description: Se validaron once dosis de fertilización para el cultivo de caña de azúcar generadas mediante el Sistema Integral para Recomendar Dosis de Fertilización (SIRDF). Se establecieron experimentos en 11 subunidades de suelo de la zona de abastecimiento del Ingenio Pujiltic, en Chiapas, México, para comparar las dosis del SIRDF y las usadas por los productores, además de una composta en dosis de 10 t ha-1. En cada parcela se aplicaron los tratamientos dos meses después de la brotación del cultivo; cada tratamiento se fraccionó en tres réplicas que se consideraron como repeticiones. Cuatro meses después de la emergencia se hizo un diagnóstico foliar en campo. A partir de noviembre 2011, se inició el seguimiento de la madurez. El rendimiento se estimó a partir de muestreos de tallo moledero y la calidad de los jugos se determinó a partir de diez tallos por repetición. Las variables (madurez, rendimiento y calidad de jugos) se analizaron con un diseño factorial 8X3, debido a la cosecha anticipada de algunas parcelas. Los resultados mostraron que las dosis de fertilizantes-SIRDF fueron superiores respecto a las que aplican los productores, incluyendo aquellas que tuvieron aplicación de cachaza en todas las subunidades de suelo. La calidad de los jugos no fue modificada por ningún tratamiento. Nutrimentalmente se observó que la composta y las dosis SIRDF fueron satisfactorias en cuanto a nitrógeno y potasio para el cultivo; sin embargo, todos los suelos registraron deficiencias de potasio. Los rendimientos más bajos se asociaron a suelos Fluvisol, Cambisol y Vertisol, que retienen mucha humedad.

description: The 2010–2011 Canterbury earthquake sequence in Christchurch, New Zealand caused widespread building damage. In response to each significant earthquake, local and central government and some private organisations conducted safety evaluation surveys. Furthermore, an extensive network of strong motion stations yielded a large ground motion data set. This report describes the tasks undertaken by the authors in association with their partners to (i) scrutinise and organise the massive amount of collected data; and (ii) derive a compiled and extensible damage database for non-residential buildings. The developed database provides pre-earthquake details of building characteristics, the shaking to which they were exposed, and the damage sustained by them. A distinctive feature of the database is the accumulation of incremental damage between events. The database is made as versatile as possible in order to benefit the myriad of fundamental and applied research communities by means of sharing the database. In addition, lessons learned and future research needs are highlighted and discussed.

description: Fog and other such weather conditions hamper the visibility of runway surfaces and any obstacles present on the runway, creating a situation where a pilot may not be able to safely land the aircraft. Assisting the pilot to land the aircraft safely in such conditions is an active area of research. A new method is being investigated that combines non-linear image enhancement with classification of runway edges to detect objects on the runway. The image is segmented into runway and non-runway regions, and objects that are found in the runway regions are deemed to constitute potential hazards. For runway edge classification, long, continuous edges in the image stream are used. This thesis describes a new method for edge-detection that is robust to the imaging conditions under which the imagery is acquired. This edge-detection method extracts edges using a locally adaptive threshold for the detection. The proposed algorithm is evaluated qualitatively and quantitatively on different types of images, especially acquired under poor visibility conditions. Additionally the results of our new algorithm are compared with other, more conventional edge detectors.

description: Se evaluó la respuesta de dos variedades de caña de azúcar (Mex 69-290 y CP 72-2086) al tratamiento con NaCl (0, 50 y 100 mM) en una solución nutritiva en fase de plántula. Los indicadores fueron la concentración y acumulación de sodio, potasio, calcio y magnesio (Na, K, Ca, Mg) en vástago, y la relación de acumulación entre cationes esenciales respecto a Na y la concentración de prolina. Las variedades evaluadas mostraron respuestas diferenciales, siendo más susceptible a NaCl la Mex 69-290, en función de que los contenidos de cationes esenciales se redujeron en mayor porcentaje y, por tanto, la relación de contenido entre éstos y el Na, además de que en esta variedad se observaron decrementos en la concentración de prolina a medida que la concentración de NaCl en la solución nutritiva se incrementó. La variedad CP 72-2086 mostró mayor tolerancia a NaCl al registrar capacidad de exclusión de Na en el vástago.

