Plant Inventory No. 208 Is the Official Listing of Plant Materials Accepted Into the U.S United States Department of Agriculture Plant Inventory Agricultural Research Service No. 208 Plant Materials Introduced in 1999 (Nos. 606708 - 612386) Foreword Plant Inventory No. 208 is the official listing of plant materials accepted into the U.S. National Plant Germplasm System (NPGS) between January 1 and December 31, 1999 and includes PI 606708 to PI 612386. The NPGS is managed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Agricultural Research Service (ARS). The information on each accession is essentially the information provided with the plant material when it was obtained by the NPGS. The information on an accession in the NPGS database may change as additional knowledge is obtained. The Germplasm Resources Information Network (http://www.ars-grin.gov/npgs/index.html) is the database for the NPGS and should be consulted for the current accession and evaluation information and to request germplasm. While the USDA/ARS attempts to maintain accurate information on all NPGS accessions, it is not responsible for the quality of the information it has been provided. For questions about this volume, contact the USDA/ARS/National Germplasm Resources Laboratory/Database Management Unit: [email protected] The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) prohibits discrimination in its programs on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, religion, age, disability, political beliefs and marital or familial status.

  • Glossary of Tennis Terms
    Glossary of Tennis Terms • A o Ace: a service point won by the server because the receiver doesn’t return, or even touch, the ball. Advantage (or ad) court: left-hand side of the court. o Advantage (or Ad): the point played after deuce, which if won, ends the game. o Advantage set: a set that can only be won when one opponent has won six games and is two games clear of their opponent. o All: term used when both players have the same number of points from 15-15 (15-all) to 30- 30 (30-all). When the score is 40-40 the term is deuce. o All-court player: someone who is equally comfortable playing from the baseline, mid-court and net. o Alley: (see tramlines.) o Approach shot: a shot used by a player to pin their opponent behind the baseline so that they can run to the net for a volley. • B o Back court: area behind the court between the baseline and the back fence. o Backhand: shot struck by holding the racquet in the dominant hand but swinging the racquet from the non-dominant side of the body with the back of the dominant hand pointing in the direction the ball is being hit. (See also two-handed backhand.) o Backspin: spin imparted on the underside of the ball causing it to revolve backwards while travelling forwards. Used in slice and drop shots. o Backswing: component of the swing where the racquet is taken back behind the body in preparation for the forward motion that leads to contact with the ball.

Bot. Fennici 42: 411–426. Vegetation of an area of 500 km2 in the western Khentey Mountains, northern Mon- golia is phytosociologically classified with the help of 254 relevés. Twenty-one main vegetation units are described. The study area is situated at the interface between the western Siberian dark taiga, the eastern Siberian light taiga and the Mongolian-Daurian forest steppe. A small-scale pattern of these three major vegetation types was found depending on site characteristics. Dark taiga forests of Pinus sibirica, Abies sibirica, Picea obovata, and Larix sibirica grow at the most humid sites. Light taiga forests dominated by Larix sibirica and Betula platyphylla occur on relatively dry northern slopes of the lower montane belt. Sun-exposed, southern slopes of the lower montane belt are covered by montane meadow and mountain steppe. DCA ordination suggests that the distribution of vegetation types depends on water supply and altitude.

  • Measurements of the Horizontal Coefficient of Restitution for a Superball and a Tennis Ball
    Measurements of the horizontal coefficient of restitution for a superball and a tennis ball Rod Crossa) Physics Department, University of Sydney, Sydney, NSW 2006 Australia ͑Received 9 July 2001; accepted 20 December 2001͒ When a ball is incident obliquely on a flat surface, the rebound spin, speed, and angle generally differ from the corresponding incident values. Measurements of all three quantities were made using a digital video camera to film the bounce of a tennis ball incident with zero spin at various angles on several different surfaces. The maximum spin rate of a spherical ball is determined by the condition that the ball commences to roll at the end of the impact. Under some conditions, the ball was found to spin faster than this limit. This result can be explained if the ball or the surface stores energy elastically due to deformation in a direction parallel to the surface. The latter effect was investigated by comparing the bounce of a tennis ball with that of a superball. Ideally, the coefficient of restitution ͑COR͒ of a superball is 1.0 in both the vertical and horizontal directions. The COR for the superball studied was found to be 0.76 in the horizontal direction, and the corresponding COR for a tennis ball was found to vary from Ϫ0.51 to ϩ0.24 depending on the incident angle and the coefficient of sliding friction. © 2002 American Association of Physics Teachers. ͓DOI: 10.1119/1.1450571͔ I.

  • As If in a Foreign Country, Curated by Chris Sharp 9 SEP – 22 OCT 2016

Playing with L.P. Hartley’s famous and much quoted opening sentence to The Go-Between (1953), "The past is a foreign country: they do things differently there,” the exhibition reverently collapses a number of assumptions, from the idea of the “past” to the notion of foreignness imbedded within the anachronistic designation “foreign country.” This happens through the fact that all of the artists featured here are working within a classically modernist tradition– a past that is still very much present– which they either idiosyncratically elaborate upon or hybridize with other indigenous and arts and crafts traditions.

  • Morphological and Molecular Characterization of Iranian Wild
    Morphological and Molecular Characterization of Iranian Wild Blackberry Species Using Multivariate Statistical Analysis and Inter-Simple Sequence Repeats (ISSR) Markers Ali Gharaghani ( [email protected] ) Shiraz University Mehdi Garazhian Shiraz University Saeid Eshghi Shiraz University Ahmad Tahmasebi Shiraz University Research Article Keywords: cluster analysis, correlation, genetic diversity, Rubus ssp., variability Posted Date: January 4th, 2021 DOI: https://doi.org/10.21203/rs.3.rs-136174/v1 License: This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. Read Full License Page 1/18 Abstract This study was carried out to estimate the genetic diversity and relationships of 74 Iranian blackberry genotypes assigned to 5 different species using inter- simple sequence repeats (ISSR) marker analysis and morphological trait characterization. Sixteen traits including phenological, vegetative and reproductive attributes were recorded, and 10 ISSR primers were screened. Results showed that yield and leaf width have the highest and lowest genetic diversity, (diversity index = 62.57 and 13.74), respectively. Flowering and ripening date recorded as traits having the strongest correlations (r = 0.98). The selected 10 ISSR primers produced a total of 161 amplied fragments (200 to 3500 bp) of which 113 were polymorphic. The highest, lowest and average PIC values were 0.53, 0.38 and 0.44, respectively. Principle component analysis (PCA) based on morphological traits showed that the rst six components explained 84.9% of the variations of traits studied, whilst the principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) based on ISSR data implied the rst eight principal coordinates explained 67.06% of the total variation. Cluster analysis based on morphological traits and ISSR data classied all genotypes into two and three major groups, respectively, and the distribution pattern of genotypes was mainly based on species and the geographic origins.
