GENETIC VARIATION IN WEED SEED DORMANCY AND THEIR MANAGEMENT IN CROPS: A REVIEW
Authors: Singh Chauhan Bhagirath , Thompson Michael , Kumar Salgotra Romesh
Published: July 2021

Evolution in the seed dormancy depends on the presence of heritable variation in weed populations. This genetic variation in weeds arises because of abundant, grow rapidly, and produce large numbers of off springs. Compared with other plant species, populations of weed species frequently show limited genetic variation in seed dormancy due to colonization, extensive clonal propagation, inbreeding, and the relative environmental homogeneity. Nevertheless, populations of weed species contain substantial store of genetic variation and genetic differentiation for seed dormancy and other reproductive traits because of pervasive feature of widely distributed nature of weed species. As a result, high level of genetic diversity among the weeds is fostered by hybridization, habitat longevity, environmental heterogeneity, outcrossing and large population size. The objective of this review is to update the existing literature concerned with genetic variation in seed dormancy and reproductive traits in weeds.

Published: July 2021

Irrigation water use management is one of the most important factors of agricultural sustainability. Therefore, an experiment was conducted at the Experimental Farm of Arab El- Awammer Research, Station, Assiut, Egypt. during the two successive growing seasons of 2017/2018 and 2018/2019, to study the foliar application with different concentrations of Moringa leaves extract (control (zero), 2 and 4%) under different levels of deficit irrigation (60, 80% and 100% ETc). The results showed that, all evaluated parameters of black cumin plant (height, number branch, number of capsules /plant, weight of seeds (gm)/ plant and weight of seeds (kg)/fed.) significantly decreased with increasing water stress, inversely water stress increased significantly unsaturated fatty acids percentage (linoleic, oleic acids, Eicosadienoic acid). Economic productivity of irrigation water and IWUE, were significantly increased at 60% ETc compared to 80 and 100% ETc. The mean values of all studied characters were significantly increased as the moringa extract concentration increased in both seasons. While the highest mean values of fixed oil, total protein and total carbohydrate were obtained with100% and 80% water interacted with the highest moringa extract applied level (4%). The combination of full irrigation and 4% MLE gave the highest values of most previous parameters; additionally insignificant differences were noticed between full irrigation and moderate stress treatments with the same concentration. Therefore, it could be recommended by foliar application of 4% MLE with 80% Etc irrigation water for obtaining higher yield and quality of black cumin.

Published: July 2021

Study of Microplastice, Polystyrene and phthalates (BPA, DBP, and DEHP) is as popular as scientists use them as a key point to reach up the new approaches. Toxicity of Phthalates and plastic components come through various sources that we are using in our daily life and it results in hazardous impacts on vertebrates and non-vertebrates organisms. Previous researches on the effect of these components have been done by using the model organisms. This review paper contains the information of past studies regarding toxicity of Microplastic and phthalates in vertebrates like mammals (human beings and whale), aquatic organisms, Zebra fish (Danio rerio) and invertebrates including D. melanogaster, D. pulex and D. magna. Ingestion of phthalates and plastic components in organisms takes place due to the contaminated water and food. Many research papers studies have explained that, those 44 organisms (weather aquatic or terrestrial) who consume plastic and phthalates through their contaminated food with different concentrations always suffer from some morphological, behavioral, biochemical and reproductive deformities. Ingestion of these components into the organisms contains a proper cycle of food web. Each and every organism hasa direct or indirect impact of Micro plastic and phthalates. Some scientists also explained that how a pregnant woman can be responsible for the disease in fetus and infants after consumption of these compounds. Male and female have different types of toxicity in their body functions including hormonal disturbance. So, plastic and phthalates have adverse consequences on aquatic life and human health

Recent researches show that Drosophila flies infertility is affected by Environmental contaminants, chemicals, Solid industrial wastes, heavy metals, Benzene. The rate of infertility of these flies is increasing day by day with the increase in industrialization and with the increasing use of pesticides, insecticides, and other harmful chemicals. Albeit different reasons have been theorized for the developing fruitlessness rate and mutation rate, ecological contaminants, and these synthetic substances are possibly significant causal operators related to this change. These substance pollutants are far and wide all through our current circumstance and presentation of these are avoidable nowadays on the Drosophila flies. The general commitment of natural and artificial contaminants, benzene, heavy metals, octopamine, and different perilous synthetics and mutagens to fruitlessness is known, and a few examinations including word occupational introduction, along with results from creature tests, recommend that ecological toxins antagonistically influence ripeness. We inspected the antagonistic impacts of natural introduction on the richness and related conceptive results. Natural impurities canvassed in this survey incorporate weighty metals, natural solvents, pesticides, and hormonal disturbing synthetics. It is trusted that this survey will feature the requirement for additional examination here. Here, in this study Drosophila is used as a model organism for testing the hazards of these environmental contaminants.

