Indonesia is one of the cocoa producers in the world, but Indonesia's cocoa production is still below the Ivory Coast and Ghana. One of the ways to increase production is by using good seeds. Good seeds can be obtained with optimal maintenance. Through the use of coconut water as waste containing nutrients and growth hormones, it is expected to increase growth components such as dry weight and leaf area. Good seeds when planted in the field will produce well too. The experiment was carried out in April – August 2021, in the Ciparanje experimental garden, Faculty of Agriculture, Padjadjaran University, Jatinangor with an altitude of 725-800 masl.

Melon productivity in Indonesia can be increased through the use of hybrid varieties. In order to obtain superior hybrids, information on general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) is needed as a guide in selecting parents and combinations of superior crosses effectively and efficiently and to obtain the necessary information about the action of genes controlling plant traits. The aim of this study was to estimate the combining ability and gene action of melon crosses using full dialelic crosses. The research was conducted at the Greenhouse of Brawijaya University, Karangploso District, Malang Regency. The genetic material used was five melon parents {ACD211303 (1), ACD211254 (2), ACD221362 (3), ACD231380 (4), ACD231265 (5) which were planted and crossed in full dialelic to produce F1 hybrids. This research was conducted by planting 25 melon genotypes in a randomized block design, repeated three times. The results of the analysis of variance showed significant differences for several growth characters, namely leaf length (cm), leaf width (cm), stem diameter (mm), plant length (cm) and flowering age (DAP). The analysis of SCA variants on the characters of leaf length, stem diameter, plant length and flowering age was higher than that of the DGU variant which indicated that non-additive gene action dominated the inheritance of most of the characters. Combining ability analysis showed that the mean square of general combining ability (GCA) was significantly good for all characters. The combination of 1x3, 1x4, 1x5, 2x5 and 3x4 crosses is a superior cross combination and deserves further consideration as a candidate for hybrid varieties.

The agricultural sector is one of the main motors driving the wheels of a country's economy. The development and improvement of the sector is an integral part of the national development goals that have a significant and comprehensive impact. However, the risk of business uncertainty such as crop failure due to natural disasters and pest attacks also poses a threat to business continuity. Thus, the existence of financial instruments such as agricultural insurance is the right solution to minimize economic losses from these risks. Unfortunately, the existing agricultural insurance system is not yet effective enough to provide fast, easy, and inclusive services for farmers. Seeing these problems, the author proposes a policy recommendation, namely Teman Tani, as an improvement to the more integrated Rice Farmer Business Insurance (AUTP) system for the agricultural sector. Under this system, insurance companies will carry out branchless insurance through the OJK's Laku Pandai program which involves agents to expand insurance coverage to farmers. Then, the process of determining the amount of premiums and submitting claims will be made faster and on target through a decentralized data-exchange process that involves collaboration with the DataBott Company's Hara Application. In the process of payment and withdrawal of insurance funds, cooperation with banks and telecommunications companies will be carried out to make it easier for farmers through the mobile banking system. Therefore, the Teman Tani program can protect farmers from the risk of business uncertainty so as to increase productivity and achieve the goal of financial inclusion.

Flows of Innovation in Fo Guang Shan Oceania: Transregional dynamics behind the Buddha’s Birthday Festival
Authors: Juewei Shi  , Sioh Yang Tan
Published: December 2022

Fo Guang Shan (FGS), a transnational Buddhist movement in the Chinese Mahāyāna tradition, has grown rapidly in the last fifty years to become a global network of close to 180 branch temples. For almost thirty years, FGS Oceania has invested heavily in the Buddha’s Birthday Festival annually in the form of weekend-long festivals in public spaces across Australia and New Zealand, involving months of planning and thousands of volunteers to welcome tens of thousands of visitors. FGS Oceania served as an incubator, exporter, and importer of innovations to make the Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha accessible to the public through these festivals. Here, we map the flows of such innovations among the headquarters in Taiwan, the Oceanic branches, and other regional headquarters to examine the dynamics of organisational learning that drive these innovations. Using a system of systems model, we argue that such flows were enabled by FGS’ culture of innovation and the independent yet collaborative nature of its transregional network.
Seeding Buddhism in New Zealand: Namgyal Rinpoche and the Lake Rotoiti Retreat, 1973
Authors: Tiddy Hadleigh
Published: December 2022

