Old Russian Graffito Inscription in the Abbey of Saint-Gilles, South of France
Authors: Brun Anne-Sophie , Hartmann-Virnich Andreas , Ingrand-Varenne Estelle , Mikheev Savva M.
Published: March 2019

The abbey of Saint-Gilles-du-Gard near Arles in the south of France was one of the most prominent pilgrimage sites in medieval Europe. Recent archaeological investigation has shown that construction of the abbey church, one of the most significant Romanesque pilgrimage churches in southern France, began ca. 1170/1180. The lower church (crypt) with the tomb of St. Giles (Lat. Aegidius, Fr. Gilles) and some of the walls of the upper church belong to that period. A well-preserved Cyrillic graffito was discovered on a pier of the upper church, close to the spot where the tomb of St. Giles is located in the crypt below. The text contains a prayer with a common formula: GI POMЪZI | RABU SVЪ|EMU SЬMKЪ|VI NINOSLA|VICHIU ‘Lord, help your servant Semko, son of Ninoslav.’ Palaeographic and linguistic analysis shows that the graffito is of Russian origin. It was probably made at some time between 1180 and 1250 by a pilgrim travelling from Russia to Santiago de Compostela, and it is the most geographically remote Old Russian graffito inscription discovered so far in western Europe.
Sermons and Sermonizing in 18th-Century Russia: At Court and Beyond
Authors: Kislova Ekaterina I.
Published: March 2019

This paper is devoted to the question of the spread of court sermons in 18th-century Russian society. The author describes three types that had been formed by the 1740s: court, seminary, and parish homilies. The main question is how and by what means did the court homilies in Elizabeth Petrovna’s time spread the cultural models, thoughts, and ideas created by court preachers throughout Russian society as a whole? Did these texts penetrate traditional culture and how were they adopted? Who read the court sermons, apart from members of the court? To answer these questions, the author describes how court homilies were published and sold, and how they entered the manuscript tradition. The analysis of archival and published materials allows the author to conclude that in the second half of the 18th century, the court sermon was only beginning to penetrate the “traditional” culture. The genre spread primarily in the seminaries, where texts by court preachers functioned as a “library” of panegyrical and theological elements to be used by students and teachers in their own compositions. With few exceptions, the court tradition does not intersect with texts originating from Old Russian and classical theological traditions, although all such texts are called slovo (literally ‘word,’ i.e., ‘sermon’). However, by the end of the 18th century, the new genre became more widely disseminated, following the spread of seminary education and the increase in the number of priests educated in this tradition.
On the Basic Problems of the Category of Aktionsart in the Russian Language
Authors: Pálosi Ildikó
Published: March 2019

The article summarizes the basic questions of aktionsart (the status, content, and borders of the category) in the Russian language and describes the most relevant views on the problem. In the author’s opinion, the category of aktionsart is a semantic-word formation category, one that includes motivated verbs with formal markers of semantic change of the base verb, except for verbs of motion. Taking into consideration that word formation models are polysemic, the verb classes of aktionsart can be specified not by formal factors but by semantic ones. Consequently, the content of the category of aktionsart is determined by word formation and semantics together. Another key problem is the connection between the category of aktionsart and category of grammatical aspect and the sphere of word formation. The author joins the opinion of those linguists who consider aktionsart to be the lexical level of the macrocategory of aspect. The category of aktionsart is separated from the sphere of word formation by the regularity of verb formation. Regarding this criteria, as the author suggests, some verb formation models of low regularity should not be acknowledged as verb classes of aktionsart.

Authors: Andini Ayu Febri
Published: March 2019

Stres adalah gangguan atau kekacauan mental dan emosional yang bisa terjadi pada siapapun, termasuk pada kaum remaja. Di usia ini, bimbingan orang tua menjadi hal yang mutlak mengingat emosi anak yang masih labil dan efek lanjutan yang mungkin timbul akibat gangguan tersebut.Karena itulah pengetahuan akan beberapa faktor pemicu stres pada remaja perlu diketahui agar orang tua mengetahui pendekatan yang paling tepat digunakan pada anak.Kehidupan sekolah adalah salah satu faktor utama penyebab stres pada remaja. Tuntutan akademis yang dinilai terlampau berat, hasil ujian yang buruk, tugas yang menumpuk dan ekspektasi orangtua yang terlalu tinggi pada anak hanyalah beberapa contoh dari faktor ini. Demikian pula dengan lingkungan pergaulan, dimana teman bagi seorang remaja bisa jadi segalanya, bahkan melebihi keluarganya sendiri.Untuk remaja, pengaruh pergaulan teman sebaya juga turut menjadi andil untuk pertumbuhan perokok baru. Terkadang remaja menjadi perokok pemula karena adanya desakan dari teman-teman mereka untuk dapat diterima dalam pergaulan ataupun supaya dapat dipandang lebih keren oleh lawan jenisnya. Para remaja tersebut tentu belum mengerti benar mengenai bahaya yang dapat disebabkan oleh rokok ataupun penyakit yang dapat timbul karena rokok. Hal ini tentu harus menjadi perhatian tersendiri bagi para orang tua untuk dapat memberi pemahaman terhadap anak-anaknya.

