description: 5-Lipoxygenase (5-LO) is one of the key enzymes involved in the production of pro-inflammatory mediators, such as leukotriene B4 and cysteinyl leukotrienes. Inhibition of 5-LO is a promising therapeutic strategy against inflammation. Chalcones and flavones are known to have a broad spectrum of biological activities which include anti-inflammation, anti-fungal, anti-cancer, and anti-oxidant properties. In this work, computational approaches were used to screen chalcone and flavone derivatives for their potential as inhibitors of 5-LO. The scaffolds for chalcone and flavones were designed and used to select only chalcone and flavone compounds from the ASINEX database. Prior to docking, chalcone and flavone derivatives were filtered using Lipinski’s rule of five (ro5). The top-ranked hits from GLIDE were re-docked using GOLD software to validate the binding mode of the compounds which were screened. Six compounds were selected for further analysis for ADME properties, followed by molecular dynamic (MD) simulations in order to investigate binding interactions. Compound 6 (BAS00795786) had the highest potential as an inhibitor of 5-LO among the selected compounds.

description: This paper empirically discriminates between alternative household decision-making models for estimating parents’ willingness to pay for health risk reductions for their children as well as for themselves. Models are tested using data pertaining to heart disease from a stated preference survey involving 432 matched pairs of parents married to one another. Analysis is based on a collective model of parental resource allocation that incorporates household production of perceived health risks and allows for differences in preferences and risk perceptions between parents. Results are consistent with Pareto efficiency within the household, which implies that (1) for a given proportionate reduction in health risk, parents are willing to pay the same amount of money at the margin to protect themselves and the child; and (2) parents’ choices about proportionate health risk reductions for their children are based on household valuations, rather than their own individual valuations. Results also suggest that the marginal willingness to pay of mothers and fathers for health risk protection is sensitive to a shift in intra-household decision-making power between parents.

description: Numerous nonmarket valuation studies have examined the impacts of environmental commodities on house prices, but little attention has been given to how shifts in these commodities affect the occurrence of home transactions, and the resulting welfare implications. Using a novel theoretical framework and an empirical analysis of homes impacted by petroleum releases from underground storage tanks, this paper demonstrates that changes in environmental quality can significantly impact a household’s decision to sell their home, and that this change in behavior has important implications towards theoretical welfare measures and empirical estimates. A discrete time duration model is estimated using a panel of single-family homes from 2000 to 2007. The dependent variable is the annual occurrence of a sale at each individual home. I find that contamination and cleanup activities in close proximity significantly impact the probability that a home is sold. Most striking is that this probability is reduced by about 50% during ongoing cleanup. This finding is most pronounced among lower quality homes and where an exposure pathway is present.

description: As one of the most interesting Seyfert 1 galaxies, PG 2130+099 has been the target of several reverberation mapping (RM) campaigns over the years. However, its measured broad H$β$ line responses have been inconsistent, with time lags of $\sim$200 days, $\sim$25 days, and $\sim$10 days being reported for different epochs while its optical luminosity changed no more than 40%. To investigate this issue, we conducted a new RM-campaign with homogenous and high cadence (about $\sim$3 days) for two years during 2017--2019 to measure the kinematics and structure of the ionized gas. We successfully detected time lags of broad H$β$, He II, He I, and Fe II lines with respect to the varying 5100Åcontinuum, revealing a stratified structure that is likely virialized with Keplerian kinematics in the first year of observations, but an inflow kinematics of the broad-line region from the second year. With a central black hole mass of $0.97_{-0.18}^{+0.15}\times 10^7~M_{\odot}$, PG 2130+099 has an accretion rate of $10^{2.1\pm0.5}L_{\rm Edd}c^{-2}$, where $L_{\rm Edd}$ is the Eddington luminosity and $c$ is speed of light, implying that it is a super-Eddington accretor and likely possesses a slim, rather than thin, accretion disk. The fast changes of the ionization structures of the three broad lines remain puzzling.

