Authors: Sidiq F F , Coles D , Hubbard C , Clark B , Frewer L J 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
Ensuring Food security within indigenous communities may depend on ensuring the continuation of access to traditional food resources. A systematic literature review focused on traditional diets and food security for indigenous peoples in Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs) examined the role of such diets in relation to food security and other factors. Thirty-seven studies matching the inclusion criteria were identified through literature searches, and thematic analysis applied to identify important findings. The results indicate that traditional foods have a significant role in promoting and maintaining food security, as well as in the preservation of cultures and the environments in which these are embedded. The research suggests that there is a need to promote and preserve traditional food knowledge within indigenous peoples.

Abstract
Kemang (Mangifera kemanga) is a wild relative of mango (Mangifera indica) with a tree-shaped habitus. Kemang was even designated as the identity flora of Bogor Regency. Several accessions of Kemang are found in the Cibinong Science Center Botanic Garden (CSC-BG) area, but their diversity has not been disclosed. This study aimed to provide information on the genetic diversity of the accessions Kemang in the CSC-BG Garden germplasm. A total of 17 out of 58 accessions were successfully obtained from young tissue samples, but for RAPD analysis, 13 accession numbers were used. The performance of each plant and physiological conditions and equipment became an obstacle to obtaining samples from all accessions. Further out of the 32 primers screened, 24 were selected (polymorphic), giving 312 clear and bright bands in 13 accessions. As much as 75.0% of primers were polymorphic, 6.25% monomorphic, and 18.75% did not produce bands. Furthermore, all primers had a moderate informative PIC value. The phylogenetic tree and scatter plot of PCoA show similar groupings. While the correlation between accession Kemang 2 and Kemang 13 has the highest closeness and vice versa in Kemang 7 and Kemang 6. These results provide information on the initial genetic diversity of the Kemang population in Germplasm Garden CSC BG.

Published: February 2022

Abstract

Ganoderma is known to be the most destructive pathogen of oil palm crops in Southeast Asia, including Indonesia, and causes heavy losses. Various control methods such as technical culture, mechanical, and chemical control have been attempted, but these techniques have not been able to control the disease successfully. One of the efforts to overcome the conditions and characteristics of Ganoderma which is difficult to control is to apply biological control. This study aims to obtain candidate antagonist bacteria indigenous to peatlands that can control Ganoderma sp. This research was exploratory research with laboratory testing. Based on the exploration results, 10 isolates were obtained based on initial characteristics and were not pathogenic after the Hypersensitivity Reaction assay. Based on the results of the inhibitory ability test, 3 isolates (LPTUNRI-A1.2, A1.1, and A2.5) were obtained that could suppress the development of Ganoderma sp. LPTUNRI-Gan003 in vitro. From its characteristics, it is suspected that it has similarities with Bacillus sp.

Abstract
Drought tolerance is important trait for rice. Developing simple system for drought tolerance screening will increase efficiency and effectiveness of breeding for the certain purpose. This research aimed to screen selected variety for drought under limited semi controlled space system. The trial was conducted at the limited open space with controlled irrigation and drainage system in the area of Indonesian Centre of Rice Research green houses in Subang, West Java, from July to November 2019. Twenty varieties selected from previous drought screenings using concrete box method were transplanted at 21 days after sowing with planting space of 20 x 20 cm 1 – 3 seedling/hill in a single row of 10 plants followed randomized complete block design with two replications. The materials were watered for 4 weeks since transplanting. Re-watering was given until harvesting since IR 20 (drought sensitive check) was completely dry. The results showed variation level of drought tolerance among the tested genotypes. Based on leaf drying score at five weeks after treatment, Inpago 9 and Cisaat along with Salumpikit (drought tolerant check) were considered relatively tolerant. Inpago 9 (41.8 g) followed by Inpari 42 (34.7 g), and Inpago 8 (30.1 g) had the highest yield.

