Published: December 2023

Despite being an ectoparasite of birds, Dermanyssus gallinae (D. gallinae) has no specific host range. Without a natural host, the mite can feed on mammals, including humans, due to its lack of specificity. As a result of red mite infestations, poultry industry economies have been negatively affected, egg production has declined, and chickens’ welfare has been compromised. Several in vitro studies have demonstratedthe effectiveness of diesel, petroleum, mineral, and plant oils (orange and rapeseed) in controlling poultry red mites. It is possible to develop vaccines against arthropods; however, this process takes a long time because of the complexity of the process and the possibility of inducing stronger and long-lasting immune responses in the host. This review paper aimed to comprehensively understand the morphology, the factorscontributing to red mite infestation, and the life cycle. It also provided an overview of various methods for preventing and controlling the infestation of red mites in poultry farming, including several chemical and non-chemical approaches that can be used. Chemical interventions, such as acaricides, exhibit immediate efficacy in red mite control, but their long-term sustainability and potential resistance development aresignificant concerns. Non-chemical methods, including enhanced biosecurity measures and natural predators, demonstrate promise in reducing red mite populations, offering environmentally friendly alternatives with potential long-term benefits. In order to minimize the negative impact of red mites on poultry flocks, poultry producers must understand the biology of these parasites and implement effectivemanagement strategies.

Published: December 2023

Globally, peatland covers 3% of the land area, with significant concentrations in tropical regions. In Malaysia, Sarawak alone accounts for 70% (1.6 Mha) of the country's peatland. Tropical peatland is characterized by waterlogged conditions that promote the accumulation of organic matter (peat) from decaying plant material. These conditions strongly influence vegetation, species composition, peat type, and carbon release, making them crucial for climate change mitigation. The hydrology of tropical peatland is primarily influenced by the fluctuation of the water table (WT) depth in its catchment. This study analyzes five years (2011-2015) of field measurements on WT and precipitation (PT) dynamics, observing their trends. PT was found to significantly regulate monthly WT at the study site (p < 0.01), showing a positive correlation. However, PT exhibited a downward trend over the study period, although not significantly for all sites. Similarly, WT at MA, MC, and MD did not show significant trends, likely due to ENSO events from 2011 to 2015. In contrast, MB experienced a significant decrease in WT, possibly caused by a nearby river acting as a drain and accelerating WT lowering.

Soil nutrient is essential for crop growth. Spatial variability of nutrients will have occurred in numerous scales, between regions, a field, particularly in soil properties. A study was carried out to observe the yield performance in an agricultural plot at Semujuk Jasin, Melaka. Using management zone delineation, the area is divided into fifteen smaller 6.8-meter × 6.8-meter plots.  A soil sample from each plot was tested in the laboratory to obtain the soil moisture, organic matter, pH level, Phosphorus, and Manganese content.  Using ArcGIS software, the result is interpolated using the Kringging method, mapped, and then compared with the crop value from each.  Plot A3 generated the lowest yield with a crop yield value of RM6.8.  This plot also has the lowest soil moisture content, which is 6.452%.  Plot A1 produces only RM65.2 for crop yield, although it has 21.505% soil moisture content, while plot C1 only produces RM47.4 for crop yield value, although it has a higher soil moisture content of 23.265%.  Regarding the soil organic matter content for both plots, plot A1 has only 1.455% organic matter content, while plot C1 has lower soil organic matter content, which is 0.823%.  Plot B2, with a low pH value (4.51), shows a poor performance of RM52.6 regarding satisfactory readings on other plots.  From the analysis made based on the experiment result, the primary limiting factor affecting crop performance is soil moisture content. Soil pH value and Organic Matter also play an essential role in determining crop performance.

