Floral Induction and Development in Phalaenopsis under Different Temperatures

Phalaenopsis plants were treated under different temperatures of 22/16 ℃,23/18 ℃,25/20 ℃ and 30/28 ℃(day/night),respectively. The results showed that 25/20 ℃ was the optimum temperature for inducing flowering. If the plants were maintained at 30/28 ℃,blossom did not occur. After treated for 30d and 40d under 22/16 ℃,23/18 ℃,25/20 ℃, they were moved to the control environment, the similar inducing effect could be achieved. However, the flower development was blocked when Phalaenopsis plants were removed at 30/28 ℃ after the spiking under 25/20 ℃.
Growth performance and organoleptic properties of broilers raised on used and mixed litters

The present investigations were conducted at the experimental site of entomological research farm, College of Agriculture, Rajmata Vijayaraje Scindia Krishi Vishwa Vidyalaya, Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh during 2011-12 and 2012-13. Bio-efficacy of nine insecticides namely, acephate, acetamiprid, oxy-demeton methyl, dimethoate, Imidacloprid, carbosulphan, flonicamid, thiamethoxam and fipronil were studied against mustard aphid, Lipaphis erysimi (Kalt.) and their effect on its natural enemies, Coccinella septempunctata under field condition. Mean aphid population (after three sprays, nine observations, average taken over two years) showed significant superiority of insecticide treatments against control. Imidacloprid was found most effective followed by Thiamethoxam and Oxy -dameton methyl. Carbosulphon was least effective followed by flonicamid and fipronil as given in table 5. All the insecticidal treatments proved significantly superior registering high grain yield. With regard to yield all the insecticides treatment proved significantly superior registering higher yield (980 to 1425 kg/ha) than control (780kg/ha). The maximum grain yield (1425 kg/ha) was obtained with Imidacloprid treated plot followed by Thiamethoxam and Oxy -demeton methyl. Whereas, Carbosulphon recorded the lower yield (980 kg/ha) and was at par with Flonicamid. In control, the yield obtained was (780 kg/ha). The cost benefit ratio ranged from1: 1.52 to 1:13.28. Highest incremental cost benefit ratio with highest return was obtained from (1:13.28) with Imidacloprid followed by Dimethoate (1:9.88) and Oxydemeton-methyl (1:9.15). Poor incremental cost benefit ratio was obtained from Flonicamid (1:1.52) followed by Fipronil (1:3.30).
Macropores in Snowpacks of Sierra Nevada

Macropores - large open channels that can conduct water - have been found within snowpacks of the Sierra Nevada of California. Extensive networks of channels as well as apparently isolated single channels have been documented. These openings, which are usually found near the base of the snowpack, were recognized at several widespread sites. Such basal channels may be an important means of draining liquid water from the snowpack. The presence of open conduits in snow helps to explain such phenomena as rapid streamflow response to percolating rain and melt water.
Contact toxicity and repellent effect of three solvent extracts of Lippia rugosa A. Chev. leaves on the adults of Tribolium castaneum Herbst. (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae)

The use of chemical insecticides in the fight against pests is a real threat to the environment and human health. Thus, insecticidal plants are therefore a serious alternative to cure this issue. In fact, the extracts (hexane, acetone, methanol) of Lippia rugosa were tested on the adults of Tribolium castaneum to evaluate their insecticidal potential. Toxicity and repellence test were made. These extracts induce mortality of adults of Tribolium castaneum varied significantly with doses and duration (P
Integration of Online Treatment Into the “New Normal” in Mental Health Care in Post–COVID-19 Times: Exploratory Qualitative Study

