Influence of foliar application of boron and TIBA on photosynthetic parameters visa- vis productivity of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) under variable sowing dates
Authors: BUTA SINGH DHILLON  , P. K. SHARMA
Published: January 2022

Field experiments were conducted during spring 2014 and 2015 at Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana, to study the effect of staggered sowing on photosynthetic parameters and the productivity of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) in relation to foliar application of boron (B) and TIBA (Tri iodo benzoic acid-TIBA). The experiment was laid out in split plot design with three sowing dates (January 20, February 10 and March2) in main plots and eight foliar spray treatments (Control, water spray, B @ 110, 220, 440 ppm, TIBA @ 100, 200 and 400 ppm) in sub plots replicated thrice. The results indicated that delay in sowing caused significant reduction in biological and seed yield of sunflower probably due to significant reduction in photosynthetic parameters coupled with reduction in crop duration from 119 to 92 days. Foliar application of boron and TIBA improved the dry matter accumulation by leaf and seed as well as total but dry matter accumulation by stem did not vary at 90 DAS. Marked improvement in photosynthetic parameters coupled with better growth indices due to TIBA- 100, 200 and 400 ppm and boron 220 and 440 ppm increased crop productivity over control and water spray by way of improved DM partitioning. Correlation studies indicated significant positive correlation of seed yield with PAR, chlorophyll content and stomatal conductance at 90 DAS, emphasizing the importance of higher growth and photosyntheticrate during reproductive period for best yield accrual from sunflower.

Published: January 2022

Potato tuber yield were simulated at Jorhat, Assam under various Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs) scenarios for 2020, 2050 and 2080 using DSSAT SUBSTOR-Potato model. The model was calibrated and validated for three potato cultivars, viz., Kufri Jyoti, Kufri Pokhraj and Kufri Himalini with the experimental data collected during 2014-15 and 2015-16. Results revealed that if planting is delayed beyond November, all these cultivars are likely to record drastic reduction in tuber yield. Cultivar Kufri Himalini may incur tuber yield loss of 64 per cent in 2020 to 75 per cent in 2080, followed by Kufri Jyoti (57.6% in 2020 to 71.5% in 2080) and Kufri Pokhraj (45.2% in 2020 to 56.2% in 2080). Among the cultivars, Kufri Pokhraj may remain a viable cultivar up to 2050, but Kufri Himalini may lose its sustainability by 2020 itself. Hence, adjustment of planting time and development of improved adaptive potato cultivarsonly will ascertai n future potato production in this region.

Authors: D.T.MESHRAM  , S.D. GORANTIWAR  , JYOTSANA SHARMA  , K.D.BABU
Published: January 2022

A field experiment was carried out at Solapur, Maharashtra during 2015-2017 on 4 and 5 year old plants of pomegranate having treatments composing of 4 organic mulches (i.e.No mulch, wheat straw, sugarcane baggas and safflower straw) and 5 different irrigation levels (i.e. 0.30 to 0.80 * ETr) through drip irrigation under split plot design. Amount of applied irrigation water for different treatments varied from 2597 to 9218 Liters per season per tree. The results indicated that organic mulches and irrigation level had significant effect on leaf area index, nos. of fruits, yield and water use efficiency. The highest water use efficiency was estimated with sugarcane baggas while the lowest WUE was estimated in no mulch.The mean maximum plant height, number of fruits, weight, growth, LAI,yield and WUE was evaluated at 0.50*ETr and 0.60*ETr irrigation level and sugarcane baggas mulch is the best for 4 and 5 old age pomegranate tree.

Authors: B. M. MOTE  , VYAS PANDEY  , D. D. PATIL
Published: January 2022

The present investigation was carried out to study the impact of climate change on summer groundnut in middle Gujarat using calibrated CROPGRO-peanut model by changing maximum and minimum temperatures by -2 to +30C and increasing concentration of CO2 upto 550 ppm. Results revealed that with increase in maximum temperature by 3 0C, the pod yield was decreased by 39 to 48 per cent in different cultivars. The effect of minimum temperature on pod yield was less as compared to maximum temperature. The simulated pod yield increased upto 41 per cent with elevated CO2 concentration of 550 ppm. However, if the maximum temperature was increased alongwith increase in CO2 concentration the pod yield could be compensated upto 2 0C with CO2 of 500 ppm, but further increasing of the maximum temperature and carbon dioxide caused decrease in the pod yield.

