Published: January 2023

Selection of suitable sites for construction of dam is the most important phase because a number of factors are required to consider that include topography, geology, tectonic settlements and the slope. We selected Diamer Basha dam site to analyze it feasibility considering real-time field data. Geologically the study site is a part of Chilas Mafic Igneous Complex which is not ophiolite. Matic complex is a block which is 40km in depth and 300km in length. These rocks are comparatively hard in nature and are considered good for construction of dam. Tectonically, we observed that the area under investigation was highly active tectonically. Surface deformation rates of the study site are highest throughout the world because this area is comprised of multiple fault lines that include Main Mantle Thurst (MMT), Main Karakoram Thrurst (MKT), Main Boundary Thurst (MBT) and many others. This area has become a hot cake for the geologist worldwide due to it’s very high surface deformation rates.Tectonically active regions are considered worst for construction sites, e.g., for dam sites. The dam site is actcually laying on the MKT which is not favorable for construction of Diamir Basha dam. A low-level earthquake may generate small cracks in concrete structure and any leakage of water may produce big holes with passage of time which are not remidable. A big level earthquake may vanish the dam site completely. Therefore, the current site is not favorable for construction of dam.

Published: January 2023

Alarge number of studies including research articles and surveys on android malware detection and analysis techniques have been presented during the last one and a half decades. The authors proposed different systems and frameworks to identify malware from software applications. However, there is no recent and comprehensive systematic literature review on the detection and analysis of android malware methods, systems, and frameworks. We present a systematic review of literature on android malware detection and analysis techniques and tools by following standard guidelines for Systematic Literature Review methodology from 2010 to 2021. We selected 75 most relevant studies out of 3343 published studies. We found that the prominent malicious datasets are Genome (39%) and Drebin (36%) used by different researchers for the detection of malware. The static, dynamic, and hybrid source code analysis methods are applied by android malware detection techniques. We also identified the limitations and future research directions of existing techniques as research gaps for the community. Based on the pragmatic evidence of this research, we have proposed a hybrid analysis-based multiple feature analysis framework. This framework will not only address the limitations of static and dynamic-based approaches, but it also analyzes evolving android malware datasets using deep neural network and machine learning techniques and improve the accuracy of evolving malware samples.

In Silico Phylogeny, Sequence and Structure Analyses of Fungal Thermoacidophilic GH11 Xylanases
Authors: SÜRMELİ Yusuf
Published: January 2023

Thermoacidophilic xylanase enzymes are mostly preferred for use as animal feed additives. In this study, we performed in silico phylogeny, sequence, structure, and enzyme-docked complex analyses of six thermoacidophilic GH11 xylanases belonging to various fungal species (Gymnopus androsaceus xylanase = GaXyl, Penicilliopsis zonata xylanase = PzXyl, Aspergillus neoniger xylanase = AnXyl, Calocera viscosa xylanase = CvXyl, Acidomyces richmondensis xylanase = ArXyl, Oidiodendron maius xylanase = OmXyl). To do this, amino acid sequences of six fungal thermoacidophilic GH11 xylanases, belonging to unreviewed protein entries in the UniProt/TrEMBL database, were investigated at molecular phylogeny and amino acid sequence levels. In addition, three-dimensional predicted enzyme models were built and then validated by using various bioinformatics programs computationally. The interactions between enzyme and the substrate were analyzed via docking program in the presence of two substrates (xylotetraose = X4 and xylopentaose = X5). According to molecular phylogeny analysis, three clusters of these enzymes occurred: the first group had PzXyl, AnXyl, and CvXyl, and the second group possessed GaXyl and OmXyl, and the third group included ArXyl. Multiple sequence alignment analysis demonstrated that the five xylanases (ArXyl, OmXyl, CvXyl, PzXyl, AnXyl) had longer N-terminal regions, indicating greater thermal stability, relative to the GaXyl. Homology modeling showed that all the predicted model structures were, to a great extent, conserved. Docking analysis results indicated that CvXyl, OmXyl, and AnXyl had higher binding efficiency to two substrates, compared to the GaXyl, PzXyl, and ArXyl xylanases, and CvXyl-X4 docked complex had the highest substrate affinity with a binding energy of -9.8 kCal/mol. CvXyl, OmXyl, and AnXyl enzymes commonly had arginine in B8 β-strand interacted with two substrates, different from the other enzymes having lower binding efficiency. As a result, it was concluded that the three thermoacidophilic xylanase enzymes might be better candidates as the animal feed additive.
Reproductive Medicine Involving Mitochondrial DNA Modification: Evolution, Legality, and Ethics
Authors: Ishii Tetsuya
Published: January 2023

