Ovrednotenje genskih virov belih sort žlahtne vinske trte (Vitis vinifera L.)
Authors: PELENGIĆ Radojko , PIPAN Barbara , MEGLIČ Vladimir , RUSJAN Denis 
Published: December 2023

Geografska lega, klimatske razmere in zgodovinska pripadnost so glavni dejavniki, ki so botrovali k oblikovanju raznolikega sortimenta sort žlahtne vinske trte na območju današnje Slovenije. Sorte žlahtne vinske trte (Vitis vinifera L.) je mogoče opisati na več nivojih in z različnimi metodami. Ovrednotenje ali celo okarakterizacija lahko poteka na podlagi morfoloških, morfometričnih, biokemijskih in genetskih značilnosti posamezne sorte. V prispevku smo na podlagi analiz karotenoidnih pigmentov ter DNK analiz z uporabo molekulskih markerjev ugotavljali podobnosti in sorodnost med 17-imi akcesijami žlahtne vinske trte. Namen raziskave je bil odkriti morebitno povezavo med karotenoidnimi profili in meritvami barve sort ter ovrednotenje kemotaksonomskega potenciala dobljenih rezultatov za razlikovanje sort žlahtne vinske trte. Dobljene rezultate smo primerjali z rezultati analiz z metodo mikrosatelitov. V raziskavo smo vključili 17 različnih genskih virov belih sort žlahtne vinske trte, ki so posajene v kolekcijskem vinogradu Biotehniške fakultete (BF), ki obenem služi tudi kot genska banka. Rezultati evalvacije obravnavanih genskih virov belih sort žlahtne vinske trte se tako na biokemijskem kot tudi na genetskem nivoju dopolnjujejo, kar pomeni, da so obravnavane akcesije generalno razdelili v tri večje skupine, znotraj katerih prihaja do manjših odstopanj, kar je verjetno posledica lastnosti posameznih genotipov in vpliva okolja.

Abstract
The enthalpies of mixing in liquid alloys of the ternary Ag–Eu–Sn system were determined over a wide range of concentrations by means of isoperibolic calorimetry in the temperature range from 1313 to 1373 K. The partial enthalpies of each component of the ternary system were measured along the following sections:

The minimum value of the integral enthalpy of about −60 kJ mol−1 is observed in the composition region of the congruently melting Eu2Sn phase.
Peirce Decompositions for Evolution Algebras
Authors: Paniello Irene 
Published: December 2023

