SUMMARYTerpene synthases (TPSs) have diverse biological functions in plants. Though the roles of TPSs in herbivore defense are well established in many plant species, their role in bacterial defense has been scarce and is emerging. Through functional genomics, here we report the in planta role of potato (Solanum tuberosum) terpene synthase (StTPS18) in bacterial defense. Expression of StTPS18 was highest in leaves and was induced in response to Pseudomonas syringae and methyl jasmonate treatments. The recombinant StTPS18 exhibited bona fide (E,E)‐farnesol synthase activity forming a sesquiterpenoid, (E,E)‐farnesol as the sole product, utilising (E,E)‐farnesyl diphosphate (FPP). Subcellular localization of GFP fusion protein revealed that StTPS18 is localized to the cytosol. Silencing and overexpression of StTPS18 in potato resulted in reduced and enhanced tolerance, respectively, to bacterial pathogens P. syringae and Ralstonia solanacearum. Bacterial growth assay using medium containing (E,E)‐farnesol significantly inhibited P. syringae growth. Moreover, StTPS18 overexpressing transgenic potato and Nicotiana tabacum leaves, and (E,E)‐farnesol and P. syringae infiltrated potato leaves exhibited elevated expression of sterol pathway and members of pathogenesis‐related genes with enhanced phytosterol accumulation. Interestingly, enhanced phytosterols in 13C3‐(E,E)‐farnesol infiltrated potato leaves were devoid of any noticeable 13C labeling, indicating no direct utilization of (E,E)‐farnesol in phytosterols formation. Furthermore, leaves of StTPS18 overexpressing transgenic lines had no detectable (E,E)‐farnesol similar to the control plant, and emitted lower levels of sesquiterpenes than the control. These findings point towards an indirect involvement of StTPS18 and its product (E,E)‐farnesol in bacterial defense through upregulation of phytosterol biosynthesis and defense genes.

AbstractBackgroundEvidence‐based practice (EBP) improves the quality of care, decreases healthcare costs, and improves job satisfaction. However, nurses and other clinicians, as well as their institutions, struggle to consistently implement EBP. The Advancing Research and Clinical practice through close Collaboration (ARCC©) Model established that a cadre of EBP mentors is key to improving EBP knowledge, beliefs, competency, and implementation in clinicians. Yet, there has not been a valid and reliable measure of EBP mentorship.AimsThe aim of this study was to determine the psychometric properties of the new 8‐item EBP Mentorship Scale. This scale measures the degree to which clinicians perceive that EBP mentorship is available to them.MethodsThe EBP Mentorship Scale data were obtained from a previous national cross‐sectional descriptive study with 2344 nurses from 19 hospitals and healthcare systems. Descriptive statistics summarized the sample and distributions of the scale items. Cronbach's alpha, exploratory factor analysis (EFA), and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were conducted.ResultsCronbach's alpha of the scale was 0.99. A one‐factor model was supported by EFA and retained for CFA. Model fit indices for CFA indicated a good fit.Linking evidence to actionThe new EBP Mentorship Scale is valid and reliable and can be used to assess the level of EBP mentorship support available in hospitals and healthcare systems. EBP mentors are key in sustaining an EBP organizational culture and enhancing clinician EBP knowledge, beliefs, competency, and implementation.

AbstractWe analyzed the sealing effectiveness of cap rocks bearing different types of stylolites using a combination of petrographic, petrophysical, pore structure, and sealing capacity characterization techniques. This study was based on examples of carbonate cap rocks that seal ultradeep hydrocarbon reservoirs of the Tarim Basin (China). Samples from both drill cores and their outcrop analogues were investigated to quantify how morphology influences the sealing capacity of different types of stylolite-bearing rocks. The study cap rocks consisted of mudstone, wackestone to packstone, grainstone, and dolomitic limestone. Four types of stylolites were identified: rectangular layer, seismogram pinning, suture and sharp peak, and simple wave-like types. The difference in the sealing capacity of carbonate cap rocks is attributed to their pore structure connections and the types of stylolites they develop. Samples bearing simple wave-like stylolites showed the best sealing capacity, followed by those with rectangular layer and suture and sharp peak types, whereas carbonates hosting seismogram pinning types had the lowest sealing capacity. The impact of stylolite segments on the rock sealing properties, however, differed from one segment to another. Rectangular layer–type stylolites could be divided into three distinct segments (with good, moderate, and poor sealing, respectively). Both the seismogram pinning and suture and sharp peak stylolite types were divided in two parts, with the former one having moderate and poor sealing and the latter exhibiting good and moderate sealing. The simple wavelike type had a good sealing capacity all along the pressure-solution seam. The most effective sealing barriers for vertical fluid flow form when (1) calcite and siliceous cements are pervasively distributed in the vicinity of stylolites, forming highly cemented zones with lower porosity and permeability than their surrounding host rocks; (2) stylolites are enriched in insoluble residues; and (3) rare microfractures and dissolution vugs are found along the stylolites. This work provides useful examples for the prediction of the sealing potential of stylolite-bearing carbonate rocks according to stylolite morphology in other geologic settings.
Geophysical extent of the Wyoming Province, western USA: Insights into ancient subduction and craton stability
Authors: Bedrosian Paul A. , Frost Carol D. 
Published: July 2022

