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 abstractVirtual Assessment of air Pollution Dispersion from Anthropogenic Sudden ExplosionMarvel Lola Akinyemi, Moses Eterigho Emetere, Mojisola Rachel UsikaluThe control of air pollutants from anthropogenic sources seems almost impossible due to numerous influencing factors present in the atmosphere. In this study, we carried out a virtual mathematical experimentation using Math CAD, Mat lab and analytical approximation to estimate the dimensional impact of initial pollutant plume cloud from a sudden volcanic blast and the dynamics of its wind field. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 9 Apr 2016 · 7,157 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMinimum Free Energy Based Evaluation of mRNAs Secondary Structures Constructed by 18 Clinically Significant Exonic Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) and Haplotypes of 5 Missense SNPs of RB1 GeneSarder Nasir Uddin, Apurba Majumder, Khandker Khaldun Islam et al.Clinically significant 18 Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) from exon regions of Retinoblastoma gene (RB1) were analyzed to find out the structural variations in mRNAs. Online bioinformatic tools i.e., Vienna RNA, RNAfold were used for secondary structure analysis of mRNAs. Predicted minimum Free Energy Change (MFE) was calculated for mRNAs structures. It has been observed that the average of predicted MFE … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 21 Oct 2015 · 8,556 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvolution of Time Concept in Physics and in PhilosophyC. Sivaram, Kenath Arun, O. V. KirenWhat is ’time’? This is a question that has perplexed many a physicist and philosophers alike. The perception of the passage of time appears ingrained in all biological systems where growth, evolution and decay of objects, etc. are measurable indicators of the passage of time. Here we look at various physical models of time, from Newtonian to relativistic. We also … …Physics International, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 9 Jul 2015 · 8,957 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFracture Initiation at the Zirconia/Veneer Interface-A Finite Element SimulationMirsayar M. M., A. T. SamaeiZirconia/veneer bilayered components are extensively used in dental restoration technology to improve resistance of tooth's surface from decay. The direction of the fracture propagation at the interface of zirconia and veneer is investigated in this study. Finite element analysis is performed on a bi-material four point bend specimen in different geometries and the fracture initiation angle is obtained using Maximum … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 8 Jun 2015 · 7,567 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProbabilistic Estimates of the Largest Strictly Convex Singular Values of Pregaussian Random MatricesYang LiuIn this study, the p-singular values of random matrices with Gaussian entries defined in terms of the lp-p-norm for p>1, as is studied. Mainly, using analytical techniques, we show the probabilistic estimate, precisely, the decay, on the upper tail probability of the largest strictly convex singular values, when the number of rows of the matrices becomes very large and the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 6 May 2015 · 6,887 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection of Antibodies Against Bovine Herpes Virus 1, Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus and Bovine Respiratory Syncytial Virus in Early and Ultra-Early Weaned Beef CalvesDiego Daniel Gonzalez, Juan Sebastian Vittone, Martin Lado et al.Bovine respiratory disease is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in weaned calves. In Argentina, two weaning practices have been implemented. In the early weaning, the calf is removed from the cow at 60-70 days of age while in ultra-early weaning the calf is weaned at 30-45 days of age. The purposes of both systems is to improve cow … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 29 Oct 2013 · 8,384 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpacts of Application Usage and Local Hardware on the Throughput of Computer Networks with Desktop VirtualizationVitor Chaves De Oliveira, Alexandre De Assis Mota, Lia Toledo Moreira MotaCurrently, virtualization solutions are employed in the vast majority of organizations around the world. The reasons for this are the benefits gained by the approach, focusing on increases in security, availability and data integrity. These privileges are also present in a new technique, which emerges from this same concept and is called desktop virtualization. This method, compelled by these advantages, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 28 Jan 2013 · 7,117 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntioxidant Potential in Lipophilic and Hydrophilic Extracts from Medicinal Herbs (Salvia officinalis and Echinacea angustifolia). A Comparison Between Assays Based on Electron Paramagnetic Resonance and SpectrophotometryFlavia Navari-Izzo, Riccardo Izzo, Mike F. Quartacci et al.Recently, detection of antioxidant activity of plant extracts has caught the attention of researchers. Determination of antioxidant activity is usually performed using stable free radicals. A number of assays is available for screening the antioxidant activity of food constituents, but few of these methods are applicable to lipophilic substances. EPR is the analytical technique that directly measures free radicals making … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 6 Nov 2012 · 9,008 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractKinetics of Thin Layer Drying of Poultry ManureA. E. Ghaly, K. N. MacDonaldThe poultry industry is one of the largest and fastest growing sectors of livestock production in the world. The estimated 2010 world flock was over 18 billion birds with a yearly manure output of 22 million tonnes. Storage and disposal of raw poultry manure has become an environmental problem because of the associated air, water and soil pollution.
