Authors: Müller Elza Terezinha Cordeiro , Dutra Ana Tieli , Castoldi Martina
Published: July 2017

Atualmente todas as empresas que estão desempenhando regularmente suas atividades, independente do porte, têm como principal desafio, a obtenção de lucros associada a uma elevada carga tributária. Cada atividade econômica possui legislações especificas de tributações, e cabe à contabilidade interpretá-las bem como reduzir os custos da indústria por meio da elisão fiscal, sabe-se que constantemente ocorrem alterações nas alíquotas dos impostos, consequentemente aumentando os custos das indústrias. Diante desse contexto o objetivo dessa pesquisa foi verificar e comparar dentro de um planejamento tributário, quais são os meios de aplicação da Substituição Tributária menos oneroso nas vendas de cervejas artesanais em diferentes situações; objetivando identificar entre os principais Estados que a Cervejaria Insana realiza vendas, quais são viáveis a solicitação de pauta fiscal. Para isso, desenvolveu-se uma pesquisa bibliográfica para embasar os principais conceitos, e posteriormente elaborou-se uma tabela comparativa, composta por preços de vendas praticados pela indústria em questão, bem como sugestões e preços praticados pelo mercado. Conclui-se que com exceção do Paraná, nenhum outro Estado é viável a solicitação da pauta fiscal, entretanto é necessário ressalvar que em alguns casos é obrigatório e em outros a diferença é quase irrelevante.

Authors: Diefenthäle Andressa Tais , Avi Peterson Cleyton
Published: July 2017

Observando aspectos relacionados a Termodinâmica, o relato do experimento prático realizado refere-se ao processo de resfriamento da água quente em quatro tipos de ampolas de vidro, diferenciadas pela presença ou ausência de vácuo e espelhamento. Com os dados obtidos no experimento, objetivou-se encontrar a equação da curva característica deste resfriamento em cada recipiente, a partir da resolução do Problema Inverso via método de Procura em Rede. Para validação dos modelos matemáticos elaborados, foi realizada uma comparação com as soluções obtidas na resolução do Problema Direto, considerando a Lei de Resfriamento de Newton. Através da análise comparativa dos resultados, evidenciou-se a eficiência do método de Procura em Rede para a situação explorada, pois obteve-se elevados coeficientes de determinação e os resultados se mostraram coerentes com os dados experimentais e com a solução do Problema Direto. O método de Procura em Rede foi escolhido devido à facilidade de compreensão e implementação computacional, assim como a viabilidade na obtenção de até três parâmetros; entretanto, para um número maior de parâmetros, este método seria inviável, por ser exaustivo e demandar tempo de simulação. Além disso, com os experimentos e procedimentos matemáticos realizados, foi possível verificar que a ampola com melhor desempenho, dentre as testadas, é a fabricada em vidro com vácuo e espelhada.

Authors: Mendonça Álvaro , Sousa Fernando Ruivo de , Fernandes António José , Carvalho Marta , Neto Inácio , Gomes Sandra
Published: July 2017

