Effect of Transplanting Date and Harvest Method on Growth and Survival of Three Urban Tree Species in an Arid Climate
Authors: Etemadi Nematollah , Mohammadi Nezhad Rezvan , Zamani Najmeh , Mahdi Majid Mohammad
Published: September 2021

The major challenges for transplanting trees in arid regions compared to temperate regions are higher mortality and slower rate of establishment. As such, date and method of transplanting can potentially improve survival and establishment as well as subsequent landscape performance of transplanted trees in arid climate. In the present study, three urban species commonly used in the Isfahan, Iran, landscape including eldarica pine (Pinus eldarica Medw.), white mulberry (Morus alba L.), and smoothleaf elm (Ulmus carpinifolia Gled.), were transplanted from January to June 2010, when mean air temperature was less than 10°C (early winter), between 10°C and 20°C (early spring), or more than 20°C (late spring). Half of the trees were bare root (BR) and half balled and burlapped (B&B). White mulberry and smoothleaf elm trees transplanted early in winter had the highest survival percentage over two years. The best survival for eldarica pine was observed in early spring transplanted trees. For all species, survival rate and trunk diameter increase of B&B trees were significantly greater than BR trees during the first year. Also, the first year’s shoot growth and shoot number of pine trees, and dieback on elm trees, were significantly affected by transplanting method. During the second year, tree growth and survival for all species were similar for B&B and BR trees. Annual shoot growth of eldarica pine and smoothleaf elm trees, but not white mulberry, equaled to nontransplanted trees by the end of third year after transplanting, suggesting a species-specific response for post-transplant establishment in arid climate.
Mechanical Properties of Green Wood and Their Relevance for Tree Risk Assessment
Authors: Christof Spatz Hanns , Pfisterer Jochen
Published: September 2021

In a biological context, the mechanical properties as elasticity and strength of green wood, particularly as measured in the axial direction, influence the stability of trees against static loads (e.g., snow, ice, rain) and dynamic loads (i.e., wind). Extensive collections of data on mechanical properties are listed in three different catalogs edited in Canada, Great Britain, and the United States. A statistical analysis shows that the density of the wood is a major predictor for the mechanical properties as measured in axial direction. In this respect, conifers from temperate zones and deciduous trees both from temperate and tropical zones do not differ significantly from each other. A common, nearly linear relation between the modulus of elasticity and the density at 50% moisture content is found. Relationships between strengths in bending, compression, and shear and green wood density have ordinary least squares scaling exponents around 1.2, but can almost equally well be approximated by linear functions of wood density. Therefore, if the density of stem wood of a given tree is known from direct measurement and differs from the tabulated value, the values tabulated for mechanical properties can be corrected for by a simple rule of proportion. Pulling tests as tools for tree control are discussed with emphasis on how the method is based on the knowledge of the mechanical properties of green wood, and how wood density is measured.
Effects of Dinotefuran and Imidacloprid on Target and Non-target Arthropods on American Elm
Authors: Szczepaniec Adrianna , Raupp Brian , Raupp Michael
Published: September 2021

Neonicotinoid insecticides are a relatively new class of compounds with excellent efficacy against a broad assemblage of key insect pests of woody plants. Unfortunately, the use of one neonicotinoid, imidacloprid, has been linked to secondary outbreaks of several species of spider mites on different trees and shrubs. Dinotefuran is another neonicotinoid insecticide now widely used by arborists to manage insects, including egregious borers like emerald ash borer. Researchers tested a hypothesis that applications of dinotefuran to American elms (Ulmus americana) elevated populations of a spider mite, Tetranychus schoenei, and rust mites in the family Diptilomiopidae, and found no indication that dinotefuran elevated densities of either mite. Applications of imidacloprid elevated densities of T. schoenei, but not Diptilomiopidae. Both neonicotinoids were highly efficacious in reducing abundances of European elm scale, Eriococcus spuria, and elm cockscomb gall aphid, Colopha ulmicola.

