The intention to purchase designed fashion product of Vietnamese Designer: The mediator of customer relationship

Customer relationship management is an essential activity for business because customer relationship becomes a critical concept between business and consumer behavior. The need for fashion is emerging as an essential human need, not only in developed countries but also in developing countries like Vietnam. The purpose of this study is to define the constructs related to the fashion designer, which will impact the customer’s purchase intention under the mediator of the customer relationship. The primary research methodology is a quantitative research method with the survey via a questionnaire. Through a survey of 567 consumers, the research has shown that fashion designer reputation belief, social media communication, and fashion store environment are the antecedents of the customer relationship. Moreover, customer relationship is the mediator of the above factors and the intention to purchase designed fashion product. The study contributed to confirm the relationship theory in the fashion industry, especially in designed fashion products, which is not concerned by the researchers in the past. Furthermore, the study proposed some managerial implications related to the fashion designer reputation belief, social media communication, and fashion store environment for fashion designers.

Reproductive Effort and Success of Cycas micronesica K.D. Hill Are Affected by Habitat

Cycas micronesica K.D. Hill plants growing in two habitats differing in exposure to wind and salt spray were examined to see whether reproductive effort and success (as gauged by ovule and seed number, respectively) were influenced by abiotic factors as well as by plant size (as gauged by the height of megastrobili above ground). The data were collected via a split-plot design, with plant height nested in habitat type (exposed vs. protected site). Although mean plant height did not differ between the two sites, statistical analyses using a mixed model indicated that plants growing in the protected site had a greater reproductive effort and were more successful than plants growing in the unprotected site; i.e., plant height nested in habitat type had a significant effect. The numbers of ovules and seeds on the windward and leeward sides of each megastrobilus did not differ. Therefore, anemophily could not be confirmed. These data provide (1) the first quantitative demonstration that cycad reproductive effort and success are significantly influenced by abiotic variables such as habitat wind exposure, (2) the first investigation of any of the arborescent cycad species to address the effect of megastrobilus height on pollinator behavior, and (3) evidence that habitat type may have a significant effect on conservation efforts for this and other endangered cycad species.
Isolation and Characterization of Streptomycetes with Potential to Decompose Organic Compounds During Bioremediation of Arable Soil

The study has an objective of isolating and characterizing suspected Streptomycetes with the potential to decompose organic compounds in arable soil. The isolates were grown on a culture media and a total of 61 slopes were inoculated and labeled using the following characterization tests: catalase test, gram staining, oxidase test, motility test, and oxidative-fermentative test. After characterization tests, data generated in the laboratory were analyzed and the study showed that isolates A2 (c, e), B2 (c), C1 (b), C2 (a), D1 (e) and D2 (d) were suspected to be Streptomycetes species. Isolates D1 (d) and D2 (b) were suspected to be Escherichia coli while isolates A1 (a), B2 (a, b) and D1 (a) were suspected to be Bacillus species. Isolates A1 (b), C1 (a), D1 (c), D2 (e) were suspected to be Pseudomonas species. Further identification showed that isolates A2 (d) and B1 (b) could be Enterobacter species while isolates A2 (a, b) were suspected to be Klebsiella species. The study tentatively identified Streptomycetes species; Escherichia coli; Bacillus species; Enterobacter species; Pseudomonas species and Klebsiella species. The suspected Streptomycetes identified were considered as potential organic matter decomposers in arable soil.
Plant volatiles in the sexual communication of Melolontha hippocastani: response towards time‐dependent bouquets and novel function of (Z)‐3‐hexen‐1‐ol as a sexual kairomone

1. Swarming males of Melolontha hippocastani are known to locate females that stay feeding within the host trees by orienting towards damage‐induced plant volatiles (green leaf volatiles) and a sex pheromone. Thus, volatiles emitted by freshly damaged leaves might indicate to a male the presence of currently feeding females.
Capability Approach in Technology-Enhanced Tertiary Education: Looking for New Directions