MULTIDIMENSIONAL SOCIAL INCLUSION AND ECONOMIC WELLBEING OF AGRICULTURAL LABOURERS: A LITERARY ANALYSIS
Authors: . Sumit , Bhat G.M.
Published: July 2021

This research was focusedon the agricultural labourers’ social inclusion and economic wellbeing. The researchers argue that these concepts and their relationships are addressed rarely. Prominent features of the agricultural labourers are that they utterly poor, excluded, exploited and marginalised. Their socio-economic issues seldom looked from the agricultural, rural, human and inclusive development perspective. A qualitative interpretative meta-synthesis showed the related socio-economic aspects of agricultural labourers’ social inclusion and economic wellbeing. The review results showed that the agricultural labourers lacked social security, inadequate wages, wage insecurity, extra and unpaid working hours, poor health, low living and working conditions, exploitation, lack of legal rights, low access to public services, financially excluded, limited social life and, so forth. The review results also showed that the agricultural labourers’ multiple and multi-layered issues are hardly studied in social inclusion/exclusion contexts. So, there is a need for further research in perspectives of social inclusion and economic wellbeing. The finding would be a significant recommendation to the policymakers, legal rights practitioners, and rural and inclusive development-based researchers.

Globalization, informatization, digitalization, led to large-scale changes that have problematized the modern process of upbringing. The modern practice of upbringing in Kazakhstan is aimed at solving the problem of forming an intellectual nation. The key figure in the upbringing process is the teacher. The modernization of public consciousness taking place in Kazakhstan, the renewal of both the content of education and the system of upbringing require understanding not only the content, but also the methodology of the professional training of teachers for the upbringing of children, for the organization of the upbringing system in educational organizations. We believe that the analysis of traditional and clarification of modern methodological foundations of professional training of future teachers of Kazakhstan for upbringing work will give us the opportunity to develop a strategy for training future teachers in the conditions of spiritual renewal of Kazakhstan's society. The article reveals the experience of Abai KazNPU. As a result of the conducted research, we came to the conclusion that the process of training a teacher in Kazakhstan, who has a high degree of ethnic, cultural, and religious diversity, requires strengthening the upbringing and socializing components of the educational process of the university. The strategy of professional training of a modern teacher should be a polyparadigmatic concept with the leading role of ideas of personality-oriented, competence paradigm.

Published: July 2021

Professional activity in modern society requires a specialist to have not only a certain level of professionalism in their field, but also be ready for rapid adaptation in the professional space as well as to be mobile on the labor market and pursue constant self-improvement. The activity-based methodology is changing in the direction when a specialist has an ability to successfully use the methods of organizing their work and solving professional problems with the help of modern technologies (social, information, communication, etc.). Also a specialist should be able to design and present the results of their work. Responding to the demands of modern society, Higher education provides the development of so-called “flexible” (universal) competencies of future specialists. These competences form the basis of the Federal State Educational Standard 3++ , which aim at developing systematic thinking, critical assessment of information, and the ability to use a variety of resources to solve professional problems. The article presents the experience of Omsk State Pedagogical University in organizing the process of students’ universal competencies development.

Published: July 2021

Distance learning makes use of various uses of resources that are mainstream media. One of the most important electronic educational resources, since it is in them that the content of the educational process is concentrated. In the context of distance learning, the student must realize the potential that allows him to prepare him for various types of activities, must also show cognitive activity, develop the ability to study independently, form communication skills and educational motivation. In the course of completing assignments of various types through electronic educational resources, for example: e-mail, forum, chat, blog, video and audio conferences, the student is provided with interaction and feedback; electronic textbooks contain the necessary information on the topic under study; electronic libraries, including Wikipedia, are used by students to effectively search and obtain additional materials. That is, through electronic educational resources, the student shows interest in professional activity, develops the level of personal qualities that contribute to self-educational activity, expands the possibilities of organizing control and self-control. The use of the above-mentioned complex electronic educational resources in the educational process allows the university teacher to put into practice innovative teaching methods, combine the theoretical and practical aspects of teaching, increase the informatization of education, and also form individual trajectories of student learning

