Can phosphorous acid be used to control Neonectria ditissima in New Zealand grown apples?
Authors: Smith Jason , Walter Monika , Campbell Rebecca E. , Turner Lauren
Published: August 2019

European canker, Neonectria ditissima, is a worldwide apple tree disease killing shoots, branches and trees, and treatment with phosphorous acid is a possible control option. The effect of six postharvest phosphorous acid (PA) treatments on fruit residues the following season was studied in Tasman on two trial sites growing ‘Scifresh’ or ‘Scilate’ apple trees. Spray treatments consisted of number (0–3) and timing (early, mid and/or late) of PA applications. Additionally, leaf-scar wounds were artificially inoculated with N. ditissima spores at the ‘Scilate’ site on 1 and 8 June 2017 to determine disease control. Symptom expression was checked regularly between October 2017 and February 2018. None of the treatments caused a statistically significant reduction in the incidence of canker development compared with the control. Two or more PA applications resulted in PA residues in fruit, at harvest, the following season. Higher PA residues were found in fruit following early applications than with late applications. More applications of PA resulted in higher residues. This finding has important implications for exporting fruit to markets that have no tolerance for PA residues.

This study examined incubation period, lesion length and conidial release in Neonectria ditissima (European canker) in four New Zealand regions in relation to climatic factors. Incubation period was studied on potted ‘Royal Gala’ trees inoculated with N. ditissima. One week after inoculation, symptomless trees were dispatched to Waikato, Hawke’s Bay, Tasman, Otago and positive controls remained in a glasshouse. Conidial release was studied in trees with lesions that were dispatched to the same regions. Rain traps were placed under each lesion and conidia quantified after each rain event. Disease progress and conidial production were examined in relation to weather. Lesions developed significantly slower in Otago and faster in Waikato and the glasshouse, compared with Tasman and Hawke’s Bay. Symptom development accelerated with increasing daily hours of 11–16°C and humidity (74.6–87.2% RH). The highest conidium counts occurred in Waikato and the lowest in Otago, while conidial production started earlier in Tasman than elsewhere. Temperature is the main driver for symptom development during the incubation period and rainfall is not required. Rainfall frequency drives conidial production.

Published: August 2019

European canker (EC), caused by Neonectria ditissima, is an important disease in apple-producing regions in New Zealand. In order to improve plant protection, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) can be used to map plant disease location and severity in agricultural settings. Data were compiled from apple growers in Tasman, New Zealand, to investigate EC distribution over 4 years, for the period 2015–2018. ArcGIS software, including the Spatial Analyst, Interpolation and Geospatial statistics toolboxes, was used to map EC incidence at the spatial scale of orchard blocks, which allowed the identification of disease hot-spots. A clustered spatial pattern of disease was detected every year and areas with higher risk of EC were identified within the region. The spatial patterns detected were related to disease pressure over time for different apple cultivars. The use of GIS provides a platform for analysing and visually communicating disease patterns over time. Investigating disease spatial pattern allows the inference of spatial processes and further hypothesis generation to understand the pathogen.
Development of heat treatments for two species of Samoan fruit flies (Bactrocera spp., Diptera: Tephritidae)
Authors: Tunupopo Fa'alelei , Sa'ili Fai'ilagi , Jamieson Lisa E. , Brown Samuel D.J.
Published: August 2019

Of the seven species of Bactrocera fruit flies found in Samoa, only two (B. kirki (Froggatt) and B. xanthodes (Broun)) are of economic importance. These species attack a range of fruit, including papaya (Carica papaya), breadfruit (Artocarpus altilis), eggplants (Solanum melongena) and citrus. The presence of these two species limits export market access for Samoan produce. Eggplants and breadfruit infested with the eggs of B. kirki and B. xanthodes, respectively, were treated using a high-temperature forced-air (HTFA) protocol to heat the fruits to core temperatures of 40oC, 42oC, 44oC or 46oC. No B. xanthodes pupae emerged from fruit treated at 42oC or greater. Pupae of B. kirki were found from fruit treated at temperatures up to 44oC, but failed to survive treatments at 46oC. The HTFA protocol previously approved for treatment of other Pacific fruit flies (fruit core temperature to 47.2oC for 20 min) works without modification for treatment of the two combinations of fruit flies and commodities tested. However, less intense HTFA treatments are worth investigating, if required to enhance fruit quality.
The impact of cutting prior to goat grazing on variegated thistle (Silybum marianum)
Authors: Greenfield Rose , Tozer Katherine , Zobel Gosia , Cameron Catherine , North Elizabeth
Published: August 2019

