description: The aim of this work was to verify the beneficial potential of Silicon on the growth of potato genotypes in order to select potato genotypes that best respond to Si application. Four potato genotypes were used: SMIJ319-7, Dakota Rose, SMIF212-3 and SMINIA793101, grown in hydroponic system. The plants were transferred to nutrient solutions with four Si concentrations: 0; 0.5; 2.5; and 5.0 mM as NaSiO3. After seven days of exposure to treatments, leaf area, leaf number, shoot length, and fresh and dry weight of roots, stem and leaves were determined. The application of 0.5 mM Si promoted an increase in growth parameters of plants used in this work, mainly in leaf area, leaf number, and leaf and stem dry weight. However, the application of higher concentrations of Si (2.5 mM) promoted reduction in the growth parameters, mainly in leaf area. It was also possible to observe a genotypic variation with respect to Si, SMIJ319-7 and SMIF212-3 genotypes being the most responsive to Si. Therefore, the concentration of 0.5 mM Si is considered optimal for potentiating the growth of potato plants, and SMIJ319-7 and SMIF212-3 genotypes are the most responsive to Si.

description: We report on the first direct observation of fast spin-exchange coherent oscillations between different long-lived electronic orbitals of ultracold $^{173}$Yb fermions. We measure, in a model-independent way, the strength of the exchange interaction driving this coherent process. This observation allows us to retrieve important information on the inter-orbital collisional properties of $^{173}$Yb atoms and paves the way to novel quantum simulations of paradigmatic models of two-orbital quantum magnetism.
description: In this version of the preprint we have swapped the assignment of the eg+ and eg- states to the spectroscopic signals, thus correcting a wrong attribution in the previous version. As a consequence, the scattering lengths of the two states have been inverted. Hovewer, the main results of the paper remain unchanged. 5 pages (paper) + 3 pages (Supplemental Material)

description: The study was conducted to evaluate the physio-morphological variations of 21 pummelo genotype. The experiment was carried out at the existing plantation of Bangladesh Agricultural University Germplasm Centre, Mymensingh, during September 2014 to June 2015. Results showed that different genotype exhibited differently in their physio-morphological features. Genotype Thai Jambura exhibited highest leaf and petiole wing length (16.77 cm and 11.63 cm, respectively), while maximum number of anthers (44.33) were recorded in genotype Green skin. The heaviest and lightest fruits were recorded in genotype Hybrid (1283.33 g) and Accession-52 (300 g). While the maximum weight of non-edible portion (463.33 g), pulp to peel ratio (3.97), thickness of pulp (11.50 cm), amount of juice (366.67 ml), total soluble solids (TSS) (18.67%), number of seeds (114) and weight of seeds (58 g) were found in genotype Hybrid. Correlation coefficient study indicated that leaf length, breadth, petiole wing length, fruit weight, weight of non-edible portion, seed weight, seed number/fruit had positive and highly significant association with leaf breadth, petiole wing breadth, weight of non-edible portion, pulp thickness, total weight of seeds/fruit and number of fruits/plant, respectively. In respect of path analysis, leaf breadth, petiole wing length, fruit weight, average weight of seed, %TSS, seed number/fruit had positive direct effect on fruits/plant indicating its importance as a selection criteria

description: In this study, one foreign cultivar and forty-nine common bermudagrass accessions were collected from 18 provinces of Iran. Turfgrasses were grown at four temperature regimes (24/17, 7.5/0, -7.5/-12 and 15/-15°C day/night cycles) in a factorial experiment based on the completely randomized design with three replications. Physiological traits were evaluated to categorize all accessions as either cold sensitive or tolerant using Hierarchical Clustering with Ward’s method in SPSS software. Our results revealed that cold-tolerant common bermudagrass accessions showed higher proline, protein, antioxidant enzymes, color, visual quality and chlorophyll content and cold-sensitive accessions showed more severe cell membrane damage (EL) under cold stress conditions. Fall in temperature from 24°C severely decreased chlorophyll content, visual quality and color in all accessions. The highest antioxidant enzymes activity, chlorophyll content, color and visual quality at -7.5°C were observed in Taft, foreign cultivar, Naein, Malayear, Aligoudarz, Safashahr and Gorgan accessions. The increase in POD, SOD, CAT and APX activity observed in this study led to protection against oxidative damage caused due to high ROS levels. The most cold-tolerant accessions at -15°C were Taft, Naein and Malayear. Great variations in freezing tolerance were observed between Iranian accessions of common bermudagrass. Further molecular studies are needed to clarify better these findings.

