Opis:
Four new symmetrical Schiff bases derived from 2,2’-diamino-4,4’-dimethyl-1,1’-biphenyl-salicylaldehyde have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis and different spectroscopic techniques. The reaction of 2,2’-diamino-4,4’-dimethyl-1,1’-biphenyl with two equivalents of 5-tert-butyl-, 3,5-dinitro-, 3,5-dibromo- and 3-tert-butyl-salicylaldehyde yielded 2,2’-bis(5-tert-butyl-salicylideneamino)-4,4’-dimethyl-1,1’-biphenyl (A1) as well as the 3,5-dinitro- (A2), 3,5-dibromo- (A3) and 3-tert-butyl- (A4) substituted derivatives. The tetradentate ligands were then reacted with copper-, manganese- and zinc-acetate producing the tetra-coordinate metal complexes which were characterized by FTIR, UV-Visible spectroscopy, magnetic susceptibility and elemental analysis. Zinc complexes were characterized by 1H-NMR spectroscopy. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G(d) level of theory were carried out to fully optimize and examine the molecular geometries of complexes. Subsequently, IR vibrational and UV-Vis absorption spectra were computed and correlated with the observed values and the results are in good agreement with the experimental data. The anticancerous and antiproliferative activity of the A3 ligand and its metal complexes were determined.

Opis:
Early blight disease caused by Alternaria sp. is one of the most devastating diseases of Solanaceous crops widely distributed in Sudan. The aim of this study was to determine the genetic variation among different Alternaria isolates recovered from different Solanaceae crops showing typical symptoms of early blight disease. Infected leaves of tomato, potato, eggplant and pepper were collected from different geographical zones in Sudan. The recovered fungal isolates were identified to the genus level based on cultural and morphological characteristics. Five representative isolates were sent to the CABI Bioscience, U.K. for confirmation. The genetic relationship among the isolates was determined using the amplified fragments length polymorphism (AFLP) technique and the generated data were used to create similarity matrices using the PAST 3.01 software package. Dendrograms were constructed based on Jaccard’s similarity coefficients. A total of 70 fungal isolates was recovered from the tested plants and all of them showed morphological characteristics typical of Alternaria spp. The conidia appeared in multiple-branched chains with spore sizes in the range of 2.38−13.09 μm × 12.30−43.63 μm. Therefore, the isolates were identified as Alternaria alternata (Fr.) Keissl. The identification was then confirmed by CABI.AFLPbased dendrogram which revealed five clusters with a significant cophenetic correlation coefficient (r = 0.834) between the dendrogram and the original similarity matrix irrespective of their geographical origins. Eighteen (75%) of the Alternaria isolated from tomato leaves were clustered together in cluster I and five isolates formed two separate clusters, viz. cluster IV (T-Kh5 and T-H1) and cluster V (T-H4 and T-Med2). The remaining isolate, T-Am5, grouped with one of the potato isolates in cluster III. The other isolates which were recovered from potato, pepper and eggplants were all separated from the tomato isolates in the largest cluster.

Opis:
The cowpea aphid (Aphis craccivora Koch) is considered a serious insect pest attacking several crops. We carried out biochemical studies to elucidate the role of the metabolising enzymes in conferring resistance to thiamethoxam, in two strains (resistant and susceptible) of the cowpea aphid. Bioassay experiments showed that the thiamethoxam selected strain developed a 48 fold resistance after consecutive selection with thiamethoxam for 12 generations. This resistant strain also exhibited cross-resistance to the tested carbamates; pirimicarb and carbosulfan, organophosphorus (malathion, fenitrothion, and chlorpyrifos-methyl), and the neonicotinoid (acetamiprid). Synergism studies have indicated that S,S,S-tributyl phosphorotrithioate (DEF), a known inhibitor for esterases, increased thiamethoxam toxicity 5.58 times in the resistant strain compared with the susceptible strain. Moreover, the biochemical determination revealed that carboxylestersae activity was 30 times greater in the resistant strain than in the susceptible strain. In addition, the enzyme activity of glutathione S-transferase (GST) and mixed function oxidases (mfo) increased only in the resistant strain 3.7 and 2.7 times, respectively, in relation to the susceptible (the control). Generally, our results suggest that the higher activity of the detoxifying enzymes, particularly carboxylesterase, in the resistant strain of the cowpea aphid, apparently have a significant role in endowing resistance to thiamethoxam, although additional mechanisms may contribute.

