description: Antibiotic-resistant food-borne Listeriosis has been rising with up to 30% mortality threat in humans since several decades. Hence, discovering antilisterial from the extracts of ethnomedicinal plants may be of value as a novel antidote. In our preceding study, we reported that ethanolic extract of Piper betle L. var Pachaikodi leaves exhibited antibacterial activity towards Listeria monocytogenes MTCC 657. Consequently in the present study, the bioactive molecule responsible for anti-Listeria activity was purified and identified as 4-allylbenzene-1,2-diol. This identified bioactive compound may have significance while used as antimicrobials and/or food additives in food processing sector as evidenced by dual action: biofilm inhibition and pore formation on cell membrane.

description: Solitary waves (SWs) are generated in monoatomic (homogeneous) lightly contacting spherical granules by an applied input force of any time-variation and intensity. We consider finite duration shock loads and focus on the transition regime that leads to the formation of SWs. Based on geometrical and material properties of the granules and the properties of the input shock, we provide explicit analytic expressions to calculate the peak value of the compressive contact force at each contact point in the transition regime that precedes the formation of a primary solitary wave. We also provide explicit expressions to estimate the number of granules involved in the transition regime and show its dependence on the characteristics of the input shock and material/geometrical properties of the interacting granules. Finally, we assess the accuracy of our theoretical results by comparing them with those obtained through numerical integration of the equations of motion.

Year: 2020
Subjects: Chickpea, Genotype, Phenotype, Selection, Identification model, machine learning

description: Ethiopia is the leading producer, consumer, and seller of chickpea in Africa and one of the
 top ten most important producers of chickpea in the world. Chickpea plays an important
 role in poor people’s diet and human nutrition in Ethiopia and the arid and semiarid regions
 of the world. Genome enabled prediction technologies trying to transform the identification
 of crops phenotypes and not only change but upgrading the existing prediction and
 identification paradigm towards the next generation of agricultural breeding mechanism.
 Current state of the identification of chickpea phenotype in Ethiopia still sticks to a manual
 system. Domain experts tried to recognize every chickpea genome and phenotypes, the
 way and efficiency of identifying each chickpea varieties mainly depend on the skills and
 experience of experts in the domain area. Attempts are made to design phenotype
 identification model to facilitate the selection, identification and classification of different
 crops phenotypes but Most of those researches were done outside Ethiopia; for local and
 emerging varieties, new paradigms should be researched and even the accuracy of an
 existing algorithm should be verified. As to the researcher knowledge no studies are
 conducted to find a way to design such model in the area of Ethiopian existing and
 emerging chickpea varieties therefore is a need to design identification model that assists
 the selection and identification mechanisms of chickpea.
 The main aim of this study is to design phenotype identification model using machine
 learning algorithm that identifies chickpea phenotypes. To build the identification model
 of chickpea phenotype artificial neural network, support vector machines and decision tree
 were used. For evaluating the performance of the developed model confusion matrix with
 accuracy, recall, and precision were used. A total of 8303 records 80% for training and
 20% for testing with 9 features were used in order to identify chickpea phenotype. Data
 collection, data preparation, feature selection, data preprocessing and data transformation
 were done in order to prepare the dataset for experiments. The evaluation of best
 performing algorithms is compared according to accuracy, sensitivity, specificity and precision. Based on performance evaluator the best algorithms are found to be decision tree
 and achieves 97.5% accuracy.
 Finally, the main outputs of this study for domain experts and research community is design
 chickpea phenotype identification model. Another important output is collecting and
 preparing chickpea genotype dataset based on the feedback from domain experts of Debre
 Zeit agriculture research center in order to help other researchers in conducting related
 studies to handle data problems.

description: A new pentacyclic guanidine alkaloid, monanchoxymycalin C (1) was isolated from a new collection of marine sponge Monanchora pulchra along with the known monanchoxymycalin A (2). The structure of 1 was elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data. Monanchoxymycalin C exhibits cytotoxic activity against human cancer HeLa cells at low micromolar concentrations, induces apoptosis-related death of malignant cells and inhibits cancer cell colony formation. In addition, synergistic and additive effects have been observed in combination with cisplatin.