Published: March 2019

Some main issues related to the management of ground water resources are frequently faced by communities living in coastal areas in Indonesia, especially in the city of Jakarta, such as large population, rapid industrial and business growth, availability of groundwater resource and limitation of PAM (water supply company) capability, and Jakarta's geographic position with its aquifer system bordered by to the coastal. Those fundamental issues caused the saltwater intrusion in Jakarta to fade further into the freshwater aquifers system. The purpose of this study was to analyze the extent of the distribution of saltwater contamination to coastal aquifers in Jakarta so that it could be utilized in the policy formulation of ground water management and clean water management. The method used in this research was literature study, the data used in the form of secondary data and modeling conducted by the open source program well known as FREEWAT.The modeling of salt water intrusion on coastal aquifer of Jakarta was conducted into five model scenarios, namely (1) reduction of 50% of ground-water use, (2) reduction of 50% of groundwater use, (3) existing groundwater use in 2012, (4) increase of 25% of groundwater use, and (5) increase of 50% of groundwater use. From the modeling results, they were obtained the distribution of saltwater contamination on each layer of the aquifer of Jakarta. In unconfined aquifer the existing condition is scenario 3 intrusion as far as 1,604 m, on scenario 1 there is an intrusion decrease of 38%, in scenario 2 there is an intrusion decrease of 13%, in scenario 4 there is an increase in intrusion by 17% and on scenario 5 increase intrusion by 25%. In upper confined aquifer, the existing condition, namely scenario 3, has occurred as much as 1.809 m intrusion, in scenario 1 there is an intrusion decrease of 23%, in scenario 2 there is an intrusion decrease of 8%, in scenario 4 there is an increase in intrusion by 19% and in scenario 5 in-crease intrusion by 26%.

Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography Signs of Local Dilatation Effect of a Micro-Stent on Schlemm’s Canal
Authors: Gillmann Kevin , Bravetti Giorgio Enrico , Mansouri Kaweh , Mermoud André
Published: March 2019

Introduction: The iStent inject® (Glaukos Corporation, CA, USA) is a relatively new device designed to be implanted ab-interno through the trabecular meshwork. This is, to the best of our knowledge, the first in-vivo description of a trabecular bypass device visualised with anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT), and report of its structural effect on Schlemm’s canal.

Case Report: A 74 year-old female patient suffering from long-standing primary open-angle glaucoma and nuclear sclerosis underwent cataract surgery combined with the implantation of two iStent injects®. Surgery was uncomplicated and achieved intraocular pressure (-1 mmHg) and medication (-2 molecules) reduction at 6 months. Under AS-OCT (Spectralis OCT, Heidelberg Engineering AG, Germany) the stent appears as a 300 μm long hyper reflective hollow device within the trabecular meshwork. Approximately a third of it protruded into the anterior chamber. Profound OCT signal loss was notable within the shadow of the device. A second AS-OCT section 500 μm beside the microstent shows a markedly dilated Schlemm’s canal, with a major diameter of 390 μm.

Discussions: This report confirms that AS-OCT is a suitable technique to assess microstent positioning, and provides a first report on the in-vivo appearance of a functioning stent. It also indicates that iStent injects® could have a tangible effect on adjacent portions of Schlemm’s canal with, in this case, a 220% increase in canal diameter compared to the observed average (122 μm). This suggests the IOP-lowering effect of trabecular bypass devices could rely on a  dual mechanism involving Schlemm’s canal dilatation.
Role of Ultrasound in Detection of Abruptio Placentae and its Clinical Correlation
Authors: Gurung Sangeeta Devi , Shrestha Junu , Sharma Prakash
Published: March 2019

