Noisy zones of proximal development: Conversation in noisy classrooms
(
Blackwell Publishing Ltd
, 2011 , Article)
Despite the importance of context in studies of language use, sociolinguists have ignored the impact of noise on conversational interaction. This inattention is of particular concern in classrooms where language is a ...
Overproduction of Delta-Endotoxins by Sporeless Bacillusthuringiensis Mutants Obtained by Nitrous Acid Mutagenesis
(
Springer-Verlag
, 2011 , Article)
Asporogenic and oligosporogenic Bacillus thuringiensis mutants having the ability to overproduce insecticidal crystal protein were generated by using nitrous acid (50 mg/ml), as chemical mutagenic agent. Insecticidal crystal ...
Asymptotic formulae for eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of q-Sturm-Liouville problems
(
WILEY-VCH Verlag
, 2011 , Article)
We investigate the asymptotic behavior of the eigenvalues and the eigenfunctions of q-Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problems. For this aim we study the asymptotic behavior of q-trigonometric functions as well as fundamental ...
Potato-Herb Synergies as Food Designs for Hyperglycemia and Hypertension Management
(
Wiley-Blackwell
, 2011 , Book chapter)
The incidence of diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases is increasing at a rapid rate globally. Adult on-set type II diabetes, which is closely associated with obesity, is reported to be 90-95% of all diabetic cases ...
Study of the Bacillus thuringiensis Vip3Aa16 histopathological effects and determination of its putative binding proteins in the midgut of Spodoptera littoralis
(
Elsevier Inc.
, 2011 , Article)
The bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis produces, at the vegetative stage of its growth, Vip3A proteins with activity against a broad spectrum of lepidopteran insects. The Egyptian cotton leaf worm (Spodoptera littoralis) is ...
Integration of a Recombinant Chitinase into Bacillus thuringiensis Parasporal Insecticidal Crystal
(
Springer-Verlag
, 2011 , Article)
Chitinases have been successfully used in combination with Bacillus thuringiensis delta-endotoxins forming crystals in order to enhance their insecticidal activities. In this context, we opted for promoting the chitinase ...
Improvement of Bioinsecticides Production by Sporeless Bacillus thuringiensis strains in Response to Various Stresses in Low Cost Medium
(
Springer-Verlag
, 2011 , Article)
The use of bioinsecticides, particularly those produced by sporeless Bacillus thuringiensis strains, has been shown to be a good alternative in pest management. Two types of sporeless mutants were distinguished. The ...
Biological control of Botrytis cinerea using the antagonistic and endophytic Burkholderia cepacia Cs5 for vine plantlet protection
(
Canadian Science Publishing
, 2011 , Article)
Antifungal activity of the Burkholderia cepacia Cs5 was tested in vitro and in vivo for the control of Botrytis cinerea . Bacterial biomass was significantly improved by the amendment of ZnSO(4), Mo(7)(NH(4))(6)O(24), and ...
Environmental Burkholderia cepacia strain CS5 acting by two analogous alkyl-quinolones and a didecyl-phthalate against a broad spectrum of phytopathogens fungi
(
Springer-Verlag
, 2011 , Article)
An environmental Burkholderia cepacia strain named Cs5 was isolated and identified first using API biochemical identification system and then with 16S rDNA and recA sequence homology search. This bacterium exhibited a broad ...
