Masters swimming competitions – A study on applying a registration fee
Authors: Răsădean Marcel 
Published: May 2015

Abstract
At the conceptual level, masters swimming is systematically practiced in an organized environment, by adults as amateurs. According to the level of personal motivation, practicing swimming by adults can be conducted as: a recreational activity (leisure swimming); an activity for maintaining physical capacity (fitness); a therapeutic activity; a socializing activity; an initiation activity for adults; a competitive activity. The competitive activity values the sportive dimension of masters swimming. At a worldwide level, there are many masters swimming competitions, and the vast majority of them are organized by the masters swimming clubs. Taking into account that the financing of masters swimming events is mainly based on income from the participation fees, the choice of the participation fee is an important factor in the financial success of such an event. The purpose of this study is to analyse the financial impact determined by applying the two most common types of participation fees both on the organizing club and on the participants themselves. Furthermore, we aim to find a way of taxing participation so that one may take part in as many competitions as possible, but also to ensure the budgetary balance of the event.
Comparative study on the number of pupils registered as sportsmen in the middle schools from Iasi and at a national level
Authors: Chirazi Marin 
Published: May 2015

Abstract
Practicing sports at the age of puberty is important for the development of a harmonious body, as well as for the acquisition of the habit of practicing a sport activity by the teenagers to be during their spare time. This study relies on two data categories: the ones presented by the Romanian Federation of School and University Sports and the results of a vaster project developed by the Faculty of Physical Education and Sport from Iasi in partnership with the School Inspectorate of Iasi County. The research identified the percentage of middle school pupils who have the status of registered sportsmen by carrying out a sociological survey at all the middle schools (36) from the Iasi city. The study monitored a number of 8911 pupils and the statistical processing of the data showed that 4.3% of them are registered at various school sports clubs or private clubs. These values have been compared with the data provided by the Romanian Federation of School and University Sports and we have reached the conclusion that the number of pupils who practice sports is highly heterogeneous.
The effect of cold shock on the immune response of the greater wax moth Galleria mellonella after infection with entomopathogenic bacteria Bacillus thuringiensis / Wpływ szoku zimna na odpowiedź immunologiczną barciaka większego Galleria mellonella po zakażeniu bakterią entomopatogenną Bacillus thuringiensis

Published: May 2015

AbstractInsect immune system consists of only innate mechanisms relied on cellular and humoral branches. Many defence proteins and peptides exist or appear in response to infection in insect’s hemolymph. The interaction between the infected host and the entomopathogen occurs in the conditions of external environment. In this work the greater wax moth larvae of Galleria mellonella were subjected to a temperature of 120C for a short period of time, directly before infection with entomopathogenic bacteria Bacillus thuringiensis. It appeared that the induction of the immune response was higher in cold-shocked animals than in larvae permanently reared at the optimal temperature of 28 0C. This enhanced immune response was manifested as higher antibacterial and lysozyme-type activity detected in full hemolymph, and as a higher level of peptides of molecular weight below 10 kDa having antibacterial activity. Moreover, other changes in the contents of proteins in the hemolymph were observed. These changes concerned inter alia apolipophorin III, the multifunctional protein of immune significance. Its level was higher in the hemolymph of animals pre-exposed to cold shock than in nonshocked, infected ones. Altogether our results indicate that the interdependence mechanisms occur between cold shock and the immune response.
Investigation of some morphological traits in studied lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) genotypes grown with foliar application of nanosized ferric oxide / Badania nad niektórymi cechami morfologicznymi wybranych genotypów soczewicy (Lens culinaris Medik.) hodowanych w obecności nanocząstek tlenku żelaza

Published: May 2015

AbstractInterest in growing lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) is increasing due to its potential returns relative to other legume crops in semi-arid areas. An experiment was conducted to examine the important traits on lentil under application of nano-fertilizer by using eight genotypes with application of the biplot technique in visualizing research data. Nano-iron oxide (2 g L-1) was utilized as foliar spray during vegetative and reproductive stages. The study revealed that genotype by trait (GT) biplot can graphically display the interrelationships among traits and facilitate visual comparison of genotypes. The first two principal components (PC1 and PC2) accounted for 76% of the total variation. The polygon view of GT biplot suggested four sections for the lentil genotypes as well as traits. The vertex genotypes G1 had plant height, number of branches per plant, number of pods per plant, 100-grains weight and grain yield traits. The most prominent relation were: a strong positive association among biological yield, number of branches per plant, number of pods per plant, grains yield and plant height as indicated by the small obtuse angles between their vectors. The traits’ relationship in the semi-arid was highly variable, and grain yield improvement can be achieved by selecting for number of pods per plant, 100-grains weight. We suggest that the GT biplot be used jointly to better understand and more fully explore interaction pattern data.

