Rhizobia inoculation increases pea grain yield: an overview and challenges

The aim of this study was to evaluate the contribution of inoculation with microorganisms, mainly rhizobia, on pea (Pisum sativum) production using a systematic literature review approach and a comparative analysis of grain yield to provide information to fill gaps in nontraditional regions of cultivation for this legume. A systematic search strategy was implemented, targeting papers published in scientific journals accessible through the Web of Science® (WoS) database spanning from January 1990 to April 2022. The search terms "Pisum sativum," "inoculation," and "strain" were used. The differences between the pea grain yields from plants inoculated with nitrogen-fixing microorganisms and those from noninoculated plants (control) were analyzed using thirteen field-scale studies. Overall, pea inoculation/coinoculation promoted a greater grain yield (3118 ±210 kg ha-1) than noninoculation (2338± 127 kg ha-1), showing the importance of biological nitrogen fixation for legume crop production. In the pursuit of reducing pea production costs, emphasis has been placed on inoculation, highlighting the importance of comprehending the symbiotic relationship between peas and Rhizobium. Furthermore, this research aimed to explore the interaction between Rhizobium and selected microorganisms known to enhance plant growth to identify optimal combinations to boost pea productivity.

Accuracy of spectral UV model calculations: 1. Consideration of uncertainties in input parameters

Even in idealized, clear sky conditions, spectral UV models need well‐specified input parameters such as solar zenith angle, pressure, ozone and aerosol optical depth to produce realistic results. UV models based on exact analytical methods are widely considered to be absolutely accurate with errors in results widely attributed to inaccurate input parameters. The uncertainties in the standard determinations of each input parameter were determined for the following methods of specifying each parameter: (1) ozone from satellites or ground‐based Dobson spectrometer measurements; (2) aerosol optical depth from sunphotometer measurements; (3) single‐scattering albedo; three different procedures using ground‐based spectrometer measurements and radiative transfer calculations were studied; (4) ground albedo; the determination of the ground albedo is achieved using satellite measurements, which have a resolution of some 100 km; ground‐based measurements may give some information about the albedo of the ground, but the albedo needed for radiative transfer calculations is a weighted average of the surrounding albedos. The resulting inaccuracies in UV calculations from errors in input parameters were simulated with the discrete ordinate method model by Stamnes et al . [1988] using the uncertainties specified above for the different input parameters. The simulations of the errors of the spectral UV calculations were carried out for each input parameter at 0°, 50°, and 80° zenith angle and analyzed at 305 and 380 nm. The overall maximum error may be determined by combining the different errors.

Keyword programming for TouchDevelop

This video demo features a new keyword programming environment for TouchDevelop, a popular touch-centric system for scripting mobile devices. The new environment allows users to simply enter a set of keywords, and its internal program synthesis engine automatically generates script snippets that most likely reflect the users' intent. Because the synthesis engine can be triggered anywhere in a script, it also exploits various contextual information, such as which variables/functions are in-scope, to guide the generation of snippets. Our new environment benefit both novice and experienced TouchDevelop users. It helps novice users to synthesize script snippets from keywords and explore unfamiliar TouchDevelop features. It also improves experienced users' productivity because they need to worry about fewer coding details and enter less code. The demoed feature has been released and deployed since TouchDevelop version 2.10.

Evaluation of management options for increasing the productivity of tropical savanna pastures. 3. Trees

The effect of killing trees upon the production and quality of native perennial grasses, Themeda triandra, Chrysopogon fallax, Sehima nervosum, and Sorghum plumosum, and oversown legumes from the genus Stylosanthes, was studied over 4 years at Katherine, in the semi-arid tropics of northwestern Australia. The pastures were either unfertilised or received low inputs of superphosphate, and for each fertility level were grazed at 3 stocking rates. At no time were legume yields affected by killing the trees but, in the first 3 years, the amount of grass was approximately twice as much when the trees were killed. During this period the mean grass yields declined 4-5 fold from about 2.2 t/ha. By the fourth year the advantage from tree killing upon grass yield was apparent only at the lowest stocking rates at each fertility level. Nitrogen concentrations of the grasses and legumes, with the exception of S. hamata, were increased 7 and 10% respectively above the mean annual values of 0.89 and 1.75% where the trees were killed, while the phosphorus and sulfur concentrations were not affected. Tree killing had no effect upon wet season liveweight gains during the last 2 years of the experiment. However, there were some benefits during the dry season when weight losses were lower for most treatments during the early dry season (June-September) and also lower for the lowest stocking rate treatment without fertiliser during the late dry season (October-November).

