Albinism in F1 Hybrids Hinders Geneflow Between Cultivated Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) and the Tertiary Gene Pool Species, Cicer Pinnatifidum
Authors: Sharma Shivali , Lavale Shivaji Ajinath , Kilian Benjamin 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
Wild Cicer species, especially those in the tertiary gene pool, carry useful alleles for chickpea improvement. The aim of this study was to evaluate the crossability and geneflow between three chickpea cultivars (as female parents) and four cross-incompatible Cicer pinnatifidum accessions (as pollen parents) from the tertiary gene pool. Ten crosses were conducted. One fully developed healthy F1 seed was harvested in vivo from the ICC 4958 × ICC 17269 cross, but the seedling developed an albino phenotype at 4–5 days after germination. Unlike other crosses, those involving the cultivar ICCV 96030 generated a large number of pods with comparatively large ovules. One albino plantlet was obtained from the ICCV 96030 × ICC 17269 cross by embryo rescue. Crosses involving ICCV 10 resulted in flower drop and poor pod set. These variable genotype-specific responses of pod, ovule, and seed development indicate that genetic factors affect the formation of interspecific hybrids. Although pod and seed formation in these interspecific crosses can be improved, geneflow between these materials is hindered by a strong genetic factor conferring albinism in the F1 hybrids.

Abstract
Atomistic processes during pulsed-laser deposition (PLD) growth influence the physical properties of the resulting films. We investigated the PLD of epitaxial layers of hexagonal LuFeO3 by measuring the x-ray diffraction intensity in the quasiforbidden reflection 0003 in situ during deposition. From measured x-ray diffraction intensities we determined coverages of each layer and studied their time evolution which is described by scaling exponent β directly connected to the surface roughness. Subsequently we modelled the growth using kinetic Monte Carlo simulations. While the experimentally obtained scaling exponent β decreases with the laser frequency, the simulations provided the opposite behaviour. We demonstrate that the increase of the surface temperature caused by impinging ablated particles satisfactorily explains the recorded decrease in the scaling exponent with the laser frequency. This phenomena is often overlooked during the PLD growth.

Abstract
Basket clam soup, a popular Asian dish, is prepared by boiling clams in hot water. The soup is generally cloudy and considered more delicious as cloudiness increases. However, the identity of the whitening ingredients and their relationship with taste remain unclear. In this study, we aimed to identify the components that contribute to the white color of the boiled soup. The white component was precipitated with trichloroacetic acid and reacted positively with ninhydrin, indicating the presence of proteins. The proteins were separated using sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and an intense band was observed at 33 kDa. Peptide mass fingerprinting of this band using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation-time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry revealed the protein to be tropomyosin. Basket clam tropomyosin expressed and purified from Escherichia coli turned the extracted solution white, confirming that tropomyosin contributed to the white color of clam soup.

Abstract
In the photochemical UV-H2O2 advanced oxidation process, H2O2 absorbs UV light and is decomposed to form hydroxyl radicals (OH·), which are highly excited and reactive for electron-rich organic compounds and hence can degrade organic compounds. In the present work, the UV-H2O2 process was investigated to degrade ciprofloxacin (CIP), one of India's widely used antibiotics, from aqueous solutions using a batch type UV reactor having photon flux = 1.9 (± 0.1) ×10-4 Einstein L-1 min-1. The effects of UV irradiation time on CIP degradation were investigated for both UV and UV-H2O2 processes. It was found that about 75% degradation of CIP was achieved within 60 s with initial CIP concentration and peroxide concentration of 10 mg L-1 and 1 mol H2O2/ mol CIP, respectively, at pH of 7(±0.1) and fluence dose of 113 mJ cm-2. The experimental data were analyzed by the first-order kinetics model to find out the time- and fluence-based degradation rate constants. Under optimized experimental conditions (initial CIP concentration, pH and H2O2 dose of 10 mg L-1, 7(±0.1) and 1.0 mol H2O2 / mol CIP, respectively), the fluence-based pseudo-first-order rate constant for the UV and UV-H2O2 processes were determined to be 1.28(±0.0) ×10-4 and 1.20(±0.04) ×10-2 cm2 mJ-1 respectively. The quantum yields at various pH under direct UV were calculated. The impacts of different process parameters such as H2O2 concentration, solution pH, initial CIP concentration, and wastewater matrix on CIP degradation were also investigated in detail. CIP degradation was favorable in acidic conditions. Six degradation products of CIP were identified. Results clearly showed the potentiality of the UV-H2O2 process for the degradation of antibiotics in wastewater.
Method of Experimentally Identifying the Complex Mode Shape of the Self-Excited Oscillation of a Cantilevered Pipe Conveying Fluid

Published: December 2021

Abstract
The dynamics of a flexible cantilevered pipe conveying fluid have been researched for several decades. It is known that the flexible pipe undergoes self-excited vibration when the flow speed exceeds a critical speed. This instability phenomenon is caused by nonconservative forces. From a mathematical point of view, the system has a characteristic of non-selfadjointness and the linear eigenmodes can be complex and non-orthogonal to each other. As a result, such a mathematical feature of the system is directly related to the instability phenomenon. In this study, we propose a method of experimentally identifying the complex mode from experimentally obtained time histories and decomposing the linear mode into real and imaginary components. In nonlinear analysis, we show that the nonlinear effects of practical systems on the mode in the steady-state selfexcited oscillation are small. The real and imaginary components identified using the proposed method for experimental steady-state self-excited oscillations are compared with those obtained in the theoretical analysis, thus validating the proposed identification method.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Uric acid was once considered an effective endogenous antioxidant, but now more and more evidence shows that it may play a significant role in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular diseases.OBJECTIVES: It has not been clear that UA is a sign of poor prognosis or a risk factor for CVD. Our aim is to figure out the exact relationship between CVD and uric acid. METHODS: We studied 3356 publications in the past 44 years through MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane library searches, and selected 22 studies that met our inclusion criteria. RESULTS: The meta-analysis showed that hyperuricemia was associated with an increased risk of death from CVD (RR=1.37; 95% CI:1.29-1.45; I2=31.4%, P=0.157). Sensitivity analysis reviewed several potential sources of heterogeneity between studies, such as average SUA level, study location, and outcome indicators.

