Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIN-SEASON ASSESSMENT OF WHEAT CROP HEALTH USING VEGETATION INDICES BASED ON GROUND MEASURED HYPER SPECTRAL DATAKhalid Ali Al-Gaadi, Virupakshagouda Patil, ElKamil Tola et al.An experiment on a 50 ha center pivot field was conducted to determine the Vegetation Indices (VI’s) that were helpful in assessing the in-season performance of wheat crop treated with graded levels of irrigation water and fertilizers. The irrigation levels were at 100, 90, 80 and 70% evapotranspiration (ETc); however, the fertilizer levels of N: P: K kg-1ha included 300:150:200 … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 7 Jan 2014 · 7,521 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBioactive Factors of Colostrum and Human Milk Exhibits a Day-Night VariationNubia Andrade Silva, Adenilda Cristina Honorio-Franca, Fernanda Regina Giachini et al.The aim of this study was to determine the chronobiological variations of cytokines (IFN-γ, TGF-β) and hormones (melatonin and cortisol). The sample was collected from 42 mothers at three stages of maturity-day 3 (colostrum), day 10 (transitional milk) and day 30 (mature milk) postpartum, at two times of day: diurnal (12:00 h) and nocturnal (24:00 h), resulting a total of … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 25 Jun 2013 · 8,190 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProtocols for Secure Routing and Transmission in Mobile Ad Hoc Network: A ReviewMohamed Othman, Salwa Aqeel Mahdi, Hamidah Ibrahim et al.Mobile ad hoc network security is a new area for research that it has been faced many difficulties to implement. These difficulties are due to the absence of central authentication server, the dynamically movement of the nodes (mobility), limited capacity of the wireless medium and the various types of vulnerability attacks. All these factor combine to make mobile ad hoc … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 25 May 2013 · 8,211 accessesView PDF Cite