Variegated thistle (Silybum marianum) is a prevalent weed on the East Coast of the North Island of New Zealand. Goats may provide a novel management tool to control thistles, but little is known about how cutting thistles prior to grazing affects thistle consumption by goats. This study investigated the extent to which goats consume either uncut entire variegated thistle plants or cut thistles. Eight groups of three goats were presented with thistle vegetation in each of two replicate 1-hour feeding sessions on 2 consecutive days. Averaged over both days, in the cut treatment, goats consumed 99% of the leaves that had been removed from the thistles and reduced the ground cover of the thistle plants by 68%. In the uncut treatment, ground cover of the thistles was reduced by 46%. A combination of cutting and goat grazing is likely to be a useful tool for stopping variegated thistle debris from smothering pasture and for inhibiting seed setting. Further work is required to test this at paddock scale.
Parasitism of diamondback moth Plutella xylostella by the solitary parasitoid wasp Cotesia vestalis in Samoa
Authors: Siasau Hau’ofa , Kant Rashmi
Published: August 2019

Plutella xylostella is a major pest of crucifier crops in Samoa and other Pacific islands. This pest has developed resistance to most insecticides available in the island nations so the objective of this study was to examine potential biological control options for P. xylostella in Samoa. Existing parasitism of P. xylostella on Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa subspp.) was investigated at a farm in Alesia and at the USP farm in Alafua, and established populations of Cotesia vestalis were found at both locations. Plutella xylostella larvae turn light yellow and show sluggish behaviour after parasitism, and they could be easily differentiated from unparasitised ones. Developing C. vestalis larvae emerge from their hosts and spin white cocoon around their body. After 5–6 days, a single adult emerges from the C. vestalis cocoon. The average parasitism rate between April 2015 and March 2016 was 10–18% but was significantly higher at the USP farm than the Alesia farm. This result could be because no insecticides were applied to the crops at USP. Parasitism was highest between June and August when the lowest average daily temperatures occur.
Arthropod pests of kiwifruit identified from Chinese language literature
Authors: Xu Bingqin , Teulon David A.J.
Published: August 2019

References to many other kiwifruit arthropod pests (and diseases) were found as part of a process of searching Chinese language literature to understand the impact of brown marmorated stink bug (Halyomorpha halys; BMSB) and spotted lantern fly (Lycorma delicatula; SLF) on kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis) and A. deliciosa in China. Information on other kiwifruit pests was collated from over 20 Chinese language publications found in searches of the Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure platform using standard Chinese characters for BMSB, SLF and kiwifruit, and was ranked according to: (1) the number of publications they were mentioned in; and (2) the type of words used to describe their impact. In addition to BMSB and SLF, approximately 50 kiwifruit pests were identified from this process, including a number of species that were unknown to the New Zealand kiwifruit biosecurity community and which may pose a threat to kiwifruit production if they established in New Zealand. This work reinforces the need for searching Chinese databases with Chinese characters in combination with searches in international databases, to ensure comprehensive coverage for biosecurity risk assessment.