Background The COVID-19 pandemic has necessitated an immediate and large-scale uptake of online treatment for mental health care. However, there is uncertainty about what the “new normal” in mental health care will be like in post–COVID-19 times. To what extent will the experiences gained during the pandemic influence a sustainable adoption and implementation of online mental health care treatment in the future? Objective In this paper, we aim to formulate expectations with regard to the sustainability of online mental health care after COVID-19. Methods In an interview study, 11 mental health care professionals were asked about their experiences and expectations for the future. Participants were recruited from a mental health care organization in the Netherlands. The interviews took place between April 7-30, 2020, at the peak of the COVID-19 crisis in the Netherlands. The data were analyzed using a thematic coding method. Results From the interviews, we learn that the new normal in mental health care will most likely consist of more blended treatments. Due to skill enhancement and (unexpected) positive experiences with online treatment, an increase in adoption is likely to take place. However, not all experiences promise a successful and sustainable upscaling of online treatment in the future. Mental health care professionals are learning that not all clients are able to benefit from this type of treatment. Conclusions Sustainable upscaling of online mental health care requires customized solutions, investments in technology, and flexibility of mental health care providers. Online treatment could work for those who are open to it, but many factors influence whether it will work in specific situations. There is work to be done before online treatment is inherently part of mental health care.

TOLERANCE AND EFFICACY OF NEW SPECIES OF ENTOMOPATHOGENIC NEMATODE, STEINERNEMA DHARANAII (NEMATODA: RHABDITIDA: STEINERNEMATIDAE) TO SOME COMMON AND MODERN INSECTICIDES

The tolerance and efficacy of new species of Entomopathogenic Nematode (EPN), Steinernema dharanaii(TFRIEPN-15) to some selected common and modern nine chemical pesticides (Endosulphan, Monocrotophos, Chlorpyriphos, Dimethoate, Imidacloprid, Thiaomethoxam, Carbaryl, Phorate and Methyl parathions) has been reported for the combined application under Integrated Pest Management (IPM) against forest insect pests. The freshly Infected Juveniles (IJs) of S. dharanaii were exposed to the desired concentration of commonly available chemical pesticides ranging from, lower to higher concentration for 72 hours and data on the survival in IJs was recorded. The infectivity of surviving IJs was tested against wax moth larvae, Galleria mellonella in the laboratory. The results indicated that the IJs of S. dharanaii were compatible to most of pesticides tested even in concentration higher than recommended doses in terms of survival and further infectivity. The findings suggest that the EPNs with better compatibility with the tested pesticides may serve as viable candidates for integrated pest management (IPM), however the doses of pesticides be kept as low as possible to achieve the better results.
STudies on the ITS1 sequences of some benedeniinges (monogenea:capsalidae) in Chinese maring fishes

In the course of working on the monogenea of marine fishes, many benedeniine capsalid specimens were collected from different hosts. The taxonomy situation of some specimens is uncertain when their morphological characteristics are examined. By using PCR directed sequencing, partial ITS1 sequences of Benedenia sargocentron collected from Sargocentron spiniferum, Neobenedenia melleni from Epinephelus awoara, Neobenedenia sp.1 obtained from E.akaara and Neobenedenia sp.2 from Lutjanus sanguineus, have been tested and analyzed. The results demonstrated that Neobenedenia sp.1, Neobenedenia sp.2 and N.melleni are very likely the same species since their ITS1 sequences are almost identical, with a difference of 0.7%. The difference of sequences between Benedenia sargocentron and Neobenedenia spp. is 33%. These results remedy the deficiency in the morphological taxonomy of these species.
'Sure, I Would Like to Continue' A Method for Mapping the Experience of Engagement in Video Games

In order to explore one aspect of the engaging nature of computer games, this study will propose a method that aims at classifying the experience of engagement in video games. Inspired by a literature review, we will focus on the fundamental causes of engagement that motivate a player so much that he or she wants to continue playing. By organizing this willingness to continue playing into six broad types of causes of engagement—intellectual, physical, sensory, social, narrative, and emotional— we describe a typology of player engagement and a method that is intended to map players’ experience of engagement while playing video games. The engagement mapping method is inspired by card sorting found from a perspective of usability testing, and in order to exemplify the use of the method, occurrences of the six types of engagement were investigated during gameplay in Angry Birds and Wii Sports.
Preparations of NiFe2O4 Yolk-Shell@C Nanospheres and Their Performances as Anode Materials for Lithium-Ion Batteries

