 g, by Porsolt forcecll swimming test (4). Rats were individually placed in plexiglass cylinders (height 40 cm; diameter 18 cm), containing 15 cm of water maintained at 25°C. After 15 minutes they were removed to a 30°C drying room for 30 min...

A field experiment was conducted during Kharif season-2019 at Agricultural Research Station, Chintamani, Karnataka. The consisted of four levels spacing (45 × 15, 45 30, 60 and 30 cm) three fertilizer (40:20:20, 60:40:40 80:60:60 kg NPK ha-1) to determine the influence different on growth yield chia (Salvia hispanica L). arranged in a statistical design Factorial Randomized Complete Block Desig...

A field experiment was conducted to examine the effects of different depths ofnitrogen (N) fertiliser placements on N accumulation, remobilisation and NO3−-Ncontent in soil of rainfed wheat. Nitrogen was applied on the surface (D1) and inthe 10 cm (D2), 20 cm (D3) and 30 cm (D4) soil layers from 2010 to 2012.Compared with D1 and D2, D3 and D4 treatments obtained significant higher Ndistribution...

Intervention: The intervention consisted of five weeks of daily sessions of light treatment in the participant’s home. Participants were advised to complete their session before 10:00 each morning, sitting at a distance of 40 cm with the head directed towards the light. The treatment sessions lasted for one hour a day (intensity: 10000 lux at 40 cm) while the placebo involved dim red light for ...
