For one year, a research study was conducted in the citrus fields of Amravati region, MS, India, to examine diversity agrobiont spiders. A total 56 species spiders were identified during study, which belonged 31 genera and 13 families. These found various locations such as ground, litter, crevices, on vegetation. Among spider identified, 21.42% from families Araneidae Salticidae, respectively, ...

Using line method and typical sample method, the plant resources of Jinyin Lake National Wetland Park were investigated in detail. There 62 families, 113 genera 135 species seed plants. 4 families more dominant plants this area. 1 main reasons for diversity The can be divided into 9 areal types 5 forms, which tropical accounted 61.36% total number non-cosmopolitan families. 13 distribution 2 va...

I test for welfare-induced migration by comparing AFDC participation in border counties to interior counties in the same state. If migration costs are lower for border county residents, border counties on the high-benefit side of a state border should have higher welfare participation relative to the state's interior counties. Border counties on the low-benefit side should have lower welfare pa...

The genome projects have unearthed an enormous diversity of genes of unknown function that are still awaiting biological and biochemical characterization. These genes, as most others, can be grouped into families based on sequence similarity. The PFAM database currently contains over 2,200 such families, referred to as domains of unknown function (DUF). In a coordinated effort, the four large-s...

The authors explore how to define a welfare spell and how well surveys measure welfare spells. By comparing survey and administrative data from the Work Pays Demonstration Project in California on the receipt of Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC), they find that a substantial amount of administrative churning occurs in administrative data. Through a mixing model of several break len...

Three-dimensional structures have been determined for 13 different enzymes that use thiamine diphosphate (ThDP) as a cofactor. These enzymes fall into five families, where members within a family have similar structures. In different families, there are similarities between some domains that clearly point to a common ancestor for all of these enzymes. Where the enzyme structures differ, evoluti...

There are several applications of maximal intersecting families (MIFs) and different notions of fairness. We survey known results regarding the enumeration of MIFs, and we conclude the enumeration of the 207,650,662,008 maximal families of intersecting subsets of X whose group of symmetries is transitive for |X |<13. 2000 Academic Press

Much research on early-onset breast cancer families has been performed and has shown that breast cancer in many of these families is linked to either BRCA1 or BRCA2. Fewer studies have examined the role of genetic predisposition in postmenopausal breast cancer. A nested case-control family study of breast cancer was conducted within the Iowa Women's Health Study, a population-based prospective ...

Urban development is rapidly expanding across the globe and is a major driver of environmental change. It is important to understand how bird species responds to urbanization. Therefore I conducted a qualitative study of birds associated with waste sites such as dumpsite and sewage stabilization ponds was carried out on Moshi municipal. The study assessed the diversity between dumpsite and sewa...

OBJECTIVE To analyze ATP7B mutations in Wilson's disease (WD) patients from the Indian subcontinent and to correlate these with WD phenotype. METHODS We studied 27 WD patients from 25 unrelated families. Twenty-two families were from three southern Indian states - Tamil Nadu andhra Pradesh and Kerala. We applied conformation- sensitive gel electrophoresis (CSGE) to screen for the mutations in...