ABSTRACT
We address Peirce decompositions for evolution algebras at idempotent elements contained in the associative nucleus of the evolution algebras. If the idempotent elements are natural vectors, the requirement of being nuclear is then proved to be equivalent to the evolution algebra to be baric. A description of baric evolution algebras is also provided.
Impact of process parameters on transitions in the microstructural characteristics and mechanical attributes of Ti–6Al–4V alloy joints during FSW
Authors: Srinivasan D. , Sevvel P. , Gunasekaran J . 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Transformations in microstructural characteristics and mechanical attributes of friction stir welded 3 mm thick Ti–6Al–4V alloy plates was investigated by employing distinctive tool rotational and traverse speeds. Impact of these parameters on microstructural transitions, generation of flaws, hardness, and tensile properties of the joints were analyzed. Increase in rotational speed from 1200 rpm to 1600 rpm have contributed for escalation in temperature, even above the β transus temperature. Large sized lamellar alpha grains was found to be transformed into finely refined lamellar alpha + altered beta grains in uppermost portion of nugget zone of joints fabricated at 1600 rpm and 50 mm/min combinations. This transformation have occurred due to the impact of the thermal cycles and stirring mechanism. These joints were found to be free from flaws including volumetric related defects, kissing bond, tunnel flaws. Majority of the fabricated joints possessed lowest value of mechanical properties in their heat affected zone and exhibited fracture in this zone. Properties of Ti–6Al–4V alloy joints were evaluated with respect to pseudo index of heat and it was observed that rotational speed of the tool is a dominant parameter in impacting both the mechanical attributes and microstructural transformations of the joints.
Research on high-bandwidth linear active disturbance rejection control method for variable speed turboshaft engine
Authors: Huang Bo , Li Wenbo , Peng Yerong , Song Jie 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
The wide flight range and high torsional vibration frequency of high-speed helicopters impose stricter criteria for the high-bandwidth control of turboshaft engines. Consequently, research is underway to implement a high-bandwidth control method for turboshaft engines using the linear active disturbance rejection control (LADRC) theory. Initially, the LADRC is designed based on the mathematical model of the integrated helicopter/engine system. To address the challenge of maintaining control quality with varying speed reference commands for the power turbine, an improved LADRC method with tracking differentiators (TD) is developed. Numerical simulations comparing the control effectiveness of LADRC with TD to cascade PID and conventional LADRC methods are conducted. The results demonstrate that the improved LADRC gains have a wider tuning range than the LADRC controller, and the power turbine speed tracking effect of LADRC with TD is optimal. It is more conducive to accomplish high-bandwidth control of turboshaft engine with variable rotational speed.
Occupational recognition during the Covid-19 pandemic: differences between occupational groups and the association with compliance with infection control measures
Authors: Babst Axel , Groß Martin , Lang Volker 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This paper examines two research questions. First, we investigate whether specific occupational groups experienced changes in the recognition they received during the Covid-19 crisis. Second, we analyse whether occupational recognition can promote compliance with infection control measures. In addition, we distinguish between a micro-level of job recognition and compliance in the direct working environment on the one hand and a macro-level of recognition of occupational groups and general acceptance of infection control measures on the other. We find that health care occupations and “basic occupations” (essential occupations that do not require formal training) report an increase in recognition received by society during the pandemic, but still perceive the lowest levels of recognition overall. These groups also report lower levels of political recognition and do not feel adequately remunerated. Furthermore, occupational recognition has a positive impact on compliance with infection control measures. We identify institutional trust as the most important mediator. While occupational recognition in the immediate work environment has the greatest impact on micro-level compliance at the workplace, occupational recognition at the macro-level is relevant for accepting closures of public facilities, various restrictions and the intention to get vaccinated.
Occupational health in slaughterhouses in Germany: translating political claims into Legal Language during the COVID-19 pandemic
Authors: Valdivia Alejandro , Gallon Johannes , Mangold Anna Katharina 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic provided political momentum for social and legal change in occupational health in slaughterhouses in Germany. After years of unsuccessful scandalisation over the precarious working conditions in slaughterhouses, a comprehensive legislative framework was introduced in 2020: the Federal Occupational Health and Safety Control Act (Arbeitsschutzkontrollgesetz). This article traces the political and legal events leading to the enactment of this legislation, contributing to a wider empirical debate about the interaction of civil society and democratic institutions. Methodologically, we combine a legal analysis of the legislative process with a political science analysis of the participation of civil society actors, mainly labour unions. Theoretically, we explore how civil society actors translated the content of political claims into legal arguments through the lens of disciplinary translations and knowledge translation. The results of our study highlight the importance of translations as a hermeneutic concept for bringing about legal changes.

Zur Auswirkung eines Stakings auf die Rechtsposition der Kunden im Falle der Insolvenz des Kryptoverwahrers
Authors: Skauradszun Dominik , Kümpel Jeremias , Schweizer Selina , Gramlich Vincent 
Published: December 2023

Zusammenfassung
Für die Vertrauenswürdigkeit von Finanzdienstleistungsinstituten, die das Kryptoverwahrgeschäft nach § 1 Abs. 1a Satz 2 Nr. 6 KWG betreiben, ist es essenziell, dass die Kunden ihre verwahrten Kryptowerte in der Insolvenz des Instituts aussondern können. Wäre dies nicht der Fall und würde den Kunden im Fall der Insolvenz des Instituts womöglich ein Totalverlust drohen, würde dies die Attraktivität des Geschäftsmodells der Kryptoverwahrer erheblich beeinträchtigen und voraussichtlich Kunden dazu bewegen, die Verwahrung der eigenen Kryptowerte bzw. kryptographischen Schlüssel ohne Rückgriff auf ein solches Institut selbst zu übernehmen. Demgegenüber löst die Aussicht auf eine Rendite durch das sog. Staking für die Kunden einen Reiz aus. Im Rahmen des Stakings werden die Kryptowerte durch den Inhaber selbst oder seinen Kryptoverwahrer für den Proof-of-Stake-Konsensmechanismus einer Blockchain hinterlegt, wodurch sich fortlaufend weitere Kryptowerte verdienen lassen (sog. Rewards). Von einem einzelnen Kunden lässt sich dies in aller Regel nicht effizient durchführen, sodass diese Aussicht auf ein passives Einkommen für eine Verwahrung durch entsprechende Institute spricht. Es könnte insofern ein Zielkonflikt zwischen Insolvenzschutz und Renditechancen bestehen, d. h. die Aussichten auf eine Rendite könnten sich negativ auf den Schutz der Kunden in der Insolvenz des Kryptoverwahrers auswirken. Der Beitrag untersucht daher, ob und wann ein solcher Einsatz von sammelverwahrten Kryptowerten für den Proof-of-Stake-Konsensmechanismus (Staking) Aussonderungsrechte kraft fremdnütziger Treuhand oder kraft unwiderleglicher Vermutung nach § 46i KWG n. F. tangiert. Die Autoren schlagen eine aus dem BGB abgeleitete „Früchtelösung“ vor, mit der das Staking bei vollem Schutz der Kunden in der Insolvenz des Kryptoverwahrers ermöglicht wird.
The Concept of the Lithuanian-Latvian Border Region
Authors: Noreikaitė Auksė 
Published: December 2023