description: En la producción de caña de azúcar (Saccharum spp.), es importante diseñar políticas públicas del sistema producto que involucre implementar manejo alternativo de la fertilidad del suelo a través del uso de biofertilizantes, enmiendas orgánicas, fertilizantes químicos y buenas prácticas agrícolas. La quema y requema de los residuos de la cosecha es una práctica que afecta considerablemente la dinámica de la materia orgánica. El uso de biofertilizantes a base de bacterias fijadoras de nitrógeno, solubilizadoras de fósforo, promotoras de crecimiento y abonos orgánicos, son alternativas cuyos resultados en investigación han evidenciado efectos favorables para el rendimiento de caña y la conservación del suelo y ambiente.

description: Venturia effusa (syn. Fusicladium effusum), causal agent of pecan scab, is the most prevalent pathogen of pecan (Carya illinoinensis), causing severe yield losses in the southeastern United States. V. effusa is currently known only by its asexual (conidial) stage. However, the degree and distribution of genetic diversity observed within and among populations of V. effusa are typical of a sexually reproducing fungal pathogen, and comparable with other dothideomycetes with a known sexual stage, including the closely related apple scab pathogen, V. inaequalis. Using the mating type (MAT) idiomorphs from V. inaequalis, we identified a single MAT gene, MAT1-1-1, in a draft genome of V. effusa. The MAT1-1-1 locus is flanked by two conserved genes encoding a DNA lyase (APN2) and a hypothetical protein. The MAT locus spanning the flanking genes was amplified and sequenced from a subset of 14 isolates, of which 7 contained MAT1-1-1 and the remaining samples contained MAT1-2-1. A multiplex polymerase chain reaction screen was developed to amplify MAT1-1-1, MAT1-2-1, and a conserved reference gene encoding b-tubulin, and used to screen 784 monoconidial isolates of V. effusa collected from 11 populations of pecan across the southeastern United States. A hierarchical sampling protocol representing region, orchard, and tree allowed for analysis of MAT structure at different spatial scales. Analysis of this collection revealed the frequency of the MAT idiomorphs is in a 1:1 equilibrium of MAT1-1:MAT1-2. The apparent equilibrium of the MAT idiomorphs provides impetus for a renewed effort to search for the sexual stage of V. effusa.

description: Con el fin de mejorar el valor nutritivo de alimentos a base de residuos de la cosecha mecanizada de la caña de azúcar (RCMCA), se evaluaron cuatro niveles de hidróxido de calcio (Ca(OH)2) (0%, 3%, 6% y 9%) y cuatro tiempos de conservación (0, 20, 40 y 60 días) en un diseño completamente al azar con arreglo factorial. Se registró interacción en todas las variables estudiadas, resaltando que el pH fue mayor a medida que se incrementó el nivel de Ca(OH)2, independientemente de los días de conservación. La materia seca (MS) disminuyó conforme transcurrió el tiempo de conservación, indepen- dientemente de los niveles de Ca(OH)2. El contenido de proteína cruda (PC) en todos los tratamien- tos fue mayor de 10%. El contenido de FDN y FDA disminuyeron con la adición de Ca(OH)2 y los días de conservación estudiados. La degradación in situ de la materia seca (DIMS), de la fibra detergente neutro (DIFDN), de la fibra detergente acida (DIFDA), así como la tasa de degradación y fracción soluble, aumentaron con los niveles de Ca(OH)2), concluyendo que el contenido de PC en los RCMCA fue mayor a 10% en todos los tratamientos. La adición de hidróxido de calcio disminuye el contenido de FDN, FDA y mejora la degradación de la materia seca y componentes fibrosos de los RCMCA, además de aumentar el contenido de cenizas.