Introduction: Abruptio placentae is one of the major complications in second half of pregnancy. It accounts for 0.4-1 % of all deliveries. With the advent of ultrasonography, though abruptio placentae has been diagnosed however the sensitivity is less. Those patients clinically suspicious of abruption placenta with negative ultrasound findings can have positive intrapartum findings suggestive of abruptio. Fetal outcome is associated with the gestational age. Preterm deliveries with abruption have higher incidence of perinatal morbidity and mortality as compared to term pregnancies.Methods: It is a prospective study conducted in Manipal Teaching Hospital, Pokhara from July 2017 to July 2018. All the cases of more than twenty eight weeks gestation, singleton pregnancies without preexisting maternal medical diseases suspicious of abruption placentae were included in the study. Ultrasonological and intrapartum findings were recorded. Data was analyzed using SPSS (VERSION16).Results: Out of forty patients presented with per vaginal bleeding, sixteen were diagnosed as placental abruption either clinically or ultrasonographically. Only ten patients had positive ultrasound findings of retroplacental clot or subchorionic hemorrhage. Out of six patients with negative ultrasound findings, only four had positive Intrapartum findings suggestive of abruption placenta. The specificity (100%) of ultrasound in diagnosing abruption was more than the sensitivity (71.43%) and the accuracy was 75%.Conclusion: Ultrasound is less sensitive in diagnosing abruption placenta and the lesser the gestational age, the more in the increase in perinatal morbidity and mortality.

Authors: Kononenko Olga , Watanabe Hiroyuki , Stålhandske Lada , Zarelius Ann , Clausen Fredrik , Yakovleva Tatiana , Bakalkin Georgy , Marklund Niklas
Published: March 2019

Background/Objectives:

Motor impairment induced by traumatic brain injury (TBI) may be mediated through changes in spinal molecular systems regulating neuronal plasticity. We assessed whether a focal controlled cortical impact (CCI) TBI in the rat alters expression of the Tgfb1, c-Fos, Bdnf, and Gap43 neuroplasticity genes in lumbar spinal cord.

Approach/Methods:

Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats ( n = 8) were subjected to a right-side CCI over the anterior sensorimotor hindlimb representation area or sham-injury ( n = 8). Absolute expression levels of Tgfb1, c-Fos, Bdnf, and Gapd43 genes were measured by droplet digital PCR in ipsi-and contralesional, dorsal and ventral quadrants of the L4 and L5 spinal cord. The neuronal activity marker c-Fos was analysed by immunohistochemistry in the dorsal L4 and L5 segments. The contra- vs. ipsilesional expression pattern was examined as the asymmetry index, AI.

Results:

The Tgfb1 mRNA levels were significantly higher in the CCI vs. sham-injured rats, and in the contra- vs. ipsilesional dorsal domains in the CCI group. The number of c-Fos-positive cells was elevated in the L4 and L5 segments; and on the contralesional compared to the ipsilesional side in the CCI group. The c-Fos AI in the dorsal laminae was significantly increased by CCI.

Conclusions:

The results support the hypothesis that focal TBI induces plastic alterations in the lumbar spinal cord that may contribute to either motor recovery or maladaptive motor responses.
Nadia Boulanger: "In the midst of the stars"
Authors: Baeta Dominique Marie
Published: March 2019

Nadia Boulanger is the French performer/teacher who changed the landscape of American music. Under the mentorship of her father, Ernest Boulanger, and the tutelage of musical genius, Gabriel Fauré at the Paris Conservatory, Nadia Boulanger had an excellent education and earned high honors as a student of organ and composition. However, early in her life Boulanger decided to turn her full focus to teaching. Among her most outstanding American composition students are Aaron Copland, Walter Piston, Roy Harris, Philip Glass, and Virgil Thomson. Student testimonials and class notebooks shed light on her teaching. Nadia Boulanger taught with a combination of rigor and passion, successfully mentoring a generation of aspiring composers and performers. Her profound imprint on American music is recognizable in the fact that almost all American composers of note in the 20th century studied with Nadia Boulanger either in Paris or during her residency in Boston. It is possible to trace parallels between her education and compositional style, and her teaching of composition. This paper investigates how Nadia Boulanger taught, why she was successful, and how her early education affected her future as a composition teacher.
Bullying Among Middle School Students with Disabilities
Authors: McNeal Breanna , Espelage Dorothy
Published: March 2019

