Authors: Cantürk Uğur , Çobanoğlu Hatice , Beyazyüz Fadime , Koç İsmail
Published: October 2023

Changes in temperature and precipitation due to global climate change negatively affect plant species' growth, development, and adaptation to new places. However, genetic structure is the most critical criterion for determining a species's potential to adapt to changing environmental conditions. Monitoring gas exchange parameters in plants is the simplest way to monitor physiological changes in plants under changing environmental factors. Among species, the Anatolian chestnut (Castanea sativa) is native and economically important tree species (fruit and wood production). It is naturally distributed from the north side of Turkey, Marmara, and Western Anatolia. However, the Anatolian chestnut is one of the most affected tree species by global climate change. In this study, numerous Anatolian chestnut populations (3 years old) were used to determine leaf gas exchange parameters at the end of the growing season in Düzce. Stomatal conductance (gs), transpiration rate (E), net photosynthetic rate (Anet), and other parameters were measured. As a result, the leaf gas exchange parameters of chestnut populations changed significantly based on the populations. Marigoule population seedlings had 2-fold Anet values compared to the Ibradı population. Regarding gs, the differences between populations (Erfelek and Ibradı) changed approximately 2.5 folds and the differences (Erfelek and Ibradı) increased more than 3 folds in terms of E values. It can be said that Marigoule and Erfelek populations can adapt more to Düzce climate conditions than other populations. In contrast, Ibradi population seedlings have a low adaptation mechanism in terms of gas exchange traits.

Published: October 2023

The study aimed to evaluate the pH, water activity (aw), residual nitrite, lactic acid bacteria, Micrococcus/Staphylococcus, Enterobacteriaceae and yeast-mould in fermented sausage samples from different firms. A total of 30 sucuk and 30 heat-treated sucuk samples were taken from 10 different brands with different batch numbers. According to analysis results, all samples, with the exception of some heat-treated sucuk samples from one brand, provided pH values that were within the permitted limit of regulation. For sucuk, mean aw value of only one brand was below 0.90, while aw values for heat-treated sucuk were in the range of 0.928 to 0.957. All samples had residual nitrite levels less than 15 mg/kg (in the range of 7.84-14.80 mg/kg). Yeast-mould and Enterobacteriaceae numbers were often below <2 log cfu/g. The number of Staphylococcus and Micrococcus showed a wide variation in both products which was <2 - 5.96 log cfu/g for sucuk and <2 - 7.85 log cfu/g for heat-treated sucuk. Lactic acid bacteria counts varied between 2-<4.0 log cfu/g in 40% of heat-treated sucuk samples. In sucuk, the number of lactic acid bacteria was <6 log cfu/g in 23.33% of the samples, and 6-<8 log cfu/g in 50% of the samples.

Published: October 2023

Hidabu Abote, Dera, Wera Jarso and Debra Libanos districts of North Shewa zone are potential in honey production. To enhance this potential, different organizations disseminate improved beehives technologies for the smallholder farmers. However, the impact of the disseminated technologies on household income has not been evaluated. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the impact of improved beehive adoption on household income. Purposive and two stage sampling technique was used to select 384 sampled households. The study used logistic regression model to identify the determinants of adoption decision of modern beehive technology while propensity score matching to evaluate the impact of modern beehive technology adoption on household income. The result of logistic regression model shows that age of household head, family size, households experience in beekeeping, frequency of extension contact, access to credit services, access to training and access to beehive demonstration site visit had positive and significant effect on household adoption decision of modern beehive technology. The result of propensity score matching indicates that the adopters of improved beehive technology were earned Birr 2690.383 than non-adopter. The difference in household income between the two groups shows that there is considerable room for improvement of household income through increasing the number of adopter of improved beehives technology in the study area. This should be done through provision of training, credit, extension and expansion of beehive demonstration site among the others.