Human oocytes have an abundance of mitochondria that have their own genome. Mitochondrial functions are exerted through evolutionarily-developed interactions between the nucleus and mitochondria. Since 1996, fertility clinics have practiced various types of germline mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) modification that alter the composition of mtDNA copies in oocytes or zygotes using micromanipulation. Experimental reproductive medicine has primarily intended to treat intractable infertility and has been used to prevent the maternal transmission of a pathogenic mtDNA mutation to offspring. In some cases, it has helped parents have a healthy genetically-related child; in others, it has resulted in miscarriages, aneuploid fetuses, or developmental disorders in the offspring. Adverse events have raised ethical controversy, leading to restrictive or prohibitive policies in the USA and China. Conversely, the UK recently became the first nation to explicitly permit two types of germline mtDNA modification (termed mitochondrial donation) for the sole purpose of preventing serious mitochondrial disease in offspring. The aim of this review is three-fold: first, to reshape the medical concept and evolution of germline mtDNA modification, while revisiting 14 clinical cases. Second, to analyse the legality of mtDNA modification, focussing on 16 Western countries. Finally, to consider the ethical aspects, including permissible cases, reproductive options, use of preimplantation and prenatal testing, and the humane follow-up of resultant children. The clinical use of germline mtDNA modification will likely become legal, at least for use in preventative medicine, in some countries. However, the potential clinical, ethical, and evolutionary implications mean that caution is required when considering its wider application.
Mechanical Properties and Microstructural Evolutions of High-Pressure Torsion-Processed Al7068 Alloy

Published: January 2023

The combination of severe plastic deformation, deformational heat, and frictional heat generated during the high-pressure torsion process has a great effect on microstructural evolutions, including grain refinement, dynamic recrystallization and recovery. In particular, the low melting temperature metallic alloys (e.g., aluminum and magnesium) also induce nano-precipitations in the matrix during high-pressure torsion, which results in both unique microstructure and mechanical properties of the nanocrystalline metallic materials. In this study, the mechanical properties and microstructural evolution of high-pressure torsion-processed aluminum 7068 alloy at room temperature were investigated. In the early deformation stage, both grain refinement and nano-precipitates were formed that increase the strength of ultrafine-grained aluminum alloy, and a maximum strength of 844 MPa was obtained for the 5T sample. However, in the later deformation stage, tensile strength decreases with the increase in shear strain due to grain growth, and coarse precipitates act as crack initiation sites during plastic deformation. In summary, the mechanical properties of high-pressure torsion represent the strength-ductility trade-off as the increase of the number of revolutions. Their mechanical properties are superior to those of recent severe plastic deformation-processed aluminum alloys. This result shows that the severe plastic deformation of the HPT process positively contributes to their mechanical properties by inducing multiple strengthening paths, such as grain refinement and nano-precipitation of the aluminum alloy.

The physiological and biochemical significance of changes in the total protein level in different tissues were discussed.
Basking Behaviour and Use of Riparian Tunnels by Mugger Crocodiles Crocodylus palustris (Lesson, 1831) of Savitri River at Mahad, Maharashtra, India
Authors: Manish Chavan Utkarsha , Ramakant Borkar Manoj
Published: January 2023

This study has recorded observations on maintenance behaviour pertaining to basking and use of tunnels by Mugger crocodiles Crocodylus palustris (Lesson, 1831) of river Savitri at Mahad in the Indian state of Maharashtra. The Mugger shuttles between the land and water guided by a circadian rhythm, primarily to regulate its body temperature. This amphibious reptile was seen to be meeting its thermal preferences by a combination of heat-seeking and heat-avoiding behaviours that largely revolve around immersion in water, basking and retreating in tunnels. The ascendance from water body to bask on dry ground also included intermediate postures taken by the Mugger like pre-basking, surface basking and shallow water basking; and the relative amount of time spent in each of these behaviours varied seasonally. Also, the Mugger crocodiles were seen to excavate separate tunnels on the river banks for purpose of resting and nesting. These observations recorded over a span of nine years are discussed in the context of ethology. The study also documents behaviour of Mugger with conspecifics and other species that share its habitat. It is emphasized that understanding of crocodile behaviour helps in discernment of species-specific natural history, and is also important from the perspective of its conservation management.