description: The exchange of research data and physical specimens has become an issue of major importance for modern research. Many reports indicate problems with quality, trustworthiness and reproducibility of research results, mainly due to poor documentation of the data generation or the collection of specimens. The significant impact of flawed research results on health, economics and political decisions has frequently been stated. Consequently, professional societies and research initiatives call for improved and standardised documentation of the data and specimens used in research studies. Provenance information documents the evolution of an object and can be used to assess its quality and reliability. This deliverable defines components of distributed provenance information to enable interlinking of provenance information generated in different organisations involved in the research process, such as biobanks, research centres, universities or analytical laboratories. The distributed provenance information model builds on an existing provenance information standard, W3C PROV, and follows a general provenance composition pattern. Both W3C PROV and provenance composition pattern is described in this document. Since understanding of the term “provenance information” differs across different domains and research communities, this deliverable firstly harmonises this understanding by providing a general explanation of how provenance information is generated and used. In particular, this deliverable defines a connector, that is a provenance component containing technical information to traverse through provenance information. The connector is subsequently added to provenance information generated by different organisations. This deliverable also defines how to interpret identifiers of provenance structures in a distributed environment and how to include and interpret persistent identifiers of documented objects. This deliverable deals with the common provenance model developed as a part of a standardisation process in the International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) technical committee “Biotechnology” ISO/TC 276, and which is registered as project ISO 23494 in the working group 5 “Data processing and Integration”. Because this work is copyrighted by ISO and cannot be published as a public deliverable, this text describes the essential design of the provenance model, and the actual ISO document is provided as a non-public supplement. This is in line with the work plan of EOSC-Life WP6 in order to support adoption of the standard both in academia and in industry. The Common Provenance Model has been accepted as a Preliminary Work Item under 23494 Part 2 and it is being proposed for moving it into the next phase, the New Work Item at the time of submitting the deliverable.

description: A profound assumption in peculiar velocity cosmology is $b_v=1$ at sufficiently large scales, where $b_v$ is the volume weighted halo(galaxy) velocity bias with respect to the matter velocity field. However, this fundamental assumption has not been robustly verified in numerical simulations. Furthermore, it is challenged by structure formation theory (BBKS, 1986, ApJ; Desjacques and Sheth, 2010, PRD), which predicts the existence of velocity bias (at least for proto-halos) due to the fact that halos reside in special regions (local density peaks). The major obstacle to measure the volume weighted velocity from N-body simulations is an unphysical sampling artifact. It is entangled in the measured velocity statistics and becomes significant for sparse populations. With recently improved understanding of the sampling artifact (Zhang, Zheng and Jing, 2015, PRD; Zheng, Zhang and Jing, 2015, PRD), for the first time we are able to {\it appropriately correct this sampling artifact and then robustly measure the volume weighted halo velocity bias}. (1) We verify $b_v=1$ within $2\%$ model uncertainty at $k\lesssim 0.1h/$Mpc and $z=0$-$2$ for halos of mass $\sim 10^{12}$-$10^{13} h^{-1} M_\odot$, and, therefore, consolidates a foundation of the peculiar velocity cosmology. (2) We also find statistically significant signs of $b_v\neq 1$ at $k\gtrsim 0.1h/$Mpc. Unfortunately, whether this is real or caused by residual sampling artifact requires further investigation. Nevertheless, cosmology based on $k\gtrsim 0.1h/$Mpc velocity data shall be careful this potential velocity bias.

description: The diversity curriculum “We All Smile in the Same Language” was implemented at Camp Lesnaya Skazka in Mari El, Russia. The curriculum aimed to increase knowledge about diversity among campers ages 8 to 16. The evaluation is based on a review of the literature and analysis of a 20-question survey administered pre- and post-intervention. The evaluation sought to determine the impact of the curriculum on diversity awareness and self-esteem in campers ages 9 to 12. While the results were not statistically significant, the analysis contributes to improving the program and provides ideas for future design of international diversity education programs for children.

