O processo de morte e morrer é fato iminente na vida humana e faz parte da realidade dos profissionais da área da saúde. Estudos indicam que os profissionais apresentam dificuldades para realizar o manejo e a assistência à pessoa que experiencia uma perda, principalmente quando ocorre no início da vida, como é o caso dos óbitos fetais. O objetivo do estudo foi identificar as dificuldades da equipe de enfermagem no cuidado à mulher com diagnóstico de óbito fetal. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa de abordagem Convergente Assistencial, realizada em uma maternidade do sul do Brasil. A coleta de dados ocorreu entre novembro de 2014 e maio de 2015, a partir de uma prática educativa com 23 profissionais da equipe de enfermagem. A análise seguiu quatro etapas – apreensão, síntese, teorização e transferência. Os resultados demonstraram que os profissionais apresentam dificuldades de enfrentamento da perda fetal na maternidade. Há falhas na comunicação entre os profissionais e a mulher, por não se sentirem preparados para atuar nesta situação. Por outro lado, a comunicação não verbal por meio do silêncio, respeito no tempo da fala, olhar preocupado, espontaneidade dos gestos e carinho, foram apontados como importantes estratégias de enfrentamento da morte. As condutas da enfermagem no processo de parir na perda fetal também influenciam esta experiência, sendo relevante a oferta de métodos não farmacológicos para alívio da dor durante o trabalho de parto e parto e o cuidado integral individualizado. Falhas estruturais e organizacionais da instituição, que não assegurava a privacidade das mães enlutadas durante o atendimento, foram apontadas como empecilho neste contexto. O estudo mostrou que as principais dificuldades enfrentadas pela enfermagem no cuidado à mulher que vivencia o óbito fetal dizem respeito a falhas na formação profissional e problemas estruturais da instituição.
CHICKPEA (CICER ARIETINUM L.) GENOTYPES EVALUATION FOR HIGH YIELD THROUGH MULTIVARIATE ANALYSIS
Authors: QULMAMATOVA D.E.
Published: March 2023

Assessment of crop accessions through yield components is the most popular way for selecting welladapted and stable genotypes for certain growing conditions. Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is an important food legume crop in Uzbekistan. The 71 chickpea genotypes received an evaluation for morphological and yield traits through principal component, cluster, and biplot analyses. Principal component analysis (PCA) estimated chickpea variables into two main components accounting for 76.32% of the total variation. In chickpea genotypes, the traits viz., plant height, number of pods per plant, pods weight per plant, number of seeds per plant, seed weight, and seed yield showed a positive relationship with the first component (PC-I). Seed yield and the number of branches showed a positive correlation with the second component (PC-II). Biplot analysis indicated a positive association of seed yield (SY) with the number of branches (Br), number of pods per plant (NPP), number of seeds per plant (SPP), seed weight (SW), pod weight (PW), yet a negative association with plant height (PH). The 36 winter and 35 spring chickpea genotypes underwent analysis, then clustered based on various yield traits. The chickpea genotypes grouped into six clusters used the cluster analysis. Genotypes in cluster I and cluster VI showed the highest grain yield whereas cluster II and cluster III included the taller genotypes found suitable for mechanical harvesting. These findings can serve beneficial in chickpea hybridization for yield improvement in future breeding programs.

Published: March 2023

The availability of anther culture methods for producing pure lines in a doubled-haploid (DH) plant form makes it possible to accelerate the development of hybrid varieties in eggplant. Previous studies have developed an efficient eggplant anther culture method. However, the formation of spontaneous DH plants through this method is relatively low, ranging from 25%–30%. Recently several studies reported that pendimethalin effectively duplicates the chromosome numbers of several plant species in vitro. This study aimed to determine the pendimethalin effect on the diploidization of eggplant haploid plantlets from anther culture. The study compared three concentrations of antimitotic pendimethalin: 100 μM, 300 μM, and 1000 μM in three incubation durations: two, four, and six days. The results showed the treatment with a pendimethalin concentration of 300 μM incubated for two days gave the highest level of plantlet diploidization at 75.0%. In vitro, chromosomal duplication treatment using pendimethalin with different concentrations and duration of incubation time affected the plantlet survival and growth of eggplant haploid plantlets. The increase in pendimethalin concentration and incubation duration inhibited the physiology and growth of plantlets and affected alteration in the ploidy level of eggplant haploid plantlets.

