Identifying communities from multiplex biological networks by randomized optimization of modularity
Authors: Didier Gilles , Valdeolivas Alberto , Baudot Anaïs 
Published: November 2018

The identification of communities, or modules, is a common operation in the analysis of large biological networks. The Disease Module Identification DREAM challenge established a framework to evaluate clustering approaches in a biomedical context, by testing the association of communities with GWAS-derived common trait and disease genes. We implemented here several extensions of the MolTi software that detects communities by optimizing multiplex (and monoplex) network modularity. In particular, MolTi now runs a randomized version of the Louvain algorithm, can consider edge and layer weights, and performs recursive clustering. On simulated networks, the randomization procedure clearly improves the detection of communities. On the DREAM challenge benchmark, the results strongly depend on the selected GWAS dataset and enrichment p-value threshold. However, the randomization procedure, as well as the consideration of weighted edges and layers generally increases the number of trait and disease community detected. The new version of MolTi and the scripts used for the DMI DREAM challenge are available at: https://github.com/gilles-didier/MolTi-DREAM.
Mapping targets for small nucleolar RNAs in yeast

Published: November 2018

Background: Recent analyses implicate changes in the expression of the box C/D class of small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) in several human diseases. Methods: Here we report the identification of potential novel RNA targets for box C/D snoRNAs in budding yeast, using the approach of UV crosslinking and sequencing of hybrids (CLASH) with the snoRNP proteins Nop1, Nop56 and Nop58. We also developed a bioinformatics approach to filter snoRNA-target interactions for bona fide methylation guide interactions. Results: We recovered 241,420 hybrids, out of which 190,597 were classed as reproducible, high energy hybrids. As expected, the majority of snoRNA interactions were with the ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs). Following filtering, 117,047 reproducible hybrids included 51 of the 55 reported rRNA methylation sites. The majority of interactions at methylation sites were predicted to guide methylation. However, competing, potentially regulatory, binding was also identified. In marked contrast, following CLASH performed with the RNA helicase Mtr4 only 7% of snoRNA-rRNA interactions recovered were predicted to guide methylation. We propose that Mtr4 functions in dissociating inappropriate snoRNA-target interactions. Numerous snoRNA-snoRNA interactions were recovered, indicating potential cross regulation. The snoRNAs snR4 and snR45 were recently implicated in site-directed rRNA acetylation, and hybrids were identified adjacent to the acetylation sites. We also identified 1,368 reproducible snoRNA-mRNA interactions, representing 448 sites of interaction involving 39 snoRNAs and 382 mRNAs. Depletion of the snoRNAs U3, U14 or snR4 each altered the levels of numerous mRNAs. Targets identified by CLASH were over-represented among these species, but causality has yet to be established. Conclusions: Systematic mapping of snoRNA-target binding provides a catalogue of high-confidence binding sites and indicates numerous potential regulatory interactions.

Use of Chitinolytic Bacteria as Biological Control of Colletotrichum capsici on Chili PlantsColletotrichum capsici is known as the causal agent of anthracnose disease in chili plant and may cause reduction of crop yield. Chitinolytic bacteria, namely Serratia marcescens KAHN 15.12, Bacillus thuringiensis SAHA 12.12, and BAE 36 were reported to have antagonistic activity against C. capsici. Therefore, a study was conducted to determine the potential of chitinolytic bacteria on controlling C. capsici on chili plants in greenhouse experiment. Three bacterial isolates used as biocontrol agent was formulated by using talcum as carrier materials. The methodologies consisted of characterization of bacterial isolates, formulation of biocontrol agent, viability test of bacterial isolate, efficacy of biocontrol agents in the laboratory and in the greenhouse. Disease severity in the laboratory reached 64% when chili treated with isolate formulation of BAE 36. In the greenhouse, BAE 36 isolate formulation and consortium formulation were able to suppress infection of C. capsici; each was indicated by disease incidence of 25% and 50%, respectively. These results indicated that chitinolytic bacterial formulations could be potencial as biocontrol agents of C. capsici.

Published: November 2018

Humans are created interdependent and complement each other, as well as mutual respect and respect that is what is called a social creature, and live in pairs between men and women to continue offspring, which is a natural human nature that has been hereditary. But in reality, in social life, a woman often gets inhumane treatment, be it in public life or domestic life, is treated rudely, and impressed as not considered, women are very vulnerable to violence, whether physical violence, psychic violence, violence sexual even neglect of household. Or even men do not respect women in the realm of the outside or inside the dwelling. Result in a significant difference to gender equality itself. The most important and protected women's rights are freedom, being treated equally in the eyes of law, teaching and education is absolute, as well as health, legal certainty and justice and legal certainty. Social ethics arises in everyone, according to their nature and character. Human nature can be seen from their actions in treating and respecting others, especially treating the opposite sex, not in accordance with ethics and social sense, then the person is considered disrespectful to others. The literature study is the method used in this study is to have a purpose to know gender and its equality be the cause of violence against women, and its relation to social ethics. The result is a patriarchal culture that assumes that men as rulers, while women are in a weak position or are perceived as "male" owners, and social ethics greatly affect respect for women, where social ethics strongly determines one's behavior and how to respect and respect for women's rights.

