Published: August 2024

The term ‘’vulnerability’’ has been used more frequently in studies, surveys and official documents, seeking a better understanding of population groups, their needs and specificities. As it is a complex and multifaceted field of analysis, the most different areas of knowledge propose to analyze different perspectives of vulnerability. In this study, the construction was carried out from the social and environmental perspectives, aiming at an integrated analysis of social inequalities in the areas of study. The construction of the SEVI – Socio-Environmental Vulnerability Index, allows the ranking of the regions studied according to the existing vulnerability processes. The methodology was based on the choice and classification of indicators for the construction of a global index for the municipalities in the South Zone of Rio Grande do Sul from the integration into a GIS - Geographic Information System. The results demonstrate the complexity of situations of vulnerability for these regions, the contribution of the analyzed perspectives and the vulnerable populations. The use of methodologies to map these populations helps in decision-making processes and in the elaboration of policies committed to interrupting the processes of social inequality brought about by capitalism.
REGULAMENTAÇÃO DO ESTUDO DE IMPACTO DE VIZINHANÇA NA REGIÃO CENTRO-OESTE BRASILEIRA: “QUANDO NINGUÉM ESTIVER OLHANDO” X CONTROLE SOCIAL
Authors: Schvarsberg Benny , Kallas Luana
Published: August 2024

O Estatuto da Cidade (EC) possibilitou às cidades brasileiras utilizarem ferramentas e as institucionalizarem. Um grande levantamento realizado pelo Ministério das Cidades em 2006 identificou se os municípios obrigatórios implantaram seus Planos Diretores (PDs)e instrumentos da política urbana. Identificou-se que na Região Centro-Oeste brasileira somente 61 municípios e o Distrito Federal (DF) utilizavam o Estudo de Impacto de Vizinhança (EIV). A atual pesquisa realizou um novo levantamento no Centro-Oeste objetivando analisar a regulamentação do EIV no DF e nos 466 municípios, considerando fatores quantitativos e qualitativos para implementação do instrumento nas cidades e se há participação popular no processo de decisão do EIV nos municípios. A metodologia aplicada levantou PDs ou leis específicas que tratavam do EIV nas 467 Unidades Federativas (UFs) em sites das prefeituras, câmaras municipais e a legislação dos municípios de cada estado e do DF. Dessa forma, observou-se no Centro-Oeste que 127 UFs regulamentam o EIV, sendo que destes, apenas 35% utilizam a participação social do tipo Audiência Pública, ou seja, apenas de forma simbólica, pois a decisão fica à cargo do poder público, inexistindo o controle social. Nas outras 65% UFs não há participação popular, o que permite as prefeituras gerirem seus territórios “quando ninguém estiver olhando”, ou seja, sem transparência e conforme seus interesses.
INDICADORES DE QUALIDADE AMBIENTAL URBANA: UMA REVISÃO SISTEMÁTICA
Authors: Rosa Aline Machado de Farias , Barros Gonçalves de Souza Gabriel
Published: August 2024

Os espaços urbanos, desprovidos de planejamento territorial, são carentes de serviços essenciais de infraestrutura e saneamento, promovendo riscos ambientais com efeitos negativos à saúde humana. Para que estas localidades tenham seus riscos reduzidos e o desenvolvimento sustentável seja incorporado, é necessário realizar o diagnóstico da Qualidade Ambiental Urbana. Essa análise é constituída pela integração de índices e indicadores que irão delimitar as condições urbanas locais, servindo como alicerce para órgãos competentes na aplicação de políticas adequadas a gestão urbana local. Sendo assim, este artigo teve como finalidade revisar sistematicamente o uso de índices e indicadores em estudos sobre a Qualidade Ambiental Urbana.  A revisão sistemática foi conduzida nas plataformas de pesquisa Web of Science, Scopus e SciELO, buscando por artigos compreendidos entre o ano de 1945 até dezembro de 2020, sem restrição geoespacial. Os estudos selecionados foram analisados quanto ao uso dos índices de Condições Ambientais, Acesso a Serviços Urbanos e Socioeconômico. Com os resultados obtidos pode-se aferir que o índice de Condições Ambientais foi o mais abordado mundialmente, enquanto o menos utilizado foi o Socioeconômico. Além disso, foi notada a desatenção dos estudos científicos quanto às condições de esgotamento sanitário, limpeza urbana e serviços de manutenção, contemplados no índice de Condições Urbanas.