description: In a previous article, we proved that symplectic homeomorphisms preserving a coisotropic submanifold C, preserve its characteristic foliation as well. As a consequence, such symplectic homeomorphisms descend to the reduction of the coisotropic C. In this article we show that these reduced homeomorphisms continue to exhibit certain symplectic properties. In particular, in the specific setting where the symplectic manifold is a torus and the coisotropic is a standard subtorus, we prove that the reduced homeomorphism preserves spectral invariants and hence the spectral capacity. To prove our main result, we use Lagrangian Floer theory to construct a new class of spectral invariants which satisfy a non-standard triangle inequality.

description: The objective of this work was to evaluate lettuce growth in greenhouse under different types of substrates. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse, under randomized block design, with six treatments and three replicates. The compositions of the substrates were: T1= 100% organic compound; T2= 75% organic compound plus 25% substrate Plantmax®; T3= 50% organic compound plus 50% substrate Plantmax®; T4= 25% organic compound plus 75% substrate Plantmax®; T5= 100% substrate Plantmax®; T6= vermiculite. The number of leaves, dry mass, leaf area index, culture growth rate, relative growth rate, net assimilation rate, specific foliar area, foliar area ratio and foliar weight ratio were evaluated. Higher growth of lettuce plants are produced by mixture of organic compound and substrate Plantmax®. The isolated use of vermiculite does not give good results for the growth of lettuce plants, but is an alternative for mixing with other substrates.

description: We address the prediction of ductile damage and material anisotropy accumulated during plastic deformation of metals. A new model of phenomenological metal plasticity is proposed which is suitable for applications involving large deformations of workpiece material. The model takes combined nonlinear isotropic/kinematic hardening, strain-driven damage and rate-dependence of the stress response into account. Within this model, the work hardening and the damage evolution are fully coupled. The description of the kinematics is based on the double multiplicative decomposition of the deformation gradient proposed by Lion. An additional multiplicative decomposition is introduced in order to account for the damage-induced volume increase of the material. The model is formulated in a thermodynamically admissible manner. Within a simple example of the proposed framework, the material porosity is adopted as a rough measure of damage. A new simple void nucleation rule is formulated based on the consideration of various nucleation mechanisms. In particular, this rule is suitable for materials which exhibit a higher void nucleation rate under torsion than in case of tension. The material model is implemented into the FEM code Abaqus and a simulation of a deep drawing process is presented. The robustness of the algorithm and the performance of the formulation is demonstrated.

description: Indra’s Net is now one of the central doctrines of Western Buddhism and a recognisable metaphor portrayed by many writers today across a wide range of topics. However, Indra’s Net has not always had this authority or scope. In this thesis I conduct a genealogy of Indra’s Net, demonstrating that the metaphor that has seen global success in the contemporary period is actually a 20th century invention, rather than a traditional account of the metaphor. In this thesis, I track Indra’s Net’s increasing significance by first exploring how it is depicted in traditional sources. I then examine how five key writers contributed to the metaphor’s invention in the 20th Century. Through exploring the characterisations of Indra’s Net by Sir Charles Eliot, D.T. Suzuki, Alan Watts, Fritjof Capra and Francis Cook, I demonstrate how both the metaphor’s description and function altered in the modern period. From here, I show how the invented metaphor was made popular in Green Buddhist movements before then being spread globally. The metaphor has had an impact on the development of Western Buddhism more generally as it promoted a positive, interconnected, worldview. This is a view which Alan Sponberg discusses more generally and suggests has defined the way in which traditional and Western Buddhism differ from one another. I will show Indra’s Net’s characterisations were not only an indicator of this shift, but also an influential force. This resulted in Indra’s Net transforming from a marginal metaphor in older characterisations to a central doctrine of Western Buddhism. I demonstrate how the orientalist invention of the metaphor now dominates preconceptions of Indra’s Net’s overall history and becomes authenticated by scholars and practitioners alike. In the process of exploring how and why the metaphor has become so popular, I present Indra’s Net as a case study for the orientalist tropes that are prevalent in the 20th and 21st centuries. In particular how the homogenisation of Buddhism, a focus on interconnectedness, and the relationship between Buddhism and science have impacted the metaphor’s portrayals, but similarly how Indra’s Net has been influential in constructing these trends within Western Buddhism more generally as well. Overall, this genealogy reveals how a relatively minor idea, from a niche Buddhist school, has gone on to become one of the most central doctrines of Western Buddhism today.

