Authors: Carvalho Agnaldo DF , Madeira Nuno R , Silva Giovani O
Published: April 2018

ABSTRACT The arracacha is a great economical alternative for Brazilian farmers. The aim of this research was to determine the stability and adaptability of arracacha clones by the methodology of factors analysis and bissegmented regression. Five clones, three cultivars (Amarela de Senador Amaral, BRS Rubia 41 and BRS Catarina 64), and two advanced clones (EH-48 and EH-56) were evaluated in 10 locations in the southern of the Minas Gerais State, Brazil, in the agricultural years 2012/13, 2013/14 and 2015/16. The experimental plots consisted of three random samples within the arracacha observation units. Each sample consisted of five plants collected in sequence, highlighting and weighing commercial roots and transforming the portion of the production data for t ha-1. Individual and joint variance analyzes were performed and, with the adjusted means the Scott-Knott grouping test was done. The bissegmented regression factors were analysed to obtain the stability and adaptability. The EH-56 clone stood out for its productive potential in almost all environments, superior to the other clones. The EH-56 clone stood out as the most suitable through the analysis of factors methodology, while BRS Rubia 41 and BRS Catarina 64 had specific adaptation to some environments and Amarela de Senador Amaral, variety that has been multiplied locally by farmers for over 15 years is little adapted. By bissegmented regression, no clone had ideal behavior. However, BRS Rubia 41 stands out for good adaptation in favorable environments. The analysis of factors associated to the bissegmented regression allows better accuracy in the response of arracacha clones to stability and adaptability.

ABSTRACT Camila potato, registered and protected as BRS F63, is a cultivar for the fresh market, with oval tubers of attractive appearance, having shallow eyes, yellow and smooth skin, and light yellow flesh. It presents medium specific gravity (dry matter), which allows greater culinary versatility than ‘Agata’. Cooked tubers have a firm texture and distinctive flavor, with potential for use even in gourmet kitchen, for preparing salads and other similar dishes. The vegetative growth cycle and dormancy are medium. It presents high productive potential, with high percentage of marketable tubers. It is moderately resistant to greening. Concerning physiological disorders in the tubers, ‘BRS F63’ (Camila) is similar to ‘Agata’ and ‘Asterix’ in crops of subtropical ecosystem, but the incidence increases in plantations outside the Winter crop in tropical ecosystem. It is moderately susceptible to Phytophthora infestans and Alternaria spp., which can be managed effectively with fungicides. It has extreme resistance to virus Y (Ry sto ), which reduces the loss of seed quality, allowing more generations of multiplication.

Bullying e preconceito: a atualidade da barbárie
Authors: CHAVES DENISE RAISSA LOBATO , SOUZA MAURICIO RODRIGUES DE
Published: April 2018

RESUMO Entre os tipos de violência que ocorrem no contexto escolar, destaca-se o bullying. Esse fenômeno é composto de violência física e psicológica realizadas intencionalmente contra um indivíduo específico considerado frágil e inferior pelo agressor. Assim, o bullying proporciona consequências negativas de curto e longo prazo a todos os envolvidos e apresenta-se potencialmente relacionado à negação e não aceitação do outro. Diante disso, esta pesquisa, de cunho teórico, objetiva analisar as limitações conceituais do bullying. E, para tal, utiliza como principal referência a teoria crítica da sociedade - mais especificamente as ideias de Theodor Adorno e Max Horkheimer sobre educação, emancipação e preconceito. Em conclusão, denuncia a naturalização do bullying e a alienação ao conceito, revelando-o como uma nova forma de barbárie que perdura nos dias de hoje.

Published: April 2018

RESUMO Com base em relatos autobiográficos de um grupo de sete mulheres professoras da educação básica que em algum momento assumiram-se lésbicas, discute-se, valendo-se de discursos de gênero, como elas produzem a docência e o currículo. Como referências, utiliza-se a noção de experiência de Walter Benjamin, Giorgio Agamben e Jorge Larrosa, que inspirou a coleta e a análise das narrativas. Aliam-se a esses estudos as contribuições de Michel Foucault acerca da sexualidade e do cuidado de si e a crítica de Judith Butler ao sistema corpo/sexo/gênero. Conclui-se que as experiências das professoras como lésbicas nas escolas produzem uma pedagogia que atua não apenas como questionamento dos padrões heteronormativos, mas como uma produção de conhecimento próprio pela qual elas reinventam suas identidades como professoras.