Published: December 2023

Tomato's short shelf life and economic significance resulted in its classification as a model for studying the physiological behavior of fruits and vegetables. This study employs light treatment to investigate the effect of various light spectrums on tomatoes' physiological qualities. Four light treatments, white LED, 5R:1B LED, 5B:1R LED , and the control (without light treatment) were placed under a storage condition with a temperature of 5ºC and relative humidity of 88% for 5 days and an on-shelf display condition of 22ºC and relative humidity of 78%. Response variables were colour changes, firmness, total soluble solids, and pH. It was observed that 5R:1B LED significantly increase red colour development in tomatoes during storage and on-shelf display condition, promoting lycopene accumulation, while 5B:1R LED delays red colour accumulation during storage but rather prolong pale-yellow colour development during shelf display condition, promoting ζ- carotene and xanthophyll accumulation. Tomatoes treated with 5B:1R and white LED enhance tomato firmness more than the control samples during storage and on-shelf display. 5B:1R LED reduces the pH of tomatoes significantly, making them more acidic and resistance to microbes, while 5R:1B enhances the sugar accumulation of tomatoes. This makes photo-treatment a sustainable technique for tomato physiological quality preservation and senescence postponement.

Land preparation is essential in rice cultivation. Levelling is one activity of land preparation that is done to achieve good crop establishment and high-yield production. There are several methods for achieving this. Implementing the major levelling method or the cut and fill method produces the best land levelling results, especially during the dry season. However, during the wet season, this method cannot be implemented to level the land as the amount of water in the soil would make it impossible to do any cut and fill operation. As a result, this study was carried out to evaluate the outcome of various methods of land levelling. Land levelling work was done using a power tiller, box leveler, and power harrow implements. Meanwhile, a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) with the support of a Real Time Kinematic (RTK) system was used to map the levelness of the land. Land levelness mapping data was taken after each land preparation activity was done. Following that, the mapping data was processed to determine the levelling index for each activity. A high value of the levelling index indicated a more perfect levelling quality of the land. A total of two study plots at MARDI Parit Station, Perak, were used for this study, with each plot having an area of 0.5 hectares. The results showed that the average levelling index for the power tiller, box leveler, and power harrow was 60.0%, 76.8%, and 85.9%, respectively. The use of a box leveler resulted in the greatest increase in the levelling index, with a difference of 24.2% compared to an increase of 11.9% with a power harrow. In conclusion, some land preparation activities can improve land levelness quality even during the wet season. Furthermore, during the wet season, the use of a box leveler can be recommended during land preparation work to replace major levelling work that cannot be performed to improve the quality of the land's levelness.
A “Língua neutra” nas dinâmicas normativas do português e do espanhol
Authors: Lagares Xoán Carlos
Published: December 2023

Ao comparar as dinâmicas normativas do português e do castelhano, comprovamos que existem diferenças consideráveis
no desenvolvimento histórico de seus espaços linguísticos e dos modelos de gestão da norma-padrão. Enquanto empresas
de comunicação fazem uso do conceito de “espanhol neutro”, como estratégia para ampliar mercados, e instituições
internacionais como a ASALE elaboram instrumentos que dizem descrever um español total, as condições históricas
que provocaram a constituição de dois grandes centros normativos do português, em Portugal e no Brasil, fazem que a
própria ideação de um “português neutro” pareça impossível.
À falta de uma política de gestão ampliada da língua por parte de Portugal, junta-se no caso do português a precária
constituição de um mercado linguístico internacional, com a desigual circulação de bens culturais entre seus principais
centros normativos. A comparação de ambas as dinâmicas permite compreender as condições materiais que fundamentam
uma ideologia de língua unida, no caso do espanhol, e por outro lado produzem uma ideologia da divisão linguística
no caso do português.
Neutrality as an analytical lens on language curricula? A data-based conversation on policies, discourses and their sociohistorical origins in Switzerland and South Africa
Authors: Zimmermann Martina , Ronza Rocco W.
Published: December 2023

In this article, we analyse language education policy in two officially multilingual countries, Switzerland and South Africa, where the role of English has evolved vis-à-vis local “national” languages since the 1990s. Our focus is on language policy as a manifestation of social struggles and, with a particular emphasis on English, we explore current policy documents in these two very different contexts. Using “neutrality” as an analytical lens, we show that language policy goes beyond curricula and in-/exclusion of languages, and instead neutralises societal ideas in line with the vision of a “successful” future at a given sociohistorical juncture. Finally, we reflect on neutrality as a component of language ideologies, whereby specific languages are authorised for contingent and changing political goals, leading to consequences such as in-/exclusion of certain languages in education policy and unequal distribution of knowledge, resources and authority.

