This study aims to examine whether the fundamental frequency (F0) varies depending on languages or distinguishes between L1 (first language) and L2 (second language) speech and whether the type of materials which vary in control of consonant voicing affects the use of F0-especially, mean F0. For this purpose, we compared productions of two languages produced by Korean L2 learners of English to those of Korean-English bilingual speakers. Twelve Korean L2 speakers of English and twelve Korean-English bilingual speakers participated in this study. The subjects read aloud 22 declarative sentences-balanced and unbalanced-once in English and once in Korean. Mean F0 of Korean was higher than that of English for both speaker groups, and the difference in the value of mean F0 between the Korean and English sentences was different depending on the type of materials that the participants read. With regard to F0 range, the L2 speakers had a larger F0 range in English than in Korean; however, the effect of language on F0 range was not statistically significant for the bilingual speakers. These results indicate that language-specific properties may affect the use of F0, in particular, mean F0.

In this paper, we introduce the notion of symmetric bi-generalized derivation of lattice implication algebra L and investigated some related properties. Also, we prove that a map $F:L{\times}L{\rightarrow}L$ is a symmetric bi-generalized derivation associated with symmetric bi-derivation D on L if and only if F is a symmetric map and it satisfies $F(x{\rightarrow}y,z)=x{\rightarrow}F(y,z)$ for all $x,y,z{\in}L$.

Antifungal activity reaction to Aloe peel and juice extracted by several solvents and concentrations against three plant pathogenic fungi as collectrichum gloeosporioides, Fusarium oxysporum, and F. solani were investigated. The Antifungal activity of Aloe extracts varied with the kinds of solvents. In case of C. gloesporioides and F. solani, it's the highest in water, second in methanol, and third in ethanol. It showed that Antifungal activity of Aloe peel and juice extracts based on concentration was much more excellent in juice extracts than peel extracts against C. gloeosporioides, F. solani. Effect of Antifungal against F. oxysporum by juice extracts did not appear at a concentration of $100{\mu}l/L$ and then shows 9.5% of inhibition rate at $100,000{\mu}l/L$ while against C. gloeosporioides it starts to react at $100{\mu}l/L$ and then reaches at 29.3% of the highest inhibition rate at a concentration of $100,000{\mu}l/L$ out of three plant pathogenic fungi. The effect of control efficacy against Fusarium wilt caused by F. oxysporum by juice extracts of foliar spray tends to increase and the more the concentration of juice extracts increases, the higher the effect of control efficacy against Fusarium wilt disease. Foliar spray at a concentration of 10g/L has a 62% of control efficacy compared with control treatment, which foliar spray of Aloe juice extracts can be the more effective method in order to prevent Fusarium wilt disease caused by F. oxysporum.

In this paper we investigate the Hyers-Ulam stability of the s-variable additive and l-variable quadratic functional equations of the form $$f\(\sum\limits_{i=1}^{s}x_i\)+\sum\limits_{j=1}^{s}f\(-sx_j+\sum\limits_{i=1,i{\neq}j}^{s}x_i\)=0$$ and $$f\(\sum\limits_{i=1}^{l}x_i\)+\sum\limits_{j=1}^{l}f\(-lx_j+\sum\limits_{i=1,i{\neq}j}^{l}x_i\)=(l+1)$$$\sum\limits_{i=1,i{\neq}j}^{l}f(x_i-x_j)+(l+1)\sum\limits_{i=1}^{l}f(x_i)$ (s, l ∈ N, s, l ≥ 3) in quasi-Banach spaces.

The objectives of this study were to determine optimal length of off-time between irrigation cycles to improve irrigation efficiency using a frequency domain reflectometry (FDR) sensor-automated irrigation (FAI) system for tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) cultivation aimed at minimizing effluent from coir substrate hydroponics. For treatments, the 5-minute off-time length between 3-minute run-times (defined as 3R5F), 10-minute off-time length between 3-minute run-times (defined as 3R10F), or 15-minute off-time length between 5-minute run-times (defined as 5R15F) were set. During the 3-minute or 5-minute run-time, a 60mL or 80mL of nutrient solution was irrigated to each plant, respectively. Until 62 days after transplant (DAT) during the autumn to winter cultivation, daily irrigation volume was in the order of 3R5F (858mL) > 5R15F (409mL) > 3R10F (306mL) treatment, and daily drainage ratio was in the order of 3R5F (44%) > 5R15F (23%) > 3R10F (14%). Between 63 and 102 DAT, daily irrigated volume was in the order of 5R15F (888mL) > 3R5F (695mL) > 3R10F (524mL) with the highest drainage ratio, 19% (${\pm}2.6$), at the 5R15F treatment. During the spring to summer cultivation, daily irrigation volume and drainage ratio per plant was higher in the 3R5F treatment than that of the 3R10F treatment. For both cultivations, a higher water use efficiency (WUE) was observed under the 3R10F treatment. Integrated all the data suggest that the optimal off-time length is 10 minutes.

