    Let G (V, E) be a simple graph of order p and size q. Let Ο†: V (G) Z5 – {0} be a function. For each edge set E (G) define the labeling *:E (G)Z4 by *(uv)= (mod 4) where (u)(v). The function  is called Quotient-4 cordial labeling of G if |vΟ†(i) – vΟ†(j)| ≀ 1, , j, ij where vΟ†(x) denote the number of vertices labeled with x and |eΟ†(k) – eΟ†(l)| ≀ 1, ,,, where eΟ†(y) denote the number of edges labeled with y. Here some caterpillar graphs such as star graph (Sn), Bistar graph (Bn,n), Pn [N] graph, Pn [No] graph, Pn [Ne] graph, Twig graph (Tm), (Pn   K1, r), S(Sn), S(Bn,n), S(Pn [N]), S(Pn [No]), S(Pn [Ne]), S(Tm) and S(Pn   K1, r) graph proved to be quotient-4 cordial graphs

    Removing Water Droplets In Medical Images Using Textured Spectral Analysis

    Some disease in human body is caused by accumulation of water molecules at particular place in an organ or entering of unwanted toxic foreign bodies. This may be in large or in negligible amounts. Many methods like CT, MRI can detect these abnormalities if present in appreciable amount. But if present in small amount, human vision on these scanned images cannot detect them. The visual appearance of moving water droplet is very complex. Each water droplet refracts and reflects both scene radiance and atmospheric illumination toward an observer. Water droplets are randomly distributed in space and move at high velocities. Thus, water droplets produce spatial and temporal intensity fluctuations in videos. Modelling, analysing and detecting these unwanted water molecules may benefit avoiding the negligence of presence of disease. In this paper, the proposed system that detect water molecules in the images of affected organ like lungs automatically .The crux idea is to exploit textural properties of droplets or fluid. To perpetrate this idea, we are aiming to model these droplets by laws of physical science and reveal this through block processing of image pixels. For partially occluded image portions, information of the image may be used to be applied in transform like DCT, blending functions and retrieve it. For fully occluded image, image completion techniques can be used. By using this we can detect the droplets even if they are in micron size

    A majority of individuals infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) have inadequate access to antiretroviral therapy and ultimately develop debilitating oral infections that often correlate with disease progression. Due to the impracticalities of conducting host-microbe systems-based studies in HIV infected patients, we have evaluated the potential of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) infected rhesus macaques to serve as a non-human primate model for oral manifestations of HIV disease. We present the first description of the rhesus macaque oral microbiota and show that a mixture of human commensal bacteria and "macaque versions" of human commensals colonize the tongue dorsum and dental plaque. Our findings indicate that SIV infection results in chronic activation of antiviral and inflammatory responses in the tongue mucosa that may collectively lead to repression of epithelial development and impact the microbiome. In addition, we show that dysbiosis of the lingual microbiome in SIV infection is characterized by outgrowth of Gemella morbillorum that may result from impaired macrophage function. Finally, we provide evidence that the increased capacity of opportunistic pathogens (e.g. E. coli) to colonize the microbiome is associated with reduced production of antimicrobial peptides

    Draft genome sequence and genetic transformation of the oleaginous alga Nannochloropis gaditana

    The potential use of algae in biofuels applications is receiving significant attention. However, none of the current algal model species are competitive production strains. Here we present a draft genome sequence and a genetic transformation method for the marine microalga Nannochloropsis gaditana CCMP526. We show that N. gaditana has highly favourable lipid yields, and is a promising production organism. The genome assembly includes nuclear (~29 Mb) and organellar genomes, and contains 9,052 gene models. We define the genes required for glycerolipid biogenesis and detail the differential regulation of genes during nitrogen-limited lipid biosynthesis. Phylogenomic analysis identifies genetic attributes of this organism, including unique stramenopile photosynthesis genes and gene expansions that may explain the distinguishing photoautotrophic phenotypes observed. The availability of a genome sequence and transformation methods will facilitate investigations into N. gaditana lipid biosynthesis and permit genetic engineering strategies to further improve this naturally productive alga
