By employing Lyapunov’s direct method, a complete Lyapunov function was used to investigate the stability of the system. Krasnoselskii’s fixed point theorem was used to establish sufficient conditions that guaranteed the existence and boundedness of a unique solution. The results show that the equilibrium point was asymptotically stable. Furthermore, a test for periodicity was conducted using the Bendixson criterion, and the results showed that the solution of the second-order nonlinear differential equation is aperiodic, which extends some results from the literature.","PeriodicalId":8933,"journal":{"name":"Biometrical Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134956889","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}

Oat is rich in β− glucans, and high in tocopherol and other dietary fibre components. It is also used for forage, fodder, chaff and as a major component of infant foods. In the present study, oat yields from six experimental stations in south-western Poland, obtained in 2019–2022, were analysed using three different linear mixed models that can be associated with three different stabilities. It is shown that the geno-type Perun had the highest mean yield among the tested genotypes, while the genotype Armani was the most stable. Armani and Pablo had the lowest values of the GSI index, making them the most favourable genotypes for cultivation in that region.","PeriodicalId":8933,"journal":{"name":"Biometrical Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134957728","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}

It was formulated by fitting a Johnson–Schumacher (JS) function to the split-plot model mean function. The fitted model parameters are estimated using the estimated generalized least squares (EGLS) technique based on a Gauss–Newton procedure with Taylor series expansion, by minimizing the objective function of the model. The variance components for the whole plot and subplot random effects are estimated using restricted maximum likelihood estimation (REML) techniques. The adequacy of the fitted INSPDM was tested using four median adequacy measures: resistant coefficient of determination, resistant prediction coefficient of determination, the resistant modeling efficiency statistic, and the median square error prediction statistic based on the residuals of the fitted model. Akaike’s Information Criterion (AIC), Corrected Akaike’s Information Criterion (AICC) and Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) statistics are used to select the best parameter estimation technique. The results obtained are compared with the techniques of ordinary least squares (OLS) and EGLS via maximum likelihood estimation (MLE). The results showed the model to be adequate, reliable, stable, and a good fit based on EGLS-REML when compared with OLS and EGLS-MLE fitted model parameter estimates.","PeriodicalId":8933,"journal":{"name":"Biometrical Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76859025","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}

It spreads through direct contact with saliva or respiratory droplets from the mouth, nose or throat of infected persons. In this work, we present a mathematical model which describes the dynamics of the disease in a human population. The model incorporates isolation and treatment of infected individuals as a control measure. It is shown that the disease-free equilibrium (DFE) is locally and globally asymptotically stable when the control reproduction number Rc is less than one. It is also shown that the model has a unique endemic equilibrium which exists when Rc > 1. The existence of a unique endemic equilibrium confirms the global stability of the DFE, and the absence of backward bifurcation in the model. Optimal control analysis is performed on the model to obtain the proportion of infected humans to be isolated for optimal control of the disease. Plots are presented to show the dynamics of the disease in the presence of the control measures.","PeriodicalId":8933,"journal":{"name":"Biometrical Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72775409","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}

Severe plant infection contributes to a decrease in the quality of the crop. It is therefore important to pay attention to whether hybrids are highly tolerant to this fungal disease at the early stages of breeding. In this study, the question of interest is whether there has been progress in increasing the tolerance of new hybrids to this pathogen. Three years of breeding experiments (2014, 2015, 2017) are included in the analysis. Each year, three to five experiments were carried out, with several dozen varieties and three standards. Each series of experiments was repeated in several locations. Because the degree of infection was assessed on a scale (from 1 – the highest infection – to 9 – the least infection), the analysis is carried out using an ordinal logistic model. It is noted that in earlier years the standard varieties’ probability of infection with this disease had a smaller range (empirical probability 0.5–0.83) than in the last analyzed year (empirical probability 0.33–1.00). The results of the analysis show that in 2014 and 2015 several hybrids exhibited a significantly higher tolerance to Sclerotinia, but in 2017 none of the hybrids were significantly better than the standard. Perhaps breeding selection of hybrids has eliminated the less tolerant varieties. However, to be able to draw more general conclusions, it would be necessary to repeat the study in controlled conditions (a greenhouse), where the level of fungal spores and their effect on plants could be controlled. Obtaining tolerant hybrids will enable a reduction in production costs, since there will be no need to monitor whether disease infestation occurs and no need to use corresponding plant protection products.","PeriodicalId":8933,"journal":{"name":"Biometrical Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82005421","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}
