Interactions Between Carbon Metabolism and Photosynthetic Electron Transport in a Chlamydomonas reinhardtii Mutant Without CO2 Fixation by RuBisCO

A Chlamydomonas reinhardtii RuBisCO-less mutant, ΔrbcL, was used to study carbohydrate metabolism without fixation of atmospheric carbon. The regulatory mechanism(s) that control linear electron flow, known as “photosynthetic control,” are amplified in ΔrbcL at the onset of illumination. With the aim to understand the metabolites that control this regulatory response, we have correlated the kinetics of primary carbon metabolites to chlorophyll fluorescence induction curves. We identify that ΔrbcL in the absence of acetate generates adenosine triphosphate (ATP) via photosynthetic electron transfer reactions. Also, metabolites of the Calvin Benson Bassham (CBB) cycle are responsive to the light. Indeed, ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP), the last intermediate before carboxylation by Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase-oxygenase, accumulates significantly with time, and CBB cycle intermediates for RuBP regeneration, dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP), pentose phosphates and ribose-5-phosphate (R5P) are rapidly accumulated in the first seconds of illumination, then consumed, showing that although the CBB is blocked, these enzymes are still transiently active. In opposition, in the presence of acetate, consumption of CBB cycle intermediates is strongly diminished, suggesting that the link between light and primary carbon metabolism is almost lost. Phosphorylated hexoses and starch accumulate significantly. We show that acetate uptake results in heterotrophic metabolism dominating phototrophic metabolism, with glyoxylate and tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle intermediates being the most highly represented metabolites, specifically succinate and malate. These findings allow us to hypothesize which metabolites and metabolic pathways are relevant to the upregulation of processes like cyclic electron flow that are implicated in photosynthetic control mechanisms.
Students Self Efficacy: Do Perceived Information Technology Competencies Andwork Readiness Matter?

Management education is currently facing new challenges that arise as a result of globalization, technological developments and weak ethics. This study aims to map the information technological competency and work readiness of accounting students and their influence on student self-efficacy in the digital era. This research used a quantitative approach. The respondents of this research were 106 students of the Accounting Study Program at Faculty of Economics Yogyakarta State. Data was collected using a semi open ended questionnaire which was circulated to students online. The data obtained were analyzed using qualitative descriptive analysis techniques through stages of reduction, presentation, and drawing conclusions. Path analysis is also used to analyze the direct and indirect effect of accounting students' information technological competency variables on work readiness and self-efficacy. Based on the data analysis, it was concluded that the highest Work Readiness was owned by students at the age of 20 years. There were no significant differences between the Information technological competency, Work Readiness, and self-efficacy levels. Based on the path analysis test, it is concluded that there is a direct effect of Information technological competency on Self Efficacy (-0.021), however, the effect on self-efficacy is not mediated by Work Readiness.
SFRE-Net: Scattering Feature Relation Enhancement Network for Aircraft Detection in SAR Images

Aircraft detection in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images is a challenging task due to the discreteness of aircraft scattering characteristics, the diversity of aircraft size, and the interference of complex backgrounds. To address these problems, we propose a novel scattering feature relation enhancement network (SFRE-Net) in this paper. Firstly, a cascade transformer block (TRsB) structure is adopted to improve the integrity of aircraft detection results by modeling the correlation between feature points. Secondly, a feature-adaptive fusion pyramid structure (FAFP) is proposed to aggregate features of different levels and scales, enable the network to autonomously extract useful semantic information, and improve the multi-scale representation ability of the network. Thirdly, a context attention-enhancement module (CAEM) is designed to improve the positioning accuracy in complex backgrounds. Considering the discreteness of scattering characteristics, the module uses a dilated convolution pyramid structure to improve the receptive field and then captures the position of the aircraft target through the coordinate attention mechanism. Experiments on the Gaofen-3 dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of SFRE-Net with a precision rate of 94.4% and a recall rate of 94.5%.
A survey report on teachers’ thought and awareness of using oral corrective feedback in the primary level: context Bangladesh

In learning a target language, making error is an inevitable part of learning process. Oral corrective feedback is a teacher signs to indicate the learners utterance of the target language is incorrect. This study aimed to elicit the most frequent types of oral corrective feedback used when they correct their students’ oral mistakes at primary level English classroom in Bangladeshi context. The paper discussed the results of data collected by using two instruments: survey questionnaires for 25 primary level English teachers, and a check-list for classroom observations. The results revealed that recast was the most frequent used type of corrective feedback in response to spoken errors made by the student in the classroom while clarification request was entirely ignored. However, sometime teachers did not provide feedback when students’ utterances could still be understood despite the presence of an error in order not to break the learners’ flow of mind. This study also exposed that grammatical and pronunciation errors were corrected more than other types and immediate correction was favoured by most teachers but depending on student needs, proficiency level, age, classroom objectives, and size of group, teacher provides different types of feedback techniques based on the types of spoken errors to best meet the needs of each individual student in Bangladeshi context of ESL classroom.
Contentment (Qana’ah) and Mental Health on Fishermen in Pena’ah Village, Indonesia

