Research Information Management in the United States : Part 1—Findings and Recommendations. Part 2—Case Studies

The Research Information Management in the United States two-part report series provides a first-of-its-kind documentation of RIM practices at US research universities that presents a thorough examination of RIM practices, goals, stakeholders, and system components. Research information management (RIM) is a rapidly growing area of investment in US research universities. While RIM practices are mature in Europe and other locales in support of nationalized reporting requirements, RIM practices at US research universities have taken a different—and characteristically decentralized—course. A complex environment characterized by multiple use cases, stakeholders, and systems has resulted. This report provides a landscape overview of the state of research information management in the United States, makes sense of the complexity, and offers recommendations targeted at University leaders and other institutional decision makers. Part 1—Findings and Recommendations This report provides much-needed context for institutional leaders to examine their own local practices by proposing: - A summary of six discrete RIM use cases - A RIM system framework - Recommendations for RIM stakeholders Part 2—Case Studies  This companion report offers an in-depth narrative of the RIM practices at five US research institutions:- Penn State University- Texas A&M University - Virginia Tech- UCLA- University of Miam

Parental environments and interactions with conspecifics alter salinity tolerance of offspring in the annual medicago truncatula

Summary: Based on expectations of the stress-gradient hypothesis for conspecific interactions, stress-sensitive genotypes may be able to persist in stressful environments when positive interactions between individuals occur under stressful environments. Additionally, we test how parental environmental effects alter responses to stress and outcomes of conspecific interactions in stress. While the stress-gradient hypothesis focuses on plant growth, earlier flowering may provide stress avoidance in short-lived organisms. We studied responses to soil salinity and conspecific neighbour using genotypes of Medicago truncatula (Fabaceae) originating from saline or non-saline environments, utilizing seeds from parental plants grown in saline or non-saline environments. During the early stages of reproduction, we quantified leaf number, as a measure of vegetative growth, and number of flowers, as a measure of early reproduction potential. Based on leaf counts, non-saline genotypes were better competitors than saline-origin genotypes and benefited from neighbouring plants in saline environments. This positive interaction was detected only when seeds were matured on parental plants grown in non-saline environments. Saline-origin genotypes displayed greater salinity tolerance in early flowering than non-saline genotypes. Plants with neighbours had greater early flowering, regardless of origin, consistent with facilitative interactions in stressful environments. Transgenerational plastic responses influenced neighbouring plant interactions on plant growth, and results suggest that facilitative interactions may be transient only persisting for one generation. However, earlier flowering of non-saline genotypes when grown with a neighbouring plant is consistent with facilitative interactions resulting in reproductive benefits in saline environments, if earlier flowering is favoured in saline environments. Synthesis. Adaptation to stressful environments allows tolerant genotypes to persist in these environments. Less appreciated is that stress-sensitive genotypes lacking such adaptations may persist in stressful environments via positive interactions with other individuals. Thus, positive interactions between individuals may explain the persistence of stress-sensitive genotypes within a population adapted to stressful environments. © 2013 British Ecological Society

Multiple post-domestication origins of kabuli chickpea through allelic variation in a diversification-associated transcription factor

Chickpea (Cicer arietinum) is among the founder crops domesticated in the Fertile Crescent. One of two major forms of chickpea, the so-called kabuli type, has white flowers and light-colored seed coats, properties not known to exist in the wild progenitor. The origin of the kabuli form has been enigmatic. We genotyped a collection of wild and cultivated chickpea genotypes with 538 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and examined patterns of molecular diversity relative to geographical sources and market types. In addition, we examined sequence and expression variation in candidate anthocyanin biosynthetic pathway genes. A reduction in genetic diversity and extensive genetic admixture distinguish cultivated chickpea from its wild progenitor species. Among germplasm, the kabuli form is polyphyletic. We identified a basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor at chickpea\u27s B locus that conditions flower and seed colors, orthologous to Mendel\u27s A gene of garden pea, whose loss of function is associated invariantly with the kabuli type of chickpea. From the polyphyletic distribution of the kabuli form in germplasm, an absence of nested variation within the bHLH gene and invariant association of loss of function of bHLH among the kabuli type, we conclude that the kabuli form arose multiple times during the phase of phenotypic diversification after initial domestication of cultivated chickpea