Published: August 2024

Antibiotic prescription pattern is described as a written directive from the physician to the dispenser on how the medication should be administered in order to ensure infection controlled. The aim of this study was to determine the antibiotics prescription pattern among pregnant women attending antenatal care in the Teaching Hospital for over an eighteen months period and a comparative in vitro evaluation of the mostly prescribed antibiotics during antenatal care was also done.

Fifty urine samples were collected from pregnant women visiting the same hospital for comparative analysis. Early morning midstream urine samples collected from the pregnant women were cultured on MacConkey and blood agar. The biochemical tests include urease, oxidase, indole, catalase, citrate tests and gram staining. The antibiotic susceptibility pattern was also determined.

A total of three hundred and four (304) patient prescriptions were evaluated, antibiotics prescribed were amoxicillin 93(27%), ampicillin/cloxacillin 15(4%), amoxicillin-Clavulanate 83(24%), ampicillin 3(0.9%), cefpodoxime 11(3.2%), cefixime 5(1.4%), cefuroxime 10(2.9%), erythromycin 28(8.2%), ofloxacin 7(2.0%), levofloxacin 11(3.2%), ciprofloxacin 6(1.7%), clarithromycin 1(0.3%), azithromycin 10(2.9%), clindamycin 1(0.3%), nitrofurantoin 21(6.1%) and metronidazole 39(11.3%). For the in vitro studies, seventy one (71) isolates were identified as follows E.coli 17 (24%) followed by Klebsiella spp 14(20%), Stapyhlococcus spp 13(18%), Streptoccocus spp 12 (17%), Proteus spp 9(13%), and Pseudomonas spp 6 (8%).

The findings of in vitro study confirmed that some of the antibiotics prescribed namely ampicillin/cloxacillin, amoxicillin/clavulanate, cefixime and cefuroxime did not provide infection control which may be due to inappropriate prescription or drug misuse.

Authors: Gawshinde Arpit Gawshinde
Published: August 2024

Paracetamol, also known as acetaminophen, is a painkiller that is popular throughout the world because it does not irritate the stomach. Paracetamol was first discovered to have both analgesic and antipyretic properties in the late nineteenth century. The aim of present work was to Formulate, develop and evaluate Paracetamol Tablets by Moisture Activated Dry Granulation (MADG) process to short manufacturing time and process variables as compared with convention process.

Colloidal anhydrous silica is used in the formulation to absorb the extra moisture present in the MADG process formulation. A total number of five formulations were prepared and weight of all tablets kept constant. i.e. 595 mg.

All the formulations resulted in acceptable limit. The final batch F3 (contained PVPK 3% and Kollidon 90F 4%) considered as optimized batch which gives the release up to 95.38 % in 30 min. All Pre-compression parameters like Carr’s Index, Hausner’s Ratio and Angle of Repose met the standard values indicating good flow properties. The average weight, friability and hardness were within compendia limits. Drug content uniformity was within acceptable limits. The result of stability study of the batch F3 showed that there was no significant change in Hardness, Friability, In-vitro Disintegration time, The optimized formulation batch F3 showed better drug release profile with other formulations.

The PCM tablets prepared by MADG process had advantages such as short manufacturing time and few critical formulation and process variables when compared with convention wet granulation process.

Authors: Saefullah Muhammad Iqbal , Wirajaya Asep Yudha , De Jesus Isac Da Costa , Ahmad Waqas
Published: August 2024

A text within literary works does not emerge from cultural and traditional voids. Islamic literary works such as hikayat play a role in conveying spiritual, moral, and religious values to the Malay-Archipelago community of that era. The objective of this research is to elucidate the Islamic values and moralities within the ancient manuscript of Hikayat Nabi Isa that remains relevant within the context of religious life in contemporary Indonesia. Hikayat Nabi Isa holds significant value and strength in introducing, teaching, and deepening the understanding of Islamic teachings to the community, hence it is crucial to explore it. This research employs a descriptive-qualitative method. The primary data source is the manuscript of Hikayat Nabi Isa from the collection of the National Library of France with the code Malayo-Polynesien 68. The manuscript is transliterated and then utilized as the research object. A textual approach is employed in this research. Data are gathered through literature review techniques. Data processing involves stages of description, analysis, and evaluation. The findings of Islamic values and moralities within the text of Hikayat Nabi Isa encompass three aspects. Firstly, the connection between humans and Allah. Secondly, ethics and morality in society. Thirdly, the wisdom of human life's sagacity.

