Authors: CANPOLAT Ergin , KESERCİ Ferhat , DÖKER Mehmet Fatih
Published: April 2021

İnsanoğlunun artan nüfusuyla birlikte genişleyen yerleşim ve yaşam alanları, artan görüntüleme sistemleri ve ağ paylaşımları hortumlara ilişkin daha fazla haberin gündem olmasını sağlamaktadır. Oluşum mekanizmaları kasırgalara benzetilmekle beraber henüz tam olarak açıklanamamış olan hortumların dar alanlarda, kısa mesafeli koridorlar içerisinde oluşturdukları yıkım, tahribat güçleri ve verdikleri zararlar onların haber konusu olmalarında etkili hususlardır. Kara ve su hortumlarının oluşum özelliklerinin ve dağılışlarının ele alındığı bu çalışmada, özellikle Antalya İli Finike ve Kumluca ilçe sınırları içerisinde hortum olaylarının gerçekleştiği dört farklı gün seçilerek, hortum oluşum süreçleri sinoptik ve yerel meteorolojik verilerle açıklanmaya çalışılmıştır. Kumluca ve Finike ilçe tarım müdürlüklerinin hasar tespit çalışmaları kapsamında düzenledikleri, 2010-2020 yılları arasında yaşanan afetlere ilişkin verilerden de yararlanılmıştır. Hortumların oluşturduğu hasarlara örnek oluşturması bakımından 24.01.2019 tarihinde yaşanan hortumun ve etkileri incelenmiştir. Yapılan araştırma ile; Finike ve Kumluca’da yaşanan hortum hadislerinin çoğunlukla su hortumları olduğu, hortumların kış mevsiminde özellikle ocak ayında daha fazla yaşandığı, su hortumlarının oluşumunda, yöreye yaklaşan siklonik sistemlerin ve frontal özellikleri ile kara ve deniz dağılışı ile yüksek reliefin etkili olduğu, buna karşılık deniz suyu sıcaklığının etkisinin fazla olmadığı elde edilen sonuçlardır. Hortumların, farklı günlerde fakat birbirine benzeyen meteorolojik koşullarda oluşmaları, erken uyarı sistemlerinin geliştirilmesini mümkün kılmaktadır. Erken uyarı sistemlerinin, hortumların oluşturacağı can kayıplarının önlenmesinde etkili olacağı, ulaşılan sonuçlar arasındadır.
Küre Dağlarının Kastamonu iklimi üzerindeki etkileri
Authors: COŞKUN Selahi
Published: April 2021

Küre Dağları; Kastamonu şehri ve bir kısım ilçelerin yer aldığı geniş bir topografyayı, kıyı bölgesinden ayırır. Dağların engebeli yapısı, kısa mesafede iklim elemanlarının farklılık göstermesine ve buna bağlı olarak mikroklima sahalarının oluşmasını sağlar. Kıyı gerisinde bir duvar gibi yükselen bu dağlar, deniz etkisinin iç kısımlara farklı derecelerden sokulmasında önemli bir rol oynar. Karadeniz Bölgesinin enlem değerleri; ılımanlık ve mevsim özelliklerini ortaya çıkararak, bölgenin yer aldığı iklim kuşağını tayin eder. Ancak asıl kendi içerisindeki değişimin sebebi, Karadeniz’in varlığı ve Küre dağlarının özellikleridir. Bu sayede kıyıda belirgin olmayan sıcaklık farkları ve sıcaklık değerlerindeki iniş-çıkışlar içeride belirginleşir. Don olayları artar ve bahar aylarına sarkar. Rüzgârların hızı, kıyıdaki istasyonlarda 2-3 misli daha fazladır. Atmosferdeki nem değerleriyle birlikte bulutluluk seviyelerinde uyumsuzluk ortaya çıkar. Yağış değerleri, dağ engelini aşamadığından yarı yarıya düşer. Küre dağları; kıyı kesimini Karadeniz iklim kuşağına dahil ederken, İç bölgeleri daha çok karasal iklim bölgelerine yakınlaştırır. İç kısımlardaki istasyonların kış sıcaklıklarındaki düşük değerler ve yaz yağışlarındaki artış Kuzeydoğu Anadolu iklimine benzerliği yansıtmaktadır. Kıyı ile iç kısımların arasında yer alan coğrafi engellerin, bölge iklimine etkisine bir örnek olarak hazırlanan bu çalışmada; kıyı istasyonlarından İnebolu ve Cide, iç kısımda yer alan Kastamonu istasyonu ile karşılaştırılmıştır. İlk olarak bölgeyi ilgilendiren genel coğrafi özellikler ele alınmış, daha sonra karşılaştırmalı olarak, sırasıyla iklim elemanlarından bahsedilmiştir.
Türkiye’de yağış ölçümü yapılan manuel-otomatik meteoroloji gözlem istasyonu verilerinin karşılaştırılması
Authors: YILMAZ Erkan , DARENDE Volkan
Published: April 2021

