Authors: Situmorang Hannah
Published: September 2022

Mathematics is one of the compulsory subjects given to students. However, several studies show that elementary school students still have difficulty in learning mathematics, causing very low learning outcomes. One effort that can be done is to use a variety of other learning methods that can increase students' interest in learning mathematics. This study aims to improve the learning outcomes of mathematics in elementary school students by applying the Rewards and Punishments method. This study uses a quantitative approach with the correlational method. The sample in this study was the third-grade students of HKBP No.1 Sibolga Private Elementary School, which amounted to 32 students who were determined by using a random sampling technique. Data collection techniques in this study are questionnaires and documentation studies. The results of this study indicate that the results of the correlation test prove that there is a relationship between reward and punishment on student learning outcomes. This shows that there is an effect of reward and punishment on student learning outcomes in grade III SD HKBP No.1 Sibolga. The conclusion of this research is that the Rewards and Punishments method is proven to be effective in improving student learning outcomes in mathematics subjects.

Thought/Translation and the Situations of Decolonization
Authors: Davari Arash , Saffari Siavash ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: September 2022

Known as a revolutionary ideologue and a religious reformer, Ali Shariati’s activities as a translator have not garnered substantial scholarly attention. We reconstruct a history of Shariati’s translations, situating these endeavors at the center of his intellectual project. Shariati’s thought itself, we show, is a form of translation in the service of decolonization. This history reveals a nascent theory of decolonization as open-ended and indeterminate. We advance this claim by staging a conversation between Shariati’s reflections on decolonization and Morad Farhadpour’s evolving concept of thought/translation, a dissident theory of translation influential in contemporary Iran that bears resemblance to Shariati’s performative works. More than an abstruse debate in Iranian intellectual history, these continuities raise questions of pressing concern for postcolonial states, in particular the specificity of local situations as they relate to ongoing global hierarchies.

Sadly, the victimization of Native Americans is not new. At a House hearing in 2019, Tamra “Tami” Nagle and Sarah Deer testified on the historical mistreatment of Native people, which has included abduction, assault, and murder. Both spoke of their hope that recent attention on the crisis of missing and murdered indigenous persons (MMIP) would bring needed change.The “recent attention” they mentioned began in the US government in 2015. While not focused on MMIP, a Senate hearing addressed the needs of victims of crime in Indian country. This hearing highlighted the high rates of violent crime victimization, inadequacies of current criminal justice systems, and difficulties faced by Native Americans.

METABOLOMIC APPROACHES APPLIED TO THE STUDY OF CERVICAL CANCER: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW
Authors: Almeida Natalia Damasceno , Matos Marcos Almeida , Brito Milena Bastos , Souza Amancio Jose de
Published: September 2022

Background: Cervical cancer (CC) is the fourth leading cause of cancer among women in the world. Metabolomics can provide a deeper understanding of the underlying metabolic alterations associated with its pathophysiology.

Objective: To systematically analyze metabolomic approaches and findings used in the study of cervical cancer.

Selection Criteria: Studies that included the use of metabolomics, obtained through biological samples, from patients diagnosed with CC.

Data collection and Analysis: The review was conducted according to the PRISMA guidelines, and registered in PROSPERO. The terms of Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) and Health Sciences Descriptors (DeCS) corresponding to “Metabolomics” and “Cervical Cancer” were used as descriptors. Article quality was reviewed based on the QUADOMICS criteria.

Results: A total of 17 articles were selected for systematic review. Study quality evaluation using QUADOMICS demonstrated heterogeneous results. The main changes in metabolite levels associated with cervical cancer were identified in alanine, creatine, valine, tyrosine, isoleucine, phosphatidylcholine, acetate, lactate and β-glucose. Some amino acid levels were reduced in patients with CC and changes in energy metabolism pathways were observed. Eight articles tested the diagnostic capacity of metabolomics, obtaining results for sensitivity > 90%, specificity between 73% and 99% and AUC between 0.78 and 0.99.

