...Rooting of stem cuttings of five pomegranate types selected from Delibekirli village, Kırıkhan (Antakya, Hatay-Turkey) taken in different periods under mist-propagation were investigated. The cuttings were prepared as 20-25 cm in length from wood shoots, and 1,000 ppm indolebutyric acid (IBA) was used as a rooting hormone. In the study, rooting ratio (%), root number, and root length of the cutting were measured. Among the cuttings rooted, the highest rooting percentage was observed in 31-N-01, while the lowest rooting percentage in 31-N-05. The cuttings taken at the end of February had higher rooting percentage than those taken at the beginning of October. The 1,000 ppm IBA treated cutting had a slightly higher rooting percentage than the control. The number of roots was highest in the cutting of the 31-N-01 type and lowest in the cutting of the 31-N-05 type. There were higher roots in the 1,000 ppm IBA treated cuttings than the control cuttings for the 31-N-01, 31-N-02 and 31N-03 types whereas the 31-N-04 and 31-N-05 types had lower roots in the 1,000 ppm IBA treated cuttings than the control cuttings. 31-N-01 type when compared to others gave more favorable results in terms of root length. The 1,000 ppm IBA treatment affected positively rooting percent of cuttings and the other characteristics although it was not to the satisfactory level. It was concluded that the increasing dose of IBA could be useful. Www.actahort.org/books/818/818-27.htm Indole-3-Butyric Acid (IBA) is...

...Basic Techniques for Propagating Plants Many types of plants in and around the home can easily be propagated using fairly simple, inexpensive procedures. Today’s demonstration will highlight a few of the basic and most widely applicable techniques for vegetative propagation of plants. Some of these techniques can be used for houseplants, annual flowers, and bedding plants, whereas other techniques are more effective for woody ornamental trees and shrubs, ground covers, and vines. There are many reasons for propagating plants. One basic reason is simply to make multiple plants from a single plant. Another reason is to make a young attractive plant from an old, leggy plant. Other reasons are to propagate a particular plant because of its unique or attractive features and to propagate plants for sentimental reasons. Regardless of the reason for propagating plants, there are some basic factors that are useful to ensure success: * use only healthy, vigorous source plants; * use the most appropriate method, growth stage, and timing for the plant; * protect propagation material from heat and from drying; use the material as quickly as possible after it is prepared; * give newly propagated plants extra attention and care during their establishment phase; TECHNIQUES: The demonstration will focus on techniques for vegetative propagation of plants. Plants propagated using these methods have the same characteristics as the parent or source plant since vegetative material...

...INSTRUCTIONAL SHEET FOR STUDENTS PROPAGATION BY AIR-LAYERING OBJECTIVES Students should be able to: ❖ Demonstrated the steps involved in Air-layering propagation. ❖ Explain the reason for using rooting hormone and scraping of cambium layer on stem. NOTES PROPAGATION BY AIR LAYERING Air layering or marcotting is a form of asexual plant propagation. This is a form of propagation that involves the use of plant parts, other than seeds to produce new plants. The process of Air-layering involves a system whereby new plants are formed on a stem while still being attached to the parent plant. SAFETY WARNING 1. Care should be taken when using the budding knife so as not to cause injury to oneself or others. 2. Gloves should be worn at all times to insure that rooting hormone does not come into contact with skin. MATERIALS AND EQUIPMENT NEEDED: 1. Plants to layer 2. Rooting hormone 3. Secateurs 4. Sharp sterilized budding knife 5. Damp cocoa moss 6. Clear plastic wrap 7. String 8. Brush 9. Latex gloves. STEP INVOLVED IN THE PROCESS OF AIR-LAYERING 1. Select a branch from a healthy plant. Stems of pencil size thickness or larger are best and remove any leaves that are present. 2. The chosen stem is girdled i.e. using a sharp budding knife two circular cuts are made on the stem at 3c.m. apart. 3. A third cut...

The wild boar belongs to the phylum Chordata since it has a structure called a notochord, class Mammalia because the female boar has mammary glands, order Artiodactyla since it is an even-toed ungulate and family Suidae since it is a type of pig. Wild boars are native to western Europe and northern Africa and were introduced to the United States by early explorers in 1912 (Dobson 1998). Wild boars quickly adapted to the new environment and began spreading throughout the country. The biology of the wild boar is related to the success of the wild boar invasions. The wild boar can eat wide range of food. The wild boar spends a lot of time rooting for bulbs and invertebrates and they also...

...for optimal use of land. * Reduces maintenance effort as trees have faster growth rates and are more competitive. (Mbora et al. 2009) Types of seedling root distortions that can develop in containers, and their causes There are two main causes for root distortions in container grown trees; plant handling techniques used at nurseries during the propagation phase, and the container design which affects root growth and architecture (Moore 2001). Kinked roots/ J-rooting: Angular distortions of more than 90 degrees in the main roots, just below the surface. This type of root distortion occurs due to lack of care when inserting a struck cutting or seedling into a dibbled hole. It can have serious structural consequences, such as the weakening of the trunk/root interface, increasing the tree’s susceptibility to wind breakage. In extreme cases J-roots can cause the tree trunk to lie in the soil whereby the stem can fall out several years after planting (Moore 2001; Thomas et al. 2008). J-rooting contributes...

