Impact of the D genome and quantitative trait loci on quantitative traits in a spring bread wheat by spring durum wheat cross

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Desirable agronomic traits are similar for common hexaploid (6X) bread wheat (Triticum aestivum, 2n = 6x = 42, genome, AABBDD) and tetraploid (4X) durum wheat (T. turgidum durum, 2n = 4x = 28, genome, AABB). However, bread and durum wheat are genetically isolated from each other due to an unequal number of genomes that cause sterility when crossed. Previous work allowed identification of a 6X and 4X parent that when crossed resulted in a large number of recombinant progeny at both ploidy levels. In this study, interspecific recombinant inbred line populations at both 4X and 6X ploidy with 88 and 117 individuals, respectively, were developed from a cross between Choteau spring wheat (6X) and Mountrail durum wheat (4X). Lines within each population contained a mixture of alleles from each parent for loci in the A and B genomes. The presence of the D genome in the 6X population resulted in increased yield, tiller number, and seed size. The D genome also resulted in a decrease in stem solidness, lower test weight and fewer seed per spike. Similar results were found with a second RIL population containing 152 lines from 18 additional 6X by 4X crosses. Several additional QTL for agronomic and quality traits were identified in both the 4X and 6X populations. Positive durum alleles increasing kernel weight in hexaploids, on chromosomes 3B and 7A may be useful for introgression by bread wheat breeders.
Investigating the Reliability of the AfriTEC Model During the Descending Phase of Solar Cycle 24 Across East Africa

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

This study investigates the reliability of the African Regional Ionospheric Total Electron Content (AfriTEC) model during the descending phase of Solar Cycle 24 (2016-2017) across East Africa. Using GNSS-derived TEC data from five equatorial and low-latitude stations MOIU, MAL2, ZAMB, ADIS, and MBAR the model's performance is assessed through statistical metrics, including Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and correlation coefficient r. Results indicate that the AfriTEC model effectively captures the diurnal and seasonal behavior of TEC, particularly during equinoxes, with MAE values generally below 1.5 TECU and correlation coefficients exceeding 0.80. However, discrepancies emerge during solstice periods and post-sunset hours, reflecting the model's limitations in representing complex ionospheric processes such as the Equatorial Ionization Anomaly (EIA). To benchmark its performance, AfriTEC is also compared against the widely used NeQuick model. AfriTEC demonstrates superior regional adaptability and reduced error under most conditions, though it remains sensitive to localized ionospheric disturbances. These findings suggest that while AfriTEC is a valuable tool for ionospheric modeling in whole Africa especially at East African sector, enhancements incorporating real-time solar and geomagnetic indices could further improve its predictive capabilities.
Relationship between Body Iron Stores and Non Scarring Diffuse Hair Loss in Non-Menopausal Women: A Case Control Study

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background: Because iron plays a physiological role in the hair cycle, iron deficiency (ID) may interfere with healthy hair development. Numerous research have looked into the connection between body iron status and hair loss, with varying degrees of success. In order to provide evidence for the significance of iron reserves in non-scarring diffuse hair loss in non-menopausal women, this study was conducted. The purpose of this study is to ascertain how diffuse, non-scarring hair loss in non-menopausal women relates to body iron reserves. Methods: At GSMCH, Ram Nagar (Rajpura), Patiala, Punjab, from March to November 2023, 40 women aged 15 years or older with diffuse hair loss (Female pattern hair loss (FPHL) / chronic telogen effluvium (CTE)) and 40 controls without any history or physical signs of hair loss participated in this controlled study. All of the subjects’ subjective hair loss was assessed using a same questionnaire. Hemoglobin and ferritin levels in the serum were used to evaluate the iron status. Descriptive and inferential statistical analysis using Mean ± stand-ard deviation, Chi-square, Fisher Exact test and Student t test. Results: Three groups were identified through analysis: “Excessive hair loss” (17.5%), “Moderate hair loss” (82.5%), and “Absence of hair loss” (0%). When comparing the incidence of ID (Serum ferritin <40g/L and Hb <12gd/L) in nonmenopausal women experiencing diffuse hair loss to controls, which was 22.5% (n = 9), there was a statistically significant increase among the women experiencing hair loss (n = 27). Conclusion: In non-menopausal women, diffuse hair loss is related to low iron storage. In the treatment of dis-ease, screening to determine these levels in cases of hair loss and supplementing with them when deficient are effective.
Elucidation of Nature of Gene Action and Combining Ability Associated with Economic Traits in Greengram [Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek]