Fruit flies (Family Tephritidae), in particular the Queensland fruit fly (Bactrocera tryoni; QFF), areone of the biggest biosecurity risks for New Zealand horticulture. New Zealand has one of the bestscience-based biosecurity systems in the world, based on years of experience and sound research. Theintroduction of fruit flies to New Zealand is now well managed in commercial fruit imports, but the riskis rising from growing trade and travel and, in the case of QFF, climatic adaptation and spread to moresouthern localities. Smarter solutions are continually needed to manage this increasing risk, and to dealwith such pests when they arrive. We present a brief summary of current and anticipated research aimedat reducing the likelihood of entry into New Zealand and/or minimising the impact for the fruit flyspecies of greatest threat to New Zealand. Research spans risk assessment, pathway risk management,diagnostics, surveillance and eradication.
An insight into biosecurity plant-disease diagnostics at MPI

Published: August 2019

The Mycology and Bacteriology team of the Ministry for Primary Industries’ Plant Health and Environment Laboratory is responsible for the identification and verification of all suspected exotic, new, and emerging pathogens affecting plants and the environment in New Zealand. We work in an applied diagnostic environment where results can have significant implications for biosecurity. Sample submissions often result in detection of new to New Zealand fungi and bacteria on plants for which information on fungal and bacterial associations is generally sparse. The complexity of testing required is quite varied with samples being submitted from post entry quarantine (looking for a known pathogen using specific tests), border or surveillance (unknown pathogens requiring multiple tests), or a biosecurity response (scaling up to test large numbers, identification resolution required to strain level). Applied test methods depend largely on the sample type and consist of morphological identification, biochemical testing, pathogenicity testing, serological and molecular techniques, including high throughput sequencing. A profile of our diagnostic work and the most commonly detected taxa and host associations are presented.

Breadfruit from Samoa potentially host the Pacific fruit fly (Bactrocera xanthodes) and so their export to New Zealand requires a disinfestation treatment. Heat treatments by air (HAT) or water (HWT) are common fruit-fly disinfestation treatments for tropical crops. Two breadfruit cultivars – Puou and Ma’afala – were subjected to three heat treatments, HAT-1 (minimum 47.2oC for 20 min at core), HAT-2 (49.0oC for 100 min at core) and HWT (47.2oC for 20 min at core), and an untreated control was also included. Fruit were stored for one week at 15oC followed by three days at 25oC. Disorders observed were heat damage to the skin (blackening) and increased decay on the body and stem-end. Heat damage was at an acceptably low level following HAT-1 but was unacceptable following HAT-2 or HWT. Initial results suggest that a HAT can be tolerated, but the effect of ramp rate and the potential of using a two-step HWT system should be examined.

ABSTRACT This study aims to discuss the information system of import duty that focuses on the procedure of receipt of import duties, potential threats to each process and internal control that has been carried out. This study uses a case study at the Ngurah Rai Customs and Excise Supervision Office, whose main activity is providing services and supervision on the importation of goods. This research was conducted with descriptive qualitative methods carried out from April to July 2016. Import duty and tax cycle in the context of imports of imported goods that enter through cargo at the Ngurah Rai Customs and Excise Supervision Office start from the import notification of goods, payment and repayment of customs obligations to the general state cash account, the process of issuing goods, and reporting income. The Ngurah Rai Customs and Excise Supervision and Service Office, in general, has implemented an internal control system properly, but there are still some weaknesses from the implementation of internal controls at the Ngurah Rai Customs and Excise Service Office. This study suggests that the Directorate General of Customs and Excise need to develop alternative methods as an anticipatory step if there is interference with the Indonesia National Single Window. Also, the Ngurah Rai Customs and Excise Supervision Service Office needs to develop alternative methods as an anticipatory step if the Service User Portal and the Service Computer System experience interference. Keywords; import duty, state revenue information system, state revenue module ABSTRAK Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membahas sistem informasi penerimaan bea masuk yang berfokus kepada prosedur penerimaan bea masuk, potensi ancaman pada setiap proses, dan pengendalian internal yang telah dilakukan.