Published: January 2022

A study was conducted for three successive seasons (2014-17) to evaluate the effect of dibbling time on population dynamics of onion thrips (Thrips tabaci) on garlic dibbled on ten different dates starting from 1st September to 15th January at fortnight interval. The significant difference was observed in thrips population load among the dibbling dates. The garlic dibbled on early-December had maximum thrips load (41.8 thrips/plant) followed by both early and late-November sown crop (40 thrips/plant). The least mean of thrips population recorded with early-September planted garlic. Irrespective of sowing dates, highest thrips population peaks were recorded during 1st to 6th Standard Meteorological Week (SMW) of January and February. The maximum average of 59 thrips/plant were registered during early February (5th SMW). The dry spell coupled with optimum temperature (Tmax= 29 to 33°C and Tmin= 9 to14 °C) favoured thrips population build-up. The correlation analysis between thrips incidence and weather parameters showed significant negative correlation between thrips population and temperature as well as with precipitation.

MANUAL THERAPY AND PHARMACOTHERAPY IN THE REHABILITATION OF PATIENTS WITH PIRIFORMIS SYNDROME
Authors: Akopian Marianna
Published: January 2022

Piriformis syndrome (PS) is the low back pain manifestation that is accompanied by reversible compression of the sciatic nerve by the hypertrophied piriformis muscle. Among other low back pain manifestations the PS accounts for 6–35%. However, the PS diagnosis as well as its treatment is still difficult. There are many methods for the rehabilitation of patients with PS including invasive and non-invasive treatment. The drug therapy, injections of botulinum toxin A, sciatic nerve neurolysis, and piriformis muscle tenotomy are widely used, but they do not always lead to recovery, thereby making it necessary to search for new methods of treatment. Manual therapy has long been used in the rehabilitation of patients with low back pain. However, most often it is prescribed only as an additional therapy to the main treatment and not fully implemented. The manual therapy effectiveness as a monotherapy has not adequately been studied.

DYNAMIC SUPRASCAPULAR NERVE NEUROPATHY – «PAIN IN THE SCAPULAR AND SHOULDER». MANUAL DIAGNOSTICS AND TREATMENT
Authors: Stefanidi Alexander
Published: January 2022

Dynamic suprascapular nerve neuropathy is a cause of shoulder pain and weakness that is often overlooked. The difficulty in diagnosing the nerve dynamic damages is conditioned by the fact that the symptoms are provoked by physical exertion(s) or a certain position of the limb due to compression and(or) overstretching as well as violations of the longitudinal and transverse sliding of the nerve. These symptoms subside when the provoking factor ceases to act and return when movements repeat. Neurologic examinations and nerve conduction studies performed at rest usually show no change. The suprascapular nerve dysfunction is closely related to rotator cuff pathology. The nerve damage is often caused by a dynamic microtrauma during repetitive arm movements over the head with maximum deflection and external rotation of the arm. Suprascapular neuropathy can be caused by the nerve compression or traction in the suprascapular notch or spinoglenoid region. The nerve damage in the suprascapular notch causes weakness in both the supraspinatus and infraspinatus muscles, while damage under the spinoglenoid ligament affects only the infraspinatus muscle. Diagnostics should include manual testing of the supraspinatus and infraspinatus muscles with a neutral position of the arm and neck of the patient being examined and during provocative neurodynamic tests of stretching the suprascapular nerve. Therapeutic measures should be directed to all interdependent components of the peripheral nervous system in the following sequence: osteopathic treatment of the nerve trunk interface (tissues surrounding the nerve trunk); osteopathic treatment of the innervated tissue; osteopathic treatment of the connective tissue of the suprascapular nerve.

