Association of allelic variation in xylem genes with wood properties inEucalyptus nitens

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Summary We used association studies to identify allelic variation in genes that influence wood fibre development in Eucalyptus nitens (Deane & Maiden). Genes selected for analysis were differentially expressed in wood with contrasting properties such as cellulose and lignin content, pulp yield and microfibril angle (MFA). Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified by sequencing the candidate genes in a number of unrelated individuals. Selected SNPs were genotyped across 420 unrelated E. nitens trees from central Victorian populations and growing in a provenance trial at Meunna in north-western Tasmania. Significantly associated SNPs were genotyped across two other populations in northern Tasmania in order to validate associated SNPs. We have compiled a database of phenotypic information relating particularly to wood fibre properties for each individual in the association and validation populations. Associations between SNPs and wood properties were identified by comparing trait means in different SNP genotype classes. Several significantly associated SNPs identified in the Meunna population were validated in the other populations. The direction of the allele effect was reversed for two SNPs that were associated with kraft pulp yield. DNA markers identified in this research may be used to complement existing selection methods in breeding programs.
An analysis of attitudes towards the comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan using market segmentation

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

Manipulation of water systems in south Florida have created hundreds of miles of canals, dams, and other diversions. These efforts significantly altered the region?s hydrology and introduced unanticipated changes into the ecosystem. In 2000, the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP) was authorized to restore, protect, and preserve these wetlands. Because CERP is the product of negotiated compromise between divergent interests, public outreach and involvement serves an important role. Using data collected from a telephone survey of south Florida residents (n = 1,806), four segments were derived to assist managers understand the public?s support of the restoration plan. Results show that most respondents (n = 984) had no awareness of the plan. Differing demographic and psychographic profiles of segments suggest that varied communication strategies are necessary to promote CERP to each subgroup. Using marketing principles, a prioritization schema is constructed to assist managers communicate with the public.
Calculation and Optimization of Cable Connector Electric Field Intensity in High Speed Rail Based on Finite Element

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

When high speed rail run at high altitudes, over-voltage occurred in the process of operating makes the air gap of cable connector breakdown. It is necessary to clear the electric field intensity distribution and its numerical size of cable connector to make an optimization in order to curb this phenomenon. For this reason, 1:1 finite element model is established by the use of ANSYS software, and the simulation results show that the maximum value of the electric field intensity of cable connector can reach 644.05 kV/m. The maximum electric field is reduced with adding an insulating jacket to the head of cable connector. When the thickness of the insulating jacket is respectively 3 mm, 5 mm, 7 mm, 10 mm, the maximum electric field intensity percentage decreased is 10.26%, 11.4%, 16.1%, and 16.7%. So the insulating jacket would be an effective measure to inhibiting the breakdown of the air gap at the cable connector.
Evaluation of Maryland Backyard Flocks and Biosecurity Practices

Field: Veterinary (Health Sciences)

Domesticated poultry are susceptible to infectious and zoonotic diseases and can serve as a transmission source to other bird and human populations. In recent years, the number of noncommercial poultry has been on the rise in the United States. To evaluate potential risks of this growing population, a descriptive epidemiologic survey was conducted among Maryland backyard flocks. Owner and flock demographics were characterized as well as management practices such as husbandry, human-to-bird interaction, bird exposure risks, poultry health status, and biosecurity. Data from the 41 returned questionnaires indicated a median flock size of 38 birds (range, 3-901). Chickens accounted for 86.5% of the reported birds overall. Just over half of the owners (51.2%) kept chickens only, with the remaining backyard flocks consisting of chickens, other gallinaceous species, waterfowl, or a combination. Of flocks with multiple species, 70.0% of owners did not keep them separate. Almost two thirds of owners (61.0%) had kept poultry for < or = 5 yr, with 44.0% of all flocks on free range. Over the past 2 yr, predation was the highest cause of specific mortality (57.1%) followed by disease (30.2%), unknown (8.7%), and injury (4.0%), and over half of owners (56.1%) reported signs of disease in their flock within the last 6 mo. Biosecurity practices were highly variable among flocks. Data from this study identified gaps in the disease prevention and biosecurity practices of backyard flocks. These results can be useful in developing educational extension and outreach programs as well as policies, in efforts to further mitigate the spread of diseases.
Laser-Driven Growth of Silver Nanoplates on p-Type GaAs Substrates and Their Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering Activity

