This work comprised of the comparative study of arsenic (As) uptake efficiency by Pteris vittata and Pityrogramma calomelanos grown in (i) As amended soils (0–600 ppm) and (ii) As tainted water (40 ppb) using a new compact continuous flow phytofiltration system in a tropical greenhouse. The As hyperaccumulation efficiency was dependent on the growth medium for the two fern species. The highest level of As detected in the fronds of P. vittata was 19,300 ± 190 ppm (dry weight basis) and 11,600 ± 230 ppm for Pityrogramma calomelanos, after growing for 78 days in soils amended with As. In the compact continuous flow As phytofiltration system experiments, Pityrogramma calomelanos was found to perform better than P. vittata in phytofiltrating As contaminated water under waterlogged conditions. During the 167 h of phytofiltration experiment, the removal efficiency was approximately 99% and 67% for Pityrogramma calomelanos and P. vittata systems respectively, based on an initial 40 ppb As. Pityrogramma calomelanos also required a shorter acclimatization time than P. vittata under waterlogged conditions.

Pityrogramma Calomelanos

Arsenic (As) is an ubiquitous trace metalloid found in all environmental media. Its presence at elevated concentrations in soils derives from both anthropogenic and natural inputs. Arsenic is a toxic and carcinogenic element, which has caused severe environmental and health problem worldwide. Technologies currently available for the remediation of arsenic-contaminated sites are expensive, environmentally disruptive, and potentially hazardous to workers. Phytoextraction, a strategy of phytoremediation, uses plants to clean up contaminated soils and has been successfully applied to arsenic contaminated soils. It has the advantage of being cost-effective and environmentally friendly. A major step towards the development of phytoextraction of arsenic-impacted soils is the discovery of the arsenic hyper accumulation in ferns, first in Pteris vittata, which presented an extraordinary capacity to accumulate 2.3% arsenic in its biomass. Another fern, Pityrogramma calomelanos was found to exhibit the same hyperaccumulating characteristics. After that, screening experiments have revealed that the Pteris genus is really unique in that many species have the potential to be used in phytoextraction of arsenic. In general, these plants seem to have both constitutive and adaptive mechanisms for accumulating or tolerating high arsenic concentration. In the past few years, much work has been done to understand and improve the hyperaccumulating capability of these amazing plants. In particular, the field of molecular biology seems to hold the key for the future of the phytoremediation.

Hyperaccumulator Plant

More and more attention has been paid to the research on phytoremediation and hyperaccumulators. Arsenic (As) uptake by hyperaccumulator plant species depends on many different environmental factors. Fertilizer is one of the most important factors because the plant growth needs nutrients. In this study, the pot experiments were conducted in 12 weeks to understand the effect of different fertilizer on As removal capacity of Pityrogramma calomelanos and Pteris vittata. The results showed that, Arsenic concentration in the frond is higher than that in the root of the fern. As removal efficiency of the ferns from the soil amended with both inorganic and organic fertilizer is highest. The ferns removed As content in soil up to 7.4 and 12.6 mg As per kg DW soil, respectively. For the control experiments without adding fertilizers, As removal ability of the ferns from the soil is lowest that was only 2.1 mg As per kg DW soil. Trên thế giới đã và đang có nhiều nghiên cứu, ứng dụng phương pháp sử dụng thực vật để xử lý ô nhiễm, đặc biệt là các loài thực vật siêu tích tụ kim loại nặng. Sự tích lũy Asen (As) trong các loài thực vật siêu tích lũy phụ thuộc vào rất nhiều yếu tố môi trường và dinh dưỡng khác nhau. Phân bón là một trong những yếu tố quan trọng nhất vì sự phát triển cây rất cần chất dinh dưỡng. Trong nghiên cứu này, các thí nghiệm được tiến hành trong 12 tuần để đánh giá về ảnh hưởng của các loại phân bón khác nhau đến khả năng xử lý ô nhiễm As trong đất của dương xỉ. Kết quả thu được cho thấy, nồng độ As tích lũy trong phần thân của dương xỉ cao hơn rất nhiều so với phần rễ của cây. Hiệu quả loại bỏ As ra khỏi đất của dương xỉ trong các thí nghiệm bổ sung cả phân bón vô cơ và phân bón hữu cơ là cao nhất. Pityrogramma calomelanos và Pteris vittata có thể loại bỏ hàm lượng As trong 1 kg trọng lượng khô đất tương ứng lên đến 7,4 và 12,6 mg. Các công thức thí nghiệm đối chứng không bổ sung phân bón thì cho hiệu quả loại bỏ As ra khỏi đất là thấp nhất chỉ 2,1 mg As trên 1 kg trọng lượng khô đất.

The aim of this research is; 1) investigating the level of online learning satisfaction among students during COVID 19; 2) analyzing the influence of differences in gender, years of study, major in determining online learning satisfaction among students during COVID 19; 3) to analyze the relationship between online learning satisfaction and student academic achievement during COVID 19. The population was 656 students at STKIP Singkawang, and then a sample of 357 students (87 males and 270 females) was taken using a simple random sampling technique. The instrument in this study was adapted from Aman's Satisfaction instrument, which was then used to collect research data. Data analysis using SPSS with descriptive statistical techniques, MANOVA, and correlation. The results showed that online learning satisfaction was at a high level, meaning that students were satisfied with the online learning that had been implemented. The major differences have a significant effect on determining online learning satisfaction. Intercorrelation shows that there is a significant relationship on each indicator of online learning satisfaction with academic achievement, meaning that the higher the satisfaction felt by students in online learning, the student's academic achievement will increase.

Abstract Many years ago, Emmanuel Todd came up with a classification of family types and argued that the historically prevalent family types in a society have important consequences for its economic, political, and social development. Here, we evaluate Todd's most important predictions empirically. Relying on a parsimonious model with exogenous covariates, we find mixed results. On the one hand, authoritarian family types are, in stark contrast to Todd's predictions, associated with increased levels of the rule of law and innovation. On the other hand, and in line with Todd's expectations, communitarian family types are linked to racism, low levels of the rule of law, and late industrialization. Countries in which endogamy is frequently practiced also display an expectedly high level of state fragility and weak civil society organizations.

Variability in the host-reaction of barley to infection by Drechslera teres was examined in the parents and progeny of selected crosses under different environmental conditions of testing.The Ethiopian variety C.I. 5791 exhibits a consistently high level of resistance under a range of environmental conditions, which is in contrast to the Manchurian variety C.I. 2330. The sensitivity of the genes for resistance possessed by these varieties to environmental modifications is considered to depend upon their respective genetic backgrounds. Furthermore, variability of host reaction in the progeny of these resistant varieties was shown to be influenced by the genetic background of the susceptible parent used.The implications of these findings in the conduct and interpretation of genetic studies and in backcross breeding programs is discussed.