: The Latvian-Ukrainian project “ Gender aspects of digital readiness and development of human capital in regions " (LV-UA/2018/3) highlighted some peculiarities in educator and student attitude to Information Technologies (IT) that is positive in major but currently their appropriate usage lacks behind the possibilities Digital Technologies (DT). This study, among others, raised two questions that are addressed in this article: “Does gender significantly affect educator and student attitude to DT? ” and “ Is educators’ current digital competence a comprehensive and sufficient target to meet modern rapid changes? ” Some findings have pointed out essentialities in competence development and attracted the researcher attention to sources of attitudes, as well as challenged looking for a new direction to an appropriate pedagogical provision for further development of educator and tertiary student digital competence. The aim is to provide a theoretically-based introduction to the capability approach in using DT while building the capacity of the internal and external environment of higher education. The theoretical investigation draws on the theory of attitude sources and capability approach of educators and students; the empirical data illustrate the theoretical statements of attitude to IT. The empirical research methods and tools to illustrate theoretical considerations are questionnaires “ Personal cultural orientations ”, “ Cultural values scale ”, and “ Scale to measure attitudes toward IT ”; data processing followed the procedure suggested by the methodology of each tool. The research base is made up of 1013 respondents (n = 260 in Latvia; n = 753 – in Ukraine). The article advances arguments in favour of the capability approach to be discussed as a possibility to introduce a new pedagogical direction to further improve educators’ competencies
A comparison of seed yields of winter grain legumes in Western Australia

Field trials were conducted in 2 seasons at 13 sites on neutral to alkaline soils in Western Australia, to compare the growth and seed yield of 6 winter grain legume species: field pea (Pisum sativum L.), chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), faba bean (Vicia faba L.), lentil (Lens culinaris Medik), narrow leaf lupin (Lupinus angustifolius L.), albus lupin (L. albus). In a dry year (1991), overall site mean seed yield was highest for field pea (1.35 t/ha), then faba bean (1.22 t/ha) and narrow leaf lupin (0.85 t/ha). Chickpea, lentil line ILL5728, and albus lupin produced an average seed yield of 0.64 t/ha. Rainfall in 1992 was above average and seed yields of all species except field pea were higher than in 1991. Heavy rainfall in winter and spring caused transient waterlogging at several sites, affecting growth and seed yield of most species. Faba bean responded positively to the increase in rainfall and produced exceptional seed yields of >4 t/ha at 3 sites. Mean seed yield was highest for faba bean, at 2.87 t/ha, then narrow leaf lupin (1.19 t/ha), chickpea (1.1 t/ha), and field pea (1.0 t/ha). Field pea performed poorly at several sites due to its susceptibility to transient waterlogging and black spot disease (caused by Mycosphaerella pinoides). Albus lupin and lentil line ILL5728 produced similar seed yields (0.78 t/ha). Lentil cvv. Laird (1991) and Kye (1992) had low seed yields due to poor adaptation. Seed yield differences between species at various locations were not simply related to any soil chemical parameters or to depth to clay. On a calcareous soil of pH(CaC12) 8 at Dongara, the growth of narrow leaf lupin was severely affected and the crop failed. Days to flowering varied between species; faba bean was earliest to flower (76 days), then field pea. Faba bean and field pea (particularly in 1991) generally produced the most dry matter, both early and at final harvest. The relationship between seed yield and rainfall was complicated by transient waterlogging and fungal disease (e.g. black spot in field pea) at many sites. Seed yield was significantly positively related to final dry matter production but not to harvest index.
THE CYTOGENETICS OF LOTUS. I. EMBRYO-CULTURED INTERSPECIFIC DIPLOID HYBRIDS CLOSELY RELATED TO L. CORNICULATUS L