The article is dedicated to the analysis of the problems of manufacturing the local marks on the front panels of special equipment. The article deals with the issues of ensuring the transfer of the coloring material by the instrument.
The article investigates the physical processes of capillary interaction of liquid and solid substances at the stages: 1) applying paint to the tool; 2) state of saturation of the instrument with the coloring liquid; 3) applying of paint on a product.
For effective staining, it is necessary to concentrate the dye at the end of the instrument. But on a simple tool part flows down the surface and goes beyond the end. It is necessary to stop the flow of a liquid portion over the surface of the instrument and return the paint to the end of the instrument to simplify manipulations.
Tool shape model is proposed for the local application of identification marks on the front panels of special equipment. It is proposed to stop the movement of paint on the tool by limiting the area of distribution. Limitation is implemented by forming a reverse trimmed cone at the end of the tool. Gravity returns a portion of paint to the surface of the tool.

Creation of special technical means on the basis of SDR devices
Authors: Haryst Andrii
Published: January 2022

The article is devoted to the review of possibilities of creation of special
technical means on the basis of SDR devices and principles of construction of
transceiver devices which have a possibility of use at performance of various tasks
and the purposes. The principles of construction of SDR devices and their features
are considered in the article.
When creating special hardware, the basic principle is a flexible architecture that
can be changed with the help of software. This allows to organize communication
between two or more different types of devices, for example, to switch between
communication channels and change the type of modulation. When using SDR devices, it is possible to significantly simplify the technical part. The hardware platform can be
quickly reprogrammed to support new communication and data exchange standards.
Digital signal processing provides greater speed and it is easier to maintain than other
analog systems.
It is noted that the SDR receiver is a universal device that can combine the functions
of various radio devices. Following the concept of SDR, the author concludes that the
ideal SDR receiver should contain as few elements as possible, while an important factor in the use of SDR devices is the replacement of most analog components. It is emphasized that devices that are built on an analog element base have a much higher complexity of design than SDR devices and do not have the flexibility required in today’s conditions of rapid change in communication standards.

Authors: HS Sufyati
Published: January 2022

The rapid development of Islamic banking in Indonesia is still faced with the fact that public knowledge about Islamic banking is still low, thus affecting public interest in becoming customers. One of them that must be understood is the procedure for profit and loss sharing in the Islamic banking system. This study aims to determine the application of profit and loss sharing in Islamic banking in Indonesia. This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature review method. The results showed that the agreed profit sharing contract was the proportion of profit sharing (called profit sharing) in terms of the percentage of possible real productivity results with a profit sharing system based on two models, namely the mudharabah and musyarakah models. This study also explains the basic differences between profit and loss sharing (PLS) and the interest system between Islamic banks and conventional banks.
Réflexions sur les dispositions néoclassiques d'un dramaturge interdit

L'œuvre littéraire du dramaturge albanais Etëhem Haxhiademi avait été interdite, en raison de principes politiques vengeurs, pendant plus de quatre décennies. Il a été l'un des créateurs les plus notables de la tragédie albanaise révélant à l'époque moderne la littérature albanaise. En 1924, il écrivit la tragédie «Ulysse» à Berlin, en 1926 il écrivit la tragédie «Achille» à Vienne et en 1928 il écrivit la tragédie «Alexander» à Lushnje, Albanie. Les trois tragédies ont été publiées à Tirana, Albanie, en 1931. Plus tard, il écrit et publie la tragédie «Pyrrhus» (1934), «Scanderbeg» «Skënderbeu» (1935), «Diomedes» (1936) et «Abeles» (1938) ). Il était également connu comme le créateur du volume poétique «Lyra», (1939). Son œuvre dramatique a été mise en place selon des modèles de tragédie classique, utilisant des sujets antiques ou médiévaux, remontant même à la pré- biblique. histoire.

