Avaliação de estratégia de enriquecimento com Cereus jamacaru dc. introduzido por propagação vegetativa em área de clareira no semiárido paraibano.
Authors:   , Amélia Pereira Lopes Iracy
Published: May 2023

A pesquisa objetivou avaliar as taxas de sobrevivência e de desenvolvimento de Cereus jamacaru DC., por propagação vegetativa em áreas de clareira no Semiárido paraibano. O trabalho foi efetuado no Espaço Experimental Reservado para Estudos de Ecologia e Dinâmica da Caatinga - Área II(7°39’42.03’’ S e 36°53’46.61’’ W; 528 m de altitude). Foi efetuado o plantio em três clareiras, totalizando 223 cladódios, dispostos em linhas no espaçamento de 1 m entre plantas e 2 m entre linhas. Realizou-se a medição de altura e diâmetro dos cladódios após o plantio, e o monitoramento mensal da sobrevivência e das fenofases reprodutivas. Aliado ao monitoramento foi levantado os dados de precipitação para o período do experimento, visando relacioná-los com o comportamento das plantas. Relacionado à mortalidade das plantas observou-se que não ocorreu nos meses seguintes ao plantio, mas a partir do mês de maio, quando foi registrado o pico com 33 indivíduos, sendo observada mortalidade ainda no mês de julho, quando se registrou a morte de nove indivíduos, perfazendo um percentual de 18,8% do total de cladódios implantados. Analisando os dados de precipitação para o período de maio a julho, observou-se a ocorrência de chuvas regulares e bem distribuídas, com um total acumulado nos três meses de 105,7 mm. Quanto à fenologia reprodutiva, tem-se que os cladódios começaram a expressar as fenofases no mês de maio, quando foi registrada a floração de 33 e frutificação de 21 indivíduos. Para o mês de junho observou-se o decréscimo no número de indivíduos, expressando floração (14) e frutificação (três). A dispersão só foi verificada no mês de julho em seis indivíduos. Analisando a ocorrência das fenofases e a precipitação registrada no período, tem-se que no mês de maio, quando ocorreram os picos de floração e frutificação, a precipitação ainda foi expressiva, se mantendo constante e bem distribuída também no mês de junho, quando houve um decréscimo da frutificação e iniciou a dispersão dos frutos. De modo geral, C. jamacaru apresentou-se viável para plantio em área de clareira, podendo se tornar uma alternativa de cultivo para os agricultores em suas propriedades, servindo como um importante componente biológico de ocupação de espaços e auxiliando na recuperação de áreas.

In dealing with the conflict in Papua, the Indonesian government has made various efforts, one of which is changing the status of the Free Papua Organization (OPM) which was originally defined as an armed criminal group, then changed to a terrorist group. The focus of this research is the change in the status of the OPM to the terrorist organization. This research is analytical with an explanatory approach that explains the reasons behind the policy taken by the Indonesian government to change the status of OPM to a terrorist organization. In collecting data to build arguments in this study using a literature study approach, where data is obtained from various literature sources such as books, journals, documents or reports, and also from internet sources that are considered relevant. The findings of this study can be illustrated that the Indonesian government's policy to change the status of the OPM to a terrorist organization has been motivated by several reasons, including: OPM has met the definitive requirements as a terrorist; expanding the space for the Indonesian government to deal with the OPM, including facilitating the tracking and blocking of funding for the OPM movement; To gain legitimacy from any efforts or steps taken to confront OPM; Using the "war on terror" norm to reduce the perception of human rights violations committed by the Indonesian government.
Language Death in Akoko-Edo: A Study of Some Students’ Attitude to Native Dialects in Akoko-Edo, Edo-State
Authors: A.F. Egele , M.L. Ugheoke
Published: May 2023