...Reflexes are unconscious actions in response to stimuli. Neonates perform different types of reflexes which help then to survive as newborns and also help healthcare providers to examine normal brain and nerve activity in neonates (Swaiman & Phillips, 2017). Some reflexes occur only during specific period of time in the development of the infant. Some of the reflexes observed in the newborns include, Rooting, Sucking, Grasping, Stepping, Moro, Babkin, Swimming, Tonic neck, and Babinski (Wright, 2016). Rooting reflex occurs with check stimulation and in response the neonate turns the head toward the stimulation site; this reflex becomes inactive at 4 months. Sucking reflex begins at 32 weeks of pregnancy and is not completely developed until 36 weeks of pregnancy. This reflex is activated with mouth stimulation and in response, the newborn begins sucking, it also becomes dormant at 4 months. Grasping reflex is present until 4 months and it is stimulated by touching the palm of the newborn which will close the fingers in a grasp. Stepping reflex is only active until 2 months; it is stimulated by holding the newborn upright making the neonate stepping in motion. The Moro reflex is when the newborn extends arms and legs outward and it is stimulated by loud noise or movement; this reflex lasts until the...

...Infancy (birth to 1 year) * Physical development * Reflexes: * Rooting reflex: The rooting reflex is present at birth; it assists in breastfeeding, disappearing at around four months of age as it gradually comes under voluntary control. * Sucking reflex: The sucking reflex is common to all mammals and is present at birth. It is linked with the rooting reflex and breastfeeding, and causes the child to instinctively suck at anything that touches the roof of their mouth and suddenly starts to suck simulating the way they naturally eat. * Gag reflex: gagging when the throat or back of the mouth is stimulated. * Startle reflex: pulling arms and legs in after hearing loud noise. * Babinski reflex: occurs when the big toe moves toward the top surface of the foot and the other toes fan out after the sole of the foot has been firmly stroked. * Social development * Social behavior based on the social relationship experienced Parenting Styles (enumerate and describe) Parenting Style | Parent Behavior | Child’s Behavior | 1 Authoritarian Parenting | These parents have high demands, but are not responsive to their children.

...Plant propagation is the process of creating new plants from a variety of sources: seeds, cuttings, bulbs and other plant parts. Plant propagation can also refer to the artificial or natural dispersal of plants. Sexual Reproduction – pollination (plants or trees that have flowers) Asexual Reproduction *Natural *Artificial Natural Methods of Asexual Reproduction Natural methods of asexual reproduction include strategies that plants have developed to self-propagate. Many plants, such as ginger, onion, gladioli, and dahlia, continue to grow from buds that are present on the surface of the stem. In some plants, such as the sweet potato, adventitious roots or runners (stolons) can give rise to new plants . In Bryophyllum and kalanchoe, the leaves have small buds on their margins. When these are detached from the plant, they grow into independent plants; they may also start growing into independent plants if the leaf touches the soil. Some plants can be propagated through cuttings alone. Runners: asexual reproduction A stolon, or runner, is a stem that runs along the ground. At the nodes, it forms adventitious roots and buds that grow into a new plant. Artificial Methods of Asexual Reproduction Artificial methods of asexual reproduction are frequently employed to give rise to new, and sometimes novel, plants. They include grafting, cutting, layering, and micropropagation. Grafting Grafting has long been used to produce novel varieties of roses, citrus species, and...

...The police in America (The Knapp & Mollen Commission) Jarrett M. Adams CJL300.98.SP.12 POLICE & SOCIETY Professor Bill Harmening April 3, 2012 Introduction Police corruption comes at an extraordinary cost. First and foremost, a corrupt act committed by any law official is a crime. Police corruption also diminishes the integrity of the police and tarnishes the public image of law enforcement. Furthermore, corruption protects other criminal activity such as drug dealing and prostitution. Protected criminal activities are a huge threat to the community because they are able to operate with the help of law enforcement. This paper will explore the efforts put forth by the Government to control police corruption with the hopes of ridding it from society. The Knapp Commission In the spring of 1970, then New York City Mayor John V. Lindsay placed a call to Federal Judge Percy Whitman Knapp. This phone call led to Knapp’s most visible role: chairman of a five-member commission that uncovered, after many months of investigating, a pattern of corruption familiar in precinct houses throughout the five boroughs of New York. This corruption included shakedowns at bars and construction sites to accepting payoffs from gamblers and drug dealers to ignore their criminal operations. The major catalyst for the inquiry came from a series of articles in The New York Times by David Burnham, an investigative reporter who...

...for great skill in horsemanship. As the author states “Bones was always ready for a frolic or a fight. He had 3 or 4 boon companions who regarded him as their model, and at the head of whom he scoured the country, attending every scene of feud or merriment for miles round” (page 821). By having his boons they lead him to being well known. Brom Bones was a very popular person. By being well known he got the prettiest girl in town, Katrina Tassel. Brom Bone’s horse was full of mettle and mischief that means his horse was hard to manage. His horse was named Daredevil. Brom Bones was also known as a big jokester. He was setting up a prank for Ichabod Crane, his rival. Brom Bones dressed himself up as a headless horse man. The author had us rooting for the bad guy, which switches things up. Who was the bad guy and who was the good guy ? The last character but not least is Van Tassel. Van Tassel was so much described in the short story. The most we get from the author is that he is really rich. He lives in a mansion. His house was full with fine furniture and household goods. He had a common room large enough to accommodate dancers and have a huge party. When Ichabod entered his heart was complete. As the author states “ It was on of those spacious farmhouses, with high-ridged but lowly slopping roofs, built in the style handed down from the first Dutch settlers” ( page 820) , Ichabod was falling in love more and more with his house. From the moment that Ichabod...