At present, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have received widespread attention as substantial energy storage devices; thus, their electrochemical performances must be continuously researched and improved. In this paper, we demonstrate a simple self-template solvothermal method combined with annealing for the synthesis of NiFe2O4 yolk-shell (NFO-YS) and NiFe2O4 solid (NFO-S) nanospheres by controlling the heating rate and coating them with a carbon layer on the surface via high-temperature carbonization of resorcinol and formaldehyde resin. Among them, NFO-YS@C has an obvious yolk-shell structure, with a core-shell spacing of about 60 nm, and the thicknesses of the NiFe2O4 shell and carbon shell are approximately 15 and 30 nm, respectively. The yolk-shell structure can alleviate volume changes and shorten the ion/electron diffusion path, while the carbon shell can improve conductivity. Therefore, NFO-YS@C nanospheres as the anode materials of LIBs show a high initial capacity of 1087.1 mA h g−1 at 100 mA g−1, and the capacity of NFO-YS@C nanospheres impressively remains at 1023.5 mA h g−1 after 200 cycles at 200 mA g−1. The electrochemical performance of NFO-YS@C is significantly beyond NFO-S@C, which proves that the carbon coating and yolk-shell structure have good stability and excellent electron transport ability.
Evaluation of unconventional oil cakes on in vitro Methanogenesis and fermentation of feed in rumen liquor of Buffalo

In the present experiment four unconventional oil cakes (UOC) viz. karanj (Pongamia glabra), mahua (Madhuca indica), neem (Azadirachta indica) and castor bean (Ricinus communis) were tested for their effect on methane production, total gas production, IVTD, and ammonia nitrogen concentration. In Experiment I all the UOCs (Karanj, Mahua, Neem and castor bean) were evaluated for their feed fermentation in in vitro where 70% of UOCs and 30% maize was used as a substrate (50:50 Concentrate : Wheat straw). The methane production (ml/g DM) was significantly reduced (p
Using a robotics path planning algorithm to assess the risk of mobile bearing dislocation in lateral unicompartmental knee replacement.

Dislocation of the bearing occurs in 1 6% of Oxford Domed Lateral (ODL) mobile bearing unicompartmental knee replacements (UKRs). Dislocations occur in flexion as the lateral ligaments are lax in this position allowing the knee to distract. Anterior and posterior dislocations are rare: clinically, their dislocation rates are acceptable. Most dislocations tend to occur medially, with the bearing sitting on top of the tibial wall. Using robotics path planning algorithms and a modified Open Motion Planning Library (OMPL) Graphical User Interface (GUI), a dislocation analysis tool was developed to assess the minimum amount of vertical distraction of the femoral component relative to the tibial component required for the mobile bearing to dislocate. In the tool, the Rapidlyexploring Random Trees (RRT) algorithm was applied to the mobile bearing, which enabled autonomous movement of the bearing from a non-dislocated to a dislocated position. Testing increased the relative distance between the femoral component and the tibial component: vertically (2-6 mm) and mediolaterally (0-4 mm) in 0.25 mm increments resulting in a total of 289 configurations. For each configuration, the tool assessed whether mobile bearing dislocation was possible (either medially, laterally, anteriorly or posteriorly). For each mediolateral translation distance, the minimum vertical distraction required for dislocation was recorded. To validate the tool, dislocation results were compared to measurements taken using a custom-built mechanical rig. The minimum amount of distraction required for medial dislocation was similar for the dislocation analysis tool (3.75 to 4.75 mm) as compared to a custom-built mechanical rig (2.5 to 4 mm). The amount of distraction for a medial dislocation was much smaller than that for an anterior or posterior dislocation (6 to 6.25 mm). This explains why medial dislocations are more common. Future work will use this tool to inform implant design, * Designed the study, analyzed and interpreted the data, wrote and revised the manuscript. † Conceived and designed the study, analyzed and interpreted the data, wrote and revised the manuscript.

