Saprotrophic fungi from Juniperus deppeana (Cupressaceae) forest: isolation, identification, in vitro culture, and preservation

The alteration of forests due to anthropogenic activities and natural phenomena has led to the development of adaptive features so that organisms can tolerate it or use it to their benefit. In this study, saprotrophic fungi from a disturbed Juniperus deppeana forest were isolated and identified for in vitro propagation. Thirty-one specimens were collected and propagated on malt extract agar (EMA), potato dextrose agar (PDA), Kraft lignin agar (A-L) and mineral medium (MM). Taxonomic identification was performed on the basis of macro- and micromorphological characters of the basidiomata, and was complemented by phylogenetic analysis of ITS sequences. Only 7 strains grew under in vitro conditions; they grew best in EMA and PDA media. Room temperature (~22 °C) and preservation at 4 °C were the best conditions to maintain the viability of the strains. After 6 months, strains preserved in glycerol (15%) at 4° and -20 °C were not viable. The isolated fungi belong to the genera Agrocybe, Byssomerulius, Coniophora and Gymnopus. Given the environmental conditions where the strains were isolated, they represent new research prospects for obtaining biomolecules of biotechnological interest.

Identification of Lasiodiplodia species inciting stem rot of dragon fruit in India through polyphasic approach.

Lasiodiplodia species commonly thrive as endophytes, saprobes, and plant pathogens in tropical and subtropical regions. Association of Lasiodiplodia species causing stem rot in dragon fruit in the coastal belt of Odisha, eastern India, has been illustrated here. The stem rot disease was characterized by yellowing of the stem, followed by softening of the stem tissues with fungal fructifications of the pathogen in the affected tissues. On the basis of macro- and micromorphological characteristics, the four fungal isolates recovered from diseased stems were identified initially as Lasiodiplodia species. By comparing DNA sequences within the NCBI GenBank database as well as performing a multigene phylogenetic analysis involving the internal transcribed spacer region (ITS-rDNA), β-tubulin (β-tub), and elongation factor-alpha (EF1-α) genes, the identity of Lasiodiplodia isolates was determined. The isolate CHES-21-DFCA was identified as Lasiodiplodia iraniensis (syn: L. iranensis) and the remaining three isolates, namely CHES-22-DFCA-1, CHES-22-DFCA-2, and CHES-22-DFCA-3, as L. theobromae. Although pathogenicity studies confirmed both L. iraniensisand L. theobromae were responsible for stem rot in dragon fruit, L. iraniensis was more virulent than L. theobromae. This study established the association of Lasiodiplodia species with stem rot in dragon fruit using a polyphasic approach. Further investigations are required, particularly related to on host-pathogen-weather interaction and spatiotemporal distribution across the major dragon fruit-growing areas of the country to formulate prospective disease management strategies. This is the first report on these two species of Lasiodiplodia inflicting stem rot in Hylocereus species in India.

ETHNOGRAPHIC REPRESENTATIONS ABOUT THE CONCEPT CAMEL IN THE KAZAKH LANGUAGE

Based on the emerging anthropocentric trend in modern linguistics, the search and study of ethnographisms related to a particular ethnic group is of particular importance. Any national language is a changeable phenomenon with a long history of development. In our time, language should be considered not only as a means of “communication”, expressing existence and thoughts, but also to focus on the “cognitive” function of expressing national views, characteristics, and the mentality of the people. By ethnographisms we mean the names of ethnographic objects and phenomena, the economy of our people, traditions, customs, beliefs, clothes, food, social activities, family relations, etc. special units and phrases used in connection with everyday, linguistic features. The relevance of the scientific article lies in the comparison, analysis, description, comprehensive study of ethnographic concepts associated with the concept of a camel in the Kazakh language, using analysis-synthesis methods. In the article, we studied and differentiated beliefs, customs, prohibitions, forbidden words found in our language on the basis of macro- and micro-subgroups associated with the concept of "camel", shown in the "World of the native language of the Kazakhs: Ethnolinguistic Dictionary" by scientist A. Kaidar. At the same time, we focused on the meaning of the names of species and colors related to "camel" cattle.

