Identification of a SSR marker (TOM-144) linked to Fusarium wilt resistance in Solanum lycopersicum
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2013-10)With the discovery of molecular markers and marker assisted selection technology, the research has entered into a new era and has made it possible to develop new and more informative PCR-based markers, including SSR, and ... -
The origin of biological information and programmed protein synthesis
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2013-10)Biological information is one of the most important characteristics of life, and it enables life to evolve to higher complexity and adapt to the environment by mutation and natural selection. However, the origin of this ... -
Potential effects of ultraviolet-C radiation on the mole rats (Spalax leucodon) hematological values
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2013-10)In this study, the effect of ultraviolet-C (UVC) radiation on hematologic parameters of mole rats (Spalax leucodon) was studied. Ten mole rats of both sexes, weighing 150-200 g, were used. The rats were exposed to 8 hours ... -
Characterization of winged bean (Psophocarpus tetragonolobus (L.) DC.) based on molecular, chemical and physiological parameters
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2013-10)Winged bean (Psophocarpus tetragonolobus (L.) DC.) is a potential legume crop of the tropics with high protein and oil content in the seeds. Analysis of the mutual genotypic relationships among twenty four genotypes of P. ... -
Aptamers—A Promising Approach for Sensing of Biothreats Using Different Bioinformatics Tools
(Scientific Research, 2013-11)Intentional release of pathogens or biotoxin against humans, plants, or animals is an impending threat all over the world. Continuous monitoring of environment is required for their detection. These signals can help to ... -
Electrochemical Synthesis of Titanium Nano Particles at Carbon Paste Electrodes and Its Applications as an Electrochemical Sensor for the Determination of Acetaminophen in Paracetamol Tablets
(Scientific Research, 2013-11)Titania nano particles were synthesized at carbon paste electrode by cyclic voltammetry and then it was employed for the determination of acetaminophen in phosphate buffer at pH 7.4. Carbon paste electrode with titania ... -
Cardiomyopathies in Tropical Countries: Causes and Nosological Perspective
(Scientific Research, 2013-11)Background: Cardiomyopathy is the main cause of heart failure in developing countries, mainly in Africa. In those areas the concept of “tropical cardiomyopathy” is still used to design all unexplained cardiomyopathy. The ... -
Bradyarrythmias: A Study of Anthropometric, Demographic and Comorbidity Profiles in an African Population
(Scientific Research, 2013-11)Background: Bradyarrhythmias are a group of cardiac rhythm disorders that are characterized by bradycardia and they are cosmopolitan in distribution. Their demographic, anthropometric and comorbidity attributes are yet ... -
Diversity and Abundance Patterns of Amphibians in Rehabilitated Quarries of Bamburi Near Mombasa (Kenya)
(Research, 2013-11)Amphibians are sensitive to changes in the environment and are, therefore, excellent indicators of success in restoring degraded habitats. As such, a clear understanding on how amphibian populations respond to changes ... -
A New Attribute Decision Making Model Based on Attribute Importance
(Scientific Research, 2013-11)In the light of universality of uncertainty, we propose a decision making model in completed information system. Considering the attribute reduction, attribute importance and mismatched information, a multiple attribute ... -
