Ud over de trykte tekster indeholder antologien en lang række korte tekster baseret på en række interviews med Flemming Mouritsen, foretaget i perioden 2008-12. I vores interviews med ham – vi benævner dem Samtaler – kommenterede han på sit eget liv og på sin skriftlige produktion, og således får vi både hans eget tilbageblik og hans nutidsperspektiv på det fyrre år lange forfatterskab. Vi markerer dem som samtaler ved hver gang at indlede med et spørgsmål fra os, men ellers har vi stort set udeladt vores egen medvirken i dialogen.

Samtaleuddragene giver også mulighed for at indfange den mundtlighed, der er så karakteristisk for Flemming Mouritsen, og som vi har bevaret, så vidt det nu er muligt. I løbet af de vældig mange timer, som interviewene har strakt sig over, har vi fået en række fortællinger om hans opvækst i Vendsyssel og familiens flytning til Aarhus, da han var omkring tolv år, han har fortalt om universitetsmiljøet i 1970'erne og 1980'erne, om pædagogseminariets 'matriarkalske' miljø og sammenstødet mellem praktisk og teoretisk arbejde med børn og børnekultur, om arbejdet med at få has på stoffet i skriveprocessen, og han har ikke mindst fortalt om erfaringerne med feltarbejde, hvor hans iagttagelser af børnene Morten, Jakob og Tine – og af deres børn – spiller en væsentlig rolle.

Gennem disse fortællinger får Flemming Mouritsen pointeret sine grundlæggende teorier, kategorier og teser om sammenhænge i en form, der afspejler det processuelle og situationsbundne i hans virke. Det er os, der som redaktører har fået det samlede materiale transskriberet, hvorefter vi har gennemskrevet det, har klippet og tilrettet samtalebidder, samt forsøgt at placere dem i forhold til tekster, de i vore øjne kan 'snakke sammen med'. Havde vi gengivet dem, som de forelå, ville de to bind snarere være blevet til tre, eftersom Flemming Mouritsen nok blev svækket fysisk i de sidste år af sit liv, men bestemt ikke blev det, hvad engagement og vedholdende fortælleglæde angår.

Selv om vi gengiver samtalerne 'stykkevis og delt', kan læseren ved hjælp af indholdsfortegnelsen imidlertid vælge at læse dem som en særskilt tekst. Man kan behandle samtalebidderne som det, de er: et liv genoplevet i erindringen af Flemming Mouritsen. Ind imellem har vi oplevet, at han huskede 'forkert' hvad fx et årstal, et navn eller en lokation angår, og det ser vi som et udtryk for, at perspektivismen ikke kun betegner vores oplevelse af fænomener i andres 'virkelighed', men også i eget liv. Flemming Mouritsen var frem for alt en stor fortæller – en sand fortæller.

Stjerneskud – Forskningspixibog om et farligt barn
Authors: Nørgaard Rikke Toft
Published: February 2024

Denne bog er første eksemplar af en genre, Nørgård har kaldt forskningspixibog. Bogen er produceret på baggrund af hendes ph.d. og forskningspublikationer omhandlende computerspil som et håndværk. Forskningspixibogen anvender narrativ etnografi og »evocative writing« til at fremstille forskningspointer. 

Gennem at kondensere et 3-årigt forskningsarbejde til pixibogsstørrelse bliver det muligt at producere forskning på måder, der rækker ud over den traditionelle forskningsartikel eller-bog. Forskningspixibogen er en form, der indeholder samme forskningstyngde som traditionelle forskningsartikler, men forsøger at få alternative forskningsindsigter og -analyser til at træde frem
Indledning
Authors: Toft Herdis , Jørgensen Helle Hovgaard
Published: February 2024

Tidsskrift for Børne- og Ungdomskultur havde i sit foregående nummer som tema Den fænomenale leg, og det indeholdt artikler om leg set i politiske, kulturelle og pædagogiske kontekster og forståelsesrammer. Det viste sig efter udgivelsen, at dette tema hverken for tidligere eller nytilkomne bidragydere til tidsskriftet var uddebatteret. Legetemaet breder sig i disse år næsten eksplosivt ud over stadig nye kontekster, og redaktionen har derfor med nr. 63 ønsket at både fastholde og udvide det kulturanalytiske og praksis-sensitive blik på legens forekomster.