Language is God’s special gift to mankind. Without language, human civilization, as we now know it, would have remained impossible. It is a carrier of civilization and culture, as human thoughts and philosophy are conveyed from one generation to the other through the medium of language. However, just like living things, languages die. Language death occurs when there are no more speakers of a particular language. In Edo-State, Akoko-Edo Local Government Area (LGA) to be precise, some indigenous dialects are about to go into extinction. Therefore, this paper examines the attitude of students to some native dialects in Akoko-Edo Local Government Area of Edo-State. The study used questionnaires to gather data on students’ perspective on why they think some native dialects in this particular part of the state are going into extinction. The results revealed that a considerable number of students’ attitude to their native dialects were not positive. The study revealed that various social phenomena have greatly affected some native dialects in Akoko-Edo Local Government Area. In the light of the results, the study recommends that necessary measures and awareness be created to sustain these threatened dialects. This is because young people constitute the future of the nation and if this trend is not checked, it will affect the coming generations.

Published: May 2023

Acceptability and consumption of operational rations are objects of study in several world
armed forces due to the frequent history of underconsumption. In this scope, this article sought
to identify, in an unprecedented way, the perception of military personnel about the menus in
the operational environment of the jungle, a strategic region for national defense, by
associating data obtained with an electronic questionnaire and a qualitative instrument of focus
groups. The results showed the perception of high technology, but showed opportunities for
improvement in terms of monotony, nutritional profile, and well-being in consumption. The focus
groups emphasized demands for nutritional adaptations and increased menu variety. It was
observed that a fraction of the menus presents consumption lower than 75% of the volume offered,
indicating the need for reformulations, aiming to mitigate underconsumption and impacts on
operability. Therefore, complementary studies are suggested, providing opportunities for the
development of products that are more adapted to the strategic environment of the jungle.

Authors: Faustini Luca , Zandonai Flaviano
Published: May 2023

La pandemia da Covid-19 ha imposto un drastico e repentino ripensamento dei sistemi di welfare, non solo in campo sanitario. Tra le varie misure si segnalano i ‘buoni spesa alimentari’, ovvero trasferimenti monetari volti a sostenere i consumi alimentari di persone e famiglie in difficoltà. Il paper analizza il caso della piattaforma welfareX© che ha digitalizzato il processo di assegnazione dei buoni, consentendo di profilare i beneficiari e di raccogliere i loro feedback anche attraverso modalità non convenzionali, ma comunque ricche di apprendimenti per comprendere i percorsi di trasformazione digitale del welfare.

The real income channel and contractionary devaluations in a heterogeneous agent model for Latin America
Authors: Campos Rodolfo , Paz Peter
Published: May 2023

Rationale

In Latin America, it is not unusual to see exchange rate depreciations in excess of 20% in a single year. Although depreciation tends to stimulate a country’s net external demand, it does not always lead to increased output. It is worth understanding which channels may explain this outcome.

Takeaways

•In conventional macroeconomic theory, exchange rate depreciations have expansionary effects on economic activity. However, the empirical evidence shows that, in the case of emerging market economies, devaluing the exchange rate may cause output to contract.

•One channel that explains this evidence, known as the real income channel, operates through the erosion of purchasing power as a result of rising prices for imported goods, which can lead to a fall in the real consumption of households with limited access to financial markets.

•This article discusses a heterogeneous agent model calibrated for the main Latin American economies that allows the importance of this channel to be measured. The results show that this channel may have a sizable macroeconomic impact, particularly on economies more open to international trade.
Screening of Actinomycetes effects against Pathogen causing Bacterial Blight of Pomegranate
Authors: Bendigeri M. M , Pathade G.R , Chonde S.G , Attar Y.C
Published: May 2023

Pomegranate is called ‘fruit of paradise’ due to its versatile uses. Its fruit, leaves, stem all have nutritional as well as medicinal uses. However, pomegranate yield is adversely affected by infection of plant by various plant pathogens. One of the major harmful diseases is bacterial blight of pomegranate [commonly known as ‘telya disease’] caused by Xanthomonas axonopodis PV punicae. The pathogen affects the fruit, leaves as well as stem. A variety of approaches have been tried to control the disease including cultivation methods, use of botanicals, use of antibiotics, use of chemicals etc. However, no single therapy has been found to be a sure shot control method. The current research work has been designed to achieve the control of disease using biological agent. Here, specifically actinomycetes were isolated from healthy pomegranate cultivated soils. During this research, 24 different actinomycete cultures were isolated and purified. All these cultures were tested for antagonistic activity against bacterial blight pathogen by giant colony technique. The antagonistic activity was determined by calculating inhibition ratio. The inhibition ratio is the ratio of total length of inhibitory area to the total length of streak line. Some actinomycete isolates showed promising antagonistic activity against Xanthomonas axonopodis. Further work is in progress.

