Patterns of Nectar Production in Asclepias curassavica (Apocynaceae))
Authors: Broyles Steven
Published: July 2021

Milkweeds are important nectar resources for insects in the New World. In addition, nectar is the germination medium for milkweed pollen. This study is the first controlled, greenhouse examination of patterns of nectar production in a milkweed species. We measured nectar volume, concentration, and mg of sugar in the pantropical, weedy milkweed Asclepias curassavica. Our results show that A. curassavica secretes nectar primarily during daylight hours and it continues at a constant daily rate for four to five days. Freshly secreted nectar is lower in sugar concentration than older nectar. This provides an opportunity for milkweed pollen to germinate throughout the day, but pollen germination could be inhibited at times when the sugar concentration increases. Nectar production in A. curassavica is adapted to attract diurnal insect pollinators over several days and to allow pollen germination to occur quickly. Significant differences in nectar production exist among plants and among inflorescences within plants. Nectar production increases in flowers when nectar is extracted using paper wicks that simulate removal by insects in nature. Removal-enhanced nectar production in milkweeds may allow plants to adjust resources to inflorescences receiving insect visitation. Significant inter-plant differences in nectar production and the unique milkweed flower provides a model system for examining the role of pollinator-mediated selection on nectar traits.

Authors: Fountain Michelle T , Mateos-Fierro Zeus , Shaw Bethan , Brain Phil , Delgado Alvaro
Published: July 2021

The pear (Pyrus communis L.) cultivar, Conference, is parthenocarpic but misshapes and marketable fruit losses of 6% at harvest are common. In other studies, insect flower visitors are identified as important for apple quality, but far fewer studies have examined the effects of insects and cross-pollination on pear quality. Using a range of replicated field experiments, this project aimed to determine the; 1) biodiversity of pear blossom insect visitors, 2) pollen limitation and fruit quality as a function of distance from the orchard edge and number of insect visitors, and 3) importance of cross pollination on fruit quality. A wide range of insects, >30 species, visited pear flowers including honey bees, bumble bees, solitary bees and hoverflies. Honey bees were the most frequent visitors, but all guilds, to a greater or lesser extent, made contact with the reproductive parts of the flower. Insect visits resulted in ~10% higher fruit set. There was no effect of distance from the edge (up to 50 m) of orchard on the quality of pears, and no consistent difference in the guild of insects visiting at distances from the orchard boundary. Cross-pollination with the variety Concorde produced better quality Conference fruits. We discuss how pollination of Conference pears could be managed to improve yields of marketable fruit.

Published: July 2021

Flood control, via the construction of the Seven Oaks Dam in the Santa Ana River in southern California, has altered habitat in the downstream alluvial wash community and jeopardized the persistence of pioneer plant species that rely on periodic flood-scouring and sand recharge. One species, Eriastrum densifolium ssp. sanctorum (“Eriastrum”), an endangered perennial, has been greatly affected and persists in spatially separated populations on successional vegetation terraces. We made “dawn to dusk” observations of pollinators in three phenological stages at four sites, representing young and old seral stages, to identify primary pollinators and to elicit daily, site, and seasonal patterns of visitors. Data were compared to previous observations and correlated with annual rainfall to determine long-term trends. Shifts in pollinator taxa have occurred, with some consistency through time and space, during nine years. The sites with the highest pollinator abundance (older sites) are least suited to Eriastrum. Hummingbirds (prevalent in early season) and the Acton giant flower-loving fly (prevalent in late season) have been consistently present across years, whereas other taxa have varied. A shift from native bees to non-native bees has occurred, although native bees in the families Halictidae and Apidae (Micranthophora and Melissodes) remain important. In general, there was no correlation between taxa abundance and rainfall. Eriastrum appears to be a generalist able to take advantage of the behaviour, cycling, and availability of diverse pollinators daily, seasonally, and annually.
An Effective and Affordable Camera Trap for Monitoring Flower-visiting Butterflies in Sandhills: with Implications for the Frosted Elfin (Callophrys irus)
Authors: Mcelveen Dave , Meyer Robert t
Published: July 2021

New advancements in camera trap technology have led to wide-spread use in animal monitoring. In this study we tested whether modern self-contained camera traps could be used to identify small lepidopterans such as the frosted elfin (Callophrys irus). A vast majority of photographed lepidopterans, 76/81 (93.83%), were identifiable to family when moving relatively slowly across the camera’s field of view. Although no C. irus were observed, we were able to identify several species of lepidopterans including those of similar size as C. irus. We find that modern camera traps are adequate to sample small lepidopterans and may open new avenues to survey for small rare species such as C. irus over larger areas than typically possible with small field crews and short flight seasons.
New records of pollinators and other insects associated with Arizona milkweed, Asclepias angustifolia, at four sites in Southeastern Arizona
Authors: Behrstock Robert Aaron
Published: July 2021

