Authors: S. Levytska  , L. Akimova  , O. Zaiachkivska  , M. Karpa  , Sandeep Kumar Gupta
Published: August 2020

It was grounded, that analysis of financial performance allows discovering opportunities to improve the enterprise financial condition, implements effective control over revenue and expense metrics, makes economically sound decisions based on the calculation results. The features of generating and accounting profit are distinguished, which should be taken into consideration in the course of analysis of the financial performance of business entities that do not always ensure the accuracy of information. In particular, it was found that displaying the fact of sales at the time of goods shipment distorts the financial condition (there may be situations where the entity is financially stable but insolvent); even a profitable enterprise can show the signs of bankruptcy, if its funds are invested in low-liquid assets, the accounts payable are not paid off, and the profits are not used efficiently; the income accrued throughout the entity’s operation is never equal to the amount of income accrued for each reporting period (this is due to revaluations and changes in accounting policies); the income according to the accounting data is not identical to the real (from the economic point of view) financial performance of the entity. A model of profit factor analysis, which takes into account the shortcomings of the previous model and which is based on the use of direct-costing is considered in detail. The peculiarity of this model is that the cost of production is calculated and planned only in part of the variable costs, and fixed costs at the end of each month are written off to the financial performance of the entity main activities. It is established that the current regulatory framework for income generating, accounting and analysis leads to the distortion of the real financial performance. Therefore, the concepts of economic, accounting and tax profit should be distinguished, and their relationships should be taken into account. It is proved that the results of profit and profitability analysis, including the quality of analytical studies and the rationality of management decisions made on their basis, depend on organising separate accounting for fixed and variable costs, implementing the budgeting system by the subject. In spite of the fact that in the conditions of management accounting, the method of factor analysis of profit becomes mathematically complicated, its results become more transparent from the economic point of view, and the possibilities of using information in carrying out strategic prospective analysis of financial performance expand.

Published: August 2020

The article analyzes the concepts to determine the essence of the investment project. The theoretical and methodical approach to the definition of an investment project, which will provide the possibility for a clear identification of the essential features, ensure an effective interaction with internal and external dynamic environment is offered. The most common classification features of investment projects are singled out. The main features of the definition of the functions of investment management as a management system and a special area of enterprise management are determined.

It was emphasized that for the steady positive development of industrial enterprises in a competitive and rapidly changing environment, effective management of investment activity of enterprises is a necessary condition for functioning. In addition, it is proved that in the context of the limited financial and other types of resources, the use of an integrated approach to investing is one more major area for improving the efficiency of management of investment processes at the macro level, and an integrated investment design is a system-integrated process of management of a set of investment projects that are subordinated to a single strategic plan focused on the successful implementation of the enterprise investment program. The necessity of further, more profound research of investment management in conditions of uncertainty and risk is substantiated. The next stage of the research should be the construction of a system for making investment decisions in conditions of uncertainty and risk.

Published: August 2020

The low level of coverage of the population by banking services is one of the relevant problem for the Ukrainian banking system and for the economy as a whole. The economic growth, the well-being of the population and the social climate in society depend from the ability of the population to the use of basic financial services. In the article the definition of financial inclusion of the population is considered and formed. The determinants of supply and demand, which are complemented by the determinants of social responsibility, are studied. This approach, together with the needs and accessibility of basic financial services, combines the protection of consumer rights, the development of proportional surveillance, the promotion of digital technology and the creation of financial literacy programs, taking into account national and sociological characteristics. The author’s proposed vision of the components of financial inclusion is related to well-being, awareness, accessibility, involvement and use. Their economic content, logical consistency and interconnectedness are disclosed. A set of analytical indicators has been formed, quantitatively characterizing them and integrated indexes have been constructed. On the basis of a composite consideration of all indices, a map of financial inclusion was constructed, which clearly shows that the population in Ukraine is not sufficiently oriented in the economy and financial sphere. The reasons for the low interest of the population in the use of banking services, among which the dominant ones are recognized: lack of funds, distrust of banking institutions, unacceptable pricing policy of banks. According to the statistics of the World Bank and the NBU, the coverage of the population of Ukraine with basic financial services is analyzed in comparison with other countries. It is determined that in order to increase the level of financial inclusion, it is necessary to ensure that the basic financial services of those part of the population of the country who do not have access to them are covered.
ЕКОЛОГІЧНА, СОЦІАЛЬНА ТА УПРАВЛІНСЬКА (ESG) ІНФОРМАЦІЯ В ОБЛІКОВІЙ СИСТЕМІ ЯК ІНСТРУМЕНТ ВЕРИФІКАЦІЇ КОНЦЕПЦІЇ СТАЛОГО РОЗВИТКУ