Innovation And Economic Growth: The Case Of Slovakia
Authors: Braha Kushtrim , Qineti Artan , Serenčéš Roman 
Published: May 2015

Abstract
The role of innovation in the economic growth is becoming a crucial aspect of the future economic development. Building of the innovative-driven economy requires establishment of supportive macroeconomic environment. It involves interplay among three main factors of innovation: education system, entrepreneurship and governmental institutions. Establishment of the integrated national innovation system is a key priority that assures sustainable economic growth. Slovakia is mobilizing its resources in order to shift its economic growth from efficiency-driven to innovation-driven economic growth. The inflow of the foreign investments and attractive entrepreneurial environment are identified as the main resources of economic growth during the observed period. Additional input in accelerating economic growth brought the accession of the country into the EU. On the other hand, R & D activities remain weakly supported by the public and private funding. As the result, productivity of the Slovak innovators remains low as well. Over the last decade, only 70 patents annually were granted to the Slovak innovators. Despite the significant improvement of the innovative environment, there is a low share of enterprises applying innovation in their business activities.

Published: May 2015

Abstract
Recently, renewable energy sources (RES) have become very popular all over the EU. Subsidy policies have provided huge amount of money flowing into the sector which were necessary for its development. In Slovakia, favourable legislation was one of triggers for building biogas plants using anaerobic fermentation for biogas and further electric energy production. This paper examines how subsidy policy has stimulated biogas sector over the years and the consequences arising from the legislation.

Published: May 2015

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:Children with ankyloglossia, an abnormally short, thickened, or tight lingual frenulum, may have restricted tongue mobility and sequelae, such as speech and feeding difficulties and social concerns. We systematically reviewed literature on feeding, speech, and social outcomes of treatments for infants and children with ankyloglossia.METHODS:Medline, PsycINFO, Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature, and Embase were searched. Two reviewers independently assessed studies against predetermined inclusion/exclusion criteria. Two investigators independently extracted data on study populations, interventions, and outcomes and assessed study quality.RESULTS:Two randomized controlled trials, 2 cohort studies, and 11 case series assessed the effects of frenotomy on feeding, speech, and social outcomes. Bottle feeding and social concerns, such as ability to use the tongue to eat ice cream and clean the mouth, improved more in treatment groups in comparative studies. Supplementary bottle feedings decreased over time in case series. Two cohort studies reported improvement in articulation and intelligibility with treatment. Other benefits were unclear. One randomized controlled trial reported improved articulation after Z-frenuloplasty compared with horizontal-to-vertical frenuloplasty. Numerous noncomparative studies reported speech benefits posttreatment; however, studies primarily discussed modalities, with outcomes including safety or feasibility, rather than speech. We included English-language studies, and few studies addressed longer-term speech, social, or feeding outcomes; nonsurgical approaches, such as complementary and alternative medicine; and outcomes beyond infancy, when speech or social concerns may arise.CONCLUSIONS:Data are currently insufficient for assessing the effects of frenotomy on nonbreastfeeding outcomes that may be associated with ankyloglossia.

Published: May 2015

Egy mohaflorisztikai felmérés során, 2014-ben a Campylopus flexuosus új állományai kerültek elő a Nyugat-Mecsek humid, mészkerülő tölgyeseiben és bükköseiben. Az ország flórájára új fajt a Bakonyban elsőként Peter Erzberger és Németh Csaba mutatta ki 2013-ban. Az új, mecseki populációk feltárása során megbecsültük a C. flexuosus telepek kiterjedését, borítását, illetve listáztuk az állományokon belül előforduló moha és edényes növényfajokat. Munkánk során revideáltuk az MTM Növénytár (BP) Mohagyűjteményének D. flagellare anyagát. Ennek kapcsán bemutatjuk és ábrázoljuk a fajhoz makroszkopikusan igen hasonló Dicranum flagellare differenciális bélyegeit. Adataink alapján feltételezhető, hogy a C. flexuosus a mecseki humid, mészkerülő erdők egy új, terjedőben lévő mohafaja.

Ceratocephala testiculata (Crantz) Roth és további adatok a Bükkalja flórájához
Authors: Schmotzer András 
Published: May 2015