Tatti (eds.), CAOS 2020 (EPiC Series in Health Sciences, vol. 4), pp. 301–305 with the aim to reduce the risk of medial dislocation to match that of anterior/posterior dislocation, which is clinically acceptable.
Design of Polarization Reconfigurable Patch Antenna for Wireless Communications

─ A single fed circularly polarized reconfigurable patch antenna is proposed. The antenna consists of a radiating patch incorporated with an Hshaped slot at its center. Four ultra-miniature switches are used for polarization reconfiguration. The antenna is designed to operate at the center frequency of 2.357 GHz. The antenna achieves either left-hand polarization or right-hand polarization depending upon switching of corresponding switches. The antenna parameters are simulated using Ansoft high-frequency structure simulator and are validated using an Agilent network analyzer (N9925A) and antenna test systems. The antenna achieves a good impedance match of 120MHz between 2.26GHz – 2.38GHz band and achieves low crosspolarization isolation of -22.82 dB for RHCP and -21.77 dB for LHCP configurations at its operating frequency. The antenna finds application in areas of modern wireless communication. Index Terms ─ Antenna feeds, antenna radiation patterns, circular polarization, microstrip antennas, slot antennas.

With an aim to better understand the past research on remanufacturing, this paper presents a literature review using the citation network analysis. Based on objective information (i.e., citations among journals and articles), a brief overview of the research on remanufacturing is provided. More specifically, two analyses are described: (1) centrality analysis of journals to identify the most influential journals in the field of remanufacturing and (2) cluster and content analysis of articles to recognize the research topics and communities of great attention in the field. It is expected that the results can provide researchers with an approximate idea of the journals and research topics that are important and promising.
Ginkgo biloba and Helianthus annuus show different strategies to adjust photosynthesis, leaf water relations, and cell wall composition under water deficit stress

Cell wall thickness (Tcw) determines photosynthesis and leaf elasticity. However, only a few studies in angiosperms addressed cell wall composition implication in regulating photosynthesis and leaf water relations through mesophyll conductance (gm) and bulk modulus of elasticity (ε) adjustments, respectively. Thus, we compared the phylogenetically distant Ginkgo biloba L. and Helianthus annuus L. under control and water deprivation to study the relationship between changes in cell wall composition (cellulose, hemicelluloses, and pectins) with gm and ε. Although no changes were found for Tcw, both species differently modified cell wall composition, resulting in different physiological consequences. H. annuus increased cellulose, hemicelluloses, and pectins in a similar proportion, maintaining ε. Additionally, it reduced photosynthesis due to stomatal closure. G. biloba did not decrease photosynthesis and largely increased hemicelluloses, leaf mass area, and leaf density, enhancing ε. Nonetheless, no association between cell wall composition and gm was found in either of the two species.
Synthesis of Multifunctional Microbubbles through Precursor Microfluidic Droplet Generation by

Synthesis of Multifunctional Microbubbles through Precursor Microfluidic Droplet Generation Huai-An Jeng Master of Applied Science Department of Materials Science and Engineering University of Toronto 2019 Microbubbles can resonate in response to ultrasound to enhance contrast for ultrasound imaging and to locally deliver therapy. This resonance depends on the microbubble size and shell properties. Here, a method was developed to produce perfluorocarbon gas filled microbubbles with the potential to encapsulate therapeutic molecules by lyophilizing size-controllable, lipid-stabilized precursor oil-in-water microfluidic droplets. Heat treating the precursor oil droplets increased microbubble yield by ∼40%. Furthermore, microbubbles could only be formed by incorporating ≥ 6 mg/mL of lipids into the oil phase of the droplets. Microbubble formation yield from the precursor droplets was ∼40%. The final microbubbles were echogenic and could cavitate in response to ultrasound (18 MHz at ∼5.4 MPa). Surprisingly, by adjusting the concentration of lipid in the water phase of the precursor droplets, liquid droplets could be formed via the spontaneous condensation of microbubbles after saline reconstitution of the lyophilized precursors.
Increasing Robustness of Audio Watermarking DM using ATHC Codes.