Este artículo tuvo como objetivo analizar la autotomía caudal como estrategia gerencial para el cambio organizacional en empresas familiares del municipio Maracaibo del estado Zulia. Se definió como un estudio empírico-analítico-positivista de tipo analítico, explicativo no experimental, transeccional y de campo. Se diseñaron dos (2) instrumentos, uno para cada variable y aplicado a una población de treinta (30) gerentes en ocho (8) entidades; dichos cuestionarios tuvieron treinta y tres ítems para la variable autotomía caudal y cuarenta y dos (42) para cambio organizacional, ambos con cinco alternativas de escala tipo Likert. Su validez fue confirmada por siete (7) expertos en el área y luego se pasó una prueba piloto en doce (12) sujetos que representan la muestra de la población donde finalmente se aplicó. Seguidamente se realizó el cálculo del coeficiente Alpha Cronbach, y se obtuvo como resultado 0.864, que es altamente confiable. Así, queda en evidencia que en las etapas de transformación la “situación amenaza” es el primer proceso que enfrentan los gerentes en el proceso de transformación, seguido de la “renovación”, “dolor” y “desprendimiento”. Se concluye que las etapas de transformación en los contextos estudiados, la situación amenaza forma parte de los aspectos del ambiente que pueden llegar a constituir un peligro para el logro de los objetivos de las empresas familiares, aun cuando se considera un acto social o fenómeno natural que se manifiesta en el entorno de ellas mismas.ABSTRACTThis article aimed to analyze the flow autotomy as a management strategy for organizational change in family businesses in the city of Maracaibo, Zulia state.

Published: April 2018

Las organizaciones buscan ocupar un lugar privilegiado en el mercado, a través de diferentes estrategias que implementan de acuerdo a su experiencia. Esta meta no es fácil, teniendo en cuenta que ellas enfrentan grandes retos como es el de sobresalir en un mercado que se encuentra altamente competitivo, y en ocasiones no contando con todos los recursos financieros para poder implementar todas las estrategias posibles. Adicionalmente las altas tasas impositivas restan capacidad de desarrollo a las mismas. El presente artículo tuvo como objetivo generar ventajascompetitivas a través de la gestión tributaria en las pymes del sector comercial de la ciudad de Barranquilla. El enfoque utilizado en la investigación es cualitativo, de tipo descriptivo, utilizando como técnica la entrevista para la recolección de la información. Los resultados muestran que las pymes aplican una gestión tributaria de manera tangencial e informal sin contar con una planificación adecuada, dejando de lado el hecho que todas las dependencias de la organización deben aportar valor para la misma. Se concluye que la gestión tributaria debe estar alineada a laplaneación estratégica de la organización, contextualizando las estrategias utilizadas al área, con el fin de generar ventajas competitivas para la organización.

Published: April 2018

The paper presents results of a research on personality characteristics that shape the core of professionalism in social services specialists. The research was carried out within the paradigm of the systems approach. We discuss the structure and relationship between the components of social and pedagogical competence within the framework of Russian psychological concept of integral individuality. We emphasize that competency as a potential ability implies the specialist’s readiness for professional activity, and that the integration of several competencies in a multi-level system of his/her personality characteristics appears as the individual’s competence in professional activity. System interrelations between the components are regarded as outcomes of the specialist’s professional development. We describe the conceptual model of social and pedagogical competence and argue that one of the important factors in its development is the individual’s image of the future and the notion of time perspective as a feature of tolerance for uncertainty.

Identifying Risk Factors for Healthcare-Associated Infections Caused by Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
Authors: Sultan Amira M. , Seliem Wael A.
Published: April 2018

