Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) genotypes (Tigoni, Asante and Dutch Robyjn) were evaluated for quality under three light intensities, 612.2 kW (diffused), 1376 kW (direct) and 8 kW (dark) for 12 weeks. Tuber stored in dark ...

The influence of dietary habits on levels of Pb and essential elements Zn, Fe, Ca and Mg was evaluated on finger nails and scalp hair of exposed and unexposed males in Kenya using AAS. In recent years studies have shown ...

The study dealt with assessment of demographic and risk factors of lead exposure by people living in Nairobi and Mathira in Kenya by use of a standard questionnaire. The study subjects were the public vehicle drivers/conductors, ...

Fifty accessions of taro germplasm collections Colocasia esculenta L. (Schott) were collected from Kenya and Pacific Islands tarogen germplasm collections. Twenty five accessions of Kenyan taro germplasm were collected ...

were used to characterize 25 taro genotypes of Kenya. A total of 30 polymorphic alleles were generated. The number of alleles per locus ranged from 1 to 6 alleles, with an average of 3.0425 alleles across 18 loci obtained ...

Aims: SSR markers were used to infer population genetic structure variability in taro cultivars with the objective of characterizing the allelic diversity of each geographical population. Place and Duration of Study: ...

The effect of electron – phonon and Coulomb interactions between charge carriers on the properties ofcuprate superconductors, has been studied. The expectation value of the Hamiltonian was evaluated using second quantization ...

Phenomena of phase transition are a possible consequence of molecular interaction as in ordinary matter and superfluid systems, such as liquid, or electrons and nucleons interaction. These interactions are believed to be ...

Thermodynamic properties of 40,20Ca and 46 20Ca have been calculated using an intergrated nuclear model substituted into the specific heat capacity formula. The transition temperature is obtained from the graphs ...

The magnitude and spatial variation of the Coulomb potential within the boundaries of the atomic nucleus exhibits how a macroscopic variable, such as charge radius of the nucleus, will depend on the Coulomb potential ...