Eight strains of Lactobacilli(a, b, b', c, d, e, f and g) were isolated from seven Korean liquid-yogurts(A, B, C, D, E, F and G), and identification and tolerance-test to digestive fluids were carried out. Isolate a from yogurt A and isolate a from yogurt E were identified as L. casei, isolate b from yogurt B as L. acidophilus, isolate d from yogurt D as L. bulgaricus, isolate f from yogurt F as L. helveticus, and isolate b' from yogurt B, isolate c from yogurt C and isolate g from yogurt G as L. jugurti, respectively. Isolate f(L. helveticus) and c(L. jugurti) showed high tolerance to artificial gastric juice but didn't to bile acid. Isolate b(L. acidophilus), a(L. casei), and e(L. casei) showed high tolerance to both artificial gastric juice and bile acid, but isolate d(L. bulgaricus), b'(L. jurgurti) and g(L. jugurti) did not.

Conjugate heat transfer by steady laminar natural convection from a conducting tube with two vertical axial fins has been studied by a finite difference numerical procedure under basic conditions; $Ra=10_6$, Pr = 5 and $L_F=0.15$. The maximum local tube Nusselt number appears at ${\theta}=140^{\circ}$ for $L_F=0.06$, at ${\theta}=130^{\circ}$ for $L_F=0.30$ and at ${\theta}=120^{\circ}$ for $L_F=0.30$, $L_F=0.06$, respectively. The maximum mean Nusselt number shows at $L_F=0.18$ for the downward fin and at $L_F=0.12$ for the upward fin. Therefore the optimized fin length is $L_F{\approx}0.15$ under these conditions. At $L_F=0.15$, the mean Nusselt number by increasing Rayleigh number is remarkably increased for downward fin and then is slowly increased except for downward fin, it by increasing Prandtl number is apparently increased at $Pr{\leq}2$, and slightly increased at Pr>2.

Speech production studies have suggested that bilinguals who are L2-dominant are the most likely to suppress the influence of the first language (L1) on the second language (L2). The voice onset times (VOTs) and fundamental frequencies (f0s) of monolingual and bilingual speakers of English and Korean were examined to address the question whether cross language influences occur particularly in L2 predominant bilinguals and to compare their outcomes with those of L2 proficient bilinguals and monolinguals. A total of 28 speakers participated in this experiment and they produced English and Korean stops in the carrier sentence. In English, for voiceless aspirated and unaspirated stops, L2 predominant bilingual speakers produced VOTs that were significantly shorter than those of monolingual English speakers. The outcome was analogous in Korean speech. For aspirated and lax stops, they produced shorter Korean VOTs than monolingual speakers. The results of f0s were slightly different from those of VOTs. In English, L2 predominant bilinguals produced f0s that were not significantly different from those of monolingual English speakers. In Korean, however, they produced f0s that were significantly different from those of monolingual Korean speakers. Taken VOT and f0 into consideration together, the overall results suggest that, although they tend to show a corresponding pattern of monolinguals, L2 predominant bilinguals had cross language phonetic influences between L1 and L2, similar to L2 proficient bilinguals. Between the two acoustic cues, f0 seemed to be a more reliable cue than VOT to examine the influences.

It is well known that the warped product $L\;{\times}\;{_f}\;F$ of a line L and a Kaehler manifold F is an almost contact Riemannian manifold which is characterized by some tensor equations appeared in (1.7) and (1.8). In this paper we determine contact slant submanifolds tangent to the structure vector field of $L\;{\times}\;{_f}\;F$.

In this paper we determine submanifolds of L$\times$$_{f}$ F which are tangent to the structure vector field and satisfy certain conditions concerning with Ricci curvature and mean curvature.ure.