Objectives: Acinetobacter baumannii is a causative pathogen of various healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) and is particularly prevalent in high-risk hospital settings. This study aimed to determine risk factors associated with HAIs caused by carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii (CRAB) in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Methods: This prospective study was performed between January 2013 and June 2014 among NICU patients at the Mansoura University Children’s Hospital, Mansoura, Egypt. Neonates who developed HAIs due to CRAB were assigned to a case group, while those infected with carbapenem-sensitive A. baumannii (CSAB) were assigned to a control group. Results: Among the 124 neonates who developed A. baumannii-caused HAIs during the study period, 91 (73.4%) were caused by CRAB and 33 (26.6%) were caused by CSAB. Prematurity, premature rupture of the membranes (PROM), a previous stay in another hospital, prolonged NICU stay, the presence of invasive devices, previous exposure to carbapenems or aminoglycosides and prolonged antibiotic therapy before infection were significantly associated with CRAB-caused HAIs. A multivariate logistic regression analysis identified prematurity (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 25.3; P <0.01), mechanical ventilation (aOR = 18.9; P <0.01) and the previous use of carbapenems (aOR = 124.7; P <0.01) or aminoglycosides (aOR = 22.6; P = 0.04) to be independent risk factors for CRAB infections. Conclusion: Various risk factors were significantly associated with CRAB-caused HAIs among the studied NICU patients.

Published: April 2018

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the role of a clinical pharmacist intervention in decreasing subsequent clinical and drug-related problems (DRPs) among coronary heart disease (CHD) inpatients with at least one previous DRP. Methods: This pre-experimental study with a pre-post design was carried out from January to April 2017 among inpatients with at least one previous DRP at a general hospital in Tangerang District, Banten, Indonesia. Clinical and DRPs were documented prospectively by a clinical pharmacist, with DRPs classified using Version 6.2 of the DRP classification scheme of the Pharmaceutical Care Network Europe Foundation. The intervention consisted of a discussion of identified DRPs with physicians, patients, pharmaceutical logistics clerks, nurses and nutritionists. Following this, any subsequent clinical and DRPs were re-identified and further interventions were conducted as necessary. Results: A total of 75 inpatients were included in the study. Pre-intervention, there were 443 DRPs and 202 clinical problems. The most frequent DRPs were adverse drug reactions (52.6%), followed by drug effects (41.8%). Most DRPs were of moderate severity and would have resulted in moderate consequences had the pharmacist not intervened. The interventions resulted in a significant reduction in the number of DRPs, type of DRPs and number of clinical problems (P <0.05 each). Patients with complications were 26.047 times more likely to have no reduction or an increased number of clinical problems compared to patients without complications (P <0.05). Conclusion: Clinical pharmacist interventions were found to reduce subsequent DRPs and clinical problems among CHD patients with at least one previous DRP.

Authors: Sarmiento Miguel , Mutis Hernando , Cepeda Andrés , Pérez Juan F.
Published: April 2018

En este artículo se evalúa la eficiencia de la banca colombiana utilizando modelos de frontera no paramétricos. Los resultados indican que la industria bancaria ha presentado una tendencia creciente en su eficiencia, afectada por la crisis financiera global de 2008. A partir de 2009 se observa una rápida recuperación en las medidas de eficiencia, a excepción de la eficiencia en costos, lo cual sugiere que, ante choques externos, los costos de ajuste de la industria bancaria son mayores. Las fusiones y adquisiciones dentro de la industria contribuyen de forma importante al incremento en la eficiencia bancaria.

Este artículo analiza los efectos de bienestar de mejoras en la inversión en educación e infraestructura con participación público-privada, en un marco fiscal de economía pequeña y abierta para la economía colombiana. Se construye un modelo DSGE donde las familias toman decisiones de capital humano y el gobierno financia megaproyectos colocando bonos de infraestructura. Los resultados sugieren mayores efectos en el ajuste de largo plazo y mejoras del bienestar social cuando el gasto público se focaliza en sectores con mayores niveles de empleo y se introducen mejoras tecnológicas y de innovación.
Charakterystyki fizykochemiczne wód obszarów podmokłych w granicach aglomeracji warszawskiej na przykładzie Horowego Bagna i Jeziora Kruczek w gminie Marki
Authors: Grzędzińska Sylwia , Ziułkiewicz Maciej
Published: April 2018

