Energy-coupling factor (ECF) transporters are a unique group of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters responsible for micronutrient uptake from the environment. Each ECF transporter is composed of an S component (or EcfS protein) and T/A/A' components (or EcfT/A/A' proteins; ECF module). Among the group II ECF transporters, several EcfS proteins share one ECF module; however, the underlying m...

background: the concentrations and distributions of natural and anthropogenic radioactive materials in soils of the site of rooppur nuclear power plant (rnpp) were investigated with the aim of evaluating the environmental radioactivity and radiation hazard. materials and methods: soil samples were collected from 40 locations in and around the proposed site of rooppur power plant and determined ...

To improve the fertility of soil, several green manure crops are being cultivated. Dhaincha, is an ideal crop used for improvement soil and it also reclaims problematic soils. screen out Dhaincha genotypes based on seedling biomass, a pot culture experiment was carried at Department Plant Breeding Genetics, Anbil Dharmalingam Agricultural College Research Institute, Tiruchirappalli, with four d...

We exhibit a set of edges (moves) and 2-cells (relations) making the complex of pant decompositions on a surface a simply connected complex. Our construction, unlike the previous ones, keeps the arguments concerning the structural transformations independent from those deriving from the action of the mapping class group. The moves and the relations turn out to be supported in subsurfaces with 3...

Composting of waste plant materials and its use in agriculture and landscape sites is an environmental friendly way of reducing waste material and conserving the environment. In this perspectives a survey has been performed at the Dubai based International Center for Biosaline Agriculture to compost the plants based waste material (lawn cuttings-grass) to compost. The material was inoculated wi...

The aim of the present paper is to prove a common fixed point theorem for six mappings via pointwise R-weakly commuting mappings in probabilistic metric spaces satisfying contractive type implicit relations. This generalizes several known results in the literature including those of Kumar and Pant (Filomat 22:2 (2008), 43-52), Kumar and Chugh (Sci. Math. Japan. 56 (2002), 269-275) and others. M...

Let Gg,b be the set of all uni/trivalent graphs representing the combinatorial structures of pant decompositions of the oriented surface ⌃g,b of genus g with b boundary components. We describe the set Ag,b of all automorphisms of graphs in Gg,b showing that, up to suitable moves changing the graph within Gg,b, any such automorphism can be reduced to elementary switches of adjacent edges.

A field experiment was carried out to identify the best suitable rice variety for aerobic cultivation in Cauvery delta region. Ten ruling varieties were sown two consecutive Kharif seasons, with regular nutrient and weed management practices under condition. Growth parameters viz.,plant height, leaf area index, root length dry weight studied. Similarly yield viz., panicles m-2, Dry matter produ...

A growing body of observational and experimental data in nonhuman primates has highlighted the presence rudimentary call combinations within vocal communication system monkeys. Such evidence suggests ability to combine meaning-bearing units into larger structures, a key feature language also known as syntax, could have its origins rooted primate lineage. However, evolutionary progression this t...