O estudo teve como objetivos: identificar o perfil do consumidor de queijo de cabra transmontano, os seus hábitos de consumo, e comparar as características de três queijos com diferentes tempos de cura (2, 7 e 12 meses). Para atingir estes objetivos desenvolveu-se um estudo exploratório baseado numa amostra aleatória de 157 consumidores que se deslocaram a um supermercado de Bragança nos dias 28 e 29 de maio de 2015. Para proceder à recolha de dados foi utilizado um questionário com questões acerca das características do consumidor, da frequência do consumo de queijo e das características sensoriais (aspeto, aroma, sabor, teor de gordura, textura ou dureza, teor de sal) dos três queijos. Os dados recolhidos foram tratados no SPSS 22.0 com recurso ao uso da estatística descritiva com o objetivo de caracterizar a amostra e, consequentemente, definir o perfil do consumidor. Utilizou-se, ainda, o teste de Friedman para verificar se existiam diferenças, estatisticamente, significativas entre os três queijos com diferentes tempos de cura. A maioria dos participantes consome queijo mais de uma vez por semana (86,5%), era do género masculino (51,6%); tinha idades compreendidas entre 25 e 64 anos (67,9%); era casado (53,0%; vivia em agregados familiares com duas pessoas (30,3%); e, o rendimento líquido do agregado familiar situava-se entre 1001 a 3000 € (30,3%). Os resultados permitiram identificar diferenças com significância de 1% em todas as características consideradas com exceção do teor de sal. Relativamente ao aspeto, aroma e sabor, o queijo com menos tempo de cura foi o preferido, razão pela qual a avaliação global deste queijo tenha sido melhor. Por essa razão, a intenção de compra vai, naturalmente, para o queijo com menos tempo de cura. Relativamente à textura ou dureza, é o queijo com mais cura que, na opinião dos consumidores, é o mais duro.
Preliminary results of water quality assessment using phytoplankton and physicochemical approaches in the Huai River Basin, China
Authors: Chen Hao , Zuo Qi-ting , Zhang Yong-yong
Published: July 2017

Water pollution has been a significant issue in the Huai River Basin (HRB) of China since the late 1970s. In July and December 2013, two field investigations were carried out at 10 sites along the main streams of the basin. The monitoring indices contained both physicochemical variables and the structure and composition of phytoplankton communities. The correlations between communities and physicochemical variables were analyzed using cluster analysis and redundancy analysis. Moreover, water quality was evaluated using the comprehensive nutrition state index (TLI) and Shannon-Wiener diversity index (H). Results indicated that more phytoplankton species were present in December than in July, but total density was less in December. Phytoplankton communities in the midstream of the Shaying River were affected by the same physicochemical factors throughout the year, but ammonia nitrogen and total phosphorus had the greatest influence on these sites in July and December, respectively. The water pollution status of the sampling sites was much greater in the Shaying River midstream than at other sites. TLI was more suitable than H for assessing water quality in the study area. These results provide valuable information for policy makers and stakeholders in water quality assessment, water ecosystem restoration, and sustainable basin management in the HRB.

Published: July 2017

Background:

HTLV1 is a retrovirus that infects CD4-positive cells and leads to Adult T-cell leukemia
by constitutive activation of nuclear factor kappa B. Ascorbic acid (AA) is an essential nutrient that possess
anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic activity against a number of malignant cell lines. This study delineates the
effect of AA on Tax protein expression as well as NF-κB and MMP9 activity in two HTLV1-positive leukemia
cells (HuT-102 and C91-PL).

Methods:

The cytotoxic and antiproliferative effect of AA were studied by LDH release and MTT tests, respectively.
The proteins expression level was assessed by western blotting. RT-PCR was used to study mRNAs
level. Finally, ELISA/EMSA and Zymography were used to evaluate NF-κB and MMP-9 activities, respectively.

Results:

Cell lines were treated with non-cytotoxic concentrations of AA for 48h and 96h, which resulted in a
significant inhibition of proliferation at a concentration of 50µg/ml at 96h in both cell lines. The same concentration
inhibited Tax protein expression as well as the NF-κB nuclearization and DNA binding activity. The
inhibitory effect of AA on MMP9 protein expression and activity started at 100µg/ml and 50µg/ml in HuT-102
and C91-PL cells respectively, with no effect at the transcriptional levels of MMP-9 in either one of the two cell
lines.

Conclusion: These results indicated that while AA exerted its anti-proliferative effect on the NF- κB activation
pathway by suppressing Tax expression, its effects on MMP9 seemed to be independent of this mechanism and
follow a different approach.
Anethole Inhibits the Proliferation of Human Prostate Cancer Cells via Induction of Cell Cycle Arrest and Apoptosis
Authors: Elkady Ayman I.
Published: July 2017

Background:

Prostate cancer-associated mortality is increasing at an alarming rate, which highlights
the inevitability for unearthing novel agent for the management of this disease. Anethole, a major constituent of
Foeniculum vulgare (fennel) essential oil, is widely used in folk medicine; it possesses anti-oxidant, antiinflammatory,
anti-proliferative and tumoricidal potentialities.