The ecological situation and modern agro-landscape improvement, soil fertility maintenance and uplifting, formation of ecologically safe agro-ecosystems with germplasm diversity in crop rotation, and cultures-soil conditioners are the focus of the study. Nitrogen is a vital element required in larger quantities by plants; however, lack of it has become a problem in organic farming. The presented study suggests ways organic farming can boost up nitrogen in return to address nitrogen deficiency. The research shows data on the harvest of three-year standing alfalfa and indicators of the efficiency of annual crops’ use in the crop rotation of organic farming. The study findings exhibited that alfalfa accumulates residues of up to 13–17 t ha-1 in three years of standing, containing more than 280–300, 63–80, and 66–120 kg NPK ha-1, respectively. In the efficiency of different crop rotations, the alfalfa accumulated 13 and 20 t ha-1 organic residues in the two- and three-year periods, respectively. More than 11 t ha-1 of green mass containing 65 to 70 kg of nitrogen, 20 to 25 kg of phosphorous, and 55 to 60 kg of potassium accumulates in the soil in welded form. By sowing in good time, mixed with oats, leave the soil with up to 12–15 t of organic matter, containing 190–200, 35–40, and 230–250 kg NPK ha-1, respectively. A pea-oat mixture of about 12.0 t ha-1 of green mass resulted in 132, 46, and 102 kg NPK ha-1, respectively. The latest findings can serve as a basis for the development of new approaches related to the organic farming system in Southeast Kazakhstan.

The genetic parameters, eigenvalues in principal components, correlation, and path coefficient in Egyptian rice (Oryza sativa L.) proceeded to understand the interrelationship among studied traits, which helps develop selection strategies in genetic breeding programs under aerobic conditions. Twelve rice genotypes planted under the aerobic condition in a randomized complete block design included three replications during the 2020 and 2021 seasons. The analysis of variance revealed significant differences among studied genotypes, indicating a broad genetic diversity among its genotypes. Eigenvalues used helped to understand the data structure and trait relations and divided the 21 traits into two components. The highly positive phenotypic and genotypic correlations appeared in 16 characteristics, i.e., leaf area index, total chlorophyll, and antioxidant traits, indicating that any improvement of these traits will improve rice grain yield under aerobic conditions. The path structure showed that panicle weight, the number of panicles hill-1, catalase, superoxide dismutase, root length, and flag leaf area had increased grain yield. The current results indicated that Egyptian hybrid1, GZ9399, and Giza179 could recommend for cultivation under aerobic conditions and serve as donors in breeding programs to improve tolerance to drought under aerobic conditions.

This study recovered 15 Rhizobium and Bradyrhizobium isolates from nodules of different legume plants (Faba bean, Pea, Soybean, and Clover) grown in nine Egyptian governorates representing the delta region (Menoufia, Gharbia, Suez, Qalubia, Cairo, Sharkia, Behirah, Kafr El-sheikh, and Ismailia). The infectivity test proceeded with all isolates retaining and infecting their hosts, demonstrating that they are Rhizobium cultures. Molecular identification based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing revealed that the isolates belonged to two species of Rhizobium, namely Rhizobium leguminosarum (RL1, RL2, RL3, RL4, RL5, RL6, RL7, RL8, RL9, RL10, RL11, RL12, and RL13) and Bradyrhizobium japonicum (BJ1 and BJ2). Moreover, PCR based on specific primers was employed to detect nifH gene in the genomes of tested isolates. Most of the isolates exhibited sensitivity toward antibiotics, and were able to produce HCN. The isolates of RL4, RL6, RL9, and RL10 were positive for chitinase activity and exhibited clear zones ranging from weak to sturdy. The antagonism evaluation of Rhizobium isolates against Fusarium solani and Macrophomina phaseolina ensued under in vitro conditions. The isolates RL6 and RL9 of R. leguminosarum were the most effective, suppressing more than 50% growth of M. phaseolina. Similarly, the isolates RL4, RL6, RL9, and RL10 revealed the most effective and inhibited more than 50% growth of F. solani. Interestingly, the isolates RL6 and RL9, which exhibited high levels of suppression against M. phaseolina, also displayed high levels of suppression against F. solani.

