to study the effect of soil moisture variation on growth and steviol glycosides contents in stevia (stevia rebaudiana b), a potexperiment based on a randomized complete design with four treatments and three replications were conducted in a greenhouse of agricultural biotechnology research institute of iran (central region, isfahan), in 2012. experimental treatments applied as a combination of v...

Let $G$ be a tamely ramified reductive $p$-adic‎ ‎group‎. ‎We study distinction of a class of irreducible admissible representations‎ ‎of $G$ by the group of fixed points $H$ of an involution‎ ‎of $G$‎. ‎The representations correspond to $G$-conjugacy classes of‎ ‎pairs $(T,phi)$‎, ‎where $T$ is a‎ ‎tamely ramified maximal torus of $G$ and $phi$ is a quasicharacter‎ ‎of $T$ whose restriction t...

For a given pseudo-Brewster angle phi(pB) of minimum reflectance |r(p)| of p-polarized light at a dielectric-conductor interface, the second-Brewster angle phi(2B) of minimum reflectance ratio |rho|=|r(p)|/|r(s)| of the p and s polarizations is determined for all possible values of the complex relative dielectric function epsilon that lead to the same phi(pB). The difference phi(2B)-phi(pB) is ...

The Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi is the nation's oldest, largest, and most highly selective all-discipline honor society, with more than three hundred chapters on campuses across the country. The structure and continuity of the organization depend on volunteer faculty and student leaders at each college or university, both for selection and induction of honorees and for our increasing service...

Let I = [ 0 , 1 ) $I=[0,1)$ and PC ( $\mathcal {PC}(I)$ (resp. + {PC}^+(I)$ be the quotient group of all piecewise continuous orientation preserving) bijections $I$ by its normal subgroup consisting in elements with finite support (i.e., which are trivial except at possibly finitely many points). Arnoux's thesis states that certain groups interval exchanges simple, proofs these results purpose ...

Five bacteriophages infecting only Saccharopolyspora erythraea (formerly Streptomyces erythreus) among 43 Streptomyces spp. tested were classified into two groups by phage-host relationships, restriction enzyme mapping, cohesive-end determinations, and Southern hybridizations. phi SE6, the most frequently isolated phage, produced clear plaques on all hosts tested, while phi SE45, phi SE57, phi ...