Conclusion: The results suggest that patients with CC present alterations in energy metabolism, amino acids and glycerolphospholipids, pointing to a potential group of specific biomarkers.
Some General Intercultural Reflections on Climate Change
Authors: VAREIKIS ŽILVINAS
Published: September 2022

The author of the article analyses the problem of climate change by comparing the philosophical ideas of the leading figure of Chinese Daoism Laozi and the German philosopher Norbert Bolz. The article highlights the complexity, relevance and interdisciplinarity of the problem. It is assumed that the focus on the problem of climate change is closely linked to changes in the social structure of the Western society and the controversial technological progress that has already made it possible to capture the signs of global warming in nature. At the same time, the problem of climate change is seen as a conflict of different interpretations. For this reason, emphasis is placed on the need for a dialogue between specialists in natural and social sciences as well as humanities in addressing issues arising from the latter problem.

Privacy, Publicity and Gender in Amsterdam’s Early Modern Urban Space
Authors: Pierik Bob
Published: September 2022

This article considered the layers of publicity and privacy in urban space in Amsterdam through conflicts from notarial depositions. It explores and describes the everyday culture of transparency and its relative openness, in which the practices of movement within, through, and around the house were mediated by gender, class, and materiality. It considers how despite the relative openness of homes, demarcations were not absent in early modern cities, but followed a different spatial logic than we know today. Through the concept of practices of gatekeeping, privacy and publicity are not considered as absolute opposites, but rather as powers that can be at work in the same place, allowing for a more multi-layered perspective on urban space. Through this lens, this article considers different ways in which women and men of different social status claimed and negotiated publicity and privacy in everyday life, on the doorsteps of their houses, in the alleys were they lived and away from their homes. By turning to snapshots of street life, it shows how these negotiations were influenced by both social-cultural attitudes and the materiality of urban life in the form of doors, raised doorsteps and windows. Finally, it considers how although both publicity and privacy were forces at work in the street and in houses, a more complete form of secrecy and privacy required mobilities of a larger scope, as people moved outside the city or at least to its fringes. Behaviour that one wanted to keep secret would, under most circumstances, have required the necessary mobility to stay secret, and the spatial constellation of privacy was often directed outwards rather than inwards.
Writing in Privacy to Mass Publics
Authors: Bebnowski David
Published: September 2022

The relationship between authors and their readers can be understood in terms of a dialectic between privacy and publicity, in that written media are consumed privately but at the same time constitute the foundation of publics. In this relationship, the literary format of the pamphlet, understood as a short form that expresses protest, is unique in that its function and content in voicing protest remain remarkably stable over time. Due to this stability in content, the format is able to change and be present in different media landscapes. Because of these traits, the pamphlets and pamphleteers referenced in this essay will be used as probes to fathom the historical dialectic between publicity and privacy. By drawing on pamphlets written by reformer Martin Luther at the onset of print publics, literary figure Émile Zola in developed mass publics governed by newspapers as leading media, and German footballer Mesut Özil as a public figure in digital publics, this paper intends to illustrate the relationship between pamphleteers and publics across time both historically and theoretically. This will demonstrate how pamphlets can be perceived as a becoming public of the private intentions of its pamphleteers in a very direct way. At the same time, they help us to understand who turns to pamphleteering and under which circumstances. Conversely, an analysis of pamphlets and their respective pamphleteers shows their historical boundedness as historic figures and is thus indicative of changing publics. Furthermore, studying pamphlets and pamphleteering invites us to conduct further research into the formation of public opinion and the nature of the democratic demos as an entity that shows deep fractures over time.
Substitution – en løsning på rekrutteringsudfordringer i produktions-Danmark?
Authors: Fjalland Lars , Hegelund Peter
Published: September 2022

Virksomhederne i en række kommuner i provinsen oplever store udfordringer med at skaffe kvalificeret arbejdskraft. Konsekvensen er nu, at de siger nej til ordrer eller udflytter opgaver til andre dele af Danmark – eller til udlandet. Inden da har virksomhederne ofte brugt alle værktøjerne i værktøjskassen for enten at tiltrække eller fastholde medarbejdere. Det er dyrt og tidskrævende. Kan substitution – som foreslået i dette temanummer – være en nøgle til at løse problemerne? Måske. Med afsæt i vores erfaring fra det lokale erhvervsliv i henholdsvis Esbjerg- og Skive-områderne argumenterer vi for, at substitutionsløsningen beror på flere forskellige dimensioner: Et ændret mindset hos virksomhederne løser ikke udfordringen alene. Det er mindst ligeså vigtigt, at de videregående uddannelser øger deres opmærksomhed omkring kandidaternes employability. Og at de højtuddannede vil udvise en højere grad af mobilitet – både fagligt og geografisk. Udflytningerne af statslige styrelser og uddannelsesinstitutioner til provinsen kan være et vigtigt led i den forbindelse.