One of the earliest Buddhist events to take place in New Zealand was a three-month retreat led by a Canadian Buddhist teacher known as Namgyal Rinpoche, on the shores of Lake Rotoiti, in 1973. This article will provide a qualitative case study of the retreat, and show how the practices and motivations of the group reveal and challenge the assumptions of some of the theoretical frameworks scholars have used to interpret the spread of dharma to the West. Instead, more contemporary frameworks such as “lived religion” and “postmodern Buddhism” more accurately classify the group and their practices. In addition, I argue that a set of horticultural metaphors, proposed by Wakoh Shannon Hickey with the additional category of “seeding,” best describes the mechanisms of transmission that brought Buddhism to New Zealand.
Organotitanium Complexes Supported by a Dianionic Pentadentate Ligand

Published: December 2022

The tetrapyralzolylpyridyl diborate pentadentate ligand B2Pz4Py has been complexed to Ti(III) to form the chloro complex (B2Pz4Py)Ti(III)Cl, which is a convenient starting material for preparing alkyl and hydride derivatives of this ligand. The former (R = CH3 and CH2SiMe3) are highly thermally stable and do not react with dihydrogen to form (B2Pz4Py)Ti(III)H. Rather, treatment of the chloro starting material with NaHBEt3 affords the desired hydrido complex in 85% yield. This Ti(III) hydride was fully characterized and exists in both solution and the solid state as a dimeric species; dissociation into monomers faces a high barrier of over 40 kcal/mol, according to Density Function Theory computations. This is due to stabilization of the dimer by dispersion forces. The computations show that the dimer has an S = 1 ground state, but in solution, partial dissociation into an intermediate dimer which is an open shell singlet is possible, which accounts for the lower than expected magnetic susceptibility of 1.93 per dimer. Full dissociation into reactive monomers does not occur, based on the observed lack of reactivity with carbon dioxide. All of these com-pounds react with water to form a mu-oxo dinuclear species, which reacts further with dioxygen to form oxidized peroxo and oxo Ti(IV) complexes. All three of these compounds were fully characterized.
Reducing Exact Two-Component Theory for NMR Couplings to a One-Component Approach: Efficiency and Accuracy
Authors: Franzke Yannick J.
Published: December 2022

The self-consistent and complex spin-orbit exact two component (X2C) formalism for NMR spin-spin coupling constants [J. Chem. Theory Comput. 17, 3974-3994 (2021)] is reduced to a scalar one-component ansatz. This way, the first-order response term can be partitioned into the Fermi-contact (FC) and spin-dipole (SD) interactions as well as the paramagnetic spin-orbit (PSO) contribution. The FC+SD terms are real and symmetric, while the PSO term is purely imaginary and antisymmetric. The relativistic one-component approach is combined with a modern density functional treatment up to local hybrid functionals including the response of the current density. Computational demands are reduced by factors of 8-24 as shown for a large tin compound consisting of 137 atoms. Limitations of the current ansatz are critically assessed, i.e. the one-component treatment is not sufficient for tin compounds featuring a few heavy halogen atoms.

Transitioning toward more sustainable materials and manufacturing methods will be critical to continue supporting the rapidly expanding market for lithium-ion batteries. Meanwhile, energy storage applications are demanding higher power and energy densities than ever before, with aggressive performance targets like fast charging and greatly extended operating ranges and durations. Due to its high operating voltage and cobalt-free chemistry, the spinel-type LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 (LNMO) cathode material has attracted great interest as one of the few next-generation candidates capable of addressing this combination of challenges. However, severe capacity degradation and poor interphase stability have thus far impeded the practical application of LNMO. In this study, by leveraging a dry electrode coating process, we demonstrate LNMO electrodes with stable full cell operation (up to 68% after 1000 cycles) and ultra-high loading (up to 9.5 mAh/cm2 in half cells). This excellent cycling stability is ascribed to a stable cathode-electrolyte interphase, a highly distributed and interconnected electronic percolation network, and robust mechanical properties. High-quality images collected using plasma focused ion beam scanning electron microscopy (PFIB-SEM) provide additional insight into this behavior, with a complementary 2-D model illustrating how the electronic percolation network in the dry-coated electrodes more efficiently supports homogeneous electrochemical reaction pathways. These results strongly motivate that LNMO as a high voltage cobalt-free cathode chemistry combined with an energy-efficient dry electrode coating process opens the possibility for sustainable electrode manufacturing of cost-effective and high-energy-density cathode materials.
Central role of entropy in thermodynamics
Authors: Farshad Mohsen
Published: December 2022