Lost in the maze? Husserl, Ortega and Gaos facing the challenges of cultural diversity
Authors: Yazid Hisyam
Published: January 2022

This article tries to show the way in which three prominent 20th century philosophers –– Edmund Husserl, José Ortega y Gasset and José Gaos–– have dealt with cultural diversity. Linked to each other by strong intellectual ties, the protagonists of the text propose three different ways of approaching this crucial and thorny issue in which the role assigned to reason is of special relevance. Husserl will trust her fully. Ortega, even the most Husserlian Ortega, will considerably lower such claims. And Gaos, radicalizing the perspectivist theses of his teacher, will consider that it is better to assume his impotence. The set of mirrors that the essay intends to create with the intersection of the three proposals aims to highlight the relevance of the philosophy made in Spanish in the most pressing debates of the present.
Subpolítica Reflexiva no Contexto da Mundialização Informativa aplicada à Regulação Supranacional da Internet
Authors: Bruna Pinotti Garcia
Published: January 2022

A rede mundial de computadores desponta não somente como um meio de comunicação, mas confere o caráter instrumental ao exercício de direitos, inclusive o de participação na subpolítica, de modo que passa a ser de interesse do indivíduo colocar -se como ator participativo no processo de discussão sobre a sua regulação. Nestes moldes, propõe-se a seguinte pergunta de pesquisa: é possível identificar no cenário comparativo da atuação de múltiplos atores na regulação da Internet traços de uma subpolítica reflexiva? Mostra-se relevante compreender a posição dos múltiplos atores no cenário de discussão sobre a regulação da Internet, o que somente é possível mediante o estudo de direito supranacional comparado contextualizado no que tange à subpolítica. A base empírica repousa em consultas sobre conferências da Organização das Nações Unidas, da Organização dos Estados Americanos, da União Europeia e do Conselho Europeu. Já a base teórica concentra-se em Ulrich Beck e Anthony Giddens e o conceito de modernidade reflexiva associado à política, conformando o que se denomina subpolítica reflexiva. Associando tais bases empíricas e teóricas apresenta-se uma pesquisa exploratória e qualitativa desenvolvida pelo método hipotético-dedutivo. Concluiu-se provada a hipótese de que, quanto à regulação da internet, percebe-se a emergência de agendas sobre a sua regulação que cada vez menos se restringem aos tradicionais atores regulamentares, permitindo uma maior participação do indivíduo nesse processo, com a verificação do delineamento da subpolítica em um conceito mais simplificado de mundialização, distanciado porém do que idealmente seria a subpolítica reflexiva. O artigo fornece à comunidade científica e à sociedade fundamentos cognitivos necessários para a sua inserção como atores sociais em espaços virtuais no campo da regulação supranacional das novas tecnologias da informação, apresentando um panorama teórico-fático desses processos de interação subjetiva. Os termos globalização e mundialização possuem múltiplos significados, o que não diminui a importância de compreendê-los cientificamente. Por seu turno, evidencia-se que o fenômeno da mundialização impõe o reconhecimento de que não cabe falar na política – e na atividade de regulação – como algo restrito aos Estados. A relevância do tema a ser pesquisado não é acompanhada de uma produção científica suficiente na área, eis que raríssimas são as abordagens sobre a governança digital na regulação da rede em âmbito supranacional.

Authors: Fahrurrozi Fahrurrozi , Pitaloka Felia , Gonggo Murcitro Bambang
Published: January 2022

Nitrogen (N) fertilization method is of great interest in nutrient management in sweet corn production. Sweet corn production areas in Indonesia have been increasingly extended to Ultisol land due to decline in the amount of arable land. Proper nitrogen management in Ultisols including the use of tithonia-based liquid organic fertilizer (LOF) as a way of reducing the use of synthetic N fertilizer need to be investigated. In this experiment, we aimed to determine the effects of various combinations of tithonia-based LOF and synthetic N on the growth and yields of sweet corn grown in Ultisols. This experiment was conducted from April to July 2018, in Bengkulu City, Indonesia at an elevation of 36 m above sea level and was arranged in complete randomized design with four replications. Treatments consisted of five combinations of LOF and synthetic N, i.e. 0 % LOF+100 % N, 25 % LOF+75 % of N, 50 % LOF+50 % N, 75 % LOF+25 % N, and 100 % LOF+0 % N. The results indicated that fertilizer combination composition significantly affected plant height, leaf greenness, husked ear weight, unhusked ear weight, and ear length of sweet corn, but did not affect leaf number and shoot dry weight. Overall, the use of 75% LOF in combination with 25% synthetic N produced similar results to 100% synthetic N. It was concluded that the use of tithonia-based LOF reduced the use of synthetic N fertilizer in sweet corn production grown in Ultisols. This conclusion should be further evaluated for sweet corn production under field conditions in Ultisols.

