Published: September 2024

The level of anaerobic performance primarily influences the result of the 30-second Wingate anaerobic test (WAnT). This study aims to determine the influence of position on the overall performance achieved in different phases of the WAnT in participants with different fitness levels. Sixty participants (21.00 ± 2.24 years): 20 race cyclists, 20 competitive runners, and 20 non-athletes performed three WAnTs (sitting, standing, and combined position) in one week. For the analysis, we used a random mixed effect model with type and position as a fixed effect. We studied the meaning of interactions and the main effects of fixed variables (ρ≤0,05). Technically advanced individuals perform significantly better in standing than sitting from the 8th second until the end of the test. Technically and physically advanced individuals achieve significantly higher performance levels in the first half of the standing position test than those who are fitness-ready but without the necessary level of technique. Fit individuals without of technique achieve high performance in the second half of the WAnT in the standing position. The main benefit of the work is the finding that the level of fitness and technique of pedalling have a different influence on performance in different phases of the WAnT.

Authors: Tessele Vinícius , Oliveira Junior Marcos Bento de , Schulz Jhoni Eldor
Published: September 2024

Este artigo explora o uso de Redes Neurais Artificiais (RNAs), especificamente através de uma Rede Neural Convolucional (CNN), para identificar o momento ideal de dessecação da soja, uma prática agrícola essencial para uniformizar a maturação e facilitar a colheita. A dessecação é particularmente crítica no estágio fenológico R7 da soja, onde a maturação da planta atinge um ponto em que pelo menos uma vagem adquire coloração amarela. A metodologia envolveu a coleta e rotulagem de imagens da soja no estágio próximo a R7, utilizando câmeras de celulares com diferentes resoluções. Essas imagens foram preparadas e processadas para treinar um modelo de classificação de imagens chamado imageClassificationMulti, que é capaz de distinguir entre múltiplas categorias simultaneamente. Durante o treinamento supervisionado, o modelo aprendeu a reconhecer padrões visuais específicos associados aos estágios fenológicos da planta. Os resultados demonstraram que o modelo imageClassificationMulti pode identificar com precisão o estágio R7, auxiliando na decisão do momento mais adequado para a dessecação. Isso pode otimizar a colheita, melhorando a eficiência e a qualidade das sementes, além de reduzir perdas e custos. A aplicação de RNAs na agricultura, como mostrado neste estudo, oferece um avanço significativo, proporcionando uma ferramenta tecnológica para melhorar a tomada de decisões e aumentar a produtividade agrícola.

Authors: Suresh Ramanan S  , Arunachalam Ayyanadar , Verdiya Ankit , Handa A.K.
Published: September 2024

Bundelkhand, a pivotal land area in Central India, is geographically demarcated across the states of Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. The 13 districts in both states share similarities in cultural and socio-economic aspects. This paper commences with a descriptive portrayal of the Bundelkhand region, delving into the agricultural scenario, which is highly influenced by rainfall patterns. The region boasts a dominant agrarian rural population, with more than 40% comprising women. Owing to the lower productivity of wheat, farm diversification has been consistently recommended. In this context, agroforestry presents a respite, fostering resilience at the farm level. Agri-silvicultural and silvipastoral systems are typically recommended for this region and are detailed alongside the traditionally prevailing agroforestry practices of the area. This review synthesizes the need for agroforestry adoption for four major reasons and its impact on the Bundelkhand region. Furthermore, it presents the constraints, problems, and motivational factors for adopting agroforestry, ultimately providing directions for the way forward

Microbial Diversity in Cold Desert Ecosystem: A Review and Bibliometric Analysis
Authors: Chauhan Mansi , Anita Pandey
Published: September 2024

