This work explores the mathematical technique known as the Hirota bilinear transformation to investigate different wave behaviors of the nonlinear Rosenau equation, which is fundamental in the study of wave occurrences in a variety of physical systems such as fluid dynamics, plasma physics, and materials science, where nonlinear dynamics and dispersion offer significant functions. This equation was suggested to describe the dynamic behaviour of dense discrete systems. We use Mathematica to investigate these wave patterns and obtained variety of wave behaviors, such as M-shaped waves, mixed waves, multiple wave forms, periodic lumps, periodic cross kinks, bright and dark breathers, and kinks and anti-kinks.

An experiment was conducted to determine the effects of spacing on seed tuber yield and related traits of potato cultivars at Adet Agricultural Research Center in northwestern Ethiopia during the 2023 cropping season. The treatments consisted of two potato varieties (Belete and Gera) propagated by shoot tip cuttings at four inter-row spacings (30, 40, 50, and 60 cm) and intra-row spacing (15, 20, 25, and 30 cm).

To address this issue in Iraq's capital, Baghdad, a total of 12526 individuals (6263 couples) attending three main Premarital Screening centers were enrolled. Individuals were labeled as β-hemoglobin disorders based on full blood counts and high-performance liquid chromatography.

Although drug therapy is successful, patients with advanced liver cancer frequently develop resistance because of the significant phenotypic and genetic heterogeneity of these cells. The overexpression of drug efflux transporters, downstream adaptive responses, malfunctioning DNA damage repair, epigenetic modification, the tumor microenvironment, and the extracellular matrix can all be linked to drug resistance.

PAL spectroscopy is employed to study the free volume of polymers. The use of lignocellulosic materials as reinforcement in polymeric composites has gained attention due to their low cost, availability, and eco-friendliness.

Background And Objectives: High-grade glioma (HGG) is the most common primary brain tumor in adults. The overall median survival is between 14 and 16 months. Fluorescence-guided surgery by detection of protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) fluorescence has been shown to improve the extent of resection, translating to improved progression-free survival.

However, the unavailability of adaptable varieties and lack of information on production and post-harvest handling practices have limited its production and utilization in eastern Ethiopia. The research was conducted to identify the proper harvesting stage of OFSP varieties for optimum yield and nutritional compositions at Rare and Babile research stations of Haramaya University during the main rainy season of 2022.

However, the patterns of genetic diversity and population structure remain poorly characterized, making germplasm conservation and breeding efforts difficult to succeed. Thus, this study is aimed to evaluate the genetic diversity and population structure of 49 barley accessions collected from different geographic origins in Ethiopia.

The study examines the using of Aboodh residual power series method and the Aboodh transform iteration method (ATIM) to analyze modified Korteweg-de Vries equation (mKdV) beside coupled Burger's equations in the framework of the Caputo operator. These sets of equations represent the non-linear wave description for various physical systems. Through APM and ATIM, the solution for the coupled Burger's equations and the mKdV equation get accurate dynamics information that will reveal the nature of their interactions.