Published: October 2023

Sorbitol is an important source of abiotic stress that is used to increase osmolality in cell cultures. It increases the antioxidant enzymes of defense catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the stress state of cells. Sorbitol plays an important role in stimulating these enzymes in cells and increasing phenylalanine ammonium lyase (PAL) activity. The aim of this study was to apply increasing doses of sorbitol elicitor to cell suspension cultures to determine the changes in cell number, viability, dry weight, and camphor content. In vitro plantlets were obtained from plant seeds and stem segments of these plants were used as explant source. Cell cultures were established after callus formation. Then, 0 (control), 5, 25, and 50 g L-1 sorbitol was dissolved in distilled water and cultured. Samples were taken three times in total, starting from day 1 to day 3. The content of camphor was detected by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Cell number, viability,dry weight, and camphor content increased significantly with increasing doses of sorbitol compared to sampling times. Compared to the initial culture, the amount of camphor increased by 40% at the 5 g L-1 dose, 82% at the 25 g L-1 dose, and 154% at the 50 g L-1 dose. In A. gypsicola cell cultures, increasing doses of sorbitol have clearly demonstrated the secondary metabolite accumulation and its positive effect on cell growth.

Published: October 2023

The preservation of genetic diversity is a paramount concern in addressing global challenges today. The foundation of biological diversity hinges on its genetic components, and the loss of species and genetic variability poses a genuine threat to the biosphere. This is because the sustainability of natural ecosystems and agroecosystems depends directly on their genetic adaptability to changing environmental conditions.

In cattle, genes associated with milk yield play a crucial role, including genes related to milk proteins and hormones. Among these, the pituitary-specific transcription factor (PIT1) and growth hormone (GH) genes are of particular significance. In this study, we investigated the polymorphism of these genes in the Lebedyn breed of cattle.

A total of 2 gene polymorphisms, PIT1 and GH, were examined through molecular and genetic research conducted at the genetics laboratory of the Institute of Animal Breeding and Genetics named after M. V. Zubets, part of the National Academy of Agrarian Science of Ukraine. The study utilized 32 DNA samples extracted from the venous blood of Lebedyn breed cows using the 'DNA Sorb-B' kit from AmpliSens. Genotyping was carried out through polymerase chain reaction (PCR-RFLP) analysis of restriction fragment length polymorphism, employing the “Tertsyk” amplifier for PCR. The resulting DNA restriction analysis products were assessed via electrophoresis in a 2–3% agarose gel containing ethidium bromide, with DNA fragment lengths determined using the GeneRuler TM 50 bp DNA Ladder and Thermo Scientific™ GeneRuler 1 kb Plus DNA Ladder markers.

For the PIT1 gene analysis, a 451 bp amplified fragment was treated with the enzyme HinfI, yielding the following allele frequencies: A (0.38) and B (0.62). The heterozygous AB genotype was the most prevalent (0.45), while homozygotes for the A allele constituted 0.15 of the population. In the case of the GH gene fragment (223 bp), hydrolysis was performed using the restriction enzyme AluI. Analysis of allele frequency distribution indicated a high frequency of the L allele (0.85), with no animals exhibiting the homozygous GHVV genotype, and the GHLL genotype was present in 0.7 of the population.

These findings reveal unique features of the allelic spectrum of the PIT1 (V-0.62) and GH (L-0.85) genes specific to the Ukrainian indigenous Lebedyn breed of cows. Selectionally significant genotypes include PIT1AA (15%) and GHLL (70%), while heterozygote carriers, which contribute to genetic diversity within the population, account for 45% and 30%, respectively.

This study’s results hold particular value due to the alarming decline in the population of local indigenous breeds and the imminent threat to the preservation of agricultural genetic resources.

The work deals with the development of AC welding arc stabilization devices that provide a qualitatively different level of functionality to industrial frequency welding transformers. It is shown that despite the rapid spread and use of inverter sources of direct current for arc welding of metals, welding with alternating current, using simple and unpretentious welding transformers, which work at the frequency of the current of the industrial power supply network, continues to be relevant. With regard to manual arc welding with coated electrodes and a non-fusible electrode on alternating current of industrial frequency, the problem of increasing the stability of arc burning is solved thanks to the use of impulse stabilizers of arc burning. Thepurpose of the study is to increase the energy efficiency of industrial frequency alternating current welding power sources due to the development of arc stabilization devices at the modern level.The choice of the polarity of the pulses significantly affects the parameters of the stabilizing device and the AC welding process. Studies of the influence of the pulse polarity on the parameters of the pulse arc stabilizers themselves have been carried out. The schematic implementation of stabilization devices using stabilizing pulses, the polarity of which is opposite to the polarity of the arc current, is considered.The experience of using the developed stabilizers allows us to conclude that they provide sufficiently high stability of arc burning from an alternating current welding transformer during manual arc welding of low-alloy structural steels covered with electrodes, arc welding of stainless and other special steels, arc welding of cast iron, during non-fusible argon arc welding electrode of stainless steels, aluminum and its alloys with the contact method of initial ignition of the arc