description: Crude extract of the brown seaweed Laminaria digitata was tested as an alternative mean to control postharvest Rhizopus rot of strawberries. The antifungal activity of four extracts (one un-fractionated and three soluble by hexane, ethanol, and water) was in vitro measured against one pathogenic isolate of Rhizopus stolonifer at a concentration range from 10 g L-1 to 30 g L-1. The antifungal activity of the un-fractionated extract was in vivo measured into a climatic room at the same concentration range in comparison to fungicide Fenhexamid in preventive and curative treatments. The peroxidase activity in L. digitata-treated inoculated strawberries was performed. A significant inhibition of mycelia growth applying 30 g L-1 of un-fractionated extract (until 80% after 5 days) and suppression of sporangia germination (until 95% after 24 hours) were found by a dose-dependent manner of the treatment. Only the extracts fractionated by hexane and ethanol were likewise suppressive at the same concentrations against mycelia (until 71% and 66% respectively) and sporangia (until 82% and 69% respectively) such involving a direct toxicity induced by lipids and phenolic compounds to R. stolonifer suppression. Fruit decay inhibition of the R. stolonifer/strawberries pathosystem increased from 10 g L-1 to 30 g L-1 until 75% after 4 days only in preventive treatment. An increased peroxidase activity (4.84 ΔOD420 g-1 min-1) seen in fruit tissue after one-day from the application of 30 g -1 raw extract suggests that in vivo suppression could also be related to induced systemic resistance phenomena.

Year: 2022

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit geht der Frage nach, warum es sich lohnt, Gruppenbildungen und Verflechtungen zwischen Eliten und geistlichen Institutionen im Spätmittelalter zu verfolgen. Den Ausgangspunkt dieser Untersuchung bilden die Urkunden und die Verwaltungsüberlieferung des Doppelklosters Göttweig, einer der ältesten und traditionsreichsten geistlichen Institutionen Österreichs. In der Analyse werden Fragen nach den Personen, die mit dem Kloster über materiellen Besitz verbunden waren, nach den darüber konstituierten Beziehungen zu weiteren Personen, sowie zu den Relationen der Faktoren Besitz, Verwandtschaft, Ämtern und Geschlecht beantwortet. Die Arbeit demonstriert an einer Reihe von Fallbeispielen, wie Kombinationen dieser Faktoren Formen sozialer Beziehungen im spätmittelalterlichen Herzogtum Österreich strukturierten. Dabei wird gezeigt, wie die Verknüpfung von Besitz, (verwandtschaftlichen) Beziehungen und Ämtern Handlungsmöglichkeiten für Personen beiderlei Geschlechts schuf. Materieller Besitz in Form von Grundstücken, Immobilien und Bargeld bietet die Grundlage für sozialen Aufstieg von Personen. Erst über weitere soziale Verflechtungen in der Region sowie Ämter und Titel, werden aus Personen Eliten, die unter anderem in wichtigen Rollen im Umfeld von geistlichen Institutionen auftreten. Die Grundlage für die Ergebnisse bildet die quantitative und qualitative Auswertung von ca. 400 Göttweiger Urkunden zwischen 1401 bis 1450. 322 dieser Urkunden wurden als für die Forschungsfragen wichtige Basis identifiziert. Sie wurden anhand der Kategorien analysiert, die für die Projekte „Stadt und Gemeinschaft. Schenkungen und Stiftungen als Quellen sozialer Beziehungsgeflechte im spätmittelalterlichen Wien“ und „Soziale Netzwerke im spätmittelalterlichen Wien. Geschlecht, Verwandtschaft und Objektkultur“ unter der Leitung von Christina Lutter entwickelt wurden. Interpretationsgrundlage bildet einerseits die Forschungsliteratur zu den Themenfeldern der Stadtgeschichte, Verwandtschaft, Amt und Geschlecht und andererseits die aus den Projekten entstandenen Auswertungen und Fallstudien.