Introduction The genus Lotz~s of the tribe Loteae contains a heterogeneous assemblagc of annual and perennial species numbering close to 200 (Larsen, 1958). There are two principle geographic centers of origin of the species, namely, the Mediterranean region (Hertzsch, 1959) and Western North America (Nlunz and Keclt, 1959). A few endemic species are found in Australia, Japan, and North Africa (Brand, 1898). The range of soine species has been gfeatly extended by man, for exan~ple, several agronomically interesting species of European origin (of which L. conzicz~latz~s L. and L. 71zajor Scop. (syn. L. ~~ligi~zosz~s Schltuhr) are most widely cultivated) are now well established in North Africa, New Zealand, Australia and on the American continent as forage crops (I Hertzsch, 1959). Chron~oson~e numbers determined for different species (2n = 12, 14, 24, 28) indicate that a polyploid series with two basic chron~osome nuinbers (i.e., x = 6 and 7) exists within the genus (Darlington and Wylie, 1955; unpublished observations).
Effect of thioredoxin-linked reduction on the activity and stability of the Kunitz and Bowman-Birk soybean trypsin inhibitor proteins

Protease inhibitors, including the Kunitz and Bowman-Birk trypsin inhibitorsof soybean, can be reduced by the NADP/thioredoxin system (NADPH, thioredoxin, and NADP-thioredoxin reductase) from either Escherichia coli or wheat germ. In the present study, we report that, when reduced by thioredoxin, the Kunitz and Bowman-Birk soybean trypsin inhibitors lose their ability to inhibit prytsin. Moreover, the reduced form of the inhibitors showed increased susceptibility to heat and proteolysis by either subtilisin or a protease preparation from germinating wheat seeds

Feeding-preference trials confirm unexpected stable isotope analysis results: freshwater macroinvertebrates do consume macrophytes

The loss of connectivity in intermittent streams can limit aquatic-invertebrate access to food resources, with different resources available in individual pools. Although leaf litter was abundant in the Macquarie River in Tasmania, stable carbon and nitrogen isotope analyses suggested that aquatic macrophytes were more prevalent in shredding macroinvertebrate diets. We tested this result with two multi-choice trials, which examined the feeding preferences of Atalophlebia albiterminata (Ephemeroptera) and the case-building trichopterans Lectrides varians, Notalina bifaria, Triplectides similis and T. ciuskus ciuskus. We first tested preferences for the dominant benthic leaf species (Acacia mucronata, Eucalyptus amygdalina, E. barberi, E. obliqua and E. viminalis). We hypothesised that macroinvertebrates would preferentially select leaves with lower chemical concentrations. However, there were no strong preferences for conditioned leaves by any invertebrate, although the leaves varied in toughness, tannin, nitrogen and allelochemical content. Second, we examined the preferences for E. amygdalina and E. barberi leaves or the fresh macrophytes Triglochin procerum, Myriophyllum salsugineum and Potamogeton tricarinatus. Macrophytes were preferred over leaves by all invertebrates, with T. procerum significantly preferred over the other macrophytes. This suggests that macrophytes may be undervalued in riverine food webs, and should be included in analyses of food webs using stable isotopes.
Endopolyploidy in seed plants is differently correlated to systematics, organ, life strategy and genome size

Endopolyploidy is a systemic feature in seed plants. A negative correlation between genome size and endopolyploidization has been claimed previously, assuming that a minimum amount of DNA, necessary for certain cell functions, has to be acquired by endopolyploidization of the corresponding cells in plants with small genomes. This assumption was based on the analysis of only a limited set of data from few species. In the present study the endopolyploidization of several organs of 54 seed plant species belonging to two gymnosperm and 14 angiosperm families was investigated. The results revealed a low negative correlation between genome size and endopolyploidization. However, differences between the families, between the different organs of a given species and between the different life-cycle types with regard to endopolyploidization became obvious. A three-way analysis of variance with covariate to quantify the impact of the different factors on the extent of endopolyploidization suggested that taxonomic position is the major factor determining the degree of endopolyploidy within a species, while life cycle, genome size and organ type have a minor but also significant effect on endopolyploidization. The comparison of habitats of 16 investigated Central European species implies that endopolyploidization represents a mean to accelerate the growth of plant species in niches, which require and support fast development.
Suitability of Spodoptera littoralis larvae for development of Microplitis rufiventris