Cotton (Gossypium spp.) is a profitable commercial crop that spans over 33 million hectares in 77 countries and is a vital source of natural fibre globally. It is extensively grown in India and supports over 60 million Indians, including 6 million farmers, the majority of whom are small and marginal farmers. The current study used a randomised block design with two replications and a spacing of 90 cm x 60 cm to explore 89 cultivars from one frequently planted tetraploid species (G. hirsutum) in an areolate mildew hotspot in Odisha during the kharif of 2019, 2020, and 2021. The infector row technique was utilised to supplement natural disease pressure, and the severity of grey mildew was graded on a 0-4 scale. Among all the genotypes tested GSHV-159 and GISV-272 were reported to be disease free. While 32 genotypes shown only moderate resistance to the disease, 22 entries had consistently strong resistance over three years. These genotypes can be used as Grey mildew resistant donors. Twenty-four of the types tested were vulnerable to grey mildew, while the remaining nine germplasms were extremely sensitive to the fungus. These findings support cotton producers, particularly small, marginal, and tenant farmers, in selecting the best genotypes with resistance to grey mildew disease, a hazard to the environment, the economy and most importantly, sustainable crop production.

Published: May 2023

Chilli is an important spice, vegetable as well as cash crop of Gujarat, mostly cultivated in Kharif season, which is quite remunerative to farmers. Chilli is prone to several diseases, but anthracnose is a most devastating caused by fungus Colletotrichum capsici (Sydow) Butler and Bisby and one of the major constraints in chilli cultivation throughout the world. In the present study various systemic acquired resistance activators tested against chilli anthracnose during 2018, 2019 and 2020 at College of Horiculture, S.D. Agricultural University, Jagudan, Mehsana Gujarat. Data clearly revealed that minimum per cent disease intensity and highest green chilli yield was observed in seed soaking + foliar spray of Azoxystrobin 1000 ppm which was at par with seed soaking + foliar spray of Salicylic acid (SA) 100 ppm during individual year and pooled data also. Azoxystrobin and Salicylic acid (SA) induced systemic acquired resistance by increasing defense enzymes peroxidase (PO), polyphenol oxidase (PPO), phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL), -1, 3 glucanase, chitinase, catalase and defense-inducing chemicals (total phenols). Azoxystrobin is also registered in CIBRC for management of chilli anthracnose with PHI 5 days
A Review on Soil Carbon Sequestration in Different Land Use and Land Cover
Authors: Prakash Tanu , Shimrah Tuisem
Published: May 2023

Decomposing organic matter and soil are crucial components of the global carbon cycle in terrestrial environments where carbon is stored in living biomass. Carbon is transferred between these systems and the atmosphere through photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and combustion. Human activities alter the carbon stocks in these pools by altering the land use patterns of the region. Hence, soils are both carbon sources and sink with great potential to reduce climate change. In the significant terrestrial carbon sink, soil holds twice as much carbon as the atmosphere and vegetation combined. After being the primary terrestrial carbon storage of the planet, even so, there is strong evidence that over the past several decades, significant amounts of carbon have been lost from soils of natural and agricultural ecosystems due to erosion, leaching, and enhanced soil respiration. Therefore, even a minor change will significantly affect soil carbon sequestration, the global carbon cycle, and climate change. The dynamics of soil organic carbon are strongly influenced by land use management; however, the impact varies depending on the climate, soils, and management techniques. Thus, a thorough understanding of soil organic carbon pool changes and their fractions is required to minimize carbon emissions and implement effective land use planning for sustainable soil management. This paper reviews the literature on carbon sequestration in soil and the effects of land use conversions on soil carbon stocks.