Published: August 2024

The marriage of the Samin people in Lampung Province is conducted in a customary manner. The Samin people experience many obstacles in the process of registering their marriage officially through state institutions. The purpose of this article is to describe the Samin traditional marriage and then analyze the reasons why the Samin community conducts traditional marriages. This article uses a qualitative method, the object of research was conducted on the Samin community in Tulang Bawang Regency Lampung. Primary data sources were obtained directly from Samin traditional leaders and the community who performed traditional marriages. Secondary data sources were obtained through Samin guidebooks and journals related to Samin studies. Data collection techniques used are observation, interviews and documentation. The results showed that the marriage process of the Samin community in Tulang Bawang Regency was carried out through several stages including: (1) nyumuk, (2) ngendek, (3) nyuwito, (4) paseksen, (tingkep). Samin traditional marriage does not yet have authentic legality. The legal status of the marriage is only valid in the eyes of the customary law of the adherents but not in the eyes of Indonesian marriage law. The reasons why Samin people do not officially register their marriages are 1). The Samin organization has not been registered with the Directorate of Trust of the Ministry of Culture as a marriage registration officer 2). Samin leaders have not been registered with the Ministry because they do not have a Registered Certificate (SKT). 3) Their ancestors did not teach that marriage should be registered.
Effects of Flipped Explicit Reading Instruction on College EFL Trainees’ Reading Comprehension Proficiency
Authors: Dagne Yalew Getu , Yigzaw Filate Abiy
Published: August 2024

The flipped classroom, a contemporary model, and explicit reading instruction, a widely recognized conventional approach, both offer unique benefits and have their own place in education. This study aimed to investigate the effects of Flipped Explicit Reading Comprehension Instruction (FERCI) on college EFL trainees’ Reading Comprehension Proficiency (RCP) and its impact on course achievement test scores. Conducted at Injibara College of Teachers Education in Ethiopia, the study involved 53 participants from October 7 to February 6, 2023, utilizing a quasi-experimental pre-test-post-test non-equivalent group design. The participants were assigned into experimental (N=28) and control (N=25) groups. The experimental group received the course using FERCI, which involved providing educational content outside of the classroom through videos and readings before class, while the control group received explicit reading comprehension instruction (ERCI). Data were collected through RCP pre-tests, post-tests, and course achievement test scores. The results revealed that both FERCI and ERCI were significantly effective in enhancing RCP, with large effect sizes (eta squared = 0.93 for EG and 0.87 for CG) further supporting substantial improvements in both groups. However, both FERCI and ERCI had distinctive effects, with FERCI showing a significantly better (moderate effect size eta squared =. 464) impact on RCP test scores compared to ERCI.

Authors: You Ting
Published: August 2024

With the development of educational informatization, a large amount of data has been generated in the field of education through various platforms, which prompted research on educational big data among numerous researchers. The quasi-experimental research method has certain controllability. This study adopts the method of quasi-experimental research to conduct a semester of educational big data visualization experiments teaching students through the learning platform. The purpose is to explore the impact of educational big data visualization on students’ learning initiatives. Participants were divided into two different groups, namely an experimental group (52 people) and a control group (40 people) for a 4-month teaching experiment from February 2023 to June 2023. The results indicated that there was no significant difference in the mean value of the learning initiative between these two groups. However, the results for the pre-and post-tests showed one stronger effect on the experimental group and much less compared to the control group. The size effect of the experimental group was 0.314, but the control group was only 0.167. This means that the effect has been stronger for the experimental group than for the control group.
CEO duality and asymmetric behavior of operating costs
Authors: Bubeck Stephan Klaus , Hein Nelson
Published: August 2024

Management decisions have an effect on cost behavior, and the duality of the CEO makes it easier for managers to make decisions based on personal interests. In Brazil, the Code of best corporate governance practices (Instituto Brasileiro de Governança Corporativa [IBGC], 2023) recommends that the chief executive officer (CEO) should not hold the position of chairman or member of the board of directors. In view of this, this research aimed to evaluate the effect of CEO duality on the asymmetric behavior of the operating costs (OC) of Brazilian publicly traded companies. To this end, descriptive, documentary and quantitative research was carried out on a balanced sample of 178 companies in the period 2012-2021, and the data was analyzed using descriptive statistics and hierarchical linear regression. This study adopted the perspective of Jensen and Meckling's agency theory (1976), in which managers make decisions based on personal interests. The results showed that companies with dual CEOs had a higher degree of asymmetry in operating costs during periods of falling sales than companies without dual CEOs. Thus, these results may be related to more aggressive operating cost reduction practices carried out by managers with duality during periods of falling sales.