Обґрунтовано передумови та доречність презентації, окрім фінансової екологічну, соціальну та управлінську інформацію широкому колу користувачів, у тому числі, інституційним інвесторам, у форматі ESG-звітності з метою створення довгострокової цінності бізнесу на принципах прозорості та ділової етики із урахуванням важливих критеріїв, які мають ураховувати підприємства, що розраховують на інвестиції та стійку позицію на ринку. Доведено, що суб’єкти бізнесу, які орієнтуються на такий формат звітності, керуються філософією сучасного ефективного бізнесового мислення відповідно до нової парадигми — концепції сталого розвитку.

Проаналізовано науково-методичні напрацювання з питань оприлюднення та звітності широкого спектра фінансових і нефінансових показників, що дають можливість імплементувати важливі елементи та об’єкти в облікову систему з метою складання інтегрованої звітності, на основі чого виокремлено основні критерії, які мають ураховувати підприємства, що розраховують на інвестиції та стійку позицію на ринку, що в комплексі дає можливість формувати стійке уявлення про реальний стан бізнесу.

Обґрунтовано контент ESG-звітності, що базується на особливих принципах і методології у контексті «триєдиного підходу» — ефективної синергії економічної, екологічної та соціальної складових. Доведено раціональність такого підходу як системного, оскільки на його підставі, по-перше, можна забезпечити обґрунтованість виділення об’єктів, суб’єктів обліку та, по-друге, дослідити взаємозв’язок між ними, максимально врахувавши вплив достатньо великого спектра чинників і захистити в такий спосіб «право облікової системи» на самовдосконалення та динамічний розвиток у зв’язку із збільшенням інформаційних запитів користувачів у системі сталого розвитку.

У зв’язку з цим обґрунтовано розширення формату облікових номенклатур і, відповідно, моделювання нового облікового процесу, у якому знайдуть своє місце необхідна інформація не лише економічна, а й екологічна, соціальна та інша корисна інформація про управління. Запропоновано формально два підходи для забезпечення зазначених номенклатур: шляхом виокремлення і ведення екологічного обліку, соціального обліку або розширення методологічного діапазону облікового процесу та відповідного організаційного забезпечення.
INTERPRETATION OF FINANCIAL ASPECTS OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY COMMERCIALIZATION AS AN INNOVATIVE PRODUCT
Authors: L. Vasyurenko  , I. Kuksa  , I. Shtuler  , N. Gerasymchuk  , I. Podik
Published: August 2020

Establishing a mechanism for commercialization of the results of scientific and technical activities created at the expense of budgetary funds or funds of individuals and legal entities, ensuring its functioning and attracting intellectual property to the economic turnover can ensure a significant increase in additional revenues to the budget and facilitate the expansion of innovative processes in the country. Intellectual property contains the notion of exclusive right to the results of creative work; accordingly, labor, as appropriate human activity, must end with remuneration, including financial ones. It is proposed to distinguish the specifics of the financial aspects of intellectual property from a number of differential characteristics of the subject of study in two directions, depending on the understanding of the product movement: the aspect of financial security, which heads the specificity of forms, approaches, sources of funding for research (as one of the conditions for the creation of intellectual property) the commercialization of intellectual property as an effective indicator of understanding the meaning of creating an innovative product. The dynamics of gross domestic expenditure on research, as a share of gross domestic product, in the countries that are members of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and separately in 28 countries of the European Union have been analyzed. A typology of existing forms of intellectual property commercialization as a range of innovative product realization opportunities for economic benefit has been developed. The process of intellectual property commercialization is modeled, in the form of a generalized visualization of its movement to an innovative product, which involves four successive steps (the path to the market), choosing one of the forms of commercialization typology that provides the maximum possible variability for choosing the optimal strategy.
Experiências educativo-musicais na formação de um habitus musical
Authors: Kaczan Marcelo , Rogério Pedro , Kaczan Maria Anita Vieira Lustosa
Published: August 2020