EFFICACY OF HERBICIDES AND SHADING METHODS TO CONTROL INVASIVE SPHAGNETICOLA TRILOBATA (L.) PRUSKI
Authors: Limon Md. Sharif Hasan , Tuhin Md. Sajjad Hossain , Rahman Md. Saidur
Published: May 2023

Sphagneticola trilobata (L.) Pruski is one of the most noxious invasive plant species, posing a serious threat to native biodiversity. This species has been invading large areas of Bangladesh for the last two decades. The study investigated the efficacy of herbicides and shading treatments during winter and monsoon to find an effective control method for S. trilobata. Both surface-inhabiting (Glyphosate) and root-inhabiting (Paraquat) herbicides were applied for six months in five different combinations (100% Glyphosate, 75% Glyphosate + 25% Paraquat, 50% Glyphosate + 50% Paraquat, 25% Glyphosate + 75% Paraquat, and 100% Paraquat) and the percentage coverage was measured for each experimental plot. Results from the study showed that all shading and chemical combinations of Glyphosate and Paraquat significantly reduced the percentage coverage of S. trilobata in each experimental plot (p < 0.05). However, the shading and Paraquat-dominated combinations reduced the coverage slowly compared to the Glyphosate-dominated ones. Among five different combinations, Paraquat-dominated herbicides were less effective in controlling the species. On the other hand, the Glyphosate-dominated combinations completely eradicated the species within a week but increased thereafter. Meanwhile, the seasonal variation was found to be highly significant (p < 0.0001) among treatments, and a significant reduction was observed in winter compared to the monsoon. The results of this study highlighted that the Glyphosate-dominated combinations were the fastest, while the Paraquat-dominated combinations and shading were slower control methods.
African Union, Promotion of Democracy and Anti-Corruption Initiatives in Africa
Authors: Ayodeji Gafar Idowu , Kolade Adegboyega Francis , Abiodun Emmanuel Temitope
Published: May 2023

The African Union (AU) has been pursuing one of its primary objectives of promoting democratic principles and institutions by ensuring good governance through the curbing of corruption. It is uncertain whether the democratic approach has rubbed off on its anti-corruption initiatives, given the recent performance of most AU member states on many global surveys of corruption, development and governance evaluation indexes. The paper, therefore, examined the extent to which the AU’s stance on democratic promotion has impacted on its anti-corruption initiatives in Africa. The study is qualitative and relied on data sourced from secondary sources, while content analysis was adopted for data analysis. The findings acknowledge AU's committed advancement of democracy in Africa through its different anti-corruption frameworks. But in spite of the slight improvements of some African counties on different corruption perception indexes, corruption persists in the governance of many AU member states. The study further shows inter alia that the AU’s anti-corruption initiatives have noteffectively reflected the adopted measures due to uncommon democratic ideals, legitimisation of autocratic regimes, and the fact that many African states fail to uphold their obligations under the AU's anti-corruption convention. The study contends that AU’s anti-corruption bodies should ensure and encourage member states to internalise and uphold existing governance norms and accountability measures, while implementation mechanisms should be strengthened.
Global Governance and the Role of Intergovernmental Organisations in Promoting Global Peace and Security
Authors: Aluede Jackson A. , Agbawn Matthew Onalo
Published: May 2023