Objective:

The current research was conducted to assess the impact of anethole on prostate cancer cell line, PC-
3, and to delineate the molecular mechanism of action.

Methods:

To achieve this aim, the growth-inhibitory effect of anethole was evaluated by MTT assay. Apoptotic
death and cell cycle analyses were assessed by flow cytometry and alterations in gene expression were investigated
by qPCR and Western blot analyses.

Results:

The observations indicated that anethole inhibited proliferation, clonal growth and migration of PC-3
cells. It also suppressed growth of PC-3 derived cancer stem cells (tumorspheres). Pro-apoptotic potential of
anethole was accompanied by generation of ROS, permeabilization of the mitochondrial and lysosomal membranes,
activation of caspase-3 and -9, DNA damage, PARP cleavage and induction of Bax/Bcl-2 protein ratio.
Further, anethole induced G2/M phase arrest, downregulation of cyclins D1, CDK-4 and c-Myc proteins and
upregulation of p21 and p27. Anethole suppressed nuclear localization of NF-κB protein and downregulated
transcription of NF-κB-dependent genes.

Conclusion:

Overall, the above findings highlight the effectiveness of anethole as a potential candidate for
prostate cancer therapy.
Relationship between Capillary Refill Time at Triage and Abnormal Clinical Condition: A Prospective Study
Authors: Sansone Claudia M. , Prendin Fabiano , Giordano Greta , Casati Paola , Destrebecq Anne , Terzoni Stefano
Published: July 2017

Background:

Capillary refill time has been studied in literature as a perfusion indicator. Two pilot studies have proposed possible reference values in healthy adults. No data exist regarding capillary refill time as an indicator of abnormal clinical conditions in adults, which might be of help for triage nurses.

Objective:

We wanted to assess if any relationships existed, between altered capillary refill time and abnormal clinical conditions in the emergency department. We investigated relations between capillary refill time and vital signs recorded in triage and blood tests, by analyzing the clinical records. Mortality at 24 hours, 7 days and over 14 days was investigated by calling the patients after discharge.

Method:

Observational, single-center study on a sample of consecutive patients aged ≥ 18 years in the Emergency Department of a major Milan hospital, from June to October 2014. Multivariate logistic regression was used to investigate the impact of clinical variables on capillary refill time.

Results:

1001 patients were enrolled, aged 59 ± 21 (473 aged 65 or more). Longer refill times were found in patients admitted to hospital units after medical consultations in the emergency department compared to those discharged or sent to outpatients. In elderly patients, statistically significant association was found between increased capillary refill time and sepsis (sensitivity 100%, specificity 83.33%, area under the receiver operating characteristics curve 65.95% CI 47-83), oxygen saturation, mean blood pressure, and lactates. In persons aged 45 to 64, altered refill times were associated with abnormal values of glicemia, platelets, and urea.

Conclusion:

Capillary refill time can be used by nurses at triage as a complementary parameter to normal vital signs. This is one of the few studies investigating refill time in adult patients.
Predictions of Diffuse Pollution by the HSPF Model and the Back‐Propagation Neural Network Model
Authors: Chang Chia‐Ling , Li Meng‐Yuan
Published: July 2017

Watershed models are important tools for predicting the possible change of watershed responses. Environmental models comprise the deterministic model and the probabilistic model. This study discusses the Hydrological Simulation Program Fortran (HSPF) and the Back‐Propagation Neural Network (BPNN); these two models represent the deterministic model and the probabilistic model, respectively. As the properties of the two models are distinct, they have differing abilities to predict surface‐runoff pollution. For the two models, the runoff simulation results are satisfactory. However, due to the limitation of the water quality monitoring records, pollution simulation is more difficult than runoff simulation. The results indicate that the prediction accuracy in the pollution simulation can be improved by adjusting the BPNN neurons. On the contrary, improving the prediction accuracy is limited by HSPF. Although the flexibility of BPNN is higher than HSPF, sufficient historical monitoring records are important for both of these models.