Debate-se, neste escrito, a importância de se reafirmar o ensino de música nos espaços educativos, garantindo sua permanência no âmbito da escola regular. Assim, tem-se aqui como objetivo primordial apresentar a relevância da utilização de práticas educativo-musicais criativas para o ensino de música (FONTERRADA, 2015) como elemento potencializador do desenvolvimento humano, cognitivo, crítico, emocional, político e social. Essa maneira de ensinar música, com esteio em práticas criativas nas salas de aulas, traz múltiplas possibilidades de renovar o ensino de música e de se instaurar um habitus musical – uma cultura musical – ampliando o seu alcance ao maior número possível de estudantes. O motor central das discussões é a necessidade de se reinventar o ensino de música ante a hegemonia da Indústria Cultural, propondo práticas diversificadas que incentivem a criação e a fruição, que possam romper com o ensino tradicional de música padronizado e com a lógica do consumo mercadológico que o repertório comercial forma nos ouvintes. É necessário incentivar a criação de experiências diversas consideradas singulares em razão do processo massivo que apenas reproduz modelos prontos e legitimados socialmente. Assim, é urgente investir em práticas criativas diferentes das atuais formas de ensinar música na escola.

O poder de narrar: geopolítica da distribuição cinematográfica no Brasil
Authors: Rogowski Pozzo Renata
Published: August 2020

RESUMO O presente ensaio desenvolve uma investigação dentro do campo da economia política da cultura que objetiva problematizar e desvendar caminhos para o entendimento do quadro de hegemonia do cinema hollywoodiano no Brasil, tendo como foco a distribuição em salas. Coloca-se como hipótese que o subdesenvolvimento econômico do cinema nacional tem origem em questões de ordem macroeconômica, a saber, na estrutura oligopolista da indústria cinematográfica em escala mundial que logrou a dominação do mercado, especialmente da esfera da distribuição, pelas majors. À luz do que escreve Ellen Wood sobre o imperialismo contemporâneo, opera-se com as ideias de tríade competitiva de Alfred Chandler, centralização do capital de Harry Braverman e mundialização do capital de  François Chesnais, para entender a estrutura e a organização contemporânea das grandes corporações de mídia. A partir de dados publicados pelo Observatório Brasileiro do Cinema e do Audiovisual (OCA-ANCINE), analisa-se a atuação das distribuidoras estrangeiras no Brasil, bem como dois movimentos contemporâneos que reconfiguram o mercado: a digitalização das salas e a emergência do streaming.

Мандельштам в ≪стишках≫ Умки (Анны Герасимовой)
Authors: Каргашин Игорь
Published: August 2020

Статья посвящена анализу творческой рецепции О. Мандельштама в текстах Анны Герасимовой. Анна Георгиевна Герасимова – переводчик, поэт, автор первой в России диссертации по творчеству обэриутов, рок-музыкант (сценический и литературный псевдоним Умка). Как показал анализ, особенно ярко рецепция мандельштамовской поэзии в текстах Умки проявлена в тех случаях, когда обнаруживаются не отдельные лексические или ритмические «вкрапления» из его текстов, но всё стихотворение оказывается формой, аккумулирующей художественный опыт О. Мандельштама.
Доминантные и факультативные компоненты лексических комбинаций в русской поэзии
Authors: Павлова Лариса , Романова Ирина
Published: August 2020

Статья отражает опыт применения оригинального программного комплекса «Гипертекстовый поиск слов-спутников в авторских текстах», который позволяет обнаружить повторяющиеся лексические комбинации в творчестве того или иного автора («корпусное» направление исследований) или в тематически заданном определенной ключевой лексемой корпусе стихотворений разных авторов вплоть до всей русской поэзии («тематическое» направление исследований). В выявленных лексических комбинациях выделяется общий лексический ряд, обусловленный общностью объективного жизненного или языкового материала, общими особенностями человеческого восприятия, распространенными ассоциациями. Так создается лейтмотивная лексическая среда. Это доминантные компоненты лексических комбинаций. За пределами этого лейтмотивного ряда остаются вариации – лексемы, которые изредка добавляются к лейтмотивному ядру в конкретных текстах и тем самым индивидуализируют эти тексты. Это факультативные компоненты комбинаций. Выявление доминантных и факультативных компонентов лексических комбинаций эффективно для сравнения разных авторов и установления общего и отличного в их поэтических интерпретациях одной и той же темы.
Аналепсис: ≪ретроспекция≫ или ≪экскурс в прошлое≫?
Authors: Ефименко Александр
Published: August 2020