Women Entrepreneurs: Challenges and Opportunities in the Arab World, UAE Case

Despite numerous international agreements affirming the rights of women, a large proportion of women in the Arab are still more likely to be poor and illiterate compared to men. They usually have less access to elite positions, credit, promotion opportunities, training and development than men, are far less likely to be active in politics. This situation has can be attributed to societyâ€™s failure to acknowledge that the roles played by men and women in the society are not biologically determined but socially constructed, changeable and changing. In most cases, women play non-economic or less economical roles in the society leading to a state of backwardness. Ironically, women are vested with the responsibility of household issues, nutrition and childcare. They are also more active in environmental management.

Optical Grain Size Measurements: What is Being Measured? Comparative Study of Optical and EBSD Grain Sizes Determination in 2D Al Foil

Reflected light optical analysis and Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) analysis have been used to m easure grain sizes in 2D Al foil samples, annealed for different times. There are significant differences in the results of the two techniques. It is shown that in Al it is possible to detect boundaries in optical images down to a misorientation angle of 7-8º. Nevertheless, in most samples the critical angle of easy etching lies above 10º. The observed differences in grain size measurements between optical analysis and EBSD analysis can be largely attributed to three phenomena: (1) individual samples may behave slighty differently due to differences in the effectiveness of etching (2) the grain size is heterogeneous over large areas and (3) the effect of etching is not only a function of misorientation angle but also grain boundary plane. Despite these uncertainties, optical analysis seems to be reliable for analysis of processes in which mainly grain boundaries with misorientation angle of &gt; 10º are involved i.e. grain growth.

Gestion processuelle des résultatsÂ : une étude des dépenses de R&amp;D des entreprises françaises cotées

Two earnings management techniques are based on R&amp;D expenditures: (i) reducing R&amp;D spending and (ii) capitalization of R&amp;D spending. In this paper, we examine whether both techniques are used by French firms to meet earnings thresholds (zero earnings and prior year earnings). Firstly, we study each technique separately. Our results show that R&amp;D spending is capitalized in order to meet these thresholds, and managers reduce R&amp;D in order to meet them. We then investigate whether managers use the two earnings management techniques in a coordinated way, and show that they are used in combination. More precisely, these earnings management techniques are substitutes for each other: low use of one is balanced by greater use of the other. We contribute to the literature by showing an earnings management process in which managers combine more than one earnings management technique.

Current concepts for minimally invasive mitral valve repair.

Minimally invasive mitral valve repair is based on several procedural concepts. Recently, three of them have been intensively discussed: aortic occlusion strategy, use of Goretex-Neo-Chordae to repair mitral valve regurgitation and feasibility and efficacy of the minithoracotomy approach in mitral valve treatment of patients after previous cardiac surgery. Twenty years of experience in minimally invasive mitral valve repair have enabled high-volume centers to present valid data and give their recommendations. Transthoracic aortic clamping with ante- and retrograde cardioplegia in the primary setting and hypothermic fibrillation in reoperative setting are currently favoured means of myocardial protection. Neo-chordae concept of mitral valve repair has gained general recognition and has become the technique of choice for many surgeons. The excellent results of minimally invasive mitral valve repair must be considered whenever already available or any new transcatheter techniques are offered.