Authors: Khalid Mehwish , Hashmi Imran , Khan Sher Jamal
Published: July 2017

Membrane technology, being the most emerging wastewater treatment option, has gained substantial importance with the massive objective of the reuse potential of wastewater. Keeping this in view, the present study was conducted with the rationale to evaluate the performance efficiency of membrane‐based septic tank (MBST), and its reuse perspective for irrigating crops. The septic tank was designed by submerging a woven fiber microfiltration membrane module to treat domestic wastewater. Three crops Triticum aestivum (wheat), Coriandrum sativum (coriander), and Mentha arvensis (mint) were selected to be irrigated with treated MBST effluent, untreated wastewater, and tap water (as a control) for comparative growth analysis. Two pathogenic strains, Escherichia coli and Salmonella sp. were selected as reference microbes and their translocation rate was observed in root, shoot, and leaves. Upon maturity, the roots, shoots, and leaves of the above‐mentioned plants were aseptically removed for microbiological analysis. Strains were analyzed, using analytical profile index and PCR analysis. Maximum removal efficiencies for MBST in terms of chemical oxygen demand (COD), turbidity, nutrients deduction (phosphorus), and indicator bacteria (Escherichia coli) were found to be 73, 96, 48, and 88%, respectively. Significant bacterial load reduction (p < 0.001) in terms of E. coli (3.8 log CFU/100 mL) and helminths (2 eggs/L) was observed in treated water. High plant yield was observed when irrigated with treated water as compared to tap water, as minimal nutrient removal (48%) was recorded in treated water, with the germination percentage of 88.8%.

Current Status of Postdoctoral and Graduate Programs in Dentistry
Authors: Assael Leon
Published: July 2017

Advanced dental education has evolved in the context of societal needs and economic trends to its current status. Graduate programs have positioned their role in the context of health systems and health science education trends in hospitals, interprofessional clinical care teams, and dental schools and oral health care systems. Graduate dental education has been a critical factor in developing teams in trauma care, craniofacial disorders, pediatric and adult medicine, and oncology. The misalignment of the mission of graduate dental programs and the demands of private practice has posed a challenge in the evolution of programs as educational programs have been directed towards tertiary and indigent care while the practice community focuses on largely healthy affluent patients for complex clinical interventions. Those seeking graduate dental education today are smaller in number and include more international dental graduates than in the past. Graduate dental education in general dentistry and in the nine recognized dental specialties now includes Commission on Dental Accreditation (CODA) recognition of training standards as part of its accreditation process and a CODA accreditation process for areas of clinical education not recognized as specialties by the American Dental Association. Current types of programs include fellowship training for students in recognized specialties. This article was written as part of the project “Advancing Dental Education in the 21st Century.”
Clinical and Community‐Based Education in U.S. Dental Schools
Authors: Licari Frank W. , Evans Caswell A.
Published: July 2017

This review of U.S. dental schools’ clinical curricula suggests that the basic structure of clinical education has not changed significantly in the past 60 years, although important developments include the introduction of competency‐based education and community‐based clinical education. Most dental schools still have a two‐year preclinical curriculum and a two‐year clinical curriculum, and most schools still operate a large clinical facility where students receive the bulk of their clinical education and assessment for graduation. In those clinics, dental students are the main providers of patient treatment, with faculty serving in supervisory roles. In addition, a major portion of the entire dental curriculum continues to be dedicated to student education on the restoration of a single tooth or replacement of teeth. This article was written as part of the project “Advancing Dental Education in the 21st Century.”
Trends in Oral Diseases in the U.S. Population
Authors: Rozier R. Gary , White B. Alexander , Slade Gary D.
Published: July 2017

