Published: April 2019

<p><em>Malang Raya with all the trimmings is a city with intense activity. As a result, the streets in most areas in Malang became commonly used. The volume density of vehicles per day resulted in a lot of potholes. However, the slow handling of city government and county government resulted in the holes in the road more and more common. Of course this led to frustration for road users. Many victims of accidents caused fall due pit road. Not the least of casualties caused by potholes is pushing a bunch of young for forming Social Community “Peduli Lubang”. The group is moved voluntarily. Social counciosness encouraging to form this community. In its action, they make a circular mark or ledges with pylox white against the hole in every street. The goal is sign that the road users see the white markings they have made. The sign is effective because Driver can seen from distance before the hole, finally the driver can reduce speed. A lot of appreciation given to this community. Remaining so many hole in streets, and the number of "Self founding" that they have to spend for the sake of this social action. Their action also received a response from the mayor. </em><em>This research uses a case study approach and indepth interview methods to community members and resource persons also road users to recognize the existence of this grass-roots communities. Observations made to this community by following all the activities of this group. As a result, the public perception of these two groups divided into two: the pros and cons of their action. Part of the counter on the excuse that their sentences are inappropriate for display in public facilities. In conclusion the public perception of the pro-grassroots movement may be resistance to the government policy terksan slow in dealing with this issue. Evidenced by the more intense they carry out an action, response Malang city and county governments more quickly.

Assembly, annotation, and comparison of Macrophomina phaseolina isolates from strawberry and other hosts
Authors: Burkhardt Alyssa Kay , Childs Kevin L. , Wang Jie , Ramon Marina L. , Martin Frank N. 
Published: April 2019

Abstract
Background

Macrophomina phaseolina is traditionally considered a broad host range fungal pathogen, but one genotype was recently shown to exhibit a host preference/specificity on strawberry. This fungus lacked a high-quality genome assembly and annotation, and little is known about genomic differences between isolates from different hosts.

Results

This study used PacBio sequencing and Hi-C scaffolding to provide nearly complete genome assemblies from M. phaseolina isolates recovered from strawberry and alfalfa with 60 or fewer scaffolds and N50 metrics at 4.3 and 5.0 Mb, respectively. The genomes were annotated with MAKER using multiple RNA-Seq libraries generated in this study, and over 13,000 protein-coding genes were predicted. Unique groups of orthologous genes for each M. phaseolina isolate were identified when compared to several closely related fungal species. Comparative genomics between the isolates reveal large-scale structural rearrangements including chromosomal inversions and translocations. An additional 30 isolates of M. phaseolina from various hosts, including several from strawberry, were sequenced with Illumina and compared to the high-quality strawberry isolate assembly. No conserved structural rearrangements were identified among the isolates from strawberry compared to those from other hosts, but some candidate genes were identified that were largely present in isolates pathogenic on strawberry and absent in isolates not pathogenic on this host.

Conclusions

High-quality reference genomes of M. phaseolina generated in this study have allowed for comparative genomics to be used to investigate the genomic changes that might have led to a host preference toward strawberry and will enable future comparative genomics studies. Having more complete scaffolds allows for structural rearrangements to be more fully assessed and ensures a greater representation of all the genes that are truly present in the genome. Work with the additional isolates in this study suggests that some genes are predominately only present in isolates that are pathogenic on strawberry, but additional work is needed to confirm the role of these genes in pathogenesis. Additional work is also needed to complete the scaffolding of smaller contigs representing smaller chromosomes identified in the strawberry genotype assembly and to determine how gene expression plays a role in pathogenicity.
Carinata Dry Matter Accumulation and Nutrient Uptake Responses to Nitrogen Fertilization
Authors: Seepaul Ramdeo , Marois Jim , Small Ian M. , George Sheeja , Wright David L. 
Published: April 2019

