Knowledge is often highly specific to the conditions of acquisition, so there is limited transfer of learning from training to testing. A series of studies is reported examining specificity and transfer of learning in three very different tasks, including digit data entry, speeded aiming, and time production. These studies address a variety of theoretical issues, including those involving menta...

basal stem rot caused by sclerotinia sclerotiorum (lib.) de bary is one of the most important diseases of sunflower. quantitative trait loci (qtl) implicated in partial resistance to two isolates of s. sclerotiorum (ssu107 and sskh41) were investigated using f9 recombinant inbred lines (rils) from the cross between sunflower parental lines pac2 and rha266. experiments were conducted in complete...

pasteurella multocida (p. multocida) is an important pathogen of various domestic animals. the outer membrane proteins (omps) play a major role in pathogenesis and immunogenicity of p. multocida. the aim of the study was to develop indirect enzyme linked immuno sorbant assay (elisa) based on omps to ascertain the antibody titers in animals post-infection or to gauge the potency of vaccine. the ...

the definiteness feature in english is both lf and pf interpretable while persian is a language in which this feature is lf-interpretable but pf-uninterpretable. hence, there is no overt article or morphological inflection in persian denoting a definite context. furthermore, persian partially encodes specificity not definiteness. in definiteness both the speaker and hearer are involved while in...

abstract background: a major problem of the first moments of childbirth, especially in “prolonged labor,” is perinatal asphyxia which necessitates neonatal resuscitation. this study aimed at evaluating the alert line of the partogram in recognizing the need for neonatal resuscitation 20–30 s after delivery. materials and methods: 140 full‑term pregnant women were kept under surveillance through...
