This research was carried out at Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Agricultural University Peshawar to evaluate the performance of maize inbred lines derived from variety Sarhad White regarding grain yield and morphological traits identifying superior based on test cross performance. Test crosses were evaluated in replicated trial along with two tester, one check 16 parental for comparison a 7×7 partially bal...

In this work, using the Rayleigh-Sommerfeld integral and Berry formula, topological charge (TC) of a Gaussian optical vortex with an initial fractional TC is calculated. It shown that for different parts TС, beam contains number screw dislocations, which determine TС entire beam. With small part consists main centered on axis equal to nearest integer (let be n), two edge dislocations located ve...

(cf. Eqn. (3), (4) of Ref. [1]). Phenomenologically, the coupling term can be motivated in the weak coupling limit by the requirement that it should yield a cos(φ1 − φ2) dependence on the phase difference and not change the free energy if two identical superconductors with the same phase are coupled to each other. For small γ and near Tc, it also reproduces the temperature dependence of the cri...

Aim To study the antiplatelet aggregation of ticlopidine (TC). Methods Using coronary artery Folts model in beagles, the efficacy of TC on platelet aggregation was studied. Results (1)TC16, 32 mg•kg -1 dramatically inhibited the frequency of CFRs dose-dependently, and the times of CFRs decreased by 27%, 56%, 95%, 100% respectively at 1-4 h than that in control group’s after TC 32 mg•kg -1 admin...

Two propylene amine oxime (PnAO) complexes, 1, containing a 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole and 2, containing two 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazoles, were synthesized and radiolabeled with (99m)Tc in high labeling yields. Cellular uptakes of (99m)Tc-1 and (99m)Tc-2 were tested using a S180 cells line. Under anoxic conditions, the cellular uptakes of (99m)Tc-1 and (99m)Tc-2 were 33.7 ± 0.2% and 35.0 ± 0.7% at 4 h, ...

In this paper, we summarize a remarkable result obtained by Soskin et al. in Phys Rev A 56, 4064 (1997). We show that for an on-axis superposition of two different-waist Laguerre-Gauss beams with numbers (0, n) and m), the topological charge equals TC=m up to plane where waist radii become same, given beam m) has greater radius, changing TC=n after plane. This occurs because initial op-tical vo...

Subjective thermal comfort plays a critical role in body temperature regulation since this represents the primary stimulus for behavioral thermoregulation. Although both core (Tc) and skin-surface (Tsk) temperatures are known afferent inputs to the thermoregulatory system, the relative contributions of Tc and Tsk to thermal comfort are unknown. We independently altered Tc and Tsk in human subje...

Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 possesses a periplasmic [NiFe]-hydrogenase (MR-1 [NiFe]-H(2)ase) that has been implicated in H(2) production and oxidation as well as technetium [Tc(VII)] reduction. To characterize the roles of MR-1 [NiFe]-H(2)ase in these proposed reactions, the genes encoding both subunits of MR-1 [NiFe]-H(2)ase were cloned and then expressed in an MR-1 mutant without hyaB and hydA...