A Formal Analysis of the Mimblewimble Cryptocurrency Protocol with a Security Approach
Authors: Silveira Adrian , Betarte Gustavo , Luna Carlos
Published: August 2024

A cryptocurrency is a digital currency that enables online transactions for various products and services. Cryptocurrencies are deployed over public blockchains which have the transactions duplicated and dispersed across multiple nodes within a computer network. This decentralized mechanism is devised in order to achieve reliability in a network consisting of unreliable nodes. Privacy, anonymity and security have become crucial in this context. For that reason, formal and mathematical approaches are gaining popularity in order to guarantee the correctness of the cryptocurrency implementations. Mimblewimble is a privacy-oriented cryptocurrency technology which provides security and scalability properties that distinguish it from other protocols of its kind. Mimblewimble combines confidential transactions, CoinJoin and cut-through to achieve a higher level of privacy and security, as well as, scalability. In this work, we present and discuss these security properties and outline the basis of a model-driven verification approach to address the certification of the correctness of the protocol implementations. In particular, we propose an idealized model that is key in the described verification process. Then, we identify and precisely state the conditions for our model to ensure the verification of relevant security properties of Mimblewimble. In addition, we analyze the Grin and Beam implementations of Mimblewimble in their current state of development. We present detailed connections between our model and their implementations regarding the Mimblewimble structure and its security properties. Finally, we analyze the Litecoin soft-fork that enhances privacy over the blockchain based on Mimblewimble features.

PARA UMA EDUCAÇÃO QUE CAMINHE JUNTO COM AS CULTURAS JUVENIS
Authors: Silveira Juzélia de Morais
Published: August 2024

Nesta escrita problematizo, a partir de minha experiência como professora de arte do contexto escolar, pautada nos aportes da Cultura Visual, de que modo a pretendida valorização das referências culturais e estéticas dos estudantes têm sido contemplada no ensino de arte. Discorro sobre alguns entraves que se apresentam neste processo, tal como uma concepção sobre arte, cultura e estética ainda fortemente arraigada a ensinamentos oriundos de currículos pautados sobre a ótica de uma pedagogia tradicional. Com isso discuto como tal perspectiva pedagógica diante da cultura juvenil que invade as salas de aula, acaba também por reprimir aquilo que é fruto de uma produção cultural comum e que poderia promover uma educação com vistas à valorização dos saberes dos educandos.

Published: August 2024

Esse ensaio busca cartografar movimentos de pensamento/criação que se dão a partir de encontros com palavras, sementes, docências, linhas das mãos, de escritas e de vidas que atravessaram um percurso de pós-doutorado. A partir da noção de comum como encontro alegre, conexão que, pelo dissenso, aumenta as potências de agir, buscamos pensar que comunidades são possíveis de serem forjadas a cada vez a partir desses atravessamentos heterogêneos. Ao atentar não só ao que se cultivava nesse processo, mas também ao que se podia aprender/criar no contágio com o que escapava e pedia para traçar outras linhas, foram se forjando espaços de experimentação poética com palavras, sementes e germinações como modo de produzir refúgios para fabular mundos.

Ajung Village is one of the villages in Jember where the majority are farmers and generally depend on obtaining chemical fertilizers. On the other hand, there are youth who are members of Karang Taruna Persada Muda who have the potential to be developed through various activities, considering that currently, their activities are incidental. Therefore, training in making Liquid Organic Fertilizer (LOF) is a useful activity for developing youth and the resulting product can reduce dependence on chemical fertilizers. The methods used in this training activity are delivery of material and discussion, direct practice, and evaluation through questionnaires (pre and post-test). The evaluation results show that the making of LOF training increased the knowledge and insight of Karang Taruna youth in Ajung Village. It is hoped that in the future further training will be provided regarding marketing and manufacturing of other agricultural products.
Innovative design of moulds by additive manufacturing for sustainable processing of expanded polymers
Authors: Vedani Maurizio , Viganò Roberto
Published: August 2024