Authors: Ibrahim Mazen 
Published: November 2018

Abstract
A pot experiment was conducted to study the extent of changes occurring in the nutrients, chlorophyll and protein of plants grown in cotton/alfalfa mixed culture as affected by inoculation with indigenous arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). The experiment consisted of mycorrhizal treatments (with and without AMF inoculation) and three planting patterns (cotton monoculture, alfalfa monoculture, cotton/alfalfa mixed culture). Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) inoculum previously isolated from a rhizospheric soil of cotton, was a mixture of Glomus intraradices, G. viscosum, and G. mosseae. Results showed that total chlorophyll and protein concentrations, and nutrients content were higher in AM cotton plants compared with the non-AM control. Mixed culture had a positive effect on all the above parameters in cotton shoot. The highest values were noted in AM plants in the mixed culture. Improved chemicals and biochemical constituents in cotton led to an increase in dry matter production. The highest dry matter was observed in the AM mixed culture, and was significantly higher by 1.4 times than that of non-AM monoculture.

Abstract
Current state and development of land degradation processes based on soil monitoring system in Slovakia is evaluated in this contribution. Soil monitoring system in Slovakia is consistently running since 1993 year in 5-years repetitions. Soil monitoring network in Slovakia is constructed using ecological principle, taking into account all main soil types and subtypes, soil organic matter, climatic regions, emission regions, polluted and non-polluted regions as well as various land use. The result of soil monitoring network is 318 sites on agricultural land in Slovakia. Soil properties are evaluated according to the main threats to soil relating to European Commission recommendation for European soil monitoring performance as follows: soil erosion and compaction, soil acidification, decline in soil organic matter and soil contamination. The most significant change has been determined in physical degradation of soils. The physical degradation was especially manifested in compacted and the eroded soils. It was determined that about 39% of agricultural land is potentially affected by soil erosion in Slovakia. In addition, slight decline in soil organic matter indicates the serious facts on evaluation and extension of soil degradation processes during the last period in Slovakia. Soil contamination is without significant change for the time being. It means the soils contaminated before soil monitoring process this unfavourable state lasts also at present.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of gas transit pipeline temperature on soil moisture, soil temperature and yield of harvest crops. The study area was located in the village Ivanka pri Nitre (Nitra District, Southwestern Slovakia). Soil type in the site is Orthic Brown Chernozem. Temperature of the transported gas increased the soil temperature in the range of 2.07°C to 3.4°C measured in a depth ranging from 250 mm to 350 mm above the gas lines. The temperature also reduced soil moisture by 1.27‒3.18 percentiles of weight. Yield of the winter wheat grown above the gas lines was higher by 9.40% in 2004 and by 13.06% in 2006. Yield of the sunflower grown above the gas lines was higher by 8.05% in 2005. In treatment 1, organic fertilisation in a dose of 50 t/ha affected the yield of the winter wheat above the gas pipeline and the yield increased by 13.95% in 2004.

Published: November 2018

Abstract
The study of Rossby solitary waves are of great significance in physical oceanography, atmospheric physics, water conservancy project, military and communications engineering, etc. All the time, in the study of Rossby solitary waves, people have been focusing on integer order models. Recently, fractional calculus has become a new research hotspot, and it has opened a new door to research atmospheric and ocean. Thus, the fractional order model has the potential value in the study of Rossby solitary waves. In the present paper, according to the quasi-geostrophic potential vorticity equation with the complete Coriolis force, we get a new integer order mZK equation. Using the semi-inverse method and the fractional variational principle, the space-time fractional mZK(STFmZK) equation is obtained. To better understand the property of Rossby solitary waves, we study Lie symmetry analysis, nonlinear self-adjointness, similarity reduction by applying the STFmZK equation. In the end, the conservation and Caputo fractional derivative are discussed, respectively.

Authors: Boczkal Grzegorz , Dadun Karolina 
Published: November 2018

Abstract
The presented work describes issue of magnetic mixing and segregation of metals during the formation of micro-joints using the capacitor welding method. The key aspect is the very short weld time, which is below 2 ms. The Pt/Inconel 625 micro-joints have been tested in the work. The 100-μm platinum wire was welded to Inconel 625 with the same thickness. During the welding process, the capacitor discharge characteristics were recorded with the oscilloscope. This allowed for a mathematical description of phenomena occurring during the creation of the micro-joint. Observations of the micro-structures from the scanning electron microscope in BSE mode confirmed the strong micro-segregation of the joint components. In addition, the effect of magnetic mixing of the joint components was observed. Weld geometry results obtained from the calculations showed good compliance with the real joint micro-structure observation data.