W celu ograniczenia presji i zachowania środowiska przyrodniczego, w najbliższym zapleczu aglomeracji warszawskiej został utworzony Warszawski Obszar Chronionego Krajobrazu (WOCHK). Obejmuje on m.in. tereny leśne okolic Marek, tworzących otulinę obszarów podlegających ściślejszej ochronie, w tym – rezerwatu Horowe Bagno oraz Jeziora Kruczek. Powierzchnia rezerwatu wynosi blisko 44 ha, z czego powierzchnia akwenów powstałych w zagłębieniach potorfowych wynosi około 17,5 ha. Oba obiekty hydrograficzne, ze względu na położenie, znajdują się w zasięgu potencjalnej presji ze strony północno-wschodniej części miasta Marki oraz biegnącej w granicach rezerwatu drogi krajowej nr 631. Ponadto dużym zagrożeniem wydaje się budowa wylotu drogi ekspresowej S8 z Warszawy w kierunku Białegostoku. Niniejsza praca stawia sobie za cel udokumentowanie stanu hydrochemicznego torfowiska Horowe Bagno i Jeziora Kruczek sprzed uruchomienia arterii komunikacyjnej S8. Posłużą do tego celu podstawowe parametry fizykochemiczne wód w obu obiektach: odczyn oraz przewodność elektrolityczna właściwa. Do pomiarów realizowanych w sezonie zimowo-wiosennym 2015/16 wytypowano 6 punktów pomiarowo-kontrolnych, przy czym 2 punkty zlokalizowane były nad brzegiem Jeziora Czarnego, a pozostałe 4 znajdowały się na terenie rezerwatu Horowe Bagno. We wstępnym etapie prac badawczych dokonano identyfikacji wielkości presji antropogenicznej na obszarze gminy Marki przy wykorzystaniu metody autorstwa Nachlik (2006). Stwierdzono, że w zakresie gospodarki wodno-ściekowej nie istnieją istotne zagrożenia dla środowiska wodnego. Uzyskane wyniki wskazują, że torfowisko Horowe Bagno można zaliczyć do wysokich pod względem odczynu wód i przejściowych pod względem PEW. Torfowisko i jezioro reprezentują dwa odmienne obiekty hydrochemiczne, co jest prawdopodobnie spowodowane charakterem zlewni i strukturą alimentacji: różnym udziałem zasilania wodami meteorycznymi i gruntowymi. Jednym istotnym obecnie przejawem antropopresji jest przenikanie ścieków opadowych z drogi nr 631. Może się ono istotnie zwiększyć po uruchomieniu przylegającego do torfowiska odcinka S8, zwłaszcza bez podjęcia odpowiednich rozwiązań ochronnych.
Analiza morfometryczna węzła dolinnego Warty, Widawki i Grabi z wykorzystaniem algorytmu ISODATA
Authors: Szczypiorowski Maciej
Published: April 2018

W artykule przedstawiono próbę zastosowania metod GIS do automatycznego wyznaczenia form ukształtowania terenu na obszarze węzła dolinnego tworzonego przez Wartę, Widawkę i Grabię. Podstawę analizy stanowi numeryczny model terenu wykonany w oparciu o mapy topograficzne w skali 1:10 000 oraz jego pochodne. Wykonane na podstawie cyfrowego modelu terenu mapy zostały przetworzone przy użyciu algorytmu ISODATA w celu klasyfikacji cech morfometrycznych terenu. W oparciu o pochodne numerycznego modelu terenu zostały wyznaczone formy rzeźby. Wyznaczone formy terenu zostały zaprezentowane na mapie morfometrycznej. W celu weryfikacji wydzielonych form zestawiono je ze szkicami geomorfologicznymi obszaru wykonanym podczas opracowywania szczegółowych map geologicznych. Zestawienie to potwierdziło poprawność większości wydzielonych form oraz ich znaczne zróżnicowanie przestrzenne. Różnice w powierzchniach i lokalizacji form terenu zaprezentowano w formie szeregu map.

The Orphic Theogonic Poems Attributed to Linos. Notes on the Testimony of Pausanias
Authors: Sobolewska Mariola
Published: April 2018

I will discuss the connection between Linos and Orphics as it is outlined in the Description of Greece. Pausanias writes that Linos propagated in his songs the genealogy of the first deities of the Greek pantheon. According to Pausanias, this genealogy was similar to the one in Hesiod’s Theogony. Pausanias himself believed that the majority of Linos’ works were inauthentic. He was of the opinion that if Linos wrote anything, none of it has survived. However, no one has tried to explain why so many works were attributed to Linos. In my article I try to answer to this question.
Impact of seed size on seeds viability, vigor and storability of Hordeum vulgare (L.)
Authors: Massimi M.
Published: April 2018

