Identification of the genetic architecture of phenotypic stability and management of adaptational genes is a prerequisite for improvement of adaptation. To locate the genes controlling adaptation, disomic addition lines of agropyron (agropyron elongatum, 2n=2x=14) into the genetic background of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L., 2n=6x=42, cv. ‘Chinese Spring’=CS) were used in a randomized compl...

Our review covers microscopic foundations of generalized hydrodynamics (GHD). As one generic approach we develop form factor expansions, for ground states and Gibbs ensembles (GGE). In the latter case so obtained results are compared with predictions from GHD. One cornerstone GHD GGE averaged currents, which can also be through employing factors. Discussed is a second, completely orthogonal bas...

the aim of this study was to evaluate genotype×environment interaction (gei) of chlorophyll meter readings (spad) of ten durum wheat cultivars, using data obtained from multi-environment trials during two years, at eight locations. stability and genotypic superiority for spad reading was identified using anova and gge biplot analysis. furthermore, the interrelationships among spad reading and o...

The plasma concentration, particle size, and chemical composition of high density lipoproteins (HDLs) are associated with the metabolism of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TGRLs). During alimentary lipemia there is active exchange of lipids and apolipoproteins between HDL and apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins. Whereas HDL has been assigned a protective role against the development of ath...

Technical Targets The goal of this project is to develop a cost effective and feedstock flexible technology for reforming of biomass feedstocks. The synergistic improvement in reforming catalysts and reaction engineering will help the reforming technology development that meets the following DOE 2010 targets for distributed production of hydrogen from bio-derived renewable liquids: • Cost: $3.6...

Seventy-three adult female cynomolgus monkeys fed an atherogenic diet were studied to determine the effect of two different combination contraceptive steroid preparations containing equivalent amounts of estrogen but different progestin components on plasma lipids and lipoproteins. Our hypothesis was that any high density lipoprotein (HDL) lowering effect of the contraceptive steroid preparatio...

Evaluation of Genotype × Environment Interaction for Seed Yield Sunflower Hybrids using GGE Biplot Method

In the studies on selection and population genetics of forest trees that include the analysis of genotype × environment interaction (GE), the use of biplot graphs is relatively rare. This article describes the models and analytic methods useful in the biplot graphs, which enable the analyses of mega-environments, selection of the testing environment, as well as the evaluation of genotype stabil...

High density lipoproteins (d = 1.063 to 1.21 g/ml) were isolated from both individual and pooled umbilical cord blood plasma by sequential preparative ultracentrifugation. Mean total HDL concentration was 139 ± 9.1 mg/dl, with mean values for cholesterol and triglyceride of 24.9 mg/dl and 5.0 mg/dl, respectively. The particle size distribution of HDL particles was examined by gradient gel elect...
