Authors: Andrade Miguel , Alvarez Bento Javier , Utrilla Victor , Vargas Paola , Clifton Guillermo , Gallardo Rodrigo
Published: May 2019

En el SE de Santa Cruz, se desarrolló un trabajo con el objetivo de evaluar las pérdidas de corderas de reposición respecto al campo natural y la evolución del peso vivo desde enero a mayo durante dos años (2015-2016 y 2017-2018) en una pastura mezcla de pasto ovillo (Dactylis glomerata) y agropiro intermedio (Agropyron intermedium (Host) Beauvois. Tres lotes de corderas señaladas provenientes de tres campos fueron elegidas al azar y evaluadas. En los animales identificados se determinó en tres fechas (enero, febrero-marzo y abril-mayo) el peso vivo (PV), ganancias y rangos de PV. La pastura se muestreo en tres fechas (diciembre, marzo y mayo) para determinar la biomasa aérea disponible, el material vivo (MV) y muerto, la proteína bruta y digestibilidad de la materia seca. El análisis estadístico relaciono el PV de los animales con los días mediante regresiones y el PV de las corderas con el MV y las variables nutricionales mediante correlaciones. El trabajo incluyó registros de lluvias y temperaturas. En ambos años, se redujeron las pérdidas de animales en la pastura (< al 5%) respecto al campo natural (18%). La perfomance animal incluyó pérdidas de PV y mantenimiento del rango de PV inicial y final (1° año) y mejoras en ambos parámetros (2° año). Se concluye que el manejo aplicado genera un beneficio global y una mayor eficiencia en el sistema productivo aunque el desempeño animal depende del estado madurativo de la pastura influenciado por las condiciones hídricas ambientales.

Comparison of Efficacy and Safety Between Postoperative Intravesical Instillation of Mitomycin-C and Continuous Saline Bladder Irrigation after TURBT in Non-muscle Invasive Bladder Cancers
Authors: Bhat Arshad , Bhat Zubair
Published: May 2019

Objective

To critically analyse the efficacy and safety of continuous saline bladder irrigation versus single installation of mitomycin-C (MMC) after transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT) in patients with low to intermediate risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.

Materials and Methods

The question in consideration best merits answer by critically reviewing and analyzing the literature and finally to provide the recommendation about the relevance of the conclusions from the literature. A search study identifies the relevant literature from the well-known academic databases in the context of the re-search question. The particular sets of the key words are used in different formats to search the literature. The literature has been thoroughly reviewed and analyzed for the strengths and limitations. Specific data was critically taken for analysis depending upon the type of literature articles with special reference to their usefulness, knowledge, attitudes, transferability, validity/reliability and strength of conclusions.

Results

A total of 6 papers meeting the inclusion criteria, which compared the results of the efficacy and safety between intravesical chemotherapy and continuous saline bladder irrigation (CSBI) were critically analyzed.

Conclusion

CSBI cannot replace MMC in terms of its efficacy in the prevention of recurrence and progression but because of the better safety profile can be used as an alternative in patients with low to intermediate risk bladder cancers after TURBT.
Comparative and phylogenetic analysis of RuBisCO large subunit (rbcL) proteins in some Sideritis L. (Lamiaceae) species: A bioinformatic approach
Authors: Sevindik Emre
Published: May 2019

The large subunits of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase
(RuBisCO) protein, which plays an important role in the photosynthesis
reaction, are encoded by the chloroplast genome. Sideritis L., a medical and
aromatic plant group, belongs to Lamiaceae family. In this study, we
performed sequence, physicochemical, phylogenetic and three-dimensional (3D)
bioinformatic analyses of RuBisCO large subunit (rbcL) proteins in the
Sideritis ssp. using various bioinformatics tools. Physicochemical analyzes
were performed by ExPASy - ProtParam. The putative phosphorylation sites of
the rbcL proteins were determined by NetPhos 2.0 and NetPhos 3.1.
Phylogenetic analyses were performed with the MEGA 6.0 software. To estimate
3D protein structures, PyMol program was used. At the end of the study, it
was found that the amino acid number of stilbene synthase proteins ranged
between 171 and 456, molecular weight ranged between 19002.67 and 50420.44
Da, instability index ranged between 27.30 to 40.70 and GRAVY values ranged
between -0.394 to -0.226. While the highest average amino acid rate in the
rbcL proteins was Gly (10.00%), the lowest amino acid ratio (1.4%) was
determined as Trp. In phylogenetic analyses performed using protein
sequences, maximum likelihood (ML) tree consisted of 2 large clades.
Pairwise distance analysis based on Sideritis species? rbcL protein
sequences was performed using MEGA 6.0. The lowest pairwise distance was
0.000, while the highest pairwise distance was 0.024. When the estimated 3D
structures of the proteins were examined, the Gly residue, which plays an
important role in the structure and function of the proteins, was detected
as the least in S. libanotica subsp. kurdica species while it was the most
abundant residue in S. cretica subsp. spicata. The results of our study
provide insights into fundamental characteristics of rbcL proteins in
Sideritis taxa.
An alternative statistical model for the assessment of dry matter accumulation in cool season cereals: Cox Regression
Authors: Gökkuş Zeynep , Akçura Mevlüt
Published: May 2019

