To understand the drought response mechanisms of dry matter partitioning maize, pot experiments under conditions were conducted during vegetative and reproductive growth periods maize. The aim was to calculate allometric relationships between weight different organs their responses drought. Results showed that roots, above-ground plant, total biomass gradually increased with maize approaching m...

‎‎in the data envelopment analysis (dea) the efficiency of the units‎ ‎can be obtained by identifying the degree of the importance of the‎ ‎criteria (inputs-outputs).in dea basic models‎, ‎challenges are zero‎ ‎and unequal weights of the criteria when decision‎- ‎making units are‎ ‎evaluated‎. ‎one of the strategies applied to deal with these problems‎ ‎is using common weights of the each input...

Introduction: Existing phantoms have been constructed based on Caucasian, non-Caucasian and race-specific datasets. According to previous studies made efforts to present Korean- specific phantoms and Chinese female phantom based on CVH dataset due to compare the resulting internal dosimetry with the Caucasian based data showed possible racial difference in human anatomy between ...

A study of organ weights was made on a group of 295 normal rabbits for the purpose of determining whether any relation could be detected between the weights of organs and the extent and activity of the lesions found post mortem. The results obtained seemed to indicate that disease, even in its mildest form, is capable of affecting the weights of organs that are not directly involved by the dise...

The effect of an indigenous drug, Speman, on the accessory reproductive organs was observed on castrated adult mice and on immature intact mice. The dose related growth of ventral prostate and the systemic increase in the weights as well as the secretions of accessory sex organs of the castrated adults treated with Speman indicated that the drug possessed anabolic-cum-androgen like activity

Shafer [1] defined weights of evidence and the weight of internal conflict for separable support functions. He also formulated a conjecture, the weight-ofconflict conjecture, which implies that these definitions can be extended in a natural way to all support functions. In this paper I show that the extension to support functions can be carried out whether or not the weight-of-conflict conjectu...

Chronic sleep disruption in laboratory rats leads to increased energy expenditure, connective tissue abnormalities, and increased weights of major organs relative to body weight. Here we report on expanded findings and the extent to which abnormalities become long-lasting, potentially permanent changes to health status after apparent recuperation from chronic sleep disruption. Rats were exposed...