Türkiye’de 2000’li yıllarda otomatik meteoroloji gözlem istasyonları (OMGİ) kurulmaya başlanmış ve istasyon sayısı yıllar içerisinde artmıştır. Bu istasyonlar, ya halihazırda manuel ölçümlerin yapıldığı istasyonlarla aynı yerde faaliyete geçerek, ya da daha önce hiç ölçüm yapılmayan yeni yerlerde kurularak işlerlik kazanmıştır. Geçmiş dönemde manuel ölçümlerin yapıldığı istasyonların bir kısmında OMGİ’ler bir süre eşzamanlı çalıştırıldıktan sonra manuel ölçümler sonlandırılmış, bir kısmında ise günümüze dek devam ettirilmiştir. OMGİ’lerin kurulmasından sonra, insan tarafından yapılan ölçümler ile makine ölçümleri şeklinde iki farklı ölçüm oluşmuş, çoğu zaman bu iki ölçüm birbirinden farklı değerler göstermiştir. Bu da iklim ve iklim değişimi çalışmaları için önemli bir problem olarak ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu çalışmada, Türkiye’de yağış ölçümü yapılan istasyonların bir envanteri yapılmış, OMGİ ve manuel ölçüm yapılan istasyonlardaki (MANUEL) eşzamanlı ölçümler değerlendirilmiştir. İki ölçümün eşzamanlı yapıldığı aylık toplam yağışlar incelenmiş, iki veri arasındaki ilişkiler doğrusal regresyon ile analiz edilmiştir. Analizler neticesinde, regresyon sabitinin değerlendirilmesi ile düşük yağışlarda, OMGİ istasyonlarının MANUEL istasyonlara göre daha hassas olduğu görülmüştür. Regresyon katsayısı değerlendirildiğinde ise, yağış miktarı arttığında MANUEL istasyonların daha fazla yağış kaydettiği ve OMGİ’lerde daha düşük yağışlar ölçüldüğü görülmüştür. Neticede, OMGİ ve MANUEL istasyon kullanılarak yapılacak analizlerde veri düzenlemesinin yapılması gerektiği, iki veri hassasiyetinin farklı olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır.

Design of two-dimensional perovskite solar cells with superior efficiency and stability
Authors: Ramírez Daniel , Jaramillo Franklin
Published: April 2021

Pervskite solar cells have attracted extensive attention from researchers worldwide due to their rapid development and efficiency. Nevertheless, stability is still an issue that limits the advance of this technology. In this work, we present the fabrication and characterization of two-dimensional perovskites of the Ruddlesden-Popper’s family (A)2(MA)n−1PbnI3n+1 (three different A-site large cations were investigated: A=n-propylammonium, t-Butylammonium or Benzylammonium). The modulation of the large organic cations increased the band gap of the materials and improved moisture and thermal stability, making it possible to fabricate PSCs. Even though the organic interlayers intrinsically reduce the transport properties of the devices and therefore lower currents are obtained in the layered systems, a remarkable efficiency of 10.35% was obtained for (BUA)2(MA)2Pb3I10, with superior stability, and therefore, it was possible to retain 68% of its initial value after 1700 h for devices without encapsulation.

Authors: Tamimi Mohammad J. M. A. , Sharif Anna R. , Sedeeq Saad T. , Hamed Ehab
Published: April 2021

Background: Anxiety screening in primary care is crucial for the identification and management of the condition. The generalized anxiety disorder-2 (GAD-2) is an abridged version of the tool composed of the first two questions of the GAD-7 for screening for anxiety in the general adult population in primary care settings. Patients who score more than 3 points are further evaluated for anxiety. Although there is a growing body of literature documenting the psychometric properties of the GAD-2 against a structured interview and the GAD-7, no earlier studies have assessed the performance of the GAD-2 in Qatar. This cross-sectional study primarily aims to examine the sensitivity, specificity, positive (PPV) and negative predictive values (NPV) of GAD-2 scores for detecting anxiety among patients attending PHCC in Qatar.