Published: January 2023

The regular use of waste cooking oil, which has a high level of free fatty acids and carbonyl and peroxide compounds, is the background of this study, which is harmful to one's health. Using it indefinitely will harm health, including cancer, heart disease, and possibly death. We, therefore, performed research on the purification and analysis of waste cooking oil using white rice and aking rice with the batch method to detect the free fatty acid levels before and after purification and to establish the effectiveness of white rice and aking rice. Determine the utilized cooking oil's quality following filtration using adsorbent. The findings demonstrated that white rice was more effective than aking rice at reducing fatty acid levels, as shown by the acquisition of FFA levels using white rice of 0.3141% in the merchant oil sample and 0.2410% in the home oil sample. In comparison, purification with the aking rice adsorbent is 0.3474% in the merchant oil sample and 0.1374% in the home oil sample.

Numerical Simulation of Unsteady Fluid Parameters for Maglev Flight Wind Tunnel Design
Authors: Fu Cheng , Gao Xinglong , Sun Yunqiang , Kou Jie , Xu Dachuan , Chen Jingxiang
Published: January 2023

The maglev flight tunnel is a novel conceptual aerodynamics test facility, in which the complicated aerodynamic characteristics caused by the high-speed translation of a moving model in a long, straight, closed tunnel, and wave propagation and aero-structure single-way coupling problems can be investigated. The unsteady characteristics originating from a high-speed model in the maglev flight tunnel were investigated and evaluated with regard to aero–structure coupling. The new conservation element and solution element method was used to solve the 3-D compressible fluid surrounding a moving model in a tunnel, and the variations in the aerodynamic parameters, wave propagation characteristics, and pressure distribution in the tunnel were obtained. The results provide support for key technical problems, such as a wave-absorbing construction design of the maglev flight wind tunnel.
Influence of the Projectile Rotation on the Supersonic Fluidic Element
Authors: Wang Yufang , Wang Nannan
Published: January 2023

The effects of projectile rotation on the internal and external flow fields of the supersonic fluidic element are numerically studied using sliding grid technique and the RNG k-ε turbulence model. The effects of rotating speed on internal and external flow fields, switching time and output characteristics are studied. The results show that: for the external flow field, there is no obvious change in the flow field structure at low angular velocity; when the angular velocity increases to 20 r/s, the flow field structure becomes obviously asymmetric due to the Coriolis force; the flow field far away from the surface of the projectile body (more than 0.3 m) is much more affected than the flow field near the surface of the projectile body. The influence of projectile rotation on the internal flow field is much weaker than on the external flow field, and the change of internal flow field is not obvious when the rotational speed is less than 20 r/s. The switching time decreases with the increase in angular velocity, and within normal range of the angular velocity, the deviation of switching time from that without rotation is within 5%. The change of thrust distribution is not obvious when the rotational speed is less than 20 r/s. However, when the rotational speed reaches 50 r/s, the thrust of the middle part of the right nozzle increases by about 20 N.
Numerical Investigations of Precise Wind Field in Main Landing Area during the Landing Phase of “Shen Zhou” Series Spacecraft Mission
Authors: Song Yilei , Ma Guolin , Tian Linlin , Zhao Ning , Lu Xiyun
Published: January 2023

Wind is one of the main factors raising errors in the spacecraft’s landing phase. As a result, an accurate description of incoming wind conditions is supposed to be a prerequisite for reliable parafoil trajectory planning. This work utilizes the Weather Research Forecast (WRF) model system with efficient parameterization schemes to reproduce the wind field in the main landing area during the landing phase of the “Shen Zhou” series spacecraft mission. In comparison with observational data from several cases, it is validated that the WRF model has the potential to give an accurate imitation of wind behaviors and is expected to be an alternative technique for costly and time-consuming experimental undertakings. Based on the numerical results, a linear model is proposed in the current work, which is applicable to the altitude range, specifically for parafoil trajectory planning. It is validated by comparisons with observational wind properties from radio-sounding stations. In addition, a sixth-order polynomial model is introduced for comparison as well. The results show that the current proposed model has both the characteristics of a simple form and good accuracy. It shows overall better consistency with observational data than the sixth-order polynomial model.
A Modification to the Enhanced Correction Factor Technique for the Subsonic Wing–Body Interference Model
Authors: Mao Kun , Jing Wuxing , Cheng Pan , Liu Xiaoyan , Sun Yuchen , Zhang Meihong
Published: January 2023

In this work, the enhanced correction factor technique (ECFT) is modified for a subsonic wing–body interference model, which can consider the forces on both the lifting boxes and the body elements of an idealized airplane, termed the advanced ECFT method. A passenger aircraft model is chosen as the simulation model, and the longitudinal static aeroelasticity at the transonic situation for two-degree freedom, including the α (angle of attack) degree and ϕ (angle of horizontal tail) degree, is simulated in this paper. The corresponding CFD results are used to correct the aerodynamic influence coefficients (AIC) matrix, which is then simulated by MSC.NASTRAN. The pressure distribution results of different aircraft components received by the advanced ECFT method indicate that it is suitable for the subsonic wing–body interference model. Compared with the uncorrected linear method and the diagonal corrected method, it is generally more consistent with the CFD/CSD coupling method, not only for the lifting boxes, but also for the body elements. In addition, the aerodynamic derivative results also show good agreement with the flight test data, which solidly verifies the advance ECFT method.