Monitoring of drawdown pattern during pumping in an unconfined physical aquifer model

Abstract In this study, we attempted to analyse a drawdown pattern around a pumping well in an unconfined sandy gravelly aquifer constructed in a laboratory tank by means of both experimental and numerical modelling of groundwater flow. The physical model consisted of recharge, aquifer and discharge zones. Permeability and specific yield of the aquifer material were determined by Dupuit approximation under steady‐state flow and stepwise gravitational drainage of groundwater, respectively. The drawdown of water table in pumping and neighbouring observation wells was monitored to investigate the effect of no‐flow boundary on the drawdown pattern during pumping for three different boundary conditions: (i) no recharge and no discharge with four no‐flow boundaries (Case 1); (ii) no recharge and reservoir with three no‐flow boundaries (Case 2); (iii) recharge and discharge with two no‐flow boundaries (Case 3). Based on the aquifer parameters, numerical modelling was also performed to compare the simulated drawdown with that observed. Results showed that a large difference existed between the simulated drawdown and that observed in wells for all cases. The reason for the difference could be explained by the formation of a curvilinear type water table between wells rather than a linear one due to a delayed response of water table in the capillary fringe. This phenomenon was also investigated from a mass balance study on the pumping volume. The curvilinear type of water table was further evidenced by measurement of water contents at several positions in the aquifer between wells using time domain reflectometry (TDR). This indicates that the existing groundwater flow model applicable to an unconfined aquifer lacks the capacity to describe a slow response of water table in the aquifer and care should be taken in the interpretation of water table formation in the aquifer during pumping.

Terminal tracheal cells of Drosophila are immune privileged to maintain their Foxo-dependent structural plasticity

Respiratory organs fulfill several tasks, of which gas exchange is the most important. This function is also true for the Drosophila respiratory organ, the tracheal system, in which the tracheal terminal cells (TTCs), the functional equivalents of the mammalian lung’s alveoli, are the structures where gas exchange occurs. To cope with the plethora of inhaled bacteria, fungi, and viruses, the trachea, like all airway organs, developed a sophisticated innate immune system to protect its large surface area. Bacterial infection of the Drosophila larval tracheal system induced a robust immune response throughout the entire airway epithelium, except for the TTCs that lacked this response. TTCs do not express the membrane-associated peptidoglycan recognition receptor PGRP-LC, which we assume protects these susceptible cells from Immune deficiency (Imd) pathway activation and JNK- mediated cell death. Thus, TTCs can be considered an immune-privileged cell type compared to the rest of the tracheal tissue. Targeted overexpression of PGRP-LCx in these cells led to a significant reduction in branching, cell damage, and ultimately cell death, which depletion of AP-1 or foxo could rescue. We hypothesize that the structural plasticity of TTCs in response to nutritional cues and hypoxia is incompatible with a potent immune function. Both reactions, the structural plasticity, and the immune response, require the transcription factor foxo, and we showed that it is essential for structural plasticity. Thus, the immune-privileged status of TTCs is (presumably) a mechanism that ensures normal TTC function.

Environmental factors influence on leeches distribution in the middle reaches of the Irtysh River

The Irtysh River is a transboundary watercourse that exhibits a wide range of climatic conditions, environments and ecological niches. As a result of the technogenic impact of industrial enterprises on surface and underground waters all the main tributaries of the middle reaches of the river Irtysh are in different degrees of pollution. Due to the impact of sewage and other wastes from the mining and metallurgical industry, in the waters of the river basin Irtysh the concentration excess of a number of toxic metals is observed. Among the invertebrates used to assess the state of natural waters, representatives of the Annelida type are often used. Since annelids are among the most common organisms on Earth, this makes it possible to study them in many regions and to assess the specificity of the impact and compare the impact of various pollutants in similar natural and climatic zones. It is known that the distribution of freshwater leeches is largely determined by natural and climatic conditions, landscape characteristics and the specifics of trophic connections, etc. In this case, the most important parameters are the physicochemical properties of water. This paper provides information on the factors influencing the species composition and structural indicators of leech communities living in the middle reaches of the Irtysh River.