Methods: The study will employ a periodic cross-sectional study of electronic medical record data of adult patients attending the primary health care settings between January of 2017 and December of 2019. The study population will include all adult population with documented GAD-7 scores. We will exclude all patients with other mental health diagnoses, including mental disability, schizophrenia, and dementia.

Conclusions: GAD-2 questionnaire forms an easy to administer screening tool. The cut-off value in various international settings is set at a score of equal to or more than 3. The study will report on the diagnostic properties of GAD-2 scores against the documented diagnosis of anxiety by health care professionals. The result helps to tailor the cut-off value to its local settings.

Authors: Krueger Kathryn J. , Rahman Faith , Shen Qiuhua , Hiebert John B. , Pierce Janet D.
Published: April 2021

The COVID-19 pandemic is having a major impact on how current clinical trials are being conducted in the United States. Researchers have experienced the effects of COVID-19 through the halting and delaying of clinical trials, the lack of personal protection equipment (PPE), the closing of clinical sites, and a decrease in participant recruitment. Many clinical trials will have more missing data because of a participant’s inability to attend in-person visits, discontinuation of trial activities, or interruption of time-sensitive study collection data due to COVID-19. All of these events affect the data quality of trials. Government agencies such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), centers for disease control and prevention (CDC), and National Institutes Of Health (NIH) have issued recommendations for investigators conducting clinical trials to combat the spread of COVID-19 and to maintain data integrity. Institutions sponsoring clinical trials have also provided guidelines to continue, modify, or pause research studies that are essential to ensure participant and research team safety. Key recommendations include implementing telehealth appointments, wearing a protective mask and face shield, quarantining for 14 days if exposed to COVID-19 or having travelled, and, if possible, maintaining a 6-foot distance. It is also recommended that investigators implement COVID-19 screening questionnaires prior to and during on-site visits. This includes participants and research personnel completing a temperature check and questionnaire screen before in-person data collection. This article will discuss the challenges encountered by researchers conducting clinical trials and provide resources and examples to assist investigators during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Authors: Selim Shahjada , Lona Hafiza
Published: April 2021

Background: Telemedicine has been promoted as an economical and effective way to enhance patient care, but the experience and its outcome in the diabetes management are not well understood. Thus, this study aims to assess the experiences and outcomes of diabetes management by tele-consultation.Methods: A comparative study included 958 patients with T2DM attending the clinics for diabetes management. Of them 467 (48.75%) patients consulted the endocrinologists through telemedicine and 491 (51.25%) patients attended the clinics physically during the study period.Results: The mean age was 58.5±4.3 years in telemedicine group and 55.8±5.1 years in the physically attending group. Male patients comprised about half [46.03% in telemedicine group; 51.32% in physically attending group)] of the study population and around half [55.46% in telemedicine, 44.54% in physically attending group] of them came from urban areas. The majority of patients were on MNT along with 2 or more OADs [42.18% versus 40.53%; p 0.90]. Among telemedicine users, 59.74% visited the clinic as regular follow up visits and the highest number of patients [49.67% (232)] used video calling, apps, WhatsApp. About 62.21% (291) of the telemedicine users did not face any difficulties in communication. Two-fifths of the participants (40.02%) required assistance for communication; 74.09% of the patients could understand the advices and instructions of the physicians and 76.45% found it cost effective and more than four-fifths of them admitted that telemedicine could save time. The majority of patients with T2DM (91.43%) were satisfied with telemedicine service.Conclusions: For most patients with T2DM, telemedicine can be as good, or even better than, in-person care, especially for those who face geographical and time barriers to access during COVID-19 pandemic and may be afterword. population.