Atendimento odontológico e medidas preventivas para COVID-19 / Dental care and preventive measures for COVID-19

Introdução: A pandemia de repercussão mundial causada pela COVID-19 trouxe um alerta para os profissionais da Odontologia que precisaram adotar medidas de segurança extras para se prevenirem contra a infecção. Objetivo: O objetivo deste estudo foi, por meio de uma revisão da literatura, discutir medidas preventivas para minimizar e controlar a contaminação pelo COVID-19 em consultórios odontológicos. Materiais e métodos: Uma revisão da literatura foi realizada usando o PubMed e o Google Academic (entre 2019 e 2020) usando termos: “atendimento odontológico e COVID-19”, “controle infecções de na prática odontológica durante a pandemia”, “odontologia e medidas preventivas COVID-19” e “atendimento odontológico e medidas de proteção individual COVID-19”. Artigos que foram escritos sobre alterações orais específicas causadas por COVID-19 foram excluídos desta pesquisa. Resultados: Medidas de segurança foram adotadas para evitar o contágio de pessoas no consultório odontológico durante a pandemia, onde todos os pacientes que de atendimento de urgência passariam por medição da temperatura corporal, e uma anamnese mais detalhada sobre o estado geral de saúde dos últimos 7 dias. Os profissionais devem estar devidamente trajados com o uso de equipamentos de proteção individual, lavar as mãos antes e após os procedimentos e desinfetar todas as superfícies com hipoclorito de sódio e álcool 70%. Conclusão: A literatura evidencia que o cirurgião-dentista é um dos profissionais que corre maior risco de contaminação da COVID-19 devido produção de aerossóis. Portanto medidas de biossegurança e cuidados devem ser maiores a fim de minimizar a possibilidade de infecção.

Ejecta Evolution Following a Planned Impact into an Asteroid: The First Five Weeks

The impact of the DART spacecraft into Dimorphos, moon of the asteroid Didymos, changed Dimorphos' orbit substantially, largely from the ejection of material. We present results from twelve Earth-based facilities involved in a world-wide campaign to monitor the brightness and morphology of the ejecta in the first 35 days after impact. After an initial brightening of ~1.4 magnitudes, we find consistent dimming rates of 0.11-0.12 magnitudes/day in the first week, and 0.08-0.09 magnitudes/day over the entire study period. The system returned to its pre-impact brightness 24.3-25.3 days after impact through the primary ejecta tail remained. The dimming paused briefly eight days after impact, near in time to the appearance of the second tail. This was likely due to a secondary release of material after re-impact of a boulder released in the initial impact, through movement of the primary ejecta through the aperture likely played a role.Comment: 16 pages, 5 Figures, accepted in the Astrophysical Journal Letters (ApJL) on October 16, 202

Ejecta Evolution Following a Planned Impact into an Asteroid: The First Five Weeks

The impact of the Double Asteroid Redirection Test spacecraft into Dimorphos, moon of the asteroid Didymos, changed Dimorphos’s orbit substantially, largely from the ejection of material. We present results from 12 Earth-based facilities involved in a world-wide campaign to monitor the brightness and morphology of the ejecta in the first 35 days after impact. After an initial brightening of ∼1.4 mag, we find consistent dimming rates of 0.11–0.12 mag day−1 in the first week, and 0.08–0.09 mag day−1 over the entire study period. The system returned to its pre-impact brightness 24.3–25.3 days after impact though the primary ejecta tail remained. The dimming paused briefly eight days after impact, near in time to the appearance of the second tail. This was likely due to a secondary release of material after re-impact of a boulder released in the initial impact, though movement of the primary ejecta through the aperture likely played a role