Анализируются мотивировки аналепсиса как одного из приемов построения сюжета. В русской филологической литературе данный прием именуется то вводимой воспоминаниями ретроспекцией, то обусловленным аукториальной активностью экскурсом в прошлое. Анализ повести Ю. Полякова Апофегей и привлекаемых попутно других произведений русской литературы показывает, что приемами мотивировки аналепсиса служат не только прием воспоминания, но и ряд других: ввод нового референта, стык информационных контекстов, анонсирующее сообщение. Поэтому наряду с терминами «ретроспекция» и «экскурс в прошлое» предлагается употреблять термины «доминантный аналепсис» и «недоминантный аналепсис». Подчеркивается, что в составе и доминантного, и недоминантного аналепсиса могут употребляться и приемы-ретроспекции, построенные на основе воспоминаний персонажа, и «эксурсы в прошлое», произведенные конструктивной активностью нарратора.

Published: August 2020

Background: Kodo millet (Paspalum scrobiculatum L) is an annual hardy crop grown in India from Kerala and Tamil Nadu in the south, to Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, and West Bengal in the north. It is known to have high drought tolerance and, for its potential to sustain in marginally less fertile soil. The grain has high nutritional properties thus possess medicinal values. Owing to multiple utility factors and sustainable growth rate amidst climate change, makes it an ideal crop for cultivation. In the present study accessions of Kodo millet ((Paspalum scrobiculatum L) from twelve different geographical regions of India were evaluated for quantitative and qualitative traits to determine its growth conditions under varied climatic conditions. Methods: Total of 96 indigenous germplasm were collected across the country and were sown in a breeding farm to grow selectively healthy crops in a randomized block design manner during kharif 2012 and 2013. Observations of quantitative traits were recorded on five arbitrarily selected plants in each replication for different physiological traits. Results: The statistical data revealed significant differences among all the studied accessions. Mainly IC482729 and IC404789 from Tamil Nadu had high biomass, straw yield, and yield per plant. IC396004 from Chhattisgarh showed advantageous performance in earliness with medium plant height. Therefore, the present findings helped in identifying elite germplasm accessions and could be effectively used in the Kodo millet enhancement program.

Authors: Jandaik Savita , Sharma Anjana , Thakur Neetika
Published: August 2020

Background: Pleurotus species constitutes one of the choicest edible mushrooms, it is commonly known as “Oyster Mushroom” and in India it is commonly called as “Dhingri. It has important medicinal, biotechnological properties and environmental applications. Its cultivation can be done on a number of agricultural wastes and organic waste materials. There are significant problems in classifying Pleurotus isolates using only morphological characters which are often unreliable and inconclusive mainly due to the large influence exerted by environmental factors. Methods: A wild isolate of Pleurotus was collected from North western Himalayas and its identity was confirmed by molecular studies. Yield, nutritional components and its bioactive molecules were compared with the cultivated isolate of Pleurotus djamore Antibacterial activities of both the isolates of were performed against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus by disc diffusion. Results: Molecular studies confirmed the identity of wild isolate of Pleurotus as Pleurotus djamore. The maximum yield of wild isolate was on paddy straw followed by wheat straw. The protein content was 32.3±0.50g-1 in wild isolate and 28.7±1.67g-1 in cultivated isolate. Presence of nutritional components and phytochemicals inferred in this study indicate the importance of Pleurotus djamore in the pharmaceutical.

Authors: Véliz-Deras F. G. , Zúñiga-García S. , Calderón-Leyva G. , Otal-Salaverri J. , Moreno-Avalos S. , Arellano-Rodríguez F.
Published: August 2020

Background: Goats from subtropical and temperate latitudes show reproductive seasonality. For this reason, the products obtained from goats also shows the same seasonality, reducing the finances of goat keepers. Several studies have focused on reducing reproductive seasonality through the use of hormonal protocols based on progestogens, in addition to the use of equine chorionic gonadotropin (eCG) hormone, used for its double biological activity that ensures an optimal response to induce estrus and pregnancy in goats. The objective was to assess whether reduced doses of eCG are effective in inducing reproductive activity in anestrous goats. Methods: During the transition reproductive period (June), mix-breed Creole goats (n=39), were treated with intramuscular progesterone (P4), later, the experimental treatments, consisting in different doses (50, 100, 50+50 or 200 IU) of equine chorionic gonadotropin (eCG) were applied. After the application of the experimental protocols, the reproductive activity of the goats was evaluated. Result: This study shows that one dose of 100 IU of eCG effectively induced reproductive behavior in anestrous Creole goats towards the end of the seasonal anestrus. This protocol makes the use of exogenous hormones more efficient, with reduce doses, decreasing expenses and is practical use by goat producers.