Vi har navngivet temaet for nr. 63 som Den fænomenale leg fortsætter. Dermed peger vi på, at bidragyderne til dette nummer fortsat er optaget af spørgsmålene: Hvordan gøres leg? Hvad sker der i leg? og Hvad kan leg? Hertil kommer spørgsmålene: Hvem leger? Hvor leges der? og Hvornår leges der? Svarene på sådanne fundamentale spørgsmål finder vi bl.a. i artikler, som fører os ind i en ofte overset kulturhistorisk kontekst. Læseren vil f.eks. finde bidrag, som dokumenterer fremkomsten af hhv. danske sandkasser og byggelegepladser, og som derved udvider vores forståelse for, hvad legens fysiske rammer og materialer betyder for børnene. I andre bidrag undersøges det, hvordan man aktuelt ved hjælpe af medier som hhv. GoProkamera, tablets og mobiltelefon kan få adgang til børns selv-initierede leg, til deres ikke-overvågede karnevaleske og ’farlige’ leg i dagtilbud og lokalmiljøer. Heroverfor står bidrag om, hvordan voksne kan understøtte eksperimenterende medieleg blandt børn og om, hvilke rammer og muligheder, den styrkede læreplan sætter for pædagogers arbejde. Endelig er der bidrag, som med afsæt i hhv. praksisfortællinger og ledelsesteorier analyserer konflikter og konflikthåndtering i et legeperspektiv og dermed udvider blikket for den flydende grænse mellem leg og ikke-leg, mellem magt og afmagt.

Børnecentreret design af legeoplevelser – til børn, for børn eller med børn
Authors: Feder Karen
Published: February 2024

Artiklen undersøger forskelle og ligheder mellem den traditionelle designtilgang og den mere børnecentrerede designtilgang, samt hvornår der designes til børn, for børn eller med børn. Indholdet baserer sig på erfaringer fra flere års undervisning i børnecentreret design af leg for designstuderende på kandidatuddannelsen i Design for Play på Designskolen Kolding, og det empiriske datamateriale består af undervisernes refleksioner, opfølgende interviews med et hold studerende samt fotos fra deres designproces. De designstuderendes oplevelse af at arbejde med en børnecentreret designtilgang stilles over for deres tidligere oplevelser med den traditionelle designtilgang for at kunne identificere forskellene i de to forskellige positioner. Det diskuteres, hvordan de to designtilgange forholder sig til at designe til, for og med børn, og der gives et bud på en model, der kan være med til kommunikere dette bedre. Artiklen forsøger ikke at plædere for den ene eller den anden tilgang, men tilstræber at designerne opnår en øget bevidsthed og en mere aktiv stillingtagen til, hvilken tilgang de vælger hvornår og hvorfor, for at sikre mere relevante legedesigns til børn i fremtiden.
Med musikere og materialitet på børnehavens legeplads
Authors: Blomgren Henriette
Published: February 2024