This article reviews trends in dental caries, periodontal disease, and tooth loss for the United States along with population dynamics and risk factors that might influence these trends going forward. Dental caries experience remains high in the primary dentition. Caries severity in permanent teeth of children has declined to historically low levels, and long‐standing inequalities in untreated caries appear to be narrowing. Declines in caries severity of children's permanent teeth have stabilized at a low level, but likely will contribute to future reductions in dental caries severity in adults. The prevalence of periodontal disease is high in adults, and only a small percentage have severe forms of the disease. Countervailing trends in determinants would suggest little change in the prevalence of periodontal disease in the future, but the lack of an obvious trend over the last two decades makes projections uncertain. Tooth loss as a consequence of dental disease has declined markedly over the last half century and has been all but eliminated in high‐income groups. However, notable exceptions to these favorable trends are evident. Progress in prevention policies and programs that affect disease experience appears slower than progress in meeting population‐level caries treatment needs. Clearly, long‐standing inequities related to political and social determinants remain for all dental diseases, and income disparities in dental disease are widening for some indicators. Growing inequalities raise ethical and public health concerns that should be prominent in discussions of dental workforce needs and strategies for the next 25 years. This article was written as part of the project “Advancing Dental Education in the 21st Century.”
Dental Education Required for the Changing Health Care Environment
Authors: Fontana Margherita , González-Cabezas Carlos , de Peralta Tracy , Johnsen David C.
Published: July 2017

To be able to meet the demands for care in 2040, dental graduates will need to address challenges resulting from the rapidly changing health care environment with knowledge and sets of skills to build on current standards and adapt to the future. The purposes of this article are to 1) analyze key challenges likely to evolve considerably between now and 2040 that will impact dental education and practice and 2) propose several sets of skills and educational outcomes necessary to address these challenges. The challenges discussed include changes in prevalence of oral diseases, dental practice patterns, materials and technologies, integrated medical‐dental care, role of electronic health records, cultural competence, integrated curricula, interprofessional education, specialty‐general balance, and web/cloud‐based collaborations. To meet these challenges, the dental graduate will need skills such as core knowledge in basic and clinical dentistry, technical proficiency, critical thinking skills for lifelong learning, ethical and professional values, ability to manage a practice, social responsibility, and ability to function in a collegial intra‐ and interprofessional setting. Beyond the skills of the individual dentist will be the need for leadership in academia and the practice community. Academic and professional leaders will need to engage key constituencies to develop strategic directions and agendas with all parties pointed toward high standards for individual patients and the public at large.

Patung Tau Tau  di Toraja, Sulawesi Selatan merupakan salah satu karya seni yang tergolong dalam karya seni ritual. PatungTau Tau  adalah replika dari masyarakat Toraja yang meninggal dunia.Patung  Tau Tau  sebagai karya seni ritual, oleh karena Patung Tau Tau erat kaitannya dengan proses ritual keagamaan. Dalam kepercayaan suku adat Toraja (Aluk Todolo),  Tau Tau  bukan melambangkan badan atau raga almarhum, melainkan simbol roh atau spirit sang almarhum yang tidak ikut mati, tetapi melanjutkan kehidupan lain di  alam berikutnya sesudah kematian. Kehadiran seni dalam ritual agama, menjadi satu kesatuan yang akrab, sebagaimana kegiatan itu disamping pengalaman keimanan, sekaligus juga pengalaman estetis. Berdasarkan pemahaman bahwa  manusia berfikir, berperasaan, dan bersikap dalam ungkapan-ungkapan simbolis,sebagaimana Susanne Knauth Langer (1895-1985) yang pernah menjadi murid Ernest Cassirer,  bahwa simbolisme merupakan ciri khas bagi manusia yang dengan terang membedakannya dengan hewan.