Maize developed from its ancestor, teosinte, about 10,000 years ago. The evolution has gone from teosinte with multiple tillers to single-tiller maize plants. An investigation took place to identify and sequence genes related to tillering ability in maize and perform In silico analysis. Mating proceeded by manual pollination between the commercial hybrid SC2031 of maize (Zea mays L.) and the teosinte genotype Domiata (Durra rayyana). The parents, F1 hybrids, and their F2 progenies gained evaluation for tillering ability. The SC2031 (low or no-tillers) exhibited fragments ranging from 75 to 420 bp. The fragment observed with 262 bp size was in the F1 and nine out of 10 low-tillering F2 progenies. The Domiata parent, a high-tillering variety, exhibited three fragments ranging from 82 to 534 bp. The fragment with 445 in size occurred in nine out of 10 high-tillering F2 progenies. The fragment of 262 bp, which may be responsible for the low tillering ability, and the fragment of 445 bp, for the high tillering ability, were eluted from the gel, sequenced, and submitted to GenBank. The predicted protein, T1-L, of the DNA sequence from the low-tillering parent has a molecular weight of 6.69 kD and pI of 6.53, belonging to the GRAS family, which plays an important role as transcriptional factors required for the adequate pattern of radial rooting and shooting. The predicted protein, T1-H, of the DNA sequence from the high-tillering parent has a molecular weight of 14.08 kD, and pI of 7.97, belonging to the TEOSINTE BRANCHED 1, CYCLOIDEA, PCF1 (TCP) family that plays an essential role as transcriptional factors required for apical dominance.

Published: March 2023

Taro (Colocasia esculenta L. cv. Pontianak) is a popular and widely cultivated cultivar in the Indonesian farming community. In taro Pontianak, manipulating the ploidy level by chromosome doubling can enhance its genetic diversity. The latest study aimed to evaluate the oryzalin-induced polyploid taro cv. Pontianak compared with its diploid in terms of growth, anatomical, cytological, morphological, and agronomic traits in the greenhouse and the field. In vitro shoots of taro cv. Pontianak were soaked using a liquid medium supplemented with oryzalin with a concentration of 30 and 60 μM for one day. After five times of subcultures, flow cytometry analysis proceeded to determine their ploidy levels. The diploid (2n = 2x) and tetraploid (2n = 4x) plantlets were then acclimatized in the greenhouse for six to eight weeks and hardened for two months before planting in the field for 10 months. Squashing the root tip to ensure the ploidy levels of taro seedlings helped measure the chromosome numbers. Observing the growth, anatomical, and agronomic traits of diploid and tetraploid plants occurred during the hardening process until harvest time. The 30 μM oryzalin treatment produced tetraploid and mixoploid shoots; none from the 60 μM treatment. Oryzalininduced tetraploid taro exhibited some morphological characteristics of tetraploid plants, such as, longer stomata size and low density. Tubers of tetraploid plants tended to have increased protein, ash, and water content compared with their diploid counterpart. However, tetraploid taro showed a slower growth rate both in the greenhouse and the field. Additionally, it gave lower yields than diploids in some agronomic characteristics, including delayed flowering time, lower plant fresh weight, and smaller tubers. This study provides information that oryzalin-induced tetraploid taro could exhibit increasing and decreasing nutritional-agronomic traits (as mentioned above) compared with its diploid.

