title: Photoassimilates partitioning in okra plants subjected to nitrogen doses

description: ABSTRACT Nitrogen (N) is the third nutrient more absorbed by okra. Therefore, an adequate supply of this element is essential for okra growth through the accumulation of dry matter in the leaves, stem, root and fruit. The objective was to evaluate the influence of N doses on growth, photoassimilates partition and yield of okra. The experiment was carried out in a Red-Yellow Argisol. A randomized complete block design with four replicates was used. The treatments consisted of N doses applied as topdressing (0, 60, 120, 240, 360 kg/ha). Samples of plants were held at 60, 75, 90, 105, 120, 135, 150 and 165 DAS for determination of the plant’s dry weight. The plant showed slow growth until 70 days, and after that time, intensified its growth until the end of the cycle. Total dry mass and absolute plant growth rate increased with increasing N availability, reaching the maximum marketable fruit yield of 10,665 kg/ha with 346 kg/ha N. The growth and partition of photoassimilates among the organs of the okra plant ‘Santa Cruz’ are altered with increasing nitrogen availability applied in topdressing.

title: AGEISM, RADIO AND PANDEMIC CRISIS: Spanish generalist radio during the lockdown

description: One of the main focuses of journalistic interest during the COVID-19 pandemic crisis has been the high number of deaths in the population sector over 65 years of age. The objective is to analyze the informative treatment of the subject during the first wave of the pandemic by the main Spanish radio stations. Under the framework of Age Studies, the mode of representation and the presence of old age in the programming of the four main general radio stations during four fundamental days of confinement are analyzed. The four selected generalist radio stations have got the highest audience according to the latest General Media Study, with a total of 74 editions, corresponding to 27 programs and 229 hours of radio, of the most representative spaces from SER, COPE, Onda Cero and Radio Nacional España. The main conclusion is the existence of positive ageism, both in representation and in the presence of the subject.

title: Political communication in the digital environment: an analysis of the 2020 municipal election campaigns on Facebook

description: Abstract In this article, we analyze the official campaigns of the candidates for city halls of all Brazilian state capitals in 2020 on Facebook. Using descriptive statistical techniques and frame analysis, we observe the best performing actors and narratives on the network and their main characteristics, such as positioning on the political spectrum, frames, alignments, and communication resources. Our results show the reaction of leftists on the social network following the 2018 elections, analyzing the posts on the profiles of small parties, which used the platform mainly to discuss the wider political conjuncture and identity issues. However, negative campaign practices and giving priority to themes with subjective appeal, such as family and religion, remained a trend, especially among pages supporting Bolsonaro, the most referenced politician during the election.

title: Distribution of public offices, political context, and Brazilian presidentialism: an institutional analysis of the discretionary system

description: Abstract This paper analyses the development of the discretionary system of bureaucratic positions in Brazil. On the one hand, the research literature relates the allocation of public offices to the coalitional presidential system. On the other hand, this literature pointed out initiatives aiming to professionalise the bureaucracy and strengthen state careers. In this context, the presidential dilemmas refer to choosing between seeking support from the coalition by appointing party members and controlling public policies by nominating individuals aligned with the president’s preferences. In this article, theories of institutional change are the main theoretical framework for analysing the progression of rules on appointments to public offices and their impacts on the portraits of nominees. Through a case study of Brazil, the paper assesses the congruence between theoretical predictions and empirical evidence regarding the relationship between institutions and the distribution of public sector posts. The methodology comprises bibliographic research, documental analysis, and descriptive statistics. The documentary search concentrated on the rules regarding the presidential coordination bodies and compulsory percentages of appointed career civil servants. The results demonstrated that the laws were not effective as federal public bodies did not comply with the rules. Furthermore, the quantity of career civil servants in discretionary public offices was already high before the establishment of compulsory percentages. The role of coordination bodies varied across the different administrations. Despite the centralisation of presidential power, evidence points out that public managers are partially free to choose their staff and only sometimes comply with the legal requirements. Thus, the conclusions reinforce the need to include informal institutions in further analysis. Besides promoting a contextual description of Brazil, the paper contributes to theory-testing and theory-building on the relationship between institutions and the distribution of public offices.