Asclepias angustifolia is a Mexican milkweed that barely enters the U.S.A. Its pollinators and other insect visitors have not been investigated. During 2018 and 2019, insect visitors were photographed at a native population and three gardens in and near the Huachuca Mountains, Southeastern Arizona. A total of 216 site visits produced at least 369 species of insects in seven orders. Images revealed 140 potential pollinators with a preponderance of Hymenoptera, Lepidoptera, and Diptera. Orders of insects are discussed, as are flowering phenology, potential pollinators in functional groups, introduced insects, and the value of A. angustifolia for monarch butterflies and other insects in pollinator gardens and in planting palettes created for restoration sites. NOTE: Supplementary files can be found in the left menu.

Discurso y poder en Ecuador: análisis del discurso de los presidentes Rafael Correa Delgado y Lenin Moreno Garcés
Authors: Salazar-Atiencie Gladiz , Punín Larrea María Isabel
Published: July 2021

Ecuador desde el 2007 y hasta el 24 de mayo de 2021, estará gobernado por un proyecto político denominado: La Revolución Ciudadana (Alianza País-Listas 35), partido que ha sufrido una serie de discrepancias y el distanciamiento del presidente L. Moreno. Este artículo usa los postulados del Análisis del Discurso, relacionados con las estructuras semánticas, compuestas de complejidad léxica, uso de superlativos y tendencias ideológicas para analizar los mensajes emitidos por Rafael Correa Delgado (2006-2009-2013) y Lenin Moreno Garcés (2017), considerando tres momentos: 1. Campaña electoral, 2. Plan de gobierno y 3. Toma del poder. Sistematiza las promesas usadas en el discurso según los tres momentos mencionados, para luego analizar de manera cronológica y cualitativa las ofertas que lograron cristalizarse durante el ejercicio del poder presidencial. Existe un cambio progresivo del discurso público, debido a dos variantes, la primera asegurar la permanencia en el poder y la segunda, justificar la situación de crisis del país, pero en cualquiera de los casos siempre está conectada con el discurso populista. En el discurso de Rafael Correa se identifica una estrategia definida ideológicamente. Mientras que Lenin Moreno tiende a improvisar, usando un discurso variable, sin conceptos concretos, ni estratégicos.

Design and Specification Compilation of a Modularized Prefabricated High-rise Steel Frame Structure with Inclined Braces Part II: Elastic-plastic analysis and Joint Design
Authors: Liu Xuechun , Zhang Ailin , Tian Chen , Zhang Xun , Tan Yongqiang
Published: July 2021

Modularized prefabricated steel structure has some obvious advantages, such as fast construction, industrial-scale production and environment-friendliness. Although it has been used for low-rise buildings, its applications in high-rise buildings are quite less. The elastic-plastic time-history analysis under rare earthquake conditions is performed on a 30-floor building. The changing law of the base shear force, the story drift angle, the stress, the damage characteristics, etc. are studied. According to the theoretical analysis, the finite element simulation and the model test, the design methods and the relevant formulas regarding the elastic and elastic-plastic properties of the beam-column connection joints, the column flange joints and the inclined brace joints are proposed in this paper. The control parameters for the structural design are also discussed. This paper provides an important reference for the research and design of the same type of modularized prefabricated high-rise steel structures, and the design method has been compiled into design specification.
Modularization Business Case: Process Flowchart and Major Considerations
Authors: O’Brien William J. , O’Connor James T. , Choi Jin Ouk
Published: July 2021

Modularization is a well-known method of enhancing project value by exporting a portion of site work to one or more local or distant fabrication or assembly shops/yards. Still, the industry is in need of additional guidance on how to more effectively exploit modularization. To help achieve wider and more effective use of modularization, the researchers and the Construction Industry Institute’s (CII) Research Team 283 develops here a new modularization business case process for developing the modularization drivers (and for determining the degree to which modularization will be implemented). The result is an optimal decision-making process as these drivers are compared with the owner’s objectives and evaluation criteria for cost, schedule, risk and other project objectives. This paper presents this new modularization business case process and lays out the major considerations that pertain to per-project phases. The findings provide guidelines along with a flowchart that should impose rigor on the decision process, helping owners and avoiding poor outcomes.
Modular Home off-site Construction Production Line Improvement
Authors: Zhang Youyi , Moghadam Mana , Al-Hussein Mohamed
Published: July 2021