Denne artikel inviterer ind i et materialitetsunivers og er samtidig et indblik i og udtryk for en forskers forsøg på at udfordre sit forsker- og analyseblik i tilknytning til et LegeKunst-projekt. Projektet udspiller sig på legepladsen i en børnehave, hvor børn mellem tre-seks år og deres pædagoger møder fire jazzmusikere og deres instrumenter i en periode fra start august til og med september 2020. Afsættet og intentionen med projektet er at lege sammen – både med udgangspunkt i jazzmusikernes instrumenter og musik, men i høj grad også ud fra børnenes optagetheder og spontanitet. Artiklens empiriske objekt er videooptagelser og øjebliksfotos fra samme, og i genbesøget af disse trængte materialiteten sig på – både visuelt i form af legepladsens skovle og skraldespande og auditivt i form af den musik eller lyde, som musikere og børn frembragte. Ved at tvinge blikket væk fra mennesker som centrum og privilegeret position for analysen og i stedet rette sig mod, hvad materialiteten gør, fremanalyserer jeg, hvordan lyd, musik, legepladsens remedier g musikinstrumenter går i samklang, vibrationer og intra-aktion med børn, pædagoger og musikere og således influerer på samspillet, og det der udfolder sig af leg. Artiklens teoretiske objekt er teorier og tilgange til materialitet som aktør og selvstændig medspiller, der påvirker og etablerer vibrationer og går i samklang med deltagerne (Pacini-Ketchabaw, Kind og Kocher, 2017; Gershon 2013; Rosa, 2021). Gennem analyser af udvalgte videosekvenser, hvor materialitetens kraft er omdrejningspunkt (Bennet, 2021), vises hvordan materialitet som aktør indvirker på og taler tilbage til deltagerne og således får betydning for resonans og den leg, der opstår. Artiklen bidrager til indsigt i betydningen af forskningstilgang og afsæt og desuden i leg i levet børneliv i institutionaliserede kontekster. Her er børn og barndom spændt ud i et net af materialitet, sted og relationer, der både er og skabes/gøres. En central pointe er, at musikere, børn og materialitet skaber en fælles form for børnekultur – en børnekultur in the making. Dermed aktualiserer artiklen betydningen af at inddrage materialitet ikke blot som en analysekategori i forskningsøjemed, men som en central igangsætter og medspiller i pædagogiske praksisser både i og udenfor LegeKunst-regi.
Good vs. Bad: An Empirical Analysis of the Brand Names of Coronavirus Vaccines
Authors: Kovács László
Published: February 2024

Brand names are assets in marketing: a good name can help to sell products. Although research has made several recommendations on how “good” brand names should be created, the complex process is not easily adapted to every product category. Little research is done on a particular product category: the brand names of vaccines. This paper contributes to vaccine brand names in light of the coronavirus pandemic. The theoretical part of the paper first describes the characteristics of “good” and “bad” brand names, and then the focus is narrowed down to the characteristics of drug brand names and to the processes that influenced the naming of coronavirus vaccines. In the empirical part of the paper, Hungarian students perform brand recognition, recall, and association tasks connected to vaccine brand names. It will be shown that the vaccines are known by their public brand names (e.g., Pfizer) and not by their actual brand names (e.g., Comirnaty). The rating of the brand names shows that public brand names are considered to be better than the actual brand names, while brand associations collected for the actual brand names show mixed results. In the last part of the paper, theoretical implications are discussed, and recommendations for pharmaceutical companies are formulated to show what steps these companies could take to overcome the impasse between public and actual brand names.
Critical Examination of the Intertextual Phrase Matching Module in the Thesaurus Linguae Graecae and Its Relevance for Biblical and Patristic Studies
Authors: Boogert Ernst
Published: February 2024

The rich availability of ancient Greek texts in the Thesaurus Linguae Graecae (TLG) has opened up new types of research for Biblical and Patristic scholars. A very helpful feature on the TLG’s website is the option to trace quotations with the help of an n-grams module (Intertextual Phrase Matching). However, it is virtually unknown how well this module performs and what scholars might expect from the results it produces. The core of this article, therefore, is devoted to a critical examination of the algorithm and of its results. The gospel according to John has been compared with the Paedagogus of Clement of Alexandria, with the gospel according to Matthew, and with the complete works of Plutarch. As it turns out, the algorithm performs well in cases of longer quotations with no or very few interpolations. Short quotations, however, are missed while interpolated or adapted quotations are poorly handled. It is suggested that the algorithm might perform better if the team of the TLG were to revisit its decision to ignore stopwords and if the algorithm were to allow for foreign words in its n-grams. Finally, it is advised that more transparency in the algorithm’s mechanisms and a possibility for manually tuning its parameters might improve its applicability.
Adapting Digital Biblical Resources for Translation and Teaching: Harvesting low-hanging fruit and growing next generation resources
Authors: Robie Jonathan
Published: February 2024