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

Contact between aqueous solutions of silver nitrate (AgNO₃) and pristine surfaces of p-type gallium arsenide (GaAs) wafers results in essentially no reaction at room temperature and in the dark. The galvanic reactions between the GaAs wafers and AgNO₃ can be triggered under illumination of laser beams with power densities higher than a critical value (∼15 mW/cm² for a 630 nm laser), resulting in the growth of silver (Ag) nanoplates on the GaAs surface. The density and dimensions (including both thickness and edge length) of the resulting nanoplates can be readily tuned by controlling the growth time and laser power density. The as-grown Ag nanoplates on the substrates significantly enhance Raman signals of interesting molecules and serve as a new class of promising surface-enhanced Raman scattering substrates for sensitive chemical detection.
Evaluation of the clinical and aesthetic outcomes of Straumann® Standard Plus implants supported single crowns placed in non‐augmented healed sites in the anterior maxilla: a 5–8 years retrospective study

Field: Dentistry (Health Sciences)

Abstract Purpose To evaluate the long‐term aesthetic outcome of the single crowns supported by soft tissue level implants placed in healed sites in the anterior maxilla region via the pink aesthetic score ( PES ) and the white aesthetic score ( WES ). Material and methods According to the inclusion criteria, patients who had received a single Straumann ® Standard Plus implant in the anterior maxilla at the Shanghai 9th People's Hospital between 2005 and 2008 were invited for a re‐examination based on a number of inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria. Clinical, radiographic and aesthetic outcomes ( PES / WES ) were assessed during their revisit at 5–8 years after crown placement. Results Forty‐five patients were enrolled in the study. All 45 implants were successfully integrated and most of the implants did not show signs of peri‐implant disease at the time of the assessment. The marginal bone resorption was 1.10 ± 0.92 mm. The mean total PES was 8.48 ± 2.62 at the baseline, 9.57 ± 2.37 at the 6–10 months revisit and 9.01 ± 2.45 at the 5–8 years follow‐up. The scores of the mesial and distal papillae increased significantly between the baseline and 6–10 months follow‐up, this improvement remained stable at the 5–8 years follow‐up. The scores of soft tissue level, colour of the soft tissue, soft tissue texture and the alveolar process decreased significantly between the 6–10 months and 5‐8 years revisits. The mean WES was 7.83 ± 1.60 at the baseline and 7.72 ± 1.43 at the 5–8 years revisit. There was no significant difference of the WES between the baseline and 5–8 years revisit. Conclusion The possibility of spontaneous papillae regeneration after implant treatment and the long‐term stability of the regenerated papillae were confirmed. However, recession of the facial soft tissue has been found. The incidence of the recession at thin biotype sites tended to be higher.
Exchange Rate Passthrough to Export Prices: Assessing Cross‐Country Evidence*

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

Abstract A growing empirical literature reports evidence of a decline in exchange rate passthrough to import prices in a number of industrial countries. Our paper complements this literature by examining passthrough from the other side of the transaction; that is, we assess the exchange rate sensitivity of export prices (denominated in the exporter's currency). We find that the prices charged on exports to the United States are more responsive to the exchange rate than are export prices to other destinations, which is consistent with results in the literature that import price passthrough in the US market is relatively low. In addition, the exchange rate sensitivity of export prices over time has been significantly affected by country‐ and region‐specific factors, including the Asian financial crisis (for emerging Asia), deepening integration with the United States (for Canada), and the effects of the 1992 ERM crisis (for the United Kingdom).
Terrorism Aspects of Islamic State and Its possibility of Terrorism against South Korea

