Funny as it may, but obvious, people are scared of death and often times, do not want/pray to experience it. However, death is part of the events that define life; hence, all living organisms die in order to complete their life journey. Health is a state of general mental, physical, psychological, social and economic wellbeing of an individual. Therefore, health of an individual is measured by the quality of life he/she lives and how useful the individual is to the society.","PeriodicalId":434648,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Biostatistics & Biometric Applications","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128794402","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}

A most common mating design in genetics is the diallel cross which consist ofv=p(p-1)/2 crosses of p inbred lines such that the crosses of the type (i × j) = (j × i) for i,j = 1,2, ..., p.This type of mating design is called complete diallel cross (CDC) method 4 of Griffing[2]. The concept of CDC can be easily extended to double cross designs. A double cross design is obtained by crossing two unrelated F1 hybrids symbolized as (i ×j) and (k × l), where i ≠j≠k ≠l ≠i, are 4 parents and (i× j) and (k × l) are two F1’s[3]. Let nc denote the total number of crosses (experimental units) involved in an m-allele cross experiment, where m=2 or 4. Generally double cross experiments are conducted using a completely randomized design (CRD) or a randomized complete block (RCB) design involving some or all nc crosses as treatments. The number of crosses in such a mating design increases rapidly with increase in the number of lines. It leads to an overall inefficient experiment. It is for this reason that the use of incomplete block design as environment design is needed for double cross experiments [3].","PeriodicalId":434648,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Biostatistics & Biometric Applications","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132488078","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}

Manure composition emissions can be effected by soil water with the application of poultry manure. The vectors to represent the relationship between soil water characteristics and antibiotic were generated. A Semi-empirical Richards equation is employed to the biostatistical models of soil moisture while precise solutions of Richards equation obtained by using the (G′/G) expansion method and the homogeneous balance method. Then the biostatistical models which involve several variables including soil moisture content, soil depth and timescales were assumed according to the exact solutions of Semi-empirical Richards equation. At least one antibiotic was detected in all the soil water and poultry manure samples. Results confirmed that the contamination of vegetables by fecal bacteria is mainly due to the use of poultry manure. INTRODUCTION The large-scale and intensified development of livestock and poultry breeding has resulted in a large number of veterinary antibiotics being used in the aquaculture industry and increasing year by year. Accumulation of antibiotics in the organism. To satisfy the increasing demand for vegetables, despite the poverty of coastal soils and land pressure, farmers tend to intensify production by using mineral and organic fertilizers and pesticides. Today, poultry manure is frequently used as fertilizer in the study area. And poultry manure has been used as effective fertilizers for centuries. It is very low, after the body absorbs a small part, it undergoes metabolic reactions such as hydroxylation, cleavage, and glucuronidation to produce inactive products, and about 60% to 90% pass through feces as it is. Excretion of urine and excrement of livestock and poultry have undoubtedly become one of the main sources of environmental pollution by antibiotics. The drug design of antibiotics is mainly to kill pathogenic pathogens. Once they enter the environment, they will inevitably pose a potential threat to other organisms in the environment. Firstly, the resistant pathogenic bacteria or variant pathogens in livestock and poultry are produced and continuously released into the environment. Secondly, livestock and poultry continue to excrete these antibiotics or their metabolites into the environment, so that drug resistant pathogens and mutant pathogens in the environment are continuously generated. Both of these in turn stimulated the producers to increase the dosage and renew the drug varieties, which resulted in a vicious circle of “drug-contaminated environment → emergence of drug-resistant or mutated pathogens → increased dosages → environmental pollution”. Fertilization by poultry manure has shown an important variance in soil water chemical characteristics. The state for regional soil moisture reserve is the strategic storage of water resources in the district. The distribution of soil moisture directly affects the supply of groundw","PeriodicalId":434648,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Biostatistics & Biometric Applications","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131040460","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}