description: This study aims to advance hardware-level computations for travel-time tomography applications in which the wavelength is close to the diameter of the information that has to be recovered. Such can be the case, for example, in the imaging applications of (1) biomedical physics, (2) astro-geophysics and (3) civil engineering. Our aim is to shed light on the effect of that preprocessing the digital waveform signal has on the inversion results and to find computational solutions that guarantee robust inversion when there are incomplete and/or noisy measurements. We describe a hardware-level implementation for integrated and thresholded travel-time computation (ITT and TTT). We compare the ITT and TTT approaches in inversion analysis with experimental acoustic travel-time data recorded using a ring geometry for the transmission and measurement points. The results obtained suggest that ITT is essential for maintaining the robustness of the inversion with imperfect signal digitization and sparsity. In order to ensure the relevance of the results, the specifications of the test setup were related to those of applications (1)-(3).

description: For the first time accurate pulsation properties of the ancient variable stars of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph) are discussed in the broad context of galaxy formation and evolution. Homogeneous multi-band $BVI$ optical photometry of spanning {\it twenty} years has allowed us to identify and characterize more than 1400 RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) in this galaxy. Roughly 70\% are new discoveries. We investigate the period-amplitude distribution and find that Fornax shows a lack of High Amplitude (A$_V\gsim$0.75 mag) Short Period fundamental-mode RRLs (P$\lsim$0.48 d, HASPs). These objects occur in stellar populations more metal-rich than [Fe/H]$\sim$-1.5 and they are common in the Galactic halo (Halo) and in globulars. This evidence suggests that old (age older than 10 Gyr) Fornax stars are relatively metal-poor. A detailed statistical analysis of the role of the present-day Fornax dSph in reproducing the Halo period distribution shows that it can account for only a few to 20\% of the Halo when combined with RRLs in massive dwarf galaxies (Sagittarius dSph, Large Magellanic Cloud). This finding indicates that Fornax-like systems played a minor role in building up the Halo when compared with massive dwarfs. We also discuss the occurrence of HASPs in connection with the luminosity and the early chemical composition of nearby dwarf galaxies. We find that, independently of their individual star formation histories, bright (M$_V\lsim$-13.5 mag) galaxies have HASPs, whereas faint ones (M$_V\gsim$-11 mag) do not. Interestingly enough, Fornax belongs to a luminosity range (--11$

Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2020
Subjects: DIgSILENT, Genetic algorithm, Network reconfiguration, Power Loss, Sectionalizing switch, Tie switch

description: Electric power distribution systems consist of tie and sectionalizing switches. Tie switches are
 normally open and sectionalizing switches are normally closed. By opening and closing these
 switches the distribution system can be configured. This reconfiguration can be done for the
 objective of loss minimization, load balancing and voltage profile improvement. In order to get
 feasible results the reconfiguration must meet some constraints, like Kirchhoff’s voltage and
 current law, equality and inequality constraints. Distribution network reconfiguration is an
 optimization problem and needs a suitable algorithm to tackle this problem. Genetic algorithm is
 employed using MATLAB, described in detail and applied specifically to network
 reconfiguration problem. In the optimization process load flow of the distribution system should
 be computed. For this purpose and simulation of the distribution network, DIgSILENT power
 factory software is used. Cotebie distribution substation has been chosen as test system for the
 study. The result of simulation indicates that after reconfiguration power loss has decreased from
 7.178MW to 4.772MW which is 33.51% of reduction. Also after new overhead line is used in
 addition to reconfiguration the power loss become 4.37% of generation and cost analysis is done
 the result indicates that the investment cost required to install this system can payed back in
 1.276year. This thesis also includes comparisons analysis between existing system, after
 reconfiguration and after overhead line upgraded on the basis of loss reduction and voltage
 profile improvement. Finally conclusions are made on reconfiguration of the distribution feeder.
 Also recommendations are made for future researchers to use other optimization techniques.

description: In a recent work [D. K. Burgarth et al., Nat. Commun. 5, 5173 (2014)] it was shown that a series of frequent measurements can project the dynamics of a quantum system onto a subspace in which the dynamics can be more complex. In this subspace even full controllability can be achieved, although the controllability over the system before the projection is very poor since the control Hamiltonians commute with each other. We can also think of the opposite: any Hamiltonians of a quantum system, which are in general noncommutative with each other, can be made commutative by embedding them in an extended Hilbert space, and thus the dynamics in the extended space becomes trivial and simple. This idea of making noncommutative Hamiltonians commutative is called "Hamiltonian purification." The original noncommutative Hamiltonians are recovered by projecting the system back onto the original Hilbert space through frequent measurements. Here we generalize this idea to open-system dynamics by presenting a simple construction to make Lindbladians, as well as Hamiltonians, commutative on a larger space with an auxiliary system. We show that the original dynamics can be recovered through frequently measuring the auxiliary system in a non-selective way. Moreover, we provide a universal pair of Lindbladians which describes an "accessible" open quantum system for generic system sizes. This allows us to conclude that through a series of frequent non-selective measurements a nonaccessible open quantum system generally becomes accessible. This sheds further light on the role of measurement backaction on the control of quantum systems.

