Impacts of submergence stress on rice plants and its adaptation: A review
Authors: Khanal Dipak , Bastakoti Babita , Banjade Dhurba
Published: September 2024

The main aim of this review is to convey information in summarized form by compiling and interpreting the major findings of recent studies on the impacts of submergence stress on rice and tolerance mechanisms. Published research papers available in Google Scholar, Web of Science, and Pub Med, mainly by Elsevier and SpringerLink, were critically analyzed and summarized for the preparation of the manuscript. In rice, plant survival rates, growth, and development are adversely affected by submergence. Major findings documented that submergence alters the soil aeration and creates hypoxic and anoxic conditions, which results in low photosynthetic efficiency and sugar status in rice plants. Compared to a tolerant cultivar, a sensitive cultivar produces more ethylene and causes injury to the plant. Controlled underwater shoot elongation, higher conserved non-structural carbohydrates, and better hormonal regulation, especially ethylene and gibberellin, and abscisic acid, are the primary adaptive mechanisms of tolerant plants in submergence, which helps better recovery at the post-submergence stage, too. The Sub1 gene and the associated QTLs are crucial for the superior performance of tolerant cultivars in submergence. Any agronomic management practices that can reduce ethylene production and enhance the nutrient status of plants can alleviate the severity of submergence. Understanding the intricate relationship between submergence and rice plant response is essential, mainly how submergence affects the rice plant and its tolerance mechanism to develop resilient rice cultivars that can grow in flood-prone regions.

Integrated nutrient management combining inorganic and organic fertilizers is a promising approach to sustain crop production and soil health. As a premium rice type, integrated nutrients to cultivate black rice are rarely studied in Bangladesh. So, this research was conducted to identify the best combination of inorganic fertilizer (IF) and cow dung (CD) for maximizing the yield and nutritional quality of black rice. The experiment was conducted in the field laboratory of the Department of Agronomy, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh following a Completely Randomized Design with four replications. Six treatments with single and combining IF and CD viz., 0% IF + 0% CD (IF0CD0), 100% IF + 0% CD (IF100CD0), 75% IF + 25% CD (IF75CD25), 50% IF + 50% CD (IF50CD50), 25% IF + 75% CD (IF25CD75), and 0% IF + 100% CD (IF0CD100) were applied. A significant variation was found among different treatments concerning plant growth, yield contributing characters, yield, and nutritional composition of black rice. Overall, a better performance was obtained from the application of 75% IF and 25% CD (IF75CD25) concerning most of the studied parameters with few deviations. The highest number of tillers hill-1(8.33), effective tillers hill-1 (7.33), panicle length (25.97 cm), spikelet’s panicle-1 (22.87), grains panicle-1 (129.7), grain yield (4 t ha-1), protein (9.71%), and potassium (0.58%) were found at the treatment IF75CD25. The overall results suggest that 25% cow dung combined with 75% recommended inorganic fertilizers can be applied to achieve maximum yield and nutritional quality of black rice in non-calcareous soil.

Published: September 2024

A field experiment was conducted from March to July 2020 to investigate the impact of varying nitrogen levels on the growth and yield of popcorn maize in Parbat. The experiment was laid out in single factorial Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) comprising nine levels of nitrogen: 0, 50, 75, 100, 120, 125, 150, 175 and 200 kg ha-1 as treatment with three replications. "Lumle Yellow" variety was cultivated in an acidic (pH 4.9) clay loam soil with moderate levels of total nitrogen (0.19%), high levels of available phosphorus (126.6 kg ha-1), potassium (427.68 kg ha-1), and moderate organic matter content (4.36%). The findings showed that an increased N-level significantly increased plant height and the leaf area index, reaching a maximum at 175 kg N ha-1. While number of cob plant-1 and kernel row cob-1 were non-significant, yield attributing parameters such as cob length, cob diameter, number of kernel rows-1, thousand grain weight, and grain yield were significant and determined to be maximum at 150 kg N ha-1. With subsequent increases in N to 175 and 200 kg N ha-1, the yield-attributing features did not show an increase. The highest grain yield (4.97 Mt ha-1) produced from 150 kg N ha-1 was 98 percent higher than the yield obtained from control (2.5 Mt ha-1) and 28 percent higher as compared to lowest level of N (50 kg ha-1). However, reduction in grain yield was found with increase in N levels above 150 kg ha-1.

