Deciphering and Measures of Robustness and Resilience in Farm Animal: A Review
Authors: Gautam Lokesh , Waiz Hina Ashraf
Published: March 2024

The ability of an animal to adapt to transient environmental difficulties and regain its pre-challenge state is known as resilience, and it is a dynamic and multifaceted characteristic. The ability of the herd to adapt to often shifting and uncertain environmental conditions can be strengthened by resilient animals. The capacity of contemporary technologies to capture many performance metrics of individual animals in real time is a significant advancement in assessing the resilience of farm animals. Resilience, however, cannot be measured directly; instead, quantitative resilience indicators must be derived from mathematical models with biologically meaningful characteristics. This work aimed to review and demonstrate, via examples, several modeling methodologies used with this new type of data (high-frequency recording) in order to identify and measure animal reactions to disturbances.

Weather is the major factor for crop growth and yield.  Farmers  were more  interested on the  current real  time  weather  parameters  such  as rainfall, humidity in air , air temperature, direction and speed of the wind,   Knowing of weather forecast is   useful  to reduce  the yield loss and to obtain more yield with high remunerative price. The precise real time data at exact time  allows the farmers to plan  field management practices like  choosing of correct crops, land preparation, field operations like spraying of pesticides and herbicides, irrigation, fertilizer application, harvest, drying and post harvest operations  to  reduce the   crop damage and economic losses. The District Agromet unit (DAMU) located at KVK, Amadalavalasa is sending timely weather advisories to farmers of Srikakulam district based on the forecast issued by IMD. A total number of  1080AgroAdvisory Service (AAS) bulletins  were  prepared  by using DSS software  and  disseminated  to  the  registered  farmers  through whatsapp and other social media during  2022-2023.  A random sample survey was conducted to study the impact of agro-advisory services to farmers based on weather forecast issued by DAMU, Srikakualm. The sample size was 60 farmers belong to different villages of Amadalavalasa and Srikakulam  blocks  of  Srikakulam district.  The study Results  revealed that spotlight on illiterate  farmers  is much more  significant and  dispersal  of    advisories  in audio or visual format is more comfortable and easy to understand. The results of the survey exposed that among the total farmers the farmers follow for sowing are 45 percent, for spraying operations are 11 percent, for harvest and drying are 62 per cent.  Finally this study confirms that the farmers were more concentrate on sowing, harvest and drying related to weather forecast. Hence finally realized that farmers should follow forecast data of weather from choice of crop and its management practices to after harvest operations to get enhanced productivity and also superior net returns.

Published: March 2024

An investigation was carried out at the Zonal Agricultural Research Station, Vishweshwaraiah Canal Farm, Mandya, Karnataka, spanning from September to December in both 2020 and 2021. The purpose was to analyze how varying spacing and nutrient management practices affect the yield and growth rate of chia plants. The study involved two different spacings (S) and six levels of organic nutrients (N). Employing a 2 × 6 × 3 factorial experiment design within a randomized complete block framework with three replications, the experiment was conducted over a two-year period. The spacing of 60 cm × 15 cm (S2) resulted in notably higher absolute growth rates (1.00 and 1.87 g/day, respectively at 30 – 60 and 60 – 90 DAS) and biomass duration (221.84, 893.45 and 2182.73 days, respectively at 0 – 30, 30 – 60 and 60 – 90 DAS). Conversely, for relative growth rate (1.67 and 1.19 g/g/day × 10-2, respectively at 30 – 60 DAS and 60 – 90 DAS) and leaf area ratio (2180.90, 1967.19 and 1522.35 cm2/g × 10-2, respectively at 30, 60 and 90 DAS), higher values were observed with 45 cm × 15 cm spacing (S1). Among the various organic nutrient levels, the highest absolute growth rate (1.09 and 2.01 g/day, respectively at 30 – 60 and 60 – 90 DAS) and biomass duration (259.18, 1009.48 and 2403.23 days, respectively at 0 – 30, 30 – 60 and 60 – 90 DAS) were recorded with N6, while greater relative growth rate (1.86 and 1.20 g/g/day × 10-2, respectively at 30 – 60 DAS and 60 – 90 DAS) and leaf area ratio (2616.15, 2206.54 and 1723.31 cm2/g × 10-2, respectively at 30, 60 and 90 DAS) were found with N1. The interaction between spacing and organic nutrient levels did not yield any significant differences with respect to absolute growth rate, biomass duration, relative growth rate and leaf area ratio.