Authors: Gong Qiang , Du Zhenqi , Niu Mingfu , Qin Cuili
Published: August 2020

Background: Avian Pasteurella multocida is one of the pathogens that affect the health of poultry. The protective efficacy of traditional attenuated vaccine is not ideal. In previous study, we prepared ptfA gene DNA vaccine of avian P. multocida. However, the protective effect of ptfA gene DNA vaccine was inferior to the attenuated vaccine. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the immune efficacy of avian P. multocida DNA vaccine, such as screening for novel adjuvant. Methods: In this study, the peony seed proteolysis product was gavaged to chickens before DNA vaccination or was added to the ptfA gene DNA vaccine as adjuvant. These vaccines were administered to chickens and the serum antibody, lymphocyte proliferation levels, IFN-g, IL-2, IL-4 and IL-6 concentrations secreted by peripheral blood lymphocytes were determined. After challenging with virulent avian P. multocida, survival time and protective efficacy was evaluated. Result: Following vaccination, no significant differences in antibody levels and concentrations of IL-4 among the DNA vaccine group, adjuvant-DNA vaccine group and gavaged group were observed. The stimulation index (SI) values, concentrations of IFN-g, IL-2 and IL-6 in adjuvant-DNA vaccine group and gavaged group were significantly higher than those in the DNA vaccine group. The protective efficacy of live attenuated vaccine group, DNA vaccine group, adjuvant-DNA vaccine group and gavaged group were 92%, 52%, 72% and 60%, respectively. This study has laid a foundation for the design and application of future DNA vaccines of P. multocida and DNA vaccine adjuvant.

Discordance between Mitochondrial and Nuclear DNA Genes Suggests the Possibility of Hybridization of Indian and Southeast Asian Types of Oecophylla smaragdina (Fabricius) (Hymenoptera, Formicidae) in Bangladesh
Authors: Rahman M. M. , Hosoishi S. , Ogata K.
Published: August 2020

Background: Oecophylla smaragdina is distributed from India, SE Asia and Australia including many tropical Islands. A recent phylogenetic study based on mitochondrial DNA analysis reveals that Bangladesh is the overlapping zone of both Indian and Southeast Asian type of O. smaragdina. These two different lineages of Indian and SE Asian type have the opportunities of creating the zone of contacts, but no such data was found. In this study, shed light was given to reveal the chance of hybridized colony of O. smaragdina in Bangladesh. Methods: To asses the hybridization scenario, 28 O. smaragdina colony from 27 localities in Bangladesh were analyzed using Longwave length Rhodopsin (LWRh) nuclear gene sequences and was compared with the mtDNA sequences, which was collected from the same localities and deposited into NCBI GenBank. Results: The inconsistency between mitochondrial and nuclear gene types was observed from two colonies of the overlapped zone of contact. These two colonies were identified as SE Asian type by mtDNA analysis however, by nuclear DNA analysis; it was identified as Indian type. These significant discrepancies within the colony suggested the possibility of hybridization of weaver ant in Bangladesh.

