Components of genetic variance and interrelationship among quantitative traits in CAZRI-bred inbred restorers of pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.] [PDF]
Genetic variation, heritability, genetic advance and association among various traits were investigated in a set of 47 inbred restorer lines developed under inbred development programme at CAZRI, Jodhpur.

Rotational disruption of dust grains by mechanical torques for high-velocity gas-grain collisions [PDF]
Dust grains moving at hypersonic velocities of $v_{d}\gtrsim 100\rm km~s^{-1}$ through an ambient gas are known to be destroyed by nonthermal sputtering. Yet, previous studies of nonthermal sputtering disregarded the fact that dust grains can be spun-up to suprathermal rotation by stochastic mechanical torques from gas-grain collisions.

Coarse-graining schemes and a posteriori error estimates for stochastic lattice systems [PDF]
The primary objective of this work is to develop coarse-graining schemes for stochastic many-body microscopic models and quantify their effectiveness in terms of a priori and a posteriori error analysis. In this paper we focus on stochastic lattice systems of interacting particles at equilibrium. %such as Ising-type models.

The Role of Spike Photosynthesis and Foliar Application of IAA on Grain Yield and its Components of Two Wheat Cultivars in Late Season Drought Stress [PDF]
Drought stress is a major cause of reduction in crop production. According to the role of various plant parts, especially the spike photosynthesis in grain filling and the regulatory roles of IAA in formation of grain yield, a split plot-factorial ...

Torques on Spheroidal Silicate Grains Exposed to Anisotropic Interstellar Radiation Fields [PDF]
Radiative torques, due to the absorption and scattering of starlight, are thought to play a major role in the alignment of grains with the interstellar magnetic field. The absorption of radiation also gives rise to recoil torques, associated with the photoelectric effect and photodesorption.