Today modular and off-site construction practices are widely used as a novel approach to residential and commercial building construction. Although this approach is known for its high production efficiency and low material waste, manufacturers are facing the challenge of fully differentiating their modular construction procedures from the conventional construction approach. Manufacturers are thus seeking to continuously implement efficient methodologies to improve their production line effectiveness, thereby enhancing their market competitiveness. This paper proposes a methodology enabling the modular manufacturer to overcome this challenge and increase their assembly line productivity by implementing building information modelling (BIM)-supported lean manufacturing concepts, with a particular focus on the importance of the upstream pre-assembly line. This technique was implemented on a case-study, a residential modular factory, and increased the production line productivity by implementing the Lean-assembly concept. This approach is supported by the information provided from an enhanced BIM model generated to deliver accurate resource quantity required at each assembly station.

Comparative effects of different processing methods like blanching, soaking, roasting and germination methods on nutritional composition and antinutritional factors in peanut milk were investigated. Local and CO 6 peanut varieties were selected for peanut milk preparation and subjected to different processing methods. Peanut milk was extracted from fresh (control), blanched (2 mins), soaked (3 hrs), roasted (roasting 5 mins followed by soaking 3 hrs) and germinated (8 hrs) peanuts. Peanuts were washed, ground, slurry separated, filtered, homogenized, double pasteurized and stored. Different processing methods influenced the nutritional composition of local and CO 6 variety peanut milk. The nutritional composition like total solids, protein, fat, calcium and iron content of the different processed peanut milk were analyzed. The total solid content of the peanut milk does not change in soaking (13.98 and 15 g/ 100 mL), germination method (13.99 and 15.26 g/100 mL), less reduction in roasting method (13.96 and 15.20 g/ 100 mL), more significant reduction in blanching method (12.36 and 13.97 g/ 100 mL) in local and CO 6 variety of peanut milk respectively were recorded. Protein content was increased in germination ((6.1 and 6.4 g/ 100 mL), soaking (6.0 and 6.3 g / 100 mL), roasting method (5.6 and 5.8 g / 100 mL) and reduction in blanching method (4.1 and 5.0 g / 100 mL) in local and CO 6 variety peanut milk respectively. Fat content was significantly reduced in control (3.82 and 3.54 g / 100 mL), blanching method (3.63 and 3.32 g / 100 mL), soaking method ( 3.80 and 3.55 g/ 100 mL) and germination method (3.60 and 3.50 g/ 100 mL) in local and CO 6 variety peanut milk. Calcium and iron content was greatly reduced in blanching and lesser reduction in roasting method. Antinutritional factors like phytic acid, tannin, trypsin inhibitor, oxalate and phenol was greatly reduced in roasting and germination methods. It was observed that the nutritional properties were highly conserved and the antinutritional factor was greatly reduced in the roasting method.

Desa Mekar Sari merupakan salah satu desa termuda di Kecamatan Sungai Raya , terdiri dari lima dusun, 13 RW dan 47 RT. Potensi desa cukup bervariasi dari bidang perkebunan, pertanian serta perikanan. Pada umumya masyarakat desa ini adalah petani , dengan mengandalkan hasil kebun karet, padi, dan kelapa sawit. Potensi desa di bidang pertanian adalah jahe, nanas, sayuran dan bidang perikananan dengan budidaya ikan. Namun pengelolaan hasil pertanian dan perikanan hanya sebatas penanaman, panen, kemudian dijual, sehingga pendapatan masyarakat di Desa Mekar Sari tergantung pada harga jual yang tidak menentu. Saat hasil panen melimpah maka harga akan turun. Begitu juga halnya di bidang perikanan, di desa yang berada di tepian Sungai Kapuas ini banyak masyarakat yang melakukan pembesaran ikan nila menggunakan keramba jaring apung.

Upaya yang dilakukan untuk mengatasi masalah tersebut adalah dengan melakukan pendampingan pengolahan hasil pertanian khususnya jahe dan nanas menjadi jelly jahe dan kerupuk nanas. Selain itu juga dilakukan pendampingan pengolahan ikan nila menjadi nugget ikan nila sehingga memiliki nilai tambah. Kegiatan ini juga diikuti dengan pelatihan pengemasan produk serta pelatihan dan pendampingan pemasaran produk sehingga masyarakat dapat menjual hasil olahannya di desa tersebut maupun di luar desanya, yang pada akhirnya diharapkan dapat meningkatkan penghasilan masyarakat setempat.
