(23(4):273-283)PERFORMANCES OF HAWAIIAN PAPAYAS AND THEIR FIRST GENERATIONS (F1) OF CROSS HYBRIDS GROWN AT CHIA-YI, TAIWAN
No full text民國56年中華民國園藝作物考察團自夏威夷引進其外銷木瓜11品種，經嘉義農業試驗分所試種結果，認為其中之Kopoho，Sunrise與A5三品種生長與果實品質較優。本研究以此三者為觀察對象，獲悉臺灣嘉義地區之氣候條件，對夏威夷品種木瓜之影響甚為嚴重。由於每年自十月開始乾季，氣溫隨之遂漸降低，至翌年一、二月為最低（常達2˚或4℃）；三月中旬氣溫轉暖，五月開始雨季；在此長期乾燥與低溫之雙重影響下，植株生長，嚴重受阻，開花與結果數為之大減。又自十一月中旬以後至翌年三月中旬以前，平均溫度常在20℃以下，是時Kapoho品種所分化之花芽，具有性變(Sex Change)現象者，高達96%；果實經過低溫期發育者，自開花至成熟需160~237日，在高溫期則祗需132~146日；成熟果實之糖度，在高溫期為15~17˚(Brix)，在低溫期為9~11˚(Brix)，且果實表面常多斑點(Freclcles)，果肉中含有硬塊(Lump)，品質低劣，均無市場價值。據本研究結果，夏威夷品種木瓜在嘉義地區之氣候條件下，正常果實之採收期，約為四個月，僅及夏威夷之三分之一，而正常果實之產量，不及五分之一。
本研究用Kapoho, Sunrise與A5雜交後，其第一代(F1)之表現為：(1)植株矮性為顯性，(2)果肉黃色對紅色為顯性，(3)果肉含水量高之品種與含水量低者雜交後，第一代(F1)之果肉含水量有減少趨勢。
1. Among the papaya varieties of Hawaiian strains introduced from Hawaii in 1967, the Kapoho, Sunrise and A5 were found to be better in fruit qualities and more suitable to grow at Chia-Yi Agricultural Experiment Station, but each of the three varieties has shown the qualified satisfactions. The Kapoho variety has been, in most time, to have the first fruits very highly setting on the plants attributing to the vigorous growth of the young plants, and the fruits tended to be smaller; The Sunrise variety was to have its fruits with most water content, and the A5 variety, dwarfish in growth, selected from the seeds of some fruit bought in a super market in Honolulu, when the Author was in Hawaii in 1967, has been poor in yield and produced most carpellodic fruits attributing to the influence of the low temperature in the winter at Chia-Yi.
2. The low temperature in the winter at Chia-Yi, has evidently induced the production of sex changed flowers and carpellodic fruits formed on the tree. According to this experiment, it was found that the Hawaiian papayas could produce in the winter of the first cropping year, 27% of pentandria fruits, 69% of carpellodic or deformed fruits and 4% of normal fruits.
3. The fruits matured in 132-144 days since the flowers opened in the warm season, if the fruits developed through a period of cold weather, they would delayed to come to mature and 160-237 days were required.
4. Sugar content of the fruit developed during the cold season tended to decrease from
17-16° Brix to 11-9° Brix, when it matured. Fruits of different varieties had different
degrees of diminution of sugar content. The range of diminution of sugar content of the fruits of A5 was 40%; Sunrise, 30%; A5 × Sunrise (F1), 36% and Kapoho × A5 (F1), 37%, while that of the varieties grown at Waimanalo, Oahu, Hawaii was 3.5%.
Qualities of the fruits with diminished sugar content became much inferior.
5. Hermaphroditic plants of Kapoho variety was found to produce sex changed flowers at any season of the year. The lowest percentage of the sex Changed flowers opened in July was 1.6, while the highest percentage of the sex changed flowers opened in April was 100.
6. Average numbers of the normal fruits of the Sunrise, Kapoho and A5 varieties, harvested in the first cropping year were 47.8, 59.2, 46.0 respectively, but the average numbers of the normal fruits of the same varieties with the weights more than 300 grams, or suitable to the requirements of the market were 31.3, 16.0 and 16.0 respectively.
7. Perfomances of the F1 of cross-breeding with the Hawaiian varieties have shown as; (1) dwarf in plant growth is dominant, (2) yellow color of the fruit flesh is dominant over the red color, (3) water content of the fruit flesh tended to, diminish, when the variety of the lower water content crossed with the variety of the higher water content, (4) fruit size, shape, and yield tended to be intermediate between the parentages, (5) the average numbers of the normal fruits produced in the first cropping year by the varieties A5, Sunrise, A5 × Sunrise (F1) and Kapoho × A5 (F1) were 22.0, 34.5, 50.6 and 28.4 respectively. Yield of A5 × Sunrise (F1) is better. (6) Shipping qualities of the fruits of A5 × Sunrise (F1) and Kapoho × A5 (F1) were about the same as that of the Kapoho variety
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
SCLEROTIUM ROT OF TRAPA TAIWANENSIS NAKAI IN TAIWAN
No full textScierotium rot of Trapa Taiwadensis Nakai was found on September, 1980 in several Singhara-nut growing regions in southern Taiwan. Symptoms on the leaves first appeared as small, round, discolored and water-soaked spots. The spots gradually enlarged and coalesced with others to form large, irregular soft rot tissues. Dense mycelium and abundant sclerotia were produced on both surfaces of the leaves shortly after infection. The disease not only caused serious damage to the leaves, but also attacked the petioles and stems of the plants. From the symptoms, morphology of the pathogen and inoculation tests, it showed that this disease was caused by Scierotium rolfsii Saccardo. This is a new record of plant disease in Taiwan
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