Shading Alleviates Damage of Short Term Salinity and Protects Leaf Pigments in Sweet Cherry
Authors: ARAS Servet , KELES Hakan
Published: December 2023

Salt stress negatively influences fruit yield and quality in trees. In addition to environmental stresses, excess energy from sunlight possesses harmful effects on plant metabolisms. Here we reveal the effects of shading on short term salinity stress in cherry plants. Salinity and shading treatments were introduced approximately two months after planting. Three shading levels (40%, 60%, and 80%) were applied. To induce moderate salinity stress, 35 mM NaCl (sodium chloride) was utilized for one month. Many morphological and physiological aspects and chlorophyll metabolism were evaluated. We found that the plant growth, stomatal conductance and chlorophyll biosynthesis were significantly retarded under salinity during a month. However, shading treatments alleviated the salinity damage. Moreover, salt stress hindered the biosynthesis of chlorophyll at Mg-Proto IX step. Shading treatments mitigated salinity damage associated with decreasing air and leaf temperature and preventing the loss of chlorophyll and the precursors and increasing anthocyanins. The results of the study showed that shading treatments possessed a protective effect on short term salinity in cherry plants.

Methods for combining probability and nonprobability samples under unknown overlaps
Authors: Savitsky Terrance D. , Williams Matthew R. , Gershunskaya Julie , Beresovsky Vladislav
Published: December 2023

Nonprobability (convenience) samples are increasingly sought to reduce the estimation variance for one or more population variables of interest that are estimated using a randomized survey (reference) sample by increasing the effective sample size. Estimation of a population quantity derived from a convenience sample will typically result in bias since the distribution of variables of interest in the convenience sample is different from the population distribution. A recent set of approaches estimates inclusion probabilities for convenience sample units by specifying reference sample-weighted pseudo likelihoods. This paper introduces a novel approach that derives the propensity score for the observed sample as a function of inclusion probabilities for the reference and convenience samples as our main result. Our approach allows specification of a likelihood directly for the observed sample as opposed to the approximate or pseudo likelihood. We construct a Bayesian hierarchical formulation that simultaneously estimates sample propensity scores and the convenience sample inclusion probabilities. We use a Monte Carlo simulation study to compare our likelihood based results with the pseudo likelihood based approaches considered in the literature.

Authors: Oullada Oumaima , Ben Ali Mohamed , Adri Ahmed , Rifai Said
Published: December 2023

This paper presents a conceptual model used to evaluate how the improvement of good pharmacovigilance practices by patients during COVID-19 period influences the reactivity of the healthcare professionals (HCPs) in the Draa Tafilalet region in Morocco, concerning the reporting of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) through barriers that influence the reporting from both patients and HCPs. The empirical study is based on a survey submitted to a sample of a total of 180 HCP and on the application of latent variable structural modelling through the partial least squares (PLS) method. The 2017 version of the XL-STAT software served to perform the statistical calculations. The study investigates the reliability and validity of the proposed model. Our conclusions show that the improvement of good pharmacovigilance practices impact positively the reactivity of HCP in terms of ADRs reporting. The reliability of the measurement was > 0.7, which allowed us to test the internal and external validity of our conceptual model. 11 hypotheses were validated against two invalid derivative hypotheses. Spontaneous ADRs reporting is the cornerstone of any pharmacovigilance system aiming to maintain patient safety. Our findings indicate the necessity firstly, to initiate a training program on reporting for all HCPs, and secondly, to inform the general public about the national pharmacovigilance center, where ADRs can be reported. Both initiatives aim to keep the culture of ADR reporting perennial.

Indonesia, as the world's largest archipelagic state, possesses vast maritime territories, including 3.2 million km2 of territorial waters and a 2.7 million km2 Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). The maritime expanse provides diverse marine resources, notably significant salt production potential. Despite its extensive coastline and marine environment, Indonesia's national salt production in 2021 and 2022 fell significantly short of the 4.5 million-ton domestic demand, highlighting a substantial gap in achieving self-sufficiency. This reliance on salt imports poses economic and food security vulnerabilities, prompting the government to enact Presidential Regulation No. 126/2022, aiming to accelerate national salt development.

