EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRandomized Response Procedure for the Estimation of the Population Ratio using Ranked Set SamplingAgustin Santiago, Carlos N. Bouza, J. Maclovio Sautto, Amer Ibrahim Al-OmariIn this study we deal with the estimation of the population ratio, when a Randomized Response (RR) procedure is used for collecting responses and Ranked Set Sampling (RSS) is the selection method. The variances of the suggested estimators are calculated. Comparisons between different estimators are presented. …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 27 Apr 2016 · 7,396 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOverdominance Effects between Malaria and Visceral Leishmaniasis in the 5q31 RegionMutaz Amin, Abdelbadea Elhassan, Kirk Rocket, Muntasir IbrahimA group of SNPs in 5q31, genotyped from Hausa tribe of Koka village in eastern Sudan; an area endemic with malaria and visceral leishmaniasis, were analyzed by The Leishmaniasis research group and found to have significant excess of heterozygosis level and departure from HWE and assumed to be due to natural selection resulting from notorious deadly outbreaks since various ethnic … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 18 Sep 2015 · 7,114 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Quantitative Pharmacology on Drug DevelopmentAna Ruiz-Garcia, Kourosh ParivarThesuccess of drug development rests over two well defined pillars, a goodunderstanding of the drug’s clinical pharmacology and the appropriate targetpopulation for whom the clinical use is intended. The label for human prescription drugsrequires a good understanding of the pharmacological effects (pharmacodynamicsor PD) and the mechanism of action of the drug as well as detailed informationof the drug’s Pharmacokinetics (PK): … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 24 Apr 2015 · 7,158 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractField Evaluation of Sugarcane Orange Rust for First Clonal Stage of the CP Cultivar Development ProgramDuli Zhao, R. Wayne Davidson, Miguel Baltazar, Jack C. ComstockConsistent development of high-yielding sugarcane (a complex hybrid of Saccharum spp.) cultivars with resistance or tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses is critical to commercial sugarcane production. Currently, orange rust (caused by Puccinia kuehnii E.J. Butler) is a big challenge for the sugarcane production in Florida, USA. A better understanding of sugarcane genotypic variability in response to orange rust disease … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 27 Jan 2015 · 7,900 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRESPONSE SURFACE METHODOLOGY ANALYSIS OF POLYPHENOL RECOVERY FROM ARTICHOKE WASTEAntonio ZuorroLarge amounts of a solid waste consisting mainly of outer bracts and stems are produced from the industrial processing of artichokes. In this study, the recovery of polyphenols from the two waste components was investigated. Extraction experiments were carried outby an environmentally friendly procedure using aqueous ethanol as solvent. The total polyphenol content, expressed as mg of GAE per g … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 3 Jul 2014 · 7,189 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrediction of Days After Anthesis of Developing Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) Fruit from Blossom-End Changes in ColorTiznado-Hernández Martín Ernesto, Delia Moreno-Velázquez, Angel Javier Ojeda-Contreras, Andrés Ochoa-MezaThe development of mathematical models to predict the physiological status of a developing fruit can be a useful tool to reduce the variation in fruit response to postharvest treatments. The objective of this study was to develop a mathematical model to predict Days After Anthesis (DAA) in tomato fruit from changes in the blossom end color. Around 160 tomato flowers … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 4 Sep 2013 · 8,105 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContent Based Image Retrieval of Ultrasound Liver Diseases Based on Hybrid ApproachR. Suganya, S. RajaramProblem statement: In the past few years, immense improvement was obtained in the field of Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR). Nevertheless, existing systems still fail when applied to medical image databases. Simple feature-extraction algorithms that operate on the entire image for characterization of color, texture, or shape cannot be related to the descriptive semantics of medical knowledge that is extracted from … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 24 Mar 2012 · 7,643 accessesView PDFCite