Cold deserts play a unique and crucial role in the environment. Glaciers in these regions store significant amounts of freshwater, essential for ecosystems, while permafrost sequesters large quantities of carbon, preventing the release of greenhouse gases. These areas host diverse species, contributing to global biodiversity and a variety of extremophile life forms. The microbial communities in cold deserts—comprising bacteria, cyanobacteria, archaebacteria, fungi, and lichens—have adapted to harsh conditions. They maintain ecological balance by forming symbiotic interactions with plants, enhancing soil fertility, and boosting crop yields. Additionally, several microorganisms are involved in bioremediation processes. Microorganisms found in cold desert environments also serve as valuable biosignatures for detecting life, significantly advancing the field of astrobiology. This review explores the microbial diversity of cold deserts through bibliometric analysis using VOSviewer software. The software identified 47 countries engaged in cold desert research, with the United States leading in the number of publications. A total of 2009 keywords were analyzed, with "bacteria (microorganisms)" being the most common. This review encompasses studies on the microbial diversity of cold deserts and their applications, highlighting crucial directions for future research

Authors: Yadav Kaushal Kumar , Dash Sukanta , Parsad Rajender , Mandal Baidya Nath , Kumar Anil , Kumar Mukesh
Published: September 2024

Semi-Latin rectangles represent row-column designs where each row-column intersection contains the same number of experimental units, denoted as k >1. Additionally, each treatment appears an equal number of times in each row ( r n , say) and in each column ( c n , say) ( 1 r n ≥ and 1 c n ≥ may or may not be same). Partially Balanced Semi-Latin rectangles (PBSLR) constitute a subset of Semi-Latin rectangles (SLR), serving as generalizations of Latin squares and Semi-Latin squares (SLS). These designs find utility in various agricultural and industrial experiments, particularly situations where one effect is considered a column effect and the other a row effect, with the intersection (block/cell) accommodating precisely four units. This article introduces two methods for constructing PBSLR designs with a block size of 4. Also, R package has been developed for generating the designs.

Published: September 2024

Groundwater as a source of irrigation is extensively practiced in the Doaba region of Punjab, alongside high inputs such as chemical fertilizers and pesticides. These inputs pose dual threats to the deterioration and deepening of groundwater. Therefore, a survey-based investigation was conducted in the region, involving the collection of groundwater samples, their physico-chemical analysis, and the assessment of harvested potato tuber yields. The data analysis revealed that farmers are extracting groundwater from borewells at a depth of 254.0 feet on average, with a delivery depth of 145.67 feet. The analytical results indicated that all the collected groundwater samples were suitable for irrigation purposes. Furthermore, there was a significantly positive correlation between tuber yield and nitrate content of groundwater. Thus, it is crucial to consider the contribution of nitrate from groundwater when recommending nitrogen usage.

Authors: Sharma Jagdev , Kumar Prince , Sharma Anil , Dua VK , Sharma Vineeta , Singh Brajesh
Published: September 2024

Use of alternative sources of nutrients such organic manures, residues and by-products to chemical fertilizers may enhance not only the yield but cut down the fertilizers use. Therefore, present investigation was carried out to explore the possibility of using rice husk ash (RHA) as a source of phosphorus in potato crop. Two pot experiments were conducted on Kufri Jyoti and Kufri Girdhari to determine the effect of rice husk ash on phosphorus nutrition of the crop during 2020-21. Application of rice husk ash (RHA) significantly increased the plant height, haulms (leaf plus stem) biomass, root weight, chlorophyll content (SPAD value) and P content. In Kufri Jyoti, application of 20g RHA per pot significantly increased haulms biomass, tuber yield, relative leaf chlorophyll content and P content in haulms by 17.8 per cent over control. In Kufri Girdhari, application of 40g RHA/ pot also increased the P content by (14.6 %) in haulms over control besides significant increase in haulm yield, root mass and relative leaf chlorophyll content. It was observed that subjecting the crop to moisture stress by withholding the irrigation towards harvest, senescence was delayed in plants fertilized with rice husk ash. RHA application showed a significant and positive correlation with root length and tuber yield (r=0.70). The results of the present study revealed that RHA can be used as a source of phosphorus for potato crop and has potential to improve water relations and nitrogen nutrition as indicated by improved relative leaf chlorophyll content in plants fertilized with RHA.

