A conservation area that has cultural-based fisheries activities, traditional leaders play a role as activity controllers and have a vision to conserve and provide protection in the area around this customary lake. On the other hand, ecologically, Bakuok Lake is very worrying. Based on the rules regarding the prohibition on Lake Bakuok, not all of these rules were carried out and implemented properly, even though there were already monitoring, there were still violations that occurred. The number of institutions involved in the development of Lake Bakuok have so far been temporary or temporary in nature, and have run separately and have not yet formed a systematic collaboration. This study aims to see how to strengthen local institutions in the sustainable management of Lake Bakuok. This research uses qualitative research methods that aim to obtain a holistic (holistic) picture of a phenomenon in Lake Bakuok. The results showed several important items that the institutional strengthening of lolak in the management of Danau Bakuok was not optimal. As seen from the dimension of human resource development that has not been maximized where there is no training or technical provisioning in order to increase skills. The dimension of organizational strengthening is also not optimal even though there is support for several activities but it is only temporary and unsustainable. Meanwhile, in the institutional reform dimension, it was found that several rules and regulations that had been made by ninik mamak were still violated.

Development of a throttle and dampening device for the nuclear power plant of icebreaker LK-60
Authors: Sukhorukova E. A. , Kolpakov S. P.
Published: July 2021

In the course of developing designs for mixing heat exchangers that operate on the principle of throttling the working medium on perforated grids, special attention is paid to ensuring the reliability of structures subject to erosive wear when subjected to dripping moisture and temperature stresses.JSC “NPO CKTI” has years of experience in the development of contact-type heat exchangers and was directly involved in the design of separate power plant equipment for LK-60, including a throttle and dampening device (TDD).It provides a description of the functional purpose of the TDD as part of the LK-60 nuclear power plant, the principle of operation and significant differences of the new design from those previously used. It is noted that while in previous designs the TDD included four columns connected in pairs, on LK-60 there are two columns located on top of the condenser. The TDD for LK-60 is designed to receive 132.5 t / h of steam of higher parameters than the previous generation designs intended to receive about 50 t / h of steam.The main technical solutions in the development of the design of the TDD are presented. The design provides access to the throttling lattices for diagnostics and their replacement if necessary which ensures a high degree of maintainability and reliability of the device. Perforation of the lattices arranged in series in the direction of the steam flow is made in such a way that the openings of the previous lattice, if possible, are not located opposite the openings of the subsequent lattice. The distance between the throttling lattices was taken from the conditions for ensuring the design course of the steam throttling process.Results are given of thermal and hydraulic calculations of the TDD. The calculation consists of two main parts. The first part includes thermal and hydraulic calculations with the determination of the degree of perforation of the lattices, the distribution of temperature and vapor pressure over the cross-sections of the TDD, etc. The second part contains the calculation of the cooling condensate injection nozzles.In the course of design studies, strength calculations were performed for all versions of TDD and individual parts. In addition, the nozzles underwent a full test cycle (determination of flow characteristics, water spray quality) in accordance with the test program.
Electrophysical properties of mixtures of mineral oil and synthetic ester dielectric liquid
Authors: Lyutikova M. N. , Korobeynikov S. M. , Konovalov A. A.
Published: July 2021

Power transformers are key equipment in power generation, transmission, and distribution systems. The reliability of power transformers is based on the performance of the insulation system, which includes solid cellulose insulation and a liquid dielectric. Modern power engineering requires liquid insulation to have excellent insulating properties, high fire resistance, and biodegradability. Mineral oil that has been in use for over 100 years does not meet certain requirements. Therefore, various methods of enhancing the insulating properties of the oil are currently being considered, including mixing it with other liquid dielectrics, which have excellent properties. Synthetic and natural esters are considered as alternative fluids.This article discusses the possibility of enhancing the insulating characteristics of mineral oil with a high content of aromatic hydrocarbons (for example, T-750 oil) by mixing it with synthetic ester Midel 7131. Assessment is given of insulating parameters of the resulting mixtures with an ester fraction in mineral oil from 0% to fifty%. The main characteristics of the mixtures are described, such as density, kinematic viscosity, flash point, dielectric loss tangent, relative dielectric permittivity, breakdown voltage, and moisture content. It is shown that with an increase in the proportion of ester, some parameters of the obtained insulating liquid improve (flash point, dielectric constant, breakdown voltage), while values of other parameters (density, kinematic viscosity, dielectric loss tangent) with an ester content of more than 10% in the mixture do not meet the requirements for mineral oils.

