which holds for mi non-negative integers and Re (a + |m|) < 1. Accordingly, hypergeometric series with integral parameter differences have been called Karlsson–Minton type hypergeometric series; other results for such series may be found in [C, G1, G2, S1, S2]. In recent work [R], we have derived a very general reduction formula for series of Karlsson–Minton type. We recall it in its most gener...

The aim of this study was to develop a method for estimating the chronological age of Indian adults based on the relationship between age and various morphological variables of canine teeth, obtained using orthopantomographs. Orthopantomographs of 120 selected patients were digitized, and radiographic images of the right maxillary canine in each case were processed using a computer aided drafti...

Echographic dimensions of the aortic root and left atrium were compared in 170 patients in order to assess dilation of the left atrium with reference to the relatively nondistensible fibrous aortic root. In 50 patients without cause for left atrial or aortic enlargement, the ratio of left atrial/aortic root dimension was 0. 87-1.11. In 80 patients with known cause for left atrial enlargement, t...

a growth chamber study was carried out to evaluate the allelopahtic effects of shoot and root water extract of hoary cress (cardaria draba) on seed germination and seedling characteristic of sorghum (sorghum bicolor). the study was conducted based on completely randomized design with four replications in research laboratory of faculty of agriculture, university of birjand in 2008. treatments we...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Studies of the plasticity of functional root traits involved in resource acquisition have focused mainly on root length without considering such 'morphological components' as biomass allocation, specific root length, root fineness, and tissue density that affect root length. The plasticity of the above components in response to nitrate supply was studied in each root order o...

in dry region, root systems play a major roll in controlling plant growth and yield due to their importance in absorbtion of water and nutrients. in order to evaluate the morphological characteristics of root chickpea and obtaining proper morphological makers for screening drought resistant genotypes, four experiments were conducted in different phenological stages of growth including, seedling...
