The adaptive responses of crop genotypes and patterns of genotype x location (G x L) interaction are important to crop improvement as they are the basis for selection for specific adaptation and for elucidation of the causes of G x L interaction. Their legitimate assessment, however, requires yield data for the test genotypes for a large number of sites and over multiple years. Such data are se...

BACKGROUND Air nicotine monitoring is a well-known procedure for estimation of exposure to second hand smoke. Few research studies were realized in Romania to evaluate environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) exposure of humans in different public places. The levels of airborne nicotine from environmental tobacco smoke and urinary cotinine and nicotine levels of some subjects were analyzed. In order t...

the study comparatively identified the benefits of mobile telephone to users in selected rural and urban locations in obio/akpor local government area of rivers state, nigeria. stratified and simple random sampling techniques were used in selecting 60 rural and 60 urban phone users to have a total sample size of 120 respondents. structured questionnaire was used to generate data that were analy...

values v♯ can now contain basic values, abstract locations h (which can be summary nodes k or precise abstract locations l), the special nil, and the special abstraction ⊠. We update the definition of domain and codomain of membranes as expected: dom (h → h1 +...+ hn) = {h} codom (h → h1 +...+ hn) = {h1,... , hn} dom (νh) = ∅ codom (νh) = {h} dom (M) = ⋃ m∈M dom (m) codom (M) = ⋃ m∈M codom (m) ...

Wheat ( L.) breeding programs test experimental lines in multiple locations over multiple years to get an accurate assessment of grain yield and yield stability. Selections in early generations of the breeding pipeline are based on information from only one or few locations and thus materials are advanced with little knowledge of the genotype × environment interaction (G × E) effects. Later, la...

in the present study, twenty two selected lines from eleven iranian eggplant (solanum melongena l.) landraces along with varamin landrace, as control, were studied in a randomized complete block design with three replications in three locations (karaj, varamin and dezful). sum of yield and marketing score for each line was recorded. analysis of variance for yield showed significant differences ...
