Silencing Glycine Decarboxylase Complex P-protein in Rice Mesophyll Cells using artificial microRNA
Creators: name: Balahadia, Christian Paolo
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2017
Subjects: GDCP, glycine decarboxylase, photorespiration, C2 cycle

description: Photorespiration or C2 cycle is the process of neutralizing the toxic metabolite byproducts of RuBP oxygenation by Rubisco. Rice is a C3 plant that lose yield from the release of CO2 by the glycine decarboxylase complex (GDC) and expenditure of energy due to photorespiration. Examination of extant C3-C4 intermediates species has shown that GDC P-protein (GDCP) expression evolved to exclusively express in the bundle sheath cells and no longer in the mesophyll cells. This formed the CO2 concentrating mechanism called C2 photosynthesis which minimized photorespiration. This study was able to knockdown the expression of GDCP in the mesophyll cells using artificial microRNA driven by maize PEP carboxylase promoter. GDCP protein expression in the leaves was reduced into undetectable levels in western blot. Transgenic plants display classical photorespiratory impaired mutant phenotype, which suffers from chlorosis and early senescence when exposed in ambient air however recovers when placed in high CO2 condition. This also supported by the high accumulation of glycine and altered carbohydrate content. Physiological analysis of photosynthesis showed increase in CO2 compensation point, and photoinhibition in ambient air. This study is the first of its kind to show that significant reduction of GDCP in the leaves will produce severe photorespiratory phenotype.

description: The article addresses the life experience of a Mexican immigrant family after twenty years living in the United States illegaly. The information is recorded from the father’s testimony. The interview technique was used from a phenomenological approach that allows us to analyze the relationship between identity, culture and territory as related factors. The results highlight the existence of an emerging identity in which individuals transform the way they perceive themselves, others and the world around them, as a result of interactions in a disadvantaged social position. The need for a migration policy that guarantees the human rights of immigrants is pointed out.

description: The Hikurangi Subduction Zone (HSZ) is Aotearoa New Zealand’s largest, fastest-slipping active fault, with a large patch that is locked and accumulating strain immediately underneath the Greater Wellington region. Subduction earthquakes represent a major source of seismic hazard for Wellington, but, despite this clear importance, the behaviour of the southern HSZ remains poorly understood. The It’s Our Fault (IOF) Subduction Zone hazard task focuses on improving understanding of subduction earthquake hazard through: (1) field investigations to constrain the timing and magnitudes of past earthquakes and (2) numerical modelling of the effects of plausible subduction earthquakes. This report summarises work during the 2021/22 financial year: we present results from physics-based multi-cycle earthquake simulations and resulting ground motions, and preliminary field investigations of Holocene marine terraces at Puakimuri (Pukemuri) stream in south Wairarapa district. Models of synthetic earthquakes using simulator RSQSim show that a wide range of plausible subduction earthquakes can cause both uplift of the Wairarapa coast and subsidence at Mataora-Wairau Lagoon. These results further demonstrate that physics-based simulators could potentially be a useful tool for modelling seismic hazard associated with combined ruptures of the Hikurangi subduction interface and upper-plate faults in the Wellington region; such ruptures are currently not considered in available seismic hazard models. Geophysical and ground auger investigations at Puakimuri Stream confirm it as a prospective site for obtaining constraints on the timing of past earthquakes. We identify acquisition of vibracores as the most effective method for future work to constrain earthquake ages at Puakimuri Stream. Finally, we present radiocarbon ages from shells in an uplifted beach at Manurewa Point near Puakimuri Stream. The shell ages constrain the timing of the most recent earthquake at Manurewa Point to be 982–1204 years BP (95% confidence), which is similar to inferred ages for the most recent earthquake at nearby sites. Based on this age, we attribute the most recent uplift at Manurewa Point to an earthquake on the upper-plate Palliser–Kaiwhata Fault. (The authors)

