Effect of Seed Size and Cutting Methods on the Yield and Profitability of Potato
Authors: Hossain MS , Zakaria M , Hossain MM , Rashid MH 
Published: January 2012

An experiment was conducted at the research field of Tuber Crop Research Centre (TCRC) of Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute, Gazipur during the winter of 2006-2007 to determine the effects of cutting methods and seed size on the yield and profitability in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.). It was observed that the foliage coverage, plant height, stems/hill, number and weight of tubers/plant varied significantly due to variation of tuber size. The highest germination index (18.13) was found when large size whole tuber was used followed by small size whole tuber and medium size whole tuber. Vigorous plants, maximum plant height and the number of stems/ hill at 60 DAP were also produced when the crop was raised from large size whole tubers. The maximum leaf area of 3909 cm2 was found in medium size –half proximal treatment. The highest number (10.23) and weight of tubers/ hill (0.40 kg) were observed in T6 large size-whole tuber treatment. The highest gross yield of tubers (25.10 t/ha) was also produced when large whole tubers were used. However, small tuber size and half cut distal would be economically profitable for enhancing growth and yield of potato.

Published: January 2012

For selection of aromatic rice lines, twenty six (26) rice genotypes were evaluated for agronomic characteristics and aroma detection through sensory test and genotypic analysis using SSR markers. Grain quality and yield attributes were analyzed after harvesting the grain. Aroma was detected by 1.7% KOH as a sensory test. Based on sensory test, six genotypes were detected for having strong aroma; 7 for moderate aroma; 10 for slight aroma and 3 for no aroma. Aroma had significant and positive association with grain length-width ratio; significant and negative association with grain width, significant and negative association with gelatinization temperature, and no significant association with grain length. Three SSR primers viz; RM223, RM515 and RM342 were used for identifying fgr gene locus in 26 rice genotypes. The primer RM223 identified the fgr locus as homozygous condition for 6 as strong aromatic, 7 moderate aromatic, 10 slight aromatic and the rest 3 as non aromatic. The primer RM515 detected 4 as strong aromatic, 6 as moderate aromatic, and 16 as slight to non aromatic. The primer RM342 detected 3 as strong aromatic and four as moderate aromatic, 19 as slight to non aromatic. Compared among the three markers, RM223 detected the highest number of fgr locus in aromatic rice genotypes. Among the three primers, RM223 responded best in all the 26 rice genotypes, because RM223 primer could be able to identify aromatic and nonaromatic genes having higher yield with good agronomic performance and other grain quality traits. These elite lines could be readily used in breeding programme for release aromatic rice variety with considerable yield.

Functional response of <i>Phytoseiulus persimilis</i> Athias-Henriot to Tetranychus urticae Koch: effects of prey life stages and temperature
Authors: Hoque Md Fazlul , Islam Md Wahedul , Khalequzzaman M 
Published: January 2012

This paper examines the effect of density and temperature on the functional response of adult female Phytoseiulus persimilis to different life stages of the spider mite, Tetranychus urticae. The functional response was determined using functional response assay technique with plant leaf discs an arena. We conducted a logistic regression of the proportion of prey consumed as a function of initial prey density to identify functional response types, and used nonlinear least-squares regression and the random predator equation to estimate attack rates and handling times. In all the cases number of adult male prey attacked by female predator were greater than adult female prey. P. persimilis consumed more eggs and larvae than other stages of prey. Female predator consumed adult prey at each temperature which generally increased with prey density initially but leveled off at higher prey densities. The highest number of eggs, larvae and nymphs consumed by predator in 24 hours was 16.3 ± 0.42, 9.9 ± 0.59 and 9.5 ± 0.40 respectively whereas the highest number of eggs, larvae and nymphs consumed by a single female in 48 hours was 19.5 ± 1.15, 18.6 ± 0.62 and 13.3 ± 0.65 respectively. Handling time generally decreased with temperature whereas successful attack rate increased with temperature except at 30º C. Judging by a/Th values, P. persimilis was most efficient against T. urticae at 30-35ºC, about half as efficient at 25 ºC and performed poorly at 20º C. Again, from a/Th values, P. persimilis was most efficient against T. urticae in egg stage, about half as efficient at larva and nymph stages and performed poorly at adult stage. Key words: Phytoseiulus persimilis; Tetranychus urticae; functional response; predation; temperature.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/ujzru.v29i1.9458 UJZRU 2010; 29(1): 1-8
Effect of salinity on the survival and growth of mud crabling, <i>Scylla serrata</i>
Authors: Mia MY , Shah MMR 
Published: January 2012