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Background: Narrow genetic base and lack of exploitable variation have become a major constraint for yield improvement in greengram. Identifying genetically superior parents and breeding scheme to be adopted become a pre-requisite for the development of elite cultivars. Thereby, blending the knowledge on gene action and combining ability plays a key role. Materials: Combining ability analysis was carried out in twenty-five crosses derived out of Line x Tester mating design using 5 lines and 5 testers. The hybrids, parents and the check variety were evaluated in a RBD with two replications and ten quantitative characters were recorded. Result: Non-additive gene action was found to be prevalent for the quantitative traits observed. Exploring the per se and gca effects, COGG13-39 and VGG18-002 were adjudged as the best parents and the crosses involving above parents will be productive for synthesizing a dynamic population with superior recombinants. Meanwhile, exploring the per se, sca and heterosis, the best specific crosses identified for seed yield/plant and pods per plant were, V2709 x GAM5 and COGG13-39 x VGG16-058. They can be further exploited to obtain transgressive segregants for higher yield, bold seeds and bruchid resistance through appropriate breeding strategy.

Data from Protective Role for TWEAK/Fn14 in Regulating Acute Intestinal Inflammation and Colitis-Associated Tumorigenesis

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

<div>Abstract<p>Inflammatory bowel disease causes chronic, relapsing intestinal inflammation that can lead to the development of colorectal cancer. Members of the TNF superfamily are key regulators of intestinal inflammation. In particular, TNF-like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) and its receptor, Fn14, are involved in normal and pathologic intestinal tissue remodeling. In this study, we show that the TWEAK/Fn14 signaling complex plays a protective role during the acute stage of intestinal inflammation and contributes to the prevention of colitis-associated cancer during chronic inflammation through its proapoptotic effects. Colitis was induced in Fn14<sup>−/−</sup> and Fn14<sup>+/+</sup> wild-type littermates by administering 3% dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) for 7 days followed by 2-week recovery; azoxymethane (AOM) administration followed by two cycles of DSS/recovery was used to induce tumors. Reciprocal bone marrow chimeric mice were generated to compare hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic-specific effector tissues. Fn14<sup>−/−</sup> mice had enhanced susceptibility to colitis compared with Fn14<sup>+/+</sup> controls as assessed by endoscopic and histologic inflammatory scores, daily weight loss, and mortality rates during recovery after DSS administration. Bone marrow transfer experiments showed that both hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic components are involved in protection against colitis. Tumor lesions were found in the colons of most Fn14<sup>−/−</sup> mice, but not Fn14<sup>+/+</sup> controls. AOM/DSS administration enhanced susceptibility to tumorigenesis in Fn14<sup>−/−</sup> mice. Overall, these findings show that Fn14 plays a protective role during the acute stages of intestinal inflammation, and its absence promotes the development of colitis-associated cancer. <i>Cancer Res; 76(22); 6533–42. ©2016 AACR</i>.</p></div>
Time Series Analysis of Macroeconomic Conditions in Open Economies

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

Three macroeconomic issues are examined in separate self-contained studies. The first study tests the business cycle theory with application of an enhanced Augmented Dickey-Fuller test on the U.S. time series of real gross national product. Unlike previous studies, the null hypothesis of a unit root is rejected. The second study tests for IS-LM conditions in the U.S. during the post-Bretton Woods era by combining the Johansen's approach to cointegration with bootstrap algorithms. The estimated model produces a dynamic version of the IS-LM that permits short-term evaluations of fiscal and monetary policies. The third study seeks to explain the observed persistence in the Bolivan dollarization process. It is found that dollarization is now an irreversible process, with the Bolivian economy in transition toward equalization with U.S. prices and interest rates.
P1‐117: ASSOCIATION OF CENTRAL ARTERIAL STIFFNESS WITH HIPPOCAMPAL BLOOD FLOW, N‐ACETYL‐ASPARTATE AND ANXIETY IN HYPERTENSIVE DAHL SALT SENSITIVE RATS