Evaluation of noncovalent interactions in L-(S)-lysinium L-(S)-mandelate dihydrate crystal: Inputs from Hirshfeld surfaces, PIXEL energy and theoretical charge density

L-lysine amino acid is cocrystallized with L-mandelic acid by the slow evaporation method. Single crystal X-ray analysis reveals that lysine-mandelic acid crystallized as a dihydrate form. In the crystalline state, the lysine molecule exists in the cationic form in which the backbone and side chain amino groups are protonated and the carboxylic acid is deprotonated. The carboxylic acid proton of the mandelic acid is transferred to the lysine side chain and thus carries a negatively charged ion. The lattice water molecules are located near the amino groups of the lysine. Intermolecular interactions formed between lysinium, mandelate and lattice water molecules are qualitatively analyzed using Hirshfeld surfaces and 2D-fingerprint plots. The energetics of different dimeric complexes is quantitatively analyzed using PIXEL energy analysis. Topological parameters derived from QTAIM framework are used to delineate the nature of different intermolecular interactions formed in the title complex.

Output Beam from a Confocal Resonator with a Pinhole for Mode Selection

An approximate expression for the output beam from a confocal resonator, into which a pinhole for mode selection is inserted at an arbitrary position near the mirror at one end, is studied experimentally. The output beam consists of the fundamental component, in which the diffraction from the pinhole edge is not considered, and a field of the higher order component including the diffraction. In the region of the pinhole aperture larger than the beam width of the confocal resonator before the insertion of the pinhole, the diffraction component can be neglected. The output beam then may be approximated by the beam of the fundamental component, which is expressed simply by the field of the confocal resonator with unequal-sized mirrors of Boyd and Kogelnik. These results are confirmed by both experimental and theoretical examinations.

Beyond literary texts: A semiotic approach to a fictional (ritual) game of real (dis)order in William Golding's Lord of the flies

Lord of the Flies by William Golding should be read as an instance of an allegorical discursive practice of the English society during the Second World War. The allegory is interpreted as an interweaving between the apparent contradictory sides of a semiotic square and a Rubik cube that should merge through different permutations having as a final effect the knowledge that the children's innocence comes to an end. Our analysis unfolds the “semiotic web” (Sebeok) based on the metaphorical reasoning that the main characters, shipwrecked on a deserted island, use in order to make sense of the new environment.

Reproductive periodicity of sea cucumber Bohadschia vitiensis (Echinodermata: Holothuroidea) in Hurghada area, Red Sea, Egypt

A small scale sea cucumber fishery began in Egypt in 1998 on the northern part of Red Sea coast fig. (1). By the year 2000, its fishery had expanded dramatically, leading to over exploitation. Evidence from previous study [1] indicates that four years after banning sea cucumber fishery in Egyptian Red Sea, some commercial species are returning to some of the sites, but there is no evidence of stock recovery. B. vitiensis was studied during 2003-2004 and a population analysis of 417 individuals showed significant abundance of males. Reproductive studies showed also that during June and July an intensive period of spawning occurred with size at 1st maturity of 24.5 and 26.1 cm for males and females respectively. The oocyte diameter of ripe females ranged from 87.5 to 162.5 µm during active spawning period.

Peptides and Ribonucleotides in Fresh Meat as a Function of Aging in Relation to Sensory Attributes of Pork

Peptides and ribonucleotides in fresh meat as a function of aging in relation to sensory attributes of pork. Doctoral thesis The objective of the present thesis was to obtain a more fundamental understanding of the development and importance of the flavour precursors, peptides and ribonucleotides on flavour development in pork. This will contribute to a better understanding of the influence of specific enzyme activities and production parameters on essential meat quality attributes. The developed approach proved to be an appropriate tool to follow post-mortem changes in the peptide profile of pork during aging and hereby make it possible to identify specific peptides with potential importance for meat quality development and final meat quality. Changes in peptide patterns during aging of pork proceeded through continuous increase and decrease of the individual peptide fractions, which refer to gradual degradation of individual proteins/peptides throughout aging. Moreover, a decreased rate in the development in the peptide pattern was induced
