Genetic divergence in corn indifferent concentrations of the powder

The main purpose of the study was to determine the genetic divergence among the ten corn genotypes cultivated in the 2017/2018 crop in the municipality of Santa Maria das Barreiras-PA. The work consisted basically of making an experiment with corn genotypes at different concentrations of potassium (high, low and general (low + high)). Both experiments were conducted in randomized blocks, with line spacing 0.9 meters, a total of three repetitions for each potassium concentration.

Benefícios da drenagem linfática manual em gestantes

A pregnant woman's body changes throughout her pregnancy, as the fetus needs to grow and develop. Manual Lymphatic Drainage is the safest for this period, besides promoting pain relief, provides relaxation, mobilizes structures, reduces edema, prevents deformity and assists in activities of daily living, among others. The purpose of this paper is to identify the benefits of manual lymphatic drainage in pregnant women. This is a literature review study, including complete books and articles available online.

A realização do estudo bibliométrico, a partir de uma base de dados, é fundamental para determinar o status de pesquisa de determinado tema, quanto à contribuição científica dos trabalhos realizados.

Mathematical modeling of stationary temperature fields for construction of microelectronic devices

The problem of analyzing stationary temperature fields in the form of a parallelepiped is under consideration. Heat sources are located on the top of the parallelepiped. The path to the solution of the problem starts from the basic equa-tion of thermal conductivity which is mathematically described with the Laplace equation system.

Uso de imagens digitalizadas para elaboração de equações que estime a área foliar de mudas de Eugenia uniflora L.

O objetivo deste estudo foi elaborar uma equação matemática que estime a área de pitangeira (Eugenia uniflora L.) através de imagens digitalizadas. Para isso, foram utilizadas 500 folhas de mudas obtidas em casa de vegetação na Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, Campus São Mateus, localizado no município de São Mateus, Norte do Estado do Espírito Santo, Brasil. As folhas foram digitalizadas e processadas com o auxilio do software ImageJ® obtido o comprimento (C) ao longo da nervura central, maior largura (L) e a área foliar observada (AFO).

Postural assessment by identifying parts using artificial intelligence

The human posture is defined by the balance of the muscular chains. This is important because throw this equilibrium a person can accomplish tasks, maintain activities with the optimal use of energy and prevent injuries. The permanent maintaining of poor posture leads to serious muscular and skeletal disorders. Many assessment methods have been created to identify imbalances and to correct postures that may lead to injury, but these methods have the disadvantage of relying on the subjectivity of the evaluator, their experience and not being able to identify minimal deviations.

Influence of different priming and drying methods on the germination of tomato seeds at different temperatures

Priming is a technique used to harmonize the germination of seeds, even under adverse conditions such as cold. We evaluated the effects of osmotic solutions, incubation times and drying speed on the physiological quality of tomato seeds. The osmotic solutions were used in the following proportions: 100% PEG 6000 (polyethylene glycol); 25% PEG + 75% KNO3 (potassium nitrate); 50% PEG + 50% KNO3; 75% PEG + 25% KNO3; and 100% KNO3, all with osmotic potential of -1.1 Mpa. The PEG 6000 solution had a concentration of 0.05M and the KNO3 solution had a concentration of 0.22M.

Sed: an editor fasta using labels of phylogeny and associated traces

Phylogenies are used to treatvarious biological functions, such as the relationships between tree topology and traits of observed species. Currently, tools are available that allow viewing and editing on phylogenetic trees, as well as creating and editing alignments. However, there is a need for a simplified tool that automatically selects sequences from an alignment based on phylogenetic information. Here we created a tool called SED (data editing software), which uses phylogeny-based files to perform statistical summaries and generate subsets of alignments.

Contribution to the inventory and chemical characterization of some traditional dishes of the people coming from the center-west of Côte D'ivoire: case of betes diets in daloa

This study deals about aimed inventairy of traditional foods consumed by Bete’s peolple of Daloa (Western center of Côte d’Ivoire). Theses dishes are prepared from exclusivly by végétales plantes. Foods venarcular names and they laefy vegetables component were carring after nutritional survey. Nutritive value were determined by standard AOAC methods. The contents in moisture, proteins, lipids, fibres and carbihydrates are determined. The results obtained are expressed in g/100 g fw for moisture and in g/100 g dw for proteins, lipids, fibres and carbihydrate.

Evaluation of the use of an electronic apex locator and behavioral analysis in child patients

This study aimed to compare in vivo the measures of working length found with the electronic apex locator Joypex 5 (Denjoy®, China) with those of conventional radiography, in addition to analyzing the behavior of the child during both techniques. The sample included 30 deciduous molar conduits of patients cared for in the Dentistry Teaching Clinic of the Universidade Federal de Campina Grande (UFCG). After the access was prepared, the conduits were irrigated with sodium hypochlorite 2.5% and sterile serum.