A Mission Statement Does Not a Mission Make: A Mixed Methods Investigation in Public Education
Authors: Coker David
Published: January 2022

Public schools widely use mission statements, and many educational administration programs teach mission statements as a necessary lever for school improvement. A mixed methods investigation examined three levels. An experiential phenomenological analysis examined graduate students’ experiences with mission statements within their own schools and professional life. A thematic analysis examined 80 schools in the Midwestern United States, broken down by high and low performance on state academic testing, ecological differences, quantitative structures of the mission statement, and qualitative themes and dimensions. A meta-synthesis compared findings with previous research. There were structural differences in mission statements, but the conclusion was mission statements were a legacy practice which served the political spectacle, and practitioners adopted the practice out of conformity. There was no direct evidence mission statements achieved the stated purpose. Recommendations were made to refashion mission statements and the school improvement process around four factors.

Authors: Al-Sarayra Khaled
Published: January 2022

The present study aimed to identify the predictive power of emotional intelligence in cyber violence among Jordanian university students. The researcher constructed the Cyber Violence Scale and translated the Emotional Intelligence Scale developed by Richa Jain (2015). Both scales had the appropriate indices of validity and reliability. The study sample consisted of 444 university students who participated from eight different courses to fulfill the requirements of the general college at Al-Balqa' Applied University in Jordan during the first semester of the 2016-2017 academic year. After collecting and analyzing the data, the following results emerged:

The calculated mean of cyber violence among students of Al-Balqa' Applied University was 2.74 with a standard deviation of 1.32, which indicates that the level of cyber violence is in the moderate range.

The overall level of emotional intelligence as well as the secondary dimensions of emotional intelligence (social skills, self-awareness, self-motivation, emotional regulation, empathy) were in the high range among students of Al-Balqa' Applied University.

There was a negative correlation between the overall level of emotional intelligence dimensions as well as the secondary dimensions of emotional intelligence (self-awareness, emotional regulation, self-motivation, empathy, social skills) and cyber violence.

Emotional intelligence dimensions accounted for 18% of cyber violence. Self-motivation and emotional regulation were the two most significant predictors of cyber violence.

Strategies to Reduce Inorganic Fertilizer Inputs in Crop Production through Integrated Crop-livestock Systems
Authors: Omokanye Akim , Zavala Yamily , Westerlund Dianne , Jeffrey Liisa , Al-Maqtari Buthaina
Published: January 2022

Adequate nutrition is essential for crop growth, production, and profit potential for farmers, but chemical fertilizer costs alone can constitute a greater portion of the total variable costs for wheat and canola. The present study evaluated seven cropping treatments (CT) in a 3-year crop rotation under two different soil types. Five of the CTs consisted of a one-time application (year 1) of beef cattle manure, and growing of cover crop cocktails (CCC) for annual pasture, swath grazing, green manure, and green feed. Canola and wheat were respectively grown in years 2 and 3 of the 3-year crop rotation. In year 2, CTs impacted canola seed yield and seed protein (only at site 2). Wheat had similar protein content in year 3 at both sites. At both sites, the application of beef cattle manure in year 1 seemed to encourage higher plant tissue P at the expense of plant tissue Zn. Overall, beef cattle manure and CCCs based CTs improved soil N, P, and K, but beef cattle manure application consistently improved crop yield and significantly reduced the need for additional in-organic fertilizer application to canola and wheat in subsequent years.