Redaktionelt forord
Authors: Blok Anders , Henriksen Lasse Folke
Published: September 2022

Den Bæredygtige Stat er titlen på en bog, som Rasmus Willig og undertegnede, Anders Blok, udgav i efteråret 2020 på Hans Reitzels Forlag. Titlen henviser til en international debat i den samfundsfaglige miljøforskning om rammevilkår og muligheder for dét, litteraturen kalder miljøstaten, den grønne stat eller netop den bæredygtige stat. Her er tale om såvel et normativt ideal som et empirisk forskningsbegreb. Overordnet søger begrebet at udmåle distancen mellem staters faktiske natur-, miljø- og klimatiltag og så den voldsomme udfordring, som særligt klima- og biodiversitetskriserne udgør for det 21. århundrede. Med afsæt i vores forskning fremsætter Willig og undertegnede i bogen en sociologisk analyse af denne distance i en nutidig, dansk kontekst. Hermed søger vi samtidig at vække til faglig og offentlig debat om de sociale mulighedsbetingelser for en mere ambitiøs og mere rettidig grøn omstilling.

Social ulighed i adgangen til danske universitetsuddannelser
Authors: Thomsen Jens-Peter
Published: September 2022

I denne artikel giver jeg et overblik over den sociale ulighed i adgangen til universitetsuddannelser i Danmark. Jeg fokuserer på ulighederne i chancer for at opnå en universitetsuddannelse for 35-årige, afhængig af deres sociale baggrund. Artiklen tegner både det brede billede i forhold til adgang til bachelor-, kandidat- og ph.d.-uddannelser, men jeg kigger også specifikt på uligheden i forhold til at opnå bestemte universitetsuddannelser. Jeg finder at der er en betydelig social skævhed i forhold til at opnå en universitetsuddannelse generelt, men at denne skævhed varierer voldsomt på tværs af universitetsinstitutioner og specifikke uddannelser. Unge med akademiker- og arbejderklasseforældre har for eksempel stort set lige stor chancer for at læse Erhvervsøkonomi på Aalborg Universitet, mens Statskundskab på Københavns Universitet er den uddannelse hvor uligheden er allerstørst – den har akademikerbørn 23 gange så mange chancer for at opnå, som arbejderklassebørn har

Competitividad y destinos turísticos sostenibles
Authors: Alonso-Almeida María del Mar , Celemín-Pedroche María Soledad
Published: September 2022

La investigación de los últimos años ha puesto de manifiesto que para que un destino turístico sea competitivo tiene que ser sostenible en sentido económico, medioambiental y social. En la actualidad, en los modelos que analizan la competitividad de los destinos turísticos se hace hincapié en la importancia de los dos últimos aspectos. Este estudio tiene como objetivo el análisis de los principales modelos que se han desarrollado para la medición de la sostenibilidad en el sector turismo. El análisis de estos modelos pone de manifiesto una serie de carencias en las que se profundiza en este estudio. Adicionalmente se analizan las iniciativas que se están desarrollando en destinos tanto maduros como emergentes en términos de sostenibilidad para ser competitivos. Finalmente, en este estudio se concluye que los modelos tienen que ser aplicables en cualquier destino turístico; se destaca la importancia de los intangibles y de las redes sociales como factores potenciales de la sostenibilidad y la necesidad de la integración de los stakeholders y de la Administración pública en la planificación de la sostenibilidad.
Efectos de la publicidad anticipada de productos futuros sobre la actitud del consumidor: un estudio comparativo entre España y Grecia*
Authors: Royo-Vela Marcelo , Faidon Sylvestros Konstantinos
Published: September 2022