Scattering Analysis of Finite Periodic Array in the Vicinity of Arbitrary Object Using Hybrid Macro Basis Function Method

A hybrid macro basis function (MBF) method is proposed to analyze the finite periodic array in the vicinity of an arbitrary object. The array cells and object are modeled using the low order basis functions firstly. Afterwards, the MBFs defined on the cells are constructed using the modified accurate subentire domain basis function method. The MBFs on the object can be obtained using the characteristic basis function method. The total number of MBFs defined on the array cells and object is far less than that of the low order bases. Another advantage of the proposed method is that multiple excitations can be efficiently computed. Simulation results show that good agreement between the proposed method and other techniques is reached. In addition, computational efficiency is validated.

New Results Regarding the Cavitation Destruction Behavior of Heat-Treated CuSn12-C Bronze with Different Parameters

The present paper analyzes the differences in behavior and resistance to erosion through vibrating cavitation, between the bronze structures CuSn-12C resulting from two volumetric thermal treatments of hardening and tempering. The analysis was performed on the basis of macro and microscopic images, as well as on the basis of the histogram in which the values ​​of the reference parameters used in the laboratory custom and prescribed by the international norms ASTM G32-2016 are compared. This shows the dependence of the degree of erosion as a function of the temperature of tempering heat treatment, after hardening, as a result of microstructural changes and the hardness of the surface attacked by cavitation. The experimental research is performed on the standard vibrating device within the Cavitation Erosion Research Laboratory of the Politehnica University of Timișoara.

EFFECT OF TOURISM POTENTIAL ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF PAKSEBALI TOURISM VILLAGE, KLUNGKUNG BALI REGENCY

<p>The identity of the village as a tourism village is not only formal, but more than that, it must be able to be accounted for in its operational context. This operational context requires support from all parties so that the sustainability of the tourist village can be maintained. The thing that needs to be considered in the development of a tourist village is the sustainability of its potential. Because the purpose of a tourist village is to provide an opportunity for the community providing tourism to take part in their assets, not just being a spectator to tourism activities whose profits are enjoyed by investors (not local people). Therefore, it is necessary to identify the tourism potential that exists in Paksebali village before making arrangements that pay attention to the hospitality aspect and also the sustainability of natural, cultural and other potentials for the welfare of the local community. The problem that arises in the Paksebali Tourism Village is that the tourist attractions are far apart so that efficient circulation is very important in planning the master plan on a macro basis. And on a micro scale, the need for tourism support facilities that are hospitality and are responsible for the tourism potential available as a sustainable concept.</p>

Did Billboard, Cash Box, and Record World Charts Tell the Same Story? Perception and Reality, 1960-1979

ABSTRACT Billboard, Cash Box, and Record World had different reputations regarding the way they ranked records in their weekly charts; however, no systematic statistical analysis has been done to test those perceptions. This paper reports such a statistical analysis of chart behavior of 4,578 record sides, each with a unique and complete chart lifecycle, peaking at position 1–40 in all three magazines. Comparison was done at three levels: magazine, record, and year/decade. The magazines were found to have statistically significant differences of fractions of a week in some components of record lifecycle (rise, peak, fall, and length of time on the charts); however, those differences are not large enough to be perceived in chart behavior, where data granularity is one week. There are significant and perceptible differences, however, between the 1960s and 1970s, due largely to the differences in the number of chart entries. At record level, Billboard tended to score the highest-ranked records slightly higher than the other two magazines. Approximately 1.5% of the records show one magazine scoring the record significantly differently than the other two. Only fractional-week differences were found among the magazines in Entry, Peak, and Exit dates. Thus, on a macro basis, the magazines tended to tell the same story; on a micro basis they could tell very different stories for reasons that are not obvious.

