Assessment of Yield and Quality Characters in Pumpkin from North East India

Twenty five diverse pumpkin germplasm from North East India were assesed for correlation and path coefficient analysis. Correlation revealed that, characters like number of fruit per plant had significant positive correlation with fruit yield per plant both at genotypic and phenotypic level. Path Coefficient Analysis revealed that, days to first pistillate flower anthesis (1.185) and number of fruits per plant (0.681) had maximum positive direct effect on fruit yield per plant.These are the real independent characters and have maximum contribution towards fruit yield per plant at genotypic level. Whereas at phenotypic level, fruit yield per plant was imposed by number of fruits per plant (0.664) only. From the overall result, the traits like days to first pistillate flower anthesis and numbers of fruits per plant can be utilize for breeding programme to increase fruit yield per plant in pumpkin.

PEREMPUAN MANDIRI DALAM NOVEL BUMI MANUSIA KARYA PRAMUDYA ANANTA TOER DAN DRAMA MUTTER COURAGE UND IHRE KINDER KARYA BERTOLT BRECHT

The purpose of this study to describe and reveal the comparation of the independence of female characters in Pramoedya Ananta Toer’s Bumi Manusia and in Bertolt Brecht’s Mutter Courage und Ihre Kinder. This research is a qualitative descriptive study using the comparative literature method. This research will describe and comprehend the comparison of independent female characters in the Pramudya Ananta Toer’s Bumi Manusia and in Brecht’s Mutter Courage und Ihre Kinder by Bertolt Brecht. The results showed that from the comparison of two independent female character in two literary works, namely novel Bumi Manusia and drama Mutter Courage und Ihre Kinder, it can be concluded that there are many similarities of the two independent female characters despite the difference. Equation (affinity) also showed that the two works were created by different authors are also mutually influence. Drama Mutter Courage und Ihre Kinder by Bertolt Brecht created in 1938 possibly affect Bumi Manusia novel created by Pramoedya Ananta Toer in 1975. Moreover, both authors are communist and they created the two literary works while in exile.

The influence of learning science with constructivist approach towards character building of early childhood

The instilling of character values is one of the priorities in early childhood education which can be obtained from science learning. The aspect of science learning, in its essence, is to acquaint children to the natural environment directly or through the other media. This study has a purpose to discover the impact of science learning with a constructivist approach towards the construction of early childhood’s character. This is experimental research with pre-test and post-test. 15 early childhood students of TK Adzkia II, Tabing, Padang are involved in data collection with total sampling and analyzed with the t-test method. It is found that there has been an influence of learning science towards the building of independent, careful and environmental caring characters for early childhood. The result shows that the average score of mastery of students’ character values is higher after being given science learning with a constructivist approach.

Phylogeographic and taxonomic considerations on Goniolimon tataricum (Plumbaginaceae) and its relatives from south-eastern Europe and the Apennine Peninsula

Goniolimon species are mainly components of the Eurasian steppe or steppe-like rocky vegetation, with some taxa occurring also in south-eastern Europe and northern Africa. We analysed the variability of: (i) two maternally inherited plastid loci (rpl32-trnL and 3′rps16-5′trnK) in 110 individuals of six currently accepted species from the Balkans and one species from the Apennines, to provide new insights into their origin and evolutionary history; and (ii) quantitative morphological characters (14 independent characters and one ratio character) in 641 individuals of three species of which two are morphologically and ecologically similar (G. italicum and G. tataricum) and the third, G. dalmaticum, was frequently misidentified as G. tataricum in the past, to provide new taxonomic treatment for proposed G. tataricum subspecies. We delineated several quantitative and five qualitative characters studied in a more limited sample as diagnostic for the identification of four subspecies (three newly described and one in a new rank) of G. tataricum. The history of westward peripheral populations of this species in the Balkans and the Apennines was rather complex and driven by local geo-historic events. These events facilitated multiple waves of east–west expansion of lineages originating from sources outside of the Balkan Peninsula which periodically diversified and occupied localised areas in the Balkans during the Pleistocene. An initial spread of an ancient G. tataricum lineage throughout south-eastern Europe probably occurred during the Messinian Salinity Crisis. Inter- and intraspecific hybridisation/introgression, as well as retention of ancestral polymorphisms, was common in G. tataricum and related taxa over time.

