72 m9 sis performed with WL obtained 83.7% of correct classification. RMSAC and RMSECV are lower in the EFA model. Length values predicted by PLS models were regressed on observed otolith length for both EFA and WL7 shape descriptions. PLS model generated values much efficiently related with measured lengths. In both cases a significant high correlation was found (puncorr.<0.01); EFA model show...

MATERIAL AND METHODS Longitudinal study of a representative cohort of caucasic infants born a term in Aragon (n=1.099). Standard deviation scores (z-scores) for weight, length and body mass index (BMI) have...

light as an important environmental factor, influences many aspects of plant growth and development. leaves are different in some characters including stomatal behavior under shade or light conditions. in this study, the effects of different levels of light intensity on stomatal behavior of two rose cultivars, ‘gulmira’ and ‘red one’, were evaluated under controlled conditions. to obtain differ...

introduction during the last decades interest in organic production of seed specially for medicinal plants take into consideration because of higher quality of organic products (hermes, 2010). seed germination is one of the principal stages in the plant life cycle and seeds with higher quality and vigour resulted in more pronounced seedlings growth and development. therefore, investigation of a...
