Assessing College Writing: Do Students Connect with the Text?

Reading-response research has shown that students respond to a text by engaging various cognitive and emotional processes. The aim of the current study was to examine students’ written reactions to an assigned reading as a way to determine (1) whether students connect with the reading and (2) the differing cognitive styles they may utilize in their reactions. The methods applied two text-analytic procedures to 238 student reactions to an ethics case study. The procedures were language style matching, which is a metric of engagement, and the categoricaldynamic index, which is a metric of analytic and experiential processing. We predicted that students who more strongly connected–or engaged–with the text would also demonstrate greater analytic thinking in their written response and, conversely, those who weakly connected with the text would express a more informal response based on experience. The data were analyzed using correlation statistics. The results showed that students whose writing more closely matched with the linguistic style of the case study were more likely to use an analytical style of writing, and students whose writing weakly matched the linguistic style of the case study were more likely to use an informal narrative style of writing. Future research should examine the extent to which language style matching and an associated analytic cognitive style are emergent skills that develop over the course of a college experience.
Impact of Extended Heat Treatment on the Amino Acid Digestibility and TMEn Content of a Formaldehyde‐Treated Diet

SUMMARY Eliminating the contamination of broiler carcasses by pathogens such as Salmonella that can cause human illness continues to be a tremendous challenge and concern for the poultry industry and government regulatory agencies. One source for the introduction of these pathogens in poultry production can be the feed. Extended heat conditioning of diets prior to pelleting combined with the addition of preservatives such as formaldehyde has proven effective in reducing the risk of Salmonella in poultry diets. However, there has been a concern that the addition of some forms of formaldehyde to diets subjected to extended heat treatment could decrease the metabolizable energy and amino acid availability of the diet. To partially address this question, the TMEn and digestible amino acid coefficients of a broiler starter diet treated with 0 (control) or 0.3% formaldehyde solution prior to heat treatment at 82°C for 4.5 min were determined. Cecectomized and intact adult Single Comb White Leghorn roosters were used for determining amino acid digestibility and TMEn, respectively. The addition of the formaldehyde compound did not affect either the TMEn or the digestible amino acid content of the diet, except for a marginal (less than 1%) decrease in arginine digestibility. These results indicate that the supplementation of poultry diets with formaldehyde solution prior to extended heat treatment to eliminate Salmonella contamination did not impact the nutritional value of these diets for poultry.
Socio-economic condition, welfare schemes, and occupational structure of ‘pattachitra’ artisans in Odisha, India

Abstract The aim of this paper is to examine the socio-economic conditions, welfare schemes, and occupational structure among pattachitra artisans in Puri district, Odisha (Eastern India). This study also tries to identify several barriers in the contemporary scenario, which hinders the sustainability of craft by limiting artisan’s livelihood. The field survey assisted in representing both the quantitative and qualitative results. With the use of purposive sampling, the sample size is 112 respondents (n) out of 350 total population (N). The application of inconsistency test, attribution theory, and correlation assisted in data analysis. The results indicate that low capital base, less decision-making power in the hands of women artisans, interference of machine products, and the problem of intermediaries block the development of this traditional craft in the current era. This study will be helpful for policymakers to understand the barriers encountered by traditional artisans. It provides suggestions concerning subsidy on raw materials, establishing fair price wholesale shops, giving financial support to build showrooms, initiating hassle-free promotional activities, and others to generate a sound and sustainable livelihood for the artisans. The uniqueness of this study lies in its qualitative findings that are unknown, and it is necessary to bring it to the forefront.
Genetic divergence and speciation within Ziziphora capitata (Lamiaceae): Molecular and micromorphological evidences