Background: Some of the heavy metals are considered beneficial, if intake of them is within permissible trace amount and some other are highly toxic even in trace amount. So, heavy metals intake is one of the major concerns. Heavy metals enter into body via air, water, food, clothing and some of them gets accumulate in body organs this leads to many disorders and causes life threatening diseases including cancer. All of our food comes from plants directly or indirectly. Tea the highly consuming beverage after water comes from the leaves of plant/shrub Camellia Sinensis. Methods: Aim of the present work is to determine the elements present in Tea brew (Chai, boiling the Tea leaves in water) made from black Tea leaves of major brands available in local Indian market, more specifically heavy metals Cobalt (Co), Arsenic (As), Silver (Ag), Cadmium (Cd), Indium (In), mercury (Hg) and Lead (Pb). Total eleven samples were investigated with the instrument Perkin Elmer NexIon-300x Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer (ICP-MS). Result: Results have shown that Cobalt, Arsenic, Cadmium, Indium and Lead were present in all samples. Cobalt concentration varies from lowest 71.9 µg/kg to highest 214.3 µg/kg; Arsenic concentration varies from lowest 1.2 µg/kg to highest 53.7 µg/kg; Cadmium concentration varies from lowest 15.4 µg/kg to highest 75.03 µg/kg; Indium concentration varies from lowest 0.054 µg/kg to highest 0.70 µg/kg; Lead concentration varies from lowest 61.0 µg/kg to highest 2404.3 µg/kg. Mercury was present in two samples only in S9 and S11 with concentration 6.2 µg/kg and 1.4 µg/kg respectively; Out of eleven samples only seven samples have shown the presence of Silver its concentration varies from lowest 10.3 µg/kg to highest 193.0 µg/kg; Samples S2, S7, S8 and S10 were shown the absence of Silver and Mercury; Lead was found to be most abundant with concentration 2404.3 µg/kg and Indium was found to be least abundant with concentration 0.054 µg/kg.

The objectives of this study are to study the development of the fruit of Ficus carica as affected by the different rates of chicken manure. The experiment was conducted at Glasshouse and Nursery Complex (GNC), IIUM Kuantan Campus. The experiment was arranged in a randomized, completely block design (RCBD). Four rates of chicken manure used were 0 g (T1), 150 g (T2), 300 g (T3) and 450 g (T4) respectively. Based on this study, it showed that there was a significant difference between treatments on all parameters collected. From all parameters, thirteen parameters showed the highest value from treatment consist of 450 g of chicken manure (T4). Meanwhile, no fruit produces from treatment with no fertilizers applied (T1). This indicates that higher performance was produced from the greater amount of chicken manure used. So, it was recommended to increase chicken manure rate on fig to increase yields productivity.

Background: Biochar has a function for soil amendment and leaching loss for nitrogen fertilizer. The objectives of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of Melaleuca cajuputi biochar as a leaching loss for nitrogen fertilizer and intercropping in maize. Methods: The study was conducted from February to June 2019 in Menggoran Forest Resort, Playen District, Gunungkidul Regency, Special Province of Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The experimental design was a randomized complete block design (RCBD) factorial with three replications as the response surface methodology (RSM). The treatments consisted of biochar levels made from Melaleuca cajuputi waste (0, 5, 10, 15 tons ha-1) and nitrogen fertilizer levels sourced from urea (0, 150, 300 kg ha-1) as independent variables. The observation parameters were nitrate reductase activity (NRA), total chlorophyll (TC), net photosynthesis (NP), nitrogen loss (NL), nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) and seed yield per hectare (SY). Result: The RSM revealed that the optimum value of 13.290 tons ha-1 of Melaleuca cajuputi biochar (MCB) and 245.350 kg ha-1 of nitrogen fertilizer (NF) can reduced urea by 18.22%. This recommendation increased NRA, TC, NP, NL, NUE and SY by 35.28%, 19.55%, 18.09%, -46.81%, 27.96% and 61.78%, respectively, in compare to the single application of urea.

Published: August 2020

Background: Urdbean (2n=2x=22), also known as blackgram is an important short duration legume crop belonging to family Fabaceae, widely cultivated in Asia. Urdbean occupies an important position among pulses owing to its high seed protein (25-26%), carbohydrates (60%), fat (15%), minerals, amino acids and vitamins. Owing to its low water requirement, it is also suitable for rainfed conditions. It adapts well to various cropping systems owing to its ability to fix atmospheric nitrogen in symbiosis with soil bacteria, rapid growth and early maturity. Half diallel analysis was adopted in present study to gather information on gca (general combining abilities) and sca (specific combining abilities) of 6 diverse parents and simultaneously estimating various types of gene effects involved in the expression of seed yield and related attributes in urdbean. Methods: The F1’s were developed during 2017 in 9 x 9 half diallel fashion by Sharma et al. 2019 and these F1’s were evaluated. Significant crosses on the basis of gene action and combining ability were selected for further advancement. The experimental material comprised of the six parents and 15 F2’s of a 6 x 6 half diallel cross among six cultivars of urdbean (four are purelines viz., Palampur-93, HPBU-111, DU-1 and KU-553 and rest of the two are advanced and indigenous lines viz., Him Mash-1 and IC-281994). The F2’s along with the parental genotypes were grown in a Randomized block Design (RBD) with three replications at Experimental Farm of the Department of Crop Improvement, COA, CSK HPKV Palampur (H.P.) during Kharif, 2018. Results: The cross combination, Him Mash-1× HPBU-111, was identified the best for high seed yield on the basis of sca. The specific crosses, Palampur-93 × IC-281994, Palampur-93 × KU-553 were good specific combiners for most of the traits viz., plant height, branches per plant, pods per plant, biological yield per plant, seed yield per plant, harvest index, 100-seed weight and crude protein content.
Impact of Different Rhizobial Strains on Physiological Responses and Seed Yield of Mungbean [Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek] under Field Conditions
Authors: . Sapna , Sharma K. D.
Published: August 2020