Development Strategy Pembelajaran Pendidikan Agama Islam Sekolah Formal

The existence of Islamic Religious Education in SMP Negeri 2 Jember has not changed the situation much. This is due to the dichotomy of education system, caused by general lessons that subordinate Islamic Religious Education, so that religious teachers lose the guts to continue to develop Islamic Religious Education strategies, even if sometimes the potential exists. So there needs to be a form of a reliable strategy, in order to attract students' interest in learning religion. In this regard, the discussion in this journal discusses the school's strategy in developing Islamic education at SMP Negeri 2 Jember. The research method used in this research is qualitative. This research is a case study, because this research is carried out intensively, in detail and fundamentally about an institution that projects educational development strategies. The results of this study indicate that SMP Negeri 2 Jember concentrates on learning PAI. This is evidenced by the various efforts made for the success of school strategies in improving PAI learning in public schools on a macro basis.

Место сельского схода в регулировании питейной торговли после винной реформы 1863 года

Relevance. The place of the rural gathering in the regulation of the drinking trade after the wine reform of 1863 has not received a serious assessment in the scientific literature. The presented article is the first attempt to assess the impact of rural society on the size of the drinking trade The purpose − to determine the place of the rural gathering in the regulation of the drinking trade after the wine re-form of 1863. The objectives which follow from the goal set, are to: to name the normative acts establishing the place of the rural gathering in the opening of drinking establishments; to testify to the ways that wine merchants used to obtain con-sent; to determine the degree of independence of peasants in decision-making. Methodology. The study was conducted on the basis of macro- and micro-historical analysis, problem-chronological, historical-typological and historical-genetic methods were used. Results. The new legislation made the opening of drinking establishments on the lands belonging to rural societies dependent on rural gatherings. Peasants willingly went to a village meeting about a drinking establishment, behaved importantly, which was explained neither by adherence to morality, but by the desire to get money or booze for their vote. Rural societies reacted unfriendly to the Law of May 14, 1885, which prohibited receiving payment for a permissive sentence. The opposition was expressed in the growth of bans on the drinking trade. By law, on May 5, 1892, rural societies received official permission to open a drinking trade for a fee, but to spend it on paying arrears. Conclusions. The wine reform of 1863 included the village assembly in the system of regulation of the drinking trade. In the post-reform period, the limits of the influence of the rural gathering on the drinking industry changed, peasant consent largely depended on the rural authorities, world intermediaries, and the presence of drinking affairs. But the opportunity to open or prohibit the drinking trade strengthened the peasants' sense of self-importance. They gave preference to local merchants and the most generous petitioners. Wine merchants, wanting to get a permissive verdict, openly watered or distributed money to the peasants.

Socio-economic and political backgrounds of women legislators in Himachal Pradesh state legislative assembly: A study

Leadership decides the nature and efficiency of the political system. In representative democracy it is one of the important variables that collective leadership should represent the masses. It’s composition should also reflect the various colours of that society. According to ‘elite theory’ power in the democratic system circulate in particular section that comprises election section of that particular society. Present study is mainly focused on the issues of understanding the composition of the women leadership. Questions addressed in the paper are: who are women political leaders? Do they have political lineage? Do they belong to a section of the society which has hold over power in the pre-independence period? What is the location of the common women in the political arena? Hypothesis is structured on the basis of macro, micro and observation bases: women is still politically on the back foot. Her role in the politics still requires toning and boosting. Although Socio- economic (literacy, sex ratio) conditions of the Himachal Pradesh is better than neighbouring State but if we look at the State Legislative Assembly, we find representation of women steadily increasing. Therefore, it is important to study the socio-economic and political profile of elected women (1998-2022) for the purpose of our present study.