title: CORPORATE URBANISM AND TENSIONS AROUND THE RIGHT TO THE CITY: the Horto Bela Vista enterprise (Salvador/BA)

description: Corporate production of Brazilian cities takes place under commodification conditions of human space, associated with socio-spatial segregation, real estate speculation, and capture of the collective and public dimension of cities. In response, citizens have mobilized strategies to defend the right to the city, including the legal system. This paper sought to analyze the applicability and effectiveness of law and urban tools in minimizing socio-spatial impacts, using the Horto Bela Vista (HBV) project, at the Cabula neighborhood, Salvador, Bahia, as a case study. Data were collected by means of bibliographical and documental research, particularly on the case at the Public Prosecutor’s Office of the State of Bahia. Results show that, despite of the importance of the reparations and compensations achieved, the tools used present limited effectiveness, and are tensioned both from the perspective of corporate urbanism and the right to the city.

title: THE SHATTERING OF THE LEFT CONSENSUS IN THE BRAZILIAN PARLIAMENT: from the 1988 Constituent Assembly to the rise of Jair Bolsonaro in 2018

description: The work aims to verify how a supposed “left consensus” presented in the Brazilian Parliament since the Constituent Assembly of 1988 has appeared in recent years. Through the confrontation of research results that adopt methodologies based on the self-declaration of the parties, on the opinion of experts, and on the perception of the electorate, one concludes that there was a clear disruption of the so-called “right self-repression”, mainly after the rise of Dilma Rousseff, in 2010, and after the great protestations in June 2013, reaching Jair Bolsonaro election in 2018.

title: Root canal microbiota as an augmented reservoir of antimicrobial resistance genes in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients

description: Abstract Antimicrobial resistance is a global public health problem. Root canal microbiota associated with apical periodontitis represents a well-known reservoir of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs). However, the effect of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in this reservoir is unknown. This study aimed to establish if root canal microbiota associated with apical periodontitis in T2DM patients is an augmented reservoir by identifying the prevalence of nine common ARGs and comparing it with the prevalence in nondiabetic patients. Methodology This cross-sectional study included two groups: A T2DM group conformed of 20 patients with at least ten years of living with T2DM and a control group of 30 nondiabetic participants. Premolar or molar teeth with pulp necrosis and apical periodontitis were included. A sample was collected from each root canal before endodontic treatment. DNA was extracted, and ARGs were identified by polymerase chain reaction. Results tetW and tetM genes were the most frequent (93.3 and 91.6%, respectively), while ermA was the least frequent (8.3%) in the total population. The distribution of the ARGs was similar in both groups, but a significant difference (p&lt;0.005) was present in ermB, ermC, cfxA, and tetQ genes, being more frequent in the T2DM group. A total of eighty percent of the T2DM patients presented a minimum of four ARGs, while 76.6% of the control group presented a maximum of three. Conclusions Root canal microbiota associated with apical periodontitis in T2DM patients carries more ARGs. Therefore, this pathological niche could be considered an augmented reservoir.

title: Between procedure and substance: political participation and the meanings of democracy

description: Abstract Among the literature on political culture and participatory experiences, participation has commonly been related to democratic values and the deepening of democracy. However, there is still an explanatory gap regarding how activists from different sectors of civil society think about and conceive democracy. Anchored in the question, “How do people with different trajectories of activism understand democracy?”, this article aims to provide a theoretical and empirical explanation of how citizens with different participatory experiences understand democracy and, alternatively, how they conceive non-democratic regimes. Based on analysis of the conversations produced by focus groups held in Belo Horizonte, Porto Alegre, and Montes Claros, from March to September 2019, the article will demonstrate how understandings about democracy vary depending on the profile and the links of the participants.

title: Public opinion in Twitter. Analysis during the electoral race in the Colombian capital city

description: Abstract In Colombia, electoral polls have been losing credibility, so rigorous monitoring and analysis of social networks during an electoral campaign could be a way of predicting election results. Which indicators of public opinion on social networks determine a candidate´s triumph? The research that comprises this article traced on Twitter some key theoretical components of public opinion that could accurately anticipate the winner during the electoral process in Bogotá. Using ATLAS.Ti, our research efforts coded posts on candidates’ pages to generate data for our analysis. It was possible to identify seven (7) public opinion indicators that in an aggregated way coincide with electoral results. Likes on Facebook or Twitter were most effective in anticipating the candidate elect. The originality of this research is based on its methodology for analyzing content posted on Twitter and the innovation of including feelings and moods as important aspects of attitudes, the deepest component of public opinion. Our research results validate public opinion theory and its inner components. Survey agencies must adjust their methods to preserve credibility.
