Sypmtomatology of Tobacco Mosaic Virus (TMV) and Chilli Veinal Mottle Virus (CVMV) on six local Chilli
Get PDFSingle and mixed inoculations of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and chilli veinal mottle virus (CVMV)
were carried out mechanically on one month old seedlings of stx local chilli cultivars to study symptomatology.
Test seedlings singly infected expressed symptoms typical of the ISolate whereas mixed infection resulted in plants
showing combined symptoms of both Isolates

On the quality requirements of demand prediction for dynamic public transport
No full textAs Public Transport (PT) becomes more dynamic and demand-responsive, it increasingly depends on predictions of transport demand. But how accurate need such predictions be for effective PT operation? We address this question through an experimental case study of PT trips in Metropolitan Copenhagen, Denmark, which we conduct independently of any specific prediction models. First, we simulate errors in demand prediction through unbiased noise distributions that vary considerably in shape. Using the noisy predictions, we then simulate and optimize demand-responsive PT fleets via a linear programming formulation and measure their performance. Our results suggest that the optimized performance is mainly affected by the skew of the noise distribution and the presence of infrequently large prediction errors. In particular, the optimized performance can improve under non-Gaussian vs. Gaussian noise. We also find that dynamic routing could reduce trip time by at least 23% vs. static routing. This reduction is estimated at 809,000 €/year in terms of Value of Travel Time Savings for the case study.Signal Processing System

A 44, 1817 (1991)Author Institution: Joint Institute for Laboratory Astro Physics and Department of Physics, University of ColoradoWe are developing a multichannel quantum defect formulation to describe the collision of a Rydberg or continuum electron with a vibrating and rotating polyatomic We formulate a full rovibronic frame transformation which accounts simultaneously for vibrationally and rotationally inelastic collisions (preionization) and uncoupling. Interactions among degenerate Rydberg series, arising from Jahn-Teller distortions of molecular geometry, play an important role in the formulation. As application to the Rydberg photoabsorption spectrum of accounts for many of its observed $features.^{2}
Konflik komunikasi antarabudaya: pola komunikasi dan strategi pengurusan konflik komunikasi di kalangan majikan Malaysia dan PRA Indonesia
No full textKertas kerja ini membincangkan perihal pola komunikasi dan strategi pengurusan konflik komunikasi di kalangan Pembantu rumah asing (PRA) Indonesia dan Majikan Malaysia. Kajian tinjauan kuantitatif menggunakan instrumen soal selidik ini
dilaksanakan sekitar Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur. Seramai 110 pasang (majikan dan PRA) sekitar Kuala Lumpur dipilih sebagai responden kajian ini menggunakan teknik persampelan mudah dan rantaian bertujuan. Bagi dapatan kajian berkaitan pola komunikasi, data menunjukkan bahawa majikan dan PRA sama-sama mengamalkan komunikasi konteks tinggi dan juga mengutamakan komunikasi dua hala. Manakala bagi strategi pengurusan konflik komunikasi pula majikan lebih mengamalkan strategi dominasi manakala PRA lebih mengamalkan strategi mengelak. Cadangan kajian menekankan agar majikan dan PRA sama-sama berusaha mengenal pasti budaya dan cara hidup masing-masing agar penerimaan dan adaptasi budaya dapat berlaku lalu membawa keharmonian dalam perhubungan
Intercultural communication and conflict management among Malaysian employers and Indonesian domestic workers in Kuala Lumpur
No full textThis paper aims to investigate sources of conflict in communication at the domestic workplace among Malaysian employers and Indonesian domestic workers in Kuala Lumpur. The following questions will be addressed: what patterns and context of communication do they use, what strategies do they use in managing with these conflicts? The data collection methods included both descriptive quantitative and qualitative that consisted of a survey questionnaire, open-ended guided interviews, and a review of the relevant literature. Data were collected from the 110 Malaysian employers and 110 Indonesian domestic workers in Kuala Lumpur who filled out the survey in January 2009. The findings indicate that: 1) conflicts in communication at domestic workplace among participants arose out of culturally-based differences in context and pattern of communication, difference assumptions about verbal and non-verbal or direct and indirect communication styles, and differences strategy in manage these conflict 2) The Malaysian employers tended to use either a dominating style or an integrating style in dealing with conflict, and 3) The Indonesian domestic workers tended to use either a avoiding style or integrating style in dealing with conflict. Finally, this study makes recommendations as how to better prepare Indonesian domestic workers working with Malaysian employers at domestic workplace in Malaysia and other Indonesian domestic workers working in intercultural or international domestic workplace, to resolve culturally-based interpersonal conflicts more effectively