Authors: Murmu Rituparna , Das Amartya , Roychoudhury Swarupa
Published: April 2021

Background: Shivering is a common problem during neuraxial block. Thermoregulatory control gets compromised by neyraxial block and as a result the incidence of shivering can go up to 56.7%. Aim of the current investigation was to evaluate the effectiveness of prophylactic use of intravenous dexmedetomidine and ketamine for the control of shivering and to note any side-effects of the drugs used during subarachnoid block.Methods: This randomised single blind study was conducted in 151 ASA grade I and II patients. SAB was performed with 3.0mL (15 mg) of 0.5% bupivacaine heavy in all patients. Patients were randomly allocated into two groups of 75 and 76each to receive dexmedetomidine (0.5 µg/kg) in group D and ketamine (0.5 mg/kg) in group K respectively. Temperature and hemodynamic parameters were recorded at every 15mins interval. Shivering was graded from 0 to 4 according to Tsai and Chu and if grade 3 shivering occurred, the study was stopped and pethidine 25 mg was given intravenously as rescue drug.Results: 2.67% of patients in group D had shivering whereas 38.16% patients in group K experienced shivering at the 5th minute after spinal anaesthesia and it was statistically significant. However the difference in the incidence of shivering was not statistically significant between the two groups after the initial 5 minutes till the end of surgery.Conclusions: The prophylactic use of dexmedetomidine reduced incidences of shivering more effectively as compared to prophylactic use of ketamine. None of the drugs caused any untoward side effects.

Authors: Bugallo Verónica
Published: April 2021

El género Salvia posee gran valor ornamental, numerosas variedades en el mercado mundial y cuenta con alrededor de 900 especies, 19 de las cuales son nativas de Argentina. Salvia coccinea es una de la especies argentinas con mayor potencial ya que posee gran rusticidad, vigor y flores muy vistosas de un color rojo intenso. Sin embargo, al abordar el mejoramiento en esta especie, los problemas que se presentan son la dificultad para la hibridación interespecífica y la escasa variación fenotípica que expresa la especie. Para aumentar la variabilidad genética en programas de mejoramiento de plantas ornamentales, la aplicación de técnicas de inducción de mutaciones es ideal ya que puede modificar características de las flores, del follaje, del hábito de crecimiento y de variables fisiológicas. Con el objetivo de obtener variabilidad genética para la obtención de plantas ornamentales de S. coccinea, se aplicaron rayos X a semillas de un genotipo selecto con dosis de 100 a 600 Gy. Para evaluar el efecto producido, se estimó el área de los cotiledones por medio del análisis de fotografías, se calculó la dosis letal 50 (DL50) en la supervivencia de las plantas y se evaluaron los fenotipos obtenidos. La expansión de los cotiledones fue afectada en todos los tratamientos con aplicación de rayos X, mostrando un área menor que en el tratamiento control. La DL50 fue estimada por medio de la fórmula obtenida por regresión lineal, resultando en un valor de irradiación de 312 Gy. Entre los fenotipos mutantes se observaron deformaciones foliares, alteraciones en la pigmentación de las hojas (variegación, albinismo) y torsión en tallos. La selección de nuevas variedades se orientará a la obtención de plantas compactas, variegación de las hojas, novedades en forma y color de flores y esterilidad.

Published: April 2021

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the power of social media in the dissemination of information. The current pandemic has hurt not only social media users but also on state's sustainable development. As a result, the present study seeks to understand the reasons for using social media during the COVID 19 pandemic by screening various topics and assessing the impact of misinformation on social media, primarily psychological and mental effects. The study utilized a quantitative research design. Participants were individuals between the age of twenty and fifty. Data was collected using a questionnaire shared online to the 360 participants. The studies' responses were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the arithmetic percentage method using graphs and figures. The study results revealed that many respondents use social media as a source of information, news, and psychological nourishment. Besides, the results indicated that participants below 50 years of age used social media frequently. Whatsapp, Twitter, and Youtube were the most used social media sites among the participants. The findings indicated that most participants used social media as a source of vital information during the COVID-19 pandemic. The current study recommends that governments and health institutions focus on developing abilities to respond simultaneously to misinformation cases. This study has facilitated more knowledge into the uses of social media in times of health crises. The study acts as a blueprint to prepare the world for managing social media information sharing in the future.

The data analysis method used was multiple linear regression analysis with the first structural equation related to the community's welfare (business actors) and the second related to macroeconomic indicators. The research was conducted through a survey of 221 respondents and collecting quarterly data on financial reports. The results showed that the average level of income of business actors who opened a business in tourist locations was higher than those who opened businesses outside tourist sites. The variables of the average length of stay, inflation, and investment significantly affected Regional Original Income in West Manggarai. A business's characteristics were the main determinants of people's welfare and not the perpetrators' characteristics. These results contributed to developing an integrated tourism model that is relevant to the tourist area of Labuan Bajo. The conclusion was that tourism impacted the West Manggarai Regency's economy, including increased local revenue, employment, and gross domestic income.