description: The citizenship of a country brings many benefits to inhabitants, but above all to those who are immigrants. The objective of this article is to reflect on Argentine citizens with dual nationality, who due to the economic or political situation decided to emigrate from the province of Misiones to Switzerland or Germany. The concept of citizenship is often thought of as something simple, but when describing the plot of elements interrelate individual instance with the political system, the concept becomes more complex. In the right to Argentine citizenship, the ius solis prevails: being born on this land grants an inalienable nationality. These rights intrinsic to the ius solis or the “nationalization” of foreigners, are contrasted with countries granting citizenship by the ius sanguinis. The tension generated in the descendants of immigrants between the ius sanguinis of the nation of origin and the ius solis of Argentina is reflected in this article in four sections: the first is a brief contextualization of the German-Brazilian, German and Swiss migration to Misiones, in the second is exposed the difference between these nationalities-citizenships; to continue with some cases that have been traced along different investigations about Argentines who emigrated to Switzerland or Germany. Finally, we come to some reflections on transnational citizenship in relation to dual citizenship.

description: We describe an experimental technique for associating the satellite lines in a rare earth optical spectrum caused by a defect with the rare earth ions in crystal sites around that defect. This method involves measuring the hyperfine splitting caused by a magnetic dipole-dipole interaction between host ions and a magnetic defect. The method was applied to Ce3+:EuCl3.6H2O to assign 13 of the outermost 22 satellite lines to sites. The assignments show that the optical shift of a satellite line is loosely dependent on the distance to the dopant. The interaction between host and dopant ions is purely dipole-dipole at distances greater than 7 Angstroms, with an additional contribution, likely superexchange, at distances less than 7 Angstroms.

description: Many modern theories predict that the fundamental constants depend on time, position, or the local density of matter. We develop a spectroscopic method for pulsed beams of cold molecules, and use it to measure the frequencies of microwave transitions in CH with accuracy down to 3 Hz. By comparing these frequencies with those measured from sources of CH in the Milky Way, we test the hypothesis that fundamental constants may differ between the high and low density environments of the Earth and the interstellar medium. For the fine structure constant we find Δα/α= (0.3 +/- 1.1)*10^{-7}, the strongest limit to date on such a variation of α. For the electron-to-proton mass ratio we find Δμ/μ= (-0.7 +/- 2.2) * 10^{-7}. We suggest how dedicated astrophysical measurements can improve these constraints further and can also constrain temporal variation of the constants.

Centré esta investigación en las interacciones sociales entre todos los actores involucrados con el núcleo Santa Rosa de Agua, en la periferia norte de Maracaibo. Enfoco mi análisis en una “descripción densa” (Geertz, 1973) del rol de las madres de músicos estudiantes, tan presentes físicamente y tan importantes para garantizar el involucramiento de los niños. Las madres son actores fundamentales, que hay que integrar en el estudio sociológico si queremos entender los resultados educativos logrados en el núcleo de música. Insisto en el concepto de “continuidad” (Sarrouy, 2016) para explicar su relevancia en la educación durable. Es ahí que las madres del núcleo Santa Rosa de Agua, cualquiera que sea su capital económico, puedan ser un elemento clave en la educación personal y colectiva, sirviendo de apoyo medular a las directoras y los profesores de música.

description: This paper analyzes how from the country of origin, teachers of standard classrooms denominate to students of foreign nationality as different and the identification of these young people with the category mentioned. For it, we will be referring to students who have remained in Temporary Classrooms Linguistic Adaptation (Andalucía, Spain).Teaching staff point out that depending on the country of origin, these students will have different motivations, certain future expectations and a family-school relationship that does not always fit the reality. However, thanks to the students’ speech, you can see that this is not always the case. From the young people’s speech, we perceive how they do not feel identified with such a category. They feel identified like the rest of the young Spaniards. However, they are aware that students of foreign nationality are perceived differently than those considered Spanish. In order to carry out this work, the studies already carried out on this topic and the speeches used by the different subjects have been of great importance. Therefore, this research has been based on an ethnography will be carried out by bibliographical review, participant observation, discussion groups and different interviews. Thus, this paper will be realized from these techniques and the objectives set forth; where otherness and identification will be key to its development.

