( Frontiers Media SA , 2024 , Article)Introduction: Online education has become a crucial component of teachers' professional development, and universities incorporate innovative pedagogical approaches to enhance teachers' training. These approaches have proven ... -
The usefulness of session rating of perceived exertion for monitoring training load despite several influences on perceived exertion
( Human Kinetics Publishers Inc. , 2014 , Article Review)Despite various contributing factors, session rating of perceived exertion has the potential to affect a large proportion of the global sporting and clinical communities since it is an inexpensive and simple tool that is ... -
Endophytes and Halophytes to Remediate Industrial Wastewater and Saline Soils: Perspectives from Qatar
( MDPI , 2022 , Article Review)Many halophytes are considered to be salt hyperaccumulators, adopting ion extrusion and inclusion mechanisms. Such plants, with high aboveground biomass, may play crucial roles in saline habitats, including soil desalination ... -
Prevalence of toxigenic fungi and mycotoxins in Arabic coffee (Coffea arabica): Protective role of traditional coffee roasting, brewing and bacterial volatiles
( Public Library of Science , 2021 , Article)Fungal infection and synthesis of mycotoxins in coffee leads to significant economic losses. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of toxigenic fungi, their metabolites, and the effect of traditional roasting and ... -
Hypolithic cyanobacteria colonization of quartz at South Desert
( Science Publications , 2014 , Article)Hypolithic microbial communities (found underneath rocks) were encountered in the southern desert of Qatar where quartz rocks are ubiquitous and are a substrate for hypoliths. These hypoliths thrive where extreme temperature, ... -
Engineering of mutants of Anabaena PCC7120 (cyanobacterium) constructed by DNA-plasmid transfer and UV-radiation resistant to the herbicide Diuron capable of ammonia production
( Elfos Scientiae , Cuba , 2004 , Article)Ten mutants of Anabaena PCC7120 were successfully constructed to express two genetic traits, ammonia production and the resistance to the Diuron herbicide, using transposon induced mutagenesis and UV-radiation. The ranges ... -
A complete sequence of the 16S rRNA gene of a novel Streptomyces coelicolor (AB588124) (QU66c-2002) isolated from the soil of Qatar
( Asian Network for Scientific Information , 2011 , Article)The aim of this study was to determine the sequence of the 16S rRNA gene and thus to conduct the phylogenic position of the naturally occurring wild type strain of Streptomyces QU66C. Here we show conclusively the full ... -
Halophytes and associated properties of natural soils in the Doha area, Qatar
( Michigan State University Press , 2007 , Conference)Plant life and the life they support are being eliminated and cannot cope with the construction activities in Doha City. One of the most important reasons behind this study is the fast rate at which many habitats are ... -
Perspectives of future water sources in Qatar by phytoremediation: biodiversity at ponds and modern approach
( Bellwether Publishing, Ltd. , 2021 , Article Review)Anthropogenic and industrial wastewater (IWW) could be an additional future source of water to support the needs of the people of the State of Qatar. New lagoons have been built using modern technologies to optimize water ... -
Isolation, biochemical and molecular characterization of 2-chlorophenol-degrading Bacillus isolates
( Academic Journals , 2007 , Article)Pure cultures of 2-chlorophenol degrading bacteria were isolated from a natural enrichment that may be adapted to chlorophenols in the industrial zone at Umm-Saied city (Qatar). The bacteria were identified by 16S rDNA ... -
Phytoremediation of polluted soils and waters by native Qatari plants: Future perspectives
( Elsevier , 2020 , Article Review)Because pollution is predicted to worsen and sources of quality water for agriculture and other human activities are limited, many countries have been motivated to seek novel water sources. Qatar relies on groundwater and ... -
Investigation of heat-resistant antifungal agents from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens and Bacillus subtilis for biocontrol of mycotoxigenic fungi
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)Fungal infections of food and feed with toxigenic strains results in the accumulation of harmful metabolites. In this study, the antifungal activity of two indigenous bacterial strains Bacillus amyloliquefaciens and Bacillus ... -
Higher order self-adjoint operators with polynomial coefficients
( Texas State University - San Marcos , 2017 , Article)We study algebraic and analytic aspects of self-adjoint operators of order four or higher with polynomial coefficients. As a consequence, a systematic way of constructing such operators is given. The procedure is applied ... -
Nanofluid in tilted cavity with partially heated walls
( Elsevier , 2014 , Article)Lattice Boltzmann Method is applied to investigate the natural convection flow utilizing nanofluids in square enclosure with partially heated walls. The fluid in the cavity is a water-based nanofluid containing different ... -
Population dynamics and predatory impact of the alien jellyfish Aurelia solida (Cnidaria, Scyphozoa) in the Bizerte Lagoon (southwestern Mediterranean Sea)
( Hellenic Centre for Marine Research , 2020 , Article)Understanding the life cycle strategies and predatory impact of alien jellyfish species is critical to mitigate the impact that these organisms may have on local populations, biodiversity, and ultimately on the functioning ... -
A method for generating approximate similarity solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations
( Hindawi Publishing Corporation , 2014 , Article)Standard application of similarity method to find solutions of PDEs mostly results in reduction to ODEs which are not easily integrable in terms of elementary or tabulated functions. Such situations usually demand solving ... -
Symmetry analysis of the Klein-Gordon equation in Bianchi i spacetimes
( World Scientific , 2015 , Article)In this work we perform the symmetry classification of the Klein-Gordon equation in Bianchi I spacetime. We apply a geometric method which relates the Lie symmetries of the Klein-Gordon equation with the conformal algebra ... -
