DNA

DNA stands for Deoxyribonucleic acid. DNA contains the genetic instructions used in the development and functioning of all known living organisms. The DNA segments that carry this genetic information are called genes, but other DNA sequences have structural purposes, or are involved in regulating the use of this genetic information. DNA is organized into structures called chromosomes. These chromosomes are duplicated before cells divide, in a process called DNA replication. DNA is a long polymer made from repeating units called nucleotides. When a Base linked to a sugar is called a nucleoside. When a base linked to a sugar and to a phosphate group it is called as nucleotide.

Backbone of the DNA strand is made from alternating phosphate and sugar residues. The DNA double helix is stabilized by hydrogen bonds between the bases attached to the two strands. The four bases found in DNA are adenine, cytosine, guanine and thymine. Watson, Crick, and Wilkins jointly received the Nobel Prize for Discovering the structure of DNA molecule.

Genetically Engineered Cats & Dogs

Genetically engineered 'hypoallergenic' dogs may be available soon. So you should able to buy GM Pets on shops soon. Here is story about GM Cats. The major allergen in cats is the glycoprotein Fel d1 that is secreted by the sebaceous glands. This allergen is found in the fur, saliva, urine, mucous, salivary glands, and hair roots of the cat. This protein is produced by the Fel d1 gene. Scientists have developed a cat breed that produces a different version of the Fel d1 protein. According to Allerca, these cats no longer trigger the autoimmune system of people allergic to cats. The Allerca cats have been available since 2006. First scientists sought a method to delete or disable the gene. But in testing to see whether the gene had been effectively silenced, they made a fortuitous discovery: A very small number of cats carry a mutant gene that produces a modified protein, far less likely to induce allergies. At that point, the research shifted course. Allerca screened thousands of cats to identify a population with the modified gene and then set those cats to breeding. Because the mutant gene is dominant, the breeding cats could be mated with normal cats to produce hypoallergenic kittens.

By using proprietary genetic technology, ALLERCA manipulated naturally occurring genetic variations in cats, specifically targeting the gene Fel D1 that is responsible for the production of the common cat allergen. ALLERCA's technology detected genetic divergences consisting of minute variations in the code of the Fel D1 gene sequence.

Genetically engineered organism (GEO) or Genetically modified (GM) Animals are organisms whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering techniques.

How is it done?
'Transgenesis' uses a tiny needle to inject a piece of DNA into a fertilised egg. The egg then develops inside a surrogate mother. As her young grow up and are mated, future generations may contain this extra piece of DNA as part of their genetic makeup. The problem is that transgenesis can only deal with relatively large chunks of genes and is rather random - the new DNA doesn't always insert itself properly into the animal's own DNA.
'Gene targeting' uses GM embryonic stem (ES) cells - the starter cells that can develop into any cell type in the body. New genes can be inserted into these cells, or existing genes can be 'knocked out'. The ES cells are then injected into very early, normal embryos, where they may develop into egg or sperm cells, and the modified gene is transmitted to the next generation.
Many different animals have been used, including pigs, sheep, poultry, fish and insects. In 2001, ANDi, the first GM monkey was born.

Definitions for "What is Management"

Definition 1 - by the English statesman Sir Thomas More (1478-1535)

Organization and coordination of the activities of an enterprise in accordance with certain policies and in achievement of clearly defined objectives. Management is often included as a factor of production along with machines, materials, and money.

Definition 2
Directors and managers who have the power and responsibility to make decisions to manage an enterprise. As a discipline, management comprises of the interlocking functions of formulating corporate-policy and organizing, planning, controlling, and directing the firm's resources to achieve the policy's objectives.

Definition 3
The act, manner, or practice of managing; handling, supervision, or control: management of a crisis management of factory workers.

Definition 4
The person or persons who control or direct a business or other enterprise.

Definition 5
Skill in managing, executive ability.

What is Management?

Definition of management, among many examples you will find clues as to the real definition of management. This article simply takes an assortment of definitions and looks at what they say and what they imply about management.

Management is the organizational process that includes strategic planning, setting; objectives, managing resources, deploying the human and financial assets needed to achieve objectives, and measuring results. Management also includes recording and storing facts and information for later use or for others within the organization.

Management functions are not limited to managers and supervisors. Every member of the organization has some management and reporting functions as part of their Jobs.

Finger millet

Finger millet is an annual plant widely grown as a cereal in the arid areas of Africa and Asia. Finger millet is originally native to the Ethiopian Highlands.
Although statistics on individual millet species are confused, and are sometimes combined with sorghum, it is estimated that finger millet is grown on approximately 38,000 square kilometres.

Harvesting

Once the cereal plants have grown their seeds, they have completed their life cycle. The plants die and become brown and dry. As soon as the parent plants and their seed kernels are reasonably dry, harvest can begin.

Production of Cereals

The warm season cereals are grown in tropical lowlands year round and in temperate climates during the frost free season. Rice is commonly grown in flooded fields, though some strains are grown on dry land. Other warm climate cereals, such as sorghum, are adapted to arid conditions.

Introduction to Cereal

Cereals such as rice, wheat and maize are members of the grass family and they are particularly important to humans because of their role as staple food crops in many areas of the world. Cereals are also used to produce animal feed, oils, starch, flour, sugar, syrup, processed foods, malt, alcoholic beverages, gluten and renewable energy. Grasses are believed to have evolved over 60-70 million years ago. The sequencing of the rice genome provided the first reference genome for the grasses.