Research Problem. This article examines the practice and shows the theory and outcome of the study of whether there is a significant relationship of students' academic performance depending on their learning and teaching style, whether there is a significant difference in students' grades depending on their teachers' teaching styles, and whether there is a significant difference between students' academic performance. The purpose of the study focuses on gaining new knowledge about the relationship between the learning and teaching style of a university instructor and student's academic performance. The methodology, methods, and techniques of the study. This study used the Grasch-Richman Learning Styles Questionnaire, which includes tools to assess both learning styles and teaching styles. Our study was designed as a survey study (suitable for determining the existing situation without intervention) and used a quantitative research methodology. The study also used a teaching style inventory method. Results. The results of the study showed that student achievement scores did not change significantly based on their teaching styles; a significant difference was found between student achievement and the correspondence between faculty teaching style and student teaching style. Scientific novelty/practical significance. The new knowledge gained allows us to consider the implications of how emerging learning opportunities relate to student preparation in higher education and teacher level support. Conclusions and Recommendations. The results of our study confirm that learning, teaching styles, and student achievement are interrelated, but in examining these three variables, other variables such as the specific difficulties encountered in teaching a particular subject, the age group of students, and the context of the school must also be considered. There is no "bad" style of qualified teaching. It should not, however, interfere with a teacher's professional development. New knowledge about teaching/learning styles can be useful for beginning university teachers as well as for their students.

Authors: Masson Sophie
Published: July 2021

The focus of this article is an examination of the experiences of established writers who have recently completed, or are currently undertaking, a creative writing doctorate, against a background of change within the publishing industry. Is it primarily financial/career or creative control concerns that are influencing established writers to undertake creative doctorates in recent times? And how do these writers fare within the degree program? To explore these issues through individual stories, interviews were conducted, by email and phone, with six established professional writers who had recently completed, or were still undertaking, a creative doctorate as well as with four established creative writing academics, most of whom are authors themselves. Questions of motivation and experience, as well as outcome, are canvassed in this piece of original research, which provides an interesting snapshot of the current situation for established writers in Australia undertaking creative writing doctorates.
Writing working class ghosts
Authors: Gandolfo Enza
Published: July 2021

On 15 October 1970, in one of the worst industrial accidents in Victoria’s history, a span of the West Gate Bridge collapsed during construction. Thirty-five workers were killed. Very little has been written about the West Gate Bridge collapse, the men who died, the men who survived or the families that were left behind. The Bridge has become a road, too often clogged with traffic, a nuisance, an annoyance. It’s a tragic history, one that the city seems to have forgotten, but more than forty years later, it haunts my imagination and demands to be written.

This is a self-reflexive article that explores the process of writing the West Gate Bridge collapse into a work of fiction. It focuses on the challenges of capturing the voices of the working class who are often marginalised and occasionally mythologised (as working class heroes) but rarely the central focus of literature, and the ethical risks associated with aestheticizing a traumatic historical event. Like Gerry Turcotte, I believe that engaging with our ghosts is the ‘only remedy for the distressing legacies’ (Turcotte 2007: 115) of our history, and argue here that fiction has a role in giving the ghosts of our past a voice in the present.
Warp and weft: Aesthetics of the poem as an artefact of experiences in time
Authors: Bullock Owen , Fanaiyan Niloofar
Published: July 2021

The poem has the capacity to represent moments and transitions in time, creating a time experience for the reader or listener. Just as our perspective on past and/or future events may change, the poem can accompany us through those changes, as well as seeming to halt or distort time. Our paper is a hybrid of theory and creative practice. We discuss contemporaneity of time as a theme in poetry with an example from Alistair Paterson. Poetry as a form is potentially free of the constraints of sequentiality and therefore reminds us that simultaneity is a reality. We also present two original poems. The first charts the movement of the processing of memory and projection into the future of the same event. The second explores simultaneity as a poetic structure, incorporating visual and physical elements. Both theory and performance take into account Augustine’s assertion that, ‘The present considering the past is memory, the present considering the present is immediate awareness, the present considering the future is expectation’ (Augustine 1998 Confessions XI.26.33). Poetry reminds us of the transcendent; the cognitive processing of time finds its expression mirrored in poetry, weaving representation and experience with Augustine’s three modalities of the present.
Conversations with Althusser, Bakhtin and Genette: The influence of theory on creative practice
Authors: Quilford Rees
Published: July 2021

This paper offers a personal reflection on how the study of creative writing within an institutional context can influence personal creative practice. It examines how engagement with a range of theoretical approaches can help evolve both writing and thinking.