General Election (Pemilu) in Indonesia is a special process involving the entire society in determining the leadership of the state. However, the qualifications of a leader often differ from the desired ideals. This research explores the political structure and ethics of Islam in the context of contemporary politics. The principles of Islamic politics encompass unity through consultation, trustworthiness, upholding fair law, and obedience to Allah, the Prophet, and those in authority. From the perspective of siyasah fiqh, the regulation of human interests, including the state, is governed by Islamic teachings. Ethics play a crucial role in guiding political behavior, ensuring actions that are right and just for the common good. As a significant belief, Islamic leadership demands integrity, deep knowledge of religion, and the ability to apply Islamic teachings in everyday life. Moreover, integrity, honesty, and wisdom in leadership are key attributes desired in an Islamic leader. Effective communication and good relations with the community are also important in choosing the right leader. By considering these criteria, we can ensure that Islamic principles are reflected in public policies. This research provides a foundation for selecting an ideal leader in the legislative domain in the future, ensuring that leadership reflects the desired Islamic values of the community.

This study examines the effect of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives on the financial performance of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs), focusing on their financial aspect rather than examining larger industries' CSR practices. A cross-sectional descriptive survey design was used for this study. A sample of 77 wholesalers and retailers from Santiago City owners or appointed representatives by the business owner responded, given that such a representative is a continuing employee with at least three years of service in the business. The study finds a strong positive relationship between CSR initiatives and the financial performance of SMEs, wherein CSR initiatives serve as a business strategy to improve their business operations. It further suggests that CSR does not lead to financial gain but engagement in various economic, social, and environmental activities that significantly indirectly affect SMEs’ financial performance. The paper discusses the role of CSR initiatives in SMEs' business strategies, highlighting their potential to enhance operations, financial performance, competitiveness, and revenue growth, contributing to the business industry, economics, and environment.

Writing is an intricate process in the first language and its intricacy increases when writing in the targeted language. Although Kurdish students of English study English writing at most levels of their education in Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI), it has been observed that they commit serious errors even in the basics of writing. These errors may influence their writing in English and their overall English language proficiency level. Nevertheless, meticulous research in the arena of error analysis is scanty in the KRI context compared to the body of research conducted in this area in the Arab world. This study was undertaken to analyze the errors committed by English-as-a-foreign-language (EFL) undergraduate students to recognize the most and the least prevalent errors committed by students and present and explain some possible causes and sources of those errors. The study investigated errors in a collection of 57 argumentative essays. Four categories of errors were taken into consideration, namely, grammatical, lexical, spelling, and punctuation as well as their subcategories. Frequencies and percentages of errors were first recognized, and then the common subcategories of each of the errors were tabulated, explained, and described with examples from the corpus. The reported results showed that the overall frequency and percentage of the errors were high and grammatical errors were the most common. Lexical errors were found to be the least common errors in students' written productions. Additionally, the most prevalent subcategories of the errors were presented and interpreted. The study concluded that the major causes of written errors in the KRI context were both interlingual and intralingual errors.
Language consciousness and poetic reconstruction: A re-examination of goddess as a modern Chinese poetry anthology
Authors: Li Jiantao , Hong Wenhao , Hu Ying
Published: December 2023

Goddess, as the inchoation of Chinese New Poetry, has significant meaning and always attracts the attention of researchers. However, there is a lack of a practical understanding of the ontological characteristics of the goddess in modern Chinese poetry (MCP). Guo Moruo consciously uses the rich grammatical functions and means of modern Chinese to construct the textual space of poetry. The subjective, dramatic, and rich modality system of modern Chinese has created the intense lyricism and dramatic, poetic aesthetic style of goddess, which makes goddess the anthology that genuinely practices the writing of MCP. Re-examining the goddess from the perspectives of language consciousness and poetic reconstruction is of excellent enlightenment significance for understanding the linguistic properties of early new poetry.