In this study, the growing behaviors of some cool season cereals (bread
wheat, rye, durum wheat and barley) cereals were modeled simultaneously
during the two growing seasons. For this purpose, Cox Regression was
proposed as an alternative to the preferred regression methods in previous
studies. In the study, based on the seasonal data of two different season
growing seasons (2012-2013, 2013-2014 and both), each of which has 5
replicates 27 samples, growth rates of these cereals via dry matter
accumulation quantities were explained in three different models. For this
purpose, the dry matter accumulation amounts were fitted to the survival
data and Cox Regression method, which uses the hazard function, the rate of
occurrence of a particular event, was preferred. As a result, each model was
found to be very important (p <0.000). It was determined that i) the fastest
growing species was barley, ii) dry matter accumulation decreased as
temperature increased, and iii) dry matter accumulation in crops changed
during each growth season.
Quantitative trait loci detection in Bulgarian cotton mutant segregating population
Authors: Bojinov B.M.
Published: May 2019

Identification of quantitative trait loci (QTL) linked to fiber quality is of
primary interest in cotton breeding. As Bulgarian cotton varieties belong to
a specific group (proles Bulgaricum) they are even more difficult for
cross-breeding into them such quality characteristics. Therefore a
segregating mutant population has been developed from the standard Bulgarian
variety ?Chirpan 603? by applying seed gamma irradiation. M4 and M5
generations were used for identification of QTLs related to fiber quality
characteristics. SSR markers developed in interspecific crosses and further
confirmed in intraspecific crosses, together with in-house developed ISSR
markers were used for association mapping of QTLs for fiber quality. Fiber
strength, length, uniformity, micronaire and elongation were the main
studied characteristics. QTLs with major effects on these traits identified
in M4 and M5 were confirmed in M6 generation. Further ones were identified
and used for map saturation and linkage group confirmation.
Limits of the EU’s transformative power and the Western Balkans
Authors: Kovacevic Maja
Published: May 2019

The European Union (EU) is a unique player in the Western Balkans, where it
has employed a wide array of foreign policy instruments since the 1990s such
as diplomacy, trade, financial assistance, civilian missions, military
missions, and enlargement, which is the EU?s most successful foreign policy
tool. The region is an inspiring case for studying the EU?s transformative
power. The undeniable success of the EU?s Enlargement Policy in influencing
transitions of Central and Eastern Europe countries has inspired research of
the Europeanization, or the EU?s transformative power in relation to
candidate countries, and its impact on their political and economic reforms
during the accession process. Since then, the EU?s global transformative
power has been in crisis. The European Neighbourhood Policy was reviewed in
2015, aiming not any more towards the transformation of neighbouring states,
but rather at fostering their resilience. Similarly, the 2016 Global
Strategy for the European Union?s Foreign and Security Policy set the
principled pragmatism as a guideline. Moreover, the EU?s transformative
power towards member states is questioned after two initiatives to trigger
Article 7 TEU procedures against Poland and Hungary. What about the
Europeanization of the Western Balkans? Despite the fact that the EU has
been the main driver of change, the Europeanization of this post-conflict
region has been slow. According to Freedom House, after substantial progress
from 2004 to 2010, the Western Balkans has declined six years in a row, and
its average Democracy Score in 2016 is the same as it was in 2004. With the
exception of Albania, the scores of all countries are declining, not
improving. The EU?s security-democratisation dilemma strongly affects its
transformative power in the Western Balkans. By prioritising effective
government rather than democratic governance, the EU has helped stabilise
non-democratic and corrupt regimes rather than transforming them,
legitimising Balkan "stabilitocrats".