El presente análisis exploratorio utilizando un diseño experimental toma como referencia el modelo sobre publicidad anticipada propuesto por Dahlen et al. (2011). El estudio trata de medir, en un contexto intercultural, el efecto potencial de la publicidad de productos futuros sobre el procesamiento y la evaluación del anuncio, la actitud del consumidor hacia la marca, y el modo en que esta influencia puede determinar la intención de compra de los productos no existentes en el mercado. A fin de medir dichos efectos, destacando el efecto moderador potencial de la cultura del país, se utilizaron dos muestras de conveniencia: una de estudiantes griegos, y otra de estudiantes españoles, quienes respondieron a dos cuestionarios en relación a una campaña publicitaria para un coche, con anterioridad y posterioridad al lanzamiento del producto. Además, se utilizaron dos muestras adicionales para ambos países para detectar el efecto potencial de la disponibilidad del producto sobre la anticipación y evaluación del consumidor. Los resultados reflejan que la publicidad de productos futuros genera más incertidumbre que la de los productos actuales, y que los consumidores muestran una mayor anticipación y predisposición hacia el  producto futuro que hacia el actual.
Outcomes and Health Care Service Use in Adults 50 Years or Older With and Without Multiple Sclerosis: A 6-Year Observational Analysis
Authors: Freeman Leorah , Lucas Ashlea , Zhou Jia , Hayward Brooke , Gough Mallory , Livingston Terrie
Published: September 2022

BACKGROUND

Multiple sclerosis (MS) typically presents in young adulthood. Recent data show the highest prevalence of MS in people aged 55 to 64 years; however, there are limited studies of this population.

METHODS

Administrative US claims data from IBM-Truven MarketScan commercial and Medicare databases (2011–2017) were analyzed. People with MS 50 years or older were assigned to the aging MS cohort (n = 10,746). The matched controls were people 50 years or older without MS (n = 10,746). Multivariable models compared outcomes between groups.

RESULTS

Infections were more frequent in the aging MS cohort vs matched controls (61% vs 45%; P < .0001); urinary tract, acute upper respiratory tract, and herpes zoster were the most frequent infection types. Malignancy rates were 20% for both groups (P = .8167); skin, breast, and prostate malignancies were the most frequent types. Skilled nursing facilities (aging MS cohort, 12%; matched controls, 3%; P < .0001) and MRI (aging MS cohort, 87%; matched controls, 37%; P < .0001) were used more frequently in the aging MS cohort; brain and spine were the most frequent types of MRI in the aging MS cohort. Time to first cane/walker or wheelchair use was shorter in the aging MS cohort (cane/walker use: HR, 2.1; 95% CI, 1.9–2.3; P < .0001; wheelchair use: HR, 6.9; 95% CI, 6.0–8.1; P < .0001).

CONCLUSIONS

In people 50 years or older, measures typically associated with worse health primarily resulted from having MS rather than being a consequence of aging alone.
Tokyoids
Authors: Blanciak François
Published: September 2022

A photographic survey of the robotic face of Tokyo buildings and an argument that robot aesthetics plays a central role in architectural history.

In Tokyoids, architect François Blanciak surveys the robotic faces omnipresent in Tokyo buildings, offering an architectural taxonomy based not on the usual variables—size, material, historical style—but on the observable expressions of buildings. Are the eyes (windows) twinkling, the mouth (door) laughing? Is that balcony a howl of distress? Investigating robot aesthetics through his photographs of fifty buildings, Blanciak argues that the robot face originated in architecture—before the birth of robotics—and has played a central role in architectural history.

Blanciak first puts the robot face into historical perspective, examining the importance of the face in architectural theory and demonstrating that the construction of architecture's emblematic portraits triggered the emergence of a robot aesthetics. He then explores the emotions conveyed by the photographed buildings' robot faces, in chapters titled “Awe,” “Wrath,” “Mirth,” “Pain,” “Angst,” and “Hunger.” As he does so he considers, among other things, the architectural relevance of Tokyo's ordinary buildings; the repression of the figural in contemporary architecture; an aesthetic of dismemberment, linked to the structure of the Japanese language and local building design; and the influence of automation technology upon human interaction.

Part photographic survey, part theoretical inquiry, Tokyoids upends the usual approach to robotics in architecture by considering not the automation of architectural output but the aesthetic properties of the robot.
A World in a Shell

Following the trails of Hawai'i's snails to explore the simultaneously biological and cultural significance of extinction.

In this time of extinctions, the humble snail rarely gets a mention. And yet snails are disappearing faster than any other species. In A World in a Shell, Thom van Dooren offers a collection of snail stories from Hawai'i—once home to more than 750 species of land snails, almost two-thirds of which are now gone. Following snail trails through forests, laboratories, museums, and even a military training facility, and meeting with scientists and Native Hawaiians, van Dooren explores ongoing processes of ecological and cultural loss as they are woven through with possibilities for hope, care, mourning, and resilience.

