Grain weight of genotypes of triticale (X Triticosecale Wittmack) in agroecological conditions of Banja Luka

Grain weight is a genotypic characteristic that is directly related to the realization of yield. Analysis of average grain weight was performed in ten genotypes of winter hexaploid triticale (Trimaran, Ticino, Odisej, Agrano, BLT21, BLT17, BLT10, Max 1793, Bogo and Tornado). Experiment was conducted during 2005/06, 2006/07, 2007/08. in Trapisti, region Banja Luka. During the experiment of winter triticale standard agricultural practice was applied. Microclimatic conditions during triticale cultivation in 2006 and 2008. were relatively similar, while in 2007. there was drought period occurrence. Statistical analysis of observed genotypes for the specified parameter was performed with method analysis of variance 10x3. Analyses of significant differences were done by using LSD test, while interactive effect was analyzed by graphical method. The average weight of triticale genotypes grain regardless of the year showed highly statistically significant differences, while in observation of years regardless of the genotype showed mutually statistically significant differences. Analysis of these relationships was observed through the interaction effects as a final evaluation of the observed genotypes. Based on the average values of the grain weight, winter triticale genotypes were evaluated. The average grain weight of triticale genotypes in the observed years showed the lowest average weight in 2007 (0.0369 g), while the highest grain weight was obtained in 2006 (0.0406 g). Statistically significant difference of the average grain weight of the observed genotypes of triticale regardless of the year showed that genotypes Bogo (0.0465 g), Odisej (0.0453 g) and BLT10 (0.0424 g) were those of the highest average grain weight without significant differences between them. These genotypes were evaluated as potentially productive genotypes under the agroecological conditions of Banja Luka.

The Application of AutoCAD Software in Forestry

AutoCAD is an accessorial desktop cartography software widely used in project cartography for its easy manipulation and data edit ability. GIS is a powerful tool of using computers to make dimensional with advantage of display, analysis, output and management of geographical data. The data of the two systems is not compatible and they need to be transformed for data sharing and application. This paper points out the difference of AutoCAD and GIS data, analyzes some common problems during the data transforming process and introduced the experimental study which takes example for transforming the CAD forestry map of Buyunshan country, Dalian city to ArcView geographical information system. The objective of this paper was trying to find an effective way for the transformation from CAD graphics files to geographical information system.
<b>Scaling the number of plants per plot and number of plots per genotype of yellow passion fruit plants</b> - doi: 10.4025/actasciagron.v36i1.17697

There is a demand for research on yellow passion fruit plants (Passiflora edulis Sims) used for juice production. Thus, the present study aimed to determine the number of plants per experimental plot and the number of plots per genotype for different properties of passion fruit. The data used were obtained from an experiment (Tangara da Serra, Mato Grosso State, Brazil) that assessed 13 fruit properties in eight genotypes of yellow passion fruit plants, with 10 replicates and 10 plants per plot. For each of the 80 experimental plots, the optimum plot size (Xo) was estimated by the method of maximum curvature of the coefficient of variation model. The number of replicates for each genotype and the means were estimated through the use of 10 plants per plot, combined with Xo plants per plot. The optimum plot size for the assessment of properties in yellow passion fruits independent of genotype is less than five plants, as the number of replicates is a function of the desired magnitude of accuracy. The number of plants per experiment is lower when using Xo plants per plot.

Risk Factors for Breast Cancer Among Chinese Women: A 10-Year Nationwide Multicenter Cross-Sectional Study

The characteristics of established risk factors for breast cancer may vary among countries. A better understanding of local characteristics of risk factors may help in devising effective prevention strategies for breast cancer.Information on exposures to risk factors was collected from the medical charts of 4211 women with breast cancer diagnosed during 1999-2008. The distributions of these exposures among regions, and by menopausal status and birth period, were compared with the χ(2) test. Crude associations between the selected factors and breast cancer were estimated using the cases in the present study and a representative control population, which was selected from qualified published studies.As compared with cases from less developed regions, those from more developed regions were significantly more likely to be nulliparous, had fewer childbirths (P < 0.05), and were less likely to have breastfed (P = 0.08). As compared with premenopausal cases, postmenopausal cases were more likely to be overweight and to have breastfed and had more childbirths (P < 0.05). The number of live births and rate of breastfeeding decreased in relation to birth period (P for trends <0.001). Overweight, late menopause, and family history of breast cancer were significantly associated with breast cancer among Chinese women.Breast cancer incidence was associated with nulliparity and history of breastfeeding. Population attributable risks should be assessed, especially for more developed areas and young women. The effects of body mass index, age at menopause, and family history of breast cancer should be given priority during assessment of breast cancer risk among Chinese women.
“You” and “I” need to talk about “us”: Linguistic patterns in marital interactions

