A vulnerable resource

Crime creates business uncertainties that can disturb, if not destroy, the already vulnerable business environment. Microfirms, due to their smallness, are more susceptible to the effects of crime as they lack the resources to invest in protection and endure its effects. Many empirical investigations on the subject matter have not yet produced a definite conclusion, thus, this study is imperative.

Fresh water is a resource that is limited and vulnerable while essential for our daily life. It is necessary to have different stakeholders participating in water management, in which water users community plays an important role. However, it can be difficult to recruit local community to participate if their motivations are not known.

Systematic in vitro loss-of-function screens provide valuable resources that can facilitate the discovery of drugs targeting cancer vulnerabilities. Results: We develop a deep learning-based method to predict tumor-specific vulnerabilities in patient samples by leveraging a wealth of in vitro screening data. Acquired dependencies of tumors are inferred in cases in which one allele is disrupted by inactivating mutations or in association with oncogenic mutations.

The experiment was conducted during 2015-2016 at Division of Plant Genetic Resources, Indian Institute of Horticultural Research (IIHR), Hessarghatta, Bengaluru. Genotypic variability, heritability and genetic advance for yield and yield contributing traits were studied on 13 Holostemma ada-kodien accessions. Data were recorded on plant height (m), leaf length (cm), leaf width (cm), petiole length (cm), pedicel length (cm), fruit length (cm), fruit diameter (cm), thickness of pericarp (cm), thickness of mesocarp (cm), number of fruits per plant, fruit yield (kg).

The research results show that the vulnerability index of the Dong Nai River basin in the province of Lam Dong is also spatially differentiated and in general, the value of the vulnerability index is at a moderate level (VI = 0.23). It is observed that the Vulnerability Index for the Dong Nai - Lam Dong River basin comes mainly from management challenges, followed by stresses due to resource use, pressure from development. Assessing the vulnerability of basin water resources is the basis for scientists to devise appropriate management solutions towards sustainable development.

In recent years, Lam Dong's water resources have not only changed in terms of quality and quantity of water, but this has affected the economic, social and living environment in the region. Based on UNEP guidelines, the vulnerability of water resources in the study area has been explored by isolating important issues related to the different functions of the water resource systems in a storage facility. area. At present, the vulnerability index for the river basin in Lam Dong (VI) reaches 0.29 in the river basin with a vulnerability index for medium water resources.

India is blessed with excellent natural resources like, soil, water and climatic conditions. Climate change is a significant variation in weather patterns occurring over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. Climate change impacts on agriculture are being witnessed all over the world, but countries like India are more vulnerable in view of the huge population dependence on agriculture, excessive pressure on natural resources and poor coping mechanisms.