Nitrogen fertilization and weed management is the major concern to yield maximization of rice. The study was conducted to assess the influence of nitrogen and weed control to yield improvement of aromatic rice BRRI dhan34.  The experiment included three nitrogen levels viz. 50, 100 and 150 kg N ha-1 as well as three weeding schedules viz. one hand weeding at 15 days after transplanting (DAT), two hand weeding at 15 and 30 DAT and three hand weeding at 15, 30 and 45 DAT. The experiment was conducted with randomized complete block design. The findings demonstrated important correlations between weeding techniques, nitrogen levels and yield components. When the crop was fertilized with 50 kg N ha-1 the highest numbers of total tillers hill-1 (8.53), effective tillers hill-1 (7.51), grains panicle-1 (128.0) and grain yield (3.97 t ha-1) were resulted. Regarding weeding practices, two manual weeding carried out at 15 and 30 DAT reported the highest numbers of effective tillers hill-1 (7.62), grains panicle-1 (128.1) and grain yield (4.10 t ha-1). The highest effective tillers hill-1 (8.33), the most grains panicle-1 (129.8), the grain yield (4.36 t ha-1) and straw yield (6.40 t ha-1) were found in two hand weeding at 15 and 30 DAT combined with 50 kg N ha-1 and the lowest grain yield (3.53 t ha-1) was obtained from one hand weeding given at 15 DAT along with 150 kg N ha-1. Therefore, the study demonstrated that BRRI dhan34 can be fertilized with 50 kg N ha-1 along with two hand weeding at 15 and 30 DAT to obtained higher yield.

Published: September 2024

The importance of lifelong learning and professional self-education in the modern world is beyond doubt. The search for external and internal incentives to increase people's interest in self-development is an important task for management sciences. External motivation includes the efforts of managers and HR managers to encourage employees to learn. In childhood and adolescence, parents, teachers and professors perform this function. However, it is important to understand what internal factors affect the desire for new knowledge and experience. According to numerous studies, social intelligence plays this role, as it affects the formation of positive qualities of a person from a social point of view. The purpose of this research was to verify the correlation between the level of social intelligence of an individual and his/her desire for self-development and additional training. The survey was conducted on a sample of students from a private online school that provides soft skills, financial and digital literacy training. The research results have complemented the previous survey among senior university students to form a comprehensive picture. High statistical reliability (p≤0.001***) was found for a significant relationship between social intelligence and its components and the desire to study further. The research results indicate the importance of developing a person’s social intelligence in order to stimulate professional self-education. Increasing the level of employees’ competence has a positive influence on their loyalty to the corporate culture, enhancing the personnel security of enterprises.

The status of Scandosorbus and Hedlundia species as hosts for Erwinia amylovora
Authors: Lindström Stafva , Tuomola Juha
Published: September 2024