description: Economic theory suggests that profit maximizing firms should have an incentive to incorporate technologies into their products that are cost-effective, absent consideration of externalities. Even in the presence of uncertainty and imperfect information – conditions that hold to some degree in every market – firms are expected to make decisions that are in the best interest of the company owners and/or shareholders. However, simple net present value calculations comparing upfront costs of fuel-saving technologies to future savings suggest this is not always the case. This puzzle has been observed in a variety of contexts and is commonly referred to as the “energy efficiency paradox.” A growing number of empirical studies in the peer-reviewed literature examine why households may under-invest in energy efficiency. To our knowledge, far fewer studies examine whether similar undervaluation occurs on the part of businesses. While a variety of hypotheses could explain this behavior, lack of empirical evidence on why businesses do not always invest in seemingly cost-effective energy saving technologies limits our ability to judge whether and when a given hypothesis is likely to be valid. In this paper, we explore capital investment decisions within the heavy duty trucking sector for fuel-saving technologies. Given the lack of readily available data sources to study this industry, we collect information via a combination of focus groups and interviews. While the sample is not representative, we gain insight into what factors might explain apparent underinvestment in emission reducing technologies absent government regulation.

description: The effect of regulation on employment is of particular interest to policy-makers in times of high sustained unemployment. In this paper we use a panel data set of fossil fuel fired power plants to examine the impact of Phase I of the SO2 trading program created by Title IV of the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAA) on employment in the electric utility sector and a two-stage estimation technique that pairs propensity score matching with a difference-in differences estimator. Overall, we find little evidence that power plants subject to Phase I of the SO2 trading program had significant decreases in employment during Phase I of the program relative to non-Phase I power plants. We also find that accounting for utility-level fixed effects is important when examining how electric utilities chose to comply. For instance, when using plant-level fixed effects we find significant negative employment effects for power plants that chose to comply by switching to low sulfur coal. However, utilities took advantage of the flexibility offered under the trading program by switching to low sulfur coal at a subset of the power plants they owned to generate excess allowances to meet compliance needs at other power plants. When we include utility-level fixed effects in this case, we find that the negative employment effect is no longer statistically significant, offering some evidence that utilities used the flexibility of the regulations to minimize the overall impact on employment. When we control for a more traditional NOX rate-based standard that partially overlaps with Phase I of the SO2 trading program, we find that employment effects associated with the SO2 program continue to be insignificant.

The Role of Scenario Uncertainty in Estimating the Benefits of Carbon Mitigation

description: The benefits of carbon mitigation are subject to numerous sources of uncertainty and accounting for this uncertainty in policy analysis is crucial. One often overlooked source uncertainty are the forecasts of future baseline conditions (e.g., population, economic output, emissions) from which carbon mitigation benefits are assessed. Through, in some cases highly non-linear relationships, these baseline conditions determine the forecast level and rate of climate change, exposed populations, vulnerability, and way in which inter-temporal tradeoffs are valued. We study the impact of explicitly considering this uncertainty on a widely used metric to asses the benefits of carbon dioxide mitigation, the social cost of carbon (SCC). To explore this question a detailed integrated assessment that couples economic and climate systems to assess the damages of climate change is driven by a library of consistent probabilistic socioeconomic-emission scenarios developed using a comprehensive global computable general equilibrium model. We find that scenario uncertainty has a significant effect on estimates of the SCC and that excluding this source of uncertainty could lead to an underestimate of the mitigation benefits. A detailed decomposition finds that this effect is driven primarily through the role that uncertainty regarding future consumption per capita growth has on the value of inter-temporal tradeoffs through the consumption discount rate.

title: Mechanisms of resistance to Fusarium ear blight in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.).
Creators: name: Hilton, Alexander James
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1999

description: The addition of anthers from five cultivars of winter wheat to 10μl of a conidial suspension of F. culmorum significantly increased conidial germination, germ-tube branching and growth compared with a water control. Although anthers from the cultivars Beaver and Mercia caused significantly more branching of germ tubes of F. culmorum than Hussar and Riband, there were no differences between cultivars in % germination and total germ-tube length. The role of anthers in the resistance of wheat cultivars to initial infection by F. culmorum is discussed.