Authors: Hagino Wataru , Shimano Satoshi
Published: July 2021

The present work deals with two members of the oribatid mite subgenus Galumna (Cosmogalumna) Aoki, 1988 from Japan. A new species, G. (C.) centroclathrata n. sp. is morphologically most similar to G. (C.) praeoccupata Subías, 2004 from China; however it differs from it by conspicuous granular ornamentation on the surface of the pteromorph, the shape of the polygonal sculpture on the notogaster, and a conspicuous linear sculpture on the middle part of the genital plates.
Galumna (Cosmogalumna) ornata Aoki, 1988, the type species of the subgenus, is additionally described based on the specimens from the type locality. The position of lamellar setae slightly anteriad to L lines and the presence of 10 pairs of minute notogastral setae should be considered in any future identification of G. (C.) ornata.

Authors: Bochkov Andre V.
Published: July 2021

Mites of the family Chirodiscidae (Acariformes: Sarcoptoidea) are permanent mono- or stenoxenous symbionts of mammals living in the fur of their hosts. Among three genera included in the tribe Schizocarpini (Labidocarpinae), members of the genus Lutrilichus Fain inhabit small carnivores of the families Mustelidae and Viverridae (Carnivora). The external morphology of postembrionic stages of Lutrilichus javanicus Fain, 1970 (Acariformes: Chirodiscidae), collected from Melogale moschata (Gray, 1831) (Mustelidae) in Vietnam, is described. This is the second report of this mite species, previously known from a single female specimen from Melogale orientalis Blanford, 1888 in Java, and the first description of the immature stages in the genus Lutrilichus.
Morphological observations of fluorescence in different tick species (Family: Ixodidae)
Authors: Shade Dakota A. , Oller Anna R. , Wilson Stephen W.
Published: July 2021

Ticks are important ectoparasites due to their ability to transmit harmful pathogens and their study is thus significant for medical and veterinary practices around the world. Fluorescence has been found in numerous biological organisms, including ticks. However, the overall function, evolutionary significance, and distribution of fluorescence in ticks are unknown. This study examined tick fluorescence in purchased, unfed adult Amblyomma americanum (Linnaeus), A. maculatum Koch, Dermacentor variabilis (Say), D. andersoni (Stiles), Ixodes scapularis Say, and Rhipicephalus sanguineus Latreille ticks. An Olympus SZX7 microscope and NightSea SFA system with ultraviolet (UV) and royal blue sets were used for observing tick morphology. Ticks were shown to have widespread fluorescence in all species observed. The results corroborated previous studies, but with the addition of more fluorescent structures. Tick fluorescence could potentially play roles in communication or predator avoidance. Studies on tick behavior in conjunction with fluorescence are now called for to elucidate potential roles.
Changes in a soil microarthropod community in the vicinity of dominant tree species under trampling management at the Safari Zoological Center, Israel
Authors: Liu Rentao , Meller Roy , Steinberger Yosef
Published: July 2021

Tree-canopy and trampling management are reported to influence soil arthropod abundance and diversity. However, there is limited understanding of their interactive effects on a soil microarthropod community at the Safari Zoological Center, central Israel. This study assessed the spatial influence of three dominant tree species (Cupressus sempervirens, Eucalyptus camaldulensis, and Tamarix aphylla) under contrasting trampling and enclosure treatment on soil microarthropod abundance and diversity during a wet Mediterranean winter. There was a significant interactive effect of tree species and trampling management on soil moisture, organic matter, pH, and soil density, with an individual effect of tree species or trampling management on soil electrical conductivity and water-holding capacity. There was a significantly greater abundance of total microarthropods under enclosure than under trampling in open spaces and beneath the E. camaldulensis canopy, with the greatest abundance found in the open spaces under enclosure. However, there were no significant differences in the average abundance of total microarthropods between trampling and enclosure beneath either the T. aphylla or C. sempervirens canopy. The soil Acari diversity indices (i.e., taxon richness, Shannon index, and evenness index) were significantly greater under enclosure than under trampling in open spaces and beneath tree-canopy habitats, with the exception of taxon richness beneath the C. sempervirens canopy. We concluded that the trampling activities had a detrimental effect on soil microarthropod abundance and soil Acari diversity in some cases only. The distinctive canopy architecture of some tree species (i.e., T. aphylla and C. sempervirens) has ecophysiological attributes which could mediate the effect of trampling on soil microarthropods.