An experiment was conducted for a period of eight weeks under laboratory conditions to determine the effect of different salinity levels on the survival and growth of crablings of mud crab, Scylla serrata. The different salinity levels tested were: 5 ppt, 10 ppt, 15 ppt, 20 ppt and 25 ppt. The differences in growth increment in terms of body weight (BW) were significant (p<0.05) among different salinity treatments. The specific growth rate (SGR%/day) values of 2.67, 2.85, 4.07, 4.39 and 4.46 at 5 ppt, 10 ppt, 15 ppt, 20 ppt and 25 ppt, respectively were found significant (p<0.05). The survival rates of crablings were found to be the highest (47.67%) at 25 ppt and lowest (10%) at 5 ppt (p<0.05). The results indicated that increase of salinity from 5 to 25 ppt had significant effect on the survival and growth of mud crablings.

Published: January 2012

A field survey of butterflies was carried out in different areas of deciduous forests at Kaliakyar, Gazipur, during January-December, 2008. Seven species of satyrid butterflies were collected and two species, Melanitis leda and Mycalesis mineus were found to exhibit dry and wet season polymorphism. The dry season forms (DSFs) and wet season forms (WSFs) of the both species were distinguished by their upperside and underside wing patterns. The DSFs occurred only in the drier period (November to February) when day length was shorter than 12 hrs. at lower temperatures (24.1-20.6°C). Both the species of butterflies of the wetter period (March - October) were predominant of the WSF when day length was longer than 12 hrs. at higher temperatures (26.8-27.6°C). The fluctuations in the number of seasonal forms of M. leda and M. mineus were higher in DSF than those of WSF. The transition of DSF to WSF and WSF to DSF of M. leda was found to occur around the end of April and the early of September, respectively. But the turnover of DSF to WSF occurred around the early March and the turnover of WSF to DSF in October in M. mineus.

Toxicity of dishwashing liquids against the American cockroach, <i>Periplaneta americana</i> L. (Dictyoptera: Blattidae)
Authors: Reza AM Saleh , Din Md MI , Parween Selina 
Published: January 2012

Dishwashing liquids viz. Vim and Trix at concentrations of 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0% were toxic against the adult American cockroach, Periplaneta americana L. after 24-h of exposure. Knockdown effect of the detergents was found to be 70-78% by contact with both the detergents. Whereas, by dipping 100% of the cockroaches were knocked down and ultimately died at 24-h exposure. The LC50 values were calculated for contact toxicity were 1.490% for Vim and 0.883% for Trix. The results revealed that Trix is more toxic than Vim against the adult P. americana.

Ulysse de Joyce : l'imprésentable
Authors: Peterson Michel 
Published: January 2012

Joyce's Ulysses.
"Ulysses" is a nodal work that confronts the reader with new concepts of space and time and incites him to examine the perpetual off-centering of fields of meaning in both modern and post-modern societies. The use of as many different types of narrative as possible, the constant displacement of enunciative postures and Bloom's transgressive subjectivity join together to give the work a resolutely anti-romantic and ironic tone. The poetics of self-reflexivity are founded on a parodic vision of society. Modernism or postmodernism ? "Ulysses" raises language to heights that provoke the devaluation of accepted codes.
À l'en-tête d'Holopherne
Authors: Hollier Denis 
Published: January 2012

This essay argues that, in Manhood, the Judith Salome diptych has a
deeper and more structuring effect than Cranach's
Lucrèce and Judith, even though Le iris himself used the latter in order to frame his autobiographical volume.
The Judith I Salome' diptych is composed by the very two figures whose merging Panofsky (he could have mentioned the Judith II (« Salome ») that Klimmt painted in 1911) singled out as one of the most flagrant symptoms of modern ignorance of iconology : for the sexuali^ation of Judith entailed by this coupling is an iconographie blasphemy ; no humanist would have dared equate her patriotic virtue with Salomé' s capricious perversity.
But, in Leiris's logic, Holophernes' s beheading is a sufficient ground for retroactively motivating, even if fantasmatically , her sexualization (his Judith is a praying-mantis figure who transforms her lover into an Acephalus) . The present essay, however, argues that, inspite of Leiris's insistence, his identifying with the beheaded Holophernes (or Saint John) is not primarily rooted in sexual fantasies, but in a deeper articulation between the self-portrait as a genre (literary as well as pictorial) and exemplary figures of beheading.
La lettre à Louise
Authors: Marmande Francis 
Published: January 2012

