Application of principal component analysis in developing statistical models to forecast crop yield using weather variables
Authors: YADAV RR , SISODIA BVS , KUMAR SUNIL
Published: May 2022

Application of principal component analysis in developing statistical models for forecasting crop yield has been demonstrated. The time series data on wheat yield and weekly weather variables, viz., Minimum and maximum temperature, Relative Humidity, Wind- Velocity and Sun-Shine hours pertaining to the period 1990 to 2010 in Faizabad district of Uttar Pradesh have been used in this study. Weather indices have been constructed using weekly data on weather variables (Agrawal et al., 1983). Four models have been developed using principal component analysis as regressor variables including time trend and wheat yield as regressand. The model 1 and 3 have been found to be most appropriate on the basis of R2adj, percent deviation of forecast, RMSE (%) and PSE for the forecast of wheat yield two months before the harvest of the crop.

Published: May 2022

The experiment was conducted at two zones of the Punjab state (i.e., Central plain zone, Ludhiana and South-Western zone, Bathinda) to study the phenological behaviour of wheat cultivars under different environments. The two wheat varieties, viz., V1: PBW 343 and V2: PBW 621, were evaluated under three sowing dates (D1: November 15, D2: November 25 and D3: December 5) and four irrigation levels I1 (irrigation at CRI, Jointing and Milking), I2 (irrigation at CRI, Tillering, Booting and Milking), I3 (irrigation at CRI, Tillering, Jointing, Booting and Milking) and I4 (irrigation according to weather forecast) during rabi 2011-12. The Growing Degree Days (GDD), Heliothermal units (HTU), Photo thermal units (PTU) and Heat use efficiency (HUE) were calculated. It was found that the wheat crop sown in central zone i.e., Ludhiana station acquired more number of days to reach physiological maturity and utilize heat more efficiently resulting in more grain yield as compared to south western zone i.e., Bathinda station grown wheat crop. The results also showed that the variety PBW 621 took significantly less time for initiation and completion of the various phenological stages than PBW 343. PBW 621 acquired less growing degree days, heliothermal units and photothermal units but was more efficient user of heat as compared to the variety PBW 343. The number of days required to attain different phenological stages decreased with late sowing condition. Irrigation levels failed to produce significant difference for days required for initiation and completion of various growth stages of crop as well as heat unit requirements for occurrence of the phenological events. It is concluded that timely sown crop exhibit best growth and yield as the favourable environmental conditions coincided with heat unit requirement of different phenophases of wheat in the central zone of Punjab.

Perubahan hukum Islam dalam banyak hal erat kaitannya dengan disiplin ushul fiqh, yang menjadi dalil dan dasar berijtihad. Mazhab shahabi merupakan dalil para ulama hukum fiqh untuk mengatasi permasalahan yang ada di kalangan umat Islam. Mazhab shahabi berarti pendapat seorang sahabat, dan pendapat itu menyebar ke sahabat lain tanpa ada sahabat yang menentangnya. Mazhab shahabi adalah salah satu dari referensi aturan Islam dari zaman Tabi’in. Di kalangan ulama berbeda pendapat mengenai kehujjahan mazhab shahabi. Imam Malik, Ar-Razi, Hanafiyyah, Asy-Syafi’i dengan Qaul Qadimnya serta Ahmad bin Hanbal menerima Mazhab shahabi menjadi hujjah. Asya`irah, Mu`tazilah, Asy Syafi`i  dengan Qaul Jadidnya, Ulama Syi`ah, ulama Al Karkhi, Madzhab Maliki, Hanafi, dan Ibn Hazm  menolak mazhab shahabi sebagai hujjah. Seperti pembahasan lainnya, Mazhab shahabi dapat menjadi sumber berita terbaru.