Abstract
Background: Canine Kobuvirus (CaKoV) and Canine Circovirus (CaCV) are viruses that infect dogs causing diarrheal symptoms that are very similar. However, there is no clinical method to detect a co-infection of these two viruses.Results: In this study, a duplex SYBR Green I-based quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay for the rapid and simultaneous detection of CaKoV and CaCV was established. CaKoV and CaCV were distinguished by their different melting temperature which was 86℃ for CaKoV and 78℃ for CaCV. The assay was highly specific, with no cross-reactivity with other common canine viruses and demonstrated high sensitivity. The detection limits of CaKoV and CaCV were 8.924 × 101 copies/μL and 3.841 × 101 copies/μL, respectively. The highest intra- and inter-assay Ct value variation coefficients (CV) of CaKoV were 0.40% and 0.96%, respectively. For CaCV, the highest intra- and inter-assay Ct value variation coefficients were 0.26% and 0.70%, respectively. In 57 clinical samples, positive detection rates of CaKoV and CaCV were 8.77% (7/57) and 15.79% (9/57), respectively. The co-infection rate was 7.02% (4/57). Conclusions: The duplex SYBR Green I-based real-time PCR assay established in this study is a fast, efficient, and sensitive method for the simultaneous detection of the two viruses and provides a powerful tool for the rapid detection of CaKoV and CaCV in clinical practice.

Published: December 2021

Background
The AIDS epidemic among young students is serious, and effective preventive interventions are urgently needed. Game-based intervention has become an innovative way to change healthy behaviors, and we have developed an AIDS educational game called AIDS Fighter · Health Defense.

Objective
In this study, we tested the effect of AIDS Fighter · Health Defense on young students in improving AIDS-related knowledge, stigma, and attitude related to high-risk behaviors in Southwest China.

Methods
A randomized controlled trial was conducted from September 14 to 27, 2020. In total, 96 students from 2 classes in a middle school were selected by stratified cluster sampling in Luzhou City, Southwest China. The students were randomly divided into the intervention group (n=50, 52%) and the control group (n=46, 48%). The intervention group played the AIDS educational game AIDS Fighter · Health Defense; the control group learned AIDS-related knowledge through independent learning on the QQ chat group. An AIDS-related knowledge questionnaire, a stigma scale, and an attitude questionnaire on AIDS-related high-risk behaviors were used to measure the effect of the AIDS educational game via face-to-face interviews. The user experience of the game was assessed using the Educational Game User Experience Evaluation Scale. The difference was statistically significant at P≤.05.

Results
After the intervention, the AIDS knowledge awareness rate (X̅ [SD], %) of the intervention and control groups were 70.09 (SD 11.58) and 57.49 (SD 16.58), with t=4.282 and P<.001. The stigma scores of the 2 groups were 2.44 (SD 0.57) and 2.48 (SD 0.47), with t=0.373 and P=0.71. The positive rate (X̅ [SD], %) of attitudes of high-risk AIDS behaviors of the 2 groups were 82.00 (SD 23.44) and 79.62 (SD 17.94), with t=0.555 and P=0.58. The mean percentage of the game evaluation was 54.73% as excellent, 31.45% as good, 13.09% as medium, and 0.73% as poor.

Conclusions
AIDS Fighter · Health Defense could increase AIDS-related knowledge among young students, but the effect of the game in reducing AIDS-related stigma and improving the attitudes of high-risk AIDS behaviors was not seen. Long-term effects and large-scale studies are needed to assess the efficacy of game-based intervention.

Brasil e Moçambique são países ligados pela mesma língua materna, por processsos de colonização, pela literatura, arte e imigração. Ao mesmo tempo, se constroem por bases históricas, culturais, etapas colonizatórias e trajetórias particulares. Em meio às suas dissonâncias e encontros, partilham histórias de vidas e desafios estruturais. O que pode Moçambique, com raízes em África, e a América Latina brasileira compartir e ensinar uma a outra? A educação tem sido uma linguagem referencial de comunicação entre ambos os países, e o contexto da Covid-19 muito os afetou nesse setor. Historicamente, Moçambique e Brasil intercambiam estudantes, especialmente pelo impulso fornecido pela Década Internacional dos Afrodescendentes (2015-2024), decretada pela ONU. A cooperação internacional África-Brasil/Brasil-África fortifica as bases de uma troca intelectual e coloboração sistêmica de um pacto Sul-Sul, em contante expansão e aprofundamento. Em março, Brasil e Moçambique decretaram a quarentena para seus cidadãos, com o encerramento das atividades escolares para evitar a propagação do novo coronavírus nos países. Nessa entrevista, concedida pelo Professor Doutor Jorge Ferrão, Reitor da Universidade Pedagógica de Maputo (UPM) - a primeira universidade pública criada no pós-independência - nos abre uma miríade de questões e diálogos importantes para pensarmos o que conecta e distancia as realidades moçambicanas e brasileira; seus respectivos desenvolvimentos político-sociais e suas particularidades; o impacto da pandemia na educação em Moçambique e como podemos pensar sobre novas propostas educacionais. Isso tudo ao nos contar sua trajetória profissional e como se entrelaçam com os eventos históricos.