description: Drosophila lethal giant larvae (lgl) encodes a conserved tumor suppressor with established roles in cell polarity, asymmetric division, and proliferation control. Lgl's human orthologs, HUGL1 and HUGL2, are alteredinhuman cancers, however, its mechanistic role as a tumor suppressor remains poorly understood. Based on a previously established connection between Lgl and Fragile X protein (FMRP), a miRNA-associated translational regulator, we hypothesized that Lgl may exert its role as a tumor suppressor by interacting with the miRNA pathway. Consistent with this model, we found that lgl is a dominant modifier of Argonaute1 overexpression in the eye neuroepithelium. Using microarray profiling we identified a core set of ten miRNAs that are altered throughout tumorigenesis in Drosophila lgl mutants. Among these are several miRNAs previously linked to human cancers including miR-9a, which we found to be downregulated in lgl neuroepithelial tissues. To determine whether miR-9a can act as an effector of Lgl in vivo, we overexpressed it in the context of lgl knockdown by RNAi and found it able to reduce the overgrowth phenotype caused by Lgl loss in epithelia. Furthermore, cross-comparisons between miRNA and mRNA profiling in lgl mutant tissues and human breast cancer cells identified thrombospondin (tsp) as a common factor altered inboth fly and human breast cancer tumorigenesis models. Our work provides the first evidence of a functional connection between Lgl and the miRNA pathway, demonstratesthat miR-9a mediates Lgl's role in restricting epithelial proliferation, and provides novel insights into pathways controlled by Lgl during tumor progression.

description: The study assessed determinants of income generation among fish marketers in Anambra State, Nigeria. A structured questionnaire was used to collect data from a sample size of 120 respondents and were analyzed using mean score, frequency, percentage, regression model and enterprise budgeting. The finding indicated that 45.8% of the respondents fell between the age of 41 and 50 years, 60% were females while 37.5 of the respondents were married. The mean household size of the respondents was 7 persons while 47.5% of them had household size of between 1 and 5 persons. Majority (50%) of the respondents had secondary school education while the majority (41.2%) of the marketers had 31-40 years of marketing experience. More so, majority (54.2%) of the marketers financed their business with their isusu contribution. On the costs benefit analysis, the total revenue realized by the marketers was N6, 980, 200 while net return on investment was 2.4. The result of regression analysis indicates that out of 10 variables investigated, only four (4) variables were found to be statistically significant with respect to the factors influencing income generation among fish marketers in Anambra state. Those variables were; age (p<0.000), educational level ((p<0.002), marketing experience (p <0.009) and sex (p<0.005).The marketers identified inadequate credit loan (x=3.98), high cost of fish (x=3.72),poor marketing outlet (x=3.53),price fluctuation (x=3.43),transportation cost(x=2.83),limited access to resource(x=2.53),bad road network(x=2.32) and poor processing method (x=2.11) as the major constraints. In view of the findings, it was recommended that the government should grant agricultural incentives like short and long-term loans to the marketers in the study area.

description: In recent years, a lot of research has focused on improving the clinical skills of medical students and medical practitioners using standardized patients. Standardized patients (SP's) are used by the medical students and physicians in place of mannequins for a more realistic experience. SP's are real people trained to simulate specific illnesses and conditions to a high degree of accuracy which makes it difficult for the medical students to distinguish them from real patients. This research will enhance the capabilities of the standardized patients by providing a non-invasive, natural, harmless and realistic appearing tracking method for placing virtual pathologies using stethoscopes. This method of tracking the stethoscope head involves analyzing and processing the electrical activities of the heart which can be implemented in augmented stethoscopes for auscultation of normal and abnormal cardiac diseases. The electrocardiogram (EKG) signals are processed to obtain heart beat signals called QRS complexes that are then classified to determine the correct position on a SP's torso. This improves the capabilities of the augmented standardized patients in providing a realistic heart auscultation scenario to the medical students. Moreover it is cost effective and appropriately classifies the signal.