description: Purpose: Robotic scrub nurses have the potential to become an attractive solution for the operating room. Surgical instrument detection is a fundamental task for these systems, which is the focus of this work. We address the detection of the complete surgery set for wisdom teeth extraction, and propose a data augmentation technique tailored for this task. Methods: Using a robotic scrub nurse system, we create a dataset of 369 unique multi-instrument images with manual annotations. We then propose the Mask-Based Object Insertion method, capable of automatically generating a large amount of synthetic images. By using both real and artificial data, different Mask R-CNN models are trained and evaluated. Results: Our experiments reveal that models trained on the synthetic data created with our method achieve comparable performance to that of models trained on real images. Moreover, we demonstrate that the combination of real and our artificial data can lead to a superior level of generalization. Conclusion: The proposed data augmentation technique is capable of dramatically reducing the labelling work required for training a deep-learning-based detection algorithm. A dataset for the complete instrument set for wisdom teeth extraction is made available for the scientific community, as well as the raw information required for the generation of the synthetic data (https://github.com/Jorebs/Deep-learning-based-instrument-detection-for-intra operative-robotic-assistance).

description: Atomic transition probability measurements for 364 lines of Ti II in the UV through near IR are reported. Branching fractions from data recorded using a Fourier transform spectrometer and a new echelle spectrometer are combined with published radiative lifetimes to determine these transition probabilities. The new results are in generally good agreement with previously reported FTS measurements. Use of the new echelle spectrometer, independent radiometric calibration methods, and independent data analysis routines enables a reduction of systematic errors and overall improvement in transition probability accuracy over previous measurements. The new Ti II data are applied to high resolution visible and UV spectra of the Sun and metal-poor star HD 84937 to derive new, more accurate Ti abundances. Lines covering a range of wavelength and excitation potential are used to search for non-LTE effects. The Ti abundances derived using Ti II for these two stars match those derived using Ti I and support the relative Ti/Fe abundance ratio versus metallicity seen in previous studies.

Rayleigh-Taylor Instability at Ionization Fronts: Perturbation Analysis

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics (astro-ph.CO)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The linear growth rate of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability (RTI) at ionization fronts is investigated via perturbation analysis in the limit of incompressible fluids. In agreement with previous numerical studies is found that absorption of ionizing radiation inside the HII region due to hydrogen recombinations suppresses the growth of instabilities. In the limit of a large density contrast at the ionization front the RTI growth rate has the simple analytical solution n=-nur+(nur^2+gk)^(1/2), where nur is the hydrogen recombination rate inside the HII region, k is the perturbation's wavenumber and g is the effective acceleration in the frame of reference of the front. Therefore, the growth of surface perturbations with wavelengths lambda >> lambda_{cr} = 2πg/nur^2 is suppressed by a factor (lambda_{cr}/4lambda)^(1/2) with respect to the non-radiative incompressible RTI. Implications on stellar and black hole feedback are briefly discussed.

description: The analysis of negative birefringence optically induced in major air components (Loriot et al., [1, 2]) is revisited in light of the recently reported plasma grating-induced phase-shift effect predicted for strong field pump-probe experiments (Wahlstrand and Milchberg, [3]). The nonlinear birefrin- gence induced by a short and intense laser pulse in argon is measured by femtosecond time-resolved polarimetry. The experiments are performed with degenerate colors, where the pump and probe beam share the same spectrum, or with two different colors and non-overlapping spectra. The in- terpretation of the experimental results is substantiated using a numerical 3D+1 model accounting for nonlinear propagation effects, cross-beam geometry of the interacting laser pulses, and detec- tion technique. The model also includes the ionization rate of argon and high-order Kerr indices introduced by Loriot et al. enabling to assess the contribution of both terms to the observed effect. The results show that the ionization-induced phase-shift has a minor contribution compared to the high-order Kerr effect formerly introduced, the latter allowing a reasonably good reproduction of the experimental data for the present conditions.