On his return from the Dakar- Djibouti expedition, Michel Leiris
gave a scientific presentation of the secret language of the Dogons Some
time later, he made an analysis of the concept of possession amongst the Gondar of Ethiopia.
Language — the secret — identity and masks — in a sense everything is here — plus that excessive subjectivity which surprises ethnologists. Leiris, who sent his impressions of Africa to his wife Louise, dedicates the entire œuvre « like a long letter to his customary, tender confidante, his pale-eyed companion » without ever realising that it is her name and none other that he writes as he veers obsessively between the names of the Gondar and the Dogans : her name is Louise Godon.
Inscriptions et écriture, Leiris, Éluard, Char
Authors: Mathieu Jean-Claude 
Published: January 2012

Such 'inscriptions' as engravings, tracks, graffiti and epitaphs
ring within or around a text, may at first glance appear to represent a different or reverse layer when considered in relation to the linear discourse they disrupt. Such inscriptions' however, can be readily accommodated within the conventions of surrealism and amongst those other stylistic practices particular to the movement. In considering the relationship between inscription and écriture in the surrealist works of Leiris, Eluard and Char, it becomes clear that for Leiris the relationship is between the sign that strikes like lightning, inscribed in capitals on the human subject, and the sinuous progression of autobiographical discourse For Eluard, the myth of pure 'parole' , freed from the bonds of the book, delays his emergence into the visible universe of signs and 'inscriptions'. For Char, the moribund fixity of the inscription must be reintegrated little by little into the movement of becoming. Thus can be seen the shuttling back and forth of surrealist writing between revelation as vouchsafed by the inscribed sign become sacred and liberation into the unending, free flux of 'parole' .
Les Carnets de la drôle de guerre de Jean-Paul Sartre : effets d'écriture, effets de lecture

As a soldier during the winter of 1939-40, Sartre kept a diary. An incomplete version of this diary was found and published, after Sartre's death, in
MICHEL CONTAT ET JACQUES DEGUY :
LES CARNETS DE LA DRÔLE DE GUERRE DE JEAN-PAUL SARTRE, EFFETS D'ÉCRITURE, EFFETS DE LECTURE
The place these writings occupy in Sartre' s œuvre is examined from several points of view : chronological importance, textual interest, real events as opposed to the fictional diary of La Nausée, their place within Sartre's imaginative universe and their relation to the War Diary genre. The fate of these Carnets has turned out to be paradoxical : conceived of as an impossible book, they were read by a few friends and then forgotten.
Galilée et le sublime
Authors: Hallyn Fernand 
Published: January 2012

Galileo and the Sublime.
The article attempts to describe Galileo's rhetoric in his Starry Messenger (1610) in terms of the sublime, which appears in a threefold register: in the style of exposition of the discoveries; in the characterisation of the science as noblest of all the arts; and in the elevation of the Earth among the celestial bodies.
Les théâtres et la cognition
Authors: Mahieu Raymond 
Published: January 2012

Cognition theatre.
Representing convincingly the scientist, in his education or practise, seems to be difficult for the XlXth century novel. To understand this difficulty we will assume that the novel writer of last century, considering himself as producing science, can hardly conceive the activity of cognition which in a way would compete with himself; therefore the scientist figure is mediatised or deceptive.
Savoir scientifique et défaut de jugement dans Bouvard et Pécuchet
Authors: Granger Gilles G. 
Published: January 2012

Scientific knowledge and lack of judgment in « Bouvard et Pécuchet ».
The story of scientific knowledge failures — failures due to a lack of judgment — takes place on three stages: among the inhabitants of Chavignolles, stage of human stupidity; among the half-real world of the two fellows; and then, as in a glimpse, in the author mind. We analyse more specifically the mentality features, the meaning of their failure and the evolution towards the final resolution which we wry to interpretate as Flaubert's expression of ambiguity.