Leaf-color mutants in rice (Oryza sativa L.) are excellent models for studying chlorophyll biosynthesis and chloroplast development. In this study, a yellow-green-leaf mutant generated by 60Co irradiation, ygl9311, was isolated: it displayed a yellow-green leaf phenotype during the complete growth cycle. Compared with the wild type, the photosynthetic pigment contents of leaves in ygl9311 were significantly reduced, and chloroplast development was retarded. Genetic analysis indicated that the ygl9311 phenotype was controlled by a single recessive nuclear gene. Map-based cloning and transcriptome sequencing analysis suggested that the candidate gene was OsChlC1 (BGIOSGA012976), which encodes a Mg-chelatase I subunit. The results of CRISPR/Cas9 system and RNAi knockout tests show that mutation of OsChlC1 could reproduce the phenotype of yellow-green leaves of the mutant ygl9311. In conclusion, the novel rice leaf-color gene OsChlC1 affects the content of chlorophyll in rice, showing a relatively conserved function in indica and japonica rice cultivars.

Canker symptoms were observed on almond trees in the Fez-Meknes region, Morocco. Isolations were conducted from the infected branch and trunk showing internal and external brown lesions. Four representative fungal isolates were screened, and their identities were confirmed by cultural traits and sequence analysis of DNA using two genes, the ITS region (internal transcribed spacer) and calmodulin (cmdA). The identified fungi were Curvularia hawaiiensis, Fusarium ambrosium, Lasiodiplodia theobromae, and Chondrestereum purpureum. The pathogenicity test on almond twigs revealed that these species were pathogenic to their host with different degrees of virulence, with Lasiodiplodia theobromae as the most virulent causing the longest necrotic lesion (285.17 mm) and the death of twigs. Physiological traits analysis of the above-mentioned fungi showed that the optimum mycelium growth response at different temperatures varies from 10 to 35 °C, while the pH ranges between 3.0 and 8.0. This study confirms the presence of canker pathogens on almond trees, which will contribute valuable information to improve the understanding of the contemporary status of almond trees, thus helping the improvement of the management of almond orchards. To our knowledge, all these fungi represent new records in Morocco and some of them are confirmed on the almond trees for the first time in the world.

The sustainability of rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivation has been threatened by water deficit and nitrogen (N)-fertilizer abuse. Straw return combined with N-fertilizer reduction could be an effective agronomic practice to improve N-use efficiency in rice production, but the interaction with water-saving irrigation regimes remains largely unknown. Here, a 2-year paddy field experiment was conducted to elucidate the effects of irrigation regime (continuously flooded, CF; controlled irrigation and drainage, CID) and straw return with N reduction (conventional farmers’ fertilization practice of 300 kg N ha−1 without straw return, N300; straw return with 25% N reduction, SN225; straw return with 50% N reduction, SN150) on rice growth dynamics, grain yield and water–nitrogen utilization. The results showed that CID significantly affected photosynthesis and fluorescence indicators, and increased grain yield and water productivity of rice. Straw return with N reduction reduced most rice growth traits, exhibiting lower plant height, tillers, leaf photosynthesis, chlorophyll fluorescence and dry matter accumulation, especially in vegetative growth under CF. In contrast, SN225 under CID showed compensatory effects on photosynthetic and fluorescence traits, thus improving N uptake during the reproductive growth stage. Despite a 6.6–7.1% yield reduction in SN225, 25% of N-fertilizer input was saved, with a corresponding increase in internal N-use efficiency and N-partial factor productivity. Overall, the present study indicates that straw return combined with moderate N deficiency might be a more eco-friendly and sustainable agronomic practice in water-saving irrigated rice fields.