This paper examines the role of intergovernmental organisations (IGOs) in promoting international peace and security in different parts of the world. The paper reveals that the post-World War II international system ushered in a new era that witnessed not only the proliferation of IGOs driven by the desire to promote peace and security in their respective regions, but also, engaged in peacekeeping missions in restoring stability in conflict zones. The paper affirms that the provision of Chapter VIII of the United Nations (UN) Charter is instrumental in the increase in the number of IGOs across different regions of the world. The paper establishes that one of the fundamental achievements arising from the establishment of IGOs is that it has enabled the respective regions of the world to respond to the outbreak of violent conflicts through peacekeeping and other conflict resolution mechanisms. The paper examines the role of IGOs in promoting international peace and security through the lenses of global governance. Global governance is both a phenomenon and theory that provides explanations on the factors that influenced the nature, pattern, and processes of international organisations, especially IGOs since the post-Cold War period. The paper admonishes world leaders to embrace the propositions of global governance, as it would enable them to achieve their objectives. It utilises both primary and secondary sources to analyse and interpret the subject matter.
State and Dilemma of Post-Colonial Nigeria: An Explanatory Perspective of Security Governance Failure
Authors: Obikaeze Victor C. , Udoh Ogbonnaya N. , Adebogun Olayinka B. , Enapeh Oluchi
Published: May 2023

The post-colonial Nigerian state has experienced series of internal political altercations due to the consistent and persistent behavioural patterns of the political elites, whose inordinate political ambitions have often revolved around appropriating state apparatuses as well as primordial forces for their personal aggrandisement, against the majoritarian vital primary interest of the downtrodden. To this effect, governance has suffered over the years in the hands of the recycled dominant political class that has produced and manipulated institutions of government, thereby deepening copiously and rapaciously spatial social and economic inequalities between the elite and masses. In view of this circumstance, the study is aimed at x-raying the explanatory contradictions responsible for security governance failure in Nigeria after decades of political independence. The study adopted qualitative-descriptive method and relied on secondary sources of data collection. The ‘‘theory of post-colonial state’’ is employed as the main underpinning analytical construct that scientifically studies the society as a whole, and takes into consideration the convergence of ‘unity of the opposites’.
Impact of Public Debts Accumulation on Economic Growth in Nigeria: Issues and Implications for Economic Recovery
Authors: Eze Titus Chinweuba , Ukwueni Nnaemeka Ole
Published: May 2023

This paper interrogates the rationale behind federal government continued reliance on Keynesian’s fiscal policy prescriptions of deficit financing as a way of spurring sustained economic growth and development in Nigeria, especially when such ideology seems to contrast sharply with the realities of dwindling economic growth indices. In particular, this study investigates the extent both external debt and domestic debt impact on economic growth in Nigeria. Multiple regression method was adopted while Autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model was the main technique used in the analysis. The results of the ARDL model demonstrate that external debt (LEXD) and domestic debt (LDD) have a negative impact on LGDP. However, while external debt reveals a significant effect, domestic debt (LDD) has an insignificant impact on LGDP. Thus, the study recommends that government should discontinue the use of external debt to finance budget deficit in the economy, but look inward through aggressive internal revenue generation as well as embrace economic diversification policies, coupled with a drastic cut down on cost of governance in Nigeria.
Rising Working Poverty, Dependency Ratio and its Effect on Labour Productivity in Sub-Saharan Africa
Authors: Usman Usman A. , Abubakar Sadiq A.
Published: May 2023

This study seeks to analyse the effect of demographic patterns, dependency ratio, and population growth rate on labour productivity. The study employed the panel data set comprising seventeen (17) countries of Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), spanning 2001 to 2022 and retrieved from World Development Indicators (WDI). The linear model approach and robust generalised least square technique were applied. Working poverty female aged 15 to 24 and male 15 to 24 reveal a positive and significant relationship with labour productivity. Similarly, working poverty female aged 25 and above, male 25 and above and dependency ratio exert a negative and significant effect on the outcome variable. Population growth also has a positive sign. Since members of both sex groups aged 15 to 24 are crucial to driving productivity levels, institutions need to focus on addressing social welfare and providing decent work and environment for these categories to improve productivity.
Problemas en la utopía: reflexiones sobre el discurso estético en el arte contemporáneo
Authors: Vico Prieto Antonio Félix , Cagigas Ángel
Published: May 2023

