Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGENETIC DIVERSITY OF OKRA (ABELMOSCHUS ESCULENTUS L.) GENOTYPES FROM DIFFERENT AGRO-ECOLOGICAL REGIONS REVEALED BY AMPLIFIED FRAGMENT LENGTH POLYMORPHISM ANALYSISNaser M. SalamehThis study was carried out to assess the genetic diversity in 48 genotypes and accessions using eight Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP) primer-pairs. The eight selected AFLP primer-pairs generated a total of 150 polymorphic loci. Using the generated AFLP data, the Un-Weighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic Average (UPGMA) ordered the genotypes into six groups based on Dice similarity coefficient. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 7 · 29 Apr 2014 · 8,069 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDETECTING ASSET IMPAIRMENT EARNINGS MANAGEMENT ON IFRS CONTEXT: SOME EVIDENCE FROM GREEK LISTED COMPANIESEkaterini C. Laskaridou, Vazakidis Athanasios, Athianos StergiosThe purpose of this study is two fold: (a) to bring on issues of asset impairment manipulation in the IFRS context (b) to examine, any statistical inference validating impairment discretionary charges and firms’ earning experience. The Impairment Accounting Standard (IAS 36), enters new requirements for asset impairment provided to satisfying accrued loss amounts. Earning Management through the use of asset … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 6 · 10 Apr 2014 · 7,682 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of Pseudozyma hubeiensis Y10BS025 as a Potent Producer of Glycolipid Biosurfactant Mannosylerythritol lipidsMartha Sari, Atit Kanti, I. Made Artika, Wien KusharyotoMannosylerythritol Lipids (MEL’s) are glycolipid biosurfactants that contain 4-O-β-D-mannopyranosyl-meso-erythritol as a hydrophilic moiety and fatty acids as a hydrophobic moiety. MEL’s are abundantly produced by several kinds of microorganism and are one of the most promising biosurfactants currently known. The search for a novel endogenous producer of MEL’s was undertaken based on the available collection of the yeast strains from … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 20 Dec 2013 · 8,095 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAttenuated Total Reflectance-Fourier-Transform Infrared Microspectroscopy a Rapid Method for Microbial Strain CharacterizationMeshref Awad AlruwailiFourier-Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and BHI 50CH were used to identify bacteria of the Lactobacillus (L.) at the species level. A previously developed method for measuring FTIR spectra and a strategy for their analysis provided the basis for selecting the FTIR spectra of reference bacterial strains and created a spectral library. The research was launched in which the spectra collected … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 8 Jun 2013 · 7,623 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEmission Factors of CH4 and CO2 Emitted from VehiclesSutthicha Nilrit, Pantawat Sampanpanish, Surat BualertThe study of the Emission Factors (EF) of methane (CH4) and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emitted from vehicle exhaust is the study of greenhouse gases that are crucial to climate change. These gases are part of a fuel known as Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) or as Natural Gas for Vehicles (NGV) in Thailand. This fuel is used as an alternative to … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2013 · 8,199 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Diatom Stratigraphy of Rawapening Lake, Implying Eutrophication HistoryTri Retnaningsih Soeprobowati, Suwarno Hadisusanto, Peter Gell, Atun ZawadskiProblem statement: The use of diatoms to reconstruct past ecological conditions in lakes is well established. Diatoms are microscopic algae that forms siliceous frustules which allow them to preserve well in sediments. Rawapening Lake is one of 15 Indonesian lakes identified as 2010-2014 National Priority Lakes. Naturally, Rawapening is a tectono-volcanic lake. In the early 1900s, the sole outlet of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 15 Jun 2012 · 7,716 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Theories of Complexity and Chaos to Economic MisgovernancePartha Gangopadhyay, Nasser Elkanj, Mustafa A. RahmanProblem statement: In this study we develop a comprehensive model involving local taxes, intergovernmental transfers and bureaucratic corruption to characterize a fiscal equilibrium in order to explain the provision of local (public) expenditure in developing nations. The main goal of the research is to explain economic misgovernance as an equilibrium phenomenon, which is therefore expected to persist over time despite … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2011 · 7,375 accessesView PDFCite