Providing a simple description of entropy as the foundation of thermodynamics is necessary for researchers in explaining physical phenomena in the universe. Here we dive deep into the meaning of entropy starting from the basics and ending with the Newton's second law of motion which may be rooted in a hidden dimension as the foundation of entropy. Toward this end, after coming up with a general relation for the net entropic energy of a process regardless of its irreversibility, we recover the entropy production relation. Using this relation, we show how the inequality in macroscopic states between work and Helmholtz free energy during the non-equilibrium process converts to equality between reversible microscopic works of microscopic degrees of freedom and Helmholtz free energy change of maximum useful work. In the end, we provide a mathematical solution to this equality that may tell us about the foundation of entropy from underlying degrees of freedom that currently remain unknown to us.
A Detailed Chemical Kinetic Model for the Destruction of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS): Pyrolysis and Incineration of Short-Chain Perfluorinated Carboxylic and Sulfonic Acids
Authors: Narimani Milad , Khan Yasir , da Silva Gabriel
Published: December 2022

Chemical processes to destroy per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are being actively developed to deal with contaminated soil and water, legacy waste streams, and unwanted stockpiles of these hazardous compounds. Common to these processes are complex networks of chemical reactions, including thermal decomposition, oxidation and/or hydrolysis steps, and the development and optimization of destruction technology requires predictive chemical kinetic modelling tools. Here we report the first detailed chemical kinetic model targeted at PFAS destruction, capable of describing the pyrolysis and incineration of perfluorinated carboxylic acids up to C3 and perfluorinated sulfonic acids up to C2. Simulations of the pyrolysis and incineration of these PFAS indicate that reaction is initiated via degradation of the acid headgroup, followed by chain-shortening via carbonyl (acyl fluoride) intermediates. Although applied to gas-phase degradation of short-chain perfluorinated acids, the model provided here should prove useful as a basis for modelling the destruction of a diverse range of PFAS both in condensed and supercritical phases.
MMS22L-TONSL functions in sister chromatid cohesion in a pathway parallel to DSCC1-RFC
Authors: van Schie Janne JM , de Lint Klaas , Pai Govind M , Rooimans Martin A , Wolthuis Rob MF , de Lange Job
Published: December 2022

The leading strand–oriented alternative PCNA clamp loader DSCC1-RFC functions in DNA replication, repair, and sister chromatid cohesion (SCC), but how it facilitates these processes is incompletely understood. Here, we confirm that loss of human DSCC1 results in reduced fork speed, increased DNA damage, and defective SCC. Genome-wide CRISPR screens in DSCC1-KO cells reveal multiple synthetically lethal interactions, enriched for DNA replication and cell cycle regulation. We show that DSCC1-KO cells require POLE3 for survival. Co-depletion of DSCC1 and POLE3, which both interact with the catalytic polymerase ε subunit, additively impair DNA replication, suggesting that these factors contribute to leading-strand DNA replication in parallel ways. An additional hit is MMS22L, which in humans forms a heterodimer with TONSL. Synthetic lethality of DSCC1 and MMS22L-TONSL likely results from detrimental SCC loss. We show that MMS22L-TONSL, like DDX11, functions in a SCC establishment pathway parallel to DSCC1-RFC. Because both DSCC1-RFC and MMS22L facilitate ESCO2 recruitment to replication forks, we suggest that distinct ESCO2 recruitment pathways promote SCC establishment following either cohesin conversion or de novo cohesin loading.

Cosmos Encapsulated: The Maṇḍala-stūpa of Borobudur–its Polysemic Form and Functions | Cosmos yang terangkum: Maṇḍala-stūpa Borobudur, bentuk polisemi dan fungsinya
Authors: Suebsantiwongse Saran
Published: December 2022

Scholars have long debated the form and functions of Borobudur, whether it is a maṇḍala, a stūpa or both. Two Buddhist maṇḍalas have tentatively been assigned to the structure, namely the Vajradhātumaṇḍala and the Mahākaruṇagarbhadhātumaṇḍala. But as the concurrence between the structural and iconographical details of the monument and the textual evidence are yet to be matched precisely, research on the exact nature of Borobudur is still current more than a century after its re-discovery in modern times. Recapping and building on different scholarly views to date, this paper presents yet another interpretation, insights into, and possible functions of this ancient megastructure.
 