This investigation examined the association between bully victimization and willingness to intervene in bullying situations among students with and without disabilities. Through the use of self-report surveys, middle school students (n = 1005) participated in the study. The majority of students with disabilities reported having a Specific Learning Disability, and the sample included 49% male students and 44% Caucasian students. Results indicated that there was no significant effect for disability status on willingness to intervene; however, students who were bullied were more willing to intervene compared to youth with low rates of victimization. Students with disabilities who were victimized at high rates reported greater willingness to intervene in bullying situations compared to students with disabilities who reported lower rates of victimization and students without disabilities. These findings suggest that students with disabilities play a critical role in supporting other students who are being victimized by intervening to help them.
Impregnating Activated Carbon with Iron Salts to Increase Hydrogen Sulfide Removal
Authors: Hull Morgan
Published: March 2019

Hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) emissions from landfills negatively impact surrounding communities. In addition to an unpleasant, rotten-egg odor, inhalation of the gas can cause respiratory distress and irritation. Peak emissions are released from C&D landfills through the decomposition of gypsum drywall. Current removal technologies are costly and often ineffective. The goal of this research was to develop a cost-effective mat geared toward H₂S removal. Preliminary research revealed an increase in adsorption capacity through the addition of iron salts, FeCl3 and FeSO4, to activated carbon at a 5:1 carbon to iron ratio. To evaluate the effect of heat treatments on iron oxide formation, and subsequent adsorption capacity, samples were divided into heat treatment groups of 250ºC, 450ºC, and 650ºC. Samples were flushed with 100 ppm of H₂S under N₂ at 250 ml/min for two hours. Over this time duration, samples subjected to higher temperature heat treatments showed increased adsorption capacity. All heat treated samples demonstrated higher adsorption compared to the baseline non-heat treated samples. Additional research will be conducted to assess the effect of heat treatments above 650ºC.
Graphene Support Effects on Palladium Catalyzed Reactions
Authors: Dreyer Kathleen
Published: March 2019

Palladium catalysts are often anchored to a support, such as graphitic carbon, to increase their overall surface area and facilitate catalytic reactions. There is a potential for interaction between the support and the catalyst, which can affect such reactions. At a certain palladium size threshold, it is hypothesized that the effects of the support on reactions on Pd are negligible. To determine this threshold, the Pd catalyst size and shape were varied (size was varied in the number of layers and number of Pd atoms, while shape ranged from hemispherical to spherical). The Pd clusters ranged from 2-5 layers and 38-293 atoms. Also, the graphene support was functionalized to different extents to test its effect on catalytic reactions on Pd. Initially, adsorption reactions of H*, O*, C*, OH*, and CH* onto supported Pd were tested to determine the effects of catalyst shape and size on the binding energy of such adsorbates. Periodic density functional theory calculations were used to determine these binding energies on bare Pd, Pd on a pure graphene support, and Pd on graphene functionalized with oxygen and hydroxide. These tests revealed that smaller Pd particles (about 100 atoms or fewer) are influenced by the support, showing large shifts in adsorbate binding energy from the pure graphene to the functionalized graphene. This shift in binding energy indicates that there are major changes in the catalytic behavior of sites upon which the adsorption reaction was tested, meaning that sites near the Pd-graphene interface might be affected by the support.
Modelling financial distress of Russian industrial companies, or What bankruptcy analysis can tell
Authors: Mogilat Anastasia N.
Published: March 2019

We develop an econometric method for estimating risks of financial distress among Russian industrial companies. It deals with international experience in the field of financial stability analysis as well as with the features of Russian data, including the following two. Firstly, bankruptcy is a rare event in the sample of Russian industrial companies. Secondly, not all of the companies become bankrupt by economic reasons. At the same time, not all of the companies that face financial problems become bankrupt. We have tried the developed method using a wide sample of Russian companies (appr. 97 000 firms a year, more than a million firms all in all). As a result, the method shows a significant shift in the ability of the model to predict financial distress risks in comparison to other suitable methods. Results and conclusions made in the paper can help clarify anti-crisis macroeconomic policy as well as reveal Russian industries to focus on.
Food Adulteration Awareness : A Powerful Weapon to Combat the Food Quality Contamination
Authors: Malik Sujata
Published: March 2019