Mangifera kemanga Blume is a wild relative of mango (Mangifera indica) and a local fruit with various potential uses. The community uses its fruit and leaves for food and its wood as a building material. However, the genetic diversity and taxonomic status of M. kemanga species still need more exploration and have a dispute with M. caesia Jack. The presented study aimed to determine the taxonomic status of M. kemanga and its relationship with M. caesia through a molecular approach and to recognize the species’ delimitation. The recorded data analysis used the trnL-trnF intergenic spacer sequence. Carrying out DNA isolation employed the Geneaid Genomic DNA Mini Kit (Plant) protocol, with the DNA sequences analyzed for kinship using Maximum Parsimony and Neighbor-Joining methods and genetic diversity analysis performed using DnaSP 6. A total of 27 trnL-trnF intergenic spacer sequence identification and authentication resulted from BLAST on NCBI as sequences derived from the genus Mangifera. The phylogenetic tree revealed that the accessions of M. kemanga and M. caesia are very similar, hence, considered not as independent species. Thus, based on the trnL-trnF intergenic spacer sequences, M. kemanga is a synonym of M. caesia with taxonomic status as a variety of M. caesia. This molecular-based taxonomic evidence is significant for determining the valid species status of M. kemanga so that it can provide basic information for further studies on biodiversity and germplasm conservation.

Potassium (K) plays a key role in numerous plant metabolic processes, and its adequate amount is necessary for proper plant growth and development. Imbalanced fertilizer application has rapidly depleted the soil available K and harmed crops. However, the science-based K application in crops must follow the 4R nutrient stewardship approach to enhance crop yields. Therefore, a planned pot study used the 4R nutrient management technique for wheat potassium management. The evaluation of two wheat cultivars (Punjab-2008 and Barani-2011) employed two commercial K sources (MOP and SOP) with different application methods (basal and foliar) and sowing times (15 October, 15 November, and 15 December). The wheat variety Punjab-2008 performed better in root and shoot length, fresh biomass, and grain yield between 15 October and 15 November. Meanwhile, the Barani-2011, sown on 15 November, produced higher total chlorophyll contents and water use efficiency (WUE). The use of SOP (high dose), MOP (medium to high dose), and foliar spray of SOP at 1.5% and 3% resulted in maximum shoot length and the root-to-shoot ratio for both tested cultivars. Punjab-2008 produced higher grain yield when applied with a high SOP level than a high level of MOP. Similarly, a maximum leaf area index and proline contents observed in Punjab-2008 occurred with a high level of SOP applied. In contrast, a higher net photosynthesis rate and WUE emerged in Barani-2011 under a medium SOP level and a higher level of MOP. Thus, the conclusion is that medium to high rates of SOP proved a better source of K nutrition for improving yield parameters of wheat cultivars.

This work studied the effect of irrigation and mineral fertilizers on the physical properties of light chestnut soil used in cultivating sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.). The experiment happened in 2021 on an irrigated field with an area of 2 ha in the territory of the Kazakh Research Institute of Agriculture and Plant Growing, District Karasai, Almaty region, Kazakhstan. A sugar beet hybrid (obtained from domestic selection ‘Aksu’ and foreign selection ‘Yampol’) cultivation used four levels of mineral fertilizers, i.e., 0:0:0 (control), 90:90:60, 120:120:90, and 150:150:120 NPK kg ha-1. During the sugar beet growing season, all periods of observations recorded an increase in the bulk density in the upper, middle, and lower soil layers, from 1.14–1.27 g/cm3 to 1.31–1.48 g/cm3. The content of agronomically valuable aggregates in 0–10 cm, 10–20 cm, and 20–30 cm soil layers decreased from the germination phase to harvesting of sugar beet in extensive technology (10.0%–15.7%) and intensive technologies (2.3%–13.1%). In these soil layers, the number of water-stable aggregates decreased from the beginning of renewal to the end of the growing season of sugar beet in technology without the use of fertilizers (2.9%–6.4%) and in technologies with the application of mineral fertilizers (1.6%–7.6%). In the soil layers, the noted highest content of productive moisture occurred in the phase of closing the leaves in the rows with the extensive technology of sugar beet cultivation (51.5–213.2 mm). Irrigation during the sugar beet growing season reduces the content of agronomically-valuable and water-stable aggregates in soil layers to the minimum values for harvesting in technology without the use of fertilizers (50.5%–54.4% and 12.9%–14.2%) and technology with the use of mineral fertilizers (52.3%–54.4% and 10.9%–13.5%), respectively.

