Code-Mixing and Code-Switching in Cameroon Social Media
Authors: Tabe Camilla Arundie
Published: February 2023

This study examines code-mixing and code-switching in Cameroon social media to find out the languages that are mixed or switched to and the reasons for the phenomenon. Insights came from the structural approach to code-switching, which measures the degree to which an L2 is incorporated into an L1 or vice versa (Poplack, 1980, 2000; Poplack & Meechan, 1995; Myers-Scotton, 1993b, 2002). Data comprises 245 e-messages which were drawn from e-mail(s) (100), Facebook (60) and WhatsApp (85). The data were collected through screenshots with the use of android phones. Quantitative and qualitative analyses of data show the presence of code-mixing and code-switching from English to French (48%), English to Cameroon Pidgin English (18.4%) and English to home languages (11.5%). It was construed that Cameroons mix or switch codes because of their multicultural and multilingual backgrounds.
DIVERSITY, PHYLOGENY AND 3-D PROTEIN MODELING OF FAMILY ACANTHACEAE BASED ON RPS14 GENE SEQUENCE IN PAKISTAN
Authors: Shafqat S , Mehmood T
Published: February 2023

The Acanthaceae is an important family of plants and it is also known as acanthus family, comprised of 250 genera and 4000 species spread globally in subtropical and tropical areas. From various geographical areas of Pakistan twelve species of Acanthaceae were collected to study its phylogeny utilizing ribosomal protein subunit 14 (rps14) gene. CTAB method was followed for the extraction of DNA from the leaves of collected plant samples. Primer was designed by using an online software primer3 (version 4.0). The sequence analysis was done using molecular evolutionary genetic analysis (MEGA 7), Iterative Threading Assembly Refinement (I-TASSER) and The Structure Analysis and Verification Server (SAVES). Our results showed two main clades of all twelve species revealing low genetic diversity (0.01) based on well supported bootstrap (BS) values. Furthermore, the pairwise distances ranged from 0.027 to 0.130 with mean value 0.078 was observed. To determine the 3-D protein structure and function of rps14 amino acid sequences, stereochemical analysis was performed using Ramachandran plots and I-TASSER. 3-D protein modeling depicted that rps14 protein from ten species out of twelve have the best quality structure with ≤ 2.0 % residues in disallowed region. Both phylogenetic analysis (amino acid and nucleotide sequences) revealed monophyletic origin of all species. Based on these results future studies should focus on physiological, taxonomical and molecular characters of family Acanthaceae species to determine lineages of all taxa within this diverse family.
Key words: Acanthaceae; rps14 gene; Genetic diversity; 3-D protein; Phylogeny

The composition and abundance of benthic animals are commonly used as bio-indicators to determine the impact of pollution on physico-chemical integrity of surface waters and changing pattern of biotic characteristics of lentic and lotic system. The benthos serves as a link between primary producers, decomposers and higher trophic level. Song river is a spring fed hill stream originated from different small rivulets of lesser Himalayan mountainous ranges at Garhwal region of Uttarakhand. The study was carried out from 2006-2008, the water samples were collected from three different sites in a stretch of about ten kilometres from Song river. All taxa were identified to species/genus level with the help of identification keys. The 5 faunal groups and 19 genera were observed at three different stations in the Song river. At all three sites, Tubifex was the dominant genera among Oligochaeta. Among polychaeta, Namalycastic indica, Napthys polybranchia, Napthys oligobrunchia species were reported at all above three different sites of Song river. Biotic indices indicated moderate pollution in the water quality of upstream and down stream water. The CCME (Canadian Council of Minister of Environment) water quality index (2001) showed marginal range of pollution in the river. The abundance of pollution tolerant organisms indicated the downstream site is receiving nutrient-rich urban runoff containing little or no toxins substances.