The initial prerequisites for the development of technology for turning welded parts are determined, which include the calculation of allowances and boundary dimensions of the product in accordance with technological transitions and the thick-ness of the welded coating. An approach to setting the depth of cut is proposed, which ensures that the coating layer on the machined part has the best and most stable properties, which gives the product better performance, in particular, greater wear resistance. In general, the average depth of cut can be determined using the curve of the relative bearing surface of the coating profile, and, taking into account the Hirst method, the variable part of the depth of cut during coating processing can be determined through the fractal dimension of the surface profile. Some approaches to determining the cutting speed based on the requirements for ensuring the quality of the deposited coating layer and the stability of the cutting tool, as well as the geometric parameters of the tool, taking into account the properties of the material being processed, are considered.

O artigo discute a relação entre a avaliação institucional, a partir dos indicadores do ENADE e do CPC, e os elementos aplicados à construção de uma cultura de inovação com base nos elementos estabelecidos pela norma ISO 56002. A literatura destaca que ambos os elementos podem se relacionar no sentido de constituírem padrões para o estabelecimento de ações voltadas à inovação no âmbito dos cursos estudados, e indica possibilidades para a integração destes processos para a manutenção da qualidade institucional. Por meio de uma investigação qualitativa, pautada em um guia de entrevistas semiestruturado, foi possível investigar um conjunto de cursos de Administração que possuem conceitos 5 no ENADE e no CPC. Os resultados mostram que, mesmo em meio a críticas, tanto o ENADE quanto o CPC estabelecem elementos culturais que induzem praticas inovadoras nas IES investigadas. Ambos os indicadores fomentam uma cultura de apoio à inovação, de compartilhamento de conhecimento e favorecem o surgimento de novas lideranças. Além disso, os resultados também demonstram que o ENADE e o CPC favorecem ações baseadas em conhecimento e decisões estratégicas que podem considerar o potencial inovativo de seus resultados.
The Brazilian Military Dictatorship: a Present Past
Authors: PATTO SA MOTTA RODRIGO
Published: October 2023

The 1964 coup in Brazil launched a military dictatorship that for two decades subjected diverse social groups to authoritarianism and repressive violence. In 1985, the last military president was replaced by a civilian government following an agreement between dissident factions of the dictatorship and a section of the democratic opposition. This agreed transition allowed the military institutions to remain untouched and united, preserved from punishment or any need to express regret, while the Constitution approved in 1988 tried to set the grounds for a lasting democracy. These events from the 1980s have continued to shape politics in Brazil, including the more recent political scenario, which from 2014 experienced a radical shift rightwards that strengthened those discourses nostalgic for the dictatorship and gave rise to the Bolsonarist phenomenon.

The purpose of my presentation is to synthesize this process as a means to understand the present political situation. In the conclusion, I comment on the role of the military corporation in the current Lula government and develop some hypotheses concerning the political future of the armed forces in Brazil.

Ways of expressing comparison in the Taz dialect of the Selkup language
Authors:   Institute of Philology of the SB RAS, Novosibirsk, Russian Federation, Ilyina L.A.
Published: October 2023

