synthetic plants as well as wild crop species are valuable genetic resourses. to determine the genetic variation in triticale, tritipyrum as well as wheat lines, genomic dna of this amphiploid including thinopyrum bessarabicum and durum wheat were amplified using 32 random and 22 semi random primers. primers that could produce clear, polymorphic and repetitive bands are used for determination o...

Carl Gustav Jung, as the founder of the school of ana-lytical psychology, has been a prominent figure inpsycho-logical investigation for over a third of a century.The psychological approach which Jung represents isunique in that it places a special emphasis upon the placeof religion in personality dynamics.While Jung hasreceivedwidespread attention over t...

Hawking and Turok have recently published a solution to the WKB “wavefunction for the universe” which they claim leads in a natural way to an open universe as the end point of the evolution for a universe dominated by a scalar field. They furthermore argue that their solution a preferred solution under the rules of the game. This paper will, I hope, clarify their solution and the limits of vali...

The Information Systems (IS) discipline traces its origins to issues that were of interest practitioners, but in recent years the practitioner perspective has often been neglected. Nevertheless, there is increasing recognition practitioner's still important and research we undertake can (or should) have implications for practitioners. Journals like MIS Quarterly Executive target this segment ex...

A notion of incentive for agents is introduced which leads to a very general notion of an equilibrium for a finite game. Sufficient conditions for the existence of these equilibria are given. Known existence theorems are shown to be corollaries to the main theorem of this paper. Furthermore, conditions for the existence of equilibria in certain symmetric regions for games are also given. From t...

A few years ago, I co-authored an editorial in this journal (Davison & Díaz Andrade, 2018) which we observed that the vast majority of theories applied IS discipline were developed by scholars living countries global north. We argued situation is problematic because those may not reflect contextual realities culturally different locations and suggested apparent universalism “northern” it overwh...

Theory is a crucial aspect of the information systems (IS) discipline. Authors draw from articles on how to develop theory and theories themselves anchor knowledge contributions. Editors reviewers expect see novel theoretical insights in conjunction with empirical rigour sophistication (cf. Hardin et al., 2022). The thinking PhD students shaped by discussions importance through formal coursewor...

Over 950 species of Malpighiaceae grow in a variety of neotropical habitats and have evolved great diversity in habit, fruit, pollen, and chromosome number. Their flowers, in contrast, tend to be very similar in general architecture, especially in those aspects concerned with the attraction, orientation, and reward of pollinators. The flowers are visited only by Hymenoptera, principally female ...

Long being seen as commercially unsuccessful after the dot-com era, interest in web-based B2B electronic intermediaries is again increasing in the light of globalization and cost-pressure on procurement departments of enterprises. Driven by increased profitability, these systems are getting more sophisticated. Based on a thorough literature-driven requirements analysis, this paper presents a st...