 Resistance to spread of infection was examined by measuring the % of necrotic spikelets after a single spikelet in the middle of the ear was inoculated with either F. culmorum or F. graminearum. Significant differences between cultivars were observed in % necrotic spikelets below the point of inoculation 4 weeks after inoculation with F. culmorum. Premature bleaching (scalding) occurred in the top half of ears above the point of inoculation and was associated with cultivars showing high levels of necrosis. The levels of necrosis and scalding in these cultivars could not be related to severity of Fusarium Ear Blight (FEB) observed in the field and reasons for this have been discussed.

 Field studies revealed that cultivar morphology including total straw height and compactness of ear could also significantly affect the severity of FEB. In 1995/96 field trials artificially inoculated with a mixture of Fusarium spp and Microdochium nivale, (concentration 2.5 X 105 ml-1 of water) showed that short strawed cultivars with lax ears had more symptoms of FEB than taller strawed cultivars with dense ears. Among random F3 populations derived from cultivars of varying height there was a clear tendency for tall strawed lines to show less disease symptoms than shorter lines following inoculation suggesting that the relationship between straw height and disease severity had a genetic basis. Monitoring relative humidity at ear height in a short and tall isogenic line of Maris Huntsman revealed no significant differences between these genotypes from GS 65 to GS 85, suggesting that microclimate cannot explain differences in severity between tall and short lines. The implications of these results are discussed in terms of breeding cultivars resistant to FEB of any height and with suitable ear characteristics.

 Symptoms of FEB seen on different cultivars of wheat in the field are, therefore, not only due to differences to initial infection in the anthers and spread of necrosis within the ear but also differences in scalding. It has also been shown that a number of morphological characters, including cultivar height, significantly affect severity of FEB.

description: ORYZA2000: modeling lowland rice is the next in a series of (lowland) rice growth simulation models developed by IRRI and Wageningen University and Research Centre (WUR) in the early to mid-1990s in the project "Simulation and Systems Analysis for Rice Production (SARP)." It is an update and integration of the models ORYZA1 for potential production, ORYZA_W for water-limited situations, and ORYZA-N for nitrogen-limited production. Since the release of these models, new insights into crop growth and water-balance processes have been gained, new scientific subroutines developed, and programming standards and tools improved. These developments warranted a new release in the ORYZA series. Besides the scientific and programming updates, ORYZA2000 contains new features that allow a more explicit simulation of crop management options, such as irrigation and nitrogen fertilizer management. It can also be used in application-oriented research such as the design of crop ideotypes and the analysis of yield gaps to the optimization of crop management, the ex ante analysis of the effects of climate change on crop growth, and agroecological zonation.

description: A torus manifold is an even-dimensional manifold acted on by a half-dimensional torus with non-empty fixed point set and some additional orientation data. It may be considered as a far-reaching generalisation of toric manifolds from algebraic geometry. The orbit space of a torus manifold has a rich combinatorial structure, e.g., it is a manifold with corners provided that the action is locally standard. Here we investigate relationships between the cohomological properties of torus manifolds and the combinatorics of their orbit quotients. We show that the cohomology ring of a torus manifold is generated by two-dimensional classes if and only if the quotient is a homology polytope. In this case we retrieve the familiar picture from toric geometry: the equivariant cohomology is the face ring of the nerve simplicial complex and the ordinary cohomology is obtained by factoring out certain linear forms. In a more general situation, we show that the odd-degree cohomology of a torus manifold vanishes if and only if the orbit space is face-acyclic. Although the cohomology is no longer generated in degree two under these circumstances, the equivariant cohomology is still isomorphic to the face ring of an appropriate simplicial poset.

