A shield was developed to mount on a small plot combine header to separate and flatten adjacent unwanted rows from selected rows being harvested. Additional shielding was added underneath the combine to prevent stray spikes from discarded rows entering the combine. Approximately 25% more single row plots could be harvested per day with a plot combine modified with this device. Key words: Equipment, modification, wheat

SUMMARYA method is proposed for correcting for competition effects in yield trials by joint regression of plot yields on to the yields of neighbours. Estimation of the variety effects and competition coefficient along with tests of significance are described for a sugar-beet trial with single-row plots where competition effects are assumed to extend only to plants in immediately adjacent rows. For designs which are balanced for neighbouring varieties it is feasible to estimate separate varietal competition coefficients which may be partitioned into components for sensitivity and aggressiveness. An example is given of this extended model fitted to a competition diallel of seven species. While species differed in their sensitivity to competition there was no essential difference between inter- and intra-species behaviour. The model is used to assess comparative varietal performance in monocultures from performance in small plot trials.(Note that the general term ‘variety’ is used throughout this paper to refer to progenies at any stage in a selection programme.)

In a 3-yr pasture trial, herbage yield and cattle preference were recorded on a small plot area which was mob-grazed by cattle. Sampling grazed plots with quadrats had greater variability associated with the technique than traditional mechanical harvesting techniques, but the technique allowed grazing to continue on the remaining plot area so that other information such as cattle preference ratings could be collected. Results indicated that differences (P < 0.001) in herbage yield between cultivars could be detected despite having greater coefficients of variation than traditional mechanical harvesting methods and that differences (P < 0.001) in cattle preference could be determined using visual rating scores.

The production potential of 29 grain amaranth genotypes was evaluated in southwestern Québec. Considerable variation was observed for all variables studied. In single row plots, grain yield per plant ranged between 13 and 73 g DM (dry matter) plant-1, while in mechanically managed plots grain yield ranged between 432 and 979 kg DM ha-1. All genotypes matured before the first killing frost, but moisture at harvest was high (average of 26%). Grain amaranth production in southwestern Québec seems possible.

The paper summarizes the results of push-off tests conducted on 42 end stub assemblages. Written for conventional composite construction, the current Canadian Standards Association (CSA) standard on stud connectors offers little guidance for stub–girder design. A stud spacing of four times the stud diameter (the CSA requirement) does not appear to be adequate for a full development of the potential shear capacity of a stud connector in the stub–girder system. The required minimum stud spacing appears to be between five and six times the stud diameter for the case of 13 mm studs. Moreover, the CSA-recommended shear capacity of stud connector should be reduced to reflect the effect of prying forces. A modification factor of 0.9 is suggested for a 13 mm diameter stud connector. Test results for specimens with 19 mm studs indicated a further decrease in the shear capacity. However, a definite recommendation is postponed pending further tests.In addition to prying forces, stud configuration and spacing and the amount and location of transverse reinforcement must also be taken into account in determining the shear capacity of a stud connector. For a connection with 13 mm studs arranged in a single row, a reduction factor equal to stud spacing divided by six times the stud diameter is suggested when the stud spacing is less than six times the stud diameter. For a connection with staggered studs, the corresponding factor is obtained by dividing the stud spacing by five times the stud diameter when the stud spacing is less than five times the stud diameter. Key words: headed stud, shear capacity, minimum stud spacing, prying force.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are the most common mesenchymal tumors of the digestive tract (1%). These tumors express the CD 117 in 95% of cases. The stomach is the preferential localization (70%). Diagnosis is difficult and sometimes late. Progress of imaging has greatly improved the management and the prognosis. Computed tomography (CT) is the gold standard for diagnosis, staging, and treatment follow-up. The increasing recognition of GIST’s histopathology and the prolonged survival revealed some suggestive imaging aspects. Key words: gastro-intestinal stromal tumors; computed tomography; diagnosis

This article aims at describing the obseroance of wasiat wajibah (compulsory bequeathment) in the Islamic court of Banten, analyzing the provision of the substitute heir and adopted children in the Compilation of  Islamic Law (KHI). In addition, the ideal laws to manage the innheritance rules in Indonesia. This article is library research by using doctrinal approach and using case study and survey methods. The data was, then, analyzed by using analytical descriptive and analytical correlative methods. The result showed that the observance of wasiat wajibah in the Islamic court of  Banten employed by judges is by using the Mawali Hazairin’s Doctrine. The criteria of the adoption of substitute heir and adopted children in the KHI is the attempts of Ulama and many judgees junst in giving legal justice and certainty to the society.   Key Words: Islamic Inheritance Law, Compilation of Islamic Law, Islamic court of  Banten

Five phosphorus rates (0, 5, 10, 20 and 30 kg P/ha) were tested with four rice genotypes in Boro (BRRI dhan36, BRRI dhan45, EH1 and EH2) and T. Aman (BRRI dhan30, BRRI dhan49, EH1 and EH2) season. Phosphorus rates did not influence grain yield irrespective of varieties in T. Aman season while in Boro season P response was observed among the P rates. Application of P @ 10 kg/ha significantly increased the grain yield. But when P was applied @ 20 and 30 kg P/ha, the grain yield difference was not significant. The optimum and economic rate of P for T. Aman was 20 kg P/ha but in Boro rice the optimum and economic doses of P were 22 and 30 kg/ha, respectively. Hybrid entries (EH1 and EH2) used P more efficiently than inbred varieties. A negative P balance was observed up to 10 kg P/ha. Key words: Response; Phosphorus fertilizer; Inbred; Hybrid rice DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/dujbs.v19i2.8962 DUJBS 2010; 19(2): 181-187
