This study offers evidence for an environmental effect on languages while relying on continuous linguistic and continuous ecological variables. Evidence is presented for a positive association between the typical ambient humidity of a language's native locale and that language's degree of reliance on vowels. The vowel-usage rates of over 4000 language varieties were obtained, and several method...

Abstract Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is one of the most important grain legumes in world, but its current and future production threatened due to increased incidence drought heat stress. To address this challenge, an integrated crop improvement strategy encompassing breeding, genomics, physiology agronomy required. Here, we review physiological traits known confer adaptation chickpea identify...

Lyophilization, the removal of water by freezing and then volatilization at low pressure and temperature, has been employed as a standard long-term preservation method for many filamentous fungi. The method outlined involves the use of standard shelf freeze-drying and skimmed milk as a suspending solution/lyoprotectant. This approach has been employed to freeze-dry the majority of the 50,000 fu...

in the present work, deoxidation and refining of 316lvm steel (low carbon vacuum melted) during the vacuum induction melting process was studied. this grade of stainless steel is one of the most important materials in medical applications. vacuum deoxidation by carbon is the first stage of 316lvm stainless steel production process. in this stage, aluminum must be absent to avoid killing the c-o...

purpose: to evaluate the effect of vacuum and flow rate on endothelial cell loss after high versus low vacuum phacoemulsification. methods: this randomized clinical trial was performed on 60 eyes of 60 patients with moderate lens opacity (nuclear sclerosis 3+). all surgeries were performed by one experienced surgeon using stop and chop technique with sovereign white star machine (amo). patients...