Este artículo analiza las razones de que gran parte del arte contemporáneo siga siendo una experiencia no asimilada aún en nuestros días, centrándose en el estudio de los factores que potencialmente determinan la experiencia estética en nuestra época, planteando una reflexión que relaciona áreas de conocimientos culturales, artísticos e históricos, con vistas a ofrecer un trabajo que profundice en los procesos creativos del arte contemporáneo y en el origen del desapego entre arte contemporáneo y público. Las teorías sobre la presencia de la cultura romántica y la necesidad de un nuevo espectador pueden ofrecer luz para situarnos en la realidad del problema, y posiblemente el exceso de discurso estético sea la causa del mismo, así como el abandono de la teoría de proporción y armonía en las artes plásticas y visuales, y la renuncia a la idea de narración en el arte musical.
Hacia un radioarte expandido
Authors: Rocha Iturbide Manuel
Published: May 2023

En este ensayo propongo abrir el concepto de radio­ar­te para enriquecer el género y acercarlo más a los dis­tintos estilos estéticos de la música electroacústica y del arte sonoro, ya que las instituciones radiofónicas y sus protagonistas se han ensimismado en una escue­ta y limitada definición de géneros del arte radial, que ha limitado las posibilidades expresivas de este interesante espacio eléctrico. Es necesario hacer un análisis comparativo de los lenguajes de estos tres campos (radioarte, arte sonoro y música electroacústica) para en­contrar sus convergencias. A partir de ahí, intento que los radioartistas se acerquen a los estilos estéticos de la electroacústica y del arte conceptual, y que los músicos y artistas de otras disciplinas se aproximen al radio­arte. Finalmente, hago un análisis histórico crítico del papel de las instituciones radiofónicas y culturales de México en un contexto internacional, recono­ciendo su papel protagonista en Latinoamérica, y proponiendo un apoyo mayor en la creación y difusión de obras sonoras para la radio.
Rulfo fotógrafo, más que un universo personal
Authors: De Luna Andrés
Published: May 2023

Hablar del escritor mexicano Juan Rulfo es exaltar una fi­gura literaria cuya fama rebasó fronteras con sólo dos libros: Pedro Páramo y El llano en llamas. En estos volú­menes aparecía lo nacional como una referencia obligada. Sin embargo, hay otra zona en la obra de Rul­fo en la que la estética de la fotografía aparece en primer plano. A pesar de su calidad artística, él se conside­raba un fotógrafo aficionado; nunca quiso compartir créditos con los grandes maestros de aquel tiempo mexica­no, como Lola o Manuel Álvarez Bravo, Nacho Ló­pez o Kati Horna. Ubicar sus imágenes junto con su literatura nos da una visión enriquecida de Rulfo. En este espacio se mostrará a un Rulfo fotógrafo que se expresa en imágenes que están a la altura de sus libros.

Authors: Khan Sameera Jamshed Ali , Awaisi Zubair Hassan , Ahmed Zubair
Published: May 2023

Collum angle, supplementary angle between longitudinal axis of crown-to-root, is an important consideration in patients receiving orthodontic treatment This angulation in labio-lingual direction is a key factor for proper occlusion and is greatly affected by lower lip line levels in different malocclusions. Objective: To find the relationship between collum angle of maxillary central incisor and lower lip line in patients presenting with different malocclusions. Methods: Cross-sectional, Comparative Study conducted in Orthodontics department of Nishtar Institute of Dentistry, Multan.From September 2020 to February 2021. Lateral cephalometric radiographs of 105 patients (39 males and 66 females)were selected with age range of 9-30 years. Patients were divided in 4 groups i.e Class I, Class II div I, Class II div II and class III. Collum angle was measured along with assessing lower lip-line level with central incisor. One-way ANOVA test was applied to compare level of lower lip and collum angle. Results: Mean value of collum angle was 5.82˚±5˚ for class I, 3.68˚ ± 9˚ for class II div I, 11.7˚± 5˚ for class II div II, and 6.88˚± 7 ˚for class III. Collum angle of maxillary central incisor was greatly increased in patients with class II div II malocclusion than other groups. Conclusions: Collum angle found to be highest in class II div II malocclusion group. Lower lip line resting on middle third level of maxillary central incisor crown in div II group explains this exceeding value of collum angle