Abstract
Harvest failure due to blast (Pyricularia oryzae) in Indonesia was ranked fourth during 2015-2020. Establishing a panicle blast-resistant rice variety is crucial to prevent broader damage. The research aimed to evaluate the yield productivity at the blast endemic areas. The field experiment was held from April to July 2019 at Curugkembar Sukabumi. The statistic field design used Augmented with five blocks to manage 122 advanced rice lines in total, and six check varieties included leaf blast-resistant varieties. Pest and disease control based on Integrated Pest Management (IPM) standards, except for blast disease. Leaf blast infection occurs from vegetative and lasts to generative, which then continues to be a severed panicle blast. All tested lines and varieties were infected, with different severity. Two rice lines were resistant to panicle blast (scale 0), two lines were moderate resistant (scale 3), and the rest were susceptible (scale 5-9). The results of the augmented analysis for yield production showed that BP30533D-SKI-29-3-3 (8.96 t/ha) and BP31501D-SKI-28-1-0-0 (7.69 t/ha) lines were significantly better than INPARI 41 (3.6 t/ha) but susceptible to panicle blast (scaled 5 and 7). This result indicates that yield testing and blast screening would be better to run simultaneously.

Published: February 2022

Abstract
Tillandsia subgenera Diaphoranthema and Phytarrhiza s.s. are closely related epiphytic and epilithic plants adapted to xeric habitats in the Americas. Several studies suggested that subgenus Diaphoranthema and the xerophytic species of subgenus Phytarrhiza should not be segregated into different subgenera. In recent phylogenetic analyses of Tillandsioideae, subgenus Phytarrhiza s.l. is revealed as highly polyphyletic, showing a xerophytic lineage closely related to subgenus Diaphoranthema. Moreover, the evolution of neotenic traits, a selfing breeding system and polyembryony have yet to be fully investigated in a phylogenetic context. Infrageneric classifications and phylogenetic relationships were inferred using the plastid matK-trnK and nuclear ETS markers and morphology. Phylogenetic analyses of individual and combined molecular data sets were performed under parsimony and Bayesian inference. Our results confirm subgenus Diaphoranthema as monophyletic if three xeric species of subgenus Phytarrhiza are included. In subgenus Diaphoranthema, aggregates Loliacea and Rectangula were recovered as monophyletic, whereas Myosura was paraphyletic and Caliginosa, Capillaris and Recurvata were polyphyletic. Alternative groupings and morphological trends are discussed. Analysis of morphological characters associated with heterochrony indicates that neoteny may not be the only paedomorphic process in the evolution of this group. Furthermore, paedomorphosis would occur in some vegetative structures, inflorescences and flowers, whereas some fruit and seed traits could be modified by peramorphosis.

Abstract

OBJECTIVES
The goal of this study was to analyse early- and long-term outcomes of aortic valve reimplantation (David operation) in patients with heritable thoracic aortic disease.

METHODS
This is a retrospective observational analysis using data from a prospectively maintained surgical database from March 2004 to April 2021. Patients with heritable thoracic aortic disease were included in the study.

RESULTS
A total of 157 patients with aortic root aneurysm with the diagnosis of heritable thoracic aortic disease received the David procedure. Marfan syndrome was found in 143 (91.1%) patients, Loeys-Dietz in 13 and Ehler-Danlos in 1 patient. The median age was 35.0 (IQR: 17.5) years and the median ascending aorta diameter in the Valsalva sinuses was 48 mm (IQR: 4). A Valsalva graft was used in 8 patients; the David V technique was performed in the rest of the cases. The median follow-up time was 7.3 years [standard deviation: 0.58, 95% confidence interval (CI): 6.12–8.05]. Only 2 patients died during the follow-up period. The overall survival was 99% (95% CI: 95%; 99%); 98% (95% CI: 92%; 99%); and 98% (95% CI: 92%; 99%) at 5, 10 and 15 years. Freedom from significant aortic regurgitation (AR&gt; II), reintervention and postoperative type-B dissection was 90% (95% CI: 77%; 95%), 96% (95% CI: 91%; 99%) and 87% (95% CI: 68%; 95%) at 15 years, respectively. No differences were found in any outcome between Marfan syndrome and Loeys-Dietz syndrome. No statistically significant differences in survival were found when we compared expected gender- and age-specific population survival values.

