It is extremely important to monitor the sustainability of National Park by extracting land use land cover change information over the period of time using satellite imagery which is the main application of change detection. The aim of this research study is to assess the land use land cover change at Khirthar National Park by acquiring multispectral Land sat satellite imagery to detect decadal information from 1992 to 2019 using supervised classification Maximum Likelihood classifier. The Land sat satellite data used in this research study was almost of the summer season to assess land use land cover change using supervised classification Maximum Likelihood Classifier and results showed increasing trend in agriculture while decreasing trend in natural vegetation at Khirthar National Park which is a clear indication of increasing anthropogenic activities. The supervised classification Maximum Likelihood Algorithm used to detect land use land cover change at Khirthar National Park results overall accuracy in the year 1992, 2000, 2010 and 2019 was 99.7446%, 99.4536%, 99.6495% and 96.7530% while the kappa statistics results achieved in the year 1992, 2000, 2010 and 2019 was 0.9951, 0.9879, 0.9648 and 0.9503. These increasing human activities will not only disturbs the ecology of National Park but also will impact on the local flora and fauna of the park, therefore it is highly recommended to prevent further loss of biodiversity, natural eco-system and the sustainable management for such natural heritage.","PeriodicalId":21859,"journal":{"name":"Sindh University Research Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75008634","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}

Their target ERG-11 and its downstream protein ERG-5 play significant roles in resistance to the azoles. Both of them belong to the cytochrome P450 family proteins. Except them, there are many other P450 family proteins, but their contribution to fungal drug-resistance is not clear. In this research, we analyzed the effects of cytochrome P450 family proteins on fungal drug-resistance to azoles using the model filamentous fungus N. crassa as research material. Through the azole susceptibility test to the knockout mutants of 18 P450 family proteins including ERG-5, we found that the other 17 P450 family proteins except ERG-5, have the similar susceptibility to azole drugs to the wild-type. Furthermore, we determined the sensitivity of these knockout mutants to benzoic acid, and screened a sensitive mutant to that drug. The corresponding gene (NCU08128) encodes a phenyl-4-monooxygenase.We further analyzed the possible mechanism of the sensitivity of this gene to benzoic acid. We confirmed the roles of the other cytochrome P450 family proteins except ERG-11 and ERG-5in fungal resistance to azole drugs, using the model filamentous fungus N. crassaas research material. The above researches enriched the drug resistance mechanism of filamentous fungi and provided new targets for the development of novel antifungal drugs.","PeriodicalId":21859,"journal":{"name":"Sindh University Research Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85860296","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}

Most of the data traffic are generated from mobile devices. Due to this explosion of data traffic, existing network architecture is incapable in handling such a massive data traffic. The Network Mobility Basic Support Protocol (NEMO-BSP) is an extended version of Mobile Internet Protocol (MIPv6) that is designed to support seamless communications between homogenous and heterogeneous network domains. But NEMO-BSP is suffer very high binding and tunnel cost. The Proxy Mobility Scheme Protocol (PMIPv6) was developed to overcome issues of binding and tunnel cost. There have been many attempts to reduce the binding and tunnel cost. In this research work a multipath mobile IP protocol is designed that divides data packets on multiple paths (data packers on multiple sub-flows) without tunnel formation in the mobile network environment. the Multiple Mobile Internet Protocol Scheme (MMIPS). The network is divided into domain zones called intra-domain and inter-domain zones. The proposed protocol is aimed to remove the tunnel burden and reduce the packet size which significantly reduce the binding and tunnel cost. An analytical result are show that the proposed scheme binding and packet cost is less than compared schemes.","PeriodicalId":21859,"journal":{"name":"Sindh University Research Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77123071","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 present examination region is proposed to think about and archive the medicative plants, their medicinal use, and the customary information utilized every now and again by the inhabitants of the Rahim Yar Khan and Cholistan desert Punjab, Pakistan. The old regional cures of these zones are lessening because of the absence of subjective and mensurable research. The investigation recorded a rundown of different medicative plants utilized as conventional prescriptions by natives. The examination uncovered that the neighborhood individuals of the study zones acquire a rich customary information however there is an extraordinary threat of losing this abundance of information sooner rather than later. Documentation of the information is from Rahim Yar Khan and surrounding areas, Pubjab, Pakistan is remarkable data in its temperament.