description: This article seeks to test empirically to what extent localist behavior by legislators is influenced by electoral vulnerability in Chile, following a recent electoral reform. Our results show that such a relationship exists in the case of non-legislative speeches delivered in the Chamber of Deputies, but not in the case of personal meetings held by parliamentarians with constituents. Furthermore, we found that the relationship between electoral vulnerability and a focus on local issues depends on district magnitude. By examining pre- and post-reform periods, after district magnitude was increased while preserving proportional rules, we also show that incentives to cultivate personal votes are more nuanced under the reformed system.

description: The International Rice Research Institute (Lao-IRRI Project) and the Lao National Rice Research Program have been collaborating on rice research since 1991. Soil fertility research has been conducted in all provinces of Laos through this effort. The objective of this book is to review the research that has been conducted on nutrient management of lowland rice in Laos from 1991 to 2000 and to present an integrated and sustainable nutrient management approach that is relevant to Lao farmers. We focus on the rainfed lowland rice system as opposed to the irrigated rice system, although references will be made to both. In the first section, an overview of lowland rice trends and practices in Laos will be given This will be followed by a discussion of the production environment, with emphasis on climate and soils. This will be followed by a presentation of research aimed at identifying nutrient deficiencies and nutrient management strategies to overcome these deficiencies. Finally, the last section provides an overall summary and recommendation for different soils. In the appendixes at the end, we have provided (1) a list of Lao-IRRI publications relating to rainfed lowland rice, which are available from IRRI, and (2) a list of soil fertility experiments that have been conducted from 1991 to 2000. It is from these experiments that the results of this book have been derived.

To that purpose, we generalize the notion of p-orthogonality to the class of multi-indexed families of operators. This kind of families appear naturally in certain non-commutative Khintchine type inequalities associated with free groups. Other p-orthogonal families are given by the homogeneous operator-valued polynomials in the Rademacher variables or the multi-indexed martingale difference sequences. As in Pisier's result, our tools are mainly combinatorial.

description: Raman et al. have found experimental evidence for a critical velocity under which there is no dissipation when a detuned laser beam is moved in a Bose-Einstein condensate. We analyze the origin of this critical velocity in the low density region close to the boundary layer of the cloud. In the frame of the laser beam, we do a blow up on this low density region which can be described by a Painlevé equation and write the approximate equation satisfied by the wave function in this region. We find that there is always a drag around the laser beam. Though the beam passes through the surface of the cloud and the sound velocity is small in the Painlevé boundary layer, the shedding of vortices starts only when a threshold velocity is reached. This critical velocity is lower than the critical velocity computed for the corresponding 2D problem at the center of the cloud. At low velocity, there is a stationary solution without vortex and the drag is small. At the onset of vortex shedding, that is above the critical velocity, there is a drastic increase in drag.

Finally, we show that given finitely many admissible pairs, almost all random convolutions are spectral measures. Moreover, we give a complete characterization of spectrality of random convolutions in some special cases.

description: IRRI's involvement with national agricultural research and extension systems (NARES) varied, depending on the country's specific needs and level of development. For the last 16 years, IRRI has been proud of its fruitful partnership with Bhutan, which has led to the development of a funtional research and development system in Bhutan. Our collaborative partnership is an excellent example of building a small but effective research system. Bhutan is now widely considered to be a model research system for a small country. It is worth documenting the history and the many achievements associated with the development of the Bhutan national program. Others can appreciate what has been achieved through partnership with the other stakeholders, particularly the main donors, the International Development Research Centre, and lately, the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation. Through effective collaboration, a strong foundation has been laid for developing a national research program on rice, oilseeds, wheat, and vegetables. In addition, a small farm research station (CARD - Wangduephodrang) has been transformed into an effective national agricultural research center that serves not only the wetland production system but also the national research and development program for field crops. Project efforts have contributed positively to enhancing research-extension linkages and have generated farm-level impact through the adoption of new varieties and production technologies in many parts of the country.