description: Tomato is a typical plant that has distinct response to different nitrogen forms in hydroponic culture. In addition, it is a well known susceptible plant to ammonium nutrition in hydroponic culture. However, its response to foliar application of nitrogen sources and N-forms has not been well investigated. In the present study, the growth, productivity and fruit quality of tomato was investigated under foliar application of nitrogen from different sources. Ammonium sulfate, urea and calcium nitrate with constant concentration of 100 mM N were weekly sprayed during four months under hydroponic culture system. A water spray treatment was considered as control. The results showed that vegetative growth parameters were significantly affected by N sources in different patterns. The factors such as plant height, leaf area, number of lateral shoots and shoot fresh and dry weight, as well as leaf nitrate reductase activity was significantly reduced by foliar application of ammonium sulfate and to less extent by urea, while there was improvement of these traits by foliar application of calcium nitrate compared to control. However, ammonium sulfate treated plants had the highest leaf SPAD value and leaf N concentrations. Plant fruiting pattern was also influenced by treatments, as ammonium sulfate spray reduced the fruit yield, and fruit vitamin C content, while it increased fruit TSS and titratable acidity. The highest value of yield and vitamin C was recorded in calcium nitrate sprayed plants.

description: Recent research looks increasingly at languages with more than one system of nominal classification and first systematic typological assessments of so-called “concurrent noun classification” exist with a focus on cases involving classifiers and gender. We elaborate on this work by dealing with Niger-Congo languages that have restructured their inherited noun classification in a particular way. The inherited system entailing a strong parallelism between agreement-based gender and affix-based noun inflections shifted toward one where the gender system is reduced to an animacy-based opposition while nominal inflection maintains a considerable amount of original complexity with semantic criteria beyond those of the innovative gender distinction. While the phenomenon as such is not a new discovery, its typological relevance has gone unrecognized so far. We argue that such cases of restructured gender systems in Niger-Congo prima facie suggest themselves as candidates for a new type of concurrent noun classification, both from a synchronic and diachronic perspective. We present a detailed description of the phenomenon in the Guang language Gonja and determine whether or how it can be integrated in the available typology. We also survey its wider distribution and discuss some recurrent historical aspects of its emergence in the family.

description: We present a robust measurement and analysis of the rest-frame ultraviolet (UV) luminosity function at z=4-8. We use deep Hubble Space Telescope imaging over the CANDELS/GOODS fields, the Hubble Ultra Deep Field and the Year 1 Hubble Frontier Field deep parallel observations. These surveys provides an effective volume of 0.6-1.2 x 10^6 Mpc^3 over this epoch, allowing us to perform a robust search for faint (M_UV=-18) and bright (M_UV < -21) galaxies. We select candidate galaxies using a well-tested photometric redshift technique with careful screening of contaminants, finding a sample of 7446 galaxies at 3.51000 galaxies at z~6-8. We measure the luminosity function using a Markov Chain Monte Carlo analysis to measure robust uncertainties. At the faint end our results agree with previous studies, yet we find a higher abundance of UV-bright galaxies at z>6, with M* ~ -21 at z>5, different than that inferred based on previous trends at lower redshift. At z=8, a single power-law provides an equally good fit to the UV luminosity function, while at z=6 and 7, an exponential cutoff at the bright-end is moderately preferred. We compare to semi-analytical models, and find that the lack of evolution in M* is consistent with models where the impact of dust attenuation on the bright-end of the luminosity function decreases at higher redshift. We measure the evolution of the cosmic star-formation rate density, correcting for dust attenuation, and find that it declines as (1+z)^(-4.3 +/- 0.5) at z>4, consistent with observations at z>9. Our observations are consistent with a reionization history that starts at z>10, completes at z>6, and reaches a midpoint (x_HII = 0.5) at 6.7

description: We study the space of generalized translation invariant valuations on a finite-dimensional vector space and construct a partial convolution which extends the convolution of smooth translation invariant valuations. Our main theorem is that McMullen's polytope algebra is a subalgebra of the (partial) convolution algebra of generalized translation invariant valuations. More precisely, we show that the polytope algebra embeds injectively into the space of generalized translation invariant valuations and that for polytopes in general position, the convolution is defined and corresponds to the product in the polytope algebra.