Introduction/Objective. The classic type of celiac disease (CD) is most common in children under two years of age. The aim of this study was to investigate whether breastfeeding, particularly breastfeeding during gluten introduction, and timing of gluten introduction, influence the onset of CD at this age. Methods. We retrospectively analyzed medical records of 93 children, 40 in the first and 53 in the second year, with a classic CD diagnosed at the University Children?s Hospital, Belgrade between 2000 and 2010. The diagnosis of CD was based on the criteria of the European Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) from 1989. Results. Duration of breastfeeding reduced the onset of the CD in the first year p = 0.039 (OR = 1.43 95% CI 1.019?1.899). Also, breastfeeding at the time of gluten introduction significantly delayed the age at diagnosis (F = 1.671, t = 2.39, p = 0.029). The timing of gluten introduction did not affect the age of occurrence of CD in these group of children. Conclusion. Longer breastfeeding, and breastfeeding at the time of gluten introduction, postponed the onset of classic CD in patients up to two years. The association between the occurrence of CD and the time of introduction of gluten in this age group of patients has not been established.

The BBSome, a complex of eight Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) proteins involved in cilia function, has emerged as an important regulator of energy balance, but the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms are not fully understood. Here, we show that the control of energy homeostasis by the anorexigenic proopiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons and orexigenic agouti-related peptide (AgRP) neurons require intact BBSome. Targeted disruption of the BBSome by Bbs1 gene deletion in POMC or AgRP neurons increases body weight and adiposity. We demonstrate that obesity in mice lacking the Bbs1 gene in POMC neurons is associated with hyperphagia. Mechanistically, we present evidence implicating the BBSome in the trafficking of G protein–coupled neuropeptide Y Y2 receptor (NPY2R) and serotonin 5-hydroxytryptamine (HT)2C receptor (5-HT2CR) to cilia and plasma membrane, respectively. Consistent with this, loss of the BBSome reduced cell surface expression of the 5-HT2CR, interfered with serotonin-evoked increase in intracellular calcium and membrane potential, and blunted the anorectic and weight-reducing responses evoked by the 5-HT2cR agonist, lorcaserin. Finally, we show that disruption of the BBSome causes the 5-HT2CR to be stalled in the late endosome. Our results demonstrate the significance of the hypothalamic BBSome for the control of energy balance through regulation of trafficking of important metabolic receptors.
The Mediterranean Diet and 2-Year Change in Cognitive Function by Status of Type 2 Diabetes and Glycemic Control
Authors: Mattei Josiemer , Bigornia Sherman J. , Sotos-Prieto Mercedes , Scott Tammy , Gao Xiang , Tucker Katherine L.
Published: May 2019

OBJECTIVE

To determine associations of a Mediterranean diet score (MeDS) with 2-year change in cognitive function by type 2 diabetes and glycemic control status and contrast it against other diet quality scores.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

We used data from the longitudinal Boston Puerto Rican Health Study (n = 913; 42.6% with type 2 diabetes at 2 years). Glycemic control at baseline was categorized as uncontrolled (hemoglobin A1c ≥7% [53 mmol/mol]) versus controlled. Two-year change in glycemic control was defined as stable/improved versus poor/declined. We defined MeDS, Healthy Eating Index, Alternate Healthy Eating Index, and Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension scores. Adjusted mixed linear models assessed 2-year change in global cognitive function z score, executive and memory function, and nine individual cognitive tests.

RESULTS

Higher MeDS, but no other diet quality score, was associated with higher 2-year change in global cognitive function in adults with type 2 diabetes (β ± SE = 0.027 ± 0.011; P = 0.016) but not in those without (P = 0.80). Similar results were noted for Mini-Mental State Examination, word recognition, digit span, and clock drawing tests. Results remained consistent for individuals under glycemic control at baseline (0.062 ± 0.020; P = 0.004) and stable/improved over 2 years (0.053 ± 0.019; P = 0.007), but not for individuals with uncontrolled or poor/declined glycemic control. All diet quality scores were associated with higher 2-year memory function in adults without type 2 diabetes.