description: In practice, nutrition recommendations vary widely for inpatient and discharge management of acute, uncomplicated diverticulitis. This systematic review aims to review the evidence and develop recommendations for dietary fibre modifications, either alone or alongside probiotics or antibiotics, versus any comparator in adults in any setting with or recently recovered from acute, uncomplicated diverticulitis. Intervention and observational studies in any language were located using four databases until March 2017. The Cochrane Risk of Bias tool and GRADE were used to evaluate the overall quality of the evidence and to develop recommendations. Eight studies were included. There was “very low” quality evidence for comparing a liberalised and restricted fibre diet for inpatient management to improve hospital length of stay, recovery, gastrointestinal symptoms and reoccurrence. There was “very low” quality of evidence for using a high dietary fibre diet as opposed to a standard or low dietary fibre diet following resolution of an acute episode, to improve reoccurrence and gastrointestinal symptoms. The results of this systematic review and GRADE assessment conditionally recommend the use of liberalised diets as opposed to dietary restrictions for adults with acute, uncomplicated diverticulitis. It also strongly recommends a high dietary fibre diet aligning with dietary guidelines, with or without dietary fibre supplementation, after the acute episode has resolved.
EXPLORING SUSTAINABLE PATHWAYS FOR GHANA: A CLEWS-BASED SYSTEMS MODEL

description: Ghana, a West African country with a population of about 34 million, faces growing pressure on its energy, land, and water systems due to rising energy demand and greenhouse gas emissions. Around 95% of the country’s electricity is currently generated from fossil fuels and hydro. To explore sustainable pathways, this study applies the Climate-Land-Energy-Water (CLEWs) framework using the OSeMOSYS modelling tool. Two scenarios are analyzed: a reference scenario (business-as-usual) and a renewable energy target scenario that achieves 10% non-hydro renewable electricity by 2030. The results highlight trade-offs between emissions, land, and water use and show that targeted investments in solar PV, cross-sectoral planning, and grid upgrades are key to Ghana’s low-carbon future. This modeling exercise was developed during the EMP-Africa 2025 workshop.

When considering the different types of natural raw materials used to make fibers for textiles, sources like the cotton plant, flax plant, silk worm, merino sheep, and even wood pulp typically come to mind. However, nowadays new fibers are emerging

from unexpected raw materials as researchers and fiber manufacturers look for alternative “natural” fibers— and these new fibers bring unique, interesting, and powerful physical properties to the table as well as, sometimes, a more sustainable natural alternative to their synthetic counterparts.

The only question remaining is, where do these new natural fibers come from?

description: Broom snakeweed [Gutierrezia sarothrae (Pursh) Britton and Rusby] and threadleaf snakeweed [G. microcephala (DC.) A. Gray] are found on many rangelands in western North America. Snakeweeds are generally unpalatable; however, animals will graze them when other forage is not available and there are field reports that pregnant cows that graze snakeweeds may abort calves. Subsequent feeding studies using fresh cut snakeweed, ground and gavaged into pregnant cattle have failed to reproduce abortions, though it was evident that at high doses snakeweed quickly damaged the rumen microflora resulting in severe rumen atony, bloating and acidosis. We report here an attempt to solvent extract the snakeweeds, mix the extracts with ground alfalfa hay, and test the extracts for abortifacient activity in late-term pregnant cattle. The dosed extracts again appear to be unable to reproduce snakeweed induced abortions in cattle. Extracts from snakeweed chemotype 1 plant appear to be quite toxic to the rumen and caused complete rumen stasis after 2-3 days. In contrast, cattle receiving chemotype 2 extracts were able to tolerate over twice the dosage as that given for chemotype 1 extracts. We conclude that broom snakeweed plants are unlikely to be directly responsible for cattle abortions observed in cattle grazing snakeweed invested rangelands. It is more likely that cattle may be affected by rumen toxicity and/or might suffer from poor nutritional factors given the lack of quality forage that might be available on rangelands with high snakeweed infestation.

