Breaking seed dormancy of Tulipa scardica Bornm. and Tulipa kosovarica Kit Tan, Shuka & Krasniqi by pre-chilling, plant growth regulators and some chemical treatments
Authors: GASHI Bekim , OSMANI Mirsade , ALIU Sali 
Published: July 2019

Tulipa scardica and T. kosovarica are rare, endemic and endangered plants in Kosovo. This research was carried out to study the dormancy breaking treatment in Tulipa scardica and T. kosovarica seeds by pre-chilling and various concentration of potassium nitrate (KNO3), gibberellic acid (GA3), kinetin, thiourea and sulfuric acid (H2SO4). The experiment was conducted with untreated seeds (without stratification) and with stratified seeds (8 weeks) and treated with different concentration of some chemicals and plant growth regulators. Results showed that the final germination percentage (FGP) of seeds without stratification at both Tulipa plant species was zero, while germination was enhanced by pre-chilling (stratification) especially after treatment of these seeds by above mentioned treatments. Both Tulipa species showed an increase in mean germination time (MGT), an indication of slower germination, as different chemicals or plant growth regulators increased. Depending on treatments, germination was ranging from 80 % to 90 %, the maximum germination was detected in seeds treated with KNO3, GA3, and their combination, while the minimum germination in seeds without treatments and treated with thiourea. The conservation of these plants in botanic gardens by cultivation or propagation for commercial use as ornamental plants could give an effective contribution to the conservation of these plants.Abbreviations: KNO3 – potassium nitrate; GA3 - gibberellic acid; H2SO4 – sulfuric acid; FGP – final germination percentage; MGT – mean germination time

Authors: RAMAZANI Seyyed Hamid Reza , IZANLOO Ali 
Published: July 2019

The effects of drought stress on morphological and yield traits of six different genotypes of triticale along with wheat and barley were studied. The experiment was conducted in agricultural college of Sarayan, University of Birjand in 2016-2017 growing season. Experiment was a split-plot experiment based on randomized complete block design with drought stress in main plots and eight mentioned genotypes in subplots in three replications. Results of analysis of variance and means comparison analysis showed significant and negative effect of drought stress on grain yield and biological yield of all investigated genotypes. There was significant difference among investigated genotypes of triticale, wheat, and barley for grain yield under drought stress at 1 % probability level. Pazh genotype of triticale was found as the most drought tolerance genotype, among all investigated genotypes, based on almost all drought tolerance indexes. The highest significant correlation with grain yield was related to biological yield, harvest index, spike/shoot ratio, height and straw yield. GGE biplot analysis of genotypes based on their Yp and Ys showed that Pazh, Jualino, and Sanabad genotypes of triticale had more trends to Ys principal component than ET-89-11 line, wheat, and barley genotypes, therefore show more tolerance to drought stress.
Una novela hospitalaria: La cresta de Ilión, de Cristina Rivera-Garza
Authors: Ríos Baeza Felipe A. 
Published: July 2019

A partir del concepto de hospitalidad propuesto por el filósofo francés Jacques Derrida, este ensayo pretende definir los rasgos más significativos de La cresta de Ilión (Tusquets, 2002), de la escritora mexicana Cristina Rivera Garza; novela recientemente reeditada (Random House, 2018) y que resulta pieza fundamental de su narrativa, ya que desde allí se irradiarán muchos asuntos singulares para sus obras posteriores. Si en Nadie me verá llorar (1999), primera novela de Rivera Garza, buena parte de las acciones acontecían en un recinto «hospitalario», La cresta de Ilión parece presentar cierta continuidad, al menos en lo que se refiere a los espacios de desenvolvimiento de la trama y a los personajes masculinos abrumados, pero el efecto performativo sobre la prosa misma de Rivera Garza se verá completamente transformado. Por lo tanto, en diálogo y en polémica con esa crítica literaria anterior que ha trabajado este libro, se estudiará de qué manera un espacio literario recibe, de forma problemática, trazas de otros discursos, pensando este procedimiento de un modo alternativo al «intertexto», concepto que ya parece insuficiente para determinar el articulado de novelas como ésta.
Viaje trasandino y memorias de migración: imaginarios geográficos del Cono Sur en El sistema del tacto de Alejandra Costamagna
Authors: Johansson Márquez María Teresa 
Published: July 2019

Este artículo interpreta los vínculos entre espacio y memoria en la novela El sistema del tacto(2018) de Alejandra Costamagna a partir de la configuración de una geografía afectiva del Cono Sur, un imaginario de provincia argentina y un archivo familiar de la migración. La emergencia de un imaginario territorial que incluye el cruce transadino, el recorrido por la pampa y la ciudad provinciana de Campana proyecta distintas formas de vida social transformadas en el tiempo. Estos imaginarios se elaboran tanto desde una figura de infancia que despliega una percepción particular del paisaje natural como desde una subjetividad que en el presente narrativa retorna para constatar la caducidad de las formas de vivir y habitar del siglo XX. La novela integra aspectos espaciales, materiales y lingüísticos en la conformación de distintas experiencias, imágenes y percepciones del entorno.