CONCLUSIONS
The David operation is an excellent option for the treatment of patients with heritable thoracic aortic disease and dilatated aortic root. Surgical expertise in referral centres is essential to achieve the best long-term results.
Multimorbidity and exit from paid employment: the effect of specific combinations of chronic health conditions
Authors: Gurgel do Amaral Gabriel S , Ots Patricia , Brouwer Sandra , van Zon Sander K R 
Published: February 2022

Abstract

Background
This study aimed to assess the association between multimorbidity and exit from paid employment, and which combinations of chronic health conditions (CHCs) have the strongest association with exit from paid employment.

Methods
Data from 111 208 workers aged 18–64 years from Lifelines were enriched with monthly employment data from Statistics Netherlands. Exit from paid employment during follow-up was defined as a change from paid employment to unemployment, disability benefits, economic inactivity or early retirement. CHCs included cardiovascular diseases (CVD), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and depression. Cox-proportional hazards models were used to examine the impact of multimorbidity and combinations of CHCs on exit from paid employment.

Results
Multimorbidity increased the risk of exiting paid employment compared with workers without CHCs (hazard ratio (HR): 1.52; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.35–1.71) or one CHC (HR: 1.14; 95% CI: 1.01–1.28). The risk for exit from paid employment increased among workers with COPD if they additionally had CVD (HR: 1.39; 95% CI: 1.03–1.88), depression (HR: 1.46; 95% CI: 1.10–1.93) or RA (HR: 1.44; 95% CI: 1.08–1.91), for workers with T2DM if they additionally had CVD (HR: 1.43; 95% CI: 1.07–1.91) or depression (HR: 2.09; 95% CI: 1.51–2.91) and for workers with depression who also had T2DM (HR: 1.68; 95% CI: 1.21–2.32).

Conclusion
This study showed that workers with multimorbidity, especially having a combination of COPD and depression or T2DM and depression, have a higher risk for early exit from paid employment and, therefore, may need tailored support at the workplace.

Abstract
Cultivated soybean (Glycine max) is an important source for protein and oil. Many elite cultivars with different traits have been developed for different conditions. Each soybean strain has its own genetic diversity, and the availability of more high-quality soybean genomes can enhance comparative genomic analysis for identifying genetic underpinnings for its unique traits. In this study, we constructed a high-quality de novo assembly of an elite soybean cultivar Jidou 17 (JD17) with chromosome contiguity and high accuracy. We annotated 52,840 gene models and reconstructed 74,054 high-quality full-length transcripts. We performed a genome-wide comparative analysis based on the reference genome of JD17 with 3 published soybeans (WM82, ZH13, and W05), which identified 5 large inversions and 2 large translocations specific to JD17, 20,984–46,912 presence–absence variations spanning 13.1–46.9 Mb in size. A total of 1,695,741–3,664,629 SNPs and 446,689–800,489 Indels were identified and annotated between JD17 and them. Symbiotic nitrogen fixation genes were identified and the effects from these variants were further evaluated. It was found that the coding sequences of 9 nitrogen fixation-related genes were greatly affected. The high-quality genome assembly of JD17 can serve as a valuable reference for soybean functional genomics research.

Published: February 2022

Abstract

Background
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is the most prevalent type of OA and a leading cause of disability in the United States. Falls are a major public health concern in older adults. Our aim was to examine how the severity of radiographic KOA affects recurrent falls in a cohort of middle-aged and older individuals enrolled in the Osteoarthritis Initiative.

Methods
About 3 972 participants, mean age of 63 years, 58% female were included. Participants were divided into 5 mutually exclusive groups based on their worst Kellgren–Lawrence grade of radiographic KOA from annual x-rays from baseline to 36 months. Generalized estimating equations for repeated logistic regression were used to model the association between KOA severity and the likelihood of recurrent falls (≥2 falls/year) over 5 years of follow-up (&gt;36 to 96 months).