The Taz Selkups are the most significant single-dialect speaking group. Being isolated from the Russian population, they did not know Russian until the second half of the 20th century. The documented texts of the traditional Taz Selkup folklore were analyzed to identify the diachronically early ways of expressing comparative relations. It was found that the equivalent comparison prevails in diachronically early mythological texts and is realized by syntactic constructions denoting similarity. The comparative relation of similarity of the object and the standard of comparison according to a certain characteristic is expressed mainly by postpositions. The postpositions tarД (tar) ‘like’, ‘like someone else’, car ‘how’, saqyn ‘respectively’, ‘similarly’, ‘just like’, and kəpy ‘with value’ are combined with pronouns and nouns in the possessive and non-possessive form of the genitive. The postpositional construction functioning rule is to place the word preceding the postposition in the genitive form. All the postpositions mentioned (except car) are commonly used in non-metaphorical comparisons. The postposition car functions in metaphorical comparisons, requiring the preceding word in the locative adjectival form. A synthetic indicator, the special “coordinate” case affix šaŋ, is sometimes used to express an equivalent comparison mainly in diachronically early constructions of complicated sentences, with verbal nouns and adverbial participles predominating. A non-equivalent comparison reflecting the differences between the object and the standard is realized by constructions including the object of comparison (noun or pronoun in the main case), the standard of comparison (a noun or a pronoun in the form of an ablative), and the sign underlying the comparison (an adjective or an adverb).
The image of the spirit-mistress of the earth in the olohkho epic. Part 1: Static and dynamic characteristics
Authors:   North-Eastern Federal University named after M. K. Ammosov, Yakutsk, Russian Federation, Satanar M.T.
Published: October 2023

Currently, there appears to be a significant demand for addressing the image of Mother Earth. This study was intended to identify the main characteristics of the image of the spirit–mistress of the earth, Aan Alakhchyn Khotun, in the olonkho epic. Use was made of the structural, functional, and semantic analysis, as well as of the review and generalization, with the principle of historicism being the key one. The analysis has revealed the following stable signs of the image: being a female, a predominance of white color, nudity of breasts, elegant clothes, localization in the world tree, divine origin, and the functions of a nurse, protector, or adviser. A cane and a ladle in her hands or a shamanic tambourine and a mallet have been found to be characteristic attributes of the appearance. The natural prima materia and, in some texts, the anthropomorphic images (little people) of Ereke-Dyereke tend to accompany the arrival of Aan Alakhchyn Khotun. Emphasis is placed on the ornithomorphic hypostasis of the spirit of the words of the image in the form of a cuckoo. The early records demonstrate the phytomorphic hypostasis of the image in question in the form of a fusion of the images of the spirit of the tree and the hostess of the place. A conclusion is drawn that the semantic features of the image of Aan Alakhchyn Hotun reflect the multi-temporal nature of their historical appearances, suggesting further genetic studies to explore the archaic image of the spirit-mistress of the earth.

Capsular block syndrome (CBS) is one of complications of modern cataract surgery technique, due to restriction of fluid passage from the capsular bag, which in different terms of postoperative period of cataract phacoemulsification may lead to reduction of both anatomical and functional results of surgery. The treatment of choice of the capsular block syndrome, especially during early postoperative period, is YAG laser dissection of the posterior capsule, which in most cases allows restoring transparency and refraction. In cases like lactocrumenasia (a variant of late CBS) it is not always possible to visualize the posterior capsule and evacuate the contents, therefore, the treatment of choice can be surgical dissection and aspiration of the contents. However, according to the literature, there is a possibility of infection of isolated capsule contents which obliges to correctly and carefully determine the surgical tactics in such cases. This article presents a rare case of late postoperative capsular block syndrome with hyperopic shift in a patient with proliferative diabetic retinopathy and silicone tamponade of the vitreous cavity. Key words: capsular block syndrome; hyperopic shift; cataract phacoemulsification.

Purpose.To present the results of personalized navigated panretinal laser coagulation in the treatment of proliferative diabetic retinopathy based on angioimaging data. Methods. Personalized navigated panretinal laser coagulation of the retina using Navilas 577s navigated laser system (OD-OS, Germany) was performed in 15 patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Angioimages obtained by optical coherence tomography or data from wide-field fluorescein angiography (off-label) were superimposed on photographs of the retina obtained on the navigated laser system. Based on the image obtained in this way, boundaries of nonperfusion, areas of neovascularization were determined, after which individual planning of navigated panretinal laser coagulation was performed. Results. The results of navigated panretinal laser coagulation were evaluated before each subsequent session of laser treatment, the final control examination was carried out 1 month after the last session. Average total duration of laser treatment was 4.25±0.93 months. According to wide-field SOCT angiography, ischemic zones were blocked and did not extend beyond the laser exposure. At the same time, perfused areas of the retina were intact. Conclusion.Angiovisualization in modern diagnostic devices makes it possible to determine the individual boundaries of nonperfusion zones, develop a personalized plan for panretinal laser coagulation and presence of navigation support for the procedure makes it possible to implement the planned treatment accurately in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Key words: proliferative diabetic retinopathy; navigated panretinal laser coagulation; angioimaging.