Transformation of the cognitive sphere of “digital generation” children: Experience analysis
Authors: Belozerov Lilia A. , Polyakov Sergey D.
Published: April 2021

The article studies the problem of changes in the cognitive sphere of children and adolescents of the digital generation – “generation Z” – in the context of influence of socio-cultural processes and digital technologies on the human psyche. We analyse data and models of changes in perception, thinking, memory and attention in the process of transformation of the socio-cultural situation. Arguments are given in favor of the standpoint emphasizing the ambiguous nature of the influence of digital technologies on the cognitive development of a modern person. The study has pointed out that this ambiguity is manifested both through the deficit in the development of “classical” cognitive mechanisms, and in the generation of new cultural tools (according to L.S. Vygotsky) that help a young person to adapt to the reality of the modern socio-cultural situation. We raise the problem of correlating the language of “classical” psychology of cognitive processes and cognitive characteristics of young people, which are observed in new linguistic forms. Furthermore, we consider the thesis regarding consideration of psychological characteristics of “generation Z” as a relatively universal one. It is argued that the data on modern adolescents cited in the studies should be interpreted as features of the most sensitive part of the birth cohort to the “digital onset”. We consider the place of the given analysis in solving the problem of education individualization in relation to psychological and pedagogical characteristics of adolescents, described as “generation Z”, and modern educational technologies.
A Curriculum of Migrant Home:
Authors: Smith Bryan
Published: April 2021

In this article, I examine two ideas that have provoked me to reconsider my relationship to decolonising work as a settler. First, I consider the idea of home and the grounds, both material and symbolic, that make such “home-making” possible as a settler moving between states with similar aggressive investments in what Aileen Moreton-Robinson (2015) calls white possessive logics. Second, I take up a practice increasingly common in Australia – Welcomes to Country – that complicates how land is positioned as a space for people to gather. While I don’t suggest that Welcomes to Country are a panacea that resolve settler co-opting of acknowledgements as a tool of innocence (Asher, Curnow, & Davis, 2018), there is something inherently disruptive in Welcomes that might prove ethically instructive for those of us who find ourselves migrating within the settler-colonial sphere as we seek to make new homes.

Pedagogies of Enlightenment or Entitlement?
Authors: Ausman Tasha
Published: April 2021

Mindfulness and wellness practices are increasingly becoming part of the curricular landscape in secondary schools in Canada, particularly with growing attention to the mental health of students during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. This research examines the implementation of a school yoga program introduced to students bubbled in classroom cohorts in a school in Gatineau, Quebec. This paper employs Derrida’s framework of unconditional hospitality to ask whether it is possible for diasporas to reclaim indigenous knowledges through practices of ethical relationality, even as his philosophy brings to light some of the impossibilities of overturning the historical power relations entrenched in colonial pasts and the ongoing prevalence of White supremacy.

Necip Fazıl Kısakürek’in Hatırat Kitaplarında Sosyal ve Siyasi Muhteva
Authors: NARLI Salman
Published: April 2021

