The fungal pathogen Cronartium ribicola J.C. Fischer, causal agent of white pine blister rust (WPBR), was introduced to the eastern United States about 1898 (11). Hosts for the fungus include fiveneedle pines (Pinus sp. section Quinquefoliae) and currants and gooseberries (Ribes sp.). Natural infection of wild populations of Pedicularis bracteosa Benth and Castilleja Mutis ex L.f. have also bee...

In English-to-Japanese translation, BLEU (Papineni et al., 2002), the de facto standard evaluation metric for machine translation (MT), has very weak correlation with human judgments (Goto et al., 2011; Goto et al., 2013). Therefore, RIBES (Isozaki et al., 2010; Hirao et al., 2014) was proposed. RIBES measures similarity of the word order of a machine-translated sentence and that of a correspon...

Embelia ribes Burm F. is large scandent shrub, disturbed throughout India and belongs to the family Myrsinacae. It is commonly known as false black pepper or Vidanga. E. ribes grows in semievergreen and deciduous forests at an altitude of 1,500m found in central and lower Himalayas, Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Bengal, Orissa, Andhra Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh throughout India. Embelia ribes has b...

Scrambling is acceptable reordering of verb arguments in languages such as Japanese and German. In automatic evaluation of translation quality, BLEU is the de facto standard method, but BLEU has only very weak correlation with human judgements in case of Japanese-toEnglish/English-to-Japanese translations. Therefore, alternative methods, IMPACT and RIBES, were proposed and they have shown much ...

Fruit from black, red and white currants, and gooseberries (Ribes L.) were grown commercially in North America at the beginning of the 20th Century. However, when white pine blister rust (WPBR) (Cronartium ribicola J. C. Fisch.) was introduced into the new world, their cultivation was discontinued. About 825,000 t (908,000 tons) of Ribes fruit are produced worldwide, almost entirely in Europe. ...

Antifungal activity of Embelia ribes was evaluated on eight different fungal species by employing various concentrations of seed extract (0.5-2.0 mg). All the concentrations of seed extract inhibited the fungal growth, whereas maximum activity was observed at 2.0 mg concentration of seed extract. Among different doses, the diameter of inhibition zones ranged from 9 to 18 mm in various fungal sp...

OBJECTIVE Medical plants, as rich sources of natural antioxidants with antidiabetic effects, are used worldwide to diminish a variety of symptoms and many diseases. R. ribes L., which belongs to the family of polygonaceae, can provide symptomatic relief and assist in the prevention of the secondary complications of the diabetes. MATERIAL AND METHODS 36 female adult rats were randomly divided ...

Data from Loasaceae and Ribes (Grossulariaceae) obtained during field studies in Peru allow us to define the southeastern limit of the Amotape-Huancabamba Zone with remarkable precision. The limit runs in slightly southeasterly direction from NE of Otuzco (department La Libertad, province Otuzco, Río Chicama drainage system: S 07° 50,315 ́, W 078° 29,076 ́) to the mountain pass between Parcoy and...

Oral administration of Embelia ribes berries (50% EtoH) reduced blood sugar level significantly. In intact rats, blood sugar levels were decreased by 13.1% and 20.3% after 3 hrs. and 5 hrs. of treatment respectively. While in alloxan induced diabetic rats blood glucose levels were decreased after 3 hours and 5hours by 28.1% and 34.5% respectively. Hypoglycaemic action of Embelia ribes berries m...