Background: Water availability is a main controlling factor for agricultural productivity. Erratic monsoon and ever-growing population limit the water accessibility to mungbean and thus reduce its yield. Rhizobia–legume interactions are environmental friendly and are very well known for boosting the production potential of mungbean. But, the screening of new and better rhizobial isolates is essential to improve mungbean yield in sub-optimal conditions. So this study was conducted with the objectives to evaluate the rhizobial isolates for the physiological traits in mungbean and to measure the association of these traits with yield under moisture stress. Methods: In this field experiment during kharif 2016, five rhizobial strains of mungbean viz. Vigna 703 + PSB strain P-36, MR 63, MR 54, MB 17a and MH 8b2 were tested with respect and in combination with RDF at two water levels viz. control and drought. Moisture stress was created by withholding irrigations at flowering and pod formation stages. Result: Growth and physiological traits were altered under moisture stress. Rhizobial isolates MR 63 and MB 17a sustained higher yield over other rhizobial strains under both moisture regimes. These strains maintained higher RWC, leaf water potential and photosynthesis during stress and appear promising for drought tolerance.
Literatura surda na região amazônica: o ambiente educacional como espaço da construção da identidade a partir da experiência estética
Authors: Pissinatti Larissa Gotti , Mori Nerli Nonato Ribeiro
Published: August 2020

O presente artigo objetiva apresentar uma revisão de literatura das produções denominadas de literatura surda na/da Amazônia. Essas produções recontam narrativas locais adaptando-as para o contexto linguístico-cultural dos surdos. A escola é o espaço privilegiado de contato com essas narrativas, possibilitando aos surdos o desenvolvimento de aspectos constituidores de sua identidade. Para tanto, dividimos este trabalho em três momentos. No primeiro, situamos as produções literárias do povo surdo pelo viés da experiência estética, situada no contexto cultural regional, fundamentando-nos em Compagnon (2012) e Loureiro (2002). No segundo momento, discutimos a possibilidade da literatura como instrumento para a experiência estética e, por fim, aprofundaremos, a partir de Lev S. Vigotski e Yves Lenoir, a escola como espaço mediador da experiência estética, da identificação e do desenvolvimento dos valores linguísticoculturais dos surdos. Os resultados confirmam a literatura surda amazônica como instrumento para a formação da identidade dos surdos presentes na região da Amazônia Legal.

Interferências culturais: @ pesquisador@ integral na vacuidade amorosa
Authors: Gauthier Jacques
Published: August 2020

A partir dos conceitos de vigilância amorosa e de vacuidade amorosa procuramos orientações éticas e epistemológicas para pesquisas interculturais. O símbolo dá acesso aos aspectos luar e cruel do conhecimento, ignorados pela ciência eurodescendente, mas presentes nas epistemologias afrodescendente e indígenas, na forma de Oxum e da Onça. Daí a ampliação da epistemologia solar eurodescendente para conexões energéticas indígenas e africanas, rumo à formação d@ pesquisador@ integral, que integra o Cruel e o Carinhoso num pensar com o coração. Podem ser desenvolvidas ciências interculturais a partir dos enraizamentos filosóficos de cada povo. Após Bergson erigindo a intuição em método entramos no transe como método, principalmente em referência ao contato budista com a vacuidade e à prática de dispositivos dançantes. Assim se cria a transculturalidade pela extinção do Ego, inclusive, acadêmico - e pela entrada na quinta dimensão do saber.Palavras-chave: Transculturalidade. Sociopoética. Epistemologia.