This present work explores how the Additive Manufacturing (AM) technique can be leveraged to create innovative moulds for expanded polymers (EPs). Traditional steam-chest moulding tools, typically made from cast aluminium alloys due to their high thermal diffusivity and good castability, can be replaced with lighter moulds. These new moulds are precisely designed and produced using laser-powder bed fusion technology, resulting in significantly reduced thermal capacity and optimised steam distribution throughout the part volume. The general design approach is outlined, and the performance of this innovative solution is demonstrated through a case study. Experimental tests on the prototype moulds and moulding equipment revealed substantial reductions in cycle times and energy consumption compared to traditional steam-chest moulding methods for producing the same product. The tests also demonstrate that the evolution of the moulds influences the machines currently used in the process. These could be revisited and redesigned to improve further the performance provided by the new AM moulds even more.
The Principles of the Issue of Resurrection According to the Propositions of Muslim Thinkers
Authors: HosseiniEskandian Abdullah , Babaei Ali
Published: August 2024

The issue of resurrection is one of the basic principles of divine religions that all the divine prophets had the mission to invite people to believe in the Day of Judgment after being called to worship the Only God. Among the divine religions, Islam has shown special attention to the question of resurrection and this basic principle has been discussed and pondered by many Muslim thinkers. In addition to the religious aspect, the issue of resurrection is of fundamental importance since the general nature of the human race is mixed with it and humans tend towards happiness and good fortune. In this article, an attempt is made to investigate the importance and necessity of the issue of resurrection, the nature of resurrection, the types of resurrection, the questions of resurrection and its proof based on the Islamic perspective, using a descriptive-analytical method. Apart from all the proofs that have been established to prove the issue of resurrection, it can be stated that human nature tends to an end beyond this material world that does not see himself limited in this world and sees a world beyond this material world in his horizon.

Despite Marriage Law No. 16 of 2019, underage marriages persist due to low education, economic hardship, and cultural norms. Using a qualitative approach, including observations, interviews, and document analysis, this research identifies the negative impacts on health, education, and psychological well-being, perpetuating poverty and social instability. Jasser Auda’s Maqasid Syari’ah framework, emphasizing flexibility and holistic welfare, provides a comprehensive solution. The study recommends stricter enforcement of marriage age laws, educational initiatives to promote awareness, economic support to alleviate financial pressures, and community engagement to change cultural norms. Enhancing health and social services is crucial. Integrating Maqasid Syari’ah with contemporary legal and social frameworks offers a robust approach to addressing underage marriage and promoting a just and supportive society.

This research aims to uncover the meaning of modern Muslimah identity, which is constructed by micro-celebrities through their accounts on social media such as Instagram. In addition, it also explores the motives that underlie a person to become a celebrity on Instagram. Using a phenomenological approach, data was collected through in-depth interviews with five informants, in addition to literature review and observation. The results revealed that the meaning of Muslimah identity is constructed by Instagram celebrities in three categories, namely: (1) The assertion of the definition of Muslimah is a Muslim woman who follows Islamic law, uses clothing as a cover for the aurat in accordance with Islamic law, the uploaded content displays positive content and does not expose the aurat, and in terms of endorsement, selecting the products received so as not to deviate from Islamic teachings becomes a necessity. (2) The motives of Muslimah celebgrams are divided into two, namely the motive of using Muslimah symbols and the motive of becoming a Muslimah celebgram on Instagram. In using Muslim symbols in the form of hijab, the motive is divided into two, namely the motive of cause and the motive of purpose. (3) Cause motives consists of fulfilling obligations as a Muslimah, encouragement from the family, and encouragement from the environment. The purpose motive consists of fulfilling religious obligations, protecting oneself, breaking the bad stigma against Muslim women, inspiring others, and improving oneself.

Currently, planet Earth cannot sustain the pace of exploitation of its natural resources, which tend to become products that, although they contribute to our well-being, are difficult to reuse and recycle. In the value chain for economic competitiveness and social prosperity, the growing needs for affordable access to energy are a priority. The energy supply is relevant because it overlaps with sustainable development, and must meet the requirements of energy security, social equity and reduction of environmental impact. Efforts at present are oriented towards an energy transition to mitigate global warming, mitigating greenhouse gas emissions through the decarbonization of energy systems, which involves moving from fossil fuels to sources with reduced or no emissions, such as renewables. The transition to cleaner and greener energy systems impacts lifestyles, livelihoods, societies and economies. Therefore, it is relevant to have a prospective vision to envision the future, encouraging reactions that tend to provide affordable access to clean energy to allow education and decent and supportive conditions for a hopeful future throughout the world, especially in rural areas with dispersed populations. while respecting the planet.