: The majority of fishermen in Pena'ah experienced a decline in income which caused them to be burdened economically. This has an impact on increasing mental health problems, while mental health services are not available in Pena'ah village. People who have contentment (qana'ah) characteristics feel enough with the least sustenance they have and do not demand more than what they have. This is one of the characteristics of a person who is likely to prevent the emergence of mental health problems. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine whether there was a relationship between qana'ah and the mental health of fishermen in Pena'ah village. The subjects of this study were 112 fishermen in Pena'ah village aged 17-50 years. The sampling technique used is cluster random sampling. The instrument used is the Mental Health Inventory (MHI-38) which has been adapted in Indonesian and the Qana'ah questionnaire developed by researchers based on Rusdy's (2016) and Hamka (2017) theory. Based on the results of statistical analysis using Pearson product moment correlation, it is known that there is a significant positive relationship between qana'ah and mental health, with a value of r = 0.196 and sig = 0.034 (sig <0.05). It can be concluded that increasing qana'ah in a person will be followed by an increase in mental health. Qana'ah is one of the positive qualities in humans that can prevent the emergence of mental health problems.
The benefits and challenges of mobile banking at the Bottom of the pyramid

Financial inclusion envisages bringing the people into the formal banking sector and mobile banking can help in this task. It is estimated that almost 85% of the BoP population in the world uses mobile phones but, whether the mobile banking will actually help the BoP and fulfill the purpose of financial inclusion remains a question. Limited research has been conducted on mobile banking among the BoP and has mainly focused on the mobile banking adoption and its determinants. The benefits and challenges of mobile banking to the poor have not been discussed in the past. Before working on the potential solutions of mobile banking, a serious thought over if the mobile banking will actually help the poor or in what ways can help in preparing a strategy that can integrate the positioning of the benefits of mobile banking solutions. Thus, through this research we aim to discuss the benefits and challenges of mobile banking to the BoP. The benefits of mobile banking to the BoP are reduced cost, reduced time and personalization. The challenges of mobile banking are related to system, security, regulatory environment, economic viability. The service providers should work closely with the government agencies to develop appropriate systems that can overcome the challenges and increase the benefits in order to encourage the use of mobile banking at the BoP.

— Predicting a stock price is a very difficult task because it is complex and involves many factors. This has led to drop in the investment level in the Malaysian stock market. It is difficult to predict the stock market because its environments are unstable and dynamic. Recently, the demand for neural network in the business arena is on the increase. It is need to analyze vast data in order to search for information and knowledge that do not exist by using traditional methods. This included stock market prediction that is a very significant research in business area. In regard to Bursa Malaysia, Artificial Neural Network (ANNs). ANNs was only used to predict main index, i.e. Kuala Lumpur Composite Index (KLCI), but no attempt to predict share price and in particular banking sector. Since ANN has potential to predict non-linear behavior, this research attempts the use of ANNs to predict banking sector stock price in FTSE Bursa Saham Malaysia Kuala Lumpur Composite Index (FBM KLCI). One of the interesting topics of stock-market research is stock market prediction. Precise stock forecasting becomes the greatest challenge in the investment industry because stock data distribution changes over time. This paper investigates the use of ANN to predict Malaysian stock price, in particular Maybank Berhad stock price. The

Differentially Expressed Genes in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Tissues and Their Correlation with Recurrence and Metastasis of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma

In this study, bioinformatics tools were used to identify key genes to study the molecular mechanism of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) development and to explore the correlation of these key genes with the recurrence and metastasis of NPC. The GSE61218 microarray dataset obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus Database (GEO) was used. The limma R package was used to screen differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between NPC and normal nasopharyngeal (NP) tissues. KEGG functional enrichment was performed on these selected DEGs. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks were constructed using Cytoscape software to identify key node proteins. The NPC-metastasis microarray dataset GSE103611 was obtained from GEO to analyze the expression of DEGs in NPC metastasis. A total of 239 DEGs were identified. DEGs were mainly enriched in oocyte maturation-related pathways, cytokine-related pathways, cell cycle-related pathways, cancer-related pathways, and homologous recombination-related pathways. In addition, the top 10 nodes with the higher degree in the DEG PPI network were as follows: CDK1, CCNB2, BUB1, CCNA2, AURKB, BUB1B, MAD2L1, NDC80, BIRC5, and CENPF. The results indicated that DEGs may be involved in the pathogenesis of NPC by regulating cell cycle and mitosis, which can be used as molecular biomarkers for the diagnosis of NPC. In addition, we identified 87 DEGs with FC > 2 and P < 0.01 from the metastasis spectrum of NPC. The intersection gene between DEGs of NPC and normal NP tissue samples and those of the metastatic spectrum of NPC was identified to be VRK2. The expression of VRK2 in NPC samples was significantly higher than that in normal NP tissue, and similarly, VRK2 expression was significantly upregulated in metastatic samples compared with nonmetastatic samples (P < 0.05). Therefore, VRK2 may be a biomarker for predicting the metastasis of NPC patients after treatment.
Developing innovation capability in a mass production organization