“One sings for you with the hand”: gestures in Old Kingdom musical ensemble scenes
Creators: name: Megier, Austin
Publisher: name: Macquarie University

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: In the Old Kingdom (c. 2686-2181 BC) musical ensemble scenes were frequently depicted on elite tomb walls. The most intriguing musician in these ensembles was the one who gestures to the instrumentalists: the singer-chironomist. Throughout the twentieth century, scholars (most notably Hans Hickmann) argued that these gestures were representative of a musical practice known as chironomy: a system of hand-signs, and a type of conducting, used by a musician to indicate melody and rhythm. Previous scholars in the disciplines of musicology as well as Egyptology have hypothesised the musical significance and musical meaning of these gestures. But until now there has been no study which comprehensively classifies and categorises the gestures according to their visual characteristics. This study combines an art historical approach with a digital humanities approach, establishing a digital database for a corpus of 101 musical ensemble scenes from the Old Kingdom. Using the 229 individual hand signs which have been identified from 140 singer-chironomists, this study establishes a typology of gestures. The study identified three types of gesture (general, special, and unique), and a total of 17 individual signs. The digital database has facilitated effective and reliable quantitative analysis of the gestures and gesture combinations, statistically revealing unique characteristics for many of the signs. The study also demonstrates the possibility for qualitative analysis based on its findings, namely through hypothesising that in a select number of scenes, the tomb owner was an active participant in the musical ensemble, and that successive figures of singer-chironomists represent a lapse of time and thus movement. The study provides the necessary foundation for facilitating future research into the musical significance and musical meaning of the gestures, and sheds new light onto the nature of Old Kingdom music and the practice of ancient Egyptian chironomy.

description: The vegetation indices (VIs) derived from the hyperspectral reflectance of vegetation are presented in this study for monitoring live green vegetation in the northern ecosystems of Iceland, along the fjords of Eyjafjörður and the Skagafjörður. The comparative analysis of the following VIs was performed: the NDVI, RVI, NRVI, TVI, CTVI, TTVI and SAVI. The methodology is based on the raster calculator band in a QGIS. The dataset includes a Landsat TM scene of 2013, UTM Zone 53, WGS84 captured from the GloVis. The computed bands include the NIR and R spectral bands and their combinations according to the algorithms of each of the seven VIs. The hyperspectral reflectance and crop canopy computations were applied to generate various scales of VIs and demonstrated following data range: NDVI: -0.91 to 0.65, RVI: 0.22 to 19.65, NRVI: 0.63 to 0.90, TVI: 0 to 1.12, CTVI: -0.64 to 1.07, TTVI: 0.70 to 1.18 and SAVI: -1.36 to 0.99 (roughly to 1.00). Of these, the RVI, NRVI, TVI and TTVI are adjusted to the positive values while the NDVI, CTVI and SAVI do include the negative diapason in the dataset due to the computing algorithm. The algorithms of the seven VIs are described and visualized in form of maps based on the multispectral remote sensing Landsat TM imagery identifying vegetated areas, their health condition and distribution of green areas against the bare soils, rocks, ocean water, lakes and ice-covered glaciers. The paper contributes both to the technical presentation of the QGIS functionality for the Landsat TM data processing by a raster calculator, and to the regional geographic studies of Iceland and Arctic ecosystems.

description: Despite the recent advancements in the field of galaxy formation and evolution, fully self-consistent simulations are still unable to make the detailed predictions necessary for the planned and ongoing large spectroscopic and photometry surveys of the Milky Way disc. These difficulties arise from the very uncertain nature of sub-grid physical energy feedback within models, affecting both star formation rates and chemical enrichment. To avoid these problems, we have introduced a new approach which consists of fusing disc chemical evolution models with compatible numerical simulations. We demonstrate the power of this method by showing that a range of observational results can be explained by our new model. We show that due to radial migration from mergers at high redshift and the central bar at later times, a sizable fraction of old metal-poor, high-[alpha/Fe] stars can reach the solar vicinity. This naturally accounts for a number of recent observations related to both the thin and thick discs, despite the fact that we use thin-disc chemistry only. Within the framework of our model, the MW thick disc has emerged naturally from (i) stars born with high velocity dispersions at high redshift, (ii) stars migrating from the inner disc very early on due to strong merger activity, and (iii) further radial migration driven by the bar and spirals at later times. A significant fraction of old stars with thick-disc characteristics could have been born near the solar radius.