High throughput screening in an in vitro infection model of tularemia to identify novel antibiotics and immunotheraputics.
Authors: Sikorsky Kristen D , Sako Anthony P , Horzempa Joseph
Published: May 2022

Francisella tularensis is a pathogenic coccobacillus endemic to North America and is classified by the United States government as a Tier 1 bioterrorism agent. The intentional release of antibiotic-resistant strains of F. tularensis could be disastrous. Since a vaccine against F. tularensis licensed for human use does not exist, we are substantially vulnerable to to this pathogen. However, the development of new therapeutics that target tularemia will make our nation safer against a potential terror attack and naturally resistant F. tularensis. Here, we investigated a library of natural extracts to identify novel therapies that are effective against F. tularensis infections. We have previously engineered F. tularensis to express a red fluorescent protein (LVS/ pTC3D) during intracellular infection. LVS/pTC3D was used to infect THP-1 cells (a monocyte line) seeded into a 96-well plate. To identify novel antibiotics and immunomodulatory therapies, each well was treated with an extract from a cataloged natural product library. Several extracts that led to a reduction in fluorescence over time were selected for further investigation. Current investigations seek to determine whether library extracts directly inhibit bacterial growth in rich culture media (no host cells) or decrease replication in THP-1 cells through immunomodulation. Any extract that inhibited growth in both scenarios would likely be a traditional small molecule antibiotic. Extracts that ONLY inhibit intracellular bacterial growth within the THP-1 cells would likely be doing so by augmenting the host immune responses. Because these act on the host cells and not the bacterium, the potential for the development of antimicrobial resistance is eliminated.
Extraction of various hair dyes using thin layer chromatography.
Authors: Snider Marley , Flood Mark
Published: May 2022

In a forensic case, hair can be an important component in determining a victim, or a suspect involved in a crime. Hair is often one of the most abundant sources of evidence found at a crime scene. Unfortunately, hair without an attached follicle is often useless when it comes to DNA identification. Without a focus in DNA identification, there are other techniques that can be used to compare strands of hair. This experiment utilized thin layer chromatography (TLC) to distinguish between different colors of hair dye. Treated and untreated hairs were placed in test tubes of propan-1-ol. The solvent used to run the TLC plates was composed of a 20:80:1.5 mL ratio of ethyl methyl ketone, chloroform, and ammonia. Extractions from the treated hairs were spotted onto a thin layer chromatography plate. Under visible light, after one washing, the dyes separated on the TLC plates. The process was repeated again after washing the hair multiple times. The technique used confirmed that hair dye could be extracted from hair at a crime scene, as long as the treatment was fresh. The known separated dyes could be compared to similar hairs found at a crime scene.
Substrate selection of sympatric sand darters from the Elk River, WV.
Authors: Thompson Patricia , Welsh Stuart , Rizzo Austin
Published: May 2022

Ammocrypta pellucida (Eastern Sand Darter) and A. clara (Western Sand Darter) are the only sympatric sister species of Ammocrypta, and the Elk River in West Virginia is one of the few remaining places where both species occur. They are slender, sand-dwelling fish that were once broadly distributed, but have since undergone range-wide population declines, presumably owing to habitat loss. Habitat use studies have been conducted for A. pellucida, but literature on A. clara remains sparse, and is an essential element for the conservation of the species. Substrate selection was evaluated by conducting 15 laboratory trials in four aquaria. Two aquaria contained six A. clara in each, while the other two held a combination of both species, three A. pellucida and three A. clara. The sand darters were given the choice to bury into five equally available and randomly positioned substrates: fine sand (0.12-0.25 mm), medium sand (0.25-0.5 mm), coarse sand (0.5-1.0 mm), very course sand (1.0-2.0 mm), and granule gravel (2.0-4.0 mm). Ammocrypta clara primarily buried in coarse (33 %) and medium sand (28 %), followed by fine (20 %) and very coarse (19 %) sand. Ammocrypta clara selected coarse and very coarse sand more frequently than A. pellucida, while A. pellucida selected fine and medium sand more often than A. clara. Our results indicate there are substrate selection differences between the two species, though further corroboration with field surveys is needed to elucidate the variation in habitat use.