In India, food contamination has become a serious problem now-a-days. Consumer education and awareness is considered as the need of the hour. Adulteration like corruption has become rampant with alarming rate. The government knows that most of the spices, dal, ghee, milk sugar, tea etc are adulterated. The nature of contaminants is often impure, unhygienic, harmful, and detrimental to public health like adding the urea to milk, duplicate products often sold for the products of reputed brand, cold drinks like Pepsi, Coca cola etc and unhygienic substances, dal with stone bits, tea garnished by saw dust, turmeric mixed with chromate powder, chilly powder mixed with red colour and even fruits vegetables and cereals sold in market often having high level of toxic metals like lead, nickel, cadmium etc.
Adulteration of food stuffs is commonly practised in India by traders due to consumers’ behaviour. They want to buy the food stuffs at lower price as possible as lower. The sellers now try to meet the needs of the buyers and their purchasing habit/tendency. This tendency of purchasing the stuffs motivates the sellers and traders to sell the adulterated food stuffs in the markets. Despite of ISI or Agmark certification mandatory for all edible items and food adulteration laws, food contamination has been rising at alarming rate especially in India. To encounter this ticklish situation, consumer awareness may play a vital role to combat the prevailing adulteration from a right perspective with the help of mass media and educational activities in school or colleges.

Authors: DÜZYER Şebnem
Published: March 2019

Conductive nanofibers can be produced by

different methods. In this study, four different methods to fabricate

conductive nanofibers were explained and supported with experimental results. Nanofibers

were made conductive by fabricating nanofibers from intrinsically conductive

polymers (polyaniline/polyethylene oxide nanofiber production), coating the

non-conductive nanofiber mat with a conductive material (copper electroplating

of polyacrylonitrile nanofibers), adding a conducting material (carbon black

nanoparticles, silver nanoparticles, ionic liquid) into the spinning solution, and

heat treatment of the nanofiber mat (carbon and ITO nanofiber production). The

surface and the electrical properties of the nanofibers were investigated. The

advantages and disadvantages of the methods were discussed in detail. The

results showed that conductive nanofibers can be successfully produced with

different electrical conductivities depending on the method and the material. 
SUSTENTABILIDADE AMBIENTAL NO PROCESSO DE PRODUÇÃO E DISTRIBUIÇÃO DE REFEIÇÕES EM UNIDADES DE ALIMENTAÇÃO E NUTRIÇÃO: GERAÇÃO E VIABILIDADE DA COMERCIALIZAÇÃO DOS RESÍDUOS RECICLÁVEIS
Authors: Kinasz Tânia Regina , Ramos Nathane Beatrys dos Santos
Published: March 2019

Food Services generate solid waste from the production process and distribution of meal. The raw material, after a rational flow, is transformed into meals for consumption generating solid waste of variable composition and quantity. Waste recovery actions in the recycling and selective collection in these services act as inhibitors of the inadequate disposal of these wastes in the environment, contributing to environmental sustainability. The objective of this study is to analyze the generation and viability of commercialization of recyclable solid waste in Food Services of companies located in Cuiabá and Várzea Grande, Mato Grosso – Brazil. This is a cross-sectional exploratory study with a convenience sample. The analysis of the generation of residues was carried out using the weighing method and generation indices using descriptive statistics. In order to verify the economic potential of recyclable waste, the value of intermediate consumption was used and sales price data were obtained by means of the publication "Compromisso Empresarial para Reciclagem" CEMPRE. It was found that in six services the largest part of waste was made of plastic, and in two services it was paper and cardboard. The generation of aluminum was more significant in one service, being the residue that added more economic value in the commercialization. The generation of glass and tetra pack packaging were not significant, and the recycling of both is not of interest to the scavengers. The results indicate that the commercialization of recyclable solid waste is viable.
Ocjena razvitka bankovnih osiguranja u Republici

Authors: Ploh Matija
Published: March 2019

Cilj ovog rada je usporediti i
ocijeniti razvijenost bankovnih osiguranja, kao modela suradnje banaka i osiguravajućih
društava u distribuciji proizvoda osiguranja putem banaka, u izabranim
europskim državama i u Republici Hrvatskoj. Uz navedeno, u radu se prikazuju
teorijske značajke bankovnih osiguranja te navode prednosti i nedostaci
bankovnih osiguranja. Za razliku od razvijenih europskih država, gdje životna
osiguranja distribuirana putem bankovnih osiguranja čine preko 60 % udjela u
zaračunatoj premiji životnih osiguranja, na hrvatskom tržištu taj udjel iznosi
oko 36 % iz čega se zaključuje kako je tržište bankovnih osiguranja u Republici
Hrvatskoj još uvijek nerazvijeno te ima veliki potencijal daljnjeg rasta.
Usporedbom zaračunate premije zaključuje se kako se bankovno osiguranje brže
razvija u području životnih osiguranja, a sporije u području neživotnih
osiguranja. To je u skladu s trendom i strukturom u ostalim razvijenim
europskim zemljama.