When biblicalhumanities.org launched in 2013, we naively assumed that software developers would know how to take advantage of high quality, innovative data if it were published in open formats under free licenses. We understood the importance of building communities that know how to take advantage of this data, software and frameworks that make it easily accessible, and tailoring data to specific use cases, but we assumed that this would happen if we just made the data freely available. Freely licensed base texts, morphologies, contextual glosses, syntax treebanks, discourse analyses, lexicons, textual variants, images, conjectural emendations, and grammars are available now, and some are at least as good as commercial resources, but they are not yet widely used.
In the last year or so, Jupyter Notebooks and academic conferences have started to bring this data into academic study, but we have barely begun to tap its potential for translation, language learning, and scripture engagement for those who know the languages. To realize this potential, we need to understand the use cases and mindset of potential users and create software and other resources tailored to their needs. Over time, we need to gather feedback from these same users, walk with them as they learn and grow, and welcome them into communities that will create the next generation of resources.
Plotting Persuasive Progress in Biblical Hebrew Language Learning
Authors: Winther-Nielsen Nicolai , Bang Rye Kofod Margrethe , Fernquist Robert
Published: February 2024

Bible Online Learner (https://bibleol.3bmoodle.dk/) claims to deliver a text that can persuade a language learner to practice best online. This corpus-driven learning technology was created as the engine and dashboard to drive learners through four crucial steps in a persuasive technology and design for language learning. The first step is to reduce challenges of learning through instant feedback on practice and to reward the learner with ongoing assessment of progress. The second step is to design for effective and efficient learning by forcing students to follow a specific path through tasks under surveillance of performance. This case is made for learning to read the Hebrew Bible through course material delivered at the My Biblical Hebrew Moodle website (https://mbh.3bmoodle.dk/). The third step is to enhance learning through adaptive tailoring to the need of learners who monitor their own practice. We discuss rich empirical evidence on daily online progression that documents self-directed learning. We have not yet reached the fourth and final step in a persuasive online language learning system, but we believe that it should include social experience from intensive courses, peer-based collaborative learning and enrichment by exposure to a use of modern Hebrew in Israel.

Published: February 2024

Esta investigación de carácter exploratorio y cualitativo se centra en el análisis de la polarización de los mensajes de odio hacia la Ley Trans de España en los vídeos publicados en TikTok. La muestra está compuesta de 112 contenidos posteados entre el 13 de octubre de 2022 y el 13 de abril de 2023. Los principales hallazgos indican la predominancia de polarización afectiva negativa hacia la nueva legislación contra la comunidad LGTBI+, a través de recursos discursivos que utilizan el odio y la desinformación para ridiculizar la ley y el colectivo trans.
El archivo como literatura marxista mundial. Viajes a la Unión Soviética a través de las revistas culturales argentinas de izquierda (1936-1949)
Authors: Davis González Ana
Published: February 2024