description: The prototype of an information visualisation tool was developed using combined information from the Que´bec and Atlantic Provinces Dairy Production Centre of Expertise (Valacta Inc.) and the Quebec Animal Health Records (DSAHR Inc.), with the objective of presenting cumulative lifetime-profit results, and the factors that affect them, thereby facilitating the process of analysing and comparing results at the dairy-herd and individual-cow levels. The information visualisation prototype created benchmarking curves with the possibility to evaluate current profitability at the herd and individual-cow level, and also to monitor the effect of historical decisions and events on the future components of profit. The user is presented with a herd analysis that compares its profit evolution to those of selected cohorts. These values are calculated from the accumulation of average daily profit estimates by herd or cohort. At the individual-cow level, lifetime profit curves are presents that include the effects of health and breeding-service costs among others. It is hoped that this prototype may demonstrate the value, to Dairy Herd Improvement agencies, of analysing and visualizing existing and potential profitability at the herd level, and lifetime analysis at the individualcow level.

description: Objective: Neuropsychological assessment (NPA) addresses important aspects of diagnosis, prognosis, treatment, and rehabilitation planning. This review set out to determine the impact of NPA on the adult patient’s outcome, by examining how and whether NPA influences diagnostic decision-making and surgical planning, how NPA can be used to predict patient outcome, and how clients, referrers, and significant others perceive the value of NPA. Method: Eligible studies were selected according to pre-defined selection criteria and accessed via the electronic databases Medline and PsycInfo. Results: Eighty-one studies were included, with 14 examining the influence of NPA on diagnosis, 62 in predicting outcomes, and 5 addressing the perceptions of NPA by users. The evidence was generally supportive of the value of NPA for its ability to increase the accuracy of diagnoses, to assist with decisions regarding surgical planning, to predict patient outcomes, and in its clinical benefit as reported by physicians and patients. Conclusion: The review demonstrated the benefit of NPA in assisting with diagnosis and prognosis, and showed positive findings with regard to consumer perceptions of NPA. The neuropsychological literature would materially benefit from high-quality randomized control trials of NPA to definitively demonstrate the efficacy of this measure in clinical management.
Flood Plain Mapping & Damage Analysis A Case study of Logiya River, Afar Region

Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2020
Subjects: ArcGIS, DEM, HEC-RAS, Inundation Map and Logiya River

description: Flood is one of the natural disasters which cause damage on property and human lives.
 The objective of this study was to develop floodplain mapping of the inundated area and
 damage analysis of Logiya River. The method was, first flood frequency analysis was
 done by selecting appropriate probability distribution based on goodness of fit and Lmoment ratio diagram. Second, ArcGIS 10.4.1 software model was used to develop the
 digital elevation map using the surveyed point data. Flood inundation mapping in ArcGIS
 and field survey done to estimate property loss. Triangulated irregular network prepared
 in ArcGIS with GeoRAS extension to set layout of the river. The third step involves the
 calibration of the model using the roughness coefficient as the calibrating parameter. The
 calibration is performed by manually changing surface roughness coefficient until the
 good fit between simulated and measured water surface level is obtained. As a result, Log
 Pearson type III was the best fit and the flood estimated are 344.4,302.7, 393.1, 499.2,
 570.9, 635.8 and 694.8 m3/s for 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100 and 200 years return period
 respectively. These floods were used for water surface profile computations. Area
 inundated by 2, 5, 10, 15, 25, 50, 100 and 200 years return period were 259, 262, 267,
 275, 279, 283 and 287km2 respectively. For 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100 and 200 years return
 period, the maximum flood depth were 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.6, 4.7, 4.8 and 4.9m respectively.
 The total estimated economic damage for 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100 and 200 years return
 period were 606666.7$, 716000$, 946666.7$, 1002667$, 1314667$, 1366667$ and
 1492000$ respectively. The coefficient of determination (R2) was found as 0.601 and
 0.682 and Nash Sutcliffe (ENS) 0.574 and 0.651 respectively at the upstream and
 downstream of Logiya Siphon. It can be conclude that the flood depth area showed most
 of the flooding area had water depth between 2.42m to 4.9m, the inundate area and
 estimated damage for 200 years return period was 287km2 and 1492000$ respectively.
 From the result obtained Socio economic impact analysis and economic comparison of
 different flood mitigation strategies in Logiya River needs further study in order to know
 the social impact and identify the economic feasibility of flood mitigation measure

