Sugarcane is one of the most important industrial crops of the tropical and sub-tropical areas in the world. Continued breeding efforts for enhancing sugar and yield led to significant gain in cane yield but stagnant growth has been observed in terms of sucrose content. Multi-specific origin, high ploidy levels, and unstable genetic constitution have posed sugarcane as a challenging crop for plant breeders. Covering the huge sugarcane genome requires a large number of potentially informative molecular markers. The deployment of advanced molecular technologies facilitate the detection of the association of target traits with DNA markers, that can assist in fine tuning and accelerating the pace of sugarcane breeding programs. Microsatellite or simple sequence repeats (SSRs) are versatile marker system due to its inherited genetic attributes. The development of the microsatellite markers is the attractive complement that represents a powerful tool for genetic studies in sugarcane genome. The current book has discussed the mining of ESTs genetic resources to develop SSR markers, their applications in genetics and breeding of sugarcane, related grasses and other orphan cereals.

1. The finite element analysis of Truck Chassis Frame is carried out using 10 noded brick element. The static and Modal analysis is carried out. 2. The Static analysis has a significant effect on the overall stresses in the Chassis Frame. 3. By using Stainless steel and Duralumin materials Static and modal analysis was done to see stress and mode shapes of structure. 4. By comparing Results of Stainless Steel and Duralumin. Finally, we can say Duralumin is better than Structural Steel. MATERIAL DEFORMATION(mm) STRESS (Mpa) Factor of safety STRUCTURAL STEEL 1.71 58.491 4.2 DURALUMIN 4.76 58.1 7.7 5. Chassis designed now is capable of withstanding to the loads up to 18 tones with minimum weight by using Duralumin. 6 . From tabular column Duralumin is better than Structural Steel. 7. . From the above table it can be understandable that though the deformation is more for . duralumin it is more stronger due to its higher factor of safety. 8. As Duralumin is a light weight material the weight of the chassis decreases and therefore . the vehicle efficiency increases.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of plumpynut in the rehabilitation of children who suffer from SAM in South Kordofan. To achieve that objective, changes in nutritional status using indicators such as (weight, length, MUAC, blood profiles, and psychological behavior) were monitored and assessed. The criteria used to include patients in the study are as follows: children aging 6-24 months with SAM without medical complications and with appetite.

This book is a suite of articles, studies, and scientific papers on the "hybrid conflict" topic. This type of conflict is present in literature, especially in the military, since 2004, when it first appeared in American writings. Ten years later, Russia successfully implemented the concept in its actions such as the annexation of Crimea and the aggression of Ukraine, after practicing various combinations in Georgia and Estonia. The concept of hybrid war describes the mix of conventional, unconventional and irregular components that combine into unique forms and in all confrontational environments. In this context, the book addresses aspects such as: the role of information in the decision-making process, the importance of applying critical and creative thinking in planning operations, ways to prepare for military operations and, of course, the consequences and repercussions of the phenomenon in the security environment that generated changes and adaptations of strategies at the national level (the case of Romania), at the level of the European Union and NATO.

Statistics are clear that DBT considerably falls short in treating the client that presents with co-occurring SUD and BPD. As psychotherapists seek to ever evolve their intervention techniques in the best interest of client care, this research sought to identify DBT¿s current effectiveness when it is applied to individuals who have a co-occurring mental health and substance use disorder from the perspective of DBT practitioners, and to offer suggestions in order to increase treatment success for the SUD-BPD patient.

Our planet earth is facing various environmental problems caused due to man-made activities. These problems are causing long term damage to several ecosystems. We all have to come together to create sustainable development strategies and mitigation policies for environmental problems. Common people and students must be made aware about causes, impacts and remedies for environmental issues. This book constitutes research and review papers on various topics like various Environmental Problems, Effect of mobile tower radiations on birds, Mitigation Policies, Environment Education, and Public Participation, Use of Compost for Carbon Sequestration , Bioremediation, Phytomonitoring and Phytoremediation, Legislative attempts for Environment Protection, Microbial Degradation and Detoxification of dyes, Nanofluids , E-waste and Disposal Techniques, Green and Cloud Computing, Sustainable Tourism etc. written by professors and researchers. This book is useful for researchers, academicians, students, nature lovers, environmentalists, government officials and policy makers etc.

Most of the scholarly literature on the cinema of Michelangelo Antonioni focuses on the director's distinctive film style. Many studies mention his relationship to various modern art movements and the thematic ambiguity of his work, but few position Antonioni's later films in their modernist context and within the contemporary phenomenon of ambiguity. This study attempts to situate Antonioni within the larger, contextualizing discourse of modernism and its "problematics of language".
