The study includes data collected from 25 participants, 23 students and 2 professors, from the Monterey Institute of International Studies (MIIS). A combination of classroom observations, interviews, and questionnaires were used to collect data. The data were triangulated to determine if the participants’ views reflected their actual classroom practices. The data show that while some students found comfort in L1 use, others felt threatened by the L1 and viewed it as an interference. Furthermore, the professors respected their students’ views and thus attempted to use the L1 accordingly. Rather than relying on the L1 to facilitate all communication, the professors and students alike included the L1 in their repertoire of learning and teaching strategies. This study suggests that the participants understand the value of L1 but realize that it is not the only tool available", "language": "eng", "license": null, "keywords": [], "section": "Theme Section - Feature Articles", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0rd1d48x", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Patrick", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Gaebler", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Monterey Institute of International Studies", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2014-01-01T20:00:00+02:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/catesoljournal/article/36125/galley/26977/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 36137, "title": "Learning English for Academic Purposes: LEAP: Reading and Writing (2nd ed.) - Julia Williams", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "", "language": "eng", "license": null, "keywords": [], "section": "Book and Media Review", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3vx429hz", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Mauricio", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Gonçalves", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "California State University, Fullerton", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2014-01-01T20:00:00+02:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/catesoljournal/article/36137/galley/26989/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 36123, "title": "Leveling the Playing Field: The Efficacy of Thinking Maps on English Language Learner Students’ Writing", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Many students, especially English language learners (ELLs), struggle with writing expository texts. This study examined the impact of several writing strategies on ELLs’ writing skills, including prewriting strategies and scaffolding strategies inherent in the Thinking Maps (TM) program. The purpose of the study was to see if ELLs were able to use these strategies to express their ideas more effectively in compositions in a more organized way. The participants were 8 students in grades 3 through 5 in the South Bay School District. The students were participating in an after-school writing class 2 days a week for 6 months.

In this study, we tested the acquisition and transmission efficiency of Las by\n \nstriped mealybugs (\nFerrisia virgata\n) (Pseudococcidae; Hemiptera), another phloem-sap feeding insect with a broad host range of 264 species in 68 plant families. In our previous report, 63.0 % of striped mealybugs collected from the Las-infected periwinkle plants in USHRL greenhouse tested positive for Las using the HLBasp primers and probe, and the Las populations were estimated at 3.11 x 103 to 2.32 x 105 cells per mealybug. This was confirmed using conventional PCR with six primer sets targeting different Las loci and by the 100% identity of all seven PCR amplicons to the known Las sequences. However, attempts to transmit the disease in periwinkle and citrus using Las-infected mealybugs were not successful. To reveal the reason why Las-infected mealybugs were not able to transmit the disease, we used a leaf-disc bioassay in conjunction with typing of Las populations. Positive Las results were found in 100% of the mealybugs after feeding for 1-2 weeks on infected leaf discs that were obtained from infected periwinkle and citrus leaves. In addition, Las bacteria were detected in mealybug gut, salivary glands and body cavity, with the titer in the gut and body being higher than that in the salivary glands. It is of interest to note that mealybugs grown on infected leaf-discs for 1 week and then transferred to non-infected leaf-discs did not test positive for Las. However, mealybugs grown on infected leaf-discs for 2 weeks and then transferred to non-infected leaf-discs for 2 more weeks remained positive for Las. These results indicate that striped mealybugs share similarities and differences in comparison with the Asian citrus psyllids in terms of acquisition and/or transmission of the Las bacterium.", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

In olfactometer assays, fir oil was repellent; clove and camphor oils were attractive; and litsea and citronella oils elicited no response from ACP females. In no-choice settling experiments, neither the low nor high fir oil treatment deterred ACP from settling. Subsequently, ACP were presented with a choice test between control plants and fir oil plants with a single dose of fir oil contained in a polyethylene vial. In this case, ACP disproportionately settled on control plants, avoiding fir oil baited trees completely. Finally, we conducted a field trial using yellow sticky traps baited with a high or low dose of clove or camphor oil deployed from seven mL polyethylene vials. We expected that the botanical oil baited yellow traps would catch more ACP than unbaited controls. There was no significant increase in trap capture over the course of our experiment in male, female, or total ACP capture. We hypothesize that this result may have been caused by sub-optimal release rates or the overriding visual cue elicited by yellow sticky traps.