Taxonomic Status of a Florida Differentiate in the Erynnis brizo Species Group: Classical Evidence (Lepidoptera: Hesperiidae: Pyrginae)

Erynnis somnus (Lintner), a species of skipper butterfly described from peninsular Florida in 1881, was demoted to subspecies—E. brizo somnus—early in the 20th century. Erynnis brizo (Boisduval and Leconte) is in a transcontinental group of allopatric species with members that differ more from one another (especially in male genitalia) than E. brizo somnus differs from E. brizo brizo. Nevertheless, the subspecific rank of somnus is questionable. Four short but productive fieldtrips to what looked like a sizable gap between the two taxa found them geographically close, with no apparent intervening barrier, in northern Florida (where the Peninsula becomes the Panhandle) and in southeastern Georgia. Independent adult characters—size and alar ground color—covary in each taxon: somnus is smaller and darker whereas E. brizo is larger and lighter. Given these (and some subtle) differences between the taxa and their proximity, it is appropriate to consider E. somnus a species.

She takes refuge, both physical and emotional, in the abandoned Cardew House, and when the wealthy Cardew siblings show up to renovate the old place, they happily welcome Lou into their glittery lives, inviting her to swank parties and boozy beach trips. She finds a loving (if somewhat overwhelming) friend in the glamorous heiress Caitlin, but more excitingly, a worthy verbal sparring partner in Caitlin’s brother Robert, a dashing fellow whose ability to get under Lou’s skin both annoys and intrigues her.

Nestling-sized hadrosaurine cranial material from the Hell Creek Formation of northeastern Montana, USA, with an analysis of cranial ontogeny in <em>Edmontosaurus annectens</em>

Author(s): Wosik, Mateusz; Goodwin, Mark B.; Evans, David C. | Abstract: Despite over a century of intense collecting, the Hell Creek Formation has produced exceedingly few specimens of small juveniles and nestling-sized dinosaurs. Here, we report on the first cranial material of nestling-sized hadrosaurid dinosaurs from the formation. The specimens were recovered from the Sandstone Basin locality in Garfield County, northeastern Montana. The material consists of two dentaries, a surangular, and a quadrate from disassociated individuals, which through ontogenetically independent characters allows assignment of the surangular (UCMP 235857) and quadrate (UCMP 235859) to Hadrosaurinae and the dentary (UCMP 235860) to Edmontosaurus. Since Edmontosaurus annectens is the only known hadrosaurid in the formation, we hypothesize that these specimens represent the earliest ontogenetic growth stage of E. annectens providing a significant ontogenetic extension when assessing aspects of cranial ontogeny in this taxon. Using the newly identified nestling cranial material as end members of ontogenetic series for each element in E. annectens, we evaluated ontogenetic variability in phylogenetic characters associated with these elements that are used in assessing phylogenetic relationships among hadrosaurids. Although the quadrate and surangular generally develop isometrically and show minimal ontogenetic variation in morphology, the dentary undergoes significant ontogenetic changes. In particular, the dental battery exhibits a high degree of intraspecific variability through ontogeny. Ontogenetic variability in the dentary should reflect a commensurate degree of variation in the jaws and facial skeleton, suggesting caution should be used when taxonomically identifying small edmontosaur material, such as that known from Alaska. Taxonomic identification of new taxa should be restricted to adult individuals until enough specimens are available to adequately assess taxonomic variation in ontogenetically equivalent semaphorants/ontogimorphs for a large range of complementing taxa.

THE SHREW AND THE SHREWD: MACHADO DE ASSIS'S LIÇÃO DE BOTÂNICA

Abstract Machado de Assis's play Lição de botânica (1906) transforms William Shakespeare's chauvinistic play Taming of the Shrew (1590-1592) into an entertaining exercise in feminist thought through the inversion of gender roles. As in Machado's novels, the female characters in Lição become agents, acting rather than being acted upon by others. By creating strong, smart, independent female characters and contrasting them with an awkward and accidentally humorous male character, Machado undermines misogyny and endorses feminist ideals.