A cikkben a Bükkalja területéről 367 taxonról (365 fajról és két hibridről) közlök elterjedési adatot az 1997–2014 időszakból, mely dűlőszinten (lokalitás) összesen 5 470 botanikai adatnak felel meg. A felmérés keretében herbáriumi adatgyűjtést is folytattam (összesen 344 herbáriumi lap). A fajok értékékelésekor Vojtkó András flóraművéből indultam ki, de az azóta megjelent publikációk adatait is felhasználtam. 45 olyan fajt regisztráltam, mely a flóraműben nem szerepel, igaz ezek közül 3 fajnak ismertek voltak korábbi adatai (Acer negundo, Elaeagnus angustifolia, Xanthium strumarium). Az új fajok közül természetes előfordulású, honosnak tekinthető 6 faj (Carex flacca, Ceratocephala testiculata, Glycerrhiza echinata, Gypsophila paniculata, Kochia laniflora, Marrubium vulgare), míg 5 faj a gyomflóra részét képezi (Anthemis ruthenica, Chenopodium ficifolium, Eragrostis pilosa, Senecio vernalis, Xanthium strumarium). Az új fajok jelentős része adventív előfordulású, melyekhez soroltam azon fajokat is, melyek honosak a hazai flórában, de a bükkaljai előfordulásaik egyértelműen szünantróp élőhelyekhez köthetőek (összesen 5 faj: Crypsis alopecuroides, Limonium gmelini subsp. hungaricum, Salsola kali, Scirpoides holoschoenus, Trifolium angulatum). A változó, leromló flóra képviselői az újonnan kimutatott inváziós fajok (összesen 11 faj), melyek megtelepedése és tömeges térhódítása az elmúlt évtizedekben gyorsult fel (lásd Bidens frondosa, Impatiens glandulifera, Phytolacca esculenta, Xanthium italicum). A flóra kritikai feldolgozásakor az újonnan kimutatott fajok mellett 43 olyan fajt is regisztráltam, melynek nem volt ismert recens publikált adata a Bükkből. Az újonnan kimutatott fajokkal ellentétben itt e fajok jelentős része honosnak tekinthető (összesen 38 faj), melyek változatos élőhelypreferenciával jellemezhető csoportokra oszthatók (száraz gyepi, mocsári, erdei és gyom). Az enumerációban 65 fajnál jeleztem, hogy a felmért lokalitások alapján jelentős adatbővülés valósult meg, melynek révén az adott faj elterjedési mintázata pontosítható volt. 24 – változatos élőhelypreferenciával rendelkező – faj esetében az adatbővülés ütemét is részletesen elemeztem a felmért lokalitások (dűlő) és az általuk lefedett KEF negyed-kvadátok alapján. Megállapítást nyert, hogy a rendelkezésre álló adatsorok a flóra évtizedes léptékű változásának nyomonkövetésére nem alkalmasak, viszont a magasabb régiók és az érintkező síksági területek jobb feldolgozottsága révén flóragrádiensek megrajzolásához jól felhasználhatók.
Anciennes remontées mécaniques dans les montagnes françaises : pour une géographie des friches touristiques (Old ski lifts and telphers in French mountains : for a geography of touristic waste lands)
Authors: Gauchon Christophe 
Published: May 2015

Les problèmes liés à l'aménagement touristique de la montagne ne mobilisent guère les esprits que lors de la mise en place de nouvelles installations soumises à la procédure U.T.N. (Unités Touristiques Nouvelles). Jusqu'à présent, il semble que l'on se soit peu intéressé au sort des anciennes remontées mécaniques abandonnées, véritables friches touristiques.
Douze sites sont ici étudiés, des Pyrénées occidentales aux Alpes françaises du Nord : anciens téléphériques desservant de prestigieux panoramas ou de modestes stations de ski, leur abandon s'explique à la fois par l'évolution des représentations et des pratiques et par le vieillissement des installations. Si à Val Pelouse (Savoie) l'arrêt des remontées mécaniques a été suivi d'une réhabilitation exemplaire des lieux, l'existence de ces friches occasionne ailleurs de multiples nuisances, surtout paysagères, et se perpétue en l'absence actuelle de toute réglementation.
Evolution of zygomycetous spindle pole bodies: Evidence from Coemansia reversa mitosis
Authors: McLaughlin David J. , Healy Rosanne A. , Celio Gail J. , Roberson Robert W. , Kumar T. K. Arun 
Published: May 2015

• Premise of the study: The earliest eukaryotes were likely flagellates with a centriole that nucleates the centrosome, the microtubule‐organizing center (MTOC) for nuclear division. The MTOC in higher fungi, which lack flagella, is the spindle pole body (SPB). Can we detect stages in centrosome evolution leading to the diversity of SPB forms observed in terrestrial fungi? Zygomycetous fungi, which consist of saprobes, symbionts, and parasites of animals and plants, are critical in answering the question, but nuclear division has been studied in only two of six clades.• Methods: Ultrastructure of mitosis was studied in Coemansia reversa (Kickxellomycotina) germlings using cryofixation or chemical fixation. Character evolution was assessed by parsimony analysis, using a phylogenetic tree assembled from multigene analyses.• Key results: At interphase the SPB consisted of two components: a cytoplasmic, electron‐dense sphere containing a cylindrical structure with microtubules oriented nearly perpendicular to the nucleus and an intranuclear component appressed to the nuclear envelope. Markham's rotation was used to reinforce the image of the cylindrical structure and determine the probable number of microtubules as nine. The SPB duplicated early in mitosis and separated on the intact nuclear envelope. Nuclear division appears to be intranuclear with spindle and kinetochore microtubules interspersed with condensed chromatin.• Conclusions: This is the sixth type of zygomycetous SPB, and the third type that suggests a modified centriolar component. Coemansia reversa retains SPB character states from an ancestral centriole intermediate between those of fungi with motile cells and other zygomycetous fungi and Dikarya.
Effective prey attraction in the rare Drosophyllum lusitanicum, a flypaper‐trap carnivorous plant
Authors: Bertol Nils , Paniw Maria , Ojeda Fernando 
Published: May 2015