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

Hypertension and diseases of the vascular wall contribute to dementia, including Alzheimer's disease. Central arterial stiffness (CAS) is known to be accelerated by systemic hypertension and may be accompanied by increased stiffness in the cerebral arteries. To study this, we used adult Dahl salt-sensitive (Dahl-S) rats which exhibit increased CAS, indexed by pulse wave velocity (PWV), and hippocampal memory decline as they develop a variable degree of moderate hypertension with age while on a normal salt diet. With this model, we sought to understand the link between CAS in the systemic circulation with a behavioral parameter like anxiety, and with hippocampal perfusion and neuronal density. Dahl-S rats (n=29; Charles River Laboratories) were fed with normal salt diet (0.5% NaCl) until 6 months, when the measurements of systolic blood pressure (SBP), PWV, open field test (OFT) and brain MRI were performed. Central and periphery rearing durations in OFT was conducted as a metric of anxiety. Hippocampal N-acetyl-aspartate (NAA) concentrations, a marker of neuronal density, and blood flow was collected with proton spectroscopy and continuous arterial spin labeling respectively. Six months old males Dahl-S rats displayed hypertension (SBP: 165±16 vs. 142±5 mmHg, 6-mo vs. 3-mo; mean±SD). Linear regression revealed a positive correlation between SBP and PWV (Figure 1). PWV was negatively correlated with cerebral perfusion in the hippocampus (Figure 2). Hippocampal CBF positively correlated with hippocampal NAA (Figure 3). Ratio of central rearing duration to total rearing duration positive correlated with hippocampal blood flow (Figure 4).
Shining Stars in the Dark Night: Sandplay With an Abused Adolescent

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

The author explores the sandplay process of a teenage male who had suffered from early abandonment as well as physical and sexual abuse. He was able to find his way guided by the symbolic light of the spontaneously and unconsciously produced inner image of the star to integrate dark and light aspects of his life experiences and personality. There was an internal growth of order, balance, organization, and self-regulation during this process. By the end of therapy, the client seemed to have developed an internal bridging of a deep psychological split and a new sense of direction.
Novel insight into molecular mechanism of endotoxin shock: biochemical analysis of LPS receptor signaling in a cell-free system targeting NF-κB and regulation of cytokine production/action through β2 integrin in vivo

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

Abstract Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a constituent of gram-negative bacteria cell wall, plays an essential role in the pathogenesis of septic shock by generating endogenous mediators such as cytokines, nitrous oxide, superoxide anions, and lipid mediators. In vitro, LPS induces the transcription of a set of genes involved in inflammatory reactions by activating several types of transcription factors, particularly nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB). An analysis of NF-κB activation using a cell-free system demonstrated that two pathways converge to activate NF-κB; one is staurosporine-sensitive, the other is staurosporine-insensitive and tyrosine kinase-dependent. Furthermore, the latter pathway culminates in IκBaL phosphorylation at serine/threonine residues in its carboxyl-terminal acidic region with dissociation of IκBα from NF-κB, thereby activating NF-κB. The requirement for the phosphorylation at this site was confirmed by the specific inhibition of NF-κB activation in a cell-free system by the synthetic peptide corresponding to this site. The in vivo administration of an anti-CD18 antibody prevented elevation of plasma tumor necrosis factor (TNF) levels and acute lethality induced by injection of a low dose of LPS into Propionibacterium acnes-primed rabbits or by the administration of a single high dose of LPS into animals. Anti-CD18 also prevented acute lethality induced by one of the main mediators of endotoxin shock, TNF-α. Furthermore, an antibody to a ligand for CD18, intercellular adhesion molecule-1, also prevented TNF-induced shock as well as endotoxin shock in rabbits. These observations suggest that the interaction between leukoytes and endothelium through β2. integrin adhesion molecules may be of primary importance in mediating LPS signals in vivo.
Numerical simulation of reliability of single-sided/double-sided package interconnect structure under temperature cyclic load

