    4.2. Description of Bradyrhizobium oropedii sp. nov. Bradyrhizobium oropedii (o.ro.pe’ di.i. Gr. neut. n. oropedion mountain plain; N.L. gen. n. oropedii, of the central Southern African plateau, from where the species was isolated). Cells are motile, Gram-negative, rod shaped and approximately 1.87 × 0.48 μm in size. Growth occurs on YMA at 28 ◦ C after 7 days and colonies are translucent to opaque, circular, convex and cream in colour. Grows at pH values ranging from 5 to 10 and at temperatures ranging from 15 to 35 ◦ C. Isolates are unable to grow in the presence of more than 0.5% NaCl (w/v). Strains tested positive for oxidase, catalase, urease and β- glucosidase activity as well as the production of Tween 40 and Tween 80. Tested positive for the following carbon sources: Dfructose, L-fructose, D-gluconic acid, D-mannitol, α and β- hydroxy butyric acid, p-hydroxy phenylacetic acid, L-alaninamide, L-lactic acid, L-leucine, D-saccharic acid, and urocanic acid. Negative reactions were recorded for indole production and the assimilation of capric acid, adipic acid, malic acid, glycogen, α- D-lactose, N-acetyl-D-galactosamine, α- cyclodextrin, Adonitol, D-cellobiose, D-raffinose, i-erythritol, maltose, lactulose, D-melibiose, sucrose, D-trehalose, turanose, xylitol, L-threonine, uridine, inosine, thymine, glucose-1-phosphate and glucose-6-phosphate, and m-inositol. Resistant to ampicillin (10 μg/ml), chloramphenicol (30 μg/ml), tetracycline (30 μg/ml), penicillin (10 μg/ ml), and susceptible to streptomycin (25 μg/ml). The type strain, Pear76 T (=SARCC 731 = LMG 31408) was isolated from root nodules of Pearsonia obovata in the Dullstroom area of the Mpumalanga Province, South Africa and forms effective nodules on cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) and siratro (Macroptilium atropurpureum). The DNA G + Ccontent of the type strain is 63.5 mol%. GenBank/ EMBL/DDBJ accession numbers for the genome sequence and the gene sequences of this type strain are: whole genome (JACMYO000000000) and 16S rRNA (LR877297), atpD (LN650103), glnII (LN650145), dnaK (LN650124), gyrB (LN650208), rpoB (LN650187) and nodA (LN650250).Published as part of Avontuur, Juanita R., Palmer, Marike, Beukes, Chrizelle W., Chan, Wai Y., Tasiya, Taponeswa, Zyl, Elritha van, Coetzee, Martin P.

    Językowe sposoby wyrażania ekspresji. Tomasz Raczek o dziennikarzach

    No full text
    In the first part of the text entitled Linguistic methods of expressing emotions. Tomasz Raczek about journalist, the author presents Tomasz Raczek’s writing, in particular his feature articles, where the columnist refers to the contemporary social life from the perspective of film and television criticism. In the subsequent parts of the text, the author describes selected components of the history of feature articles and presents some definitions of a feature article, and then focuses on the linguistic aspects of a subjective way of expressing the emotions and feelings accompanying the description of mass media personalities. The author pays a special attention to the techniques used by Raczek, for example putting things very close together in order to show a contrast, using metaphors and anglicisms to describe media personalities. In the last part of the text, the author juxtaposes the previously described techniques of the columnist, sums up the discussions on the linguistic methods of expressing emotions and feelings in Tomasz Raczek’s feature articles

    No full text
    Tomasz Zamoyski died on the 8th of January 1638 (born on the 1st of April 1594). The text is a presentation and analysis of four, conceptual and funeral orations, which were written by: Stanisław Szałapski SJ, Bartłomiej Sylwiusz SJ, Marek Korona and Mikołaj Ławrynowicz. The first part of the article is a presentation of conceptual structure of orations and as well as analysis of titles and role of mottos from Bible. The second part of article describes Tomasz Zamoyski’s glowing effigy. Author uses rhetorical scheme laudatio personae, which was constructed from circumstances inner (family stock, ancestors, birth, education, attributes of body and soul, actions) and external (family, friends, descendants, time of his life, types of death). Orators built the glowing effigy of Tomasz Zamoyski, and his life presents a humanistic model of human and citizen

    The Experience of “the Other World” in Tomasz Różycki’s Poetry

    No full text
    One of the important ontological assumptions of the poetic reality created in Tomasz Różycki’s poems is the multiplication of reality. The article aims to describe one of the characteristic “anti-worlds” in his work – the world of the dead. Within the analytical framework the author of the article placed the presumable lyrical ego’s ability to penetrate the borders of death and his relationships with “the other side” of [email protected] Chomiuk, dr hab., prof.

    Między dominacją a potrzebą intymności. Recenzja książki „Tomasz Domański. Pomniki czasu 1992–2018”

    No full text
    The author undertakes to review the book Tomasz Domanski. Pomniki czasu 1992–2018 (Tomasz Domanski. Monuments of the Time 1992–2018), which she examines from two perspectives. She combines the formal qualities of the publication with the formal features of Domanski’s work and situates them in the field of such qualities as masculinity, power, strength, domination. On the other hand, in the non-standard form of The Illustrated Biography and the inclusion in the book of a photocopy of Domanski’s personal correspondence, diploma, student identity card, collected press clippings and private photographs, the author sees the artist’s need, incompatible with his domineering rhetoric of the publication, to tell his personal story going beyond problems of an artistic nature. The use of personal memorabilia and artefacts the author combines with the so-called turn to things, a methodology that is gaining popularity in contemporary humanities. On the occasion of the review of the book, the author examines Tomasz Domanski’s work over the years, demonstrating inspirations from the American art of the 1960s and 1970s. She points to the usefulness of the methodological model of the Sculpture in the Expanded Field by Rosalind E. Krauss, paying also attention to the postminimalistic or conceptual character of the materials used by Domanski (ice and wax subject to dematerialization)

    Semi‐parametric accelerated failure‐time model: A useful alternative to the proportional‐hazards model in cancer clinical trials

    No full text
    The accelerated failure-time (AFT) model has been long recognized as a useful alternative to the proportional-hazards (PH) model. Semi-parametric AFT model has been known since 1981. Its use has been hampered by the difficulty in solving the estimating equations for the model's coefficients. In recent years, however, important developments have taken place regarding the methods of solving the equations. In this article, we briefly review the developments, focusing mainly on rank-based estimation. We conduct a simulation study that directly focuses on the applicability of the model in the context of (cancer) clinical trials. We also investigate the robustness of the AFT model to the omission of covariates. Finally, we conduct a meta-analysis of multiple clinical trials in gastric cancer to illustrate the benefits of the use of the model in practice.The author thanks the GASTRIC (Global Advanced/Adjuvant Stomach Tumor Research International Collaboration) Group for permission to use their data.