REINTERPRETATION OF LIVELIHOODS IN MARRIAGE LAW AND ITS IMPLICATIONS ON FAMILY RESISTANCE IN THE TIME AND POST COVID-19

The rules regarding a living in Law Number 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage and the Compilation of Islamic Law imposes the obligation to earn a living only on the husband. These two regulations create problems in society. Many wives demand a living from their husbands. Not a few wives also have jobs and income, but they are spent on their own needs, including for consumptive things, channeling hobbies and others because they think that fulfilling a living is not part of their obligations. This condition is coupled with the interpretation of a number of verses of the Qur'an and the traditions of the Prophet which are still patriarchal. The marriage law and a number of verses of the Qur'an and the Prophet's hadith need to be reinterpreted. This is because the development of an increasingly advanced era makes the role of women not only as wives who only take care of the household, but also as one of the contributors to the economy. This research uses the library research method. This study concludes that the livelihoods in these two laws and regulations need to be updated to be relevant to current conditions. Supposedly, the wife also has the same obligation in matters of livelihood. The reinterpretation of livelihood using the interpretation of mubadalah is to produce the principle of mutuality. The wife can even be the main breadwinner under certain conditions. This interpretation has implications for the fulfillment of the family's economy during the pandemic and post-covid-19 pandemic. Because, in difficult economic conditions, the wife participates in helping the family economy on a macro basis or even as the main provider in the household who changes places with her husband.Keywords: Reinterpretation, Livelihoods, Marriage Law, Family Resistance, Covid-19

Predicting Macro Basis Functions for Method of Moments Scattering Problems Using Deep Neural Networks

In this letter, we present research on the application of deep neural networks to predicting macro basis functions for complicated computational electromagnetics problems. We provide error statistics and representative examples for networks trained on simple and complicated datasets of method of moments scattering problems. Notably, we demonstrate that the networks learn generalizable knowledge applicable to problem types on which they were not trained. We conclude that the networks produce encouraging results, especially for cross validation, and larger training datasets will improve reliability for general scattering problems.

Dinamika Pembiayaan Perbankan Syariah Dalam Mengembangkan Dunia Usaha

his paper aims to analyze the development of financing that has been carried out by Islamic banking, both Islamic Commercial Banks (BUS) and Sharia Business Units (UUS). The analysis focuses on fluctuations in the value of the financing that has been disbursed based on the type of use and based on the contract used. This analysis is carried out using a quantitative approach with secondary data in the form of statistical financial statements of BUS and UUS for the period 2014 – 2018 obtained from the Directorate of Islamic Banking of Bank Indonesia and the Financial Services Authority. 
 The performance of Islamic banking, especially BUS and UUS, on a macro basis is quite encouraging. This achievement is shown by the increasing growth rate of financing and distribution of working capital and investment which tends to increase every year. However, the distribution of this financing is dominated by the distribution of non-SME business types. In addition, the allocation of financing distribution aimed at consumption has experienced very fast growth so that the portion of financing to support the productive sector has decreased. Another weakness is that the portion of financing is still dominated by financing with the murabahah scheme, and is channeled to the non-SME business level.

Diagnosis of Array Antennas Based on Phaseless Near-Field Data Using Artificial Neural Network

Diagnosis of array antennas based on phaseless near-field data is a practically important nonlinear inverse problem. One of the biggest challenges for the nonlinear inverse problem is to alleviate an ill-posedness resulting in poor accuracy. In this article, a novel source reconstruction method, which is based on an artificial neural network (ANN) enhanced by eigenmode currents, is proposed. Eigenmode currents, which work as macro basis functions, can be obtained numerically once precise geometry of the array antennas is found. The proposed source reconstruction method is named an ANN-EC (eigenmode currents) and is applied to diagnosis of array antennas based on phaseless near-field data. The ANN-EC has two advantages over conventional source reconstruction techniques purely based on the ANN. The first one is enhancement of accuracy and the second one is robustness to noise. Both of these advantages stem from reduction of the number of eigenmode currents using source reconstruction. Accuracy of the reconstructed currents is evaluated and these advantages of the ANN-EC over conventional ANN are demonstrated. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first paper demonstrating the effectiveness of the eigenmode currents on the nonlinear inverse problem.