El artículo que sigue consta de dos partes: la primera, de índole metodológica, es un análisis teórico acerca del archivo como dispositivo de revisión historiográfica, que ejemplificaremos con el archivo CeDInCI (Centro de Documentación e Investigación de la Cultura de Izquierdas, Buenos Aires) donde se han consultado una serie de revistas culturales argentinas de izquierda de las décadas del treinta y cuarenta. Dicha consulta iba dirigida a reexaminar el campo hemerográfico argentino con el fi n de dar a conocer revistas culturales que, mediante la cultura soviética, aun desde su posición periférica, intentaron combatir la hegemonía del Sur, compitiendo con la revista de Ocampo en su afán de internacionalización. Así, la segunda parte de la investigación da cuenta de las revistas consultadas, de su interés historiográfico, y se centra en específico en "Orientación" y "La hora", órganos de difusión fundamentales para la cultura de izquierdas de dicho periodo. Concretamente, hemos seleccionado aquellos textos que dieran cuenta de los viajes de intelectuales a la Unión Soviética, al ser una modalidad discursiva preponderante entre los escritores latinoamericanos de todo el siglo XX, de ahí que nuestro cometido contemple elucidar el modo en que este género surge y se divulga a partir de los años treinta.

Body size as a metric for the affordable world
Authors: Feng Xinran , Xu Shan , Li Yuannan , Liu Jia
Published: February 2024

The physical body of an organism serves as a vital interface for interactions with its environment. Here we investigated the impact of human body size on the perception of action possibilities (affordances) offered by the environment. We found that the body size delineated a distinct boundary on affordances, dividing objects of continuous real-world sizes into two discrete categories with each affording distinct action sets. Additionally, the boundary shifted with imagined body sizes, suggesting a causal link between body size and affordance perception. Intriguingly, ChatGPT, a large language model lacking physical embodiment, exhibited a modest yet comparable affordance boundary at the scale of human body size, suggesting the boundary is not exclusively derived from organism-environment interactions. A subsequent fMRI experiment revealed evidence of affordance processing exclusively for objects within the body size range, but not for those beyond. This suggests that only objects capable of being manipulated are the objects capable of offering affordance in the eyes of an organism. In summary, our study suggests a novel definition of object-ness in an affordance-based context, advocating the concept of embodied cognition in understanding the emergence of intelligence constrained by an organism’s physical attributes.
Early evolution of the ecdysozoan body plan

Extant ecdysozoans (moulting animals) are represented by a great variety of vermiform or articulated organisms. However, controversies remain about the nature of their ancestral body plan although the vermiform hypothesis seems to prevail. We describe here
Beretella spinosa
gen et sp. nov. a tiny ecdysozoan from the early Cambrian, Yanjiahe Formation, South China, with an unusual sack-like appearance, single opening, and spiny ornament.
Beretella
has no equivalent among animals, except
Saccorhytus
from the basal Cambrian. Phylogenetic analyses resolve both forms as a sister group (Saccorhytida) to all known Ecdysozoa, thus suggesting that ancestral ecdysozoans may have been non-vermiform animals. Saccorhytids are likely to represent an early dead-end off-shot along the stem-line Ecdysozoa that possibly evolved through anatomical simplification (e.g. lack of anus). Although extinct during the Cambrian, this animal lineage provides precious insight into the early evolution of Ecdysozoa and the nature (possibly non-vermiform) of the earliest representatives of the group.
Using vulnerability assessment to characterize coastal protection benefits provided by estuarine habitats of a dynamic intracoastal waterway