When asked, the growers invariably report that they are controlling ACP and it is obvious that the control programs are reducing the level of ACP in the groves. However there is an outstanding question as to whether the levels of ACP are being reduced enough to limit the spread of HLB. In most cases, growers have not implemented ACP scouting programs so the level of infestation is based on rough grove surveys and feelings. Even if scouting programs are in place, there are no established data-based thresholds to trigger additional applications of pesticides resulting in a “chasing” approach where applications are made after an infestation is found. Southern Gardens has had an ACP and HLB scouting program in place for many years. By comparing the annual ACP levels to resulting HLB infection succeeding years, it may be possible to elucidate thresholds and then design ACP control programs that effectively limit the spread of HLB. Data will be presented for three years of ACP scouting and four years of HLB scouting in an attempt to show the level of control that must be achieved in order to limit the spread of HLB. The bottom line is that control thresholds are very low and the level of ACP control that must be achieved in order to limit spread HLB is much lower than most growers realize.", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

The etiology of HLB worldwide is associated with three insect-transmissible phloem-limited members of the bacterial group ‘\nCandidatus\n Liberibacter spp.’, prevalently ‘\nCandidatus\n Liberibacter asiaticus’ (Las). All citrus cultivars are susceptible to HLB. To better understand the physiological and molecular processes involved in host responses to Las, proteomic analyses via 2-DE and mass spectrometry as well as ICP spectroscopy analysis were employed to elucidate protein expression profiles in leaves of Las-infected grapefruit and lemon plants at presymptomatic and symptomatic stages of the disease. Las-mediated down-regulation of 56 proteins including those associated with photosynthesis, protein synthesis, and metabolism was correlated with significant reductions in the concentrations of Ca, Mg, Fe, Zn, Mn, and Cu, especially in symptomatic plants. Interestingly, Las-mediated up-regulation of 13 proteins including those associated with pathogen response, redox-homeostasis, and starch anabolism was correlated with an increase in K concentration in pre-symptomatic and symptomatic plants. Since starch synthase requires K for activation, this result highlights a coordinated accumulation of granule-bound starch synthase and K in Las-infected plants. Analysis of host responses to HLB provides new information concerning physiological and biochemical processes of citrus to HLB. Those proteins that are up regulated specifically in response to Las infection could be useful biomarkers to develop a host-based diagnostic tool for early detection of HLB-affected citrus plants.", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

Most importantly, even if the most effective psyllid repellent is utilized, its field performance may be less than desired if the most effective method of delivery is not employed. A system approach is required – the volatile repellent must be “matched” to the delivery methodology – to achieve the optimal overall repellency system, which also requires a physicochemical and engineering understanding of the repellency system employed to provide the sought-after control strategy. This presentation will examine both wax-based and vapor-based dispensing approaches. The volatile substances released from wax-based formulations are analogous to “contact repellents”, whereas those released from vapor-based systems function as “spatial repellents” – two different approaches for delivery of volatile repellent compounds.

Typically, this type of data is gridded and the average disease intensity of the plants within the grid is used instead of the original data on each separate plant. This is done because the underlying statistical assumptions in the analysis of spatial data usually require that data be equally spaced. However, a new method of analysis, sometimes called second-generation wavelet analysis, can be used on irregularly spaced spatial data. Wavelet analysis is a method used to analyze variations in scale and position of non-stationary spatial signals (non-stationary for our data means the statistical properties can vary based on location within the orchard), and the second-generation refers to an iterative process, called a lifting scheme (1), which allows for the irregular spacing. Irregular spacing is often found in citrus groves as spacing within and between rows is often not uniform, and on a larger spatial scale, distance between blocks and plantings are not necessarily simple multiples of distances between rows and trees. In addition, there are a number of other issues such as missing trees, the presence of irregular roads, ponds, staging areas, etc., that cause citrus groves to have irregular distances between trees when viewed at the plantation or regional scale.

In today’s forests, these entanglements between the forest landscape and the nation acquire a strange and unhomely twist: in former East German states, such as Brandenburg and Thuringia, asylum seekers—many of them from Africa—find themselves living on the ruins of abandoned military barracks in the forest. Their isolation in the forest is the outcome of post-unification asylum policies that responded to a heated nation-wide asylum debate and xenophobic attacks against urban refugee shelters in the 1990s, by relocating refugees to remote new ‘homes’ in rural East Germany—often on former military barracks in the forest.\n \nEngaging with \nForst\n, a documentary film produced in collaboration between refugees and European film-makers, this article asks about the possibilities of a mode of analysis that follows Schama’s call to embark on a track through the woods and shed light on contemporary entanglements between landscape, race and nationalism. \nForst\n breaks with documentary—and ethnographic—conventions of creating empathy via the portrayal of individual life stories, or “cases”. Instead, the film situates its story almost entirely in the claustrophobic environment of a gloomy forest in which refugees live.

One of the limitations in obtaining genetically resistant citrus plants to HLB is how lengthy it is to propagate and evaluate the transgenic plants. Using grafting with infected budwood takes several months, is labor intensive and normally requires specialized greenhouse space which can be limited. We have developed a system to quickly screen AtNPR1 transgenic lines and determine if they exhibit an enhanced defense response to \nCandidatus\n Liberibacter asiaticus PAMPs. First, we used a synthetic peptide of L-flg22 (22 amino acid flagellin epitope derived from CLas) capable of triggering immunity in citrus. Second, using real time PCR, we determined changes in the expression levels of a battery of genes associated with defense in citrus in a time course of up to 72 hours after infiltration with L-flg22 and compared it with the expression in wild type plants. Certain lines consistently showed an enhanced defense response when exposed to L-flg22 thus identifying the ones with the most potential. The advantage of this method as a first step in the screening process is that is quick, controlled and does not require specialized greenhouse space.

