In 2% of cases, a high origin of the radial artery was discovered, and in 4% of cases, a high origin of the ulnar artery was discovered. Other type of variation like common interosseous artery from Radial artery, Superior ulnar collateral artery from the Profunda brachii artery, common stem for the posterior circumflex humeral artery and Profunda brachii artery and many more were also seen. These differences are significant in a variety of diagnostic and surgical procedures. These variations' embryological source has also been examined.","PeriodicalId":19194,"journal":{"name":"New Visions in Biological Science Vol. 1","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79163906","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ability of such wild type indigenous strains to do so and compete with industrial strains of Saccharomyces cerevisae is not common in Nigeria. This study aimed at comparing the ability of Meyerozyma guilliermondii with a strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, to consume sugars (fructose, galactose, glucose, lactose, sucrose and molasses) and to convert them into ethanol during fermentation. Yeast extract (6g/L), peptone (10g/L), malt extract (6g/L) broth was supplemented with different concentrations (5g/L, 10g/L, 20g/L, 30g/L) of fructose, galactose, glucose, lactose and sucrose respectively. Sugar utilization post incubation for 96 hours at 120 rpm, 30oC was measured using a refractometer. The alcoholic yield using molasses for Meyerozyma guilliermondii 9.2±0.45 (mg/ml) was significantly higher than that of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain T (4.8±1.15 mg/ml) at 96 hours. Ethanol production from the consumption of fructose as the sole carbon source was more favourable for M. guilliermondii 2.1, 3.0, 8.11 and 9.06 (mg/ml) compared to 1.08, 3.12, 8.06 and 6.0 (mg/ml) for S. cerevisiae. Both strains displayed similar adaptation to galactose metabolism at all tested concentrations. With glucose, M. guilliermondii yielded more than its S. cerevisiae counterpart at 1.0% (4.15, 3.18 mg/ml) and 2.0% glucose (4.25, 3.3 mg/ml). At 3.0% glucose broth content, 8.15 and 9.08 mg/ml ethanol was obtained for M. guilliermondii and S. cerevisiae respectively. Sucrose utilization resulted in a 10.18 mg/ml yield of ethanol compared to a 7.06 mg/ml yield for M. guilliermondi and S. cerevisiae respectively at 3.0% sugar supplement. Meyerozyma guilliermondii displayed its ability as a highly adaptable non-Saccharomyces yeast specie capable of producing ethanol from a variety of sugars indicative of local feedstock as a suitable alternative.","PeriodicalId":19194,"journal":{"name":"New Visions in Biological Science Vol. 1","volume":"96 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83936096","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

GC and AT base molecules linked together in long chains is analogous to binary computer coding in which each molecule is either a “GC” or an “AT” (rather than a “1” or a “0”). Advanced species have significantly less DNA encoding than primitive species. The amphibian that evolved from a fish no longer needs those parts of its DNA that were exclusive to fish and so loses them. Similarly, the lizard loses those parts of its DNA that were required by amphibians, and so on up the evolutionary scale. Every species carries with it disproportionately huge amounts of inactive DNA that they themselves cannot possibly use. This is for the sole purpose of keeping biological codes in reserve as a backup contingency plan in case of mass extinctions. Every organism is thus preprogrammed with a binary encoded genetic template for what it could evolve to as a species plus endless possibilities for the evolution of new species. Darwinian natural selection is merely a small incidental part of this evolutionary process.","PeriodicalId":19194,"journal":{"name":"New Visions in Biological Science Vol. 1","volume":"16 1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91261528","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The N management plays a key role in improving crop growth, environmental safety and economics of crop production. The available N in soil remained constant with RFP; however, it decreased when K was applied in splits. During both years, N application in 25:50:25 ratios (basal + active tillering + booting) increased grain yield, straw yield, and total K and N uptake. Furthermore, K and N content in soil decreased when N was applied in three splits as opposed to two splits, where it remained constant after harvest of the second year crop.

In order to develop such as bio-fertilizer, it is necessary to find out phosphate- and potassium-solubilizing bacteria from weathered materials of denatured rock mountain. Twenty-five strains were isolated on modified Aleksandrov medium from samples of soils/weathered rocks of HaTien Mountain, KienGiang, Vietnam. Their colonies were round or irregular, white to yellow and their cells were rod-shaped and motile. Seventeen of twenty-five bacterial strains were identified by PCR technique with specific primers fd1 and rP, showed that they were capable of dissolving both phosphate and potassium. Among of them, the seven strains had high phosphate and potassium dissolution capacites (>10 mgL-1 P2O5 and >50 mgL-1 K2O) effectively. The seven strains were chosen to sequence DNAs and then compared with GenBank database of NCBI by BLAST N software.