Beginning with an overview of the debate within the creative writing discipline on the benefits that an awareness of critical theory provides to the practitioner, this paper provides a reflection on how exposure to Marxist, semiotic, post-structuralist, and gender theory can stimulate thorough consideration of the separation between ideas and words. Using Louis Althusser’s discussion of class and personal agency in Ideology and Ideological State Apparatuses, and Mikhail Bakhtin’s semiotic examination of form and ideology in Discourse in the Novel as examples, this paper speculates on the practitioner’s agency in the creative process. Judith Butler’s work on the performative nature of gender construction, Roland Barthes’ ‘Death of the Author’, and Hélène Cixous’ Three Steps on the Ladder of Writing, are cited in relation to how an engagement with the critical can encourage and influence the writing process. Gérard Genette’s writing on narratology is also considered in order to speculate on the utility that an understanding of narratology provides to the practitioner.

This paper concludes with a reflection on the benefits that maintaining a sense of fun provides in the pursuit of a meaningful dialogue between the critical and the poetic. It suggests that an interaction with theory can assist practitioners when reflecting on the intricacies and influences implicit in the creative process. It argues that considered engagement with theory leads to better writing.
Telling true stories through fiction: Exploring intertextuality in Jules Verne’s Twenty Thousand Leagues and French Pacific travel narratives
Authors: Clode Danielle , Maizonniaux Christele
Published: July 2021

Jules Verne was renowned for weaving literary, non-fiction and scientific sources into his fictional adventure narratives. While many have explored Verne’s intertextuality with other fiction writers (such as Baudelaire, Scott and Poe) and the origins of the technological innovations in his stories, few studies have analysed how Verne textually adapted his non-fiction source material into the literature of fiction. This paper examines the original French text of Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea (1870) with related passages from the voyages of the French Pacific explorer Dumont d’Urville (1826-29 and 1837-40). Verne’s story can be seen as part of a flow of knowledge from journals, exploration narratives, scientific accounts, through popular travel and natural history publication to fictional stories – an ongoing process of adaptation that continues today into computer games, comics, graphic novels and movies. Verne draws upon his non-fiction sources not only for accurate content, but also for narrative structure and literary devices, while also adapting and re-arranging factual material to suit the demands of an adventure story. Verne’s landmark novel illustrates how Verne adapted literary devices across fiction and non-fiction but also how factual accounts ripple into broader popular culture through the mediation of fiction.
Femalentendue
Authors: Robert-Foley Lily
Published: July 2021

This fictocritical experiment, self-translated between English and French, attempts a Slash fiction of Joanna Russ’s 1975 work of feminist science fiction The Female Man. In Russ’s book, characters travel in between possible worlds, encountering possible versions of themselves that are created each time an infinitesimal decision or change happens. In this work I propose that translation opens possible worlds in language in much the same way that decisions and changes do in-between Russ’s universes. I therefore propose an nth world existing in-between languages that I call ‘[xxx]’. This world [xxx] is not to be found in one version of this text nor in the other but in the space opened in-between my two translations.
‘Dude, get a shot of this’: The performance of violence in the school shooting film Excursion
Authors: Bender Stuart , Broderick Mick
Published: July 2021

One of the persistent aspects of the media and general public response to campus shooting tragedies is an obsessive fascination with the motives of the killers. Our short drama Excursion attempts to intervene in this interest in the perpetrators of school shootings by displacing the emphasis from the killers to the victims and survivors. A central technique to achieve this was the profilmic performance of the actors portraying the killers: two characters who were designed as ciphers from the initial scripting stage and throughout rehearsal and filming. Where these acts of mass violence in real life can be regarded as performative in nature (Muschert & Ragnedda 2010) it is significant to consider the performance techniques employed by the actors themselves. In this article, we discuss the rehearsal and performance choices of the actors as well as the commentary by actors portraying victims and survivors of the shooting. In particular, we discuss our empirical research into the audience reaction to the two alternate endings which emphasize the performance of violence in different ways.

