Due to increasing demands and attributes of this fruit in recent years locally and internationally, the species has great potential to be commercialized. Selecting an appropriate substrate is one of the most pivotal stages in producing quality seedlings in a nursery. Consequently, the present study focuses on evaluating the synergistic effects of the substrate composition with effective microorganisms, i.e., Trichoderma harzianum, Bacillus subtilis, and Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), and in all possible combinations, on the growth and development of the A. odoratissimus seedlings. The pot experiment was designed following the Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with eight replications per treatment. Among the substrates, significantly higher (p<0.05) plant height was recorded in the seedlings treated with combined inoculants, T7 (Soil + AMF + T. harzianum + B. subtilis) at 47.13±10.80 cm or in a single inoculant, T3 (Soil + B. subtilis) at 46.83±2.63 cm. Subsequently, T7 and T3 have significantly improved the collar diameter and leaf area of A. odoratissimus seedlings. Concerning the physiological parameters, the synergistic triple treatment (T7) improved the underground fresh and dry biomass production at 32.33±3.21 g and 11.66±1.08 g, respectively. The same combination exhibited a more significant (p<0.05) Dickson’s Quality Index (0.72±0.03), improving the original development of A. odoratissimus seedlings. Microbial application tended to mitigate ion imbalances in plants and significantly affected the soil total nitrogen, available P, and available K and pH. These effects were most prominent in the treatments comprising triple inoculations of T7. Results suggest that the combination of T. harzianum, B. subtilis, and AMF leads to interactions that may potentially improve seedling development and crop productivity in A. odoratissimus.","PeriodicalId":9884,"journal":{"name":"Chiang Mai Journal of Science","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139200214","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The synthesis of these compounds can be achieved through intramolecular Diels-Alder reactions on cinnamyl cinnamate ester derivatives. Furthermore, this ester is commonly synthesized through an esterification reaction between cinnamoyl halide and cinnamyl alcohol. In this study, cinnamyl cinnamate only produced a 41% yield, while a nearly quantitative yield of 98% was obtained using the Steglich reaction with N,N’-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and 4-dimethylaminopyridine. This reaction was used to synthesize eight cinnamyl cinnamate ester derivatives, which consisted of methylenedioxy and trimethoxy groups, following a combinatorial synthesis. 3,4-Methylenedioxy- and 3,4,5-trimethoxycinnamyl alcohols were obtained by reducing methyl 3,4-methylenedioxycinnamate and 3,4,5-trimethoxycinnamic acid, respectively. The results showed that the ester yields were excellent, except for the ester derivatives of 3,4,5-trimethoxycinnamyl alcohol. This alcohol was unstable during column chromatography, leading to the direct esterification of the crude reduction products. A side product with Rf adjacent to the ester was obtained, thereby reducing the ester yield. The identification of this by-product and the intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction on the products obtained were described in this study. Computational studies showed that transforming reactants into products led to the production of one intermediate compound and two transition states (TS). Each TS represented the intramolecular Diels-Alder cycloaddition reaction and migration of [1,3]-hydrogen. Thermodynamic studies consistently revealed that a solvent environment could effectively reduce the activation energy associated with a chemical process.","PeriodicalId":9884,"journal":{"name":"Chiang Mai Journal of Science","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139208639","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this research, we examine the spatiotemporal variability of particulate matter components using contemporary functional data analysis techniques. The technique models the yearly pollutant profiles to describe their dynamic behavior over time and location. These cutting-edge methods offer dimension reduction for better data display and permit us to forecast annual profiles for locations and years for which data are lacking. In order to accurately estimate hourly ozone concentrations for 12 stations in China over two years (2015-2016), this study set out to showcase the best prediction models currently available. To accurately predict Ozone concentration, several methods are used, including Kernel Functional Classical Estimation (KFCE), Kernel Functional Quantile estimation (KFQE), Semi-Partial Linear Functional Classical Estimation (SPLFCE), Semi-Partial Linear Functional Quantile Estimation (SPLFQE), and Semi-Partial Linear Functional Expectile Estimation (SPLFEE). These functional models were chosen based on their ability to establish a forecast region with a given level of confidence. In terms of prediction accuracy, we may conclude that the Semi-Partial linear models outperform conventional models.","PeriodicalId":9884,"journal":{"name":"Chiang Mai Journal of Science","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139209038","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The cleavage of aspartame was catalyzed by CHY to produce methanol that was converted by AOX to formaldehyde and hydrogen peroxide. The formed hydrogen peroxide was detected amperometrically at a platinum electrode. The biosensor performance was optimized with respect to enzyme immobilization and operating conditions. The most suitable conditions for enzyme immobilization were 250 U/mL CHY and 100 U/mL AOX with 60 min immobilization time.