description: The effectiveness of poultry manure application time was studied on pistachios (Pistacia vera L.) trees. The experiment consisted of seven different poultry manure application time, including poultry manure application as one time in 1) last week of October 2) last week of December 3) last week of January 4) mid-March and dividing into two parts and use in fall or in winter, dividing into four parts and use in dormant seasons (fall and winter). Based on the results, there were significant differences among treatments. The highest number of fruit per cluster (27.4) was found in poultry manure applied in last week of October. The highest nut splitting percent (84.3%) and the lowest nut blanking percent (8.6%) were obtained in poultry manure applied by dividing into four parts. Half kernel nuts followed a similar trend with blanking percent. Weight of 1000 nuts increased and responded positively and number of pistachios nut per ounce decreased by manure application when divided into two parts and used in the winter. Application of poultry manure in the mid-March enhanced the nut protein (19.63%).

description: In this work we performed a numerical study of an epidemic model that mimics the endemic state of whooping cough in the pre-vaccine era. We considered a stochastic SIR model on dynamical networks that involve local and global contacts among individuals and analyzed the influence of the network properties on the characterization of the quasi-stationary state. We computed probability density functions (PDF) for infected fraction of individuals and found that they are well fitted by gamma functions, excepted the tails of the distributions that are q-exponentials. We also computed the fluctuation power spectra of infective time series for different networks. We found that network effects can be partially absorbed by rescaling the rate of infective contacts of the model. An explicit relation between the effective transmission rate of the disease and the correlation of susceptible individuals with their infective nearest neighbours was obtained. This relation quantifies the known screening of infective individuals observed in these networks. We finally discuss the goodness and limitations of the SIR model with homogeneous mixing and parameters taken from epidemiological data to describe the dynamic behaviour observed in the networks studied.

description: In this study the influence of soil and soilless growing systems (substrate 3:1 v/v perlite:peat) on quality and microbial traits of three multi-leaf lettuce cultivars (two green, ‘Eztoril’ and ‘Ezabel’, and one red, ‘Ezra’) was evaluated at harvest and after 7 and 13 days of storage at 8°C. At harvest, ‘Ezra’ showed a respiration activity and a total phenol content respectively 2-fold and 25% significantly higher than the green cultivars. Soil lettuces resulted more stressed than those grown in soilless, as indicated by their initial content in antioxidants. As for nitrate content, soilless grown lettuces at harvest showed an average concentration higher than soil-grown ones, although values are generally lower than limits imposed by the EU Regulation (No. 1258/2011). During storage, soilless lettuces showed no ammonium accumulation, differently from those cultivated in soil. In addition, lettuce cultivars grown in soilless condition showed unchanged content in the antioxidant activity and total phenols, and lower microbial counts than soil lettuces. Results of the present study showed that soilless growing system can positively affect qualitative and microbiological parameter of lettuces studied, and it can be considered a good soilless growing technique in order to obtain high quality multi-leaf lettuces for ready-to-use industry.

description: Pre cooling is applied to remove the field heat of harvested horticultural produces. The goal of this work was to determine the cooling curve and the effects of hydro cooling on quality and shelf life of iceberg lettuce ‘Lucy Brown’ stored at 5°C and 22°C. Through shelf life, it was determined the changes on accumulated fresh weight loss, leaf relative water content and total chlorophyll, total soluble sugars, reducing and non-reducing sugars, and starch. The field heat from iceberg lettuce heads was removed within the first 10 min when submerged into cooled water at 4°C. Hydro cooled lettuce heads accumulated water over the leaf surfaces resulting in higher rate of fresh weight loss during storage when compared to control. Lettuce stored at 5°C kept higher relative water content in the leaves throughout the shelf life. Hydro cooling treatment delayed the wilting of the external leaves in three and two days when stored at 5 and 22°C, respectively. Hydro cooling did not influence the decrease on total soluble sugars, reducing sugars, non-reducing sugars and starch throughout shelf life, but affected the leaf chlorophyll content. Independent of the temperature in which the ‘Lucy Brown’ iceberg lettuce will be stored, hydro cooling is recommended to prolong quality and shelf life.