description: Die Ressource „Wasser“ als Konsumgut, Produktionsfaktor und Umweltmedium ist aus volkswirtschaftlicher Sicht der mengenmäßig bedeutendste Stofffluß durch das sozioökonomische System Österreichs. Die volkswirtschaftlichen Produktionskosten der öffentlichen Wasserver- und Abwasserentsorgung betragen inkl. kalkulatorischer Verzinsung rund 48 bis 62 S/m3 kommunaler Wasserentnahme. Diesen Kosten stehen Gebühren als Einnahmen der Gemeinden in Höhe von rund 30 S/m3 gegenüber. 1991 gaben die österreichischen Gemeinden (ohne Wien) rund 15 Mrd. S für Wasserver- und Abwasserentsorgung aus (dies entspricht 14 % der Gesamtausgaben der Gemeinden ohne Wien). Wien gab rund 3,4 Mrd. S aus (knapp über 4 % an den Gesamtausgaben Wiens). Die Bedeutung einer funktionierenden Wasserwirtschaft spiegelt sich in den Ausgaben der Gemeinden und der Industrie, welche 1994 rund 6 Mrd. S für Wasserreinhaltung ausgaben (d. s. 4,4 % der gesamten Industrieinvestitionen), wider, die nicht nur zur Wasserreinhaltung dienen, sondern auch bedeutende volkswirtschaftliche Nutzeffekte, z.B. in Form von Wertschöpfungs-, Beschäftigungs und Steueraufkommenseffekten, nach sich ziehen. Ein Überblick über bereits durchgeführte Untersuchungen zum Erholungs- und Freizeitwert bzw. Existenzwert ökologischer Systeme zeigt, daß gegenüber sauberem Wasser und seinen ökologischen Funktionen eine hohe Wertschätzung besteht.

description: We demonstrate quantum interference for tetraphenylporphyrin, the first biomolecule exhibiting wave nature, and for the fluorofullerene C60F48 using a near-field Talbot-Lau interferometer. For the porphyrins, which are distinguished by their low symmetry and their abundant occurence in organic systems, we find the theoretically expected maximal interference contrast and its expected dependence on the de Broglie wavelength. For C60F48 the observed fringe visibility is below the expected value, but the high contrast still provides good evidence for the quantum character of the observed fringe pattern. The fluorofullerenes therefore set the new mark in complexity and mass (1632 amu) for de Broglie wave experiments, exceeding the previous mass record by a factor of two.

description: Effect of magnetic field on electron spin relaxation in quantum wells is studied theoretically. We have shown that Larmor effect and cyclotron motion of carriers can either jointly suppress D'yakonov-Perel' spin relaxation or compensate each other. The spin relaxation rates tensor is derived for any given direction of the external field and arbitrary ratio of bulk and structural contributions to spin splitting. Our results are applied to the experiments on electron spin resonance in SiGe heterostructures, and enable us to extract spin splitting value for such quantum wells.

description: The polarized images of a synchrotron emitting ring are studied in the spacetime of a rotating black hole in the Scalar-Tensor-Vector-Gravity (STVG) theory. The black hole owns an additional dimensionless MOG parameter described its deviation from Kerr black hole. The effects of the MOG parameter on the observed polarization vector and Strokes $Q-U$ loops depend heavily on the spin parameter, the magnetic field configuration, the fluid velocity and the observation inclination angle. For the fixed MOG parameter, the changes of the polarization vector in the image plane are similar to those in the Kerr black hole case. The comparison of the polarization images between Kerr-MOG black hole and M87* implies that there remains some possibility for the STVG-MOG theory.

