title: SMD-synth: A synthesized variant of the SMD MIDI-Audio Piano Music subset

description: <em>SMD-synth</em> is a synthesized dataset based on the Saarland Music Data (SMD) MIDI-Audio Piano Music subset. <em>SMD</em> constitutes 50 pieces of classical piano music with an overall playtime of approx. 261 minutes. The dataset was created using a Disklavier, and thus contains MIDI files and audio in the form of WAV files. The specialties of <em>SMD-synth</em> are the synthesized WAV files, where for every note-off MIDI event, the piano note is immediately cut off, thus strictly mirroring both the MIDI events and spectral magnitude information. Also, the MIDI information has been altered in such a way that obvious MIDI processor errors have been removed, sustain pedal info was removed, and the beginnings and ends of the musical pieces were trimmed further. The <em>SMD</em> dataset: Meinard Müller, Verena Konz, Wolfgang Bogler, and Vlora Arifi-Müller<br> Saarland Music Data (SMD)<br> In Late-Breaking and Demo Session of the International Conference on Music Information Retrieval (ISMIR), 2011. The <em>SMD</em> dataset is under a CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 license. The official website is accessible under http://resources.mpi-inf.mpg.de/SMD/SMD_MIDI-Audio-Piano-Music.html.

title: Midgut cells alteration in gamma-irradiated beetles (Blaps polycresta, Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae)

description: Abstract This study was conducted to examine the effect of gamma radiation on biological specimens. Thus, our concept is to clarify that exposure to accumulated dose of 0.2 Gy gamma rays (0.66 rad/Sec. dose rate) from Cs137 source induces cellular perturbations in the midgut epithelium of the F1 progeny of Blaps polycresta, therefore affecting nutrition and growth. Beetles were reared in laboratory conditions and the newly emerged adults were irradiated with the aforementioned dose. Histological and ultrastructure anomalies of midgut cells (digestive and regenerative cells) were observed by 72 h after radiation exposure to ensure that the cells will not return to control state. Retardation in the development of the F1 progeny was also noticed and beetles died through two weeks. In the light of these observations, biological tissue act as an indicator to the continuous exposure to environmental radiation.

title: Agronomic characteristics, structural and chemical characteristics of grass in Piata stocking with intermittent rest periods vary depending on the sward height

description: Objective was to evaluate the influence of different grazing height on agronomic, structural and qualitative characteristics of Brachiaria brizantha cv. Piata managed under rotational stocking. We evaluated three sward heights (30, 45 and 60 cm) over two growing seasons (Middle and Final Season). We adopted the randomized complete block design with split plot, where the plots were allocated heights and subplots the growing seasons. Height values met the experimental protocol, showing averages of 35.2; 43.5 and 59.4, respectively 30, 45 and 60 cm. The rest period was variable during the heights and providing different grazing cycles, with an average DP of 34, 39 and 54 days, respectively, to the heights studied . The highest yield obtained by MST cycle was at the height of 60 cm, with an average of 4612.51 kg ha<sup>-1</sup>and 3566 kg ha<sup>-1</sup> to 30 cm height. However the heights of 30 and 45 cm three cycles of grazing and only two to the height of 60 cm were obtained, totaling about it, 12.4, 10.7 and 9.2 t DM ha<sup>-1</sup> in the period.In leaf/stem ratio, no differences in heights studied. The number of tillers did not change with different heights, the superiority in the number of tillers was observed in the middle of the growing season. The increase in sward height provided no change in CP content and digestibility and increased levels of ADF, NDF was changed only at the height of 60 cm.

title: Performance of Gir young bull maintained in "Brachiaria brizantha" pastures submitted to different management

description: This research aimed to evaluate the effect of protein and energy supplementation and different herbage allowances (OF) during the rainy season, on the weight gain of Gir young bulls grazing Brachiaria brizantha maintained in a rotational grazing system. Evaluated forage allowance and chemical composition of Brachiaria brizanthapasture. We used 24 Gir young bulls with an average weight of 223kg, distributed in a randomized block design in a split plot scheme, treatments was distributed in plots, and periods in subplots, with six replications. Treatments were not supplemented (SS) young bull grazing in pasture with 4.0% of forage allowance (SS + 4% FA); supplementation with 0.5% body weight (SO) and 4.0% of FA (SO + 4.0 % FA); supplementation with 0.5% body weight and 3.5% FA (SO + 3.5% FA) and supplementation with 0.5% body weight and 4.5% FA (SO + 4.5% FA). During the rainy season, the young bulls weight gain increased (P &lt;0.05) in response to supplementation (0.848, 0.813 and 0.905kg/ day), respectively in the animals of the S0 + 4% OF; SO + 3.5 and SO OF% OF + 4.5, compared to those not supplemented (0.567kg/day). Animals of the SO+ 4.5% OF showed higher gain compared to the SO + 4.0% OF and SO + 3.5% OF. Pasture management strategies and supplementation did not affect the forage chemical composition (P&gt;0.05).