description: We study a new nonlinear partial differential equation of the fifth order for the description of perturbations in the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam mass chain. This fifth-order equation is an expansion of the Gardner equation for the description of the Fermi--Pasta--Ulam model. We use the potential of interaction between neighbouring masses with both quadratic and cubic terms. The equation is derived using the continuous limit. Unlike the previous works, we take into account higher order terms in the Taylor series expansions. We investigate the equation using the Painlevé approach. We show that the equation does not pass the Painlevé test and can not be integrated by the inverse scattering transform. We use the logistic function method and the Laurent expansion method to find travelling wave solutions of the fifth--order equation. We use the pseudospectral method for the numerical simulation of wave processes, described by the equation.

description: The aim of the study was to estimate the financial impact (direct and indirect costs) of livestock theft and to identify different methods farmers used to control stock theft in the Free State Province of South Africa. The study used primary data collected from 292 commercial livestock farmers from the five municipalities of the Free State province. The direct and indirect cost of livestock theft rate was significant and mostly a higher level of management led to lower livestock theft losses. Livestock theft should be controlled successfully in order to sustain the South African livestock industry and competitiveness. The study recommends that there should be coordination and collaboration among all key role players in the industry including government institutions, the South African Police Service, agricultural businesses or organisations, farmer’s unions and stock theft units. The role players should target, eradicate or reduce stock theft and encourage controlling mechanisms in order to enhance food security, sustain livestock competitiveness and achieve sustainable development goals by reducing hunger and poverty.

Subjects: Rakesh Kumar Bachheti

description: Shampoo is the preparation of surfactants aimed at removal of surface grease, dirt and
 skin debris from hair, shaft and scalp without adversely affecting the user. The main
 aim of this study was to formulate herbal shampoos using Ethiopian plant extracts and
 to evaluate their physicochemical properties. The herbal shampoos were formulated
 using seed oil extracts of Lepidium sativum and Ricinus communis, and essential oil
 extracts of Lippia adeonsis Hochest ex. Walp koseret. The formulated herbal shampoos
 were evaluated for its organoleptic and physicochemical properties such as pH, surface
 tension, viscosity, dirt dispersion, antimicrobial activities and stability study. When
 investigation data were assessed, the formulations were pleasant, appealing, produced
 sufficient foam and showed good cleansing activities. The pH values were in a range
 of 5.90±0.22 to 7.45±0.19 and lower surface tension (23.39±0.20 to 31.89±1.04
 dyne/cm) as well as acceptable viscosity with good shearing properties were obtained.
 The formulations products exhibited good antimicrobial activities against Escherichia
 coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Aspergillus Niger. This might be related to the
 presence of essential oil having linalool (73.13%) as dominating compound when
 analysed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (GC-MS), and synergetic effects
 of other ingredients in the formulations. When the surface morphologies of hair samples
 studied for cleaning efficacy of formulated herbal shampoo using scanning electron
 microscope (SEM), clean and smooth surface was observed for treated samples, which
 is comparable to that of marketed shampoo. The result indicated that the formulated
 herbal shampoo is good, having acceptable properties, at par with commercially
 available shampoos. However, additional investigation and further research and
 development are required to improve its quality and safety.

description: We present the first measurement of the surface magnetic field of a late-M dwarf, LSR J1835+3259, with the help of the full-Stokes spectropolarimetry in the bands of diatomic molecules. Our magnetic field measurements at different rotational phases of the dwarf yielded one 5$σ$ and two 3$σ$ detections. The observational data have been obtained with the LRISp polarimeter at the Keck observatory on August 22nd and 23rd, 2012. These data have been compared against synthetic full-Stokes spectra in the bands of the molecules CrH, FeH and TiO, which have been calculated for a range of the stellar parameters and magnetic field strengths. Making use of $χ^2$-minimization and maximum likelihood estimation, we determine the net magnetic field strength $B$ (and not flux $Bf$) of LSR J1835+3259 to $\sim5$ kG, mainly with the help of the Paschen-Back effect in the CrH lines. Our measurements at different rotational phases suggest that the dwarf's surface might be covered with strong small-scale magnetic fields. In addition, recent findings of the hydrogen emission and the Stokes V signal in the Na I near-infrared doublet indicate that the dwarf's surface magnetic field might be changing rapidly giving rise to flare activity, similar to young dMe dwarfs.

