Abstract This paper applies a new approach to the identification of discourses, based on Multiple Correspondence Analysis (MCA), study discourse variation over time. The MCA keywords deals with major issue use identify discourses: allocation individual multiple discourses. Yet, as this demonstrates, also allows us observe in prevalence discourses texts patterns keyword co-occurrence. Metadata c...

Authors are requested to select key words from the following list. You may use plurals and adjectives for combinations like absolute pupillary response, centrifugal optic nerve, inter blobs, etc. If key words are needed which do not appear in this list, please underline them. For animal classification the Latin nomenclature should be used. p-mechanism A-scan a-wave aberration absolute absorptio...

Mathematics ability and disability is as heritable as other cognitive abilities and disabilities, however its genetic etiology has received relatively little attention. In our recent genome-wide association study of mathematical ability in 10-year-old children, 10 SNP associations were nominated from scans of pooled DNA and validated in an individually genotyped sample. In this paper, we use a ...

1. Introduction The performance of a particular variety is the result of its genetic constitution and the environment in which it has been grown. In practice it is quite possible that a particular variety may not exhibit the same phenotypic performance under different environments or different varieties may respond differently to a specific environment. This variation, arising from the lack of ...

An optimum algorithm to find interaction positions of a γ-ray in a Ge-detector is being investigated by analyzing pulse shapes of the Ge-detector VEGA [1, 2]. The VEGA detector consists of four Ge crystals forming like a four leaf clover. Each crystal has four electric segmentations in radial quarters. A collection time of electron and hole (eh) depends on their drift length, therefore the slop...

It has been demonstrated that 5-HT(1A) receptors play an important role in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. Because Gastrodia elata Bl (GE) modulates the serotonergic system, we examined whether GE could affect phencyclidine (PCP)-induced abnormal behavior in mice. Repeated treatment with PCP increased immobility time, while it decreased social interaction time and recognition memory. PCP-...

Seed cotton yield is a trait governed by multiple genes that cause changes in the performance of genotypes depending on the cultivation environment. Breeding programs examine the genotype x environment interaction (GE) using precise statistical methods, such as AMMI (additive main effects and multiplicative interaction) and GGE biplot (genotype main effects + genotype x environment interaction)...