• Premise of the study: Carnivorous plants have unusually modified leaves to trap insects as an adaptation to low‐nutrient environments. Disparate mechanisms have been suggested as luring traits to attract prey insects into their deadly leaves, ranging from very elaborate to none at all. Drosophyllum lusitanicum is a rare carnivorous plant with a common flypaper‐trap mechanism. Here we tested whether Drosophyllum plants lure prey insects into their leaves or they act just as passive traps.• Methods: We compared prey capture between live, potted plants and Drosophyllum‐shaped artificial mimics coated with odorless glue. Since this species is insect‐pollinated, we also explored the possible existence of a pollinator–prey conflict by quantifying the similarity between the pollination and prey guilds in a natural population. All experiments were done in southern Spain.• Key results: The sticky leaves of Drosophyllum captured significantly more prey than mimics, particularly small dipterans. Prey attraction, likely exerted by scent or visual cues, seems to be unrelated to pollinator attraction by flowers, as inferred from the low similarity between pollinator and prey insect faunas found in this species.• Conclusions: Our results illustrate the effectiveness of this carnivorous species at attracting insects to their flypaper‐trap leaves.
Retour sur les raisons de la colère

Published: May 2015

L’article, à travers une étude de cas d’un ancien émeutier, envisage la participation aux émeutes urbaines comme un moment biographique, situé et situant, et une expérience personnelle, signifiante et significative. Il rend compte « par le bas » et de façon rétrospective du sens de l’évènement pour ceux qui l’ont fait exister. Se dégagent une métaphysique des émeutes - où l’expérience de la mort et de l’interpellation policière renvoie à un sentiment d’insécurité symbolique exacerbé, une poétique des émeutes – où la dimension festive, cohésive et transcendante est tout aussi centrale – et une politique des émeutes – où se conjuguent révolte contre « le pouvoir », impératif de visibilité et cynisme stratégique, dix ans après.
Déterminer la valeur de l’innovation en train de se faire, c’est aussi et déjà innover
Authors: Bertheau Philippe , Garel Gilles 
Published: May 2015

La recherche en gestion a établi l’imprévisibilité du succès d’une innovation. Un corollaire largement accepté veut que la détermination de la valeur de cette innovation ne puisse être que tardive, voire rétrospective. Nous observons dans cette recherche que les acteurs directs de l’innovation sont à même de procéder à une détermination de la valeur précoce, complète et révisable. Nous appuyant sur la théorie C-K, nous montrons que ces équipes appliquent à la détermination de la valeur le même type de raisonnement qu’à l’innovation elle-même. Nous montrons également que ce travail de conception innovante passe par la génération d’outils de gestion locaux, souvent à l’usage exclusif du projet et utilisés pour mettre à l’épreuve les différents concepts de valeur.

La contribution de la recherche universitaire à la formation d’un système sectoriel d’innovation agro-alimentaire au Cameroun
Authors: Fofiri Nzossie Eric Joel , Temple Ludovic , Ndjouenkeu Robert 
Published: May 2015

Les enjeux d’approvisionnements alimentaires des villes en Afrique sub-saharienne doivent orienter les politiques publiques vers le soutien à l’accroissement des disponibilités agricoles et l’amélioration de l’accès aux marchés internationaux. Au Cameroun les investissements dans la recherche universitaire technologique créent un potentiel d’innovations pour le secteur agro-alimentaire mais qui est peu utilisé comme le montrent l’augmentation des prix des produits alimentaires transformés et les importations croissantes. Ce constat pose l’hypothèse du manque de synergie entre la recherche technologique et les besoins du secteur productif. En mobilisant un référentiel d’analyse en termes de système d’innovation, nous testons cette hypothèse à partir des travaux réalisés à l’École Nationale Supérieure des Sciences Agro-Industrielles (ENSAI). Les résultats montrent que si la recherche universitaire technologique contribue à la formation du capital humain, elle est conditionnée par les opportunités financières internationales et des initiatives individuelles. Les outputs en termes de connaissances et technologies sont peu transformés en innovations mobilisables par le système productif. Codes JEL : D83, O13, O32