Core Ideas
This is the first report of carinata dry matter accumulation and allocation responses to nitrogen.Carinata growth, resource allocation, seed, and straw nitrogen concentration and uptake are highly responsive to nitrogen application in North Florida.Dry matter accumulation increases with nitrogen rate; however, the allocation of dry matter to roots, leaves, stems, flower/pods and seeds are similar regardless of nitrogen rate.Maximum nitrogen uptake occurred between 50% bolting and 50% flowering while all other elements had maximum uptake later in the season between 50% flowering and pod formation.Total nitrogen uptake exceeded applied N by 11 to 160%, suggesting that carinata is highly efficient at scavenging and utilizing residual soil nitrogen.Adequate nitrogen is required (93 kg N ha−1) for optimizing carinata productivity in sandy loam soils in North Florida.
Brassica carinata is grown as a winter crop in the Southeast United States and it is a non‐edible oilseed feedstock for ‘drop‐in’ aviation and transportation fuels. The objective of this 2‐yr study was to determine the effects of N application on dry matter (DM) production and the accumulation of nutrients in above‐ and belowground biomass. Carinata var. 110994EM was treated with four N rates (0, 45, 90, and 135 kg N ha−1) in 2014 and 2015 at Quincy, Florida. Above‐ and belowground biomass were collected and analyzed for macro‐ and micronutrients. The allocation of DM among root, leaves, stems, flowers/pods, and seed did not differ with N rate. Carinata was highly responsive to N with maximum yield (2798 kg ha−1) produced at 102.3 kg N ha−1, while the economic optimum N rate occurred at 93 kg N ha−1. Maximum N uptake occurred between 50% bolting and 50% flowering while all other elements had maximum uptake between 50% flowering and pod formation. Nitrogen concentration in seed and straw increased with N rate. These results were attributed to the strong relationship between uptake and dry matter production. Total N uptake exceeded applied N by 11 to 160%, suggesting that carinata is highly efficient at scavenging and utilizing residual soil N. The identification of growth stages associated with maximum nutrient uptake may aid in aligning time of N application to critical growth stages corresponding to maximum N uptake.
Ion Concentration Changes in Plants of Varying Tolerance under Saline Environment
Authors: Li Xiaobin 
Published: April 2019

Core Ideas
Two widely cultivated plant species with different salinity tolerance were grown on coastal saline soils.Five levels of water salinity were set for reclamation of saline land using drip irrigation.Ion homeostasis in two plants organs differed with plant salinity tolerance.The threshold of water salinity for two plants was determined.
Two widely cultivated plant species (Buddleja alternifolia Maxim. and Weigela florida ‘Red Prince’) with different salinity tolerances were grown in coastal saline soils around Bohai Gulf, China, using drip irrigation at five levels of salinity: 0.8, 3.1, 4.7, 6.3, and 7.8 dS/m. The soil salinity (electrical conductivity of soil saturated extract, ECe), soil pH, plant survival rate, and ion concentration changes in plants were investigated. The results showed that a low soil salinity environment with ECe < 4 dS/m for all saline water treatments was quickly created and maintained especially in the root zone, which confirmed the effectiveness of drip irrigation in salt leaching. Liquid acid added with drip irrigation is proposed in the early reclamation period to avoid alkalization. Ion homeostasis differed with plant salinity tolerance, increasing of K+, Ca2+/Na+, and K+/Na+ in plant tissues and decline of Na+ in the leaf for B. alternifolia were correlated with higher survival rates compared with that of W. florida (Red Prince). Fertilization with K+ and Ca2+ was proposed to reduce the deleterious effects of salinity, especially for salt‐sensitive plants. Irrigation water of salinity up to 7.8 and 3.1 dS/m could be applied in the field to B. alternifolia and cultivar Red Prince, respectively, while maintaining a >75% survival rate.

Existem diferentes tecnologias de elaboração de suco de uva, sendo a mais comum por aquecimento, que pode ser realizado por trocadores de calor para grandes volumes, ou por vapor para volumes menores. O objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar a influência do uso de diferentes técnicas de extração empregando calor na composição físico-química e aceitação sensorial de sucos de uvas brancas. O trabalho foi realizado na Epagri - Estação experimental de Videira, com uvas da variedade Niágara Branca (Vitis labrusca), safra 2018. Os tratamentos consistiram em: 1) Extração em panela extratora por arraste de vapor; 2) Extração por sistema adaptado simulando trocador de calor e adição de enzimas pectolíticas. Os sucos foram avaliados quanto à composição físico-química e sensorial. Os sucos elaborados por trocador de calor apresentaram valores mais elevados para acidez titulável, sólidos solúveis, açúcares redutores totais, bem como maior intensidade de cor. Os sucos extraídos por arraste de vapor destacaram-se pela maior relação açúcar/acidez. Sensorialmente não ocorreram diferenças significativas, porém, os sucos elaborados por trocador de calor receberam maiores notas para os parâmetros avaliados, exceto equilíbrio açúcar/acidez e doçura. Sucos elaborados com uso de enzimas e trocador de calor apresentaram maior doçura e acidez, recebendo maiores notas para cor, aroma agradável, acidez, corpo, adstringência e impressão global. Sucos obtidos pela extração a vapor apresentaram menor acidez culminando em uma maior relação açúcar/acidez.