Van Dooren recounts the fascinating history of snail decline in the Hawaiian Islands: from deforestation for agriculture, timber, and more, through the nineteenth century shell collecting mania of missionary settlers, and on to the contemporary impacts of introduced predators. Along the way he asks how both snail loss and conservation efforts have been tangled up with larger processes of colonization, militarization, and globalization. These snail stories provide a potent window into ongoing global process of environmental and cultural change, including the largely unnoticed disappearance of countless snails, insects, and other less charismatic species. Ultimately, van Dooren seeks to cultivate a sense of wonder and appreciation for our damaged planet, revealing the world of possibilities and relationships that lies coiled within a snail's shell.

Recently, deepfake technology has become a popularly used technique for swapping faces in images or videos that create forged data to mislead society. Detecting the originality of the video is a critical process due to the negative pattern of the image. In the detection of forged images or videos, various image processing techniques were implemented. Existing methods are ineffective in detecting new threats or false images. This article has proposed You Only Look Once–Local Binary Pattern Histogram (YOLO-LBPH) to detect fake videos. YOLO is used to detect the face in an image or a frame of a video. The spatial features are extracted from the face image using a EfficientNet-B5 method. Spatial feature extractions are fed as input in the Local Binary Pattern Histogram to extract temporal features. The proposed YOLO-LBPH is implemented using the large scale deepfake forensics (DF) dataset known as CelebDF-FaceForensics++(c23), which is a combination of FaceForensics++(c23) and Celeb-DF. As a result, the precision score is 86.88% in the CelebDF-FaceForensics++(c23) dataset, 88.9% in the DFFD dataset, 91.35% in the CASIA-WebFace data. Similarly, the recall is 92.45% in the Celeb-DF-Face Forensics ++(c23) dataset, 93.76% in the DFFD dataset, and 94.35% in the CASIA-Web Face dataset.

Minneapolis experimentó otro suceso de­vastador: el asesinato de un hombre negro desarmado a manos de la policía en medio del juicio, de interés nacional, del entonces agente de policía Derek Chauvin. Mientras la comunidad continuaba llorando las injusti­cias cometidas contra George Floyd, el 11 de abril de 2021 la agente de policía Amy Potter disparó y mató a Daunte Wright. Para inspi­rar la unidad entre los organizadores de las manifestaciones y los manifestantes, creé una tipografía inspirada en el movimiento por las vidas negras y creé mensajes para unificar aquello por lo que todos estábamos, y seguimos, luchando. Mi trabajo, de código abierto, se utiliza en camisetas, sudaderas con capucha, carteles y pins y se distribuye gratuitamente entre la comunidad gracias a un sistema que organicé. A lo largo de este ensayo visual, hablaré de la importancia de la protesta comunitaria como herramienta para la justicia racial y de cómo el diseño puede ofrecer una oportunidad para apoyar y elevar la voz de las personas negras.

The African baobab (Adansonia digitata L.) is an indigenous fruit tree in the dry savannah areas of sub-Saharan Africa. It is a species of great dietary and nutritional interest. The pulp of the fruit, in addition to being consumed raw or in cold drinks, is used for several others unknown foods in Côte d’Ivoire. Thus, a household survey was conducted in the localities of Korhogo, Séguéla and Bouna with 135 people per locality in order to identify these foods, and then to determine their modes, forms, frequency of consumption and their processes. The data revealed that consumers collect baobab in pods form (79.23-88.81%) in fields (76.15-86.57%) before using pulp in the preparation of 10 local foods with different technologies. Eight of these foods are meals and two are beverages (Zoom-koom and Séladji). Rural populations for its taste and health benefits consume the pulp of baobab fruit. The process of Bacacrou (Sougé-baca, Badégé-baca, Manou-baca and Sougé ni manou-baca) vary according to the practices of each locality. Among meals, Kagbèlè is a specific food of Korhogo while Séla biscuit is more specific to Séguéla, and Tchobal, Zoom-koom and Bafouratou are specific to Bouna. Sougé-baca and Séladji appears as the most known foods with a percentage of knowledge of 68.39 and 53.35 respectively, and the most consumed dishes precisely at breakfast and at the Muslim jêun break with 3 to 4 times per month as frequency of consumption. For a better promotion of these foods, it is essential to know their biochemical and nutritional composition.

