Many agriculturally important traits such as yield, quality and some forms of disease resistance are controlled by many genes and are known as quantitative traits (also 'polygenic' or 'complex' traits). The regions within genomes that contain genes associated with a particular quantitative trait are known as quantitative trait loci, QTLs. Identifying genetic loci contributing to variation in quantities traits is a problem of great importance to plant and animal breeders. With the recent development in molecular marker analysis, it is now feasible to analyze both the simply inherited and...

The fermentation of dairy foods presents one of the oldest methods of long-term food preservation. Probiotic is defined as "a live microbial feed supplement which beneficially affects the host animal by improving its intestinal microbial balance." Probiotics also defined as "live micro-organisms, that when included in foods can influence the composition and the activity of the gut microbiota, modulate the inflammatory response, improve the nonspecific intestinal barrier, and reinforce or modulate the mucosal and the systemic immune response.'' . The mechanisms through which probiotics exert...

The present work discussed the different water production techniques that used to overcome physical water scarcity problem. A new water production technique called "Water Recovery from Atmospheric Air" is introduced as an innovative solution. This system depends on extraction of water vapor from atmospheric air by using wet desiccant material during night time then evaporates the absorbed water during the day time by solar energy and the evaporated water condensate on the solar collector sides. In order to investigate the system performance, a new mathematical model is introduced. The new...

The present work is a mineralogical, sedimentological and geochemical prospecting survey of heavy minerals, through applying a systematic geochemical survey using stream sediments samples, at Hammam Faraun area, Sinai, Egypt. The majority of the sediments belong to the very coarse to coarse grained sand fraction, extremely poorly sorted with only a few being moderately well sorted. The deposition environment was proposed through two methods indicated that the majority of the sediments were river sands deposited in a fluviatile environment. Geochemical maps were prepared and existing...
