In the current study, a single double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) molecule of 2531 nts was detected, sequenced and characterized from an Egyptian isolate (D7) of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum fungus. The dsRNA has one open reading frame (ORF), in its positive strand, encoding a protein with conserved motifs characteristic of viral RNA-dependent RNA-polymerases (RdRps). The RdRp encoded by the ORF shares 91.84% identity with that of isolate HC025 of sclerotinia sclerotiorum mitovirus 1 (SsMV1) and consequently it was tentatively named SsMV1-D7. As for previously described mitoviruses, the termini of the (+) strand of SsMV1-D7 RNA could potentially fold into stable secondary structures.

Based on a clinical case from our work setting, this article describes relevant literature regarding dissociation and dissociative disorders to add to the knowledge of the theoretical and phenomenological features of complex dissociative disorders. Further, we describe differential diagnostic challenges that may arise in clinical practice. Methods: Both systematic and non-systematic literature searches were performed. Findings: Recent research shows the Trauma model to be central to understanding dissociative disorders. Symptoms can be mistaken for cognitive difficulties, oppositional issues or other somatic symptoms. Quantitative measures, systematic observations and clinical evaluations are fundamental for identifying dissociative symptoms and disorders. Implications: There is potential for identifying and evaluating dissociative symptoms at an earlier stage. Interdisciplinary and differential diagnostic evaluations are crucial to provide adequate understanding, assessment, and treatment of these patients. \u0000Keywords: Dissociative identity disorder, dissociation, somnambulism, biopsychosocial framework, clinical practice","PeriodicalId":8656,"journal":{"name":"August 1985","volume":"32 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73246121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Field experiments were conducted at the experimental fields of Eastern Mediterranean Agricultural Research Institute (Dogankent-Adana) in the years 2016 and 2017 under second-crop conditions (June-October) in a randomized complete block design with four replications. Average green herbage yield, dry matter yield, crude protein yield, crude protein (CP) ratio, neutral detergent fiber (NDF), acid detergent fiber (ADF), dry matter intake (DMI) and relative feed value (RFV) varied between 151.5-188.7 Mg ha−1; 46.6-61.2 Mg ha−1; 2166-2905 kg ha−1; 4.08-5.22%, 39.11-43.10%, 24.31-28.36%, 2.81-3.11%, and 148.3-168.4. Present findings revealed that M81-E, Topper-76, UNL hybrid and No91 varieties were higher with herbage and DM yield while Ramada and Roma were higher with silage quality attributes. It was observed that the sweet sorghum varieties at second-crop growing period (JuneOctober) under Eastern Mediterranean (Adana) conditions for 100-120 days had green herbage, dry matter and crude protein yields more than 180 Mg ha−1, 50 Mg ha−1 and 2300 kg ha−1, respectively.

The study was performed for genetic evaluation of linear type traits and explore their relationships with milk production traits of Nili Ravi buffaloes. Data on Nili Ravi Buffaloes (n=437) present at 5 experimental livestocks farms in Punjab, Pakistan were recorded for linear type traits follwoing ICAR gudelines and adopting a linear scale of 1-9 during 2010-2012 encompassing 1180 records for each trait. A mixed effect model was applied where herd, year, parity, season were fitted as fixed effects and age as covariable. All analyses were performed by using Proc GLM of the SAS software. Variance components were estimated by ASREML software and genetic parameters were computed by post-processing. Least square means for linear scores of stature, chest width, body depth, angularity, rump angle and rump width were 5.07±1.35, 5.23±2.35, 5.41±1.49, 5.76±0.98, 6.73±1.53, 4.91±1.85, respectively.

Sausages were prepared by employing the hurdle technology that includes mixing of minced buffalo meat and 20% fat with spice mixture, ascorbic acid, 0.5% Nitrite-NaCl, phosphate, 5% potassium ascorbate spray. Sausages were stored at refrigerated (2±2 °C) and in an incubator to mimic high ambient temperature (35±2 °C) until 11 days or acceptable limits. The data were analyzed through factorial ANOVA. Results show that hurdle treatment collectively increased the shelf life by significantly reducing quality deterioration during storage. Lowest color lightness (L*) values were recorded in animal-based fat sausages, while the redness (a*) values were increased during the storage, and maximum values were observed during storage at ambient temperature. Sheep tail fat sausages exhibited the highest TBARs and TVC values. Similarly, storage temperature and duration affected the quality characteristics, samples stored at an ambient temperature markedly increased the TBARS, TVC and color throughout the storage duration, whereas Aw value decreased. Palm kernel butterfat (PKBF) sausages show higher lightness (L*) and yellowness (b*) values and lower redness(a*) values than buffalo kidney, pelvic, heart (KPH) fat and sheep tail fat (STF) sausages. PKBF sausages showed lowest TVC values represented in terms of log cfu/g while the highest values were observed in STF sausages; however, KPH sausages showed mediate values. Based on these results, it was concluded that sausages made from palm kernel butter fat showed the highest shelf life as compared to the animal source fat sources.","PeriodicalId":8656,"journal":{"name":"August 1985","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86946168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, this preliminary study was designed to measure clinically important landmarks in the skull of adult Beetal goat in both sex as an attempt to provide a baseline data. Skulls (n=20) of Beetal goats (10 each of males and females) were used in the study. The skulls of both sexes were collected from apparently clinically healthy goats after slaughtering at an abattoir and treated according to the hot water maceration procedures. Biometric parameters were measured with the help of a digital vernier calliper. Descriptive statistics of the measured skull parameters did not show statistically significant differences between male and female adult Beetal goat.
