Pattern in escalations in insurgent and terrorist activity

In military planning, it is important to be able to estimate not only the number of fatalities but how often attacks that result in fatalities will take place. We uncovered a simple dynamical pattern that may be used to estimate the escalation rate and timing of fatal attacks. The time difference between fatal attacks by insurgent groups within individual provinces in both Afghanistan and Iraq, and by terrorist groups operating worldwide, gives a potent indicator of the later pace of lethal activity.     

The development ofRhizoctonia solani Kühn on the underground parts of the potato plant

Summary The development of the sclerotia (black scurf) ofRhizoctonia solani Kühn, on potato tubers is related to tuber maturity and the health of the root and stolon systems. Few sclerotia formed on tubers from untreated plants until the onset of plant senescence when, as the tubers matured and roots and stolons decayed, sclerotia developed both rapidly and extensively. Application of acid to haulms in early August led to an increase in black scurf on tubers, initially related to the increase in root and stolon infection, but especially after later harvests, to the degree of tuber maturity. Later in August, scurf increases were paralleled both by tuber changes and root and stolon infection. My mid-September, when acid application was to plants becoming senescent, there was little difference between patterns of infection found on treated and check plants.

Zusammenfassung In diesem Artikel wird der Fortlauf der Infektion durchRhizoctonia solani Kühn an Wurzeln. Stolonen und Knollen beschrieben. Ferner wird der Einfluss der Krautvernichtung und des zeitlichen Abstandes zwischen ihr und der Ernte auf diese Infektion untersucht. Pflanzknollen der Sorte Majestic wurden am Kronenende direkt vor dem Auspflanzen mit vier Isolaten vonR. solani (aus Sklerotien von Kartoffelknollen) inokuliert. An den ausgelesenen Knollen war keine Pockenkrankheit sichtbar. Das Kraut wurde an einem von fünf Daten gespritzt resp, nicht gespritzt und die Pflanzen nachher in Intervallen geerntet (Tabelle 1). Wurzel- und Stolonenteile wurden gewaschen, dann auf Leitungswasseragar, das 50 mg Neomycin und Chloramphenicol proliter enthielt, gebracht und vor der Beurteilung auf Rhizoctoniabefall w?hrend 48 Stunden bei Zimmertemperatur bebrütet. Die Pflanzknollen wurden gem?ss Tabelle 2 auf Sklerotienbefall beurteilt. Zur Reifesch?tzung wurde jede Knolle der L?nge nach geschnitten und der Prozentsatz des Periderms notiert, das mit einer Pinzette entfernt werden konnte, wenn man am Kronenende begann. Die Kontrollpflanzen hatten bis Mitte September bei nur beschr?nkter lokaler Infektion durchR. solani (Abb. 1 und 2) relativ gesunde Untergrundsysteme. In den folgenden drei Wochen reiften die Knollenperiderme. Wurzeln und Stolonen wurden weitgehend vom Pilz besiedelt. Folglich ?nderte sich die N?hrstoffversorgung des Pilzes, eine Situation, von der man weiss, dass sie die Entwicklung zur Sklerotienbildung f?rdert. Mitte September widerspiegelt sich die ?nderung in der Ern?hrung in einem Ansteigen der Anzahl von Knollen mit Pocken und in deren Ausdehnung auf den Knollen (Abb. 3 und 4). Krautvernichtung mit S?ure Anfang August führte zu einer Zunahme der Pockenkrankheit, was anf?nglich auf eine Zunahme der Wurzel- und Stoloneninfektion, sp?ter aber auf den Grad der Knollenreife (Abb. 5) in Beziehung stand.: Sp?ter, im August, wurden die Krankheitszunahmen mit Knollen?nderungen wie mit Wurzel- und Stoloneninfektion gleichlaufend. Die S?ureanwendung Mitte September geschah an alternden Pflanzen und ?nderte das an Kontrollpflanzen beobachtete Infektionsbild wenig.

Résumé Cet article décrit l'évolution de la contamination, parRhizoctonia solani Kühn, des racines, stolons et tubercules de pommes de terre, et examine l'influence du défanage et de l'intervalle défanagerécolté sur une telle contamination. Des tubercules de la variété Majestic n'étant pas visuellement porteurs de sclérotes ont été inoculés à la couronne, juste avant la plantation, avec 4 souches deR. solani provenant de sclérotes sur tubercules de pommes de terre. Les tiges ont été ou n'ont pas été défanées à 5 dates différentes et on a récolté ensuite les tubercules à intervalles réguliers (tableau 1). Les fragments de racines et de stolons ont été lavés, placés sur une gelose à l'eau du robinet, contenant 50 mg de néomycin et de chloramphénicol par litre, et mis à incuber 48 heures à température ambiante avant notation de l'infection parR. solani. La notation des sclérotes sur tuberculesfils a été effectuée comme cela est indiqué dans le tableau 2. Comme estimation de la ‘maturité’ chaque tubercule a été coupé selon l'axe longitudinal et on a noté le pourcentage de périderme, en partant de la couronne qui a pu être enlevé avec des pinces. Les plantes témoins ont eu leurs systémes souterrains relativement sains jusqu'à la mi-septembre avec des contaminations locales parR. solani, limitées (figures 1 & 2). Les trois semaines suivantes, la maturité des tubercules a augmenté et les racines et stolons ont été fortement contaminés par le champignon. Le support nutritionnel du champignon a donc été altéré, cet élément connu permet de stimuler la maturité des sclérotes en cours de formation. Vers la mi-septembre, des changements nutritionnels se sont soldés par une augmentation du nombre de tubercules porteurs de sclérotes et par l'extension de ces derniers (figures 3 & 4). Le défanage aux colorants nitrés début ao?t a entrainé une augmentation des sclérotes, qui s'était manifestée initialement par une augmentation de la contamination des racines et stolons, et plus tard au niveau du degré de maturité du tubercule (figure 5). Plus tardivement en ao?t, l'augmentation des sclérotes allait de paire avec le changement de tubercule et avec la contamination des racines et stolons. Vers la mi-septembre, le défanage sur des plantes proches de la senescence a eu un léger effet sur la contamination des plantes témoins.