Summary
Erwinia amylovora, the causal agent of fire blight disease, is regulated as a protected zone quarantine pest in Finland. To prevent the introduction of E. amylovora, all its host plants traded to Finland from other EU countries must have an official plant passport. Currently, plants from the genus Sorbus are considered hosts of E. amylovora under the existing regulation. However, recent reclassification of Sorbus has resulted in the establishment of new genera, including Scandosorbus and Hedlundia. This has led to uncertainty about whether these newly established genera should be regulated as hosts of E. amylovora. Consequently, the Risk Assessment Unit of the Finnish Food Authority was asked to assess the host status of Scandosorbus and Hedlundia species for E. amylovora.
We based our assessent on a comprehensive literature review of species‐specific information on naturally occurring infections of E. amylovora in the genus Sorbus s.l., as well as experimental studies that have tested susceptibility under field or greenhouse conditions.
The literature review revealed no evidence of natural infections by E. amylovora in any species belonging to the genera Hedlundia and Scandosorbus. While some experimental studies have demonstrated mild disease development in certain species belonging to these genera, the lack of further supporting evidence suggests that these species should not be considered as hosts of E. amylovora. However, our assessment was based on very limited available information, making the conclusions uncertain. For most species belonging to Hedlundia, there is no information available on their susceptibility. Given that resistance to fire blight can vary even among closely related taxa, it is possible that some species or cultivars belonging to Hedlundia, for which data is currently lacking, may be susceptible to E. amylovora. Further studies are needed to verify the host status of these species.
Interestingly, we found evidence of natural infections of E. amylovora in Sorbus s.l. species that are now classified under the newly established genera Aria, Alniaria, Cormus, and Torminalis. The host status of these genera may need revision, as they potentially should be considered hosts in the Commission regulation regarding the trade of E. amylovora host plants.

Published: September 2024

La valoración de la composición corporal en deportistas universitarios es un elemento primordial para mejorar el rendimiento deportivo. El Índice de Distribución de Grasa Corporal (IDGC) es un indicador antropométrico poco investigado, pero que puede ser útil para identificar la distribución de la grasa corporal cuando no se dispone de máquinas de bioimpedancia en las instituciones. El presente estudio tiene como objetivo valorar la composición corporal de estudiantes activos e inactivos a través de la antropometría (IDGC) como una alternativa a la bioimpedancia eléctrica, así como su relación con la alimentación, la actividad física y la condición física. Se incluyeron 66 estudiantes universitarios, mujeres y hombres sanos, mayores de 18 años, a quienes se les realizaron mediciones antropométricas para el cálculo del IDGC y la grasa corporal, considerando cuatro pliegues cutáneos y dos circunferencias. Además, se evaluaron el peso, el porcentaje de grasa total y por segmentos, la masa muscular y el agua mediante una máquina de bioimpedancia de ocho electrodos. Las mediciones se realizaron en un solo momento y se compararon ambas técnicas y grupos. Posteriormente, se realizó una asociación entre el IDGC y algunas variables medidas. La información se analizó con SPSS Statistics 21.0, aplicando la prueba t para muestras independientes y la U de Mann-Whitney para identificar diferencias entre grupos, y la prueba de Spearman para medir la correlación de variables, utilizando un índice de significancia de 0.05. Se encontró una correlación positiva fuerte entre el IDGC y la bioimpedancia como método para determinar la distribución de la grasa corporal. Las diferencias más significativas entre estudiantes activos e inactivos se identificaron en el IDGC, el MET, la resistencia y la fuerza.

Authors: Boukhary Mohamed , Al Menoufy Safia G.
Published: September 2024

Five alveolinid species were identified from the Naqb Formation of Bahariya Oasis; Glomalveolina telementensis (Paleocene), Alveolina ankarensis (early Ypresian), Alveolina decipiens (early Ypresian), Alveolina recondita (early Ypresian), Alveolina cf. vredenburgi (early Ypresian). They are indicative of the SBZ7-8 Zone. The studied section is mainly composed of multiple Alveolina horizons. An index marker worth mentioning is Alveolina decipiens which is also recorded from the El Nusf Formation of the Farafra Oasis; this allows for correlation between the two sections. Alveolina decipiens of the El Nusf Formation is associated with Nummulites solitarius and Nummulites frassi and indicates that this horizon belongs to SBZ7-8. One species was recorded from the Minia Formation, Nile Valley; Alveolina ruetimeyeri (late Ypresian), SBZ12. Its occurrence in highly carbonate sediments allowed for paleoecologic interpretations.
Estimating CaCO3 Content Based on Natural Gamma Ray (NGR) in Deep-Ocean Sediment Cores
Authors: Shchepetkina Alina , Moal-Darrigade Paul , Pekar Stephen , Williams Trevor
Published: September 2024