Abstract
Bloodgood, AM, Dawes, JJ, Orr, RM, Stierli, M, Cesario, KA, Moreno, MR, Dulla, JM, and Lockie, RG. Effects of sex and age on physical testing performance for law enforcement agency candidates: implications for academy training. J Strength Cond Res 35(9): 2629–2635, 2021—Law enforcement candidates are often required to complete fitness tests to assess their preparedness for training. This study investigated the influence of sex and age on candidate performance before academy training. Retrospective analysis of 516 candidates was performed. Data were stratified into men (n = 432) and women (n = 84), and the pooled (men and women combined) data were stratified into age groups (20–24; 24–29; 30–34; 35–39; and 40+ years). The tests included the following: maximal push-ups and sit-ups in 60 seconds; a 75-yard pursuit run (75PR); arm ergometer revolutions completed in 60 seconds; and a 2.4-km run. To compare the sex and age groups, a 2 × 5 analysis of variance (with Bonferroni post hoc for multiple between-age group comparisons) was used. Men performed significantly (p < 0.001) more push-ups, sit-ups, and arm ergometer revolutions and were faster in the 75PR and 2.4-km run. The 20–24, 25–29, and 35–39 year groups were faster in the 75PR compared with the 40+ year group; the 20–24 and 25–29 year groups were faster than the 35–39 year group; and the 20–24 year group was faster than the 30–34 year group (p ≤ 0.023). The 20–24 year group was faster than the 40+ year group in the 2.4-km run (p = 0.005). Women and older candidates may have a lower physical capacity than men and younger candidates, respectively, in certain physical assessments. Women and older candidates, in particular, may benefit from dedicated training before academy to better prepare for the demands of this period.

Published: July 2019

A gestão de resíduos sólidos para um mundo mais sustentável está presente sempre nas conferencias mundiais sobre o meio ambiente, sendo que, é uma estratégia para conciliar um desenvolvimento com proteção dos ecossistemas, considerando que a geração e disposição final dos resíduos sólidos urbanos é hoje um dos maiores problemas da sociedade moderna. Um dos reflexos dessa negligência é percebido facilmente entre a população, como no caso da carência do saneamento básico, o que prejudica além do próprio meio ambiente, a saúde humana com a contaminação do solo, dos corpos d’água, os alimentos e a qualidade do ar, implicando em inúmeros casos de doenças. Esses resíduos podem ser fontes financeiras, sendo que, podem ser reutilizados para outros fins, ao mesmo tempo, podem ser considerados como perigo para a sustentabilidade do planeta. Dessa forma, este artigo tem por objetivo apresentar cenários de eventos que tem provocado alterações ambientais na dinâmica de uso da terra no município de Cabaret-Haiti, sobretudo através da percepção da população sobre a gestão de resíduos sólidos e a deposição inadequada do lixo, visando preservar e recuperar a qualidade ambiental propicia à vida.
Deterritorialización y ciudadanización de los Guaymí.
Authors: Solano-Acuña Ana Sofía 
Published: July 2019

Esta es una experiencia donde se unen la geografía, la antropología y la historia con el objetivo de revelar la identidad insurgente y anticolonial del occidente de Panamá, particularmente del pueblo guaymí. Tras la historia nacional es necesario descubrir la historia regional y la historia étnica en particular, ambas absorbidas por discursos homogeneizantes y totalizadores donde la polifonía de las voces disidentes ha sido borrada. Desde finales del siglo XIX e inicios del XX la idea de "espacio vacío" convivió y compitió con la de "espacio salvaje", lo cual es posible rastrear en prensa, documentación oficial y escritos de intelectuales. En esta entrega quiero hacer un recorrido por las estrategias (políticas, económicas e ideológicas) del Estado y las élites para desgarrar el etnoterritorio y administrar a la población indígena y sus bienes en el marco de un Estado Nacional en consolidación y de una identidad nacional excluyente en proceso de construcción.
Utilização de agrotóxicos no assentamento três pontes, Município de Perolândia (go): fatores de risco á saúde
Authors: Miranda Celeni , De Oliveira Raquel Maria 
Published: July 2019