CONCLUSIONS

Both adhering to a Mediterranean diet and effectively managing type 2 diabetes may support optimal cognitive function. Healthy diets, in general, can help improve memory function among adults without type 2 diabetes.
Determinants of Demand for Higher Education in Indonesia: Evidence from Indonesia Family Life Survey
Authors: Rifa'i Achmad , Irwandi Irwandi , Mendy David
Published: May 2019

The most outstanding event in recent history has been the continuous increase in the proportion of students entering higher education. Thus, it seems reasonable to assume to what extent this significant increase in higher education participation has a connection to the individual characteristics, social-economic, religion, gender ethnicity geography variables. Using data from the IFLS, a binomial logit model was fitted to determine the factors that influence an individual to pursue a higher-level education as observed by the recent rise in the demand for higher education in Indonesia. The empirical findings of the study indicate the following: firstly, individual characteristic; score, school type are relevant variables for individual participation in higher education. Secondly, for the socioeconomic variables; income, father’s education, mother’s education, household status, household size are important variables for individual participation in higher education. Finally, for the gender, ethnicity variables; the results were quite shocking, both Javanese and Male are the less likely to demand higher education in Indonesia. Further, regional and geographic variables were found to be insignificant.

Iron was silvery white, clay, and can be formed.  it was usually obtained as hematite in nature. Iron was a chemical element that could be found in almost all places on the face of the earth, in all parts of the geological layer, and all bodies of water. In surface water, Fe was rarely found more than 1 mg / L, but in the water, Fe content could be much higher. When it accumulated in the body, iron could cause health problems, such as skin irritation, respiratory problems, and cause cancer in a long time. This study aims to determine the reduction of iron content in well water at the Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta (UMS) using the Spectrophotometry method with phenanthroline reagents. The samples were taken as many as five points in three different regions, namely Tanuragan (near the river), Menco and Nilasari (dense settlements), and Gonilan (near the rice fields) showed positive results containing iron with the highest levels in the sample without filtering at 9,478 ppm. These levels decreased after filtration using four filters, namely filters made of carbon, cotton, foam, carbon three layers in each sample. The iron content reduction was best to use cotton filters with 100% reduction in percent.

Authors: Mirmozaffari Mirpouya
Published: May 2019

Expert systems aim to employ expert skills for non-expert person. These designs simulate intellectual and practical performance of human making the performance of expert systems close to that of an expert human. Various expert systems have been proposed in medicine, thus this area is attracting attention. Most problems in modern medicine are very complicated and there is no logic reason for accurate decision making. To this end, doctors decide arbitrarily and variably. On the other hand, large volume of medical information makes decision making more difficult while modern technologies add to volume of information and make problems more difficult. Considering these problems, there is a great challenge in medical diagnosis which requires decision-making support systems. In this paper, an expert system is presented for diagnosis and treatment of nephrolithiasis in which knowledge required for diagnosis and treatment is stored as rules in the system knowledge base. If experts are absent, diagnosis and treatment can be done reliably. Expert systems can be used as decision support by the users. However, currently, they cannot replace experts.

Pola Tekstur Permukaan untuk Klasifikasi Mutu Ubin Teraso Menggunakan GLCM dan KNN
Authors: Wahyudi Doni Briyan , Kusrini Kusrini , Wibowo Ferry Wahyu
Published: May 2019