The object of the article is the border territory on the side of the Republic of Lithuania, called Palatvijys, and its concept. The aim is to find out what criteria can be used to distinguish this Lithuanian-Latvian border region and reveal the most significant features. Information found in dictionaries, the press, legal documents, various scientific literature, as well as empirical material collected by the author in several stages (in 2008-2019) were used to reveal the topic. The methods applied in this research were qualitative content analysis, case analysis, interpretive methods, and quantitative analysis. The theoretical approaches of geographers, anthropologists, and sociologists talking about the construction of regions and identity were relevant for the analysis of the topic.
The Lithuanian-Latvian border is undoubtedly a unique territory, where the cultural environment of the border and the “sense of place” of the inhabitants have been formed for many centuries. We can accurately define only the length of the Lithuanian-Latvian border region, which coincides with the state land border – 588.09 km, and its width differs both in the concepts of residents and in the studies of scientists. However, social and humanities sciences allow us to talk about a region that is not defined by physical boundaries and is changing, constructed according to various socio-cultural criteria. For this reason, the boundaries of the Lithuanian-Latvian region are relative, in their concept it is important to take into account the emic approach, i.e. how the local people understand and value the boundaries. This article is the first attempt to present the Lithuanian-Latvian border area or Palatviiys as a region. In further research, it would be appropriate to delve more deeply into the cultural features of this region, which were formed by the interaction of Lithuanians, Latvians, and Germans, as well as to analyse social relations – communication between Lithuanians and Latvians, movement on both sides of the border, and the expression of regional identity, especially semi-Latvian (skerslatviai) identity.
Education on Rural Construction Issues in Lithuania, 1918–1940
Authors: Pilkauskienė Vigilija 
Published: December 2023

In this article the education of farmers and craftsmen about the construction of modern farmsteads during interwar period is assessed. Information on the subject was collected from interwar press and archival documents. The main features of modern interwar farmsteads are rational structuring, compliance with hygiene requirements, comfortability and aestheticism. These ideas were propagated by state institutions, although up to the 3rd decade it was not fully established. When the administration of rural construction matters was commissioned to the Žemės ūkio rūmai, the most important works in this direction were carried out. The Construction Department was established in 1929, and the construction technicians who worked there were the key players in the promotion of the conceptual framework. Therefore, their proper training and the provision of the necessary number of specialists was an essential prerequisite for the purposeful education of farmers and building tradesmen.
Organising education for farmers one of the main goals was to achieve the largest possible number of persons and thus promote the importance of the implementation of the ideas of modernization of rural construction. Therefore, for this, the periodical press, educational publications, short-term courses and lectures on the issues of improving rural construction and the management of homesteads, as well as exhibitions where construction technologies were demonstrated and specialist advice was provided, were actively used for this. Given the gradual increase in farmers’ interest in the ideas promoted, as well as their active participation in the educational programmes, there is no doubt that the measures chosen were quite successful.
Rural craftsmen also played an equally important role in the modernisation campaign. Therefore, since the end of the 1930s, short courses have been organised annually to raise their qualifications. The scope of these works was rising, although it affected only part of craftsmen and did not solve the lack of qualified specialists. In the 4th decade, the new laws and rules of rural building regulation were implemented. Also, the necessity for higher number of qualified construction craftsmen that would be able to implement modern building principles was realized. This resulted in first specialized craft schools for carpenters, masons and furnace workers. It was thought that these schools together with earlier courses had to form construction craftsmen education system. Although work in this direction was halted shortly afterwards, the establishment of the specialised schools was an indication of the prioritisation of construction issues and thus of the implementation of modernisation principles.