Published: March 2024

The important aspects of liquidation of Kenguri sheep and purpose of its rearing were studied during the experiment. Total forty sheep farms, 20 each in intensive and extensive rearing systems were selected randomly based on their accessibility in study area Yadgir district of Karnataka, India. The main factors of liquidation and purpose of sheep raising were tabulated by calculating frequency and percentage values. Reasons like agriculture purpose (100.00%) and domestic expenses (90.00%) were having sometimes and occasional frequencies under liquidation of sheep in intensive rearing system majorly. Likewise, domestic expenses (80.00%) and repay loan (80.00%) were having equal weightage of sometimes and occasional frequencies in extensive rearing system regarding sheep selling. Income generation (100.00%) and hereditary acquisition (95.00%) were the major and minor intrinsic factors and high demand for mutton production was major extrinsic factor in intensive rearing system. Employment (70.00%) and investment and growth (75.00%) were the major and minor intrinsic factors and more lucrative (90.00%) was the major extrinsic factor in extensive rearing system. The findings of this evaluation will pave the path for profitable selling and systematic rearing of sheep to the farming community in further days.

Authors: Arunkumar V. , Ananthi K. , Manikandan K. , Vijayakumar M. , Yuvaraj M.
Published: March 2024

To understand the spatial dependency of available sulphur and micronutrients in an experimental farm, 83 soil samples (surface and subsurface) were taken from Agricultural College, Killikulam to characterize the spatial variability of available Sulphur and micronutrients. The geostatistics and geographic information system (GIS) techniques were applied. With the help of geostatistical analyst of ArcGIS software kriged map of different soil parameters were prepared. Available S, Fe, Cu and Zn were fitted with a spherical model and that available Mn was fitted with an exponential model. Soil available Cu had strong spatial dependence with a range of 3.62 km. Available Fe, Zn and Mn had moderate spatial dependence with a range of 9.47 km, 5.61 km and 2.70 km, respectively. Available sulphur had weak spatial dependence with a range of 6.86 km. The spatial distribution of the available sulphur and micronutrients were significantly correlated to the soil formation factors. Agricultural practices such as application of fertilizers and pesticides also had significant effects on the spatial distributions of the available micro-nutrients and sulfur.

Association of the human kainate receptor GluR7 gene (GRIK3) with recurrent major depressive disorder
Authors: Schiffer H.H. , Heinemann S.F.
Published: September 2006

The etiology of mood disorders remains elusive, despite our increasing understanding of the neurotransmitter systems and brain regions that are involved. We performed a large family‐based association study to test if the human kainate receptor GluR7 gene (GRIK3) is associated with bipolar disorder (BP) or recurrent major depressive disorder (R‐MDD). One hundred fifty‐three multiplex BP families from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) Genetics Initiative on Bipolar Disorder were analyzed with the transmission disequilibrium test (TDT). We detected a significant linkage disequilibrium (LD) indicated by preferential maternal transmission of the GluR7 S310 allele to R‐MDD patients (P = 0.012), but not to bipolar I disorder (BPI) patients (P = 1.00). We performed a second independent study by applying the TDT in 81 parent–offspring triads from families that inherit recurrent early‐onset major depressive disorder (RE‐MDD). The results from this second study showed only a suggestive maternal association (P = 0.068). Our findings imply that the GluR7 gene is a susceptibility factor in R‐MDD and that the glutamatergic receptor system plays a critical role in the disease etiology. © 2006 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