Penetapan tarif kepabeanan adalah pemeriksaan administrasi kepabeanan untuk menentukan klasifikasi barang guna perhitungan bea masuk yang dilakukan oleh Pejabat Fungsional Pemeriksa Dokumen (PFPD) dalam jangka waktu 30 (tiga puluh) hari sejak diajukannya Pemberitahuan Impor Barang (PIB) secara self assesment. Penetapan tarif yang benar adalah penetapan yang tepat sesuai Buku Tarif Kepabeanan Indonesia (BTKI), tidak melanggar aturan larangan dan pembatasan serta tidak menciptakan peluang korupsi. Penetapan tarif kepabeanan yang tidak benar menciptakan risiko kegagalan. Untuk menghindari kegagalan perlu dilakukan identifikasi risiko. Identifikasi risiko yang baik dapat memitigasi risiko untuk diantisipasi serta diminimalkan melalui kegiatan pengendalian risiko. Kantor Pelayanan Utama Bea dan Cukai Tanjung Priok membuat identifikasi risiko terkait penetapan tarif kepabeanan. Penelitian dilakukan untuk mengetahui apakah proses identifikasi risiko telah dilakukan dengan benar, karena identifikasi risiko adalah langkah awal,dalam antisipasi dan meminimalisasi risiko : fiskal, kebijakan, kepatuhan, fraud, legal, operasional dan  reputasi serta upaya penyalahgunaan kewenangan untuk mencegah korupsi. Penelitian ini berbentuk deskriptif studi kasus terhadap penyusunan identifikasi risiko pada Kantor Pelayanan Utama Bea dan Cukai Tanjung Priok tahun 2019. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penyusunan identifikasi risiko pada  Kantor Pelayanan Utama Bea dan Cukai Tanjung Priok belum mengakomodir risiko yang komprehensif untuk mencapai sasaran strategis organisasi dan mencegah korupsi.

Sektor kepabeanan merupakan salah satu unsur yang termasuk dalam penyumbang pendapatan negara terbesar. Pemenuhan kewajiban kepabeanan dilakukan secara self-assessment. Penerapan sistem self-assessment ini memungkinkan terjadinya ketidaksesuaian dalam memberitahukan jumlah, jenis, dan asal barang. Dalam Rangka Impor. informasi yang diperoleh oleh PPD  hanya sebatas yang dituangkan PIB dan dokumen pelengkapnya. Namun, yang menjadi masalah adalah ketika barang yang diimpor memiliki jenis yang sangat beragam dan jumlah yang sangat banyak, maka dibutuhkan waktu yang lebih lama pula dalam melaksanakan pemeriksaan dokumennya. Direktorat Teknis Kepabeanan membuat Database Nilai Pabean sebagai alat bantu bagi PPD dalam melakukan pengujian kewajaran. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pelaksanaan atas Penyusunan, Pemutakhiran, dan Pendistribusian Database Nilai Pabean I (DBNP I).Penelitian ini menggunakan paradigm konstruktivis, pendekatan kualitatif dengan sifat deskriptif dan strategi studi kasus.

LOGIC THRESHOLD FOR MICRORING RESONATOR-BASED BDD CIRCUITS: PHYSICAL AND OPERATIONAL ANALYSES
Authors: YAKAR Ozan , ERCAN İlke
Published: August 2019

Moore’s Law has been the fuel of expansive innovation in computing. The chip industry kept the Moore’s law extant for almost four decades. However, the halt of the rapid progress of the silicon technology is incipient by reason of the physical limitations. Emerging computing proposals suggest several alternatives to current computing paradigms and technologybases. The photonic circuitry is one of the most promising candidates with its high operation speed, energy efficient passive components, low crosstalk and appropriateness for parallel computation. Among various approaches to photonic logic, microring resonator-based Binary-Decision Diagram (BDD) architectures have a special place due to their small circuit footprint. However, the physical limitations imposed on their logic implementation has not been studied in depth to enable design of efficient circuits. In this paper, we study the physical structure and operational details of a microring resonatorbased Half-Adder (HA) circuit and outline the conditions under which the performance and accuracy of information processing is compromised due to its physical characteristics. Our analyses significantly contribute to determining key physical features and operations concerning logic implementation of microring resonator based BDD HA, which informs the future design and operational optimization of the microring resonator-based BDD logic circuits.