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Islamic State(IS) which has around 30,000 members including foreigner jihadist from 100 countries since 2013 has fought with US-led international allies, and committed terrorism such as beheading and burning to death, it has become the subject of concern and fear from the people all over the world. Especially, IS has spread extremism ideology through Social Medias such as Twitter, SNS and made one Korean, Kim(18) join as a member in January of this year, and there was an attack in Korean Embassy located at Libya in April of this year. Like these, as IS is becoming Korea's direct threat, we need to make countermeasures after minute assessing on IS's possibility of attacking against Korea. Therefore, this study was carry out to serve as a basis for providing the countermeasures. That is, I researched about a study if there is a possibility of IS attacking against Korea, then if there is a possibility, where the main targets could be. To this end, first found out about the terrorism aspects such as the origin of IS, status. Based on it, after evaluating the possibility of attacking against Korea, the result showed that it is not a few that there could be a terrorism in Korea from following force of IS and there was a high possibility of attacking Korean facilities and Koreans from IS or IS branch in overseas. Vulnerable factors to terrorism are western facility all over the country, swarm facility, VIP, aircraft, overseas Korean missionaries, correspondent, corporate facility and businessman in abroad, diplomat. Possible terrorism types are usually explosive, firearms, poison, abduction in Korea, and abduction, murder of VIP, attack on Korean facility such as Korean embassy in abroad. The policy implications and the limitations were discussed at the last part of the research.

Retail Supply Chain Management Trends

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

Improving the organization's performance and securing competitive advantage over others greatly depends on the supply chain management as it is seen that the competition is no longer between the organizations, rather they are amongst supply chains. This study is based on collecting the information and data about the supply chain management from 60 retail organizations. This study will show the aspects of supply chain management in the retail domain highlighting the challenges, capabilities and the priorities for the next 2-3 years. As retailers choose to concentrate either on product leadership private-label or high touch customer intimacy or on cost leadership strategies, their supply chain priorities and investment decisions are tailored to the specific requirements. While retail is extremely diverse, but retailers across the globe share many priorities — balance the availability of the inventory; control the costs and customer service in order to maintain the retail strategy. Our effort has been to explore how retailers are managing these priorities and getting ready for future.
Cropsey, Joseph (1919–2012)

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Abstract Joseph Cropsey received his graduate training in economics at Columbia University. While teaching economics at City College of New York (1946–58), he met Leo Strauss, then teaching political philosophy at the New School for Social Research. Cropsey moved to the department of political science at the University of Chicago in 1958, joining Strauss who had gone there in 1949. They contributed to and edited their now‐famous History of Political Philosophy (1962). After Strauss's death in 1973, Cropsey edited a third edition of this book (1987), which included for the first time articles on Husserl, Heidegger, and Strauss himself. Cropsey's influence can be measured in part by the hundreds of undergraduates he taught and by the 134 dissertation committees (76 as chair) on which he served.
Survey and Analysis of the Current Status of Wild Banana Resources Distributed in Tropical Area of Yunnan

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

A survey was made of the resources of wild bananas which represent all species of the genus Musa in the tropical area of Yunnan Province, China. Musa acuminata Colla, M. itinerans Cheesman, M. paracoccinea AZ. Liu et DZ. Li, and M. coccinea Andrews were found distributed in the southeast of Yunnan; M. acuminata, M. balbisiana Colla, M. itinerans, M. rubra Wallich ex Kurz, and M. coccinea in the south of Yunnan; Musa acuminata, M. balbisiana, M. itinerans, M. rubra, M. coccinea, M. sanguinea Hooker, and M. nagensium D. Prain in the southwest of Yunnan. This implies that the southwest region of Yunnan may be the diversity center of the wild banana of Musa in China. It was also found that there were some communities of M. itinerans in the south of Yunnan. It is proposed that the communities of M. itinerans be conserved in situ and the other species conserved ex-situ. M. acuminata and M. balbisiana are both the ancestors of the present major cultivars and shall be listed as endangered plants for key conservation.
Photon and neutrino-pair emission from circulating quantum ions

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

The recent proposal of photon and neutrino pair beam is extensively\ninvestigated. Production rates, both differential and total, of single photon,\ntwo-photon and neutrino-pair emitted from quantum ions in circular motion are\ncalculated for any velocity of ion. This part is an extension of our previous\nresults at highest energies to lower energies of circulating ions, and helps\nmuch to identify the new process at a low energy ion ring. We clarify how to\nutilize the circulating ion for a new source of coherent neutrino beam despite\nof much stronger background photons. Once one verifies that the coherence is\nmaintained in the initial phases of time evolution after laser irradiation,\nlarge background photon emission rates are not an obstacle against utilizing\nthe extracted neutrino pair beam.\n
The Caldwell County Project: Creating a Usable Past

