Contrasting effects of necrotrophic and biotrophic plant pathogens on the aphid Aphis fabae by Al-Naemi, F.

“…These effects varied in linear relation to lesion or pustule density. However, whole-plant infection by either pathogen resulted in a smaller aphid population of smaller aphids than on uninfected plants, indicating a lowering of aphid carrying capacity with infection. …”

Asymmetric effects of oil price shocks on the demand for money in Algeria by Amirouche, Chelghoum

“…This paper investigates the symmetric and asymmetric effects of real oil prices on real money demand in Algeria over the period 1999:Q1–2020:Q1. Using a linear autoregressive distributed lag model (ARDL), and a nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag model (NARDL), we find no evidence of a long-term relationship among the variables. …”

Effect of Verbal Encouragement on Performance and Affective Responses in Male Sport Science Students during Sprint Modalities by Sahli, Faten

“…The assessed parameters comprised physical performance, rating of perceived exertion (RPE), and a feeling scale. Post hoc test analysis indicates a significant increase in physical performance during VETS and VESS conditions compared to the control condition due to a decrease in sprint in line 20 m (VETS: p < 0.001, d = 0.55; VESS: p = 0.016, d = 0.41), sprint 10*2 (VETS: p < 0.001, d = 0.64; VESS: p = 0.05, d = 0.36), and sprint L (VETS: p = 0.001, d = 1.19) times compared to the control condition. …”

Influence Of Surface Finish Parameters On Corrosion Of Zinc by Mourad, M. Y. [ممدوح درويش الديري]

“…Also, it was found that the increase in surface roughness has two connecting effects. The first leads to a decrease in corrosion potential due to a decrease in the cathodic surface area while the second leads to an increase in corrosion potential due to a decrease in the peak to valley distances of surface irregularities…”

Anaerobic and aerobic contributions to repeated supramaximal cycling exercises and their adaptation to high-intensity interval training in obese perimenopausal and postmenopausal w... by Jabbour, Georges

“…Results The results showed that, before training, the anaerobic contributions to repeated SCE did not differ between the perimenopausal and postmenopausal women for the first three repetitions. However, a higher decrease was reported for postmenopausal women at the fourth and fifth repetitions (P < 0.01, respectively). …”