Correlations of caretaking and interactions with surrendered cats were calculated, to understand more about humans’ relationships with surrendered cats and the contribution of semi-owned cats to shelter intakes. A questionnaire was used to collect detailed information about 100 surrenderers’ relationships with cats they surrendered to four animal shelters in Australia, with each surrenderer classifying themselves as being either the owner or a non-owner of the surrendered cat (ownership perception). Method of acquisition of the cat, association time, closeness of the relationship with the cat and degree of responsibility for the cat’s care were all associated with ownership perception. Many non-owners (59%) fed and interacted with the cat they surrendered but rarely displayed other caretaking behaviours. However, most surrenderers of owned and unowned cats were attached to and felt responsible for the cat. Based on these results and other evidence, a causal model of ownership perception was proposed to provide a better understanding of factors influencing ownership perception. This model consisted of a set of variables proposed as directly or indirectly influencing ownership perception, with connecting arrows to indicate proposed causal relationships. Understanding ownership perception and the contribution of semi-owned cats to shelter intake is important as these can inform the development of more targeted and effective intervention strategies to reduce numbers of unwanted cats.

description: Function offloading is a promising solution to address limitations concerning computational capacity and available energy of Connected Automated Vehicles~(CAVs) or other autonomous robots by distributing computational tasks between local and remote computing devices in form of distributed services. This paper presents a generic function offloading framework that can be used to offload an arbitrary set of computational tasks with a focus on autonomous driving. To provide flexibility, the function offloading framework is designed to incorporate different offloading decision making algorithms and quality of service~(QoS) requirements that can be adjusted to different scenarios or the objectives of the CAVs. With a focus on the applicability, we propose an efficient location-based approach, where the decision whether tasks are processed locally or remotely depends on the location of the CAV. We apply the proposed framework on the use case of service-oriented trajectory planning, where we offload the trajectory planning task of CAVs to a Multi-Access Edge Computing~(MEC) server. The evaluation is conducted in both simulation and real-world application. It demonstrates the potential of the function offloading framework to guarantee the QoS for trajectory planning while improving the computational efficiency of the CAVs. Moreover, the simulation results also show the adaptability of the framework to diverse scenarios involving simultaneous offloading requests from multiple CAVs.

description: Alternatively spliced transcript isoforms are thought to play a critical role for functional diversity. However, the mechanism generating the enormous diversity of spliced transcript isoforms remains unknown, and its biological significance remains unclear. We analyzed transcriptomes in saker falcons, chickens, and mice to show that alternative splicing occurs more frequently, yielding more isoforms, in highly expressed genes. We focused on hemoglobin in the falcon, the most abundantly expressed genes in blood, finding that alternative splicing produces 10-fold more isoforms than expected from the number of splice junctions in the genome. These isoforms were produced mainly by alternative use of de novo splice sites generated by transcription-associated mutation (TAM), not by the RNA editing mechanism normally invoked. We found that high expression of globin genes increases mutation frequencies during transcription, especially on nontranscribed DNA strands. After DNA replication, transcribed strands inherit these somatic mutations, creating de novo splice sites, and generating multiple distinct isoforms in the cell clone. Bisulfate sequencing revealed that DNA methylation may counteract this process by suppressing TAM, suggesting DNA methylation can spatially regulate RNA complexity. RNA profiling showed that falcons living on the high Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau possess greater global gene expression levels and higher diversity of mean to high abundance isoforms (reads per kilobases per million mapped reads 18) than their low-altitude counterparts, and we speculate that this may enhance their oxygen transport capacity under low-oxygen environments. Thus, TAM-induced RNA diversity may be physiologically significant, providing an alternative strategy in lifestyle evolution.
