Genetic Gain in Wheat Grain Yield and Nitrogen Use Efficiency at Different Nitrogen Levels in an Irrigated Hot Environment by Izzat Sidahmed Ali Tahir, Elfadil Mohamed Elyayeb Elbashier, Mohamed Ahmed Salih Ibrahim, Abu Sefyan Ibrahim Saad, Osman Suliman Abdalla

“…The performance and genetic gain in grain yield and nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) of a historical set of 12 bread wheat cultivars released for a heat-stressed environment were investigated at four N levels (0 (N0), 43 (N43), 86 (N86), and 129 (N129) kg/ha) for two seasons. Averaged across seasons, increasing N level from N0 to N43, N86, and N129 resulted in yield increases ranging from 4−45%, 13–69%, and 34–87% at N43, N86, and N129, respectively. …”

Monitoring and assessment of a eutrophicated coastal lake using multivariate approaches by U.G. Abhjna

“…Cluster analysis showed four clusters based on the similarity of water quality characteristics among sampling stations during three different seasons (pre-monsoon, monsoon and post-monsoon). Multidimensional scaling in conjunction with cluster analysis identified four distinct groups of sites with varied water quality conditions such as upstream, transitional and downstream conditions  in Veli-Akkulam Lake and a reference condition at Vellayani Lake. …”