Results
Older adults (≥age 65) with KOA were at higher odds of recurrent falls in comparison to individuals without KOA in multivariate models (possible OA odds ratio [OR] = 2.22, 95% CI = 1.09–4.52; mild OA OR = 2.48, 95% CI = 1.34–4.62; unilateral moderate–severe OA OR = 2.84, 95% CI = 1.47–5.50; bilateral moderate–severe OA OR = 2.52, 95% CI = 1.13–5.62). Middle-aged adults (aged 45–64) with KOA did not have increased odds of recurrent falls in comparison to those without KOA except for possible KOA (OR = 1.86, 95% CI = 1.01–2.78; KOA severity × Age interaction = 0.025).

Conclusion
Older adults with radiographic evidence of KOA have an increased likelihood of experiencing recurrent falls in comparison to those without KOA independent of established risk factors. Our results suggest that fall prevention efforts should include older adults with all stages of KOA.
Theoretical modelling of seismic dispersion, attenuation and frequency-dependent anisotropy in a fluid-saturated porous rock with intersecting fractures

Published: February 2022

SUMMARYDetection of intersecting open fractures is an important task in many earth science domains. To quantify the seismic responses in the fluid-saturated porous rock with intersecting open fractures, we develop a theoretical model based on Biot's equations of dynamic poroelasticity. The seismic dispersion, attenuation and frequency-dependent anisotropy due to joint effects of fracture–background wave-induced fluid flow (FB-WIFF), and fracture–fracture wave-induced fluid flow (FF-WIFF), as well as elastic scattering are investigated. The numerical results on a fluid-saturated porous and fractured sandstone show that the characteristic frequency of FF-WIFF is controlled by fracture connectivity and fluid viscosity. Variations of fracture connectivity and fluid viscosity may result in the coupling of FF-WIFF with FB-WIFF or elastic scattering. When the fracture connectivity tends to zero, the FF-WIFF vanishes and FB-WIFF becomes most significant. Besides fracture connectivity and fluid viscosity, the fracture geometry and fluid bulk modulus also affect the magnitudes of these three mechanisms and their interplay. Due to effects of these three mechanisms, the P-wave anisotropy varies greatly with frequencies. Furthermore, the fracture intersection angle also influences the P-wave anisotropy significantly. Our model agrees well with previous models in the frequency limits and for the special case with parallel fractures. Since our model incorporates the effects of FF-WIFF, it has a great potential to be applied in the detection for effective fracture networks for fluid flow.

AbstractRetinitis pigmentosa (RP) is caused by one of many possible gene mutations. The National Institutes of Health recommends high daily doses of vitamin A palmitate for RP patients. There is a critical knowledge gap surrounding the therapeutic applicability of vitamin A to patients with the different subtypes of the disease. Here, we present a case report of a patient with RP caused by a p.D190N mutation in Rhodopsin (RHO) associated with abnormally high quantitative autofluorescence values after long-term vitamin A supplementation. We investigated the effects of vitamin A treatment strategy on RP caused by the p.D190N mutation in RHO by exposing Rhodopsin p.D190N (RhoD190N/+) and wild-type (WT) mice to experimental vitamin A-supplemented and standard control diets. The patient’s case suggests that the vitamin A treatment strategy should be further studied to determine its effect on RP caused by p.D190N mutation in RHO and other mutations. Our mouse experiments revealed that RhoD190N/+ mice on the vitamin A diet exhibited higher levels of autofluorescence and lipofuscin metabolites compared to WT mice on the same diet and isogenic controls on the standard control diet. Vitamin A supplementation diminished photoreceptor function in RhoD190N/+ mice while preserving cone response in WT mice. Our findings highlight the importance of more investigations into the efficacy of clinical treatments like vitamin A for patients with certain genetic subtypes of disease and of genotyping in the precision care of inherited retinal degenerations.
