Multivariate analysis techniques reveal significant morphogenetic variability in pumpkin landraces in Kenya
(Shamokal Publications, 2018-07-30)
Documented information on naturalized pumpkin landraces in Kenya to identify useful variability is insufficient. The present study assessed variability using quantitative characters of 155 accessions, with 70 and 85 from ...
Coffea arabica cultivar Ruiru 11 sibs exhibit significant variation in plant regeneration through direct somatic embryogenesis.
(ISDS LLC, Japan, 2018)
This experiment evaluated the response of 11 selected recalcitrant coffee ‘Ruiru 11’ sibs to plantlet regeneration
through direct somatic embryogenesis. Third leaf pair explants from field-grown mother plants were ...

(2018)
Pumpkin is an emerging important fruit-vegetable, although its potential remains unexploited in Kenya. This study aimed at enhancing conservation, preservation and production of naturalized pumpkins through characterisation ...
On The Norm of an Elementary Operator of Finite Length in A C*Algebra”
(2018-08)
Properties of elementary operators have been studied over the past years especially the norm aspect. Various results have been obtained on elementary operators of different lengths using different approaches. In this paper, ...
On the Norm of Basic Elementary Operator in a Tensor Product
(2018-01)
In this paper, we determine the norm of an elementary operator in a tensor product. More
precisely, we investigate the bounds of the norm of a basic elementary operator in a tensor product. We
employ the techniques of ...