Para sarjana telah lama bardebat tentang bentuk dan fungsi Borobudur: apakah itu merupakan sebuah maṇḍala, stūpa, atau keduanya. Untuk sementara, dua maṇḍala buddhist telah dinisbatkan kepada struktur tersebut, yaitu Vajradhātumaṇḍala dan Mahākaruṇagarbhadhātumaṇdala. Tetapi, karena kesesuaian antara detail struktur dan ikonografis monumen serta bukti tekstualnya belum dicocokkan dengan tepat, penelitian tentang sifat persis Borobudur berlangsung lebih dari satu abad sejak penemuannya di era modern. Merangkum dan membangun dari berbagai pendapat hingga saat ini, makalah ini menyajikan interpretasi lain, wawasan, dan kemungkinan fungsi-fungsi lain bagunan megastruktur kuno ini.
Türkiye’nin Çok Partili Siyasal Sisteme Geçiş Sürecinde Milli İrade Söylemi ve 1946 Genel Seçimleri
Authors: AYDOĞAN Pınar
Published: December 2022

Çok partili siyasal sisteme geçiş sürecinde 1946 genel seçimleri, Türk siyasal yaşamındaki önemli eşiklerden biri olmuştur. İlk kez “tek dereceli” ve “çok partili” olarak yapılan 1946 seçimleri öncesinin incelenmesi siyasal yaşama dair önemli noktalar içermektedir. Seçime giden süreçte dönemin en etkin figürü Cumhurbaşkanı İsmet İnönü’nün çıktığı yurt gezilerinde, yaptığı konuşmalarda, verdiği demeçlerde ve gazetelere yansıyan yazılarda kuvvetli bir sandığa gitme çağrısı hakim olmuştur. Vatandaşa bir “seçmen” olduğunu hatırlatan, “demokrasi”ye, “milli irade”ye giden yolun “sandık”tan geçtiğini, oy vermenin “milli bir görev, kutsal bir borç” olduğunu vurgulayan bu çağrılarda “milli irade”, “seçim” ve “oy çokluğu” birlikteliğine olan vurgu güçlüdür. Vatandaş seçmen olarak büyük bir önem kazanırken, milli irade Meclis ile demokrasi sandık ile özdeşleştirilmiştir. Yapılan bu çalışmada, 1946 genel seçimleri öncesi İsmet İnönü, CHP yöneticileri ve basın tarafından vatandaşlara yapılan seçimlere katılım çağrısının ve bu yöndeki propagandanın “milli irade” söylemiyle ilişkisi ele alınacaktır. Seçim çağrılarına ve seçim sonrası zafer konuşmalarına yansıyan, Türk siyasal yaşamının baskın bir tonu olan “milli irade” söyleminin ilk izlerine işaret edilecektir. Çalışmada, 1946 seçimleri öncesinde başta İsmet İnönü’nün seçim öncesi demeçleri olmak üzere dönemin gazeteleri (Ulus, Akşam, Vakit, Cumhuriyet) taranarak analiz edilmiştir.

Kent kalkınmasının önünü açacak her türlü kamu politikası bugün dünyada kentlerin yerini göz ardı edemediğiz gerçeğiyle birleşince hayati bir önem kazanmaktadır. Yerel kamu politikalarının başarılı olarak adledilmesinde halkın memnuniyeti büyük bir etkendir. Memnuniyetin ölçülebilmesi için ise halkın belli bir bilgi düzeyine sahip olması gerekmektedir. Bu fikirden yola çıkılarak oluşturulan bu araştırmada öncelikle Filyos kentinde Vadi Projesi hakkında halkın genel bilgi ve memnuniyet düzeyinin ölçülmesi amaçlanmıştır. Daha sonra da proje süreci sonrasında kentte ortaya çıkabilecek sorunlar hakkında halkın taşıdığı kaygı ve projenin kentin kalkınmasındaki rolü katılımcıların görüşlerine dayanılarak tespit edilmeye çalışılmıştır.

Yapılan alan araştırması sonucunda elde edilen en önemli bulgulardan biri projeye yönelik halkın genel bilgi ve memnuniyet düzeyinin belli bir seviyede olduğudur. Halkın projeye yönelik daha ziyade olumlu bir görüşe sahip olduğu bu araştırmayla ortaya çıkmıştır ki projenin bölgenin kalkınmasına katkı sağlayacağına dair algı oldukça yaygındır. Katılımcıların cevapları doğrultusunda halkın en büyük kaygısının ise çevreye ve kentleşmeye yönelik oluşacak muhtemel sorunlarla ilgi olduğu da tespitler arasındadır.