Opis:
Density and diversity of Fusarium species and other fungi associated with rhizosphere and rhizoplane of lentil and sesame plants at three different growth stages were investigated. Sixteen species of Fusarium were isolated from rhizosphere (13 species) and rhizoplane (11) of both plants studied. In lentil, 11 species were recorded from its rhizosphere (9 species) and rhizoplane (8). Fusarium species associated with lentil rhizoplane gave highest number of propagules at the first stage of plant growth while the ones of Fusarium associated with the rhizosphere produced the highest number at the second stage of growth. F. solani was the most common in the three growth stages. In addition, of two growth stages, F. culmorum and F. tricinctum were isolated from the rhizosphere while F. nygamai and F. verticillioides from the rhizoplane. The other species were recorded from only one growth stage of lentil plant. In sesame plants, rhizosphere yielded nine Fusarium species while rhizoplane gave only six from the three stages investigated. Stage I of sesame rhizosphere possessed the highest colony forming units of Fusarium. As the case for lentil, F. solani was the most common species in sesame rhizospere and rhizoplane. F. verticillioides and F. nygamai (in three different growth stages) followed by F. oxysporum and F. tricinctum (in two growth stages) were recorded using the dilution-plate and/or soil-plate methods from sesame rhizosphere soils. Rhizoplane Fusarium species of sesame plants were isolated at the three different growth stages with almost equal number of colony forming units. F. poae came after F. solani in its frequency since it was recovered from two growth stages. Several of the isolated species are well-known as pathogens to many cultivated plants. To the best of our knowledge, three species are recorded here for the first time in Egypt from the rhizosphere (F. acutatum), rhizoplane of sesame plants (F. longipes) and from rhizosphere of both lentil and sesame and rhizoplane of lentil (F. nygamai).

Opis:
Seed and seedling vigour is an aspect of seed quality which affects field establishment and performance. Low maize yields have been reported  to be affected by several factors in which poor quality seed with low seed and seedling vigour. Information is scarce on seed and seedling vigour in maize inbred lines developed for tropical environments. Fifteen genotypes of tropical maize (Zea mays L.) inbred lines were evaluated to determine the level of differences in seed and seedling vigour traits, and extent of relationships among traits and their heritability. A substantial amount of genetic variability was found, which suggested that most of the traits under study could be improved through selection and utilized in breeding programs. Positive and signifi- cant interrelationship  among  seed germination  and seedling  traits  and  a positive  correlation  between  seed germination and seed vigour and field emergence showed that these could be given due consideration in crop improvement for seed and seedling vigour. High genotypic coefficient of variation, heritability and genetic advance were obtained for seed germination, seed emergence, shoot length and seedling vigour index I and II, revealing the possibility of improvement in these characters through direct selection. The principal component analysis (PCA) identified seed emergence, shoot length, seedling vigour index I and II and tetrazolium vigour as characters that contributed greatly to variation in seed vigour in the maize inbred lines. Cluster analysis partitioned the genotypes into two groups, with group I consisting of seven genotypes and group II comprised the other eight genotypes, which suggested that hybridization between the two groups could lead to high level of heterosis. Genotype V5  had superior seedling vigour traits compared to other genotypes. Seedling emer- gence, shoot length, seedling vigour index I, seedling vigour index II and tetrazolium vigour are effective characters for good seedling vigour traits in maize inbred lines investigated.

Opis:
The food-use of the tamarind (Tamarindus indica L.) fruit produces shell and seeds as by-products. In this work, the effects of the tamarind shell moisture content and the temperature of their extrusion on the dietary fiber content and physiochemical properties, such as water absorption capacity (WAC), oil absorption capacity (OAC), and glucose dialysis retardation index (GDRI) of the extrudates, were estimated. Moreover, the effects of the extrusion variables on the total phenolic and total flavonoid contents and on the antioxidant capacity of the tamarind shell were evaluated. The dry powdered tamarind shell was conditioned to have 32 or 39 g of water per 100 g of shell, prior to being subjected to extrusion. Subsequently, the conditioned samples were processed at 90°C, 100°C and 110°C in a single screw extruder. A non-extruded tamarind shell was taken as a control. The extrusion resulted in a 138.3% increase in the soluble dietary fiber content, along with 40.3% and 18.4% reductions of total phenolic and total flavonoid contents, respectively. The antioxidant capacity of the tamarind shell with moisture content of 32 g/100 g extruded at 100°C and 110°C was similar to that of non-extruded material. Moreover, the extruded products had the higher OAC compared to that of the control and they displayed an excellent response with regard to controlling the GDRI. The extrusion advantageously modified properties of the tamarind shell particularly when material with a moisture content of 32 g/100 g at 100°C was processed.