description: New interatomic potentials describing defects, plasticity and high temperature phase transitions for Ti are presented. Fitting the martensitic hcp-bcc phase transformation temperature requires an efficient and accurate method to determine it. We apply a molecular dynamics (MD) method based on determination of the melting temperature of competing solid phases, and Gibbs-Helmholtz integration, and a lattice-switch Monte Carlo method (LSMC): these agree on the hcp-bcc transformation temperatures to within 2 K. We were able to develop embedded atom potentials which give a good fit to either low or high temperature data, but not both. The first developed potential (Ti1) reproduces the hcp-bcc transformation and melting temperatures and is suitable for the simulation of phase transitions and bcc Ti. Two other potentials (Ti2 and Ti3) correctly describe defect properties, and can be used to simulate plasticity or radiation damage in hcp Ti. The fact that a single EAM potential cannot describe both low and high temperature phases may be attributed to neglect of electronic degrees of freedom, notably bcc has a much higher electronic entropy. A temperature-dependent potential obtained from the combination of potentials Ti1 and Ti2 may be used to simulate Ti properties at any temperature.

Subjects: Hydrodynamic model; HEC RAS 2D flood modeling; RAS Mapper; GIS; HEC HMS

description: Flood affects lives and livelihoods in parts of Ethiopia. The flood from the Jemo river
 is causing damages to river side houses, infrastructures and displacement of affected
 population that resulted overflow on the surface following heavy rains and inundated
 lowland areas in the Nifas Silk Lafto district of Addis Ababa city. This research involves
 the integration of Hydrologic Engineering Center-Hydrologic Modeling System (HECHMS) and Hydrologic Engineering Center-River Analysis System (HEC-RAS) with
 Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to develop a two-dimensional river model for
 flood inundation determination and mapping. The HEC-HMS model was calibrated
 using Big Akaki gauging station daily rainfall and daily stream flow data. The NashSutcliffe efficiency (ENS) was found to be 0.751 during calibration and 0.79 during
 validation and the coefficient of determination (R2) was found to be 0.786 during
 calibration and 0.801 during validation. The HEC -RAS model was calibrated by
 comparing the results of the water level in each selected cross section obtained by the
 model with the observed historic flood mark levels of the year 2010 and 2013. The peak
 estimated time series discharge of HEC HMS model result was used to simulate the
 unsteady state of flow to determine flood extent, water depth and velocity of the study
 river. Flood hazard vulnerable areas both left and right side of the Jemo river
 delineated for the return periods 2, 5, 10, 25, 50 and 100 years and found 8,992.74m2,
 10,527.96 m2, 11,562.84m2, 11,383.16 m2, 10,383.18 m2, 8,226.61m2 respectively.
 Community houses ranging from mud houses to regular story buildings can be affected
 during each return period maximum flooding event. Jemo river flow capacity also
 checked at selected cross sections and less carrying capacity for respective return
 period probable flood at stations 2,899m,902m and 595m for each return periods.
 Flood protection measures like dyke and retaining masonry walls construction were
 recommended at low elevation locations to tackle the flooding impact and to avoid
 possible erosion of the river banks at 183m,435m,595m,1753m and 3252m of the river
 sections upstream of Jemo condominium houses location.

description: The motion of a viscous droplet in unbounded Poiseuille flow under the combined influence of bulk-insoluble surfactant and linearly varying temperature field aligned in the direction of imposed flow is studied analytically. Neglecting fluid inertia, thermal convection and shape deformation, asymptotic analysis is performed to obtain the velocity of a force-free surfactant-laden droplet. The present study is focused on two limiting situations of surfactant transport: (i) small surface Peclet number, and (ii) high surface Peclet number. Thermocapillary-induced Marangoni stress, strength of which relative to viscous stress is represented by thermal Marangoni number, has strong influence on the distribution of surfactant on the droplet surface. Temperature field not only affects the axial velocity of the droplet but also has significant effect on the cross-stream velocity of the droplet in spite of the fact that the temperature gradient is aligned with the Poiseuille flow direction. When the imposed temperature increases in the direction of Poiseuille flow, the droplet migrates towards the flow centerline. The magnitude of both axial and cross-stream velocity components increases with the thermal Marangoni number. However, when the imposed temperature decreases in the direction of Poiseuille flow, the magnitude of both axial and cross-stream velocity components may increase or decrease with the thermal Marangoni number. Most interestingly, the droplet moves either towards the flow centerline or away from it. Present study shows a critical value of the thermal Marangoni number beyond which the droplet moves away from the flow centerline which is in sharp contrast to the motion of a surfactant-laden droplet in isothermal flow for which droplet always moves towards the flow centerline.
Flood Inundation Modelling & Mapping for Gilgel Abay River : Nile Basin Ethiopia

Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2020
Subjects: HEC-HMS, HEC-RAS, Floodplain map, Gilgel Abay and 2D Modeling

description: Flood is an overflowing of water over land surface when the volume of water raises higher
 than the banks of the water body. Ethiopia is one of the east African countries that is
 severely affected by it due to the countries rainfall characteristics in which, more than 80%
 of its annual precipitation falls in four wet month. The objective of this research was to
 model the flow characteristics of Gilgel-Abay River and to develop flood map for the area.
 Integration of HEC-HMS and HEC-RAS with ARC-GIS was used to create a regional
 model for floodplain determination, modeling analysis representation. HEC-HMS was
 used for hydrologic model calibration with the use of daily time series data for return
 periods of 2, 10, 25, 50 and 100 years and the model was compared with different frequency
 analysis methods. HEC-RAS with HEC-GEORAS interface in coordination with ARC-GIS
 was used to carry out the two dimensional hydraulic modeling and generation of flood
 maps. Daily discharge and rainfall data were used for HEC-HMS Calibration and
 Validation with both results showing good match between measured and simulated
 precipitation data, with acceptable range of coefficient of determination R2 (between 0.7
 and 1, Calibration value being 0.72 and Validation 0.73) and Nash-Sutcliffe (NSE)
 (between 0.5 and 0.75, Calibration value being 0.51 and Validation 0.54). The result of
 hydrologic model demonstrated peak discharges of 223.9 m3/s, 367.5 m3/s, 438.4 m3/s,
 440.5 m3/s and 501.6m3/s for return periods of 2, 10, 25, 50 and 100 years respectively.
 According to the flood map generated, flooded area for the return periods 2, 10, 25, 50
 and 100 years were 6.2 km2, 7.3 km2, 7.8 km2, 7.9km2 and 8.3 km2 respectively. Flood
 damage of the area was assessed using depth damage function method and the estimated
 damage to the agricultural land use with water depth greater than 1m was 32.18 km2.
 Therefore, non-structural measures like afforestation as well as structural flood protection
 measures like dikes and levees were recommended to be constructed around the
 agricultural area.

description: The Tuber ascomata (truffles) are a microhabitat for bacteria, viruses, and fungi (yeasts and filamentous fungi). In this survey, we tried to develop a method that would make it possible to define the mycobiome of the truffle-inhabiting filamentous fungi using culture independent molecular methods. The nested quantitative Real-Time PCR allowed us to demonstrate that each truffle is home to multiple species of filamentous fungi and that their DNA is present within the healthy ascoma at the ratio of 10−6 compared to that of the truffle. Probably due to their insignificant presence, Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis of the amplification of ITS amplicons showed only those of the host. Based on the results, the possibilities of being able to detect the fungicolous fungi present in very small amounts within a fungal host are discussed.

description: Periodograms are used as a key significance assessment and visualisation tool to display the significant periodicities in unevenly sampled time series. We introduce a framework of periodograms, called "Agatha", to disentangle periodic signals from correlated noise and to solve the 2-dimensional model selection problem: signal dimension and noise model dimension. These periodograms are calculated by applying likelihood maximization and marginalization and combined in a self-consistent way. We compare Agatha with other periodograms for the detection of Keplerian signals in synthetic radial velocity data produced for the Radial Velocity Challenge as well as in radial velocity datasets of several Sun-like stars. In our tests we find Agatha is able to recover signals to the adopted detection limit of the radial velocity challenge. Applied to real radial velocity, we use Agatha to confirm previous analysis of CoRoT-7 and to find two new planet candidates with minimum masses of 15.1 $M_\oplus$ and 7.08 $M_\oplus$ orbiting HD177565 and HD41248, with periods of 44.5 d and 13.4 d, respectively. We find that Agatha outperforms other periodograms in terms of removing correlated noise and assessing the significances of signals with more robust metrics. Moreover, it can be used to select the optimal noise model and to test the consistency of signals in time. Agatha is intended to be flexible enough to be applied to time series analyses in other astronomical and scientific disciplines. Agatha is available at http://www.agatha.herts.ac.uk.