Links between pronoun use, relationship satisfaction, and observed behavior were examined during 2 problem-solving interactions in which 134 distressed and 48 nondistressed couples participated. Results supported hypotheses that distressed and nondistressed couples would use pronouns at significantly different rates, and that rates would also differ for partners depending on whose topic was being discussed. Actor–partner interdependence models (APIMs; D. A. Kenny, 1996) revealed actor and partner effects of pronoun use on satisfaction and observed positivity and negativity. Interestingly, I-focus pronouns were found to be linked with satisfaction in distressed partners and dissatisfaction in nondistressed partners. The pattern of findings was otherwise largely consistent across topics and levels of distress. These findings have implications for both future research and clinical interventions.

Conversion of Carbon Dioxide to Metabolites by &amp;lt;i&amp;gt;Clostridium acetobutylicum&amp;lt;/i&amp;gt; KCTC1037 Cultivated with Electrochemical Reducing Power

In this research, metabolic fixation of CO2 by growing cells of C. acetobutylicum cultivated with electrochemical reducing power was tested on the basis of the metabolites production and genes expression. In cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical oxidation and reduction reaction of neutral red (NR) immobilized in intact cells of C. acetobutylicum was stationarily repeated like the soluble one in the condition without CO2 but the electrochemical reduction reaction was selectively increased by addition of CO2. In electrochemical bioreactor, the modified graphite felt cathode with NR (NR-cathode) induced C. acetobutylicum to generate acetate, propionate, and butyrate from CO2 in defined medium. When H2 and CO2 were used as an electron donor and an electron acceptor, respectively, C. acetobutylicum also produced the same metabolites in a defined medium. C. acetobutylicum was not grown in the defined medium without substituted electron donors (H2 or electrochemical reducing power). C. acetobutylicum cultivated with electrochemical reducing power produced more butyrate than acetate in complex medium but produced more acetate than butyrate in defined medium. The genes of encoding the enzymes catalyzing acetyl-CoA in C. acetobutylicum electrochemically cultivated in defined medium than conventionally cultivated in complex medium. These results are a clue that C. acetobutylicum may metabolically convert CO2 to metabolites and produce free energy from the electrochemical reducing power.
The Effect of Autologous Protein Solution on the Inflammatory Cascade in Stimulated Equine Chondrocytes

Cartilage injury occurs commonly in equine athletes, often precipitating posttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA). Orthobiologics such as autologous conditioned serum (ACS) and autologous protein solution (APS) may be useful in decreasing posttraumatic inflammation, thereby preventing PTOA. The objective of this study was to quantify cytokine concentrations in ACS and APS and evaluate the protective effects of ACS and APS on inflamed chondrocytes cultured in vitro. We hypothesized that the combination of platelet-derived growth factors (PDGF) and anti-inflammatory cytokines present in APS would be superior in decreasing the inflammatory and catabolic cascade in inflamed chondrocytes when compared to ACS in which platelets are excluded from the preparation. Chondrocytes were isolated from the cartilage of femoral trochlear ridges of 6 horses and cultured in 12-well transwell plates. Treatment groups included: (1) control, (2) APS (Pro-Stride; Owl Manor), and (3) ACS (IRAP II; Arthrex). Each group was unstimulated or stimulated with IL-1β and TNF-α for 48 h. The concentration of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, MMP-3, MMP-13, and IL-10 was quantified using a fluorescent bead-based multiplex assay. IL-1Ra concentration was quantified using ELISA. APS and ACS both had significantly increased concentrations of IL-1Ra without a concurrent increase in IL-1β concentration. After 48 h of culture, media from chondrocytes treated with APS contained significantly increased concentrations of IL-1Ra and IL-10. APS-treated cultures had increased concentrations of IL-6. Overall, APS effectively concentrated IL-1Ra without an incubation period and media from APS-treated chondrocytes had increased concentrations of chondroprotective (IL-1Ra and IL-10) and modulatory (IL-6) cytokines, which may be beneficial in the treatment of inflammatory conditions such as PTOA.