Their founders were important people, both the voivode of Cracow Teodor Gryfita and the Cracow duchess Kinga of the Arpad family (later a saint) inscribed themselves for the work of monastery foundations in Podhale in the colonization and economic process but above all the religious and cultural life in the then Piast state.
Riboswitches in Archaea
Authors: Gupta Angela , Swati D. 
Published: April 2019

Background:
Riboswitches are cis-acting, non-coding RNA elements found in the
5’UTR of bacterial mRNA and 3’ UTR of eukaryotic mRNA, that fold in a complex manner to act
as receptors for specific metabolites hence altering their conformation in response to the change in
concentrations of a ligand or metabolite. Riboswitches function as gene regulators in numerous
bacteria, archaea, fungi, algae and plants.

Aim and Objective:
This study identifies different classes of riboswitches in the Archaeal domain
of life. Previous studies have suggested that riboswitches carry a conserved aptameric domain in
different domains of life. Since Archaea are considered to be the most idiosyncratic organisms it
was interesting to look for the conservation pattern of riboswitches in these obviously strange
microorganisms.

Materials and Methods:
Completely sequenced Archaeal Genomes present in the NCBI repository
were used for studying riboswitches and other ncRNAs. The sequence files in FASTA format were
downloaded from NCBI Genome database and information related to these genomes was retrieved
from GenBank. Three bioinformatics approaches were used namely, ab initio, consensus structure
prediction and statistical model-based prediction for identifying riboswitches.

Results:
Archaeal genomes have a sporadic distribution of putative riboswitches like the TPP,
FMN, Guanidine, Lysine and c-di-AMP riboswitches, which are known to occur in bacteria. Also,
a class of riboswitch sensing c-di-GMP, a second messenger, has been identified in a few Archaeal
organisms.

Conclusion:
This study clearly reveals that bioinformatics methods are likely to play a major role
in identifying conserved riboswitches and in establishing how widespread these classes are in all
domains of life, even though the final confirmation may come from wet lab methods.
Use of Aqueous Two-Phase and Three-Phase Partitioning Systems for Purification of Lipase Obtained in Solid-State Fermentation by Rhizopus arrhizus
Authors: Dobreva Valentina , Zhekova Boriana , Dobrev Georgi 
Published: April 2019

Background:
Purification of enzymes by conventional methods such as precipitation and chromatographic techniques is a costly and time-consuming procedure and may lead to low yields of enzyme activity. Alternative liquid-liquid extraction methods such as Aqueous Two-Phase Systems (ATPS) and Three Phase Partitioning (TPP) are characterized by the high enzyme yields and purification degree.

Objective:
The objective of this study was the application of partitioning systems ATPS and TPP for purification of lipase produced in solid-state fermentation by Rhizopus arrhizus.

Methods:
ATPS and TPP were used for purification of lipase, obtained by solid state cultivation of Rhizopus arrhizus.

Results:
Lipase was isolated with PEG4000/potassium sodium tartrate ATPS and the effect of the system composition, including PEG 4000 and potassium sodium tartrate concentrations on lipase partitioning was studied. When using 30% PEG4000/21% potassium sodium tartrate, lipase was distributed in the top phase, and the highest recovery yield of 217% and purification fold of 6.1 were achieved. It was found that at PEG4000 concentration of or higher than 15%, the enzyme was present in the top polymer-rich phase with a partitioning yield of over 90%. Upon application of TPP for lipase isolation, the effect of t-butanol concentration, ammonium sulfate concentration and pH on enzyme partitioning was investigated. The highest lipase recovery yield of 71% and 19.1-fold purification were achieved in the interfacial phase in the presence of 30% ammonium sulfate saturation with 1.0:0.5 crude extract/t-butanol ratio at pH 7 in a single step. The sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and zymographic analysis showed significant purification of lipase by TPP and the presence of two multiple forms of the enzyme.