Summary A study of the solitary parasitoid Microplitis rufiventris on larvae of Spodoptera littoralis showed that the age of the host at parasitization influenced the rate of development of the parasite, the percentage of parasitized hosts giving rise to mature parasite larvae, the number of moults subsequent to stinging, duration of larval instars, and the fecundity and longevity of the resulting adult parasites.
Why Ignore the Dark Side of Social Media? A Role of Social Media in Spreading Corona-Phobia and Psychological Well-Being

Coronaviruses are a category of associated viruses that trigger disease in mammals and birds. Human coronaviruses have been identified including severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus (SARS-CoV) in 2003, human coronavirus NL63 (HCoV NL63) in 2004, human coronavirus HKU1 (HKU1) in 2005, Middle East respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus (MERS-CoV) in 2012, and severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) in December, 2019. This study aims to examine whether social media at residing/admittance in quarantine ward (due to corona virus pandemic disease) affects psychological health or not? We asked questions from 250 quarantined patients infected from coronavirus (restricted to quarantine ward) about their psychological health who have accessed of different channels of social media. This study concludes that social media has caused of various psychological symptoms in quarantined patients (due to coronavirus) in form of anxiety, depression, negative well-being, lack of self-control, general health and vitality. This study suggests that there is an urgency to provide awareness/right information to each infected individual and their family members to create peaceful society and social rest. Thus, productive use of social media is recommended while minimizing its negative impact.
Effect of milk fat globule membrane materials on the crystallization behaviour in dairy recombined cream

Milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) fragments were isolated from reconstituted buttermilk (BM-MFGM) and from buttermilk whey (whey-MFGM) and used to make recombined cream. Besides, the commercial dairy ingredient, LacprodanPL20, a material rich in milk polar lipids and proteins, was used as another MFGM source. Recombined cream was prepared by homogenizing 35% (w/w) anhydrous milk fat into an aqueous phase containing individual BM-MFGM, Whey-MFGM, LacprodanPL20, or buttermilk powder (BMP) or a mixture of MFGM materials and BMP (4:6, w/w). The effect of MFGM on the fat crystallization behaviour, shear-induced partial coalescence was investigated and compared to those of natural cream and recombined cream made with BMP. It was found that the physicochemical properties of recombined cream were strongly affected by the MFGM source. Shear-induced partial coalescence of WheyMFGM40 was slower compared to that of natural cream. Amongst the four emulsifier materials used in this study, Whey-MFGM showed a similar crystallization behaviour to natural cream.
Increasing teachers’ behavior-specific praise using self-monitoring and a peer teacher’s feedback: the effect on children’s academic engagement

Abstract This study examined the effects of teacher self-monitoring combined with peer teacher feedback on their use of behavior-specific praise (BSP). We also examined its effect on children’s academic engagement. The study was conducted in general education classrooms at a Japanese elementary school using a multiple-probe design across participants. Participants included two teachers and 57 children in first and second grade. After the baseline phase, an intervention based on a self-monitoring procedure and peer teacher feedback was implemented to increase teacher use of BSP. Both teachers’ BSP use and children’s academic engagement increased post-implementation; similar effects were maintained in a follow-up session two months later.
PERSONAL FACTORS AS PREDICTORS OF PSYCHOLOGICAL DISTRESS AMONG INTERNALLY DISPLACED PERSONS