Gel electrophoresis technique is an indispensable tool in biotechnology and among other related fields for separation of nucleic acids and proteins. This study determined the potential of selected cassava and sweet potato starch in the separation of DNA as alternative to agarose gel. The sample pH, gelling temperature and time were determined by Light transmittance method proposed by Craig et al. [1] Standard electrophoresis procedure was used for the starch gel electrophoresis. The result showed that composite starch gelled within 18-21 minutes while agarose and agar-agar gelled after 12 minutes.  Cassava starch blended with agar-agar gelled at a temperature of 58oC while sweet potato starch blended with agar-agar gelled between 35oC - 47oC. Agarose and agar-agar maintained 54oC and 53oC respectively. There was no significant difference (P > 0.05) in pH value of the composite starch when compared to 1% agarose gel. Unblended starch samples did not form solid gel except when blended with some amount of agar-agar or agarose powder. Cassava and sweet potato composite starch formed good gel strength at 3% (2.2 g of starch and 0.8 g of agar-agar) but solid gel at 4% (3.6 g of starch and 0.8 g of agar-agar). This study demonstrated the possibilities for agarose cost reduction by 60% when cassava starch (3.6 g) was blended with 0.4 g of agarose. The cassava composite starch (4%) separated DNA molecules comparably to that of 1% agarose. Therefore, the use of these cheaper, accessible and readily available blended starch sources is highly recommended for separation of biomolecules such as DNA.

Capital structure is an essential managerial decision as it shows how well an entity can harness available resources to achieve desirable results. This study examined the relationship between capital structure (CS) and corporate financial performance (CFP) of deposit money banks (DMBs) listed on the Nigerian Stock Exchange. The study also examined the moderating effect of board diligence on the relationship between CS and CFP. The study used the ex post facto research design and data from thirteen (13) DMBs over the period 2010 to 2018, and multiple regression was used to analysed the data. The results revealed a negative and insignificant relationship between debt ratio and return on assets (ROA), a negative and insignificant relationship between debt ratio and net profit margin (NPM), and a positive and significant relationship between equity ratio and ROA. It further revealed a positive and significant relationship between equity ratio and NPM. Firm size had a significant, positive relationship with firm performance, while firm age was negatively related to both ROA and NPM. The results further showed that board diligence positively moderates the relationship between capital structure (CS) and financial performance (CFP) in the banking industry. The study therefore concluded that the relationship between debt and CFP is negative though statistically insignificant, whereas the relationship between equity and CFP is positive. and statistically significant.. The implications of these results are that banks should emphasise more on equity capital than debt capital in their capital structure decisions, and boards must be allowed to play their role to foster healthy financial performance.

A fertilizer experiment was conducted on wheat (GW 366) during Rabi session 2020-21 and 2021-22 under all India Coordinative Research Project on Long Term Fertilizer Experiment at College of Agriculture, Jawaharlal Nehru Krishi Vishwa Vidyalaya, Jabalpur, to study the effect of long-term application of fertilizers and manure on growth, yield attributes and yield of wheat. Eight treatments comprised of T1 (50% NPK), T2 (100% NPK), T3 (150% NPK), T4 (100% NP), T5 (100% N), T6 (100% NPK + FYM), T7 (100% NPK - S) and T8 (Control) were replicated four times in a randomized block design. The application of 50% NPK, 100% NPK and 150% NPK successively and significantly increased plant height, number of tillers plant-1, number of effective tillers plant-1, number of grains spike-1 and grain yield. While the test weight and straw yield at 150% NPK was found significantly superior to 50% NPK but it was found at par with 100% NPK in both the cases. The application of 100% NPK was found significant over 100% NPK - S for grain yield. The application of 100% NPK + FYM significantly increased the plant height, number of tillers plant-1, number of effective tillers plant-1, number of grains spike-1, test weight, grain and straw yield over 100% NPK, 100% NPK - S, 100% NP and 100% N, but it was found at par with 150% NPK for all the growth and yield attributes. Growth and yield attributes were found significantly and positively correlated with grain and straw yield of wheat.