Published: September 2021

Evapotranspirational cooling from urban trees is an effective way of reducing the urban heat island. However, the appropriate planting design to maximize the cooling benefit of street trees has not been widely examined. The current study investigated the growth and physiology of a commonly planted urban tree, Pyrus calleryana, in Manchester, UK. Trees were planted in April 2010 using three standard planting techniques: in a small open pit, and in small or large closed pits with non-compacted load-bearing soils and sealed with permeable paving slabs. The growth rate, leaf area index, and stomatal conductance were monitored over the next three growing seasons, together with chlorophyll analysis and fluorescence and leaf water potential, allowing researchers to determine tree health, water status, and evapotranspirational cooling. Trees in the open pits grew twice as fast as those in small covered pits and 1.5 times as fast as trees in large covered pits. Having significantly higher canopy density, canopy spread, and stomatal conductivity, the trees in the open pits provided up to 1 kW of cooling, compared to around 350 and 650 W by the small and large covered pits, respectively. Phenological observations, chlorophyll fluorescence, total chlorophyll, and foliar nutrient content confirmed that the trees in open pits were healthier. However, the leaf water potential of trees in the covered pits was less negative, showing that they were not suffering from water stress. Instead, limited aeration probably affected their root respiration and nutrient uptake, impairing their growth and physiological performance.
Tree Health in Phoenix, Arizona, U.S.
Authors: Martin Chris , Stutz Jean
Published: September 2021

Two studies of tree diversity, visual health, and mortality in the Phoenix, Arizona, U.S. metropolitan basin were conducted as part of the Central Arizona Long-Term Ecological Research project. For one study, tree diversity, mortality, and visual health were determined in 2010 at 204 sites, encompassing both the Phoenix metropolitan basin and in the surrounding Sonoran Desert. In another study, records of tree visual health and mortality were taken during the winter months (2003–2007) at 65 non-residential sites across an urban to rural gradient. Average tree mortality rates were 4.2% per annum. Crown condition was rated as very good or good for the majority of trees. Poor pruning practices and abiotic injuries, such as trunk sunscald, were observed on 70% and 23%, respectively, of trees in non-residential areas. Disease and pest problems were detected in 41% of urban trees, including wood decay, Verticillium wilt, sooty canker, and ash decline. Based on these data, researchers suggest that urban forest health in Phoenix is being negatively impacted by extensive wounding of trees, particularly in non-residential settings, possibly caused by excessive crown manipulation through pruning.
Fertilizer Rate and Number of Applications Impact Growth of Trees in Field Soil
Authors: Gilman Edward , Marshall Michael
Published: September 2021

Fertilizer recommendations for producing shade trees in nursery field soil in North America appear to be based on tradition and tree performance; there is little empirical data. This study was designed to examine efficacy of reducing traditional or historical fertilizer amount (rate) and number of applications for two taxa and to present a protocol for growers to test fertilizer use efficiency. A traditional rate of fertilizer was applied along with four others: zero, one-third, two-thirds, or one-and-one-third traditional. Fertilizer was divided into one, two, three (traditional), or four equal amounts applied during the growing season. The study was conducted on a fine sand field soil with 680 trees of each taxa in adjacent plots of the same field. There were 16 factorial treatment combinations plus a non-fertilized control. Fertilizer rate cut to one-third of the historical rate, and number of applications reduced from three to either one or two, resulted in little if any reduction in trunk diameter or height growth over the four-year period. These taxa appeared to grow almost regardless of nitrogen application strategy. Growers can partner with a research team to find an efficient fertilizer rate and number of applications that could cut production costs.
The Effects of Residential Street Tree Spacing and Crown Interactions on Crown Dimensions and Canopy Cover
Authors: Aryal Bimal , Steenberg James , Duinker Peter
Published: September 2021

Urban trees provide people with a range of ecosystem services. Trees planted along streets have been a large focus of urban forest research and practice, and municipalities invest significant resources in their survival. However, the optimal spacing of street trees is not addressed in the scientific literature, and existing municipal street tree spacing standards are highly variable and poorly enforced. In this study, we examine variability in crown shape and size for street trees to test for possible interaction effects at closer spacings. We measured variability in crown diameters both parallel and perpendicular to street tree rows to test whether changes in crown dimensions can be explained by interaction effects with neighbouring trees, and whether crown interactions lead to a reduction in total crown projection area (i.e., canopy cover). We measured the crown dimensions and diameter at breast height of 1,338 street trees in Halifax, Canada. We used two-way analysis of variance to test whether crown shape and crown projection area were affected by crown interactions and spacing. We found that the effect of narrower spacing and interactions (i.e., crowns touching/overlapping) among trees translated to crowns extending away from the direction of interaction. We also found that these changing crown dimensions were associated with increases in canopy cover. Urban forest ecosystems are a vital resource for the increasingly urban population. There is a need for empirical research on spacing standards and practices that investigate their influence on the supply of ecosystem services, such as stormwater retention, air pollution removal, and cooling.