Published: July 2021

The predator-prey system Phytoseiulus persimilis Athias-Henriot (Acari: Phytoseiidae) and Tetranychus urticae (Koch) (Acari: Tetranychidae) represents the most studied and the most known system among the Acari. Because of the agronomical importance of the two mite species, a wealth of modelling studies investigated the interactions of the two species at the individual level. However, regional or global level works on this system are lacking, which is impeding the investigation of climate change effects on biological control effectiveness. Here we compile and geo-locate worldwide occurrences for the two species considered, based on literature, collection and field survey data. The datasets presented in this document gather most of the literature records of both species for which locality data were available for geo-referencing (1,037 for T. urticae and 126 for P. persimilis). Geo-located data from collections and field surveys including host-plants are also presented for the first time (322 for T. urticae and 65 for P. persimilis). Phytoseiulus persimilis is also reported for the first time from Kenya and La Martinique.

Biology of Mononychelus planki (Acari: Tetranychidae) on Calopogonium mucunoides (Plantae: Fabaceae)
Authors: Da Cruz João Boavida , Massaro Marcela R. da Silva , Moraes Gilberto José de
Published: July 2021

The spider mite Mononychellus planki (McGregor) has been considered a threat to soybean in Brazil, where it is referred to as soybean-green-mite. It has been reported from several countries in the American continent and in the Caribbean, attacking 68 plant species of 12 families, but mostly Fabaceae and Malvaceae. Calopogonium mucunoides Desv. is a common plant of spontaneous occurrence in Brazil, where it is often attacked by M. planki. Both the mite and C. mucunoides seem to be of American origin. The objective of this work was to evaluate the importance of C. mucunoides as a host for M. planki. Duration of the immature phase (11.5 ± 0.9 – 11.9 ± 0.2 days) was comparable to values reported for the mite on soybean, but total fecundity (18.1 ± 0.5 – 18.7 ± 2.3 eggs) was much lower. Values of life table parameters (rm, R0 and λ) were relatively low, reflecting the reduced ability of M. planki to reach high numbers on this plant, possibly as a result of their co-evolution. Yet, the present study suggests the importance of C. mucunoides in maintaining M. planki population under natural conditions, in the absence of soybean, a plant introduced to the Americas.

Published: July 2021

The poultry red mite (PRM), Dermanyssus gallinae (De Geer, 1778) (Acari: Dermanyssidae), is a common and significant ectoparasite of the poultry industry worldwide. Although various biological, chemical, and physical methods have been attempted, an utterly successful control strategy has not been put forward yet. Our experimental investigations and observations revealed that the ant species Lasius alienus displays an effective predatory behavior on all biological stages of PRM. Our results also suggested that L. alienus is attracted by PRM-infested substrate at a distance. We concluded that predation by the ant on PRM is worth further investigation as it could possibly be an effective biological control strategy.

A new genus and a new species of macronyssid mites is described based on material collected from caves in Minas Gerais state, Southeastern Brazil, and additional occurrences from caves in Rio de Janeiro (Southeast) and Pará (Eastern Amazon region). The new genus may be distinguished from other Macronyssidae genera by the combination of sternal shield with a distinct X-shaped area; sternal shield bearing three pairs of setae and two pairs of pores; sternal gland absent; anterior spur on coxa II lacking; adults with dorsal shield entire and j and J series complete; adults and protonymphs with setae J5 minute; males with strong-pores on dorsal shield and peritrema short extending from posterior margin of coxae II to the anterior margin of coxae IV. A key for genera occurring in Brazil is provided, as well sequences from the mitochondrial large subunit of ribosome (16S).
Novel mutation in the COL11A1 gene causing Marshall-Stickler syndrome in three generations of a Bulgarian family
Authors: Mladenova M , Todorov T , Grozdanova L , Mitev V , Todorova A
Published: July 2021

Here we report the first familial case spread through at least three generations, genetically verified cases of Marshall-Stickler syndrome in Bulgaria. The proband, a 2-year-old girl, has craniofacial dysplasia, ocular hypertelorism, small saddle nose with a flat bridge and midface hypoplasia. The pedigree of the proband’s family showed that her father has the same clinical manifestations of the disease. In addition, her father presented with a tall, thin stature and mild hearing loss, manifested with aging. The same dysmorphological symptoms were presented by the paternal grandfather. Both patients, the 2-year-old girl and her father, have been diagnosed to carry Marshall-Stickler syndrome. The COL2A1 gene tested negative in the family. Based on the higher percentage of mutations in the COL2A1 gene, we analyzed this gene as the first target in the family. The COL2A1 gene tested negative, and we sequenced the gene further. A novel splice site mutation c.3474+1G>A was found in intron 44. This variant is related to the clinical presentation in the patient and her father. The c.3474+1G>A mutation results in altered splicing affects at the donor splice site of intron 44, which most probably gives a nonfunctional protein. The variant affects the major triple-helical domain that represents a mutation hot-spot for the gene.

