BACKGROUND There is little research on children's positive attributes and their association with psychiatric outcomes. AIMS To examine the hypothesis that children's positive attributes are associated with a reduced risk of developing psychopathology in future. METHOD Positive attributes, measured with the Youth Strengths Inventory (YSI) and psychiatric outcomes were assessed on two occasio...

this experiment was conducted to study the effect of plastic mulch on the growth and some physiological characteristics of two strawberry cultivars (paros and queen elisa) under drought stress. a factorial experiment was performed based on randomized complete block design with four treatments, including mulch, without mulch, normal irrigation (control) and deficit irrigation (-10 bar) with thre...

Bi La Ti O (BLT, xs0.67–0.70) ferroelectric thin films were prepared on a single crystalline aluminum oxide film onto 4yx x 3.0 12 Si substrate (c-Al O ySi), and amorphous phase aluminum oxide film onto Si substrates (a-Al O ySi) by the sol–gel method. In 2 3 2 3 order for crystallization, the as-coated films were annealed at the temperature of 650 and 700 8C for 30 min. The crystalline quality...

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS The Andres clamp technique, which requires accurate and timely determination of glucose, utilizes the Beckman or Yellow Springs Instruments (YSI) glucose analyzers. Both instruments require maintenance, a dedicated operator, preparation of a plasma sample, and a duplicate measurement that takes ≥2 minutes. The Nova StatStrip glucose meter was evaluated for accuracy, reliability,...

Safflower (Carthamustinctorius L.) is an oilseed crop adapted to drought prone arid and semi-arid environments. This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of water deficit stress on antioxidant activity, membrane stability index (MSI), leaf chlorophyll content, leaf area index (LAI) and their relationship with seed yield using 64 safflower genotypes grown under normal and water defici...

The study was carried out to explore drought stress indices in F4 hybrid generations of Triticum aestivum L. select tolerant lines for rainfed areas Kyrgyzstan. Wheat is the main food crop There are about 0.3 million ha allotted wheat, more than half these sown (0.2 ha) farming zones, where amount precipitation rarely exceeds 300-400 mm per year. conducted 2019 at experimental field Agricultura...