The major challenge in the analysis is that a typical sample only contains a few hundred pictograms of the amine. A C18 column and electrochemical detection was used. The eluent was an aqueous 0.06 M phosphate buffer (pH- 6.7) mixed with 10-15% methanol and an ion-pairing reagent. With this method, the amines can be detected at picogram levels. However, there are hundreds of compounds in a typical biological fluid and, in some cases, another electro-active species can co-elute with the compounds of interest. To address this problem we have developed methods to selectively remove some potentially interfering compounds by pretreating the sample by solid phase extraction (SPE). Previously, we had used weak cation SPE columns to simplify the mixture but found that the method was too time consuming. We have now developed a method that uses weak anion SPE columns. The samples were collected in a syringe preloaded with an anticoagulant, either trichloroacetic acid or formic acid. The proteins were removed by centrifuging with a 10K Da filter. The solid phase extraction followed. This pretreatment was found to be effective for selective removal many interfering peaks. DHBA (3,4-Dihydroxybenzylamine hydrobromide) was used as an internal standard.

The Scholarships in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (S-STEM) Program in the Department of Computer Science, Mathematics, and Engineering at Shepherd (grant number: DUE - 1259713) has been funded by NSF since June 2013. The overall goal of the program is to increase the number of STEM graduates by providing financial, academic, and social supports, which enables qualified students to overcome certain barriers that prevent them from meeting their educational and career goals. In fall 2015, 64 applications were received; the selection committee interviewed qualified applicants and selected 16 new awardees. In this poster, major activities for supported students are presented. Survey and report results from the last academic year, along with initiatives that increase, retain, and support students in STEM fields such as Computer Information Science, Computer Information Technology, Computer Engineering, and Mathematics, are discussed.

The Big Five Model of Personality has limited support in the field of neuroscience and challenged by low factor–criterion correlation (0.2-0.3, N=142). To overcome these limitations, we previously attempted to create an alternative model. For that model we choose the traits that were consistent with the modern ideas of brain organization and brain functioning. This model had five personality parameters 1) Fear tolerance, the ability to overcome fears and the resistance to developing them in the first place; 2) Impulse tolerance, the ability to resist immediate impulses to gratify desires or correct homeostatic imbalances; 3) Emotional tolerance, the ability to resist the effects of emotion in favor of rationality; 4) Traditional tendency, the measure of likelihood that either a traditional or novel option will hold more sway; and 5) Self-conception, the rewarding value we assign to projected outcomes. Here, we attempted to see if the new model can serve as a better predictor of behaviors, more specifically the college success. We developed a short questionnaire based on the traits proposed by the model (24 items total), asked anonymous participants attending freshman or senior classes to complete it, and evaluate the responses. We clearly recognized the piloting nature of the administrated questions and a potential impact on assessment of low inventory questionnaires, but it was immediately clear that the questions addressing personality traits had limited link to the seniority of the students. In contrast, responses of students of different seniority had been clearly dissociated every time when relevant to college success personal values and skills were evaluated (correlation 0.24-0.47, N=24, p<0.05).  Although more research is needed, the findings indicate that personal values and study skills are much better predictors of college success than personality traits.

Mental fatigue is one of the main factors which leads to performance errors. Previous studies indicated that mental fatigue can be detected using EEG. Here, we attempted to see if comparable EEG changes can be observed after an exposure to a continuing alarm sound.Eleven university students (7 males, 4 females), with ages ranging between 18•25 years, participated as volunteer subjects. The participants had no medical, psychiatric, or head injury records, or any known problems with their hearing. The subjects remained seated during the session with their eyes closed. The EEG was recorded by using an iWorx EEG System with five reusable gold cap electrodes 4mm in diameter placed on the subject’s forehead, over the right and left temporal lobes, and on the right and left parietal-occipital areas. A standard alarm sound with waves of high frequency (up to 6500Hz) was introduced to the subject for 70 seconds through noise cancelling headphones, using sound volume at or below 75 db. The frequencies and amplitudes of the alpha and beta waves were calculated using LabScribe3 software packages. After the movement artifacts and failures of electrode placement were dissected, the effect of fatigue on EEG markers was analyzed in 10 second increments, using 1- way ANOVA. The preliminary finding demonstrated great individual variability between the subjects, but did not reveal a significant effect of fatigue on the EEG markers. We postulated that fatigue has more prominent influences on theta waves which were not measured in this study. Applications of the findings are discussed.
Francisella tularensis utilizes iron scavenged from erythrocytes to increase survival in low ph environments.

