- summary: Aquaponics Whilst aquaponics may have ancient antecedents it was likely first developed in its modern form in the mid- 1970’s by scientists researching methods for treating re- cycled water in fish culture systems (Love et al., 2015). Biofloc fish production systems operate with minimum or zero water exchange.

- summary: The potas- sium content of grafted Sawadi fruits increased when Rsscih7458 and Mubyeongjangsoo rootstocks were used and showed significant differences with non-graft- ed controls in both season that is good for human due to increase the nutritional value of muskmelon fruit. In fall 2012, flowering in Ezra rootstock plants was significantly delayed relative to other treatments; in spring 2013 all treatments with the exception of Mubyeongjangsoo were delayed rela- tive to the non-grafted control.

- date: 2020-09-20
- words: 4399
- flesch: 59
- summary: At high fish density, water quality was not as good (i.e. high ammonia and nitrite) as in low fish density, therefore, growth of abalone was better in the treatment with low fish density. Although there was significant difference in abalone weight between Treatment 1 (low fish den- sity) and Treatment 3 (high fish density), there was no significant difference in terms of shell length indicating that body weight and shell length are not proportional or correlated and that weight is a better indicator of ab- alone growth.

Analysis between sea level and atmospheric pressure reveals a signif- icant coherence, which meant that along the Northern Coast of Oman Sea, mean sea level responded to atmospheric pressure as an inverse barometer.

- summary: At mar- ket level, the incidence of fresh produce quality losses and deterioration can occur due to poor management (Sharma and Singh, 2011) and performance of traders, processors, producers, retailers and other labors in the marketing system. For example, 55% of the ven- dors suggested that nature of the product was the most important barrier causing fresh produce losses as they are highly perishable (Nath et al., 2018), sensitive (Parfitt et al., 2010) and required careful storage, transportation and handling facilities (Kader, 2013) before they reach to the market.

- summary: The traditional drying process of fish causes the loss of 30-40% of dried fish due to eating by dogs, birds, cats, and rats, especially during winter when drying takes about a week (Sablani et al., 2002). Indeed, this factor causes a reduction on the revenue of dried fish, which also suffers from the contamination by sand particles.

- summary: Therefore, since the prior treatment with NaCl salt increased the WC of the plant tissue (Table 1. and 2.) and the content of chlorophyll in the leaves (Figure 2), all these factors increased the efficiency of the photosynthesis process and increased plant growth. Increas- ing the plant’s absorption of some elements, such as Na and Cl ions reduced the availability of some nutrients necessary for plant growth, such as nitrogen, phospho- rous and potassium.

Furthermore, the water sent for treatment is not diluted by overlying fresh water, the volume of water to be treated is less, and water treatment costs are therefore reduced.

- summary: According to Gupta et al., (1989) sodium ions react in calcareous soils to form sodium carbonate and bicarbonate, which by hydrolyzing at pH values more than of 8.8, leads to a direct relationship between soil salinity and pH. In the absence of concentrations of sodium ions, soil pH has also been found to decrease as salinity increases. A negative relationship was found between soil salinity and pH. The main factor contributing to this relationship was probably the presence of soluble Ca2+ ion in soil.

- summary: Furthermore, sound evidence has been presented that the variable domains found in camel HCAbs are encoded by other genes than those of four chain immunoglobulins (Nguyen et al., 1998) and raises the likelihood that V(H) genes of HCAbs do not arise through an ontogenic process of somatic hypermutation. Camel neutrophils appear to have highly electron dense and less dense granules that likely correspond to the primary and specific granules reported in most other animal species (Ali et al., 1989).

- summary: Patterns of live weight changes from weaning until the age of 13 months according to the class of live weight are shown in Figure 1. Reproductive Characteristics at 1 Year of Age In November 2005, when the ewe lambs were aged 13 months, they were subjected to laparoscopy for the determination of the ovarian status. Following synchronisation with progestagen of the females found cycling, levels of plasma IGF-I concentrations between 6 and 42 hrs after removal of sponges were not significantly different between the three classes of live weight, and respectively averaged 94.2, 90.8 and 89.8 µg/l for LWCI, LWCII and LWCIII females.

- summary: In develop- ment, the performance of new fouling management is compared to a standard of an existing coating with de- sired fouling management performance, but with unac- ceptable environmental impacts. One of the most difficult and expensive transitions is the regulatory path that moves intellectual property, e.g., the development of new fouling management additives, to commercial availability.

- summary: If confirmed in more exten- sive studies this would potentially restrict the inclusion of lantern fish meal to < 30% in a formulated aquafeed, assuming that fish meal was the only source of these metals. The dependence of the aquafeed industry on finite quantities of fish meal and marine oils has brought into question the continued growth of the aquaculture industry and has stimulated a major research effort to find alternative, renewable supplies of protein and oils, which can be uti- lized in aquafeeds.

- summary: The mean TP in Omani camels (Table 1) was 6.17 mg·dL-1 (range of 5.5-6.8 ± 0.34 mg·dL-1 which are within range reported for normal values in 2-12 year old Arabian camels (6.0-7.8 mg·dL-1) by Wernery et al. (1999) and the range reported by Yadav and Bis- sa, (1998) for camels of various sexes, breeds and ages. Mohri et al (2008) reported a value of 5.3 µmol/l total bilirubin in serum of Iranian camels which is similar to that re- corded in Omani camels in the present study.