Conclusion:
ATPS (PEG4000/ Potassium sodium tartrate) and TPP (1.0:0.5 crude extract/t-butanol ratio, 30% ammonium sulfate saturation, pH 7) proved to be rapid methods for the isolation and purification of lipase and they can be used in downstream processing for industrial preparation of the enzyme.

Authors: Mathur Neha , Manna Biplab , Sharma Arun Kumar 
Published: April 2019

Background:Phenothiazines and Triphenodithiazines are included in the class of nitrogen and sulphur donating ligands. They have a wide spectrum of biological activities and form important class of heterocyclic compounds. Both drugs are being used as, antitumors, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, anaesthetics, anticancer agents, antimalarials, antimicrobials, anti-cholinergics, growth inhibitors, and many other pharmacological agents.Objective:Present work has been initiated with a view to obtain a profile regarding structural insight of complexes of Cobalt (II), Ni (II) and Zinc (II) soaps derived from substituted phenothiazines 15 and triphenodithiazines using latest technique. It also gives an account of micelle formation in the mixed non aqueous solvents.Methods:The viscosity, specific viscosity, and fluidity of complexes of Co, Ni, and Zn Oleate with substituted phenothiazine and triphenodithiazine in methanol + benzene solvents was determined at a constant temperature of 303.15 K to study the micellar features and critical micelle concentration (CMC). In the present work benzene+ methanol have selected as co solvents due to these interact with complex molecules and thus affected aggregation of complex molecules.Results:The results were used to determine the CMC, soap complex-solvent interactions and the effect of chain length of the surfactant molecule on various parameters. The conclusions concerning solute-solute and solute-solvent interaction were discussed regarding the well-known Moulik’s and Jones-Dole equations.Conclusion:From above results it may be concluded that the micelle formation take place earlier in the case of triphenodithiazine complexes due to larger molecular structure, so a smaller number of molecules are needed to form micelle. Micellization also confirms the existence of complex aggregation in the non-aqueous mixed solvents. To conclude, it can be unveiled on the basis of the result acquired that above study of complexes conforms the presence of complex aggregation in the non - aqueous mixed solvents.

Authors: Kozikowski Andrzej , Shotwell Jillian , Wool Eve , Slaboda Jill C , Abrashkin Karen A , Rhodes Karin , Smith Kristofer L , Pekmezaris Renee , Norman Gregory J 
Published: April 2019

Background
Novel and sustainable approaches to optimizing home-based primary care (HBPC) programs are needed to meet the medical needs of a growing number of homebound older adults in the United States. Telehealth may be a viable option for scaling HBPC programs.

Objective
The purpose of this qualitative study was to gain insight into the perspectives of HBPC staff regarding adopting telehealth technology to increase the reach of HBPC to more homebound patients.

Methods
We collected qualitative data from HBPC staff (ie, physicians, registered nurses, nurse practitioners, care managers, social workers, and medical coordinators) at a practice in the New York metropolitan area through 16 semistructured interviews and three focus groups. Data were analyzed thematically using the template analysis approach with Self-Determination Theory concepts (ie, relatedness, competence, and autonomy) as an analytical lens.

Results
Four broad themes—pros and cons of scaling, technology impact on staff autonomy, technology impact on competence in providing care, and technology impact on the patient-caregiver-provider relationship—and multiple second-level themes emerged from the analysis. Staff acknowledged the need to scale the program without diminishing effective patient-centered care. Participants perceived alerts generated from patients and caregivers using telehealth as potentially increasing burden and necessitating a rapid response from an already busy staff while increasing ambiguity. However, they also noted that telehealth could increase efficiency and enable more informed care provision. Telehealth could enhance the patient-provider relationship by enabling caregivers to be an integral part of the patient’s care team. Staff members raised the concern that patients or caregivers might unnecessarily overutilize the technology, and that some home visits are more appropriate in person rather than via telehealth.

Conclusions
These findings suggest the importance of considering the perspectives of medical professionals regarding telehealth adoption. A proactive approach exploring the benefits and concerns professionals perceive in the adoption of health technology within the HBPC program will hopefully facilitate the optimal integration of telehealth innovations.