Abstract
A new lead(II)-organic architecture [Pb(HL) (dipyrido[3,2-a:2′,3′-c]phenazine (dppz))](H2O)2 (1) was successfully prepared under hydrothermal conditions by using organic-acid linker 5-((4-carboxyphenoxy)methyl) benzene-1,3-dioic acid (H3L) and N-donor chelating ligand dppz. The as-prepared complex was characterized by single-crystal X-ray structural analysis, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), and elemental analyses, which reveals that complex 1 shows a one-dimensional (1D) chain-like structure that is further extended to the 3D supermolecular network through H-bond and π-π interactions. Complex 1 was transformed to the nanoscale regime (ca. 190 nm) by mechanical grinding to yield the nano-1, maintaining its structure and crystallinity. Furthermore, the anticancer activity of the nano-1 toward the human neuroglioma cells (U251, U87, SHG-44, and A172) was evaluated via the MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) assay.

Published: November 2018

Abstract
Based on the results of rate-controlled mercury-injection experiments, the microscopic pore-throat structure characteristics of tight sandstone in Sha-1 Section and tight limestone in Da’anzhai Section of Sichuan Basin were quantitatively characterized. The results show that the pore radius distribution characteristics of tight oil reservoirs are similar. The main distribution is between 100~190 μm, and the average pore radius is 160 μm. While the distribution of the throat radius of tight sandstone and limestone is quite different, the distribution of the throat of sandstone samples is relatively concentrated, and the distribution of the throat of limestone samples is relatively sparse. There is a good positive correlation between the average throat radius and permeability, but the correlation between fractal dimension and permeability is not obvious. This indicates that the permeability is mainly affected by the radius of the throat. The pore-throat ratio in tight oil reservoirs is relatively large, and the resistance to seepage is greater during development. Therefore, during the development of tight oil, measures should be taken to increase the radius of the throat, reduce the ratio of pore radius to pore-throat radius, and improve the seepage capacity of the reservoir, thereby improving the development of tight oil.
The Construction of Advertising Discourse by the Use of the Second-Person Object Te and the Clitic Se
Authors: Serrano María José 
Published: November 2018

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to analyze the variation of the second-person object clitic te [‘you’] and the clitic se [lit. ‘it’] in advertising discourse from a cognitive viewpoint. The main explanatory notion will be cognitive salience; both clitics, te and se, exhibit this to varying degrees. The second-person te is more salient than the clitic se; therefore, the meanings conveyed by each in media discourse will be notably different. Results indicate that the distribution and usage of the clitics te vs. se constitutes a different strategy of persuasion in advertising discourse. In general terms, te is used when a special deictic stance is needed, such as indexing a second-person as a potential consumer of the product or idea, whereas se tends to appear in utterances that describe the general and objective benefits of the product or idea advertised, denoting a desubjectivizing stance. The sociosituational distribution of this variation according to the target consumers will be analyzed.
The Functions of the Spanish ApproximatorsComoandComo Quein Institutional and Non-Institutional Discursive Contexts
Authors: Jimenez Abril , Flores-Ferrán Nydia 
Published: November 2018

AbstractThe Spanish approximatorscomoandcomo que(“sort of,” “as if,” “kind of,” “seems,” “like”) serve multiple pragmatic functions. They can be employed in similar contexts to express vagueness when speakers experience uncertainty or to hedge and avoid being straightforward. Furthermore, these forms can alternate according to context since they represent two ways of saying the same thing. This study investigated the use ofcomoandcomo quein two speech events: narratives of personal experience (non-institutional) and therapeutic interviews (institutional), which were generated by Spanish speakers of several varieties, educational levels, and lengths of residence in the United States. The study was informed by the theoretical frameworks of sociolinguistic and pragmatic variation, and the data were analyzed using quantitative and qualitative approaches. The findings revealed that whilecomowas the preferred form among the speakers of the study they employed como que more often in the therapeutic interviews. Thus, both discourse and the pragmatic functions conditioned the use of these approximators.

Published: November 2018

AbstractA major bottleneck to our understanding of the genetic and molecular foundation of life lies in the ability to assign function to a gene and, subsequently, a protein. Traditional molecular and genetic experiments can provide the most reliable forms of identification, but are generally low-throughput, making such discovery and assignment a daunting task. The bottleneck has led to an increasing role for computational approaches. The Critical Assessment of Functional Annotation (CAFA) effort seeks to measure the performance of computational methods. In CAFA3, we performed selected screens, including an effort focused on long-term memory. We used homology and previous CAFA predictions to identify 29 key Drosophila genes, which we tested via a long-term memory screen. We identify 11 novel genes that are involved in long-term memory formation and show a high level of connectivity with previously identified learning and memory genes. Our study provides first higher-order behavioral assay and organism screen used for CAFA assessments and revealed previously uncharacterized roles of multiple genes as possible regulators of neuronal plasticity at the boundary of information acquisition and memory formation.