Published: August 2019

The main aim of this study is to investigate the behaviour of hybrid FRP-concrete decks. The hybrid FRP-concrete bridge systems consisting of different FRP cell units available on the market such as trapezoidal, triangular, honeycomb, rectangular with alternating diagonal, half-depth trapezoidal, hexagonal and arch cell units were computationally compared and examined using the finite element (FE) analysis to decide the most appropriate FRP composite deck for bridge systems. Design criteria such as the deflections were considered in selecting the most effective unit system. Different FRP bridge deck panels were analysed under static loading representing the standard European truck wheel. The finite element analysis of bridge deck systems was performed using a general purpose finite element analysis package ABAQUS, and the behaviour of these systems was then be compared in terms of stiffness and strength criteria.The results showed that Delta, Super and ASSET hybrid decks are stiffer than other deck systems. The results from FEA approach also indicated that the layer of concrete on the top surface of bridge deck reduces the vertical displacement of FRP bridge systems approximately 60%.

Published: August 2019

Cyberbullying has become a major problem along with the increase of communication technologies and social media become part of daily life. Cyberbullying is the use of communication tools to harass or harm a person or group. Especially for the adolescent age group, cyberbullying causes damage that is thought to be suicidal and poses a great risk. In this study, a model is developed to identify the cyberbullying actions that took place in social networks. The model investigates the effects of some text mining methods such as pre-processing, feature extraction, feature selection and classification on automatic detection of cyberbullying using datasets obtained from Formspring.me, Myspace and YouTube social network platforms. Different classifiers (i.e. multilayer perceptron (MLP), stochastic gradient descent (SGD), logistic regression and radial basis function) have been developed and the effects of feature selection algorithms (i.e. Chi2, support vector machine-recursive feature elimination (SVM-RFE), minimum redundancy maximum relevance and ReliefF) for cyberbullying detection have also been investigated. The experimental results of the study proved that SGD and MLP classifiers with 500 selected features using SVM-RFE algorithm showed the best results (F_measure value is more than 0.930) by means of classification time and accuracy.
BEHAVIOR OF R/C FRAMES WITH CONCRETE PLATE BONDED INFILLS
Authors: BARAN Mehmet
Published: August 2019

A practical, economic and effective as well as occupant friendly seismic strengthening technique had been developed for reinforced concrete (RC) framed buildings lacking sufficient lateral stiffness. In this technique, high strength concrete plates are bonded onto the existing plastered hollow brick infill walls using a thin layer of epoxy mortar in order that infill walls are converted into lateral load resisting shear walls resulting from the composite action of infill wall with the plates bonded onto it. By this way, the building gains sufficient lateral stiffness. To analyze the behavior of RC frames strengthened by the aforementioned technique, results of eight one-third scale, one-bay, one or two storey deficient RC frames tested under reverse-cyclic lateral loading until failure are given in detail. Three different types of plates were used to strengthen the frames. Test results showed that the proposed strengthening technique considerably increased the lateral load capacities as well as the initial stiffness and energy dissipation capacities of the strengthened specimens, for both types of frames. Additionally, present study focuses on the comparison results of one-storey specimens with those of equivalent two-storey specimens to well-understand the behavior of such strengthened frames under lateral load, and infill walls under compressive and shear forces as well as tensile forces.

A network of olfactory receptors is differentially expressed in CD24+ CD73+ Vγ2+ γδ-T cells
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: August 2019

To evaluate the transcriptional consequences of differential Vγ chain usage in γδ-T cells, I used a publicly available dataset to compare the global gene expression profiles of immature, committed CD24+ CD73+ γδ-T cells bearing either Vγ1.1+ or Vγ2+ at the γδTCR. I found that thirty-nine genes encoding olfactory receptors were among the most differentially expressed in Vγ2+ CD24+ CD73+ cells. Four vomeronasal receptors (proteins involved in pheromone detection) were also transcriptionally up-regulated in Vγ2+ CD24+ CD73+ cells compared to their Vγ1.1+ counterparts. Analysis of two further datasets revealed two other olfactory genes that were differentially expressed in γδ-T cells, in these cases not based on Vγ chain usage but in a stage-selective pattern. To my knowledge this is the first report documenting the differential expression of genes encoding olfactory receptors during γδ-T development and based on Vγ chain usage.