Displacement as a result of conflict or insurgency creates a permanent scar on the survivor with physical, psychological and social sequels; however personal factors play a significant role. Therefore, this study investigated personal factors as predictors of psychological distress among internally displaced persons in Maiduguri, Nigeria. In this cross-sectional study of survey type, the multi-stage sampling techniques were employed, and cluster sampling techniques were used to select two Internally Displaced Persons’ (IDPs) camps. Two hundred and one IDPs residing in the camps were selected using purposive sampling techniques. Their age ranged between 18 and 65 years ( M = 37.2; SD = 1.6). The results of Multiple Regression analysis showed that personality traits and a demographic factor (sex) jointly predicted psychological distress among IDPs. The variables jointly accounted for 22% variation R 2 = . 215 on psychological distress. Regarding the individual contribution, neuroticism s = . 166; t = 2.34; p < . 05, conscientiousness s = -. 233; t = -3.36; p < . 05, openness to experience s = -. 169; t = -2.45; p < . 05 and sex s = -. 352; t = 5.17; p < . 05 made a significant prediction on IDPs psychological disturbances. The findings of this study revealed that the personal characteristics of an individual had a predictive influence on psychological distress among IDPs in Maiduguri, Nigeria.
True Resistant Hypertension among Treated Hypertensive Black Patients. A Clinical-Based Cross-Sectional Study

Background and Objective: 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) aids to precisely identify patients with true resistant hypertension (tRH). The present study was aimed to assess the frequency and correlates of tRH among patients with clinically suspected RH. Methods: Medical records of treated hypertensive patients referred in four healthcare centers for BP control evaluation by 24-h ABPM were reviewed to assess the prevalence of tRH. Inclusion criteria were age ≥ 18 years, clinical diagnosis of RH. Data on demographic, clinical, laboratory, 2D-echocardiography and 24-h ABPM parameters were retrieved from patient’s medical records. True RH (tRH) was defined as office blood pressure (BP) ≥ 140/90 mmHg and 24-h ambulatory BP ≥ 130/80 mmHg. Simple and multiple linear regression analyses were used to assess factors associated with systolic BP (SBP) as a proxy of RH among patients with tRH. P 0.05 defined the level of statistical significance. Results: Of 636 patients referred for BP control evaluation by 24-h ABPM, 75 (11.7%) had suspected RH by office BP measurements. After 24-h ABPM, pseudo or apparent RH (aRH) and tRH were observed in 15 (2.3%) and 60 (9.4%) patients, respectively. BMI (p = 0.007) and blood glucose (p = 0.024) were positively associated with SBP whereas a negative association was observed with eGFR (p = 0.022) among tRH hypertensive patients in multiple regression analysis. Conclusion: True RH was a common finding among patients with clinical RH and associated with obesity and silent target organ, especially kidney dysfunction. The present study highlights the diagnostic and prognostic importance of 24-h ABPM among patients with clinical RH.
The exploitation of Upogebia africana (Crustacea: Thalassinidae) for bait in the Knysna Estuary

The activities of people collecting Upogebia africana for bait at six popular collecting sites in the Knysna Estuary were monitored from February 1995 until April 1996. Three groups of bait harvesters were identified on the basis of their source of income: subsistence fishers who rely on bait collecting and fishing for their income; supplementary fishers who catch fish to supplement their income; leisure anglers who draw no income from fishing. Two groups of collectors were identified based on methods of collecting bait and fishing: leisure anglers who collect bait using a prawn pusher or pump and fish using a rod and tackle; non-leisure fishers who collect using tin cans and fish with hand or planted lines. The average harvest of bait per collecting trip by leisure anglers was 59 mud prawns, whereas non-leisure fishers took 101 animals, twice the legal limit. The numbers of bait collectors present per mud bank were found to be highest on public holidays ([xbar] = 43.5) and higher during the summer holidays ([xbar] = 16.5) than during the spring/summer ([xbar] = 8.6) and autumn/winter ([xbar] = 4.6) periods. Most collectors spent 11–30 minutes on the mud banks. It was estimated that 1.86 x 106 U. africana or about 740 kg (dry mass) was removed by bait collectors annually from the six bait-collecting sites studied. This represented about 8.5% of the mud prawn stocks at these sites and about 0.9% of the entire estuary stock. 85% of the mud prawns taken as bait was removed by 77% of the bait collectors who were the non-leisure fishers.