Edebi türler içinde otobiyografik içeriğe dayanan eserlerin başında hatırat metinleri gelmektedir. Hatırat kitapları şair ve yazarların kaleminden çıktığında üç alanda kaynaklık özelliğine sahiptir. Bu eserler ilk olarak yazarının özel hayatına ışık tutar. İkinci olarak edebiyat hayatına kaynaklık edebilir. Üçüncü alanda ise anlatılan yılların toplumsal, kültürel ve siyasi durumunu gösterir. Toplum davalarını mesele edinmiş şair ve yazarların hatıratında bilhassa üçüncü alan dikkat çeker. Necip Fazıl Kısakürek’in hatırat kitapları böyle eserlerdir. 1904-1983 yılları arasında yaşayan Kısakürek, Osmanlı İmparatorluğu’nun son yıllarını ve Türkiye Cumhuriyeti’nin birçok kritik dönemini idrak etmiş bir mütefekkir ve edebiyatçıdır. Eserleriyle başarılı bir sanatkâr olarak kendini edebiyat tarihine kabul ettirirken hayatı ve fikirleriyle nesillerin dünya görüşü üzerinde istikamet verici bir isim olmuştur. Necip Fazıl Kısakürek, şair ve yazar olarak çok sayıda eser kaleme almış velût bir isimdir. Eserlerinden bir kısmı hatırat türü metinlerdir. Yazar bu türdeki kitaplarında çocukluktan itibaren hayatını ve geçirdiği aşamaları anlatır. Bununla birlikte Türkiye’nin gidişatıyla ilgili birçok konuya değinmiştir. Makalede yazarın bahsettiği sosyal ve siyasi konular incelenecek, bunlar hakkında Necip Fazıl’ın görüşleri verilecektir. Yazarın tek parti yıllarından itibaren gündemde kaldığı görülmektedir. Bazen edebi yönüyle ama genellikle fikirleri ve aksiyoner kimliğiyle Necip Fazıl Kısakürek toplumsal ve siyasal hayatın içinde yer almıştır. İktidarlarla ilişkisi, siyasetçiler, ülkenin fikir hayatı, basın dünyası ve dinî-fikrî aksiyonu anılarında görülen başlıca sosyal ve siyasi konulardır.

Published: April 2021

Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are active regulators of numerous biological and physiological processes and play an important role in the regulation of animal ovaries and other reproductive related organs. To understand the molecular mechanisms of miR-10 family, we investigated the molecular characteristics and the relative expression of sheep miR-10a and miR-10b (miR-10a/b) and conducted bioinformatics analysis. Methods: During the period 2018-2019 total of 20 samples including blood and tissues such as hypothalamus, pituitary and ovary were collected from the Hu sheep raised in the National Meat Sheep Experimental Station of China (Luoyang City, Henan Province, China). Blood was collected from jugular vein by vacuum and anticoagulation blood collection tube and stored in refrigerator at -20°C. The tissues were placed into the cryopreservation tube treated with Diethy pyrocarbonate (DEPC) water and stored in liquid nitrogen. All the samples were processed for isolation and confirmed with biochemical analysis and Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR. Result: The target genes were predicted by three kinds of target gene predicting software. The function of target genes and their involved pathways were obtained by gene ontology (GO) enrichment and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis. The relative expression of miR-10a/b in sheep ovary was extremely significantly higher than that in hypothalamus and pituitary gland (P less than 0.01). The relative expression of miR-10b in ovary or pituitary was extremely significantly higher than that of miR-10a (P less than 0.01) and the relative expression of miR-10b in hypothalamus was significantly higher than that of miR-10a (P less than 0.05). These results serve as a foundation for further study on the Sheep miR-10 family.

Authors: Sreekumar T.R. , Eswari S. , Vijayarani K.
Published: April 2021

Background: The prospect of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) as an adult stem cell source for neuronal tissue regeneration via their ability to differentiate into neurons has generated considerable excitement in regenerative cell therapy. Methods: In this study, we isolated ovine Wharton’s jelly derived MSCs and expanded in vitro in adherent culture. After the characterisation of MSCs using specific markers, we analysed the culture morphology of MSCs differentiated into neurons by a two-step chemical-based induction protocols involving a pre-induction step and a direct one step chemical-based induction protocol. Morphological changes after induction were evaluated. Result: In both the methods, after neuronal induction, the cells displayed phenotypic characteristic of neurons and comparatively less cytotoxicity was observed in the direct induction method. This study confirmed the possibility of generating neuron like cells from ovine WJ-MSCs and thereby exploring the potential of MSCs as therapeutic tool for treating neurological disorders in Veterinary Medicine.

Background: The yield levels in mung bean reached a plateau, which emphasizes breeding for varieties with improved productivity. The basic requirements of any breeding include the understanding of different genetic parameters of various yield related traits along with the knowledge with regards to interrelationships and cause and effect of those relations among the quantitative traits. Methods: In the present investigation, sixty germplasm lines were evaluated using augmented randomized complete block design in respect of eleven quantitative traits for three years i.e., during kharif seasons of 2017-18, 2018-19 and 2019-20 to understand the genetic architecture of different genetic parameters along with associations and their cause and effects of different traits on grain yield. Result: The pooled analysis revealed significant variability for majority of traits. High heritability coupled with high genetic advance was observed in case of pods per plant, clusters per plant, plant height, test weight, seeds per pod, pods per cluster and grain yield indicating probable operation of additive gene action in inheritance of these traits. Clusters per plant and pods per plant which registered high GCV, high heritability and high genetic advance as percent of mean. The association studies revealed significant associations of pods per plant, clusters per plant, pods per cluster, branches per plant, days to maturity, pod length with grain yield per plant at both phenotypic and genotypic levels in desirable direction. Further, it was found that all these six traits which had significant association with yield also established significant magnitude of direct effects in desirable direction which contributed to the significant associations hence, can be considered simultaneously during selection.
Creating customer value through service experiences: an empirical study in the hotel industry