Opis:
Wild raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) is abundantly grown and widely distributed in temperate regions of lower Himalayan range which represents rich biological diversity for raspberry. Thirty accessions were explored from three different locations of Azad Jammu and Kashmir (Pakistan), several traits were visualized at sampling locations and some characteristics were evaluated and quantified after harvest of leaf and fruit samples. The accessions differed greatly in growth habit, blooming time, intensity of flowering, fruit setting, ripening time, productivity, fruit shape and color. Concerning quantitative characteristics, significant differences were found in plant height, leaf length and width, number of braches per plant, duration of flowering, fruit setting percentage, days to maturity, fruit length, width and weight among the samples collected from different locations. Ripe fruits were evaluated for their chemical composition i.e. moisture, carbohydrates, protein, fat, fiber, ash, TSS, acidity, pH and mineral (K, Ca, Na, Fe, Cu, Zn, Mn, Pb, and Cr) contents. The location also had significant effect on chemical composition of ripe fruits.
Malina właściwa (Rubus idaeus L.) jest często hodowana i szeroko rozprowadzana w umiarkowanych rejonach niższego pasma Himalajów, które reprezentuje bogatą różnorodność biologiczną malin. Zbadano trzydzieści próbek z trzech różnych miejsc Azad Jammu i Kaszmiru (Pakistan), dokonano wizualizacji kilkunastu cech w miejscach pobierania próbek oraz oceniono i ilościowo określono kilka cech po zebraniu próbek liści i owoców. Próbki znacznie różniły się wzrostem, czasem kwitnienia, intensywnością zakwitania, zawiązywaniem owoców, czasem dojrzewania, plonowaniem oraz kształtem i kolorem owoców. Jeśli chodzi o cechy ilościowe, to stwierdzono istotne różnice w wysokości roślin, długości i szerokości liści, liczbie gałązek na roślinie, długości kwitnienia, procencie zawiązywanych owoców, liczbie dni do dojrzałości, długości owoców, szerokości i wadze pomiędzy próbkami zebranymi z różnych stanowisk. Dojrzałe owoce oceniono pod względem składu chemicznego, tzn. wilgotności, zawartości węglowodanów, białka, tłuszczu, błonnika, popiołu, TSS, kwasowości, pH oraz zawartości minerałów (K, Ca, Na, Fe, Cu, Zn, Mn, Pb oraz Cr). Stanowisko także miało istotny wpływ na skład chemiczny dojrzałych owoców.

Opis:
A total of 96 indigenous Brassica rapa accessions were collected from different locations of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. Simple Sequence Repeats (SSR) markers were used to identify the most diverse genotypes among the collected lots. Twenty six (26) different SSR primers were used for (genetic) variability among collected genotypes. These primers were selected from literature based on their previous results. These primers produced 135 scorable bands of which 75 were polymorphic, with an average of 55.5% polymorphic loci, and reflected the broader genetic background of the collected genotypes. An average 2.88 polymorphic bands with an average PIC value of 0.49 was recorded. Unweighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic Mean (UPGMA) divided all genotypes into three main groups. Group one contained three clusters, while group two and three had four and two clusters each. Based on the UPGMA dendrogram, genotypes collected from Kohat, Bannu, Swat and Haripur showed considerable amount of variation. From the present study, it is concluded that SSR markers can be proved as the best tool for the genetic variability of other local and exotic B. rapa genotypes.

Opis:
Wheat is a leading cereal, playing a crucial role in feeding the hungry world and improving global food security. The present study was undertaken to comparatively analyze the extent of genetic diversity for various quantitative traits among the wheat material exotic to Pakistan, received from CIMMYT (The International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center), Mexico. Nineteen advanced lines from the Semi-Arid Wheat Yield Trial (SAWYT) were studied along with a local cultivar, considered a control (NIA-Amber). Data were recorded on nine important agro-morphic traits. The compared genotypes differed significantly (p ≤ 0.05) in the studied traits, where line V6 produced the highest mean grain yield (6,049 kg ha−1) and maximum 1,000-grain weight (45.0 g). Other lines, V19, V17, and V2, also showed superiority in yield (5,723, 5,150, and 5,067 kg ha−1, respectively). Days to heading established a significant positive association with days to maturity (r = 0.7995), plant height (r = 0.3168), spike length (r = 0.2696), and spikelets per spike (r = 0.4391). The important yield associated trait, 1,000-grain weight, had a highly significant positive correlation (r = 0.6833) with grain yield. Cluster analysis for various quantitative traits showed important information about genetic diversity for the studied traits among wheat genotypes. Hence, selection of genotypes for higher grain yield based on these traits could be useful for future breeding.
Pszenica (Triticum aestivumL.) jest jednym z najważniejszych zbóż, odgrywającym kluczową rolę w zaspokajaniu potrzeb żywnościowych ludności i poprawie globalnego bezpieczeństwa żywnościowego. Niniejsze badania podjęto w celu przeprowadzenia analizy porównawczej stopnia różnorodności genetycznej wybranych cech ilościowych u linii pszenicy egzotycznych dla Pakistanu, otrzymanymi z Meksyku (CIMMYT; The International Corn and Wheat Impro- vement Center). Dziewiętnaście linii pochodzących z Semi-Arid Wheat Yield Trial (SAWYT) badano razem z lokalną odmianą NIA-Amber, przyjętą jako kontrola. Dane rejestrowano dla dziewięciu ważnych cech agro-morfologicznych. Porównywane genotypy różniły się istotnie (p≤ 0,05) pod względem badanych cech. Linia V6 dała najwyższy średni plon ziarna (6049 kg ha−1) i największą masę 1000 ziarniaków (45,0 g). Linie V19, V17 i V2 również wykazały wysoki plon (odpowiednio 5723, 5150 i 5067 kg ha−1). Liczba dni do kłoszenia była istotnie dodatnio skorelowana z wysokością roślin (r= 0,7995), dniami do dojrzałości (r= 0,3168), długością kłosa ( r= 2696) i liczbą kłosków w kłosie (r= 0,4391). Ważna cecha wpływająca na plon – masa 1000 ziarniaków – była wysoce dodatnio skorelowana z plonem ziarna (r= 0,6833). Analiza skupień dla różnych cech ilościowych dostarczyła ważnych informacji o różnorodności genetycznej badanych cech między genotypami pszenicy, dlatego też wybór genotypów dla uzyskania wyższego ziarna w oparciu o te cechy może być przydatny do przyszłej hodowli.