— This paper presents a robust technique for embedding digital watermarks into digital audio signals. Watermarking is a technique used to label digital media by hiding copyright or other information into the underlying data. In the case of digital audio the main constraint is the trade-offs between imperceptibility and robustness, due to hearing is one of the most sensitive senses. In our method, the original watermark is modified by a system of error control coding (ECC) for create a robust watermark. We use an asymmetric turbo-Hadamard code (ATHC) in the ECC process, it has good performance compared to original turbo-Hadamard code (THC) in waterfall region. The embedding process is by mean of dither modulation (DM) in the time domain, this one is an implementation of quantization index modulation (QIM). As a result we obtain a robust technique against MPEG-1 layer III (mp3) and better than others algorithms in time domain as LBM, DC-Shifting.
Bioenergy Potential and Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Intensifying European Temporary Grasslands

Agricultural intensification is considered essential for meeting growing demand for food and biomass for energy purposes. Intensifying grasslands is under-represented, although it is a promising option given their large land area and relatively low management levels. This study quantifies the bioenergy potential from intensifying temporary grasslands in Europe and the integral greenhouse gas emission effects in 2030. We first conducted a literature review of intensification options for European grasslands and then applied the environmental impact assessment model MITERRA-Europe to implement the key intensification option of using multi-species grass mixtures. The results showed that 853 kha (or 8%) of temporary grassland could be made sustainably available for additional biomass production. This can be translated into a bioethanol potential of 23 PJ yr−1 and an emission mitigation potential of 5.8 Mt CO2-eq yr−1 (if conventional grass mixture from surplus temporary grassland is used for energy) or 72 PJ yr−1 and 4.0 Mt CO2-eq yr−1 (if surplus temporary grassland is used for grassy energy crops). Although the bioenergy potential is limited, the key advantage of intensification measure is that it results in a better environmental performance of temporary grasslands. This makes it a key option for sustainably producing bioenergy in areas with high shares of temporary grasslands.
ASYMMETRIC GARCH-TYPE AND HALF-LIFE VOLATILITY MODELLING OF USD/KZT EXCHANGE RATE RETURNS

Empirical studies have shown that a large number of financial assets returns exhibit fat tails (leptokurtosis) and are often characterized by volatility clustering and asymmetry. This paper considers the ability of the asymmetric GARCHtype models to capture the stylized features of volatility in USD/KZT exchange rate returns. Therefore, the half-life parameter of the USD/KZT returns series were calculated for three sub-periods. The results revealed that the half-life was 6 days, 16 days and 12 days for 1st sub-period, 2nd sub-period and 3rd sub-period respectively. According to the results, in the presence of asymmetric responses to innovations in the Kazakhstan foreign exchange market, the EGARCH (1.1)-GED model which accommodates the kurtosis of financial time series is preferred. Also, these results show that the USD/KZT exchange rate returns have strong mean reversion and short half-life.
Spatial and temporal variation of normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) in the Uben river basin of Gujarat

The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) is important indicators for monitoring of vegetation status. The remote sensing based bio-physical variable maps were used to estimate NDVI in Uben river catchment and command area of Gujarat state, India. Multi date satellite images of Landsat-8 for Rabi season, year 2018-19 were used in the ArcGIS 10.3 software to derive the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI). The maximum NDVI in the study area was 0.566 on February 19, 2019.The minimum NDVI in the study area was -0.327 on February 19, 2019. The average NDVI value ranges from -0.132 to 0.368 for wheat crop, 0.092 to 0.294 for coriander crop, 0.098 to 0.204 for cotton crop and 0.083 to 0.103 for waste land.The average NDVI value for wheat and coriander crop was increase from Initial stage to Mid-crop growth stage and then decreased during End season stage. The cotton crop shows higher NDVI value in December i.e. 0.204 then decreased due to harvesting of cotton. The average NDVI values in waste land were less as compared to agricultural land with crop and forest area due to no vegetation and exposed soil.