The distribution of questionnaires used in the study obtained a sample of 77 respondents. This research was tested using path analysis, the results of the study concluded that ethical ideology (idealism) has a positive effect on ethical judgment and can be mediated by professional commitment, while ethical ideology (relativism) hurts ethical judgment and can be mediated by professional commitment. This study shows that the higher the moral idealism of an auditor, the higher the auditor's desire to comply with the rules and principles of accounting ethics compared to auditors who have moral relativism. Relativistic auditors tend to be unprofessional and more lenient when making ethical decisions

Authors: Ovharhe Orugba Harry , Abada Amarachukwu Mary
Published: May 2023

This study investigated pre and post-IFRS adoption and entrepreneurial intentions from 2006-2017 using Panel Data from annual financial statement of quoted companies. Data for the study were obtained from secondary sources and analysed using Eview9 statistical package namely: ADF Unit Root Test, Panel Cointegration test; Bayesian Error Correction Model, Panel OLS among others. Data for the work were drawn with purposive sampling techniques from samples of 72 observations Nigeria stock exchange statistical Bulletins. The R-square (Coefficient of Determination) shows an explanation of Pre IFRS (0.280213) and Post IFRS (0.440826) percent of the employed model, i.e. Pre IFRS=28%; Post IFRS 44% and of the variance of the criterion variable is explained by the predictor variable. Which shows how well-fitted the regression is based on the unique theoretical combinations of variables. The Durbin-Watson being a test for auto/serial correlation shows an output of Post IFRS is 1.434594, while Pre IFRS is 1.428219 which signifies the absence of a serial or autocorrelation of the residual (error term) and appears to be within the relevant range. The F-statistics testing the overall hypothesis of the slope coefficient displays a very significant long run relationship based on the statistic output of Post IFRS (6.109727); Pre IFRS (0.004044) at a probability level of Post IFRS (0.000957); Pre IFRS (6.423459) which is less than the critical value of 0.05 (0.00 < 0.05). Therefore, overall we reject null hypothesis and alternate that there is significant (short-run and long-run) relationship between employed variables but in favour with Post IFRS adoption on entrepreneurial intentions. We therefore recommend among others that entrepreneurial intention should focus to boost the long term benefits of all total asset, current asset, non-current asset and profitability index in line with IFRS value relevance reporting accounting techniques.
Serological and genetic diversity of hepatitis E virus among rabbits population in Egypt
Authors: Adly Ahmed
Published: May 2023

Background:
Hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection has a worldwide distribution and represents an important cause of acute hepatitis. Data on rabbit HEV prevalence and genetic divеrsity in hyperendemic regions (Egypt) are limited, as is informatiоn on rabbit HEV’s imрlications for human pathology.
Aim:
The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of HEV-infection in farmed rabbits from hyреrеndemic (Egypt) regions, as well as to examine the genetic relatedness of rabbit strains to human strains isolated in these regions.
Methods:
Anti-HEV was tested by ELISA form 164 serum samples isolated from rabbits in Egypt. HEV RNA was tested using RT-PCR with degenerative рrimеrs to ORF2 in fеcеs samples from 355 farmed rabbits from Egypt (3 farms from different regions).
Results:
All of the animals were between the ages of 2 and 24 months. Age groups at various governorates, with the bulk of infections occurring between the ages of 2 and 12 month. HEV RNA prevalence in rabbits at age between 2-12 months was variеd in differеnt govеrnoratе from 13.40%, 18.20% and 32.10% in Qena, Luxоr and Assiut, rеspеctivеly. While at age between 12-24 months HEV RNA prеvalence in rabbits was 0.0%, 3.70% and 4.30% in Assiut, Qеna and Luxor rеspеctively. Phylogеnetic analysis did not rеveal any relatedness of rabbit HEV strains neithеr to HEV gеnоtype 3 sеquеnces from patients with autоchthоnous hеpatitis E in Egypt.
Conclusion:
HEV is prеvalеnt in rabbits from Egypt with other rabbit strains belоnging to spеcies-specific grоup which is clоse to gеnоtype 3.
