Light-based archival tags are increasingly being used on free-ranging marine vertebrates to study their movements using geolocation estimates. These methods use algorithms that incorporate threshold light techniques to determine longitude and latitude. More recently, researchers have begun using sea surface temperature (SST) to determine latitude in temperate regions. The accuracy and applicati...

Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the resistance transgenic papaya populations (PTPs) Papaya ringspot virus-P (PRSV-P). 'Sunrise Solo' plants were produced with gene PRSV-P protein coat, and PRSV mechanically inoculated in greenhouse conditions. presence CP/PRSV homozygosis evaluated by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Selected control transplanted field for agronomic evaluat...

31 Although the relationship between the aboveground net primary production (ANPP) and species 32 diversity (SR) have been widely reported, there is considerable disagreement about the fitting 33 patterns of SR–ANPP, which has been variously described as ‘positive’, ‘negative’, ‘unimodal’, 34 ‘U-shaped’ and so on. Not surprisingly, the effect-factors including precipitation, aridity index and 3...

We evaluated a broad-based PCR assay coupled with high-resolution melt analysis for rapid bacterial identification in patients with bacterial sepsis. With a reference library of 60 clinically relevant bacterial species, 52 positive blood culture samples were tested. Our assay identified 46/52 samples at the species level, with 100% concordance to culture findings.

Reducing the prevalence of smoking in pregnancy is a priority target for health care. We administered a semi-structured questionnaire to mothers in an inner city general practice who were given brief anti-smoking advice during routine antenatal care. Of a cohort of 113 mothers, 52(46%) reported smoking at the start of pregnancy. Six(12%) of these 52 smokers reported no change in smoking habit d...

to evaluate the growth regulatory effect of chlormequat chloride (ccc) under drought stress conditions on three barley cultivars, a field study was conducted under badjgah agro climatic conditions (altitude 1810 m, longitude 52° 46´, and latitude 29° 50´) during 2003-2004 growing season. a randomized complete block based split- split plot of four replications was employed with two moisture leve...

A major earthquake (Mw=7.0) occurred in the Samos Island on 30th of October 2020 at 11:51 UTC. Swarm satellite magnetic data were analysed for 153 days before and 46 after earthquake. Preearthquake postearthquake anomaly search is constrained within Dobrovolsky's Circular Area. Fundamentally, there are 5 steps processing to interpret preparation phase. The first step converting geographical coo...