Published: February 2023

In the present research work an approach to assess the water quality status of Tons river at Dehradun (Uttarakhand) has been done during January 2008 to June 2008. The Tons is the largest tributary of the Yamuna and flows through Garhwal region in Uttarakhand, touching Himachal Pradesh. Its source lies in the 20,720 ft (6,315 meters) high Bandarpunch mountain and is one of the most major perennial Indian Himalayan rivers. The parameters studied were temperature, velocity, TS, TDS, TSS, pH, free CO2, DO, hardness, calcium, magnesium, BOD, COD, chloride and alkalinity. Except DO all the studied parameters showed higher range of values in summer period and lower values in winter period. On the other hand  DO showed reversed pattern by reveling maximum values in  winter which may be due to higher solubility of oxygen at lower ambient temperature. Water of river Tons is of alkaline in nature so far as pH is concerned. The average values of BOD, TS, hardness and alkalinity were observed beyond the standard limits. The presence of bacteria was clearly shown by the value of BOD which has gone beyond the standard limit that can affect public health by causing fatal diseases.

Authors: Esfandiary Fariba
Published: February 2023

Cities occupy vast and expansive terrain.  Land is composed of several topographic and geomorphological units. As cities expand and develop, they encounter with topographic and geomorphologic units and issues pertaining to them also increase. Ardebil with its increasing population and urban sprawl is a city that is not an exception to this rule and its expansion has been influenced by the dynamics of the natural environment. In this paper, the hindrances to the expansion of this city, often due to geomorphologic factors, are discussed. To this end, topographic maps of 1:5000 and geological maps of 1:100000 were prepared followed by a field study that yielded images of geomorphologic phenomena in the region.  After matching the maps with the geomorphologic phenomena in the region, these maps were scanned in Arc view GIS, digitalized and theme maps of altitude, slope, slope direction, lithology were prepared.  The values of each of these factors were determined using the AHP, and faults, networks of watersheds, slopes, slope direction, thickness of matrices etc were plotted on lithology maps in GIS environment. Finally, after overlaying the maps, sensitive and susceptible points of the region were identified and zonation maps of unstable and sensitive points were prepared in GIS environment.

Two studies were performed to analyze the photoperiodic interaction of testicular growth in brahminy myna and weaver bird. In the first study, birds were exposed to stimulatory long day lengths (15L:9D) and natural day length (NDL) for 60 days. The second study investigated the interpretation of a light pulse as ‘morning (entraining)’ or ‘evening (inducing)’ depends on the time during night at which they fall. Five groups (6L:6D:1L:11D, 6L:13D:1L:4D, 11L:13D, 13L:11D and NDL respectively) of birds were exposed under skeleton and complete photoperiods for two months. Body mass and testicular volume was measured on monthly intervals. In the first study, testicular volume among both groups (15L:9D) and (NDL) gradually increased, but more inductive effect was found in 15L:9D. In the second study more induction occurred in testicular volume of groups 6L: 6D: 1L: 11D and 13L: 11D with different magnitude as if it was exposed to long days. Taken together, results demonstrate that birds were sensitive to the stimulatory photoperiod and strongly show that brahminy myna and weaver bird at 290N, 770 45’E latituderesponded similar to the populations living at higher latitudes and these species use the photoperiodic cues from the environment to regulate their reproductive cycles.

High intensity ultraviolet radiation induced changes in aquatic arthropod with retene and riboflavin
Authors: Kumar Sunil , Kumari Priyanka
Published: February 2023

Ozone depletion is resulting into increase in ultraviolet radiation level in the world. Exposure to UV radiation has been found to have negative effects on aquatic and terrestrial organisms. Adverse effect of natural solar and artificial ultraviolet-B and UV-A radiations was observed in crustacean species Daphnia magna in presence of retene and riboflavin. Daphnia magna exposed to artificial ultraviolet-B with retene causes maximum physiological changes and mortality, indicating that enhanced solar UV-B exposure could be lethal to aquatic fauna. Artificial UV-B had a stronger damaging effect than solar radiation and become highly toxic in presence of retene. Riboflavin is slightly phototoxic in presence of solar and artificial UV radiation. Results on mortality rate indicated highest mortality in retene + ultraviolet-B exposed group followed by riboflavin + artificial ultraviolet - B radiation. A dose and intensity dependent change in mortality rate was observed. Retene and riboflavin photoproducts with ultraviolet radiation generate reactive oxygen species leading to cell injury and mortality thus are threat to aquatic biodiversity.