Does pay for performance work in public organizations? Empirical evidence from Italy
Authors: Fabrizi Michele , Pilonato Silvia
Published: July 2017

The purpose of the paper is to investigate the relationship between pay-for-performance compensation and organisational performance in the setting of Italian local governments. Pay-for-performance systems have been introduced in the majority of the OECD’s countries as part of their performance management systems, but research on their effects is still in its infancy. This study contributes to filling this gap by using a sample of Italian local governments to empirically determine whether variable compensation translates into higher future performance.
The research methodology uses a unique hand-collected database. The study uses the measures of the local governments’ performance defined along six key dimensions (standard of living, services and environment, employment level, law and order, population, leisure), over the period 2010-2013, provided by an independent source. Detailed data on managers’ compensation for each local government is obtained from Italy’s Treasury Department, and other variables on local governments were hand collected by official documents. A multivariate analysis is conducted on 398 observations.
The main results show a positive association between future performance and the percentage of variable compensation granted to local managers. Moreover, additional analyses show that this result is not driven by managers’ total compensation but it depends on the composition of managers’ compensation. Overall, empirical evidence reported in this study suggests that public organisations might benefit from the introduction of pay for performance systems.

The aim of this study was to assess a panel of 17 microsatellites for
parentage verification and individual identification in the endangered Balkan
donkey breed. Allele frequencies for 17 microsatellite loci (AHT4, AHT5,
ASB2, ASB17, ASB23, CA425, HTG4, HTG6, HTG7, HTG10, HMS1, HMS2, HMS3, HMS6,
HMS7, LEX3 and VHL20) were determined in a 77 unrelated Balkan donkeys. Three
loci (ASB2, HMS1 and ASB17) proved to be unsuitable and had been excluded
from the investigation. Analysis of the remaining 14 loci revealed varied
levels of polymorphism (three to 12 alleles), while the total number of
observed alleles was 118 with an average of 8.42 per locus. Average values of
observed heterozygosity and polymorphic information content (PIC) were 0.712
and 0.650, respectively. Twelve out of 14 microsatellite markers were highly
informative with PIC values higher than 0.5. Only four loci were in HWE
(HMS2, HMS6, HMS7 and HTG6). The obtained value of combined power of
exclusion (0.9999) confirms usefulness of this microsatellite panel for
parentage verification, while the value of combined power of discrimination
of 0.9941 clearly approves the reliability of the panel for individual
identification in Balkan donkeys.

Authors: Sharifova Saida , Mehdiyeva Sabina , Abbasov Mehraj
Published: July 2017

Inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers were used for variation analysis
among 41 tomato accessions. A total of 50 scorable bands were obtained, where
32 were polymorphic, representing 63.3% of all the amplified loci.
Polymorphism percentage ranged from 50 to 90% and an average number of
polymorphic bands of 4.0 were observed. An average genetic diversity index
was 0.61. Primer UBC860 and UBC825 generated the greatest diversity index
with a value of 0.89 and 0.85 respectively. The smallest diversity identified
by primer UBC808, with an index of 0.34. The genetic similarity among studied
genotypes ranged from 0.52 to 0.98. The cluster analysis based on Jaccard?s
similarity coefficient divided genotypes into 6 distinct clusters on a value
of 0.74. The lowest genetic distance was found between ?Gronastiy? and
?AG1224? (0.52), ?Orange? and ?AG1224? (0.54), and ?Evgeniya? and ?AG1224?
(0.55) accessions. The highest similarity of 0.98 was determined between
?Zafar? and ?Azerbaijan-94?, ?Khachmaz-1? and ?Azerbaijan-94?, ?Khachmaz-1?
and ?Severyanka?, and ?Shakar? and ?Absheron-1? accessions.