Neste estudo foram entrevistados de um total de quarenta e três, doze lotes de assentados no Assentamento Três Pontes, que corresponde a 27,9 %, buscou também analisar a utilização de agrotóxicos na área de estudo pertencente ao município de Perolândia (GO), com vistas a revelar os impactos desses produtos para a saúde pública. A faixa etária dos sujeitos variam de 35 a 70 anos, podendo afirmar que trata-se de uma população adulta. O grau de escolaridade 72,7% possuem o Ensino Fundamental incompleto. Realidade que interfere quando se pensa que os produtos químicos requerem um grau de entendimento para manuseá-los. Para Florêncio et. Al. (2001), “A maioria dos trabalhadores afirma que não são capazes de entender as instruções e recomendações contidas nos rótulos dos produtos” (Florêncio, et. al.2001 p..51). Investigou-se o uso dos Equipamentos de Proteção Individual-EPIs; o conhecimento sobre o receituário agronômico, item obrigatório na aquisição desses produtos, e o descarte correto das embalagens vazias. Os resultados obtidos apontaram que dos doze lotes visitados 90,9% reconhecem a importância dos EPis, mas não utilizam, todos desconhecem o receituário agronômico e 30% terceirizam o combate com agrotóxicos de suas propriedades. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qual quantitativa, optando-se pelo estudo de campo. Utilizou-se como instrumentos de coleta de dados: as observações, a aplicação de questionários e entrevistas semiestruturadas. Os sujeitos foram as famílias assentadas no Assentamento Três Pontes, apresentando a realidade dessa comunidade, sobre o seu modo de vida e principalmente a influência dos agrotóxicos em suas atividades produtivas, bem como sua conscientização e segurança na utilização dos mesmos. Verificou-se que no assentamento pesquisado as famílias utilizam agrotóxicos indiscriminadamente em suas lavouras.

Published: July 2019

Essential oil is a complex blend of a variety of volatile molecules such as terpenoids, phenol-derived aromatic components. Cinnamon oil (extracted from Cinnamon burmannii) with strong antibacterial properties which show low bioavailability due to its lipophilicity. The use of nanoemulsion-based formulations is one of several approaches found to be efficient in improving the bioavailability of lipophilic entities such as cinnamon oil. This study explores the effects of various emulsifying conditions on the physicochemical properties and stability evaluation of cinnamon oil nanoemulsion in order to optimize its production method. Cinnamon oil nanoemulsion prepared in various emulsifying conditions was evaluated for its effects on the physicochemical characteristics and stability for a period of 3 months. The optimal formulation obtained required 5 minutes and 12000 rpm pre-homogenizing speed, high pressure (500 bars) and 3 cycles with the composition of 20% surfactant, 15% cinnamon oil and 85% water. Cinnamon oil loaded in the optimal formulation were stable after the manufacturing process and storage at 4°C±2 °C, 28°C±2 °C and 40°C±2 °C for 3 months. The finding of this study will lead to the possibility of this formulation to be used as one of the methods to improve cinnamon oil bioavailability.

Considering the recent world situation of the electricity for mankind and also energy requirements have been increasing exponentially worldwide. People is facing on their energy challenge and most countries in the world are on their way searching for new renewable energy resources technologies which consider for environment protection. An estimated 1.3 billon people - 17.3% of the global population - did not have access to electricity services for their daily lives, especially at night. Various studies on alternative renewable energy generation are becoming more and more priority, because humanity's increasing concern for electricity needs and climate change is happening. One potential way to continue to be explored as a solution to solve this problem is the over-reliance on electricity based on fossil fuels. Then the microbial fuel cell (MFC) is an opportunity challenge that is very interesting for further development. There are still many open opportunities to find out the effect of increasing volume and environmental factors on MFC operations. The results showed that the maximum value for mixed samples was 12720 ± 114.31 mV / m2, 9830 ± 81.79 mV / m2 and 1650 ± 65.32 mV / m2 for mixed samples of persimmon and soil waste, leaf molds and rice bran respectively -one; the electromotive force of the sample mixture of persimmon and soil waste is around 22 ± 0.01 V / m2. In addition, the power density correlates with an increase in the MFC scale which reaches 2109.9 mW / m2, 2319.88 mW / m2, 4384.06 mW / m2 and 10317.19 mW / m2 for 100 cm2, 150 cm2, 300 respectively. cm2 and 500 cm2 respectively. And the voltage generator works well even on a number of environmental factors (especially pH and humidity). In summary, this study shows and agrees that voltage generation can be maintained to increase during reactor increases and MFC by using organic waste (especially using persimmon fruit waste) can be operated under any environmental conditions.
