Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHEAVY METAL ANALYSIS IN RED OAK (QUERCUS RUBRA) POPULATIONS FROM A MINING REGION IN NORTHERN ONTARIO (CANADA): EFFECT OF SOIL LIMING AND ANALYSIS OF GENETIC VARIATIONAnh Tran, K. K. Nkongolo, M. Mehes-Smith et al.Understanding the dynamic of metals in soil and plants and population diversity in Northern Ontario is essential in determining progress toward ecosystem sustainability in reclaimed sites. The objectives of the present study were to assess the levels of metal content in soils and their accumulation in red oak plants from limed and unlimed sites. Genetic variation in red oak populations … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 25 Jun 2014 · 7,737 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HETEROSIS AND GENETIC DISTANCES BASED ON SSR MARKERS IN HELIANTHUS ANNUUSA. V. Usatov, A. I. Klimenko, K. V. Azarin et al.Identifying the best inbred combinations for the development of commercial hybrid of sunflower remains the main challenge to sunflower breeders. In the present research the level of heterosis of F1 hybrids, genetic diversity of parental lines based on SSR markers, as well as its connection with specific combining ability of sunflower were studied. Ten sunflower elite inbred lines (3 restorer … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 7 Mar 2014 · 8,007 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPHYLOGENETIC ANALYSIS OF THE SWINE LEUKOCYTE ANTIGEN-6 GENE GENERATED FROM SPLEENTISSUE OF KOREAN NATIVE PIGJaeyoung Kim, Hyojun Park, Yoonchung Choi, Hoyoung ChungThis study was aimed to search genetic variants, to investigate phylogenetic relationships between pig breeds and to provide basic genetic information of Korean Native Pigs (KNP) using the variations of the Swine Leukocyte Antigen-6 (SLA-6) gene. Cloning of the Swine Leukocyte Antigen (SLA)-6 gene in the MHC non-classical region was performed with spleen tissues of Korean Native Pigs (KNP). Sequencing … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 22 Feb 2014 · 7,236 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA CONTEXT-BASED TECHNIQUE USING TAG-TREE FOR AN EFFECTIVE RETRIEVAL FROM A DIGITAL LITERATURE COLLECTIONMuthuraman Thangaraj, Vengatasubramanian GayathriThe increasing growth of information in online digital libraries causes an increasing need to develop techniques to retrieve. In the digital library, findability-finding the user required information is a hectic task than those of usability. The major issues in findability are (a) topic diffusion: results of a traditional keyword based search, often leads to multiple topic areas, some of which … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 5 Oct 2013 · 6,742 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Characterization of Assam Hill GoatGalib Uz Zaman, Naba Nahardeka, Subimal Laskar et al.A total of 23 polymorphic microsatellite markers were used to evaluate genetic diversity and population structure in Assam Hill Goat (AHG). All the loci studied were polymorphic in nature. The number of observed alleles (Na) detected ranged from 2 to 10 with an overall mean of 4.9±2.220. A total of 114 alleles were observed across all the loci. The effective … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 13 Jul 2013 · 7,462 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSoil Formation by Ecological Factors: Critical ReviewSaeed Zeraat Kar, Aydin BerenjianRegolith is the term we give parent material that has been weathered. The regolith consists of weathered bedrock near the surface including the soil layer. In the Iranian soil layer we will find: decayed parent materials, decaying plant material, decaying animal matter (manure) along with vegetation. Results of the present study show us that methods stimulating natural fertility in Iran … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 2 Apr 2013 · 7,666 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Impact of Climate Change Upon Winter RainfallNuman Shehadeh, Sabah AnanbehClimatic models that project the impact of climate change upon rainfall in the Eastern Mediterranean region predict that the negative impact will be more pronounced upon winter rainfall rather than Fall or Spring rainfall where instability conditions become more pronounced. Those models, also, predict that, due to the great geographical diversity, projected rainfall trends in the above region will show … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 24 Feb 2013 · 7,572 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVolatile Organic Compounds Removal Methods: A ReviewAydin Berenjian, Natalie Chan, Hoda Jafarizadeh MalmiriVolatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are among the most toxic chemicals which are detrimental to humans and environment. There is a significant need of fully satisfactory method for removal of VOCs. There are several methods including physical, chemical and biological treatments available to remove VOCs by either recovery or destruction. The aim of the present study is to summarize the available … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 25 Dec 2012 · 24,331 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPeak-to-Average Power Ratio Reduction Using Active Constellation Extension-Projection Onto Convex Sets Combined with Particle Swarm Optimization Added to Space Time Bloc Coding in Multiple Input Multiple Output-Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing SystemAhmed Ouqour, Abdelhamid Louliej, Younes Jabrane et al.When generated Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) signal is transmitted through a number of antennas in order to achieve diversity or cap any gain (higher transmission rate) then it is known as Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO)-OFDM. The full form of MIMO is multi input and multi output where signals are transmitted via multiple antennas instead of only one antenna … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 12 Dec 2012 · 6,995 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Method for the Development of Platform Models in the Model Driven Architecture ContextInali Wisniewski Soares, Luciane Telinski Wiedermann Agner, Paulo Cezar Stadzisz, Jean Marcelo SimaoThe application of the Model Driven Architecture (MDA) approach to the design of embedded software based on Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS) is encouraged by the fact that such software has a wide variety of platforms. In this way, the creation of methods for the development of platform models that meet such diversity of platforms is necessary. This study proposes a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 7 Nov 2012 · 6,463 accessesView PDFCite