description: IC MAGE M08 is a user-defined model for PLAXIS built using the IC MAGE UMIP framework which combines a Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion with a modified version of the IC.G3S isotropic small strain stiffness model and the nonlinear scaling factor proposed by Taborda & Zdravkovic (2012). It allows for the generation of hysteresis (and energy dissipation) by adopting a cyclic nonlinear elastic framework. The elastic part of the model allows the use of independent variations of constrained modulus, with its degradation depending on the vertical strain, and the shear modulus, which depends on the deviatoric strain.

In particular we investigate $p \bar{p} \rightarrow \overline{D^0} D^0$ within a double handbag approach, where a hard subprocess factorizes from soft hadronic matrix elements. The soft matrix elements can be parametrized by transition distribution amplitudes, which are off-diagonal in flavor space. The transition distribution amplitudes are modelled as overlaps of light-cone wave functions. We obtain rather robust model results for $p \bar{p} \rightarrow \overline{D^0} D^0$ cross sections, which are expected to be measured at the future $\bar{\text{P}}\text{ANDA}$ detector at GSI-FAIR.

description: IC MAGE M08 is a user-defined model for PLAXIS built using the IC MAGE UMIP framework which combines a Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion with a modified version of the IC.G3S isotropic small strain stiffness model and the nonlinear scaling factor proposed by Taborda & Zdravkovic (2012). It allows for the generation of hysteresis (and energy dissipation) by adopting a cyclic nonlinear elastic framework. The elastic part of the model allows the use of independent variations of constrained modulus, with its degradation depending on the vertical strain, and the shear modulus, which depends on the deviatoric strain.

description: We study the gap probabilities of the single-time Tacnode process. Through steepest descent analysis of a suitable Riemann-Hilbert problem, we show that under appropriate scaling regimes the gap probability of the Tacnode process degenerates into a product of two independent gap probabilities of the Airy processes.

“Me ponían apodos o estereotipos por el simple hecho de ser cristiana”: actores y comportamientos racistas hacia las religiones cristianas no católicas en la ciudad de Saltillo (México)

description: This article focuses on an investigation whose general objective is to reconstruct and classify forms of differentialist racism towards the members of non-Catholic Christian religions in the city of Saltillo, both in their face - to - face relationships and in the mass media. The theoretical framework consists of the following concepts and themes: racism, cultural racism/differentialist racism and racism in the mass media. The main results highlight, among other aspects, ambivalent tendencies: on the one hand, interviewees point out the scarce presence of non-Catholic Christian religions in the traditional mass media (mainly in open television, radio and newspapers) and, on the other hand, the guaranteed presence in social networks which seem to be, although with some problematic implications, the main means of expression of non-Catholic Christian religions in Mexico. In face-to-face relationships, however, the most racist actors are the priests and members of the Catholic Church, priests and members of other Christian churches, family members of Catholicism, school friends and school teachers; while the acts by which differentialist racism is expressed have to do with more or less serious forms of symbolic violence. Finally, in the conclusions, it is pointed out the importance of promoting the passage from diversity to religious pluralism, as a starting point to be able to aspire to the construction of societies based on peaceful coexistence of differences.