Fish as a group, from biodiversity view point has the highest species diversity among all vertebrate taxa. Present communication deals with the reassessment of ichthyofaunal diversity of the river Bhilangna and its two sub tributaries, the Balganga and the Nailchami of Bhagirathi river system in Garhwal Himalaya. The observation made during study showed the occurrence of 22 fish species belonging to 2 orders, 3 families and 9 genera from varying habitat of falls, cascades, rapids, riffles and pools in various sections of river Bhilangna and its tributaries. Schizothorax richardsonii, S. plagiostomus are dominate species in the riverine segment of river Bhilangna while Cyprinus carpio (common carp) is the dominate species in impoundment segment of river Bhilangana (reservoir area). The comparison of results of present study with earlier reports revealed that fish fauna has decreased with passage of time in the Bhilangana river system which may be due to degradation and fragmentation of riverine habitat caused by various developmental activities, changes in the natural flow pattern of river, indiscriminate fishing by the use of destructive and unscientific fishing methods, and other natural calamities.

Published: February 2023

Himalayan Alpine pasture occurs at high altitude mountains in between the tree line and perpetual snow line. These constitute one of the important land cover. These pastures contain very good grasses and medicinal plants thus traditionally tribal people depend on these pastures for grazing their animals during summer. 75% of the total alpine pastures in Himalayan region are situated in Himachal Pradesh.The alpine pasture of Himachal Pradesh provides a matchless wealth of highly priced medicinal, aromatic plants and known as a natural reservoir of these herbs. In alpine pasture and meadows due to continuous loss of forest land, uncontrolled grazing and irregular exploitation of medicinal herbs by commercial enterprises have resulted in depletion of valuable medicinal plants used since ancient times. There are many medicinal plants which have become rare in several tracts while a few others have fallen in the list of endangered species. Therefore it has been felt that there is an urgent need for ex-situ and in-situ conservation of these valuable and threatened species.

Published: February 2023

A reporting of an abnormality in the beak in a male Japanese quail, Coturnixcoturnix japonica, has been discussed in this paper. During the behavioral study of Japanese quails, a male differed markedly from the others due to its comparatively longer beak. The maxilla was abnormally elongated and curved over the mandible, which made it difficult to feed and drink.Beak deformities has been previously reported in the Antarctic Cormorant,Phalacrocoraxbransfieldensischick; White winged Becard,Pachyramphuspolychopterus; Passerines (Craves); Brown headed Cowbird; Black Wheatears, Oenantheleucura; Southern Giant Petrel, Macronectesgiganteus chick. But no such record of beak deformity in japanese quail has been studied. The reason behind this anomaly can be a subject of research.
Designing misinformation interventions for all: Perspectives from AAPI, Black, Latino, and Native American community leaders on misinformation educational efforts
Authors: Lee Angela Y. , Moore Ryan C. , Hancock Jeffrey T.
Published: February 2023

This paper examines strategies for making misinformation interventions responsive to four communities of color. Using qualitative focus groups with members of four non-profit organizations, we worked with community leaders to identify misinformation narratives, sources of exposure, and effective intervention strategies in the Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI), Black, Latino, and Native American communities. Analyzing the findings from those focus groups, we identified several pathways through which misinformation prevention efforts can be more equitable and effective. Building from our findings, we propose steps practitioners, academics, and policymakers can take to better address the misinformation crisis within communities of color. We illustrate how these recommendations can be put into practice through examples from workshops co-designed with a non-profit working on disinformation and media literacy.

Self-efficacy is an assessment or belief that a person has about their ability to organize and carry out an action. This study aims to describe the self-efficacy of nursing students. The research design used was non-experimental with a descriptive approach. The population in this study were professional students of the Faculty of Nursing, the University of Jember, with a total sampling technique of 236 respondents. The results showed that the respondents' self-efficacy obtained the mean and standard deviation (60.75 ± 8.296). In the results of the self-efficacy indicator, the mean and min-max results for levels 23.96 and 9-32. The mean (18.79) and min-max (7-24) results are obtained on the strength indicator. The generalization indicator's mean (18.02) and min-max (10-24) results are obtained. The conclusion of this study shows that the value of student self-efficacy is still not optimal because students do not fully state that they often and very often have confidence in carrying out and completing the nursing professional education process. Students' self-efficacy needs to be improved by having good relationships with clinical and academic supervisors as role models, asking for verbal persuasion from those closest to them, and practicing activities independently to achieve a certain level of competence.