Bildung and « linguistic sense »: Wilhem von Humboldt.
The link between literature and philosophy in German idealism works itself out through and in language and
through a renewal of the understanding of language exemplified in Humboldfs "Einleitung zur Kawi-werk", where language is theorised as the means for and locus of the Kantian synthesis, while the temporal dimension of language dynamises the Kantian system.
Mrs Dalloway ou le discours comme mobile
Authors: Huglo Marie-Pascale , Méchoulan Éric 
Published: January 2012

Mrs Dalloway : discourse's motive power.
Figures of movement are the hinges in "Mrs. Dalloway" between the different spatial and temporal modalities of utterance, thus signalling the fundamental mobility of discourses while demonstrating its nature as event grounded in contingency. At the same time, these figures connect to the characterisation of life as perpetual mobility, while discourse's task is to seize the artirculation where differences originate or merge.
Signer l'ellipse ou le cercle et son double
Authors: Issacharoff Michael 
Published: January 2012

Signing the ellipse: the circle and its double.
Different narrative techniques — repetitivity, circularity, instability of the referential processes — allow a story to hinder the hermeneutic function and to defer meaning indefinitely. Mérimée' s "Venus of Ille", usually read either as a fantastic novel or as a precursor of the detective novel, is exemplary of this genre of narration — the « récit-ellipse » : the uncertainty concerning its genre reflects its being a story programming uncertainty.
Le hasard vaincu : Manuscrit trouvé dans une poche
Authors: Rojtman Betty 
Published: January 2012

Chance conquered manuscript found in a pocket.
Framing an object by lifting it out of its context displaces it into another semiotic order. A narrative framework also displaces its material, and the order it imposes on the chance events of life creates aesthetic meaning. Cortzar's Manuscript tells the
story of the obsession to structure the anarchy of existence, thus showing how fiction is made out of life, while the title signals the element of chance involved in readership itself.
Que brise Le livre brisé de Serge Doubrovsky ?

Doubrovsky's non-critical work has always admitted to its « autofictional » character.
This neologism also serves to reflect upon the nature of autobiography. His fifth novel, sundered by the death of his wife, may well have broken, among other things, the limits of that distinction, or pushed reflexion fu rther.
L'écriture hypertextuelle : pratique et théorie. À partir d'une recherche sur Rigodon de Céline
Authors: Laufer Roger 
Published: January 2012

Hypertext writing : practice into theory. From an experiment on Celine's Rigodon.
The making of a sizable hypertext on Celine's Rigodon
exemplifies the ressources and ensuing constraints of the medium. Issues, particularly controversial ones such as the author's racism, must be
ported but not resolved, enabling the reader to form his/her own judgement. Granular writing exacts clarity and explicitness. It may offer scholars in the humanities a middle-way between belles-lettres and expert systems.
Paratextes et journal non intime : le Journal d'une époque de Denis de Rougemont
Authors: Ackermann Bruno 
Published: January 2012

Paratextsand the unintimate diary : Denis de Rougemont's "Journal d'une époque".
The diary as a genre keeps the distinctive characteristics of regular entries ans focus on the writer. That the genre does not exist in a pure form induces the study of Rougemont's "Journal", a reedition of other diaries whose quasi-oxymoronic titles combine the generic (Journal) with the thematic (d'Allemagne, etc). Other paratextuel elements show the conscious creation of a hybrid to inscribe the interaction between the individual and the collective, in harmony with Rougemont's personalism.

Looking in the prison of her skin. notes on a utobiography in "Violette Leduc"
The impossibility of autobiography is the genre's problematic — constantly confronted with its productivity. The issue is that of the opposition between a life and a text: thus the study of an author who has systematically been read as essentially autobiographical in inspiration, at the junction between text an « off-text » : for signature, manuscript, autocitation tell the (literary) biography.

On Genets much-awaited biography: of truth in literature.
Not the first biography since Genet's death, Edmund White's is the most interesting begging the comparison with Sartre's. It first differs by its scope slightfy marred by tual errors whose impact, however, is to distort the relationship between an artist's life and work, wich Sartre dialecticised — if excessively. White's project reconstructs the man from the work, an misses the work.