Published: July 2021

Differentiated thyroid carcinomas (DTC) are the most common form of endocrine malignancies. The role of genetic variations in the development of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is approximately 60.0-70.0%. The X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) protein has an important role in DNA repair mechanisms and genomic polymorphisms of XRCC1 gene affect the function of the protein. In the present case-control study, we aimed to compare the genotype frequency distributions of XRCC1 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in terms of the presence of other risk factors (Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, smoking, obesity, radiation exposure) in patients with thyroid nodules who had fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) and/or thyroid surgery due to thyroid cancer. The genotype frequency distributions of three common XRCC1 SNPs (Arg194Trp, Arg399Gln, Arg280His) were compared to those with DTC (n = 228), benign thyroid nodules (BTN, n = 100) and healthy controls (n = 93) in terms of certain pre defined risk factors such as the presence of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, smoking, obesity, a family history of thyroid cancer and radiation exposure. The frequency of the GA genotype of Arg280His in DTC cases was found to be higher than in those with BTN and the healthy control group (p <0.001). The DTC group had the lowest frequency of AA genotype of Arg280His (35.5%, p <0.001). Among those with a family history of thyroid cancer, 78.9% had a GA genotype and 21.1% had the AA genotype of Arg280His (p = 0.004). The Arg280His GA genotype was more common in DTC than in cancer-free controls. The GA genotype frequency was also high in DTC cases with a family history of thyroid cancer.
Differences Between New Ifrs and Us Gaap Lease Standards and their Effects on Publicly Listed Companies
Authors: Winiarska Karolina
Published: July 2021

Leases are quite relevant to a large number of enterprises. Due to the fact that a lease reduces an entity’s exposure to risks inherent in asset ownership, it is a widely used method of obtaining access to property, plant and equipment. At the beginning of this article sources of existence of various international accounting standards as well as primary incentives (estimation of unrecognized lease obligations) to change the previous widespread lease standards used by publicly listed companies are mentioned. The IASB and FASB aware of the importance of this issue, put forward new similar accounting solutions. Despite the joint effort, there are some discrepancies between promulgated IFRS 16 and ASC 842. In the article they are divided into three groups of differences (basic, accounting and other lease issues). The main objective of this article is to point out those differences between new lease standards, as well as their distinct effects on the reporting entities’ financial statements and crucial financial metrics. In particular, the impact of operating lease capitalization on the Warsaw Stock Exchange entities’ assets by sector indices, as well as on EBITDA by industries on the global scale are presented. The article involves research methods such as: analysis of literature, global accounting regulations and financial statements, as well as comparison and deduction methods. The new lease standards have significant impact on those reporting entities with a great number of previous off balance sheet leases. Therefore, Polish sectors such as WIG-ODZIEZ, WIG-TELKOM and WIG-MOTO as well as global industries such as retail, airline and health care are the most affected. This paper may be useful for many users of financial statements (e.g. potential investors), because it provides information about effects of changed lease standards on financial position and performance of the most affected reporting entities.
Value of branded education
Authors: Krabec Tomas , Čižinská Romana
Published: July 2021

The objective of the paper is to examine value creation in private higher education. The results of the research are to be applied in reasonable structuring of study programs and courses and for creating profitable business and marketing strategies for private universities. From a student perspective, higher education is a project that must generate a positive net present value. In the pre-investment and investment phases, students see cash outflows and opportunity costs. In the third phase, the project generates benefits that take the form of cash inflows from employment or doing business in the relevant field. The value of the study program from the perspective of a private university is produced by the present value of the future cash flows generated by the investment in the study program and its administration and operation. The main cash inflows are created by tuition revenues and the main cash outflows are brand-related investments and personnel costs. The market equilibrium occurs when the value of a degree program from the perspective of a private university corresponds to the total aggregate net present value of a degree program at a private university from a student perspective.