Student Character Education Building on Biology Learning Through the Scientific Approach

This study aims to determine how the role of Pancasila education and citizenship in applying the independent character of students in class XI IPS 1 MA Mathla'ul Anwar Head of Cinangka, and to find out the supporting and inhibiting factors in applying the independent character of students.This study uses descriptive research methods and qualitative approaches, the subject of this research is PPKn teachers totaling 2 people and class XI students totaling 10. Data collection through interviews, observation and documentation. Data were analyzed by steps of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing.The results of this study indicate that: (1) PPKn has a very important role for the application of students' independent character because PPKn does not teach the values ​​of independent characters that are embedded, among them are responsiveness, no dependence on others, self-confidence, creativity, controlling yourself, make your own decisions and overcome your own problems. (2) The supporting factor is the desire of students, diversity, teachers, and parents while the inhibiting factors are the teacher's personality, school environment and bad habits as well as the adverse effects of parental treatment conditions. (3) efforts to make students apply the students' independent character, namely by collaborating between schools such as teachers, homeroom teachers, principals and parents.

Rosa arvensis as a possible genetic model

Despite a long-range breeding tradition in Europe, the rose remains poorly investigated at the level of formal genetics. In particular, a genetic model is missing that uses the advantages of reliable advanced pedigree from a wild species, carrying precise genotype annotations for characters and documented data on the origin of the genetic variations. Diploid species are more suitable for developing and understanding classical genetics in roses, and such studies can be extrapolated to tetraploid garden roses. R. arvensis, a common hardy rose from the synstylae group, is the only one diploid species to be broadly distributed in Europe, but was never explored genetically. In the wild, R. arvensis has distinctive traits, with no or little variability at first glance. Nevertheless, I have sampled from several regions of France, more than 60 rare variants and founded an experimental and conservatory garden to investigate the species genetically. For this, I chose a wild-collected (1995) standard plant 'Osenbuhr' as the reference genotype to start several complementary strategies of breeding programmes: controlled consanguineous and semi-compatible inbred lines, genetic exploration of the wild-collected variants, hybridization with mutants from other species, and finally hybridization of mutants accurately defined from the domesticated genetic pool. As the latter strains were chosen to recapitulate most of the diploid founders of the modern roses, a historic core-collection could be reconstituted with its own genealogy in the same time. The historical pedigree was anchored to the 'Osenbuhr' pedigree through hybridization with the different pioneer cultivars and altogether the roughly 1000 accessions convey around 160 independent characters. After 20 years of investigations, I will discuss whether R. arvensis would be suitable as a genetic model to investigate specialized metabolisms in roses.

Feminist Re-writing in Angela Carter’s The Bloody Chamber

The Bloody Chamber is the first well received work of Angela Carter. Angela Carter, the feminist writer of twentieth century presents stories free from patriarchal influence. She has re-written the popular folk and fairy tales like Red Riding Hood, Blue Beard, Sleeping Beauty in feminist perspective. In the course of re-writing the tales, she alters the original plot to give an unexpected end. The Bloody Chamber and other short stories published in 1979 presents the modern feminist want for a strong woman in literature. She has employed magical realism in her stories to give a realistic view of the modern world along with magical elements. She has undermined the gender roles of masculinity and femininity. Blue Beard is a folk tale written by Charles Perrault in which a man named Blue Beard murders his wives. This plot is taken by Angela Carter and she has created strong, independent and witty women characters. This paper discuses the effect of patriarchal narration and fruitful result when the phallocentrism is removed from the plot.

Koch, Carpani, and Momigny

This study examines historical writings about the “Classical” string quartet, a genre often compared to artful conversation. The conversation metaphor implicitly suggests “multiple agency” (Klorman 2016), whereby the four parts (or players) are interpreted as representing independent characters or personas. This paradigm contrasts sharply with the more monological musical personifications advanced in many recent writings on musical agency, such as Cone’s influentialThe Composer’s Voice(1974), which posit a “central intelligence” representing the “mind” of the composition, its fictional protagonist, or its composer. Focusing principally on discussions of Haydn’s and Mozart’s quartets in H. C. Koch’sVersuch(1793), J. J. de Momigny’sCours complet(1806), and G. Carpani’sLe Haydine(1812), I examine whether instrumental personas postulated by each author constitute genuine agents, according to criteria developed in Monahan 2013. At issue is whether personas are described as possessing (1) such anthropomorphic qualities as sentience, volition, and emotion; and (2) a capacity for independent action or utterance.