THE EFFECTS OF DIFFERENT SOWING TIMES ON THE PHENOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND SEED YIELD OF THE PEA
Authors: ÖNCAN SÜMER Feride 
Published: December 2023

The pea is a legume with a high protein content and high nutritional value. In recent times, it has come to be
consumed as a frozen and canned food as well as fresh. It has a special place among legumes because of its
suitability for crop rotation. In Turkey, it is mostly grown as a winter crop in the western regions. Sowing
takes place in the fall for the winter growing season. Determining the best sowing time is vital to avoid cold
damage. This study was conducted over two years in 2020-21 and 2021-22 growing seasons in the field crops
trial fields of Aydin Adnan Menderes University Faculty of Agriculture. During the study, the dry matter
values and GDD (growing degree days) of four pea cultivars (Giresun, Mayer, Local 1 and Local 2) were
calculated at four phenological periods (emergence, flowering, pod set and maturity) for three different sowing
times (November 1, November 20 and December 10). In addition, the yield and yield characteristics and
protein content were analyzed. Among the four varieties, Mayer (1.95t ha-1) recorded the highest yield value,
while Giresun (25.6%) achieved the highest protein content. The number of days to maturity, dry matter
content and GDD values of the varieties at the different phenological periods varied with the sowing time.
Higher GDD and dry matter content levels were measured in early sowing. The later the sowing, the shorter
the period from pod set to maturation and the lower the dry matter content.

Published: December 2023

Age and sex must be determined for forensic practise and medico-legal objectives. The mandible, which is the most heterogeneous bone in the skull and is frequently found intact, may be a key component in sex assessment. In this regard, the availability of a large number of antemortem orthopantomograms may be very beneficial in researching and creating standards that are population-specific for precise sex and age determination. Determining the value of different mandibular ramus linear and gonial angle measures as sex and age markers on digital panoramic pictures was the goal of the current investigation. This retrospective study was conducted on 600 orthopantomogram of patients of both gender with age group of 18 to 50 years. The selected JPEG images of the digital OPG’s were converted to PDF format and exported to Adobe Acrobat Reader software on an HP Laptop for assessment of linear and angular measurements. The parameters employed in the current study were projective ramus height (PRH), condylar ramus height (CNNRH), coronoid ramus height (CRRH), upper ramus breadth (URB), lower ramus breadth (LRB), bigonial width (BW) and gonial angle (GA). The right PRH, CRRH, CNRH, URB, LRB and bigonial width were higher in males as compared to females similarly left PRH, CNRH, CRRH, URB were higher in males as compared to females with a statistically significant P value (0.001) It was concluded from the current study that various parameters, including the projective ramus height, minimum ramus breath, and coronoid ramus height, could be very helpful in determining gender.
The transcriptome of acute dehydration in myeloid leukemic cells
Authors: Mark Welch David B. , Gould Travis J. , Olins Ada L. , Olins Donald E. 
Published: December 2023

Human myeloid leukemia cells (HL-60/S4) exposed to hyperosmotic stress with sucrose undergo dehydration and cell shrinkage. Interphase chromatin and mitotic chromosomes congeal, exhibiting altered phase separation (demixing) of chromatin proteins. To investigate changes in the transcriptome, we exposed HL-60/S4 cells to hyperosmotic sucrose stress (~600 milliOsmolar) for 30 and 60 minutes. We employed RNA-Seq of polyA mRNA to identify genes with increased or decreased transcript levels relative to untreated control cells (i.e., differential gene expression). These genes were examined for over-representation of Gene Ontology (GO) terms. In stressed cells, multiple GO terms associated with transcription, translation, mitochondrial function and proteosome activity, as well as “replication-dependent histones”, were over-represented among genes with increased transcript levels; whereas, genes with decreased transcript levels were over-represented with transcription repressors. The transcriptome profiles of hyperosmotically-stressed cells suggest acquisition of cellular rebuilding, a futile homeostatic response, as these cells are ultimately doomed to a dehydrated death.