We present a simple, quick, and high-resolution (approx.10 cm) method for calculating almost continuous calciumcarbonate (CaCO3) proxy records in deep-marine sediment cores based on the well-known dependence of NGR (natural gamma ray) on sediment clay content. The method used in this study is based on the assumption that sediment composition along the SAT (South Atlantic Transect) consists of two components: carbonate and clay. This assumption is reasonably accurate for the region under investigation. At carbonate-rich Site U1583 (66–97 wt% CaCO3), calculated CaCO3 wt% contents are within 4.18% at 1 standard deviation (r) of geochemical analyses of the CaCO3 wt% contents of discrete samples (measured using a coulometer), while at the more lithologically variable Site U1557 (0.1–92 wt% CaCO3), they are within 15.6% at 1r. Results indicate good to excellent correlations between the NGR- and coulometry-derived datasets, supporting the use of this method for carbonate stratigraphy, paleoceanography, and paleoclimate reconstructions. We provide an equation to derive CaCO3 wt% from NGR based on the SAT datasets. The procedure described below can be used to construct the higher resolution proxy CaCO3 records at other sites worldwide compared to discrete CaCO3 values. This method can assist with shipboard lithology determination and can guide core sampling.

This study aimed to investigate the interplay between political soft power, macroeconomics, and the emerging Metaverse, an increasingly popular virtual space where users can interact, create, and consume content. By reviewing relevant
literature on these three topics, this study was seeking to understand how the Metaverse may impact macroeconomic indicators such as GDP, trade, and employment, and how different countries and organizations are using the Metaverse
to project their soft power. Specifically, this study explored the potential for the Metaverse to reshape global politics and economics, as well as the economic opportunities and challenges that may arise as the Metaverse continues
to grow. Additionally, this study considered the potential policy and regulatory implications of the Metaverse for governments and international organizations, with a focus on how to balance economic growth, cultural exchange,
and political stability. Overall, this study aimed to shed light on the complex and dynamic relationship between the Metaverse, macroeconomics, and political soft power, and to provide insights for policymakers, academics, and
practitioners who seek to understand this emerging field.

Çalışmada ulaşılmak istenilen amaç, aydın kavramının hem Türkiye’deki hem de dünyadaki gelişimini göz önünde bulundurularak, Cemil Meriç’in aydınlara bakışı üzerinden farklı bir değerlendirme sunmaktır. Toplamda üç bölümden oluşan
çalışmanın ilk bölümünde genel olarak aydın kavramı ele alınmıştır. İkinci bölümde Meriç’in hayatı ve onun aydın kavramına bakışı dile getirilmiştir. Son bölümde ise Meriç’in aydını hangi noktalarda eleştirdiği, aydın hakkında
neleri mesele edindiği ifade edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Çalışmada nitel bir araştırma şeklinde yola çıkılmış, Meriç’in hem batı hem de doğu aydını için sunduğu fikirler karşılaştırmalı olarak ele alınmıştır. Bu incelemeler yapılırken
doküman analizinden faydalanılmış ve tarihsel-betimsel analiz yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Yapılan analizler sonucunda aydın kavramına yüklenen birden çok anlam, ortak bir çatı altında toplanmaya çalışılmıştır. Ayrıca Meriç özelinde
aydın kavramı ve aydın kavramına ilişkin fikir dünyası değerlendirmeye alınmıştır. Çalışmanın Meriç’in aydın kavramına ve aydınlara yönelik ortaya koyduğu eleştirel yaklaşımları ele alması bakımından literatüre katkı yapacağı düşünülmektedir.
The XIXth Century of the Ottoman Empire Modernization Efforts in the Century: Social Diseases and Prescriptıons of the Period
Authors: Furkan ALPDOĞAN Fatih , ÇETİNTAŞ Ahmet
Published: September 2024

