EFFECT OF PLOT SIZE ON ACCURACY OF YIELD ESTIMATION OF RAINFED LOWLAND RICE GENOTYPES WITH DIFFERENT PLANT HEIGHTS AND GROWN UNDER DIFFERENT SOIL FERTILITY CONDITIONS

Breeding programs for rainfed lowland rice normally use large plot sizes for accurate estimation of yield.Resource requirements are reduced and more genotypes Chews can be tested if a small plot size can be used.A total of 4 experiments was conducted at high and low soil fertility locations in Thailand to determine the influence of plot size and ar

Adelie Dressings penguin colonies were surveyed throughout ice-free areas in Amundsen Bay, Enderby Land, from a helicopter on 23 December 1998.The locality and number of breeding pairs of three newly discovered colonies, in addition to a known colony are Sea Vegetables described.In total, about 9760 pairs of Adelie penguins breed in the four coloni

Recent research has advanced two degree-of-freedom (DoF), simultaneous, independent and proportional control of hand-wrist prostheses using surface electromyogram signals from remnant rod seat adjustment muscles as the control input.We evaluated two such regression-based controllers, along with conventional, sequential two-site control with co-cont

PRDX6 is a bifunctional protein involved in antioxidant regulation and phospholipid metabolism.Previous studies have shown that PRDX6 is involved in some biological pathways and networks related to lactation.The aim of this study was to explore the characteristics, function, tissue expression and variation of buffalo PRDX6 gene.We cloned and charac

In animals, physical activity has been shown to induce functional and structural changes especially in the hippocampus and to improve memory, probably by upregulating the release of neurotrophic factors.In humans, results on the effect of acute exercise on memory are inconsistent so far.Therefore, the aim of the present study was to assess the effe