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to compare the single-sided packaging structure and double-sided packaging structure of high-power module and study the overall heat dissipation performance and reliability of the module. Design/methodology/approach In this paper, the single-sided packaging structure and double-sided packaging structure of power module are designed based on Wolfspeed products. This paper is analyzed by finite element method. First, the heat dissipation performance of single-sided packaging structure and double-sided packaging structure is analyzed; second, the deformation and stress of single-sided packaging structure and double-sided packaging structure are compared and analyzed; and finally, the cumulative plastic deformation of single-sided packaging and double-sided packaging structures are compared and analyzed, and the fatigue life of the structure is calculated based on the plastic deformation. Findings In the heat transfer simulation, under the same power input, the heat dissipation performance of single-sided packaging structure is not as good as that of double-sided packaging structure. Under the reliability simulation of the same temperature cycle standard, the maximum equivalent stress of single-sided packaging structure is lower than that of double-sided packaging structure, but the fatigue life prediction based on plastic strain shows that the fatigue life of double-sided packaging structure is not different from that of single-sided packaging structure. Originality/value This paper creatively simulates the thermal characteristics and reliability of single-sided packaging structure and double-sided packaging structure and proves the advantages of double-sided packaging structure compared with single-sided packaging structure from the aspects of heat transfer performance and reliability.

Epidemiological aspects of accidents in spiders State of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The objective of this paper is to evaluate epidemiological aspects of accidents caused by spiders in the state of Rio Grande do Sul with data from the Information System for Notifiable Diseases (Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação (Sinan). We analyzed, retrospectively, information about accidents caused by spiders in the stateof Rio Grande do Sul dating from the period between January 2001 and December 2006. The data was obtainedfrom the “Records of Accidents Caused by Poisonous Animals” for accidents that were treated and/or occurred inemergency units. There were 12,401 cases of accidents caused by spiders in the state of Rio Grande do Sul recordedin Sinan’s database for the period between 2001/2006. Most accidents were caused by spiders from the Loxoscelesgenus (1,429 cases). Regarding seasonality, the months between October and April had the highest incident rates.Most patients were males (59%) and the age groups most affected were those in their second and fifth decades of life.Regarding waiting time for treatment, 54% of the patients were treated within 3 hours. Classification regarding theseverity of poisoning was of 7,004 mild cases (56%), 3,482 moderate cases (28%), and 606 severe cases (5%). Thedata obtained allowed us to diagnose the need for epidemiological studies about accidents caused by spiders in thestate of Rio Grande do Sul, since there is little scientific production on this theme in the region.
Treatment of asthmatic patients sensitive to mites (Dermatophagoides farinae); a four-year study of immunotherapy with an extract of Dermatophagoides farinae.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Dermatophagoides farinae (D.F.) is considered by many to be one of the main allergens in house dust. The present report is a four-year study with an extract of D.F. in 518 patients with extrinsic asthma. The extract was clinically effective in 315 out of 474 patients (66.5%) after the first course of therapy (20 weeks). It was even better (P less than 0.001) after more than two courses (76.5%). About 10% of the patients become almost entirely asymptomatic. The individuals whose skin reactions decreased after treatment showed the best results (P less than 0.05). After therapy the skin reaction and degranulation of mast cells were inhibited. Side effects were mild and transient. The results suggest that immunotherapy with D. farinae might be an acceptable measure of treatment for many patients with extrinsic asthma.
Strategi Penerapan Warehouse 7S untuk Memaksimalkan Peran Komite 7S di XYZ Mini Sort Hub Bandung

Field: Decision Sciences (Social Sciences)

Abstract. The 7S approach was hampered in its implementation stage, this obstacle was caused by the 7S committee working less than optimally. The warehouse audit results obtained a score of 78.38% of the management target of 95%. The method for analyzing weak 7S variables uses the IPA (Important Performance Analysis) method. This method is based on the results of a questionnaire given to Ninja Xpress employees regarding the performance of the 7S committee. A questionnaire with open questions produces 26 statements of the 7S variable attributes. The 7S attributes were developed into a closed questionnaire. The results of the analysis produce a gap of -0.58, namely that employees really expect cleanliness and tidiness throughout the warehouse which is not fulfilled by the 7S committee. The weak attribute condition is depicted through a Cartesian degree diagram which is the output of the IPA method. The results of the analysis using the IPA method for attribute P6 are in quadrant A, which is the quadrant that must be paid attention to by the 7S committee for improvements. Improvement of weak attributes is carried out using the Six Sigma method. The results of the identification of the company still have many improvements that must be carried out by the 7S committee. The appropriate strategy for improvement steps is to carry out Improve and Control using check sheets that have been designed. Abstrak.