Breast cancer is the neoplasm with the highest incidence and mortality among
women in Lithuania. The aim of the study was to determine the mutational
incidence in BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes in high-risk breast and/or ovarian cancer
families. After written informed consent, 36 participants from Lithuanian
health science university hospital provided a blood sample for genetic
analysis. Molecular diagnostics was done for 6 BRCA1and BRCA2 mutations. From
36 tested subjects for BRCA1/BRCA2 mutations. Positive test for BRCA1/BRCA2
mutations test was found in 12 (33%) cases. Most common BRCA1 mutation was
5328insC - 6 (50%) cases, other mutations: 185delAG - 1 (8,3%), 300t>6(c61G)
- 4 (33,3%), 4153 del A - 1 (8,3%). All mutations were BRCA1, but none of the
women were positive for the analyzed BRCA2 mutation. The mean age when the
cancer was diagnosed in BRCA1 mutations group was 40.40?3.39 comparing with
the group without mutations - 43.29 ?2.52. Rates of BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation
testing are increasing in young women with breast and ovarian cancer.
Detected mutations in BRCA1 contribute to up to one-third of the families
with breast and ovarian cancer in Lithuania.
Secondary associations in ‘Himalayan pink’ (Dianthus angulatus Royle ex Benth., Caryophyllaceae) from cold deserts of Lahaul-Spiti
Authors: Kumar Puneet , Singhal Vijay , Srivastava Sunil
Published: July 2017

In current investigation we studied the male meiosis and details of secondary
chromosomal associations or pairing recorded for the first time in Dianthus
angulatus Royle ex Benth., from the cold deserts of Lahaul-Spiti (Himachal
Pradesh, India). All the presently studied individuals of the species
existed at 2x level (x = 15). The present chromosome count of n = 15 in the
species is in conformity with the previous counts from India and outside of
India. Secondary associations are defined as the affinity of bivalents to be
positioned in pairs having gentle connections. The secondary chromosomal
associations in the species existed among bivalents/chromosomes were
observed in the meiocytes at metaphase-I and continued till the
metaphase-II. The bivalents positioned side by side and end to end to form
secondary pairing. The difference in the number of bivalents/chromosomes
involved in the secondary associations has also been witnessed. A secondary
association between bivalents is considered to be of immense importance as
it is being taken as a gauge of ploidy in plants. The incidence of such
secondary associations of bivalents/chromosomes in D. angulatus which
existed at 2x level indicated the secondary polyploid nature of the species.
Horse chestnut pollen quality
Authors: Calic Dusica , Radojevic Ljiljana
Published: July 2017

Pollen quality of horse chestnut, expressed as pollen productivity, viability
and germination was studied. Anthers of horse chestnut genotypes had pollen
production from 3.66 to 5.06 x 103 pollen grains per anther, depending of
genotype. Also, pollen of horse chestnut Ah1-Ah4 genotypes showed different
viability (from 56 to 68%), after staining with fluorescein diacetate.
Pollen germination of Ah1-Ah4 genotypes varied from 50-66% on basic medium.
Inclusion of polyethylene glycol-PEG from 10%, 15% and 20% v/w increased
pollen germination. The best results were achieved on medium with the
largest PEG concentration. On these medium 76-91% pollen grains were
germinated, depending of genotype. The best pollen quality, for all tested
parameters, had genotype Ah2. Knowledge about morphology, production,
viability, in vitro germination, tube growth as well as pollen: ovule ratio
can be of great importance for future pollen biology studies.
Sources of resistance to races R0 and R1 of Pseudomonas syringae PV. tomato - agent of bacterial speck on tomato
Authors: Ganeva Daniela , Bogatzevska Nevena
Published: July 2017

Tomato breeding lines with fruit colour different from the traditional red
colour were studied in order to search for sources of resistance to races R0
and R1 of Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato. As a result of selection of
healthy plants with hypersensitive response (HR), the resistance was
stabilized and perspective lines gene-carriers of resistance to bacterial
speck were chosen. Lines L1078 and L1083 with brown-red (black) coloured
fruits and line L1130 with purple-red fruits possess a complex resistance to
races R0 and R1. It was established that two of the lines with rose-coloured
tomato fruits (L1088 and L584) were resistant to race 1 of P. syringae pv.
tomato. These lines possessed valuable economic and morphological characters
and they could be used in combinative and heterosis breeding for development
of resistance to bacterial speck varieties.