In this paper, we present a combined control system for wheelchairs based on bioelectricity sensors, aimed at enhancing the mobility range of individuals with rehabilitation patients. The approach leverages the capabilities of bioelectricity sensors to read both the action bioelectricity signals of the accessory eye organs (AEO) and mental power level, i.e. an EEG signal and an eye-EMG signal, providing an innovative solution for enhancing the control mechanism of wheelchairs, thereby improving mobility and independence for individuals with movement disorders. The system achieves this by comparing the sample library established ahead, processing the action bioelectricity signals of AEO, and converting them into combined control instructions for the wheelchair. By integrating it with the mental power level and obtaining multiple control instructions, the system's stability is significantly improved. This system enables the wheelchair to perform various movements such as left-turning, right-turning, forward moving, stopping, accelerating, and decelerating. Additionally, the control stability of wheelchair movements is enhanced. To optimize the sample library of AEO action signals, we employ a genetic algorithm that utilizes roulette selection with random acceptance to increase convergence speed. The individual fitness of the population is improved through parent crossover and sorting differential mutation operators. By optimizing the sample library based on bioelectricity sensors, the action signals are classified using eigenvalues, resulting in a further improvement in classification accuracy. The performance of the combined control system is evaluated by utilizing metrics such as accuracy rate, false activation rate, and misjudgment rate. The experimental results validate the excellent performance of the system. The wheelchair was successfully controlled to move towards the destination along a predetermined path using the combined control system. Overall, the combined control system expands the range of activities for rehabilitation patients.

Tithonia diversifoliais a plant from the Asteraceae family that, due to the large quantity of hydrogenated monoterpenes present in its essential oil, can be used to prepare a product capable of combating agricultural pests. Therefore, the aim of this study was to carry out a phytochemical screening of the components of the essential oil produced by hydrodistillation of the leaves of Tithonia diversifoliaand to verify its possible acaricidal applications in the control of the spider mite Tetranychus urticae (Koch) (Acari: Tetranychidae) and insecticidal applications in the control of the corn weevil Sitophilus zeamais (Motsch) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), both via fumigation. Gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry revealed the presence of 32.67% β-pinene (6,6-dimethyl-2-methylenebicycle, heptane), 24.74% α-pinene (2,6,6-trimethylbicycle, hept-2-ene) and 22.69% limonene (1-methyl-4-(1-methyleneyl)-cyclohexene), among other components, in the essential oil of T. diversifolia. Fumigation tests revealed 52% mortality of spider mites at a concentration of 20 µL/L air and 96% at 80 µL/L air. The insecticidal activity tests on the corn weevil showed no mortality, but the repellency tests on this same insect showed promising results close to 100% at a concentration of 10 µL/L air, suggesting further studies to implement its use in greenhouses to control spider mites and in silos to repel corn weevil due to its volatility.

The chloroplast (cp) genomes are valuable resource with multiple applications, encompassing species identification, phylogenetic reconstruction, and evolutionary investigations. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome sequence of Buchanania latifolia was de novo sequenced, assembled and annotated. The chloroplast genome of B. latifolia exhibits a typical quadripartite structure, with a total length of 160,088 bp, containing 88 protein-coding sequences (CDS), 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes, with an overall GC content of 37.7%. A total of 99 SSR loci and 63 repeat sequences were identified, which can be utilized for marker development, phylogenetic and population studies of B. latifolia. Codon usage analysis revealed a preference for Leu codons ending with A/U. Additionally, the study investigated IR boundaries, DNA polymorphism, positive selection suites, and phylogenetic position. Comparative analysis with five other species from the Anacardiaceae family confirmed the nearly identical and highly conserved chloroplast genome features of B. latifolia, which can be valuable for understanding the plastid evolution and evolutionary relationships within Anacardiaceae. Phylogenetic analysis reveals that B. latifolia is positioned at the base of Anacardiaceae, sister to Choerospondias axillaris, Lannea coromandelica, and Sclerocarya birrea. These findings could provide important genetic information for further research into breeding of Anacardiaceae, phylogeny, and evolution of B. latifolia.