Francisella tularensis is a highly infectious bacterium that causes the disease, tularemia.Humans acquire tularemia through inhalation, oropharyngeal exposure, or tick bites. A unique feature of F. tularensis during infection is its ability to invade erythrocytes. Recent evidence indicated that residing within an erythrocyte enhances the ability of F. tularensis to colonize ticks. Further results indicated that residing within erythrocytes protects F. tularensis from the low pH environment associated with the gut cells of a feeding tick. Iron has previously been shown to be utilized by F. tularensis to protect against killing by reactive oxygen species. We hypothesized that F. tularensis was obtaining iron from erythrocytes. This iron was being utilized by F. tularensis for protection against the oxidative stress associated with a low pH environment, such as that found in the gut cells of a tick. We first sought to determine whetherF. tularensis was capable of acquiring iron from erythrocytes. Our results indicated that F. tularensis bacteria incubated with red blood cells contained significantly more iron than those incubated in media alone. This suggested that F. tularensis bacteria were capable of acquiring iron from these host cells. Investigations are ongoing that will assess whether additional iron is responsible for protecting the F. tularensis bacteria from the low pH environment of the tick gut cells.

The purpose was to collect assessment data with three separate health literacy tools and compare the efficiency of identifying individuals that are at risk for low health literacy levels.Health Literacy is defined as the capacity to obtain, communicate, process, and understand basic health information and services to make appropriate health decisions. Adults with basic or below basic health literacy skills (35% in the U.S.) have problems reading a chart and understanding simple medical instructions. Literature supports the association between low health literacy levels and poor health outcomes.Approval for the project was obtained from the Human Subjects Committee. A partnership was formed with a local physician office to assess a total of 50 patients. Students worked in pairs and collected the following data: highest level of education, a single question assessment, the Newest Vital Sign (NVS) assessment, and the Rapid Estimate of Adult Literacy in Medicine- Short Form (REALM-SF) assessment.Using linear correlation, the three tools are not well related. Of all participants, 96% reported that they never or rarely ask for help, yet on the NVS, 43% scored a limited or possibly limited health literacy result. Correlating education level: of those participants with a high school, technical, and associate degree, the average scores put them at a limited or possibly limited health literacy level. However, with those participants with a bachelor degree or higher, the average score was at a level of adequate health literacy.

The presence of crystal polymorphisms within common pharmaceutical drugs can alter the drug’s stability, rate of absorption into the body and bloodstream, as well as its effectiveness. Manipulations to the drug’s disposition surface with organic acid self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) can introduce various functional groups to surface creating novel bonding structures with the drug and induce polymorphic orientations; organic acids used in this project include octadecylphosphonic acid (ODPA), 16-phosphonohexadecanoic acid (COOH-PA), and hexadecane sulfonic acid (HDSA). Several pharmaceutical drugs were examined due to their known existence of polymorphisms: flufenamic acid (FFA), a common nonsteroidal anti- inflammatory drug (NSAID) pain-reliever with 9 known forms; caffeine, a widely consumed stimulant with 2 forms; and carbamazepine, an anti-convulsant for epilepsy treatment with 4 known polymorphic forms. In addition, the federally scheduled drug cocaine, was selected because of no reported conclusions or investigations on its polymorphic tendencies. Screening of polymorphisms and their analysis was completed using Diffuse Reflectance Infrared Fourier Transform (DRIFT) spectroscopy, an IR Microscope, Raman spectroscopy, and Powder X-Ray Diffraction (PXRD), while analysis of absorption rates in the body conditions was estimated using UV-Visible Spectrophotometry. Thus far in the investigation, 5 polymorphic forms of FFA have been produced, the anhydrous caffeine crystal, and 3 forms of carbamazepine.