Scarcity in irrigation water led to a gradual increase in water stress, consequently causing a decrease in dry matter, nitrogen uptake, productivity, and the protein content of barley. During two growing seasons, 2020–2021 and 2021–2022, two field experiments ensued to improve barley production in sandy soil under a deficit of irrigation water. The statistical analysis helped recommend the best factors to achieve maximum benefit with barley production under dry conditions and nitrogen mineral fertilizers. The significant variations occurred when irrigating with 60% full irrigation only, but were nonsignificant when irrigating with 80% full irrigation. Increasing the number of mineral fertilization doses to nine times resulted in higher nitrogen concentrations and availability inside the root-spreading area for the longest possible period without washing outside the root-spreading area by deep percolation than when given with three doses only. Irrigating with 80% full irrigation and nine dosages of mineral fertilization obtained the highest and best yield values. It resulted in a 20% reduction in irrigation water use and increased nitrogen fertilizer effectiveness through repeated application doses, resulting in increased productivity and less groundwater pollution. The simulation model received SALTMED model values with high accuracy for most of the studied traits; the R2 was not less than 0.97; therefore, it can function well under sandy soil conditions, which suffer from water scarcity.

A study to attain healthy tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill) seedlings through environment-friendly natural biological products took place from January to March 2022. Determining the effects of the inoculum prepared from five plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) isolates, i.e., Pseudomonas fluorescens, Pseudomonas putida, Lysinibacillus fusiformis, Enterobacter cloacae, and Kineococcus radiotolerans on the production of tomato seedlings, experiments proceeded at the Soil Microbiology Laboratory, Department of Soil Science and Water Resources, College of Agriculture, Tikrit University, Iraq. The isolates underwent screening for their efficiency as a biostimulant to dissolve insoluble phosphate compounds and produce indole acetic acid (IAA) and chelating compounds. The results showed the ability of all the isolates to produce IAA, chelating compounds, and solubility of phosphates. The P. fluorescens isolate showed superior in its phosphate solubilization and IAA production (41.30 mg p-1, 13.00 mg ml-1), followed by P. putida, E. cloacae, L. fusiformis, and K. radiotolerans, respectively, with the production of medium chelating compounds. The results also showed the superiority of the inoculated treatments over the non-inoculated treatments in the percentage and speed of germination, the length of tomato seedlings, the shoot dry weight, the number of leaves per plant, and root weight parts. The treatments with P. fluorescens displayed significant superiority in all studied traits, followed by P. putida, E. cloacae, L. fusiformis, and K. radiotolerans.

Strengthening agriculture involves various approaches to developing high-yielding new cultivars, optimization of soil composition, rational use of fertilizers, and pre-sowing treatment of seeds and seedlings. The safest and most environmentally friendly approach is to develop new genotypes, combining the most suitable characteristics in the existing growing area and environmental conditions. In this regard, the completed study aimed to breed various cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) cultivars during the years 2020–2021 under the environmental conditions of Aktobe region, Kazakhstan. Cucumber cultivars 584, 577, 427, 294, and 264 gained selection from the nursery based on a complex of economically valuable traits, laying of seed fruits, and individual selection from F2 to F8 populations, using the hybrid cultivar ‘Ular’ as the standard of comparison. Recorded phenological observations on growth stages, morphometrics, types of flowering, disease resistance, production, and biochemical traits of the fruits received analysis. Cucumber samples came from the Kazakh Research Institute of Potato and Vegetable Growing (KazNIIKO), Kazakhstan. The hybrid was a derivative of the L-1 maternal line and the Phoenix 640 paternal line. The research result on the above-recorded parameters characterized six promising domestic cultivars of cucumber, namely, 264, 294, 427, 524, 577, and standard hybrid ‘Ular.’ Based on the complex of economically valuable features, the most predominant C. sativus L. cultivar was 294.