Authors: KESHAVAIAH Dr. K.V. , NADAF SALIM
Published: September 2024

Minerals are most important components of jaggery compared to centrifugal sugar which is nothing but sucrose. Jaggery rich in iron along with other minerals like calcium, phosphorus and zinc can be formidable source in the diet. However, the cane quality used for jaggery making makes it more tenable to embed the nutrients in it as a source of minerals. The poor-quality cane makes it deprived of the vital minerals in jaggery. An experiment conducted at Zonal Agricultural Research Station, V.C.Farm, Mandya has revealed that higher total salts of 3.16 g 100g-1 was recorded in cane of saline soil and cane of sodic soil (3.08 g 100g-1) conditions compared to cane from normal soils. Higher calcium content was recorded in cane of moisture stress condition (83.77 mg 100g-1) followed by cane of normal soil on research station (82.80 mg 100g-1). lowest magnesium content was recorded in lodged cane conditions (58.00 mg 100g-1). The higher iron content was recorded in cane of shaded area (11.46 mg 100g-1) followed by cane of normal soil on research station (11.26 mg 100g-1). The higher sodium content was recorded in cane of sodic soil (97.47 mg 100g-1). The higher ash content was recorded in cane of shaded area (3.63 %) which is a negative factor. However, the phenolic content of jaggery was not influenced by production conditions. The higher bacterial count (7.47 CFU 10-5 g-1) and fungal count (7.36 CFU 10-4 g-1) was recorded in lodged cane compared to normal soils. Jaggery from cane of normal soil on farmer’s field (129 days) could be stored for longer period over lodged cane (34.67 days) and cane of saline soil (32.67 days) conditions.

Apartheid Suçları ve Etnik Ayrımcılık: İsrail Örneği
Authors: Sarı Ayhan
Published: September 2024

İsrail’in 7 Ekim 2023 tarihinde gerçekleşen Aksa Tufanı Operasyonu’na verdiği karşılık, soykırım suçları kapsamında değerlendirilebilecek uygula-malar ve müsebbibi olduğu katliamlar sonucunda apartheid rejimi kavramı dünya genelinde ciddi bir biçimde tartışılır hale geldi. Bu makalenin amacı uluslararası sözleşmeler ışığında apartheid suçu ve bu suçun temelini oluş-turan ırksal ayrımcılığın kökenlerini İsrail örneği üzerinden incelemektir. Öncelikle sosyal psikoloji alanında yapılan çalışmalar göz önünde bulundu-rulduğunda etnik kimliğe dayalı gruplaşmaların özünde maksimum fayda-dan ziyade diğer grupla maksimum ayrışmanın ön plana çıktığı görülmek-tedir. Elde edilen bulgular İsrail-Filistin meselesi özelinde incelendiğinde İs-rail’in ‘makbul Yahudi’ kimliğini teşvik ettiği ve bu kimliğin dışında kalan tüm etnik gruplara ayrımcılık uyguladığı anlaşılmaktadır. İsrail’de uygula-nan etnik ayrımcılığa sadece Filistinliler değil, Afrika ve Sefarad Yahudileri de muhatap olmuştur. Başta Birleşmiş Milletler olmak üzere uluslararası kurum ve kuruluşların hazırladığı raporlar ve kararlar ışığında Filistin’e uygulanan ayrımcılık incelendiğinde, Filistinlilerin İsrail anayasasına yer-leşmiş sistematik bir ayrımcılığın muhatabı olduğu görülmektedir. Filistinli-ler, İsrail’de yaşayan İsrail vatandaşları, Doğu Kudüs’te yaşayan süresiz oturuma sahip Filistinliler ve işgal altında Batı Şeria ve Gazze’de yaşam mücadelesi veren Filistinliler olarak üç farklı nüfuz bölgesinde çeşitli düzey-lerde apartheid rejimine muhatap olmaktadırlar. Bilhassa Doğu Kudüs, Batı Şeria ve Gazze’de yaşayan Filistinliler uluslararası sözleşmelerde apartheid suçları olarak tanımlanan suçların neredeyse tamamına maruz kalmaktadır-lar. İsrail’in uyguladığı toprak politikası, Yahudiler ve Filistinliler olarak özetlenebilecek iki yapılı hukuk sistemi ve Filistinlileri bölmeye ve sürgün etmeye odaklı çeşitli işgal politikaları apartheid suçlarının ana omurgasını oluşturmaktadır.