description: We have carried out an intensive study of photometric (Kepler Mission) and spectroscopic data on the system Kepler-2 (HAT-P-7A) using the dedicated software WinFitter. The mean individual data-point error of the normalized flux values for this system is 0.00015, leading to the model's specification for the mean reference flux to an accuracy of $\sim$0.5 ppm. This testifies to the remarkably high accuracy of the binned data-set, derived from over 1.8 million individual observations. Spectroscopic data are reported with the similarly high-accuracy radial velocity amplitude measure of $\sim$2 m s$^{-1}$. The analysis includes discussion of the fitting quality and model adequacy. Our derived absolute parameters for Kepler-2 are as follows: $M_p$ (Jupiter) 1.80 $\pm$ 0.13; $R_{\star}$ 1.46 $\pm 0.08 \times 10^6$ km; $R_p$ 1.15 $\pm 0.07 \times 10^5$ km. These values imply somewhat larger and less condensed bodies than previously catalogued, but within reasonable error estimates of such literature parameters. We find also tidal, reflection and Doppler effect parameters, showing that the optimal model specification differs slightly from a `cleaned' model that reduces the standard deviation of the $\sim$3600 binned light curve points to less than 0.9 ppm. We consider these slight differences, making comparisons with the hot-jupiter systems Kepler-1 (TrES-2) and 13.

Dark Energy Black Holes with Intermediate Masses at High Redshifts: an earlier generation of Quasars and observations

description: Dark Energy is the largest fraction of the energy density of our Universe - yet it remains one of the enduring enigmas of our times. Here we show that Dark Energy can be used to solve 2 tantalizing mysteries of the observable universe. We build on existing models of Dark Energy linked to neutrino masses. In these models Dark Energy can undergo Phase Transitions and form Black Holes. Here we look at the implications of the family structure of neutrinos for the phase transitions in dark energy and associated peaks in black hole formation. It has been previously shown that one of these peaks in Black Hole formation is associated with the observed peak in Quasar formation. Here, we predict that there will also be an earlier peak in the Dark Energy Black Holes at high redshifts. These Dark Energy Black Holes formed at high redshifts are Intermediate Mass Black Holes (IMBHs).These Dark Energy Black Holes at large redshift can help explain both the EDGES observations and the observations of large Supermassive Black Holes (SMBHs) at redshifts $z \sim 7$. The existence of an earlier phase of Dark Energy Black Holes take care of some current challenges to theory implied by existing astronomical data and also helps us look for these Dark Energy Black Holes at high redshifts as predicted here through targeted searches for these Black Holes at the redshifts $z \sim 18$. There is a slight dependence of the location of the peak on the lightest neutrino mass - so the peak may be located at a slightly lower value of the redshift. This may actually enable a measurement of the lightest neutrino mass. Finding these Dark Energy Black Holes of Intermediate Mass should be within the reach of upcoming observations - particularly with the James Webb Space Telescope - but perhaps also through the use of other innovative techniques focusing specifically on the redshifts around $z \sim 18$.

description: This is the proceedings of a symposium held in Yunnan, China. The book's chapters are grouped into four sections — habitat diversity, microbial diversity, genetic diversity, and technology diffusion — corresponding to the four main topics of the symposium. It also features chapters from several internationally known experts who were invited to share their insights on certain topics. The implementable outputs reported in this proceedings vary in stages of development. The most advanced, which can be considered a mature technology, is genetic diversification by interplanting susceptible glutinous varieties with resistant hybrid indica rice to control rice blast. This has passed the transition from experimental plots to widespread farmers' practice. Microbial diversity, on the other hand, illustrates the complexity of how biodiversity operates in pest management; habitat diversity section describes how certain mixes of a rice and non-rice habitat favor the proliferation of beneficial insects that can control the population of insect pests; and technology diffusion complete the from-concept-to-practice story of applying biodiversity in pest management.

description: Light-field cameras are becoming more popular in the consumer market. Their data redundancy allows, in theory, to accurately refocus images after acquisition and to predict the depth of each point visible from the camera. Combined, these two features allow for the generation of full-focus images, which is impossible in traditional cameras. Multiple methods for depth prediction from light fields (or stereo) have been proposed over the years. A large subset of these methods relies on cost-volume estimates - 3D objects where each layer represents a heuristic of whether each point in the image is at a certain distance from the camera. Generally, this volume is used to regress a depth map, which is then refined for better results. In this paper, we argue that refining the cost volumes is superior to refining the depth maps in order to further increase the accuracy of depth predictions. We propose a set of cost-volume refinement algorithms and show their effectiveness.