AbstractA new 3-D resistivity model, estimated from inversion of magnetotelluric data, images crustal and upper-mantle structure of the Wyoming Province and adjacent areas. The Archean province is imaged as a coherent resistive domain, in sharp contrast to active tectonic domains of the western U.S. Prominent high-conductivity belts define the northern, eastern, and southern margins of the Wyoming Province and are interpreted as sutures marking the remnants of Paleoproterozoic orogens. The model results suggest the northern boundary of the Wyoming Province is located 150 km south of its traditional placement and adjacent to a composite orogen separating the Wyoming Province and Medicine Hat block. The eastern province boundary is clearly imaged along the Black Hills, whereas the western margin is obscured by Cenozoic extension and magmatism. An internal boundary within the Wyoming Province is interpreted to represent a Neoarchean suture; in stark contrast to Proterozoic sutures, though, it is not marked by a high-conductivity belt. This difference in conductivity is speculated to reflect changes in the subduction process through time. The absence of high-conductivity along Archean sutures appears to be global in nature and related to reduced continental freeboard in the Archean which limited continental weathering and the delivery of carbon-rich sediments to the seafloor. Although the entire Wyoming Province has been proposed to have undergone lithospheric modification that lessened its stability, the resistivity model suggests a thick lithospheric root remains in place except along its western margin. These results suggest that Archean cratons may be more resistant to lithospheric modification by influx of heat and fluids associated with extension and plumes than previously thought, and that metasomatism does not necessarily weaken the lithosphere and set a craton on the path to destruction.

Published: July 2022

The effect of phase separation phenomenon in InAlAs layers grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition on the Schottky barrier height (SBH) is investigated. The phase separation into In-rich and Al-rich InxAlyAs columns of InAlAs (x = 0.52, y = 0.48) layers was observed when we grow them at a relatively low temperature below 600 °C. From the photoluminescence spectrum investigation, we found that the band-gap energy decreased from 1.48 eV for a homogeneous In0.52Al0.48As sample to 1.19 eV for a phase-separated InxAl1-xAs sample due to the band-gap lowering effect by In-rich InxAl1-xAs (x > 0.7) region. From the current density-voltage analysis of the InAlAs Schottky diode, it was also confirmed that the phase-separated InAlAs layers showed a lower SBH value of about 250 meV than it for the normal InAlAs layers. The reduction of SBH arising from the phase separation of InAlAs layers resulted in the larger leakage current in InAlAs Schottky diodes.

Philosopher-Strangers: Xenia and Panhellenism in Plato’s Laws
Authors: Flores Samuel Ortencio 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
Since antiquity, there has been little consensus on how to interpret the identity of the anonymous Athenian Stranger of Plato’s Laws. This paper uses the Stranger’s identification as xenos as a starting point in examining the role of xenia in Plato’s Laws. In this dialogue, Plato uses xenia throughout the dialogue to portray philosophic relationships between characters from different poleis and to establish the importance of intercultural and Panhellenic exchange for philosophic friendship and the establishment of an ideal polis. The Laws shows that ideal polis must maintain peaceful and philosophical relations with other cities, and xenia makes this possible.
Xenophon, the Old Oligarch, and Alcibiades
Authors: Altman William H.F. 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
Modifying the conjecture of Wolfgang Helbig (1861) by means of the distinction between Xenophon and his various narrators introduced by Benjamin McCloskey (2017), this paper uses the insights of Hartvig Frisch (1942) to show how drawing a distinction between the first-person speaker in pseudo-Xenophon’s Constitution of the Athenians and its author indicates that the former is Alcibiades and the latter is Xenophon himself.
Geordnete Gemeinschaft. Politische Autarkie bei Aristoteles
Authors: Varga Simon 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
In Aristotelian understanding, political autarky does not imply individual isolation, but the order of all human relationships within the (political) community. The final aim is not ‘not-needing-anybody-else-anymore’, the independent identity, but the collective-cooperative shaping and ordering of life in the immediate forms of community. This includes in a special way (i) basic social-anthropological elements, (ii) economic activities, (iii) civic organization, (iv) social-ethical reflection and (v) friendship. These core elements of Aristotle’s specific political autarky make it clear that man is not only a zōon politikon but also a zōon koinonikon and that he can only realize this ‘political autarky’ in community.
The Best Life in Aristotle’s Politics
Authors: Ishino Keita 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
It is often emphasized that the Athenians viewed philosophy as essentially apolitical or anti-political. Placed in this context, Aristotle’s Politics 7.1–7.3 deserves special attention because here Aristotle presents his argument on the best life for ‘each human being (ἑκάστῳ τε τῶν ἀνθρώπων) and commonly for cities and human beings (κοινῇ ταῖς πόλεσι καὶ τοῖς ἀνθρώποις)’, which culminates in his conclusion that ‘the same life (τὸν αὐτὸν βίον)’ is the best for them (Pol. 7.3.1325b30–32). This paper attempts to show that ‘the same life’ does not mean a life consisting of activity of the same content but rather of the same type or kind, and that Aristotle semantically differentiates between ἑκάστῳ τε τῶν ἀνθρώπων and τοῖς ἀνθρώποις and assigns a sphere of philosophy to the former and a sphere of politics to the latter, which helps him mitigate the tension between the philosophical life and the political life.