Seed size may influence seed germination, and seedling vigor. Few investigations are available about the effect of seed size on barley seedling vigor in Jordan. The present study was designed to investigate the impact of seed size on germination percentage, seedling dry weight, seedling vigor index, and germination percentage after accelerated aging in barley. Three seed sizes i.e. large, medium, and small (having diameter of > 2.75 millimeter, 2.5 - 2.75 millimeter, and less than 2.5 millimeter, respectively) were tested in the experiment. Seed quality for different seed size categories was evaluated in the laboratory by measuring seed germination, germination after accelerated aging, as well seedling dry weight and vigor index. Results showed significant differences for large seeds in germination percentages, seedling dry weight and vigor index. It may be concluded that large seed size of barley showed best quality.

A field experiment was conducted during the Kharifseason of 2012 to study the response of black gram (Vignamungo L. Hepper) to different spacing and fertilizer doses under rainfed conditions.Maintaining a wider spacing of 30×10 cm (S2) was found to increase uptake of nutrients P and K by the crop resulting in significantly higher number of leaves, branches and pods per plant respectively, thereby registering the highest grain and stover yields of 730 kg/ha and 1382 kg/ha respectively. Among the fertilizer dose, F2 (N10P40K20 + FYM@ 5 t/ha) was found to increase theavailability of NPK by the crop resulting in significantly superior growth attributes viz., plant height, number of leaves and branches/plant and leaf area index (LAI) ultimately recording maximum number of pods/plant, test weight and grain yield of 725 kg/ha. Whereas, the fertilizer dose F3 (N20P50K30) was found to record the highest stover yield of 1362 kg/ha.

A field experiment was carried out at Instructional-cum-farm, Assam Agricultural University, Jorhatduring kharif 2015. The experiment was laid out in split-plot design replicated thrice with four sowing dates in main plots viz., 1May, 11 May, 21and 31May along with combination of two methods of sowing viz., direct seeding and transplanting as well as with two nutrient management practices RDF and INM package in sub-plots. Results revealed that May 11date recorded significantly higher in almost all the growth and yield attributing parameters followed by May 1. The highest grain (40.24 q/ha) and straw (68.07 q/ha) yields were obtained in May 11 sown crop and was significantly superior to that of May 21and May 31. Between the two methods of sowing, transplantingresulted significantly superior in regards to almost all the growth, yield attributes and yield of sali rice. The increase in grain yield under transplanting over direct seeding was4.90 per cent. The corresponding increase in straw yield was 4.31 per cent In respect of nutrient management; INM resulted in higher grain and straw yieldsover RDF. From the economic point of view May 11 sown crop recorded the highest net return (. 57625.00/ha) with B:C ratio of 1.57 whereas in case of methods of sowing and nutrient management practices, direct seeding and INM practice recorded the highest net return and B:C ratio.
Correlation and path analysis studies for parents and F1crosses in barnyard millet (Echinochloa frumentaceae (Roxb.) Link) for nutritional characters
Authors: Vishnuprabha R. , Vanniarajan C.
Published: April 2018

Association analysis was studied in twenty F1 crosses and five parents of barnyard millet to find out the association of nutrient characters and their direct and indirect effects on single plant yield. The results exhibited that the nutrient traits are inter-related and improvement of yield will bring about the simultaneous improvement of the nutrient characters also. Total phenols and iron content recorded moderate positive direct effects on single plant yield. Total anti-oxidant activity and zinc content had low negative direct effects on single plant yield that were neutralized by positive indirect effects of other traits. The analysis revealed that the improvement of yield will simultaneously bring improvement on total phenols and iron content directly and on total anti-oxidant activity and zinc content indirectly.

So far, research has been conducted to know the effect of cattle manure fertilizer on growth and yield of carrot under Jimma condition. Experiment was conducted at Jimma University College of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine at horticulture garden during 2016 cropping season under irrigation condition. Experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design and cattle manure applications with four treatments (0, 5, 10 and 18 tons per hectare) were used. Each treatment was replicated three times. Data was collected from five randomly taken plants per plot. The finding revealed that application of cattle manure on carrot showed a highly significant effect for growth parameters (plant height, canopy diameter, root length and root diameter). Application of cattle manure at 10 tons ha-1 increased carrot root weight by 48.8 % compared to the non-fertilized control treatment. Therefore, this finding would be a base for future research to be conducted.