Realizou-se uma pesquisa bibliográfica, a partir da proposta teórico-metodológica de Gallo, para o ensino de filosofia. Não basta a existência da disciplina no currículo das escolas e a necessidade do exercício do filosofar, mas é preciso pensar no método que possibilite a formação da subjetividade e a produção novos conceitos e conteúdos e que mobilize a construção de novos saberes e fazeres. Concluiu-se que uma inspiração metodológica, para o ensino de filosofia, deverá ter em conta a realidade de cada instituição, bem como a habilidade de cada professor para refazer e adaptar a proposta por meio de um trabalho constante de construção da própria Filosofia, que estimula o pensamento ético-crítico.

Authors: Madzgharashvili Giorgi
Published: March 2019

According to the research, for improving the properties of unripe and partly sour honey, its concentration can be achieved by increasing the evaporation surface area of the products to be processed in vacuum conditions as well as in an open boiler under the recommended mode for heating honey (up to 45 °C). To stabilize fruits and accelerate the process of concentration in the liquids as well as mechanical mixtures of liquids for jams and fruit purees, it is recommended to premix the pulp with food sugar enzymatic hydrolysate (invert sugar), then obtain the mix at relatively moderate temperature (55-60°C), for which the intensive thickening technology has been developed using the above-mentioned method (Copyright of deposition #5870,2014, “Sakpatenti”) and easily oxidizable substances of fruits are protected in gaseous nitrogen stream. Due to these changes, honey, invert sugar syrup, fruit juices and fruit pulp preserve their original properties, hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) content in the finished product was within 0.5-5.0mg/kg, decrease of water content was 17-20 mass % in an hour, if the liquid mass concentration of the mixture was 23-64 mass%. This paper contains 1 table, 7 figures and 6 literary sources. Materials of the research, which formed the basis for the development of new technology, have not been published in any other source of scientific information.
HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENTS IN CARBON SOURCES, BIOMASS, FOSSILS, BIOFUELS AND BIOTECHNOLOGY REVIEW ARTICLE
Authors: Anastassiadis Savas G.
Published: March 2019

Since early human history and existence energy rich plants, wood and forest cellulosic material have been used for fire, light, heating, cooking and other daily activities. Fossil energy was the foundation of our modern society and industrialization since last two centuries, while exploration and exploitation of oil reserves and petrochemistry have largely shaped 20th century. Increasing concerns on environmental pollution, accelerated global warming, and global climate changes, continuing world's crude oil (fossil fuels) consumption and depletion, as well as energy security and energy crisis caused by daily burning large amounts of fossil fuels, led to the attraction, search and development of renewable, carbon-neutral, economically viable alternative energy sources, such as biofuels, slowly displacing petroleum fuels. In continuously growing human population reaching about 10 billion in 2050, various renewable energy sources are promoted and developed, to ensure rising energy demands in a world running out of fossil energy sources. Biofuels are produced from any kind of available biomass and categorized based on utilized carbon resources into first-, second- and third-generation. Nevertheless, biofuels’ future outlook is though beset by uncertainty. Hereby, various issues and concerns related to fossils and renewable biofuels are described and analyzed in present review article.

The aim of this study was the management of potato virus Y (PVY) in potato cv. Desiree through chemical and non-chemical methods. The experiment was carried out at the New Developmental Farm (NDF), The University of Agriculture, Peshawar during spring season, 2014 under field conditions. One of the major objectives of the experiment was to assess the effectiveness of the treatments application in their individual state as well as in combinations under field conditions. The treatments were mineral oil, insecticide, biocide and their combinations. Among various treatments, Diver was effective with disease severity level (1) and % disease incidence (40) in individual state and in combination (Diver + Confidor) and (Diver + Confidor + Neem extract) gave good results with % disease incidence (33.33) and with disease severity level (1). Neem extract was found to be less effective when used individually with % disease incidence (56.66) and with disease severity level (3), whereas Confidor when applied individually was more effective than Neem extract with % disease incidence (50) and with disease severity level (2). Moreover Diver in combination with Neem extract was found to be less effective in management of PVY as compared to Diver in combination with Confidor with % disease incidence (40) and disease severity level (1). Three aphid species were found in the field i.e Myzus persicae (Sulzer), Aphid gossypii (Glover) and Macrosiphum euphorbiae (Thomas). In case of aphid’s population, Confidor was more effective in reducing aphid’s population as compared to Diver and Neem extract. Finally, it can be concluded that Diver alone was more effective in the management of PVY. However in combination, Diver with Confidor significantly managed PVY under field conditions