Tabaripour R, Sheidai M, Talebi SM, Noormohammadi Z. 2018. Genetic divergence and speciation within Ziziphora capitata (Lamiaceae): Molecular and micromorphological evidences. Biodiversitas 19: 747-755. Ziziphora capitata is a member of the Mint family (Lamiaceae) that naturally grows in various regions. Different subspecies have been reported for this species, from which two are recorded from Iran: Z. capitata subsp. capitata, and Z. capitata subsp. orientalis. In the present study, morphological, palynological and molecular (ISSR and cp-DNA) data were used to reveal speciation within this species and reconsider taxonomic rank of its presumed subspecies. The obtained results revealed a great difference between two presumed subsp. of Z. capitata. These taxa differed in morphological, palynological and molecular characteristics. Statistical and bioinformatics tests revealed significant genomic difference between them and phylogenetic analyses showed that they have a close affinity to some other Ziziphora species (out-groups used), then to each other. Bayesian and maximum parsimony phylogenetic trees differentiated the presumed sub-species of Z. capitata. Moreover, K-Means clustering and Bayesian analysis of genetic groups by Evanno test (optimal k) supported the presence of two distinct genetic groups within Z. capitata. This approach objectively defines a threshold separating intraspecific population substructure from interspecific divergence, which is the general aim of species delimitation studies. Therefore, the present study provides enough evidence for introducing two separate species within Z. capitata based on the traditional taxonomy as well as combination of molecular and micro-morphological data.
Insights Into the Role of Ubiquitination in Meiosis: Fertility, Adaptation and Plant Breeding

Ubiquitination is a post-translational modification process that plays a central role in protein degradation in eukaryotic cell cell division, including meiosis. This modification affects different cellular processes on a global scale by its pleiotropic ability to modify numerous proteins. Meiosis is essential for sexual reproduction and involves two rounds of nuclear division following a single round of DNA replication to produce haploid gametes. Unlike mitosis, meiosis has a unique prophase I, which involves homologous chromosome interaction including pairing, synapsis, recombination and segregation. Over the last several decades, molecular genetic studies have identified many proteins that participate in meiotic progression. In this review, we focus on the recent advances regarding the role of ubiquitination during plant meiotic cell cycle progression and recombination, especially the role played by the Anaphase-Promoting Complex and E3 ligases in modulating crossover formation and its impact on evolution and plant breeding.
Analyse de la régulation de la longueur dans un système neuronal de compression de phrase : une étude du modèle LenInit

La simplification de phrase vise a reduire la complexite d’une phrase tout en retenant son sens initial et sa grammaticalite. En pratique, il est souvent attendu que la phrase produite soit plus courte que la phrase d’origine, et les modeles qui integrent un controle explicite de la longueur de sortie revetent un interet particulier. Dans la continuite de la litterature dediee a la comprehension du comportement des systemes neuronaux, nous examinons dans cet article les mecanismes de regulation de longueur d’un encodeur-decodeur RNN applique a la compression de phrase, en etudiant specifiquement le cas du modele LenInit. Notre analyse met en evidence la coexistence de deux influences distinctes au cours du decodage : celle du controle explicite de la longueur, et celle du modele de langue du decodeur.
Biocontrol potential of Pasteuria spp. for the management of plant parasitic nematodes.

Plant parasitic nematodes represent a severe threat for agriculture, causing yield losses for several food and industrial crops, worldwide. Actually, increasing demand for organic food products and for sustainable management practices requires the development of biocontrol approaches based on suitable antagonists. In this review, some traits of members of the bacterial genus Pasteuria are discussed, focusing on their biology and taxonomy, host range, specificity and application for host nematode regulation. Given the high specificity of Pasteuria spp. and the biodiversity recognized within species, the exploitation of these parasites requires the collection of data on the isolates most suitable for practical use. Some traits of Pasteuria spp. biology appear favourable for biocontrol applications, such as the minimum impact on the other soil microorganisms and invertebrates, the durability of endospores, together with host specificity and regulation capability. Experimental evaluation of host–parasite compatibility for biocontrol purposes is a pre-requisite necessary for practical use. Isolates selection and evaluation may represent an additional cost in the development of commercial products and bioformulations based on mass cultivation of these bacteria. The Pasteuria spp. associated with nematode pests represent a valuable and widespread natural resource, whose benefits and application potential are not yet completely explored.
Al diffusion at AlN/Si interface and its suppression through substrate nitridation