Digital system has been a part of human life since the invention of the computer with a microprocessor as the central brain. At the heart of a processor is an Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) that handles arithmetic and logic operations. The need for high-speed computation to handle complex computations demands microprocessors with higher performance. The existing 4-opcode 8-bit ALU cannot handle multiplication operations, so a solution is needed. In this research, while raising the appeal of beginners, a 12-bit ALU with eight operation codes (opcode) was designed and implemented in Xilinx’s Field Programmable Gate Array using a schematic diagram approach through logic gates. The designed and implemented ALU provides addition, subtraction, multiplication, square, AND, OR, NAND, and XOR operations. The multiplication operation was tested by performing the computation to provided datasets to obtain the distance travelled by ten military aircraft based on their maximum speed and air travel duration to ensure its performance. The computation performance comparison with an 8-bit ALU with four opcodes was also done. The computation was done for air travel between 10 to 60 minutes with a 10-minute difference. It was found that the 12-bit ALU with eight opcodes outperformed its contender with computation differences between 130.815 ns and 1,468.214 ns. This high performance is supported by the multiply operation that does repeated addition at one time. Based on this finding, the 8-opcode 12-bit ALU is more efficient in the context of computation time, with consistent accuracy. Moreover, the computation time required to calculate military aircraft data with different maximum speeds and air travel duration is only 119.501 ns.

In the process industry, a control system is important to ensure the process runs smoothly and keeps the product under predetermined specifications.  Oscillations in process variables can affect the decreasing profitability of the plant.  It is important to detect the oscillation before it becomes a problem for profitability.  Various methods have been developed; however, the methods still need to improve when implemented online for multi-oscillation. Therefore, this research uses a machine learning-based method with the K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN) algorithm to detect multi-oscillation in the control loop, and the detection methods are made to carry out online detection from real plants.  The developed method simulated the Tennessee Eastman Process (TEP), and it used Python programming to create a KNN model and extract time series data into the frequency domain.  The Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) communication protocol has been used to implement as an online system.  The result of the implementation showed that two KNN models were made with different window size variations to get the best performance model.  The best model for multi-oscillation detection was obtained with an F1 score of 76% for detection.

Pneumonia is a lower tract respiratory infection due to bacteria or viruses. It is a severe disease in the pediatric population. Pneumonia is the leading cause of mortality in children under five years worldwide. One of the problems with pneumonia is the diagnosis, as the symptoms of pneumonia may overlap with other diseases, such as asthma and bronchiolitis. In this work, we propose to develop a method for classifying pneumonia and non-pneumonia using X-ray images. We collected 60 X-ray images from Dr. Sardjito Hospital, Yogyakarta, Indonesia, and the dataset from Kaggle. We processed these images through pre-processing algorithms to enhance the image quality, segmentation, white pixel computation, and classification. The novelty of our method is using the ratio of the white pixels from edge detection using the Canny algorithm with the white pixels from segmentation for classifying pneumonia/non-pneumonia. In the Kaggle dataset, our proposed method achieved an accuracy of 86.7%, a sensitivity of 100%, and a specificity of 85%. The classification using the dataset from Dr. Sardjito Hospital yields sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of 80%, 60%, and 66.7%, respectively. Despite the low performance in the results, we proved our novel feature, ratio of white pixels, can be used to classify pneumonia/non-pneumonia. We also identified that the local dataset is essential in the algorithm development as it has a different quality from the dataset from modern countries. Further, our simple method can be developed further to support pneumonia diagnosis in resource-limited settings where the advanced computing devices or cloud connection are not available.