Published: September 2021

Os topônimos podem revelar aspectos da cultura e da sociedade de uma localidade. Mediante isto, juntamente ao interesse em desvendar curiosidades acerca da nomeação das ruas de Marechal Cândido Rondon, município da região oeste do Paraná, objetivamos investigar acontecimentos e fatos que possam ter contribuído para a escolha dos historiotopônimos das ruas da cidade constituídas por datas, além de interpretar suas enunciações, que expressam preferência às datas selecionadas. Para isto, empregamos a abordagem qualitativa e as metodologias bibliográfica e documental, uma vez que realizamos revisão de literatura com pressupostos teóricos da Toponomástica (DICK, 1992; ISQUERDO, 1997; SEIDE, 2010; BRANDÃO ABBADE, 2016), e da Semântica do Acontecimento (GUIMARÃES, 2002), a investigação e listagem dos historiotopônimos, bem como a coleta de informações históricas sobre a formação do município. Utilizamos um corpus formado por 14 historiotopônimos, dos quais 7 rememoram acontecimentos e comemorações nacionais, 4 estão vinculados a fatos e personalidades importantes da localidade, enquanto 3 não foram relacionados a nenhum acontecimento. Constatamos que a enunciação dos historiotopônimos nacionais está vinculada ao interesse em afirmar o município como pertencente à nação, enquanto os historiotopônimos relacionados a personalidades da história do município tinham a intenção de contribuir para caracterizá-lo como uma cidade alemã.The occurrence of historiotoponyms in Marechal Cândido Rondon's streetsAbstractToponyms can reveal cultural and social aspects from a certain place. Upon this and alongside with the interest of unveiling curiosities about the naming of Marechal Cândido Rondon’s streets, a city located in the Paraná’s west, we aimed to investigate events and facts that may have contributed to the process of choosing the city streets’ historioponyms constituted by dates, besides interpreting the enunciations in them, which express preference to the chosen dates. Applying qualitative approach, bibliographic and documentary methodologies, we reviewed theorical assumptions from Toponomastic studies (DICK, 1992; ISQUERDO, 1997; SEIDE, 2010; BRANDÃO ABBADE, 2016) and from Semântica do Acontecimento (GUIMARÃES, 2002), investigated historiotoponyms and collected data from historic informations related to the constitution of the city. From the 14 historiotoponyms identified, 7 recall national events and commemorations, 4 are related to local important facts and personalities, while 3 of them were not related to any event. Based on that, we were able to state that the enunciation of the national hystoriotoponyms is linked to the interest of alleging that the city belongs to the brazilian nation, while historioroponyms linked to important personalities in the history of the city aim to contribute to characterizing the city as a German city.Key-words: Toponomastic, Historiotoponyms, Semântica do Acontecimento.

Fokus kajian adalah berkenaan fungsi tuala wanita yang dicipta oleh Lakshmi sebagai mekanisme inovasi sosial di kalangan wanita dan masyarakat pedalaman di India dalam filem PadMan (2018). Penciptaan tuala wanita oleh Lakshmi, suami kepada Gayatri adalah sebagai langkah penyelesaian masalah dan untuk menggubah persepsi masyarakat setempat khususnya kaum wanita dalam aspek penjagaan kebersihan dan kesihatan ketika haid. Kajian ini  menggunakan kaedah kualitatif yang bersifat analisis tekstual naratif filem (PadMan 2018) melalui pendekatan inovasi sosial. Melalui hasil kajian, inovasi sosial ciptaan Lakshmi ini bersifat sebagai agen penolakan dan menyumbang kepada unsur negatif. Inovasi sosial ini bertindak sebagai unsur penentangan dari objektif utama fungsi inovasi sosial yang dikatakan oleh para sarjana Justeru, ia berfungsi sebagai elemen penentangan terhadap amalan dan kepercayaan tradisi dan agama di situ. Produk ini mengaibkan dan menjatuhkan maruah keluarga Lakshmi sendiri. Inovasi sosial ini turut dianggap sebagai unsur kejahatan yang mencabar agama, adat dan kepercayaan tradisi yang sudah lama diamalkan. Ironinya, pada masyarakat luar: daerah perkampungan lain dan bandar, inovasi sosial ini mencapai objektif yang dikehendaki.
 