One of the challenges for GaN-on-Si radio frequency (RF) device applications is the RF loss, which is mainly associated with a parasitic channel formed at the interface of AlN and high-resistivity Si substrates. However, the type of conductivity and formation mechanism of the parasitic channel remains controversial. Here, we report unambiguous evidence of Al diffusion at the AlN/Si interface and its effect on RF loss. Hall measurements reveal p-type conductivity at the interface. By combining with secondary ion mass spectroscopy measurements, the p-type conductivity is attributed to the Al diffusion from the AlN layers into the Si substrates, with Al being an acceptor in Si. Experimental data and simulations are in good agreement. We also demonstrate that substrate nitridation can indeed promote the formation of an amorphous silicon nitride layer, which plays a role in suppressing the Al diffusion and, thus, reducing the RF loss.
Does foliar CaCl2 application control pistachio endocarp lesion.

Pistachio Endocarp Lesion (PEL), an economic physiological disorder of pistachio fruits, has been reported in Iran, Australia and California. PEL would cause considerable but unpredictable damage in all Iran pistachio growing areas. There is not yet a known method available to even predict or control of the disorder. In the current work, the possibility of controlling PEL development after its natural incidence in developing clusters, using different concentrations and application- timings of CaCl2 sprays were evaluated. Also, the influences of sprays on leaf macro and micro nutrient elements of trees were compared. In 2011, monitoring PEL in orchard condition revealed that the highest damage rate was occurred in the mid of May and decreased during the last week of July. Foliar CaCl2 sprays were highly efficient in controlling PEL in late April so that it decreased PEL from 20% damage in control to less than 2% using one spray of 4 kg CaCl2 1000 L -1 ha -1 . Similar results obtained using two sprays of 2 kg ha -1 treatment. Between macro-nutrients including phosphorus, potassium, calcium and magnesium; orchard trees showed phosphorus deficiency with levels less than the critical level (0.14%) while others were higher than their critical levels. However Iron, zinc, manganese and copper were sufficient in all treatments. PEL monitoring-based CaCl2 application has no effect on changing calcium content of leaves while it was efficient in controlling PEL disorder during the development stage of pistachio clusters.
Defensive Strategies of a Noctuid Caterpillar in a Myrmecophytic Plant: are Dyops Larvae Immune to Azteca Ants?

Immature stages of insects are generally susceptive to their natural enemies, but many species developed defensive and evasive mechanisms to circumvent predation. Gregarious larvae of the noctuid moth Dyops cf. cuprescens feed on leaves of young Cecropia pachystachya shrubs colonized by Azteca ants. Ants avoid contact with larval clusters, retreating to the nest when larvae are moving near the stems. Provoked encounters revealed that Dyops caterpillars present several specialized behaviors to avoid and overcome ant attacks, such as fleeing to under leaf, jumping off the leaf, curling and wriggling vigorously the anterior portion of the body, spitting droplets of oral fluids, or killing ants by pouncing them. These mechanisms allow the caterpillars to overcome ant attacks and consume leaves of ant-colonized plants. By feeding on a heavily protected plant, larvae can enjoy not only a competitor-free plant, but possibly also the enemy-free space created by the aggressive ants.

Neurological Diseases and Relation of TRP Channels

Is currently used as a comprehensive definition covering “brain disorders”, neurological diseases and mental disorders. While schizophrenia, depression, panic disorder, drug addiction and insomnia are referred to as “mental disorders”, Epilepsy, Alzheimer, Parkinson, Huntington’s disease (HD) and multiple sclerosis are considered as “neurological disorders”. Current therapies of these very common diseases require continuous drug use and at the same time cause many different side effects. Therefore preclinical and clinical investigations for new treatment approaches are on the rise. Especially the identification of the molecular basis of these diseases is the focus of researches. Examination of transient receptor potential (TRP) channels is at an early stage in the investigation of the molecular principle of these diseases, but clear results regarding the efficacy of substances activating or inhibiting these channels have not been obtained. Some diseases have been based on mutations of TRP channels. However, only a few TRP channelopathies, have been conclusively identified so far [1]. Investigation of TRP channels in psychiatric disorders will contribute to a better understanding of the etiology of psychiatric disorders and the development of new pharmacological treatments.