Çağdaş sosyoloji literatüründe modern, modernleşmiş ya da modernleşen gibi terimler, çeşitli kriterler üzerinden bir durum tespiti yapmak için kullanılır. Günümüz paradigması Batı modernleşmesini çeşitli esaslar üzerinden açıklar.
Bu esaslar coğrafi keşifler, aydınlanma, Rönesans, Reform, Kalvinizm ve Sanayi Devrimi gibi köklü hareketler toplumla birlikteliğin bir ürünü olarak imgelenir. Her bir yenilik hareketi ise modernliğe giden önemli bir yol olarak
açıklanır. Burada dikkat edilmesi gereken ana konu modernleşmenin temel dayanağı olarak neyin görüleceğidir. Batı özelinde sekülerleşme, siyasi ve sosyal gelişme gibi konular modernleşmeyi sağlayan temel saikler olarak görülebilir.
Türklerin modernleşme çabalarının ise askeri alanda geri kalmışlığın bir tezahürü olarak ortaya çıktığı söylenebilir. XVII. Yüzyıl Osmanlı’sında askeri yenilgilerin artması, batının ekonomik ve askeri devrimine yetişememe durumu
gücü elinde bulunduran kesimi bir değişim düşüncesi içerisine bırakır. İlk olarak III. Selim ve daha sonra halefi II. Mahmud Osmanlı İmparatorluğunun ilk köklü dönüşüm süreçlerine imza atan padişahları olarak tarihteki yerlerini
aldılar. Padişahların yanı sıra devrin aydınları da “Devleti nasıl kurtarırız?” sorusu üzerine çeşitli fikirler öne sürdüler. İmparatorlukta yaşanan bütün bu gelişmelere rağmen XVII. ve XVIII. Yüzyıldaki parçalı ve bütünlük göstermeyen
modernleşme çabaları Batı kültürünün şekilsel yönüne öykünmeci bir tavrın ötesine geçemedi. Bu iki yüzyıl imparatorluğun dağılmaması adına çeşitli sosyal değişim modellerini de beraberinde getirdi. Bunlardan ilki Gülhane Hattı
Hümayunu ya da diğer adıyla Tanzimat Fermanı iken Islahat Fermanı da sorunları çözmek ve imparatorluğun dağılmasını önlemek adına ortaya atılmış modellerdi. Bu çalışmanın amacı sosyolojinin temel araştırma konularından biri olan
modernleşmeyi Osmanlı İmparatorluğunun yapısal unsurları bağlamında ele almaktır. Çalışmanın temel varsayımı ise Osmanlı’nın tarihsel süreçte modernleşmeye duyduğu ilginin padişahların girişimleriyle, dönem dönem ve parçalı olduğu
yönündedir. Osmanlı modernleşmesinin tarih disiplininin yanı sıra sosyolojik bağlamda ele alınacak olması, bu çalışmayı literatürdeki diğer çalışmalardan ayıran ve makaleyi özgün kılan en önemli unsurdur
Mirza Yusuf Khan Tabrizî (Müstesar Al-Dawla) and the Treatise of Yak Kaleme in the Modernization of Iran
Authors: ALKAÇ Ömer
Published: September 2024

Mirza Yusuf Han Tebrizî’yi Nâsırüddin Şah döneminin en önemli entellektüellerinden biri olarak ele almak gerekir. Henüz erken yaşlarda Tebriz’de İngiliz Konsolosluğu’nda başlayan diplomatik görevleri Tiflis, Petersburg ve Paris’e kadar
uzanmıştır. İran modernleşme hareketinin öncülerinden olan Müsteşarüddevle, kaleme almış olduğu makale, risale ve kitapları vasıtasıyla fikirlerini İranlıların zihinlerine aşılamış ve İran modernleşmesinin en aktif simalarından
birisi olarak tarihteki yerini almıştır. Nâsırüddin Şah devrinde, kanun kelimesini söylemenin dahi günah sayıldığı bir dönemde büyük bir cesaret örneği göstererek Yek Kelime adlı eseri yazmıştır. Fransız kanunlarıyla İslam şeriatı
arasında bir benzerlik kurmaya çalışan Müsteşarüddevle, İslâm Dini’nin modernleşmeye engel olmadığını ortaya koymaya çalışmıştır. Yek Kelime’yi diplomatik görevleri esnasında yurt dışında edindiği tecrübelerinden faydalanarak kaleme
almıştır. Batıdaki kalkınmanın tek sebebi olarak kanunu gören Müsteşarüddevle, özgürlük ve kanun uğrunda ömrünü harcamasına rağmen faaliyetlerinin neticelerini göremeden vefat etmiştir. Yek Kelime adlı eseri onun özellikle meşrutiyet
taraftarları arasında meşhur olmasını sağlamıştır. Bu çalışmada Müsteşarüddevle’nin biyografisi ve Yek Kelime risalesi Farsça kaynaklar ışığında ele alınmıştır.
Categorization of Linguistic Borrowing: Haugen’s Model
Authors: Orkun ATASOY İsmail , ERCAN Gülsüm Songül
Published: September 2024