A novel finite volume based formulation for the elasto-plastic analysis of plates

Abstract In this paper, a novel finite volume formulation for the elasto-plastic analysis of Mindlin–Reissner plates is proposed. A layered approach is adopted which enables to monitor the evolution of the through-thickness plasticity. For the solution of the discretized equations, two different incremental solution algorithms are implemented. The proposed method is validated through a series of benchmark comparisons. It is observed that the results obtained are in good agreement with the reference results. It is also demonstrated that the proposed finite volume based formulation has good capabilities in dealing with the plastic modeling of very thin to moderately thick plates.
Alpine Social Innovation Strategy

ASIS project objective is to initiate, develop and promote a new vision of innovation in the Alpine space area that is Social Innovation (SI), in order to increase the innovation capacity of Alpine space regions by answering to the new challenges. ASIS means “Alpine Social Innovation Strategy”. ASIS consortium would like to develop a new approach of innovation that really answers to economic and societal challenges met by each Alpine region. Alpine space (ASP) is a really dynamic territory in term of research, innovative projects and SI initiatives, but shows limited inter-Alpine cooperation and significant regional and social disparities. Then, as all European regions, the ASP area meets crucial challenges, like climate change, socio-demographic changes, migrations, economic disparities. Technological innovation cannot itself answers to all the economic and social challenges of the ASP area anymore. SI is considered as a crucial soft location factor for generations and economic development. SI creates the human potential and capacity for technological and service innovation and is a driver for wellbeing. For that, it has become necessary to carry out the following actions: to develop public policies and an adequate ecosystem capable of providing effective support for SI (GECES report, European Commission, 10/2016) & to promote a shift from a project-based approach to long-term strategies that include SI. ASIS project desires to boost a real change and will develop an improved cooperation between ASP innovation kew actors, better adapted answers to societal ASP challenges and new knowledges & skills of public authorities, business support organisations & sectoral agencies levels. To support this change, ASIS will propose new tools and methodologies, an innovative platform, new strategic policies & recommendations to public actors through a white book, Simulation models & many other materials. SIS new strategy will use findings of existing ASP projects & SI research.
Fuzzy time series model for Egypt Gold Reserves forecasting based on fuzzy clustering

Fuzzy time series models have been used widely during the last decade. Such models have the ability to deal with historical data that are given in the form of linguistic values that can not be handled using traditional times series models. Fuzzy time series models have been used successfully in various problems such as: university enrolment, stock indices, and temperature prediction. In this paper, a fuzzy time series model based on fuzzy clustering is presented. This model is an enhanced version of original model proposed by the authors in [1], [2]. The newly proposed model has been used to forecast the Egypt Gold Reserves based on official data starting from the first quarter of 2002 up to the first quarter of 2010. The comparison result with other fuzzy time series models as well as the traditional ARIMA model shows that the proposed model provides higher accuracy and efficient performance.

PROmoting security and safeTy by crEating a MED clUster on Maritime Surveillance

The Mediterranean Sea constitutes a cross road of continents and the main link among EU countries, Asia and Middle East, baring a huge load of maritime activities that need to be monitored in an efficient way. Maritime Surveillance (MS) aims at providing to the involved key actors the necessary methods and systems to achieve effective data exchange concerning various maritime risks and sectors (Port control, piracy, pollution and trafficking monitoring, border control, defense, fisheries controls). An important issue within MS is the existence of communication and regulatory gaps that can lead to serious loss of time in case of emergency. PROteuS project aims at exploiting the growth potential of the emerging Maritime Surveillance industry that can play a crucial role in the socio-economic development of MED area and in the generation of new job opportunities. This objective will be addressed through the establishment of a MED MS Cluster, fostering innovation and R&D capacities, knowledge and technology transfer, as well as transnational cooperation among the involved key MS actors, focusing on maritime security and safety mechanisms in MED area. The Cluster will offer customized services in order to identify and exploit technologies related to MS and will achieve transferability through the creation of concrete linkages with other Blue Growth sectors that face common challenges and growth opportunities.