Root-knot nematode disease occurs frequently due to continuous monocropping and excessive water and nitrogen input. The disease degree and gall index are often used to evaluate the damage of root-knot disease. However, the weak correlation between these two indicators to tobacco leaf dry weight has often been reported. The objective of this study was to verify whether the use of the root-knot density (RKD)—the root-knot number per unit root weight or volume—as a new indicator could describe the damage of root-knot disease to tobacco growth and yield quantitatively. A total of 3000 tobacco plants from 60 independent plots were classified according to the damage symptom of leaves in situ. A total of 6 plants in each plot were selected and sampled to represent six damage levels in a total of 360 plants. The responding roots were taken out with a root auger. The dry weight of the leaves, stems, roots and root knots as well as the root volume, root-knot number and volume, disease degree, and gall index were determined for all 360 plants separately. Our results showed that: (1) the disease degree and gall index of the root-knot nematodes had a weak negative correlation with the tobacco leaf dry weight while the leaf dry weight and the dry weight, volume, and number of root knots were not correlated; (2) the root dry weight, volume, and length of roots with a diameter ≥2 mm were significantly positively correlated with the leaf dry weight; (3) the RKD of roots with a diameter ≥2 mm was significantly negatively correlated with the leaf dry weight; and (4) the dry weight of the leaves, stems, and roots decreased significantly with the increase in the average RKD of roots with a diameter ≥2 mm in the reclassified groups, which was significantly positively correlated with the average reclassified disease degree and gall index. Our results highlighted that the proposed RKD in this paper can be used to evaluate the damage degree of root-knot disease quantitatively as a new indicator in future research and the practical diagnosis of root-knot nematodes.

The planter plate is the most important component of the pneumatic hill-drop seed metering system for rapeseed. The structural parameters of the planter plate are the primary determinants of rape planting. The key structural and operational parameters, such as the layout of the suction hole, its diameter, and its shape, were determined through theoretical analysis. Fluent is used to simulate the flow field of various types of suction holes, and the effect of suction hole shape on the change in the flow field of the suction chamber shell is analyzed. Under the same boundary conditions, the results indicate that the maximum velocity of the end face of the horn hole and the average pressure of the section are the highest. Using a high-speed camera, the effects of suction hole diameter and shape on seed filling performance were studied, and the results of Fluent simulation analysis were validated. The optimal seed metering device operating parameters were as follows: planter plate speed of 30–70 r/min and negative pressure of −2.5–−1.5 kPa. The influence of working negative pressure and the rotational speed of the planter plate on seed arrangement performance was studied within the optimal operating parameter range. In order to improve the performance of rational close planting in the seed planter, the multi-objective optimization design of working parameters and the verification test were also conducted. The results showed that with the best combination of working parameters, the empty broadcast rate does not go above 3%, the hole number qualified rate does not go below 96%, and the difference between them and the theoretical optimization result does not go above 5.5%.

Microgreens are a functional food that is very appreciated for their good taste and product features. They are produced all year without fertilizers and pesticides. In this paper, the effects of the application of commercial and natural biostimulants on the yield and nutraceutical properties of turnip greens and radish microgreens were investigated. The experiment consisted of four treatments based on biostimulants (Bio-1: TRAINER®; Bio-2: AQUAMIN®; Bio-3: leaf moringa extract; C: distilled water (control)) applied in two species (turnip greens and radish). Fresh and dry biomass, nitrate content, pigments, antioxidants, and antioxidant activity were measured. All biostimulants promoted biomass (both fresh and dry) accumulation in the radish but not in turnip greens. The treatment with biostimulant did not affect plant growth in the radish, while a depressive effect of Bio-1 upon plant growth was observed in turnip greens (−19% smaller than control). In radish, Bio-3 led to microgreens with the highest chlorophyll a content (+75% with respect to the control). Bio treatments did not affect the Chl (a, b, total) content in turnip greens. Biostimulants significantly lowered the nitrate content compared to the control (−27% nitrates) and significantly promoted TPC (+19% over the control) in the radish. They also stimulated antioxidant activity (DPPH), with the highest value in Bio-1, in the turnip, and in Bio-2 and Bio-3, in the radish. Conclusively, biostimulant treatments showed a positive effect on microgreens and, in particular, on those of the radish, improving various nutraceutical parameters.

The present review provides detailed information on the adverse effects of MPs on wild marine organisms, including tissue damage, fish condition, oxidative stress, immune toxicity, and genotoxicity. A bibliometric analysis was carried out on CiteSpace (version 6.1.R3) (Drexel University, Philadelphia, PA, USA) to verify how many papers studied the effects on wild marine species. The results showed a total of 395 articles, but only 22 really presented data on the effects or impacts on marine biota, and of these, only 12 articles highlighted negative effects. This review shows that the observed effects in wild organisms were less severe and milder than those found in the experimental conditions. The knowledge of negative effects caused by direct ingestion of microplastics in wild animals is still limited; more efforts are necessary to fully understand the role of MPs and the adverse effects on wild marine organisms, the ecosystem, and human health.