Overview of Quality of Life of Older Lesbians and Trans Women in India
Authors: A Mani
Published: August 2019

It is well-known that lesbians, trans and queer women face considerable discrimination, exclusion, stigmatization, and abuse in India. That is over and above the misogyny and discrimination faced by women in the patriarchal country. LGBTQIA people were also criminalized by law till recently. In spite of all the oppression and discrimination, lesbians and trans women have always existed in the country. A number of small sample studies with limited focus have been conducted by academic bodies, NGOs, and few state transgender boards over the past few years. Some of these studies provide direct or indirect insight into the quality of life of older trans women and lesbians (QOLO). In this research, these studies are reviewed in detail from a QOLO perspective, and a number of critical conclusions are arrived at by the present author. Further, an enhanced version of QOL (and QOLO) for lesbians is also proposed by her. It is hoped that this research would be useful for motivating interdisciplinary work in a relatively neglected area.
Suicide Attempters Showed More Anger than Non-attempters When Advising on a Hypothetical Life Dilemma
Authors: Hu Chao S. , Huang Hark
Published: August 2019

Objective: to explore wisdom and emotion as suicide attempters advised on a life dilemma. Method: a study was conducted with 130 adults, of whom 36 indicated a previous suicide attempt. In addition to advising a hypothetical protagonist of a friend’s betrayal, participants also completed scales of suicide risk, meaning of life, collectivism and individualism. Three well-trained raters rated their transcribed advice on wise reasoning; moreover, their micro-facial expression during advice-giving was analyzed by software Facereader7.1. Results: suicide attempters had significantly lower meaning of life, lower horizontal collectivism, and higher horizontal individualism than non-attempters. There was no significant difference in wise reasoning; nevertheless, the suicide attempters showed significantly more anger during advising than non-attempters. Moreover, a Support Vector Machine trained on the participants’ micro-facial expression during advice-giving predicted suicide attempt with an accuracy above chance, i.e., 72%. Conclusion: the lack of meaning in life is a potential cause of suicide. Horizontal collectivism, rather than vertical collectivism, is a buffer against suicide. Suicide attempters showed more anger than non-attempters when advising on a life dilemma. Therefore, the wisdom advising task may help to predict and therefore prevent suicide based on the participants’ authentic emotional reaction, instead of their verbal responses.
A short enquiry into the origins and uses of the term “neogeography” [Draft]

Let me first state at the outset that I am not a lexicographer or etymologist, a GIS specialist, or even very much of a practical neogeographer. This paper was written in a weekend, simply out of intellectual curiosity and the need to prepare for a PhD application interview. So please forgive any errors that I might make here.
PNP what is in a name july 25-1 2019.pdf 10.31224/osf.io/2739d
Authors: Eisenberg Robert
Published: August 2019

The name PNP was introduced by Eisenberg and Chen because it has important physical meaning beyond being the first letters of Poisson-Nernst-Planck. PNP also means Positive-Negative-Positive, the signs of majority current carriers in different regions of a PNP bipolar transistor. PNP transistors are two diodes in series PN + NP that rectify by changing the shape of the electric field. Transistors can function as quite different types of nonlinear devices by changing the shape of the electric field. Those realities motivated Eisenberg and Chen to introduce the name PNP.The pun “PNP = Poisson-Nernst-Planck = Positive-Negative-Positive” has physical content. It suggests that Poisson-Nernst-Planck systems like open ionic channels should not be assumed to have constant electric fields. The electric field should be studied and computed because its change of shape is likely to be important in the function of biological systems, as it is in semiconductor systems.
