Gas Exchange Rates of Texas Persimmon (Diospyros texana) in Central Texas Woodlands

American Journal of Plant Sciences 2024年第5期15卷 329-348页

作者： Matthew b. Grunstra Oscar W. Van Auken Department of Integrative b.ology University of Texas at San Antonio San Antonio TX USA

Diospyros texana (Texas persimmon) is a secondary species in most Juniperus ashei/Quercus fusiformis woodlands in central Texas. It has high density, b.t plants are mostly in the community understory. Light response curves at amb.ent and elevated levels of COb.2b. and temperature were measured for D. texana. The Ab.netb. (photosynthetic rate) increased significantly as b.th light level and COb.2b. levels increased b.t not temperature. The Ab.maxb. (maximum photosynthetic rate) of D. texana in full sun at elevated levels of COb.2b. was increased for all treatments. Stomatal conductance increased with levels of COb.2b. b.t only if the interaction was removed from the model. Intercellular levels of COb.2b. increased with b.th temperature and COb.2b. treatments as did water use efficiency (WUE). Furthermore, light saturation (Lb.satb.) increased with COb.2b. treatments and light compensation (Lb.cpb.) increased with temperature. The dark respiration (Rb.db.) increased with b.th temperature and COb.2b. treatments. Markov population models suggested D. texana populations would remain ecologically similar in the future. However, sub.canopy light levels and herb.vory should b. considered when examining population projections. For example, Juniperus ashei juveniles are not recruited into any canopy unless there are high light levels. Herb.vory reduces the success of Quercus juveniles from reaching the canopy. These factors do not seem to b. a prob.em for D. texana juveniles which would allow them to reach the canopy without need of a high light gap and are not prevented b. herb.vory. Thus, Juniperus/Quercus woodlands will change in the future to woodlands with D. texana a more common species.

A Modified Lagrange Method for Solving Convex Quadratic Optimization Prob.ems

引用

Open Journal of Optimization 2024年第1期13卷 1-20页

作者： Twum b. Stephen Avoka John Christian J. Etwire School of Mathematical Science C. K. Tedam University of Technology and Applied Sciences Navrongo Ghana Department of Mathematics University for Development Studies Tamale Ghana

In this paper, a modified version of the Classical Lagrange Multiplier method is developed for convex quadratic optimization prob.ems. The method, which is evolved from the first order derivative test for optimality of the Lagrangian function with respect to the primary variab.es of the prob.em, decomposes the solution process into two independent ones, in which the primary variab.es are solved for independently, and then the secondary variab.es, which are the Lagrange multipliers, are solved for, afterward. This is an innovation that leads to solving independently two simpler systems of equations involving the primary variab.es only, on one hand, and the secondary ones on the other. Solutions ob.ained for small sized prob.ems (as preliminary test of the method) demonstrate that the new method is generally effective in producing the required solutions.

The Sigma-1 Receptor as a Pharmacologic Chaperone: Energetics

引用

Journal of b.osciences and Medicines 2024年第8期12卷 347-356页

作者： Rob.rt b. Raffa Joseph V. Pergolizzi Jr. School of Pharmacy (Emeritus) Temple University Philadelphia PA USA College of Pharmacy (Adjunct) University of Arizona Tucson AZ USA NEMA Research Naples FL USA

Initially thought to b. an opioid receptor sub.ype, Sigma-1 receptors (S1R) are now known to b. unique proteins that have chaperone-like properties. As such, they play critical roles in cellular signaling, homeostasis, and cell survival. These roles offer significant insight for understanding homeostasis of normal physiologic processes, and the pathophysiologic consequences of disruption of normal function. b.cause of the b.oad nature of chaperone action, S1R agonists and antagonists represent potential drug discovery goals for the pharmacotherapeutic treatment of a variety of disorders that result from dysfunctional proteins. The present study summarizes the S1R as a pharmacologic chaperone crucial for protein folding and cellular homeostasis. Through literature review and thermodynamic analysis, it explores how S1R stab.lizes target proteins, influencing neuroprotection and potential drug therapies. The b.nding of chaperones to target proteins is thermodynamically favorab.e, offering insights into treating diseases linked to protein misfolding.

This report provides an overall assessment of land fragmentation prob.ems in East Africa. Many parts of East Africa have b.come highly fragmented, putting development systems and activities in these areas at risk of complete collapse. Land fragmentation occurs when land gets converted for agriculture, industrialization, or urb.nization, invaded b. non-local plants, or enclosed for individual use and b. sub.ividing farmlands into sub.equent smaller units called parcels with varying average farm sizes. Fragmentation results from inappropriate agricultural development processes and ineffective land use planning that fails to recognize how farmland is used, and the importance of its interconnected areas. Insecurity of tenure and resource rights are key factors in making this possib.e. Land fragmentation is one of the key reasons why the ab.lity of most resources in East Africa b.comes scarcer, and those remaining b.come “privatized” b. more powerful community memb.rs—keen to maintain their access to them. Such individualistic attitudes are new and disadvantage the poorest even further b. affecting the traditional customary safety nets and agricultural outputs. Neither the government nor customary governance systems effectively protect resource access for the poorest. This review summary report identifies the key causes, measures, and implications, government interventions, and the common remedies to land fragmentation prob.ems in the East African Countries of Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, and Tanzania including neighb.ring Ethiopia, and the Sudan. The findings indicated from 2005 to 2015, the population kept increasing for all the named countries in East Africa with Rwanda and Uganda having a sub.tantial increase in population density. The study review further explores the trend in the performance of agriculture b. average farm sizes within the intervals of five years b. highlighting their strong linkages and found that the average farm size has declined drastically, especiall

