Variability and Association of Characters among Common Bean (Phaseolus Vulgaris L.) Genotypes in Southern Ethiopia
Abstract: This experiment was conducted in Guraghe and Siltie Zones of Southern Ethiopia to assess the extents of variability and associations of characters among common bean genotypes. Data were collected on nine quantitative traits. The analysis of variance revealed significant variation among the traits. Moderate genotypic and phenotypic coefficient of variation was observed for 100 seeds’ weight, pod length and seed per plant. Highest heritability and genetic advances as percent mean …

Utilization of Waste Polyethylene Terephthalate with Bitumen for Road Construction
Abstract: Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is commonly used for soft drink water bottles and other applications. However, disposal of this waste PET in large quantities causes environmental problem, as it is considered non-biodegradable material. This study investigated utilization of waste PET mixed with 60/70 penetration grade of bitumen to be as a raw material for road construction. The effect of temperature (140, 150, 160°C), composition of PET (4, 8, 12%) and mixing …

Evaluation of Electrical and Thermal Energy Performance of a Semi-transparent Photovoltaic Module Integrated Double Pane Window System Under Different Air Flow Strategies
Abstract: Prudent manoeuvring of waste heat generated in the air cavity of a double pane photovoltaic window can increase thermal output besides improving energy generation. This paper presents the performance of a Cadmium Telluride (CdTe) thin-film semi-transparent photovoltaic (STPV) module integrated double pane window system under three different modes of operation. The modes of operation cover direct and indirect influences of the indoor environment in the cavity air flow. For simulation …

Gene prioritization of colorectal cancer using computational approach
Abstract: Colorectal cancer (CRC) continues to be a major worldwide health issue, underscoring the need to pinpoint crucial genetic elements influencing its initiation and advancement. In this investigation, we utilize sophisticated computational methods to prioritize potential genes linked to CRC development. Through the utilization of various bioinformatics tools and comprehensive methodologies, we systematically examine extensive microarray datasets to identify potential genetic contributors. Initially, a vast amount of CRC microarray data (approximately …

A Single-domain Antibody Cross-reacts with Lipopolysaccharide from Diverse Gram-negative Bacteria
Abstract: Gram-negative bacterial sepsis and endotoxemia are the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in animals and humans worldwide, and attempts have continued to design rational therapies. Endotoxin/lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-neutralizing polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies have been produced, but are not free from problems. Single-domain antibodies (dAbs), constructed from the camelid and the shark ‘heavy chain antibodies’ by phage display technology possess favorable features for in vivo applications. The objective of this study …

REBONDING FOREST FIBRE TO SUSTAINABLE DEPLOYMENT
Abstract: The significance of wood in artistic manipulations is unraveled to any other material used in engineering, commercial or in infrastructural uses. All this is at the cost of eco-sustainability, not directly because manufacturing remains ecofriendly, but indirectly; because forests are expended in realization of this raw material. The author pre-supposes that with the mere thought of cutting a tree, environmental degradation has already begun [1]. As a preventive measure, least …
