Sodium efflux (JNut) across the irrigated trout gill was rapid in sea water (SW), but only about 25 % as large in fresh water (FW). The difference correlated with a change in the potential difference across the gill (TEP). The latter was about +10 mV (blood positive) in SW, but -40 mV in FW. Both flux and electrical data indicated that gills in this fish are permeable to a variety of cations in...

In salt-tolerant Chara longifolia, enhanced Na+ efflux plays an important role in maintaining low cytoplasmic Na+. When it is cultured in fresh water (FW), C. longifolia has a higher Na+ efflux than the obligate FW Chara corallina, although pH dependence and inhibitor profiles are similar for both species (1. Whittington and M.A. Bisson 119941 j Exp Bot 45: 657-665). When it is cultured in salt...

The effects of environmental salinity on the distribution, metabolism, and elimination of benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) were examined in mature rainbow trout. Trout acclimated to either fresh water (0 ppt, FW) or sea water (20 ppt, SW) for 3 weeks received a single 10 mg/kg intra-arterial injection of [(3)H]-benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) at their acclimation salinity or when subjected to an acute salinity ch...

Composting organic waste and human excreta could significantly reduce the amount of dumped increase soil fertility agricultural yields. However, studies focusing on replacement mineral fertilizer with compost from these resources are rare. The presented study quantifies potential other for production. During wet dry seasons, generation composition household solid (HSW) was measured three wealth...

(1) Background: We studied how the generation position of air anions in a closed-type plant factory affects growth characteristics lettuce and identified optimal position. (2) Methods: used LEDs (red/green/blue = 8:1:1) as light source set temperature RH to 20 ± 2 ? 50% 5%, respectively. grew under three anion conditions—sideward, upward, downward—and compared those control grown without anions...

Sodium efflux (J(out) (Na)) across the irrigated trout gill was rapid in sea water (SW), but only about 25 % as large in fresh water (FW). The difference correlated with a change in the potential difference across the gill (TEP). The latter was about +10 mV (blood positive) in SW, but -40 mV in FW. Both flux and electrical data indicated that gills in this fish are permeable to a variety of cat...

The objective was to describe genetic parameters and genetic changes in litter sizes at birth and weaning (LB and LW, n =9081), birth weight (BW, n =11,896), weaning weight (WW, n =11,104), fleece weight and grade (FW and FG, n =8872), and staple length (SL, n =1805) of Polypay sheep. Direct heritability estimates from single-trait analyses were 0.11 for LB, 0.02 for LW, 0.17 for BW, 0.18 for W...

Abstract Weeds are very problematic for tomato production worldwide. Differences in formulations of the same herbicide have different effects on weeds and crops. There no published studies effect capsule suspension pendimethalin (Pend) products Egypt. The present study aims at evaluating three pre-plant Pend compared with a post-plant metribuzin (Met) hand hoeing their efficiency weed control g...

The cornelian cherry (Cornus mas L.) is considered to be one of those medicinal plants with important nutritional and therapeutic properties. plant shows resistance against abiotic biotic stressors in natural growing conditions could suitable use sustainable fruit production. This study was carried out on 22 local genotypes, which were grown northwest Bosnia Herzegovina. Fruits these genotypes ...