The discussion offers in this paper draws on the innovation of female pad by Lakshmi, as an element of social innovation mechanism among the rural women dan society in India, in PadMan (2018). The invention of a female towel by Laksmi, a husband of Gayatri function as the innovation of solution and the element of change to his society and especially to the women community in his village. However, this perception serves as an element of opposition to their traditional practice and also the religious belief of the society. This study uses the textual analysis approach through the concept of social innovation. Findings of the study shows that Lakshmi’s social innovation fails to achieved its function defined bythe scholar. Yet it serves as negative elements to his family and his communinity. The action brought shame upon his family and he is labelled as a bad energy to the society. Ironically, to the others: those in the city and urban areas, his innovation serves as a positive element. Thus, it is an innovation that could lead society to a better life andhygiene. Hence, he is considering as a saviour or a hero.

Data deduplication is a crucial technique for packing data and reducing duplication when transferring data. It is widely used in the cloud to restrict the usage of capacity memory and aids in transmission capacity sparing. Before redistributing data, an encryption mechanism is used to ensure the integrity of sensitive data during the deduplication process. The SHA algorithm is being used to save data in text format. To generate the security bits, padding is appended to the text. In de-duplication, it calculates the hash, i.e. hexadecimal number, string, and integer data. Hash-based de-duplication is the implementation of whole file hashing to the entire file. Text data’s hash values are considered to as feature properties. In contrast to traditional deduplication solutions, clients that transfer data to the cloud certify duplication inside the cloud data. In virtualization, both limiting primary memory size and memory blockage are considered important bottlenecks. Memory deduplication identifies pages with the same content and merges them into a single data file, reducing memory usage, memory parceling, and improving execution. In cloud storage, the MPT is used to deduplication so that it is used in single copies of the same data for different data owners. If any data users try to replicate the same data, it will be mapped and related to the archive data, implying that the data can’t be stored away. To ensure cloud data security, encryption techniques are used to encrypt data throughout deduplication procedures and prior to outsourcing cloud data.

Published: August 2021

In order to optimize machinery use, the application of herbicides has been performed at different times of the day and night. Therefore, knowledge about the pesticide that will be used and how the spray volume and time of application affect the effectiveness of the product is very important. Thus, the objective of this work was to study the influence of spray volume and different time of application on the control of Urochloa brizantha by different doses of glyphosate. The treatments were arranged in a 5 x 3 x 2 factorial scheme in a randomized block design with four replications. Five doses of glyphosate (0; 1080; 1440; 1800 and 2160 g∙ha-1∙a.e.), three times of application (morning, afternoon and evening) and two spray volumes (50 and 100 L·ha-1) were evaluated. A control assessment was performed at 21 days after application, in addition to the accumulation of dry matter and the leaf area index on the regrowth. A satisfactory control of the grass was obtained for applications performed in the morning and afternoon, without interference of the volume applied and the doses tested. Evening application reduces the effectiveness of glyphosate in Urochloa brizantha burndown.

The ANOVA detected differences for genotype (G), environment (E) and their interaction (GEI), representing 19, 65 and 16 % of the total variation, respectively, with prevalence of hybrid by localities interaction. The first major components of the AMMI and GGE biplot models explained 77 and 83 % of GEI, respectively. The three models coincided and identified the hybrid RHA-180 (H6) with improved average performance, adapted and stable. The hybrid HIAAL (H3) was the most prominent. Among the checks, 'Pionero FL' (V3) was the most stable with moderate yield; the opposite occurred with ‘Soberana FL’ (V4) and ‘SD-20A’ (V1), that the AMMI and GGE biplot models identified with high and unstable performances and specific adaptation to locality INIA Guárico (L1), not coinciding with the mixed model. Two mega-environments were identified with the winning genotypes H6 and V4. There was divergence between AMMI and GGE biplot to identify discriminatory and representative locations. The Plot 199 (L3) was the most representative, while the location L1 discriminated better the genotypes. The GGE biplot analysis was more informative and complete for the GEI analysis.