Published: September 2006

Attention‐deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common psychiatric disorders of childhood. The role of genetic factors in its etiology is strongly supported by family, adoption, and twin studies. Low serotonin activity has been associated in both animal and human studies with measures of impulsivity, aggression, and disinhibited behaviors, which make genes from the serotonin system reasonable candidates for ADHD susceptibility. In the present study, we investigated a polymorphism in the promoter region of the serotonin transporter (SLC6A4) and two polymorphisms (−1438 A > G and His452Tyr) in the serotonin 5‐HTR2A receptor gene using family based association analyses in a sample of 243 Brazilian ADHD children and adolescents and their parents. No linkage disequilibrium between the two HTR2A polymorphisms was detected in this sample (P = 0.76). Considering several evidences from animal models for sexual dimorphism in serotonin genes expression, analyses were performed separately for the whole sample and for male probands. No evidences for biased transmissions of both HTR2A −1438 A > G and SLC6A4 polymorphisms to ADHD youths were observed. Preferential transmission of the HTR2A His452 allele was observed only in families with affected boys (P = 0.04). Our results suggest that findings from ADHD association studies for serotonin genes might be understood in the context of a gender effect, which may help to explain conflicting results in these association studies. © 2006 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Evidence of linkage to psychosis on chromosome 5q33‐34 in pedigrees ascertained for bipolar disorder
Authors: Kerner Berit , Brugman Diana L. , Freimer Nelson B.
Published: September 2006

It is hypothesized that the presence of psychotic features may define a subtype of bipolar disorder that is more homogeneous in its genetic predisposition than bipolar disorder as a whole. We used psychosis as an alternative phenotype definition in a re‐analysis of the NIMH Bipolar Genetics Initiative data sets. In this analysis we selected only those families in which at least two members were diagnosed with bipolar disorder type 1 with psychotic features. This analysis identified a linkage signal on chromosome 5q33‐q34, a region previously implicated in independent linkage studies of schizophrenia and of psychosis, broadly defined. This finding is consistent with the hypothesis that susceptibility to psychosis may characterize at least a subtype of bipolar disorder. © 2006 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

Published: September 2006

The present study extends our previous work characterizing the behavioral features of autistic‐spectrum disorder (ASD) in Down syndrome (DS) using the Aberrant Behavior Checklist (ABC) and Autism Behavior Checklist (AutBehav). We examined which specific behaviors distinguished the behavioral phenotype of DS + ASD from other aberrant behavior disorders in DS, by determining the relative contribution of ABC and AutBehav subscales and items to the diagnosis of ASD. A total of 127 subjects (aged 2–24 years; mean age: 8.4 years; ∼70% male), comprising: a cohort of 64 children and adolescents with DS and co‐morbid ASD (DS + ASD), 19 with DS and stereotypic movement disorder (DS + SMD), 18 with DS and disruptive behaviors (DS + DB), and 26 with DS and no co‐morbid behavior disorders (DS + none) were examined using the aforementioned measures of aberrant behavior. We found that subjects with DS + ASD showed the most severe aberrant behavior, especially stereotypy compared to DS + none and lethargy/social withdrawal and relating problems compared to DS + SMD. Specifically, relatively simple stereotypic behavior differentiated DS + ASD from DS + DB, whereas odd/bizarre stereotypic and anxious behavior characterized DS + ASD relative to DS + SMD and DS + none. Additionally, in a subset of subjects with DS + ASD and anxiety, social withdrawal was particularly pronounced. Overall, our findings indicate that a diagnosis of DS + ASD represents a distinctive set of aberrant behaviors marked by characteristic odd/bizarre stereotypic behavior, anxiety, and social withdrawal. © 2006 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
For professional mediators, it's about more than assessing the case's value

Further evidence of association between mutations in FGFR2 and syndromic craniosynostosis with sacrococcygeal eversion
Authors: Oliveira Nélio A.J. , Alonso Luís G. , Fanganiello Roberto D. , Passos‐Bueno Maria Rita
Published: September 2006

BACKGROUND:

Pfeiffer syndrome (PS; OMIM #101600) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by craniosynostosis, midface hypoplasia, broad thumbs, brachydactyly, broad great toes, and variable syndactyly.

