Diseases and health complications caused by mineral deficiencies afflict billions of people globally.Developing pulse crops with elevated seed mineral concentrations can contribute to reducing the incidence of these deficiencies.The objectives of this study were to estimate variance components conditioning seed mineral concentrations of chickpea an
In this paper, a hybrid system integrating a fixed breakwater and an oscillating buoy type wave energy converter (WEC) is introduced.The energy converter is designed to extract the wave power by making use of the wave-induced heave motions of the three floating pontoons in front of the fixed breakwater.A preliminary experimental study is carried ou
The magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer flow of a nanofluid past a stretching/shrinking sheet with velocity, thermal, and solutal slip boundary conditions is studied.Numerical solutions to the governing equations were obtained using a shooting method.The skin friction coefficient and the local Sherwood number increase as the stretching/shrinki
Abstract The Common House Crow (Corvus splendens) exhibits remarkable ecological adaptability, enabling its rapid expansion across continents.However, despite its wide distribution, there is a need for genetic studies to clarify its evolutionary history and population structure.This research employs DNA barcoding, focusing on the mitochondrial gene