Language contact is a phenomenon that emerges when groups of people speaking different languages seek to communicate with one another, and as a consequence, various linguistic phenomena transpire; and “borrowing” is one of them. Borrowing
is generally defined as the transfer of language elements from one language to another. In this sense, borrowing is not only related to words, but also to various linguistic fields such as semantics, morphology and phonology. Therefore,
researchers have attempted to develop various borrowing classifications by taking various parameters into consideration. The categories developed by researchers such as Bloomfield (1933), Betz (1949) and Haugen (1950, 1953) are
the cases in this regard. Even though there are some different recent approaches, it is seen that they are based on Haugen (1950), who proposed a comprehensive categorization of borrowing based on the concepts of importation and
substitution. Since the categorization in question is a borrowing classification that is commonly recognized, widely accepted and still utilized today, it is possible to say that it is a principal categorization. This categorization
has some categories and subcategories such as lexical borrowing, loanword, hybrid borrowing, transferred borrowing and formation. In the present study, borrowing, the history of borrowing categories, major borrowing categories
and basically the main features of Haugen's (1950, 1953) borrowing categories have been discussed. This study aims to contribute to the relevant literature on this specific subject.

As the conflict unfolded, it became apparent that women and children were disproportionately affected, facing unique challenges and vulnerabilities amidst the chaos. This critical reflection aims to explore the intersection of feminism and the Syrian war, shedding light on the experiences of women and children and examining the broader implications of this crisis.
Invisible Gates Made Visible in Trinidad and Tobago: Projected and Sanctified Violence by the Liberal State upon Illegal immigrants and Refugees
Authors: Mohammed Shareed
Published: September 2024

Over the past decade, illegal immigrants from other countries, especially those from Venezuela, to the Anglophone Caribbean territories such as Trinidad and Tobago have increased (Chaves-Gonzalez and Echeverria-Estrada 2020: 1). The extent of this illegal immigration to this country is clearly illuminated in the statistics provided. Trinidad and Tobago as of May 2023 received 35.3 thousand Venezuelan illegal immigrants (IOM Global Crisis Response Platform 2022).  With the concern to protect national and economic interests, the debate on securing the rights and privileges of illegal immigrants in this Trinidad and Tobago, has been increasingly pushed to the forefront. So, too, has the discussion on the relationship between those prejudicial migration policies and the form of sanctified violence inflicted on these illegal migrants.

A didactic proposal for teaching factorization cases of expressions of the form ax2+by+cx+ay+exy+f through Mathigon
Authors: Balda Álvaréz Paola Alejandra , Chacón-Castro Marcos , Busain Romina Soledad , Jadán-Guerrero Janio
Published: September 2024

This paper presents the results of research conducted in a classroom setting with eighth-grade students in a public school in Argentina. The experience aimed, within the framework of an algebra course, to introduce the design and results of the implementation of a didactic proposal designed to establish relationships between expressions of the form ax2+by+cx+ay+exy+f, with a, b ∈ N and c, d, e, f ∈ Z, as a product of factors through the virtual manipulative Mathigon. The evidence collected leads to the identification that algebraic work using virtual manipulatives allows students to give a different meaning to mathematics, explore various forms of representation, and construct their own knowledge.