Indonesia, as a mega-biodiversity country, has many kinds of tropical fruits. Solanaceae and Fabaceae families contain plant species that produce fruits and vegetables for human food, such as ‘rimbang’ (Solanum torvum), ‘terung asam’ (S. ferox), ‘kabau’ (Archidendron microcarpum), ‘jengkol’ (A. pauciflorum), and ‘petai’ (Parkia speciosa). This study aimed to determine the ability of DNA barcodes (matK and trnL-trnL-trnF intergenic spacer [IGS]) in distinguishing some of those tropical fruit plants. Plant materials came from Riau Province, Indonesia. Methods developed include total DNA extraction from fresh leaves and PCR using the primer pairs to amplify matK and trnL-trnL-trnF IGS. The PCR products underwent sequencing, with the DNA sequences analyzed using MEGA6. In this study, the obtained matK and trnL-trnL-trnF IGS sequences showed lengths ranging from 800 bp to 892 bp and 872 bp to 1113 bp, respectively. The matK and trnL-trnL-trnF IGS sequences of S. ferox, A. microcarpum, and A. pauciflorum provided the first sequences reported in those species. Several nucleotide variations in matK sequences emerged among the studied accessions caused by substitution mutation, including transversion and transition. No indel (insertion-deletion) mutation in the studied matK sequences occurred. Indel can also cause variations in trnL-trnL-trnF IGS sequences among the studied accessions aside from substitution mutation. For species S. torvum, S. ferox, and P. speciosa, there came about some decisive nucleotides based on the matK sequences. Moreover, for species S. torvum, S. ferox, A. microcarpum, A. pauciflorum, and P. speciose, there occurred few critical nucleotides based on trnL-trnL-trnF IGS. Also, there was a critical nucleotide for large-fruited ‘jengkol’ (one of the populations in A. pauciflorum) based on trnL-trnL-trnF IGS. However, both DNA barcodes could not differentiate the two types of S. ferox, i.e., ‘terung asam’ and ‘terung bulu.’ Both DNA barcodes showed to differentiate some species members of both families Solanaceae and Fabaceae into separate clusters. Moreover, compared with matK, the trnL-trnL-trnF IGS indicated uniqueness in discriminating populations within species.

Published: March 2023

Abstract : This paper describes a system for detecting and counting the number of vehicles on roads and highways using multiple techniques for extracting image or video features. Globally, the system merely requires a video clip captured by a multitude of static cameras mounted on roads and highways. The ability to recognise and identify a car in a video has proven to be the most difficult and presents numerous difficulties. Some issues may be associated with image processing, such as determining the number of vehicles in an image without human intervention. Where some vehicles can be excluded temporarily or permanently by other vehicles, making detection challenging or impossible. The four phases of the system described are: 1. The variable background subtraction 2. picture segmentation 3. vehicle detection a count of vehicles The need for this in vehicle detection and counting is particularly beneficial for traffic surveillance and many other purposes. Important system capabilities include the ability to identify and count vehicles. The capacity to demonstrate that the system will deliver output with the highest degree of accuracy. Keywords : Traffic Surveillance, Feature Extraction, Background Subtraction, Segmentation, Detection, Counting, Computer Vision, and Computer Vision.

Published: March 2023

An attempt has been made by a management college to understand the opinions and attitudes of the various kinds of employees in the education sector through the study project "Employee selection." in the direction of the institution's hiring of new employees. In this time of personnel shortages and rising service demands in the educational sector, it is crucial to investigate aspects that influence how employees focus their attention. However, the focus of this inquiry was only one school of a fast growing private college that grants degrees in health sciences, and all of the respondents were lecturers at that site. This analysis exposed the College's poor retention policies across all of the identified retention criteria, including pay and benefits, employee engagement, performance management, retention metrics, and career development. This necessitated a thorough assessment and revision of numerous administrative practises that were apparently focused on people management. The heterogeneous workforce population uncovered by the study's demographic findings further revealed the need for effective retention strategies that would result in higher job satisfaction and work performance. Using well-designed surveys with closed-ended questions, the data was gathered. This survey was International Journal of Scientific Research in Engineering and Management (IJSREM) Volume: 07 Issue: 03 | March - 2023 Impact Factor: 7.185 ISSN: 2582-3930 © 2023, IJSREM | www.ijsrem.com DOI: 10.55041/IJSREM17932 | Page 2 carried out within institutes of higher learning.