There is no direct evidence that TRP channels play a role in schizophrenia. However, the fact that TRPV1 channels play a role in central dopaminergic and cannabinoid mechanisms may suggests the potential role of these channels in schizophrenia [5]. CGRP release from trigeminal vasculature neuron network and neurogenic inflammatory response are currently accepted mechanisms for migraine attack pathophysiology. In particular, the TRP vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) and the TRP ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) are expressed in nociceptive neurons, which also express the sensory neuropeptides, tachykinins, and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), which mediate neurogenic inflammatory responses. This evidence suggests that these channels may be an important therapeutic goal in migraine treatment [7].

Effect of tillage systems on pea crop infestation with weeds

ABSTRACT In a multi-year experiment, weed infestation of pea crop in three tillage systems was analyzed: a) conventional tillage (CT), b) reduced tillage (RT), and c) no-tillage (NT), and in two terms: 1) at 2–3 pea leaves stage (23–25 stage in BBCH scale) and 2) at the flat pod stage (75–79 BBCH). Treatments conducted in the CT system included shallow ploughing and pre-winter ploughing in the autumn. In the RT system, both these treatments were replaced by double cultivation, whereas only glyphosate treatment was applied in the NT system. In both terms of weed infestation assessment, the highest number and air-dry weight of weeds were determined in the RT system, lower ones in CT and the lowest ones in the NT system. In the first term, the number of weeds m−2 in the RT system was higher by 43.9% than in NT and by 26% than in CT system. Also in the second term was the weed number m−2 in RT higher by 58.6% than in NT and by 27.9% than in CT. Tillage systems differentiated also weed mass in pea crop. In RT, it was 4-fold higher than in NT and over 2-fold higher than in CT.

Adhesive from Waste Petrol and Waste Thermocol

In today’s life the generation of plastic waste has become the serious issue. It causes serious health and ecological problems like breeding of mosquito’s and if eaten by cattle and wild animals endangers their lives too, also it stops vegetation from grow obstructs in drain and piping, etc. The consumption of plastic has reached to 100 million tons, and this has caused increase in depletion of natural resources such as petroleum and natural gas etc. About 13 percent of the municipal solid waste is caused by plastic. 32 million tons of plastic waste was deposited in 2011, which is 12.7 percent of total MSW. Annually approximately 500 billion plastic bags are used worldwide every year. More than 1 million bags are used every minute. The main aim of thi make useful product from waste thermocol i.e. adhesive.
Development and Application of Computational Tool Using Local Surface Inclination Methods for Preliminary Analysis of Hypersonic Vehicles

This work presents a computational tool for preliminary analysis of hypersonic vehicles, based on local surface inclination methods: the HipeX. This program was developed for reading standard triangulation language (STL) geometry files and calculating pressure coefficient and temperature distributions over vehicle’s surface using the Newtonian, modified Newtonian or tangent-wedge methods. Validations were made with a cylinder and a sphere, where only the Newtonian method was applied, and with experimental data from Apollo capsule at Mach 10, where the Newtonian and the modified Newtonian methods were applied. These validations presented the code capability to read geometries as well as to estimate aerodynamic force coefficients. A preliminary application was to predict the aerodynamic force coefficients of a generic hypersonic vehicle over constant dynamic pressure trajectories of 23,940, 60,000 and 95,760 N/m2 with zero angle of attack. With a fixed dynamic pressure of 60,000 N/m2, this vehicle was tested over several Mach numbers and with angle of attack variation from -10 to 10 deg. Zero angle of attack investigation showed minor changes on the force coefficients with altitude, while the variation of angle of attack produced more pronounced variations on these parameters. Maximum flow temperatures over vehicle’s surface were estimated ranging from 850 to 5,315 K.