Ubin teraso adalah pelapis lantai ataupun tembok yang menggunakan bahan batu marmer, kristal kuarsa, granit, gelas, dan bahkan pelat logam. Industri ubin teraso tetap terjaga meskipun tergolong karya klasik, karena sifatnya yang mewah. Proses pengendalian mutu dilakukan dengan memeriksa tekstur permukaannya. Fitur tekstur dari permukaan ubin teraso bisa diekstraksi melalui pengolahan citra digital, sehingga bisa ditentukan nilai kehalusannya yang menyatakan sebagai produk layak jual atau gagal produksi. Penelitian ini melakukan analisis fitur gray level co-occurence matrix (GLCM) citra permukaan ubin teraso, yaitu angular second moment (ASM), contrast, inverse different moment (IDM), entropy, dan correlation. Nilai varians dan simpangan baku masing-masing fitur tersebut digunakan sebagai indikator kemampuan dan akurasi melakukan klusterisasi data. Algoritma k-nearest neighbor (KNN) digunakan untuk menerima masukan dari masing-masing lima fitur tersebut untuk didapatkan hasil pembelajaran maupun pengenalan dan dibandingkan dengan kondisi sebenarnya. Hasil akhir dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa dari kelima fitur GLCM terdapat empat fitur yang layak digunakan sebagai alat klusterisasi data pada mutu ubin teraso, yaitu ASM, IDM, entropy, dan correlation. Sementara fitur contrast dinyatakan tidak layak sebagai pembeda klasifikasi. Selain itu, pengenalan menggunakan KNN untuk klasifikasi mutu pada ubin teraso menghasilkan akurasi 85% bagi mutu “layak jual” dan 85% bagi mutu “gagal produksi”.Kata Kunci — GLCM, k-nearest neighbor, ubin teraso, kendali mutu, ekstraksi fitur teksturTerrazzo tiles are decorative covering materials for floor and wall consisted of quartz sand, marble, granite, glass, and metal coating. Nowadays, the terrazzo tile industry is maintained despite old fashioned, due to its luxurious nature. The quality control process is carried out by examining the surface texture. Texture features of the terrazzo tile surface can be extracted through digital image processing, so that the fineness value can be determined which states that it is a good product or production defects. This study analyzed calculation of the gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) features from the terrazzo tile surface image data, namely angular second moment (ASM), contrast, inverse different moment (IDM), entropy, and correlation. Variance values and standard deviations of each feature are used as accuracy indicators for data clustering. K-nearest neighbor algorithm (KNN) is used to obtain learning and recognition results and will be compared with actual conditions. The final results indicate that only four features are feasible to be used as data clustering tools, namely ASM, IDM, entropy, and correlation, while the contrast feature is considered inappropriate. In addition, usage of KNN for quality classification on terrazzo tiles produces 85% accuracy for all quality.Keywords—GLCM, k-nearest neighbor, terrazzo tiles, quality control, texture feature extraction

In this study we evaluated new mixing (θ and ψ) Pitzer parameters, and developed models for solution behavior and solid liquid equilibria for the following mixed systems: 1) KCl-AlCl3-H2O, 2) KCl-FeCl3-H2O, 3) KCl-CrCl3-H2O, 4) MgCl2-AlCl3-H2O, 5) MgCl2-FeCl3-H2O, 6) MgCl2-CrCl3-H2O, 7) CaCl2-AlCl3-H2O, 8) CaCl2-FeCl3-H2O, and 9) CaCl2-CrCl3-H2O at 25°C. The solubility modeling approach, implemented to the Pitzer specific interaction equations is employed. The values of the binary parameters for the binary sub-systems needed here to parameterize models for mixed systems are taken from our previous studies. Mixing solution parameters are evaluated in this study using activity (when available) and solubility data. Following an approach in our previous modeling studies on M(III) chloride and sulfate systems, in this work we accept that complex Al(III), Cr(III), and Fe(III) aqueous species do not exist in solutions. We test the new models by comparing model predictions with experimental data (activity data for unsaturated solutions and solubility data in ternary systems). The agreement between model predictions and experimental data is very good. Combining present parameterization, with our M(III) models developed previously we fully complete our at 25°C model for the 8th component system Na-K-Mg-Ca-Al(III)-Cr(III)-Fe(III)-Cl-H2O. The resulting model calculates solubilities and solution activities to high solution concentration within experimental uncertainty. Limitations of the model due to data insufficiencies are discussed. The resulting parameterization was developed for the Pitzer formalism based PHREEQC database.

The present work deals with the synthesis of multichromophores which strongly absorb the solar spectrum to functionalize the nanoparticle oxide semiconductor used in the hybrid cells. At first, we developed a material that forms a chromophore triphenodioxazine. We obtained some triphenodioxazines with high yields up to 70 percent. On the other hand, we have carried out many tests such as UV-Visible, Cyclic voltammetry for our molecules to check their electronic and optical properties. The results confirmed that these chromophores meet the criteria for use in photovoltaic cells. Finally, we have successfully realized photovoltaic cells with triphenodioxazine. The findings were very interesting since the photovoltaic conversion efficiencies ranged from 4.30% to 6.30%. The new synthesis strategy of these chromophores opens a way for the development of organic materials used for photovoltaics.

The essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation of aerial parts of Centaurea dimorpha Viv. were analyzed by means of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The main constituents were Caryophyllene oxide (09.88%), limonene (5.73%), tetradecanoic acid (5.68%), spathulenol (5.44%), methyl hexadecanoate (4.45%), and α-pinene (03.08%). To our best knowledge this is the first study of essential oils from the aerial parts of Centaurea dimorpha growing in Algeria. Moreover the essential oil and methanolic extract were screened for their possible in vitro antioxidant activity by DPPH free radical-scavenging test. The findings showed that the percentage inhibition is 10.67 and 77.01 respectively at a concentration of 1mole/L.

Authors: Kapranov Oleksandr
Published: May 2019

This article presents a qualitative study aimed at investigating the framing of political discourse associated with the EU visa liberalization with Ukraine. This study seeks to address the framing of the EU visa liberalization process in Ukrainian political discourse published online by several leading high-quality Internet news resources, e.g. 112ua, Censor.Net, or UNIAN. The corpus of the study is comprised of 34 articles that have been analysed from the vantage point of framing methodology developed by Entman (2004) and Dahl (2015). The results of the qualitative investigation reveal that Ukrainian political discourse associated with the EU visa liberalization with Ukraine is framed by means of such frames as the Building, the Divorce, the European Integration, the Game, the Home, the Hostage, and the Journey. These findings are further presented and discussed in the article.
Residential property price index in Croatia: from experimental to official statistics

Published: May 2019

The official statistics framework is based on internationally agreed standards, taking into account the core principles of impartiality, objectivity, professional independence, cost effectiveness, statistical confidentiality, minimisation of the reporting burden and high output quality. Since the latest 2007 global economic crisis, a growing demand for more, better and timelier data under limited resources for compilers and reporting agents has been observed. The concept of experimental statistics becomes more relevant, despite the lower quality in terms of coverage, data sources and harmonised definitions. The main aim of this paper is to present the methodological development of the residential property price index in Croatia from experimental to official statistics, as well as to show corresponding changes in time, which occurred due to the changes in methodological framework, institutional responsibility for compilation, coverage and data sources. A general conclusion of the paper is that publication of non-harmonized experimental statistics results, together with explanatory metadata, is better from the point of view of users than having nothing produced by official statistics.
Effects of changes in stock market index composition on stock returns: event study methodology on Zagreb Stock Exchange
Authors: Škrinjarić Tihana
Published: May 2019

This paper observes the short-run effects of stock market index composition changes on stock returns on the Zagreb Stock Exchange (ZSE). In that way, event study methodology is employed in order to estimate abnormal returns and compare them amongst three subsets of stocks: those leaving the market index, those entering it, and constantly included stocks. The research included 14 regular and extraordinary revisions of the market index in the period from January 2nd, 2015 until March 21st, 2018. The results have confirmed two research hypotheses: stock exclusions from the market index have a negative effect on stock returns on the ZSE, which is consistent with the price pressure hypothesis; and there exist asymmetric effects of index composition changes on stock returns. This is the first study of this kind on the Croatian stock market, thus more questions need to be answered in future research.

Species diversity is one of the most important indices used to evaluate the sustainability of forest communities. The sampling method and the number of plots are factors affecting the estimation of plant biodiversity. In the present study, effects of different inventory grids on estimation of tree species diversity were compared in semi-arid forests of Iran. There were selected 50 hectares of these forests representing the regional forests. Sampling procedures were carried out on circular plots (1,000m2) within inventory grids, with dimensions of 50 × 50 m (200 plots), 100 × 50 m (100 plots), 100 × 100 m (50 plots), 200 × 50 m (50 plots), 200 × 100 m (25 plots), and 250 × 200 m (10 plots). For each plot, the type of the species and the number of trees were recorded. Simpson (1-D), Hill (N2), Shannon-Wiener (H’), Mc Arthur (N1), Smith-Wilson (Evar) and Margalef (R1) indices were used to estimate the tree species diversity. The inventory grid was evaluated based on the precision and cost criteria (E%2 × T). The obtained sampling error values showed that the inventory grid consisting of 200 plots exhibited more accuracy for estimating the biodiversity indices. But based on the results of E%2 × T, the inventory grid with 25 plots was selected as the most appropriate one for estimating the tree species diversity in semi-arid forests. The results of this study can also serve to estimate the tree species diversity in other semi-arid forests of Iran.