Applying a new curriculum, namely implementation of 2017 Curriculum at schools in Kosova has been commenced in September 2017. This study examined the impact of the Faculty of Education in preparing its graduates for the implementation of the new school curriculum with reference to University “Kadri Zeka” in Gjilan, Kosova. The purpose of this study is to investigate the graduate students’ preparedness to implement the new school curriculum. The quantitative method has been employed for this research. A questionnaire for graduate students has been used to collect data. 81 graduate students filled out the online questionnaire. The results from this research indicate that the graduates of the University “Kadri Zeka”, respectively the graduates who were prepared in primary and preschool programs felt significantly prepared across most dimensions of teaching. However, there is room for improvement regarding the new school curriculum implementation.
Mercado de trabalho e o índice FIRJAN de desenvolvimento municipal: padrões espaciais dos municípios do estado do Paraná
Authors: Kruger Rayssa Vieira , Bourscheidt Deise Maria
Published: July 2021

O estudo avaliou os padrões espaciais entre o Índice FIRJAN de desenvolvimento municipal – Emprego & Renda, e o mercado de trabalho no ano de 2010 nos municípios paranaenses, por meio de análise do coeficiente de correlação e posterior análise espacial. A pesquisa mostrou que parte das mesorregiões Centro Ocidental, Centro Sul e Norte apresentaram padrão espacial Baixo-Baixo, indicando que o mercado de trabalho é desfavorecido e carece de uma maior geração de emprego e renda para poder se desenvolver economicamente. Já nas mesorregiões Norte central e Metropolitana de Curitiba, os clusters se classificaram como padrão Alto-Alto, apontando que nessas aglomerações de municípios, o mercado de trabalho é desenvolvido e possui uma maior geração de emprego na indústria, comércio e serviços.
Socioeconomic development of Brazilian municipalities: The role of public and private banks
Authors: Pereira Greisson Almeida , Silva Emilson Caputo Delfino
Published: July 2021

The economic literature has discussed the role of public banks regarding their performance as drivers of socioeconomic development, highlighting their social role when compared to private banks. This paper contributes to this discussion and analyzes the impact of the physical presence of public and private commercial banks on the Firjan Index of Municipal Development (FMDI) of Brazilian municipalities. The results of a logit panel model show that public banks have greater impact on the FMDI rather than private banks, taking into account where the municipality is located and the externalities caused by the neighboring municipality. There is great probability of a municipality being in a high level of development if it has the physical presence of commercial public banks.
Análisis distributivo utilizando información satelital. El caso de Argentina
Authors: Ciaschi Matías
Published: July 2021

Este trabajo se propone la realización de un análisis distributivo a partir de datos provenientes de imágenes satelitales para Argentina. La ventaja de esta información satelital radica en que permite observar qué ocurre con el bienestar de áreas del país no abarcadas por la Encuesta Permanente de Hogares (EPH). De esta manera, el trabajo realiza un análisis comparativo de la evolución de la pobreza y la desigualdad utilizando ambas fuentes de información, indicando posibles complementariedades entre ellas. Más precisamente, los resultados sugieren que tanto la pobreza como la desigualdad son más altas en áreas no incluidas en la encuesta de hogares, aunque siguen una dinámica similar respecto a los aglomerados urbanos de la EPH.
Eficiência técnica agropecuária e desmatamento: análise espacial para a Amazônia legal brasileira
Authors: Pellenz Jéssica de Lima da Vida , Almeida Mariza de , Lirio Viviani Silva
Published: July 2021

A performance do setor agropecuário é essencial para o desempenho econômico brasileiro. O protagonismo do Brasil como exportador de commodities, contudo, exige atenção ao que se refere à contrapartida ambiental provocada, por se sustentar na expansão do uso da terra e não na eficiência produtiva. Percebendo a relevância da agropecuária para a economia brasileira e reconhecendo a importância de sepromover um crescimento sustentável, este trabalho avalia como os níveis de eficiência agropecuária municipal se relacionam com o desmatamento na Amazônia Legal brasileira. Para tanto, foram utilizados métodos de Análise por Envoltória de Dados e de econometria espacial. Os resultados sugerem que os municípios com baixa eficiência contribuem para o aumento do desmatamento, enquanto que os mais eficientes contribuem para a redução nas áreas desmatadas.
On the economic thought of trade practices and policies in Kenya
Authors: Majune Socrates Kraido , Mwania Davis Kimuli
Published: July 2021

This study explains trade regimes in Kenya from a History of Economic Thought (HET) perspective using secondary materials (books, papers, and original manuscripts). We found that the pre-colonial era (before 1895) had a mixture of Classical doctrines and Mercantilism, whereby long-distance and barter trade between communities were practiced. Nonetheless, certain communities restricted trade. Classical economic thought was practiced in the colonial period (1895-1962), whereby agricultural produce was exported and less expensive consumables were imported. The post-colonial period started with a Mercantilism approach (Importsubstitution), but successive regimes have promoted Classical doctrines of trade by reducing import and export barriers and creating trade-promotion institutions. Trade in services, which is topical in international trade, has also been promoted in this regime.