The main research objectives of this paper are: first, to identify the three levels of a service evaluation: attributes (service value), outcome (service experience), and values (developing service relationships); secondly, to differ and to relate the perceptions of service value with service experience components. According to the ‘theory of cognitive schemata’ and the ‘means-end theory’, the components of a service experience are hierarchical in nature. Thus, customers evaluate their experiences – and build their service relationships – taking into account not only the attributes of the service (first level of abstraction), but also the outcomes and consequences that those attributes cause on them (highest level of abstraction). Marketing research has been mostly focused on the detection of affective aspects of quality and satisfaction. However, little attention has been devoted to the cognitive organization of the structure of evaluative judgments in the customer’s mind. According to our results, servicescape provides the strongest driver of service value when creating service experiences, followed by service equity. Elements such as the service atmosphere, hotel facilities, etc. are significant contributors to customer’s easiness to relax and escape from routine, which are the two major factors in the service experience. Similarly, hotel managers should take note of the importance of service equity by developing strong brand images which capitalize on customer’s experiences rather than service attributes.

Published: April 2021

This paper is set on the context of tourism marketing and it investigates the concept of segmentation as an important tool in the management of urban tourism destinations. Segmentation presumes the existence of heterogeneity among customers in the market, and has received considerable support within the tourism literature while urban tourism has been the object of intensive research for several years. Based on a quantitative research, the present study, aims to provide a deeper insight into the typology of tourists visiting Romanian urban tourism destinations, with a focus on the city of Brasov. The survey reveals that the studied sample can be grouped into different clusters according to their socio-demographic and travel characteristics. As the results demonstrate that each of the identified tourists segments has different profiles, the implications for destination management are discussed. Recommendations are also highlighted in order to assist destination managers to formulate marketing strategies adapted to the different market segments, aiming to better position Brasov as an urban destination on the competitive national and international market.
Segmentation of rural tourists: combining push and pull motivations
Authors: Pesonen Juho A.
Published: April 2021

Rural tourism is an important form of tourism in many countries, including Finland. To understand rural tourists’ behaviour and help tourism companies market their products more efficiently many scholars have segmented rural tourists in several different geographical locations. This study aims to combine segmentation approaches used in earlier studies, namely motivation and benefit segmentation, and segment online rural tourists in Finland. Data is collected in a rural tourism affiliate website and analysed using cluster analysis on tourists’ motivations. Among 727 respondents, four rural tourist segments are found: “Social travellers”, “Wellbeing travellers”, “Home region travellers” and “Family travellers”. The segments differ from each other in motivations, preferred destination attributes, travel behaviour and sociodemographic factors. Understanding these differences will provide rural tourism companies important information to successfully market their products by combining both push and pull motivations in their marketing and product development.

Pinot blanc is a leading grapevine variety in South Tyrol (Italy) for wine production. The high quality of its wines derives from a typical aroma of elegant apple notes and lively acidity. The typicity of the final wine depends on the origin of the vine, the soil, the oenological practices and time of harvest. The South Tyrolean mountainous areas meet the cold climatic requirements of Pinot blanc, which guarantee its sweet-acidic harmony obtained when organic acids are in balance with the other components of the wine. However, increasing temperatures in valley sites during the berry development period boost the activity of malic acid (MA) enzymes, which negatively affect the final sugar/acid ratio. Researchers are currently focused on understanding acid dynamics in wines, and there are no references for the best sugar/acid ratio for Pinot blanc. Moreover, the contribution of individual acids to the sensory profile of this wine has not yet been studied. In this study we address the effect of different climate conditions and site elevations on the sugar/acid ratio in developmental grapevine berries, and  we evaluate the effect on wine bouquet. Even if different models and indices have been proposed for predicting sugar content, no predictive models exist for MA in white grapes. In a three-year study (2017, 2018 and 2019) that involved eight vineyards in four different location in South Tyrol at various elevations ranging from 223 to 730 m a.s.l., the relationships between bioclimatic indices, such as growing-degree day (GDD) and grapevine sugar ripeness (GSR) and grapevine berry content were investigated. The analysis reveals that GDD may potentially predict MA dynamics in Pinot blanc; hence, a GDD-based model was used to determine the GDD to reach target MA concentrations (3.5, 3.0, 2.5, 2.0 g/L). This simple model was improved with additional temperature-based parameters by feature selection, and the best three advanced models were selected and evaluated by 5-fold cross-validation. These models could be used to support location and harvest date choice to produce high-quality Pinot blanc wines.