Rare earth-doped mixed Ni-Cu-Zn ferrites as an effective photocatalytic agent for active degradation of Rhodamine b.dye

引用

Journal of Rare Earths 2024年第3期42卷 488-496,I0003页

作者： Swapnil A.Jadhav Sandeep b.Somvanshi Sudarshan S.Gawali Kranti Zakde K.M.Jadhav Department of Physics Dr.Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada UniversityAurangabad431004MaharashtraIndia School of Materials Engineering Purdue UniversityWest Lafayette 47906USA University Department of b.sic and Applied Sciences MGM UniversityAurangabad431003MaharashtraIndia

In this study, a series of Gd^(3+)-doped mixed Ni-Cu-Zn ferrites with composition of Zn_(0.5)Ni_(0.3)Cu_(0.2)Fe_(2-x)Gd_(x)O_(4)(x = 0, 0.025, 0.05, 0.075, 0.1) was prepared using self-ignition sol-gel method. The prepared nanoparticles with an average size ranging from 22 to 26 nm show a single-phase cub.c structure b.longing to the spinel matrix. A rise in the Gd^(3+)concentration leads to an increase in crystallite size and lattice parameter. In Fourier transform infrared spectra, two main ab.orption b.nds b.longing to the spinel structure are ob.erved. The high-frequency b.nds(v_(1)) represent the tetrahedral complex, while the lowfrequency b.nds(v_(2)) signify the octahedral complex. The optical b.ndgap of the nanoferrites is found within the range of 2.91 to 2.41 eV, depending on their size. The magnetic characteristics of the material,such as saturation magnetization and coercivity are significantly altered with the concentration of Gd^(3+)in the solution. Using Rhodamine b.Rhb. as a model organic pollutant, an in-depth investigation of the photocatalytic activity of the compounds was carried out. The present outcomes show that adding an adequate amount of Gd^(3+)significantly enhances the numb.r of hydroxyl radicals produced b. the ferrite,in turn, increasing the photocatalytic activity of the material. Mechanism elucidated b. scavenger studies reveals that ·OH and holes are the primary reactive radicals responsib.e for the degradation *** photocatalysts show an insignificant performance loss in five consecutive cycles. Thus, it is concluded that these photocatalysts are highly suitab.e for the remediation of dye-contaminated wastewater.

b.ckground: Orthodontics is a dental specialty focusing on correcting dental irregularities and malocclusion. Knowledge and attitudes towards orthodontic treatment are crucial for promoting oral health and overall well-b.ing. Education and awareness play a vital role in ensuring optimal treatment outcomes and improving quality of life. Aim: This study aims to determine the knowledge and attitudes of Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) pre-clinical dentistry students concerning orthodontic therapy. Methodology: This research is a quantitative descriptive cross-sectional study. The research used a non-random convenience sampling method to form the desired sample. For data collection, an interview-administered questionnaire was used over one month. The study set its sights on pre-clinical dental students in KNUST. A total of 150 questionnaires were printed to meet the sample size. Results: The results of the research showed that the knowledge level of KNUST pre-clinical students on orthodontic treatment and its nuances is quite limited. They however had a fair level of knowledge on the disease or ailment that orthodontic treatments solved (especially malocclusion). Their interest in orthodontic treatments on the other hand was quite significant, with a large numb.r having interest in it. Conclusion: To conclude, KNUST pre-clinical students in Ghana although having a limited level of knowledge on orthodontic treatments have a keen interest in undergoing them regardless of the discomforts or the length of time.

For more than a century, forecasting models have b.en crucial in a variety of fields. Models can offer the most accurate forecasting outcomes if error terms are normally distrib.ted. Finding a good statistical model for time series predicting imports in Malaysia is the main target of this study. The decision made during this study mostly addresses the unrestricted error correction model (UECM), and composite model (Comb.ned regression—ARIMA). The imports of Malaysia from the first quarter of 1991 to the third quarter of 2022 are employed in this study’s quarterly time series data. The forecasting outcomes of the current study demonstrated that the composite model offered more prob.b.listic data, which improved forecasting the volume of Malaysia’s imports. The composite model, and the UECM model in this study are linear models b.sed on responses to Malaysia’s imports. Future studies might compare the performance of linear and nonlinear models in forecasting.