Dada la importancia que tendría el uso de bacterias endófitas para el control de las enfermedades del cacao, el objetivo de este estudio fue construir el árbol filogenético y caracterizar las bacterias endofíticas formadoras de endosporas en función de la altitud, la edad y el tejido de la planta de cacao en una zona productora de la provincia de Esmeraldas en Ecuador. El aislamiento de las bacterias se realizó a partir de secciones de tejidos de mazorcas y pedicelos de la flor en cultivares de cacao Criollo tipo Nacional. Se obtuvieron 45 aislados de bacterias endófitas formadoras de endosporas, asociados principalmente con tejidos del endocarpio. El árbol filogenético reveló que todas las bacterias pertenecen al género Bacillus. No se encontró relación entre el número de aislados bacterianos con la edad de la planta, aunque hubo una ligera tendencia a la disminución de los aislados hacia los sitios de mayor altitud.

Abstract The anthropogenic impact on the biosphere every year leads to the depletion of all natural resources, including soil, which leads humanity to an ecological catastrophe. We have carried out work on the assessment of recultivation of the soil disturbed during the technical re-equipment works. It was revealed that in the soil areas located in the corridor of the passage of communications, due to the constant work on the repair, dismantling and construction of the routes of the corridor of their passage, the natural soil cover is not preserved, and in some places completely disappears, as well as there is mixing of soil layers and destruction of the natural soil cover.

Understanding of genetic diversity among the genotypes is the mainstay of plant breeding. The present study was carried
out to determine genetic divergence among 59 common beans genotypes collected from North West Himalaya for nine agromorphological traits. The analysis of variance depicted significant variability among genotypes for all the traits under study
indicating wide range of variability present in bean genotypes. The phenotypic coefficient of variation (PCV) and genotypic
coefficient of variation (GCV) was high for seed yield per plant followed by days to bud initiation. High heritability was also
observed for all traits except pod length. Cluster analysis grouped bean genotypes into five distinct clusters. The genotypes
under group II, III, V have more number of pods per plant, seeds per pod and single plant yield which can be utilized as
potential donors for enhancing the yield of other genotypes in breeding programmes. Hence, the selection based on these yield
contributing traits may helpful in future crop improvement programmes
Mythic content as a rhetoric in government-aided school textbooks of Nepal
Authors: GC Saroj
Published: September 2021

This paper offers a critical and political reading of the excerpts of myths included in government-sponsored school-level language textbooks of Nepal, and looks at how the content is more prone to instilling particular values than to teaching skills of language competence. Drawing on insights and postulations from Critical Discourse Analysis in general, and dispositive analysis in particular, it examines values embedded in the excerpts as a discursive site for the practice of knowledge-making and power. Given that textbooks are a cultural production at large, and therefore textual, the paper explores how the reproduction of mythical content has given rise to the pedagogy that serves the teleological purpose of producing the desired type of possible citizenry by keeping the essentialities of modern education such as critical engagement, linguistic and cognitive skills, the questioning attitude and critical thinking at the disposal. The paper concludes that the particular way of designation of the content is likely to halt the basic aim of producing the learners as active and critical social agents for the broader social transformation, and calls for a revisit to mitigate the gap between the professed objectives and their materialization in language textbooks and make the learning content more goal-oriented.

Esse estudo se propôs a analisar a influência de coalizões de defesa sobre as políticas de assistência social, a partir dos programas de governo dos candidatos à Presidência da República que chegaram ao segundo turno em 2018. A policy advocacy fundamenta a abordagem teórica, caracterizada por princípios e valores em subsistemas de políticas. Como perspectiva de análise, considerou-se o desenvolvimento da cidadania e a representação política na formação das coalizões e na defesa em torno das propostas dos candidatos. Como método, foi utilizada a análise de conteúdo e os resultados apontaram a influência das coalizões dominantes na defesa de políticas e sua relevância na janela de oportunidades proporcionada pelo processo eleitoral. O estudo aponta que as pautas defendidas pelas coalizões dominantes podem elevar determinadas questões ao status de pertencimento da agenda de políticas públicas, mesmo de forma antecipada, diferentemente do que aponta de forma hegemônica a literatura.