Background
Hokkaido is the northernmost, least populous, and coldest of the Japanese islands. It was the first prefecture to be affected by COVID-19, while Kanagawa is home to one of the most populous areas of Japan, namely the Tokyo metro area. The Japanese government responded early during the pandemic by identifying infected patients, contact tracing, and performing PCR analysis on anyone who was suspected of having been exposed to SARS-CoV-2. The government has also been publishing information about each individual who tested positive for the virus. Both Hokkaido and Kanagawa started recording COVID-19 cases in the winter of 2020 and have detailed records of thousands of patients, thus providing an invaluable resource for the transmission and behavior of the virus.
Methods
The current study analyzed the COVID-19 registry data from the Hokkaido and Kanagawa prefectures. The Hokkaido registry contained 1,269 cases (674 (53%) females and 595 (47%) males) recorded between February 14 and July 22, 2020. The Kanagawa registry had 3,123 cases (1,346 (43%) females and 1,777 (57%) males. The final data contained a total of 4,392 cases (2,020 (46%) females and 2,372 (54%) males). By leveraging the information on viral transmission paths available in the registry data, we performed exponential random graph model (ERGM) network analysis to examine demographic and symptomological homophilies of the SARS-CoV-2 viral transmission networks.
Results
We observed age, symptomatic, and asymptomatic homophilies in both prefectures. Furthermore, those patients who contracted the virus through secondary or tertiary contacts were more likely to be asymptomatic than those who contracted it from primary infection cases. The transmission networks showed that transmission occurred significantly in healthcare settings, as well as in families, although the size of the networks was small in the latter. Most of the transmissions stopped at the primary and secondary levels and no transmission beyond quaternary was observed. We also observed a higher level of asymptomatic transmission in Kanagawa than in Hokkaido.
Conclusions
Symptom homophilies are an important component of COVID-19 and suggest that nuanced genetic differences in the virus may affect its epithelial cell type range and can thus result in the diversity of symptoms seen in individuals infected by SARS-CoV-2. Moreover, environmental variables such as temperature and humidity may also be playing an important role in the overall pathogenesis of the virus.

This mini-review critically summarizes the knowledge of imprinted polymer-based electrochemical sensors, for the detection of pesticides, metal ions and waterborne pathogenic bacteria, focusing on the period the last 5 years (citation of 78 papers published in 2017-2021, ie 63% of total citations). MIP-based electrochemical sensors exhibit low limit of detection, high selectivity, high sensitivity and low cost. Herein, we focused on the timely topics of water pollution by organics, inorganics and micro-organisms represented by pesticides, metal ions and bacteria, respectively. We put the emphasis on the design of imprinted polymers and their composites and coatings by radical polymerization, oxidative polymerization of conjugated monomers or sol-gel chemistry. Whilst most imprinted polymers are used in conjunction with differential pulse or square wave voltammetry for sensing organics and metal ions, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) appears as the chief technique for detecting bacteria. This successful combination of EIS and imprinting technology should be harnessed in the coming years in the case of bacteria. Interestingly, bacteria are not always probed by bacteria-imprinted polymers; we report here their detection by monitoring specific (macro)molecules that reflect bacterial activity, for example quorum sensing signaling molecules or flagella proteins. If much has been developed in the past decade with glassy carbon or gold electrodes, it is clear that carbon paste electrodes of imprinted polymers are more and more investigated due to their versatility. Shortlisted case studies were critically reviewed and discussed; clearly a plethora of tricky strategies of designing selective electrochemical sensors are offered to “Imprinters”. We anticipate this review will be of interest to experts and new comers in the field who are paying time and effort combining electrochemical sensors with MIP technology.