title: Chemical attributes in soil and production of "Cynodon dactylon" cv. Tierra Verde on doses of organic biofertilizer

description: The concentration of nutrients in plant is related to the soil, fertilization, climate, season, cultivar and cultural practices. Aiming to evaluate the soil chemical properties, the dry matter production of shoots and roots, nutrient content in the plant and the chemical composition of the grass Tierra Verde subjected to levels of organic biofertilizer as nitrogen source, an experiment was conducted in a greenhouse at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine , UNESP, Araçatuba-SP, January-September 2010. Treatments were arranged in a completely randomized design with six fertilized biofertilizer doses (0, 33, 66, 132, 264, 528 m<sup>3</sup>ha<sup>-1</sup>) and five repetitions for three cuts. We used the model split plot, with doses of biofertilizer considered as main treatments and cuts as sub-plots. We obtained a linear response in the production of dry mass of shoots and roots to the dose of 528 m<sup>3</sup>ha<sup>-1</sup> of organic biofertilizer. Nitrogen fertilization influenced the soil chemical properties and levels of organic matter, sulfur, boron and manganese, and in foliar levels of phosphorus, potassium and copper. The chemical composition was not altered by the influence of organic biofertilizer doses applied to the soil.

title: Genetic group and parity order on productive and reproductive performance of sows

description: The objective of this paper was toevaluate the effect of genetic group (GG) and parity order (PO) of 400 sows on productive and reproductive traits. Were used three GG (GG1, GG2 and GG3) and two PO (PO1 and PO2). The dependent variables evaluated were litter weight at birth (LWB), litter weight at weaning (LWW), litter size at birth (LSB), litter size at weaning (LSW), lactation length (LL), number of litters/female / year (L/F/Y), number of piglets weaned / female / year (P/W/F), daily weight gain of each piglet (DWG), average daily gain of piglets (ADGP), weaning to estrus interval (WEI), average non-productive days (ANP) and number of services per conception (NSPC). The interaction between GG and PO was significant for LWW, LL, L/F/Y, DWG, WEI e ANP. For the other variables (LWB, LSB, LSW and P/W/F) no interaction or effect of GG and PO was observed. There was effect of GG independent of PO in the variables except ADGP and NSPC. The GG 3 was considered superior, since it showed better performance in relation to others in most of characteristics evaluated. It was not possible to determine the best PO, because this varied according to GG and the dependents variables.

title: Ammonia volatilization losses in Tanzania grass fertilized with urea

description: Gaseous losses are the main factors affecting the efficiency of nitrogenous fertilizers in pastures. To evaluate NH<sub>3</sub>-N volatilization losses in Tanzania grass fertilized with urea in autumn, spring and summer, a completely randomized design with repeated measurements over time and fifteen replicates was used. Plots were represented by urea levels (50; 100 and 150 kg ha<sup>-1</sup> N) and subplots by time after fertilization (1; 2; 3; 6; 9; 12 and 15 days). The interaction between fertilization leveland time after urea application was significant for the accumulated NH<sub>3</sub>-N volatilization. Urea application leads to higher percentage N losses in the first three days after application. The average cumulative NH<sub>3</sub>-N loss for the three occasions (different seasons of the year) was 28%, 20% and 16% of N applied for fertilizer doses of 50; 100 and 150 kg ha<sup>-1</sup>of N, respectively. The season of the year influenced NH<sub>3</sub>-N loss pattern and volume, with the lowest values recorded in spring, followed by summer and autumn. The cumulative NH<sub>3</sub>-N volatilization loss varies from 78 to 90% up to the third day after application of the total N-NH3 loss.

title: Simulation of the conditions of use of quaternary ammonium in samples of "Salmonella" Hadar isolated from poultry carcasses

description: Biosafety measures are adopted in order to avoid the spreading of pathogenic microorganisms along the poultry chain, with disinfection being a mandatory procedure and the chemical compound benzalkonium chloride (quaternary ammonium) widely used for this purpose. Due to the fact that part of the farming in Brazil is located in areas with a great thermal amplitude, which is also the case among the different areas and sections of slaughterhouses, we performed an experiment to verify the activity of this disinfectant, simulating conditions of use with 33 Salmonella Hadar isolates. Using the test suspension, the inactivation of the bacteria was monitored under different concentrations (100 and 200 ppm), temperatures (20 ± 2 ºC and 8 ± 2 ºC), organic matter loading (1 and 3 %) and contact times (5, 10 and 20 minutes). As a result, all isolates in the two concentrations and organic loading were inactivated at 20 ± 2 ºC after a contact time of 5 minutes. At a temperature of 8 ± 2 ºC, the disinfectant’s activity was affected, with bacterial isolates surviving under all adverse variables (33,3% in front of 100 ppm and 6,1% in front of 200 ppm). Under the conditions of the experiment, our conclusion is that benzalkonium chloride was able to inactivate all isolates of the Salmonella serovars found and, therefore, it can be used in disinfection procedures. However, a low room temperature is a factor that limits indicating its use.