Opis:
Notoungulates represent the most taxonomically diverse and temporally and geographically widespread group among South American native ungulates. Here, we analyze anatomical and systematic aspects of proximal tarsal bones recovered from the Lower and Upper Lumbrera formations (middle and late middle Eocene) in northwestern Argentina. We provide detailed descriptions, comparisons, and infer foot stances and range of movements for the taxa implicated. Material studied includes astragali belonging to the oldfieldthomasiid Colbertia lumbrerense (Lower Lumbrera Formation), a set of proximal tarsals referred as Typotheria indet. (Lower Lumbrera Formation), and tarsals (also including navicular and cuboid) of the informal taxon “Campanorco inauguralis” (Upper Lumbrera Formation). The comparison of the tarsals of Colbertia lumbrerense (middle Eocene of Argentina) with Colbertia magellanica (early Eocene of Brazil) reveals several differences including variations on the development and arrangement of articular facets, and the size of the dorsal astragalar foramen in the Argentinean species. The specimen of Typotheria indet. shows morphological affinities with basal interatheriid taxa. However, its larger size contrasting with the overall small body sizes of Eocene interatheriids precludes an indisputable taxonomic assignment. Concerning “Campanorco inauguralis”, our observations indicate that there is no morphological evidence for a close phylogenetic relationship with Mesotheriidae. It presents a “reversed alternating tarsus” condition, which is also observed in Leontiniidae, “Notohippidae”, Toxodontidae, and some typotherians. However, the spectrum of singularities exhibited by this form precludes the assessment of its relationships in the context of the Paleogene radiation of Typotheria and it is necessary to extend the comparison to Eocene notoungulates. Finally, in a morphofunctional context a plantigrade foot posture is inferred for the specimens here reported. These observations have the potential to provide functional proxies for paleoecological reconstructions to be applied to the study of the early radiation of these notoungulate faunas.

Opis:
The aim of the study is to compare Ziegler-Nichols (Z-N) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) based tuning methods for controller tuning in the driving mechanism of prosthetic limbs. By adopting suitable control strategies like P, PI and PID in the driving system, the positioning of knee and hip joints can be attained in the ideal time of 1.4s for completing one locomotion cycle. The gain constants (KP , KI , and KD) of the controllers were tuned manually and also using Z-N and PSO; thereby appropriate constants were determined so that the joints could be moved to the desired position. The performance of P, PI, and PID controllers were compared and PID was identified as the ideal control strategy which exhibited least error and good stability. It was observed that the conventional Z-N method produced a big overshoot, and so a modern approach called PSO was employed to enhance its capability. The PSO based PID controller optimization resulted in less overshoot as well as it helped in optimizing the gain constants so as to improve the stability of the system when compared to the classical method.

Opis:
Nitro and amine groups were introduced into the cyclopentane skeleton, and the heats of formation, detonation performance, bond dissociation energies, and impact sensitivity for these aminonitrocyclopentanes were calculated in detail at the B3LYP/6-311G** level. The results show that all of the derivatives have negative heats of formation, which are influenced by the position of the substituent groups. Their stabilities were estimated and analyzed according to their bond dissociation energies and calculated characteristic H50 values. Most of the compounds were found to have a lower impact sensitivity than HMX. Furthermore, the detonation velocities and detonation pressures were predicted via the Kamlet-Jacobs equation. Of all these aminonitrocyclopentanes, E has the best detonation properties (ρ = 2.05 g/cm3, D = 9.11 m/s, P = 39.62 GPa) and can be considered as a candidate high energy density material.