     

New techniques for the assessment and optimal management of growth and standing crop variation in the cultured freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii

The current ‘traditional’ prawn pond management system really does not ‘manage’, but rather accommodates prawn production characteristics and was instituted with a minimum knowledge of prawn biology and husbandry. As such, the traditional system is not optimal because it does not rely on a strong empirical knowledge base. Prawn culture has succeeded up until now because Macrobrachium rosenbergii is easily cultured and will give 500–1000 kg ha⁻¹ year⁻¹ without much effort. This is sufficient in many areas of the world but not in others where economic conditions have break-even production requirements of nearly 1 tonne greater than this. The traditional system relying on selective harvesting with large seine nets is seriously inefficient which not only leads to lost revenue but under-manages pond growth since unculled large animals suppress the growth of unculled smaller ones. The degree to which this occurs was not known to the designers of the traditional system who had no way of knowing (as we do now from our research results) the extremely large compensatory growth capability of small prawns in the absence of large ones. The traditional system also does not manage sexual dimorphic growth because no technology exists which can be used to create monosex broods or manipulate the sex ratio in ponds. Accurate production models are not available because traditional ponds are rarely sampled and/or rarely drained. This, along with inefficient harvests, results in a co-mingling of cohort stocking classes. It is impossible to get accurate survival and growth data because of this and because it is so time consuming to sample commercial ponds and process the data on a regular basis. This paper describes four new engineering and ‘bioengineering’ techniques which are under development and can overcome all the drawbacks of the traditional system: (1) surgical sex reversal to create monosex broods; (2) genetic tagging of stocking and resident cohorts to assess survival and growth; (3) size grading and 100% efficient harvesting using pond draining and a machine grader-harvester; and (4) a semi-automated computer assisted prawn sample data management system which uses sonic digitization of prawn sample data.     

Conceptus elongation in ruminants: roles of progesterone,prostaglandin, interferon tau and cortisol

The majority of pregnancy loss in ruminants occurs during the first three weeks after conception, particularly during the period of conceptus elongation that occurs prior to pregnancy recognition and implantation. This review integrates established and new information on the biological role of ovarian progesterone(P4), prostaglandins(PGs),interferon tau(IFNT) and cortisol in endometrial function and conceptus elongation. Progesterone is secreted by the ovarian corpus luteum(CL) and is the unequivocal hormone of pregnancy. Prostaglandins(PGs) and cortisol are produced by both the epithelial cells of the endometrium and the trophectoderm of the elongating conceptus. In contrast, IFNT is produced solely by the conceptus trophectoderm and is the maternal recognition of pregnancy signal that inhibits production of luteolytic pulses of PGF2αby the endometrium to maintain the CL and thus production of P4. Available results in sheep support the idea that the individual, interactive, and coordinated actions of P4, PGs, IFNT and cortisol regulate conceptus elongation and implantation by controlling expression of genes in the endometrium and/or trophectoderm. An increased knowledge of conceptus-endometrial interactions during early pregnancy in ruminants is necessary to understand and elucidate the causes of infertility and recurrent early pregnancy loss and provide new strategies to improve fertility and thus reproductive efficiency.     

Leptin, GH, PRL, Insulin and Metabolic Parameters Throughout the Dry Period and Lactation in Dairy Cows

Leptin may play a role in the endocrine-metabolic processes that guarantee the physiological course of lactation in dairy cattle. This study was aimed at determining the changes in plasma concentrations of leptin and some of the main hormones and metabolites involved in the lactogenetic process in high-yielding dairy cows throughout lactation; we also wanted to assess whether leptin secretion is subjected to seasonal influences. Blood samples were collected from 23 Italian Friesian dairy cows from the end of a lactation to the ninth month of the subsequent one; in addition, blood was sampled from 47 dairy cows in different phases of lactation during February and July. Plasma concentrations of leptin, growth hormone (GH), insulin, prolactin (PRL), glucose, non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) and urea were quantified by either validated radioimmunoassay (RIA) or enzymatic colorimetric methods. At the beginning of lactation, GH concentrations significantly increased, while a significant reduction occurred in leptin and insulin. This endocrine condition, such as the significant increase in NEFA plasma concentrations, is indicative of a marked lipid mobilization. In the more advanced stages of lactation, when both energy and protein balances become positive, leptin plasma concentrations increased, whereas GH and NEFA concentrations declined. During the summer months, a significant increase in leptin plasma concentrations, irrespective of the phase of lactation, was observed. Collectively, our findings suggest that, in dairy cows, leptin may represent a 'metabolic signal' of animal's status of fattening and nutritional level; in addition, leptin seems to be influenced by photoperiod and environmental temperature.