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

INITIATED IN 1976, the Caldwell County Tri-Cultural Oral History Project received its primary financial support from successive grants from the Emergency School Aid Act (ESAA), with supplementary funding from the Texas Commission on the Arts and Humanities and the National Endowment for the Arts.? In retrospect, the initial ESAA grant seems rather unusual. As its name implies, ESAA normally supports schools and school-based programs, but in 1976 its directors chose to support a project in community education. The reasons for ESAA's involvement clearly relate to interethnic group relationships in Caldwell County, though these circumstances are in no way peculiar to central Texas.

Perancangan Arsitektur Sistem Informasi Tugas Akhir dan Skripsi Berbasis Website di Universitas Ma’soem

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

One of the activities at Ma'soem University is the Registration of Final Projects for Diploma Three (D3) students and Thesis for Undergraduate students (S1). Currently, the registration process for the Final Project and Thesis is still done manually, where students must come directly to the campus to register, pay and fill out the title submission form. Meanwhile, for the preparation of seminar schedules, honoraria and final and thesis report, data processing is still using Ms. Excel. From these activities, several obstacles were found regarding information on Final Projects and Thesis, including: 1. Limited payment and registration services for Final Projects and Thesis, which can only be served on campus during working hours and days from Monday to Saturday 07.30 to 21.30 WIB. 2. Filling in the Final Project and Thesis forms manually, there is a risk of damage and loss of data. 3. Do not have a database yet, so that it is difficult to validate data on the same Final Project Title and Thesis submitted by students. 4. The process of making seminar and final project honorarium reports and thesis sessions takes a long time, and cannot be generated automatically. In this study, the system development method used is the OOAD (Object Oriented Analysis and Design) method with the RUP (Rational Unified Process) model, which consists of several stages, namely: Business Modeling, Requirments, Analysis and Design, Implementation, Test, Deployment. As for the system development tools using UML (Unified Modeling Language) which consists of: Use Case Diagrams, Activity Diagrams and Class Diagrams. With the design of the information system architecture of this Final Project and Thesis, it produces a blueprint that can: Provide payment and registration services for Final Projects and Theses that are not limited by space and time, minimize the occurrence of damage and data loss, make it easier to validate submissions for the title of Final Project the same and can facilitate the process of making seminar and final project honorarium reports and thesis reports so that they can be generated automatically.

Rank, Community and Audience: the Social Range of Women’s Poetry

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The social and economic structures and perceptions of the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries were in some ways very different from ours. They are difficult to describe not only because they are alien, and because they varied from one place and community to another, but also because they were undergoing major change. In reading the women poets of the time we therefore need to be particularly wary of any rush to assimilate their constructions to our own. Women poets of earlier centuries often began to be rediscovered and anthologized in the later twentieth century as part of an explicitly feminist quest for subversive foremothers and role models, which attached particular value to elements that could be construed as resistance to gender and class oppression. Thanks to such advocacy, seventeenth- and eighteenth-century women poets have swiftly become an established part of the literary landscape, and it is now possible to think in terms of a wider and deeper contextualization of their writing, moving debate beyond the well-established anthology pieces and attempting to read these women poets not only in relation to modern agendas but also in relation to the specific social and economic issues and assumptions of their times.1
Evaluation of Acaricides Applied by Air-Blast Sprayer to Texas Citrus, 1993

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Abstract The acaricides, TD 2336 and BAS 300 1II, were compared to the standard Vendex for efficacy against CRM. Treatments were randomly assigned to plots of 6 trees each and replicated 4 times in an 8-yr-old grapefruit grove on 15 × 28 ft spacing. Treatments were applied on 1 Jul utilizing a commercial FMC 1229 FTM air blast sprayer with speed, nozzling and pressure (135 psi) adjusted to apply 250 gal/acre. At each evaluation date, 4 fruit per tree (24/replicate) were randomly selected at arms length inside the canopy and examined in situ with a 10X handlens. All live CRM were counted in two, 1-cm2 lens fields on the shaded side of each fruit. The two counts per fruit were combined and recorded as one observation.