description: The current conflict in Syria has caused millions of refugees to leave their country in search of asylum and a safe haven. Over the past two years both European and American citizens have received more than thousands of refugees, including children, accompanied by their parents or caretakers and unaccompanied. Similarly, Puerto Rico, which has been accepting refugees from closer countries for years refugees, has expressed its interest in receiving Syrian refugees. However, because of the country being an US territory, this decision lies in the North American country. According to international standards and the Convention relating to the Status of Refugees (1951), all refugee minors deserve a number of rights, among them, the right to education. The objective of this research is to measure the attitudes of Puerto Rican adults towards refugee minors and to verify if the Puerto Ricans accept the schooling of refugee minors in Puerto Rican schools. For this investigation a survey was conducted in which 140 Puerto Ricans participated by using the quantitative method. As a result, the majority of the Puerto Ricans accept the schooling of refugee children in Puerto Rican classrooms, they believe their arrival can be enriching and they respect their rights. In conclusion, the greater part of respondents has a positive attitude toward the inclusion of refugee minors in schools.

description: The morphology of galaxies can be quantified to some degree using a set of scale-invariant parameters. Concentration (C), Asymmetry (A), Smoothness (S), the Gini index (G), relative contribution of the brightest pixels to the second order moment of the flux (M20), ellipticity (E), and the Gini index of the second order moment (GM) have all been applied to morphologically classify galaxies at various wavelengths. Here we present a catalog of these parameters for the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S4G), a volume-limited near-infrared imaging survey of nearby galaxies using the 3.6 and 4.5 micron channels of the IRAC camera. Our goal is to provide a reference catalog of near-infrared quantified morphology for high-redshift studies and galaxy evolution models with enough detail to resolve stellar mass morphology. We explore where normal, non-interacting galaxies -those typically found on the Hubble tuning fork- lie in this parameter space and show that there is a tight relation between Concentration and M20 for normal galaxies. M20 can be used to classify galaxies into earlier and later types (e.g., to separate spirals from irregulars). Several criteria using these parameters exist to select systems with a disturbed morphology, i.e., those that appear to be undergoing a tidal interaction. We examine the applicability of these criteria to Spitzer near-infrared imaging. We find that four relations, based on the parameters A&S, G&M20, GM, and C&M20, respectively, select outliers in the morphological parameter space, but each selects different subsets of galaxies. Two criteria (GM > 0.6, G > -0.115 x M20 + 0.384) seem most appropriate to identify possible mergers and the merger fraction in near-infrared surveys. We find no strong relation between lopsidedness and most of these morphological parameters, except for a weak dependence of lopsidedness on Concentration and M20.

A cidadania nacional no contexto das migrações internacionais
Creators: name: Ferreira Santos, Valdirene
Publisher: name: Comparative Cultural Studies - European and Latin American Perspectives
Year: 2018

description: This work analyzes national citizenship, in some aspects of its development and transformations, from the emergence of the nation state to the present day, problematizing it in relation to international migrations as a reality that becomes increasingly present in different societies. From a sociological theoretical approach centered on the relations of inclusion and exclusion in Western societies, which become continually more pluralistic and globalized, he argues that despite the tendency towards universal universalization of modern citizenship, by gradually reaching the minority groups of different societies, this democratic institution, in its link with nationality, has in many ways allowed the marginalization and exclusion of foreigners and immigrants. In this sense, it discusses the limits of the citizen institution facing the international migrations of the globalized world for inclusion in globalized and plural societies. It concludes that other forms of citizenship that are more inclusive and disaggregated from the territory-nation-state nucleus begin to be visible, but the centrality of national citizenship continues to deepen the exclusion of immigrants and foreigners in the social space.

Voices from above and below: divine communication in the Epic of Gilgamesh
Creators: name: Statheos, Paul
Publisher: name: Macquarie University

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: The Standard Babylonian Version of the Epic of Gilgamesh offers numerous examples of communication between mortals and divinities, including the marriage proposal of the goddess Ishtar, the counsel of the sage Siduri, and the words of Gilgamesh’s divine mother Ninsun. In addition, it depicts communication with a number of liminal beings on the fringes of the conceptual category of godhood, such as the forest guardian Humbaba, the immortal flood-hero Uta-napišti, and the semi-divine Gilgamesh himself. This thesis assesses the nature of these interactions to explore how the genre of the SBV and the unique social and liminal qualities of its protagonists have shaped the character of these depictions of divine communication within their cultural context.