CASE:

We report a case of PS (type 3) with tracheal and visceral involvement and sacrococcygeal eversion. The patient shows facial dysmorphism with macrocephaly, dolichocephaly, and trigonocephaly, and an asymmetric skull, bilateral and severe exophthalmia with shallow orbits and ocular hypertelorism, downslanting palpebral fissures, constant strabismus, short anterior cranial base, and midface hypoplasia.

CONCLUSIONS:

Molecular analysis of the FGFR2 gene in this patient revealed a point mutation (c.890G>C NM_000141). This mutation leads to the substitution of the residue tryptophan at position 290 to cysteine in the protein (p.Try290Cys). These data reinforce the hypothesis that the p.Trp290Cys mutation is more often associated with a severe and poor prognosis of PS. Furthermore they suggest that the presence of sacrococcygeal defects is not associated with any specific FGFR2 mutation. Birth Defects Research (Part A), 2006. © 2006 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Dramatic Enhancement of Enone Epoxidation Rates in Nonionic Microemulsions
Authors: Wielpütz Thomas , Sottmann Thomas , Strey Reinhard , Schmidt Friederike , Berkessel Albrecht
Published: September 2006

The ability of microemulsions to dissolve polar and non‐polar components with a huge internal interface can overcome the reagent incompatibilities frequently encountered in organic reactions. We investigated model epoxidation reactions of α,β‐unsaturated enones and alkaline hydrogen peroxide in different nonionic microemulsions, both in the presence and absence of a phase‐transfer agent (PTA). The obtained reaction profiles were compared with those for the corresponding surfactant‐free two‐phase systems. In addition, we defined a time constantτas a measure for the rate of turnover. The epoxidation oftrans‐chalcone using ann‐alkyl‐polyoxyethylene surfactant based microemulsion was fastest in the system with the PTA (τ=66 min) and slightly slower without the PTA (τ=77 min). It was still slower in the two‐phase system with a PTA (τ=114 min) and extremely sluggish without a phase‐transfer agent. Withn‐alkyl β‐D‐glucopyranoside as the surfactant the conversion was twice as fast than in the former microemulsion systems, but the PTA did not accelerate the reaction further (τ=35 and 33 min). The epoxidation of vitamin K3, the second model system, was extremely accelerated. It proceeded a factor of approximately 35 faster in the microemulsion (τ=1.44 min) than in the corresponding two‐phase system (τ=57 min).

BACKGROUND.

Patients with invasive cancer identified at the time of prophylactic mastectomy (PM) will require axillary lymph node dissection for staging; therefore, many surgeons advocate sentinel lymph node (SLN) surgery at the time of PM. The current study investigates the invasive cancer rate in PM and evaluates factors associated with invasive cancer to guide SLN surgery use.

METHODS.

Patients undergoing PM at the M. D. Anderson Cancer Center between January 2000 and July 2005 were identified from a prospective database. Clinical, radiographic, and pathologic data were collected.

RESULTS.

A total of 409 patients (436 PM cases) were identified; 382 underwent contralateral PM (CPM) and 27 underwent bilateral PM (BPM). Cancer was identified in 22 of 436 PM cases (5%). Of these, 14 patients (64%) had ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). Only 8 patients (1.8%) had invasive cancer, with a mean tumor size of 5 mm (range, 2–9 mm). There was no difference in the occult cancer rate between CPM and BPM. No cases of invasive cancer were identified in the 23 patients with BRCA mutations. Significantly increased risk of invasive cancer in the PM breast was seen in postmenopausal patients (3.7%; P = .007), patients age >60 years (7.5%; P = .008), and patients with history of invasive lobular carcinoma (9.7%; P = .0002) or lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS) (7.7%; P = .008).

CONCLUSIONS.

The frequency of cancer in PM is very low and the majority represents DCIS. Therefore, routine use of SLN surgery in all patients undergoing PM is not warranted. However, patients at higher risk for whom SLN surgery should be considered include older women and patients with a history of lobular cancer or LCIS. Cancer 2006. © 2006 American Cancer Society.