The existence of coastal ecosystems depends on their ability to gain sediment and keep pace with sea level rise. Similar to other coastal areas, Northeast Florida (United States) is experiencing rapid population growth, climate change, and shifting wetland communities. Rising seas and more severe storms, coupled with the intensification of human activities, can modify the biophysical environment, thereby increasing coastal exposure to storm-induced erosion and inundation. Using the Guana Tolomato Matanzas National Estuarine Research Reserve as a case study, we analyzed the distribution of coastal protection services–expressly, wave attenuation and sediment control–provided by estuarine habitats inside a dynamic Intracoastal waterway. We explored six coastal variables that contribute to coastal flooding and erosion–(a) relief, (b) geomorphology, (c) estuarine habitats, (d) wind exposure, (e) boat wake energy, and (f) storm surge potential–to assess physical exposure to coastal hazards. The highest levels of coastal exposure were found in the north and south sections of the Reserve (9% and 14%, respectively) compared to only 4% in the central, with exposure in the south driven by low wetland elevation, high surge potential, and shorelines composed of less stable sandy and muddy substrate. The most vulnerable areas of the central Reserve and main channel of the Intracoastal waterway were exposed to boat wakes from larger vessels frequently traveling at medium speeds (10–20 knots) and had shoreline segments oriented towards the prevailing winds (north-northeast). To guide management for the recently expanded Reserve into vulnerable areas near the City of Saint Augustine, we evaluated six sites of concern where the current distribution of estuarine habitats (mangroves, salt marshes, and oyster beds) likely play the greatest role in natural protection. Spatially explicit outputs also identified potential elevation maintenance strategies such as living shorelines, landform modification, and mangrove establishment for providing coastal risk-reduction and other ecosystem-service co-benefits. Salt marshes and mangroves in two sites of the central section (N-312 and S-312) were found to protect more than a one-quarter of their cross-shore length (27% and 73%, respectively) from transitioning to the highest exposure category. Proposed interventions for mangrove establishment and living shorelines could help maintain elevation in these sites of concern. This work sets the stage for additional research, education, and outreach about where mangroves, salt marshes, and oyster beds are most likely to reduce risk to wetland communities in the region.

The "Right to Education Act" (RTE) is a crucial policy addressing elementary education challenges. Enshrined under Article 21A of the Indian Constitution, the RTE Act mandates free and compulsory education for children aged 6 to 14 years, making it a fundamental right. Despite its progressive intentions, the RTE Act faces several challenges in its implementation. Equitable access, inadequate infrastructure, shortage of teachers, quality of education and financial constraints are prevalent issues. Addressing these challenges requires concerted efforts from the government, civil society, and stakeholders. It involves increasing investments in education, improving the quality of teacher education and training, enhancing infrastructure facilities, and strengthening monitoring mechanisms. While the RTE Act represents a significant step towards ensuring universal access to quality elementary education in India, its practical implementation requires overcoming various challenges and addressing systemic issues to realize the vision of inclusive and equitable education for children.

A survey was conducted employing a purposive sampling technique, covering (n=15) Government and (n=10) Private elementary schools in Tuensang District, Nagaland, Northeast India. The primary emphasis is to examine the school infrastructure, a key provision under the "Right to Education Act". The study employed a close-ended questionnaire on key school informants. The results show a significant lag in the school infrastructure, underscoring several concerns for school authorities and SMCs in ensuring a 'child-friendly' space for effective learning outcomes. Based on the findings, suggestive measures and implications for intervention approaches are discussed to navigate the gaps and challenges. The study emphasizes the need for increased attention, prioritization, and inclusivity in elementary education to maximize its positive impact on children's development and future outcomes

Weather instability affects nematode proliferation in soil, affecting plant growth. Identifying endemic species and favourable seasons can guide farmers in cultivating crops during specific seasons, minimizing infections and improving yield. A survey to evaluate the influence of seasonal disparity on plant parasitic nematodes population in soil and roots of bell pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) was carried out during dry and rainy seasons in Otari, Abua/Odual Local Government Area of Rivers State, Nigeria. Five bell pepper cultivated fields were randomly selected and a total of 300 soil samples were collected and assayed for soil nematodes. The soil samples were collected using a soil auger at 0-15 cm depth, and roots were collected by the use of sterilized kitchen knife simultaneously for the isolation of nematode. The modified sieve plate method was employed for the extraction of nematodes. Nematode identification was carried out using a pictorial key. A total of 2,220 nematodes from 11 genera were reported in this study, among which 1,290 (58.1%) were recovered during the rainy season while the dry season showed 930 (41.9%) nematodes. Nematode population vary significantly between seasons in soil (P = .13) and roots of bell pepper (P = 3.90), with Heterodera species having higher density (1.44 and 1.03) during the rainy and dry seasons respectively in the soil. High density of Meloidogyne (0.97) was recorded during the rainy season and Radopholus spp (1.40) during the dry season in the root of bell pepper plant. The study showed that seasonal variations impacted on nematode population abundance in fields, establishing that nematodes are responsive to every unsteady condition of the soil environment resulting from seasonal disparity, and only species who adapt rapidly survive. Farmers should increase crop cultivation during the rainy season to boost yield, as nematodes population decline as rainfall increases.