ABSTRACT Mass production firms in high labor cost environments need to develop a capability of continuous innovation to survive in the global marketplace. This need is complicated by the “productivity dilemma”; that a focus on efficiency inhibits innovative activity. Operations management literature suggests that resolution of this dilemma is achieved through “organizational ambidexterity,” balancing improvement (exploitation) and innovation (exploration). Building upon current theory, this article uses case study research to illustrate how improvement and innovation capabilities evolved, and how ambidexterity was achieved in an auto parts manufacturing organization, as it implemented novel assembly processes over a 4-year period. Results show how capabilities improve by altering underlying routines as a result of experiential learning, and that ambidexterity is achieved as a temporal sequencing among different levels within the organization. Developing innovation capability in a mass production organization requires organizational alignment between the Management, Engineering, and Production groups, as each has a specific role in the process.
Data analysis for driving pattern identification and driver's behavior modeling in a freeway work zone

A variety of methods are used by Departments of Transportation (DOT) for informing drivers about upcoming work zones. One such method is work zone signage configuration. Signage plays an important role in work zones to provide guidance to drivers when conditions on the road vary from normal. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the effectiveness of different configurations, by law, before implementation of new signage designs that deviate from the national standards. The Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) is a compilation of national standards for all traffic control devices, including road markings, highway signs, and traffic signals. In the present work which is funded by the Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT), the safety effect of an alternative merge sign configuration provided by MoDOT is investigated in a freeway work zone. This investigation is based on a simulation study that involves a total of 75 study participants representing an overall distribution of drivers in the state of Missouri. This simulation study required the participants to experience four work zone configurations on a driving simulator. Right merge and left merge scenarios were simulated for two work zone sign configurations, one being the national standard from MUTCD and the other being an alternate work zone sign configuration proposed by MoDOT. The objective of this study is to establish the effectiveness of both these configurations by data analyses. Results of the statistical analysis indicate that MUTCD left merge was significantly different than the driving patterns for the other three scenarios. There was significant difference between MUTCD left merge and MoDOT alternate left merge but no dramatic differences were observed for the right merge scenarios.
Effects of Crossbreeding Lacaune with Turcana Breed on Milk Production Traits

Objective of the current research was to evaluate the effects of crossbreeding the French Lacaune breed with Romanian indigenous Turcana sheep on milk production traits in crossbred ewes. Milk yield in Turcana ewes was on average 77.98±2.73 kg, with limits ranging between 64.67kg and 92.01kg. While in the F1 Lacaune x Turcana, the average milk production was of 109.04±4.70 kg, with limits ranging between 89.23kg and 129.76kg. The F1 Lacaune x Turcana ewes outperformed significantly (p 0.05) on the fat percentage from milk. Current results show that by using Lacaune rams for crossbreeding with the unimproved Turcana, the progeny will have significantly higher milk yields, and thus, the farm returns could be much improved in sheep enterprises that practice the semi-intensive pasture-based farming system. Thus, current results should be advertised to both farmers and the breeders associations, in order for the sheep farmers to take advantage of the breed complementarity found between the specialized Lacaune and the local Turcana.
P301. Default Mode Network Hypoalignment of Function to Structure Correlates With Depression and Rumination

Recent studies have begun to examine the extent to which signals in the brain correspond to the underlying white matter structure by using tools from the field of graph signal processing to quantify brain function alignment to brain network topology. Here, we apply this framework for the first time towards a transdiagnostic cohort of internalizing psychopathologies, including mood and anxiety disorders, to uncover how such alignment within the default mode network (DMN) is related to depression and rumination symptoms. We found that signal alignment within the posterior DMN is greater in IP patients than healthy controls and is anticorrelated with baseline depression and rumination scales. Signal alignment within the posterior DMN was also found to correlate with the ratio of total within-DMN to extra-DMN functional connectivity for these regions. These findings are consistent with previous literature regarding pathologic promiscuity of posterior DMN connectivity and provide the first GSP-based analyses in a transdiagnostic IP cohort.