The main objective of the study was to estimate the potential average annual soil loss from Kadalundi river basin using RUSLE model and to prepare the spatial distribution map of soil erosion hazard using GIS to suggest suitable soil conservation and management measures for the basin. The individual factor maps for each factor in the RUSLE equation were prepared and multiplied in raster calculator to obtain the spatial distribution map of soil erosion with the help of ArcGIS. The daily rainfall data, basic soil data, Digital Elevation Model (DEM) and satellite imageries were used as the input data for the calculation of rainfall erosivity factor, soil erodibility factor, topographic factor, cover management factor and conservation practice factor. The results indicated an average annual erosion of 5.48 t·ha-1·yr-1 in the basin during the period of 2001 to 2021. The total quantity of soil washed away from the basin was 694836.60 t·yr-1. The estimated values of R-factor ranged from 938.97 MJ·mm·ha-1·h-1·yr-1 to 1102.65 MJ·mm·ha-1·h-1·yr-1, and the computed erodibility factor values varied between 0.0075 to 0.025 t·h·MJ⁻1·mm⁻1. The topographic factor value of the basin was found between 0 to 9.07. The basin had C-factor values of 0.08 to 1.10 and the P-factor values varied from 0.1 to 1. The spatial distribution map of erosion suggest that major part of the basin is under slight erosion class and only a minor part is under very severe erosion class. Areas in the very severe erosion class is characterised by moderate to steep slopes, or in other words areas with less slope is having slight erosion. As most of the area of the basin is having slight erosion, simple agronomical measures can be adopted for the mitigation purposes.

A field experiment was conducted in farmer’s field in north Kuttanad during the kharif season during June-July 2023 and repeated consecutively during August-September 2023 to evaluate the efficacy of open water culture with respect to yield and growth attributes of amaranthus cultivation against deep water culture hydroponics with and without water hyacinth as medium. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Design (CRD), comprising six treatments with four replications. The treatments were T1: Open water culture without medium, T2: Open water culture with medium, T3: Hydroponics without medium, T4: Hydroponics with medium, T5: Land cultivation with a bed of water hyacinth alone as medium and T6: Control: soil culture-KAU-POP recommended dose of nutrients. The data revealed significant differences in plant height, number of leaves, leaf length and width, leaf area index, stem girth, root length and yield. Maximum plant height was recorded in T6 (Control- soil culture-Kerala Agricultural University (KAU) -POP recommended dose of nutrients) followed by T5 (Land cultivation with a bed of water hyacinth alone as medium). Highest leaf area index, stem girth and root length were in T6, but was on par with T5. The yield of the total harvest was significantly higher in T6, but was on par with T5, which proves the efficacy of water hyacinth as a growing medium for amaranthus cultivation. The lowest yield and growth attributes were recorded by T1 (Open water culture without medium) and T3 (Hydroponics without medium).

The cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) is a cash crop of great economic importance to some cocoa-growing countries. However, diseases and pests, including black pod disease caused by Phytophthora megakarya, can cause yield losses of up to 100% if no phytosanitary treatment is applied. Thus, the aim of the present study is to evaluate the tolerance of five cocoa hybrids developed by IRAD (PA107*SNK614, IMC67*SNK109, SCA12*SNK16, IMC67*SNK64 and T79/501*SNK64) against black pod disease in relation to the parent clones.  Mature pods (approximately 5 months old) were harvested and used to assess black pod tolerance using the Iwaro Detached Pod Test (DPT-SM).  Means were separated using the general linear model (GLM) and ranked using the Student Newman-Keuls multiple comparison test (SNK).  ANOVA showed a significant difference at P=0.01 on tolerance between hybrids and P=0.001 on tolerance between hybrids and clonal groups. 40% of the hybrids tested were more tolerant than all the clonal groups.  The IMC clonal group was the most tolerant of the six clonal groups tested and ranked third overall between hybrids and clonal groups tested. Although the tolerance score varied between hybrids of clones PA107*SNK614 was the most tolerant (0.79) and T75/501*SNK 64 being least tolerant (2.00), all of these hybrids of clones possesses real potential to the tolerant to the black pod disease.
On the Structure of Nonastannide Clusters in Liquid and Solid State
Authors: Rosdahl Jan , Fässler Thomas F. , Kloo Lars
Published: June 2005

The nonastannide clusters have been investigated usingEXAFS, NMR and Raman spectroscopy as well as quantum chemical calculations explicitly considering a model cationic field and solid‐state statistics. NMR spectroscopic andEXAFS results are basically identical to those previously published and consistent with a fluctional model of the cluster. The quantum chemical calculations show that there is no significant difference in energy between the two model geometries, C4v and D3h, and that the vibrational frequencies are very low, clearly indicating that the cluster is expected to be fluctional. The solid‐state statistics show that both model geometries can be used to describe all known nonastannide structures with reasonable success, illustrating that the classification of the nonastannide clusters in terms of specific symmetries is entirely arbitrary.

The formation of complex species between lead and TAPSO, a commercialized biological buffer, was evidenced and discussed. Formation constants of Pb(TAPSO)x(OH)y system have been studied by direct current polarography and by glass electrode potentiometry at fixed total–ligand and total–metal concentration ratio and varied pH, at 25.0 °C and ionic strength set to 0.1 M KNO3. The graphic analysis revealed to be a very powerful tool in the prediction and refinement operations of Pb–(TAPSO)x(OH)y system. The proposed final model for this system is: PbL, PbL2, PbL2(OH) and PbL2(OH)2, with stability constants values, as log β, of 3.7±0.1, 6.6±0.1, 12.9±0.1 and 17.8±0.1, respectively.
Scaffold mesh size affects the osteoblastic differentiation of seeded marrow stromal cells cultured in a flow perfusion bioreactor

Published: June 2005

In this study, we cultured marrow stromal cells on titanium fiber meshes in a flow perfusion bioreactor and examined the effect of altering scaffold mesh size on cell behavior in an effort to develop a bone tissue construct composed of a scaffold, osteogenic cells, and extracellular matrix. Scaffolds of differing mesh size, that is, distance between fibers, were created by altering the diameter of the mesh fibers (20 or 40 μm) while maintaining a constant porosity. These scaffolds had a porosity of 80% and mesh sizes of 65 μm (20‐μm fibers) or 119 μm (40‐μm fibers). Cell/scaffold constructs were grown in static culture or under flow for up to 16 days and assayed for osteoblastic differentiation. Cellularity was higher at early time points and Ca2+ deposition was higher at later time points for flow constructs over static controls. The 20‐μm mesh had reduced cellularity in static culture. Under flow conditions, mass transport limitations are mitigated allowing uniform cell growth throughout the scaffold, and there was no difference in cellularity between mesh types. There was greater alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, osteopontin levels, and calcium under flow at 8 days for the 40‐μm mesh compared to the 20‐μm mesh. However, by day 16, the trend was reversed, suggesting the time course of differentiation was dependent on scaffold mesh size under flow conditions. However, this dependence was not linear with respect to time; larger mesh size was conducive to early osteoblast differentiation while smaller mesh size was conducive to later differentiation and matrix deposition. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