As a vector of the pathogen associated with Huanglongbing (HLB), spread of this insect puts at risk the state's billion dollar citrus industry wherever ACP establishes. Management of ACP and infected tree removal are the only known methods of limiting the spread of HLB, but these methods come with their own set of costs and risks. To reduce economic losses, ACP management options for growers are being developed before ACP and HLB spread throughout commercial citrus growing areas in California. This study will present an ex-ante cost comparison of current pest control practices, the IPM best practices for ACP, and the least cost ACP management program for different citrus growing areas in California. Partial budgeting will be used to estimate the costs under each scenario. Partial budgeting compares the changes in income and expenses that would result from implementing a specific alternative; hence it provides an indicator as to how the treatment is likely to affect the profitability of an enterprise (Kay et al. 2004). Because ACP treatments are applied to reduce the risk of HLB infection and ACP causes far less significant direct damage to citrus, changes in revenues are equal to zero and only costs are calculated.

Since that time, the California Department of Food and Agriculture has conducted an eradication program utilizing systemic imidacloprid and foliar cyfluthrin wherever psyllids are detected. This program was halted in Los Angeles County in 2011 because of the size of the ACP infestation. Psyllids have continued to spread to the east and the south into San Bernardino, Riverside, and Orange Counties. In areas such as San Diego and Imperial counties where urban treatments have been continuous, detections of ACP in commercial citrus are rare and a single treatment of a combination of two broad spectrum insecticides reduces psyllids below detectible levels for many months. In contrast, in San Bernardino and Riverside counties where re-infestation from urban areas is a continuing problem and where the treatments are not well-coordinated in an area-wide fashion, psyllids have become established and commercial growers must treat multiple times per year. The University of California in collaboration with the California Citrus Pest and Disease Prevention Committee have developed strategies for managing ACP once it establishes in commercial citrus. In the initial phase of invasion, when ACP densities are low, aggressive applications of two broad spectrum insecticides are recommended. In areas where the psyllid has become established, area-wide treatment programs utilizing 3-5 insecticides/year are necessary directed at periods of flush and also at the late fall and early spring overwintering populations.

Our study has been focused on developing a high throughput chemical screen assay using model plants such as tomato and Arabidopsis that can be infected by Candidatus \nLiberibacter psyllaurous \n(Clps). The key objective is to identify chemicals that induce plant defense against CLps infection or its transmission via psyllids. We evaluated \nArabidopsis thaliana\n and tomato in different media such as MS sterile media and hydroponic culture, however qPCR results indicated very low and inconsistent numbers of CLps positive plants. We designed a modified detached leaf assay for tomato based on the citrus detached leaf assay (Eldesouky Ammar, USDA-ARS) that has resulted in consistently high (80-85%) number of CLps-positive leaf petioles. We are currently evaluating application of the detached leaf assay in screening chemicals using a tomato CaBP22-GUS transgenic line.

ACP nymphs produce long ribbons or tubes of honeydew excretions that frequently stay attached to the exuviae after molting. Honeydew excretions of both nymphs and adult females are covered with a thin layer of whitish wax-like material ultrastructurally composed of a convoluted network of thin filaments apparently produced by the “wax” glands underneath the anal ring, which is absent in males of this and other psyllid species. The chemical composition of these excretions is being investigated using infrared microscopy and gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy.", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

Some of these pests have threatened even the viability of citrus in Sao Paulo State, like Huanglongbing (HLB) that was responsible for eradicating 18 million plants between January 2005 and July 2012. This requires development of new methods to control the disease and ensure the economic viability of the activity. This study aimed to analyze costs and benefits of a broad control of HLB in the state (66 % of orchards are inspected and have HLB-symptomatic trees eradicated) and compare this scenario to another one representing a lower level of control (reference scenario, considering that only 26% of orchards manage HLB and proceed the eradication). We chose the Benefit-Cost Analysis to evaluate the differences between scenarios. Losses caused by HLB comprised a reduction in productivity, elimination of infected plants and increase in production costs (due to inspections, insecticide applications, tree elimination and replanting). Costs and benefits were calculated according to state’s phytosanitary status in 2010. The epidemiological model proposed by Bassanezi & Bassanezi (2008) was used to project the disease progress, crop loss damage, the citrus orchard size, orange production and producers’ costs of production to control the disease over 20 years. The ratio B/C was estimated at 4.07 accumulated for the whole period. This result shows that each R$ 1.00 invested by producers to manage the HLB, prevents them from losing R$ 4.07 in gross revenues.", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

In plants, the transition from juvenile to adult stage is regulated by the sequential and complementary action of microRNAs miR156 and miR172. miR156 suppresses the expression of specific transcriptional factors that would otherwise promote the juvenile to adult phase transition, including factors that activate miR172, which directly promotes the transition. Here, we created a target mimic for miR156 to attempt to sequester miR156 and reduce its levels in juvenile citrus. We cloned the nonprotein coding gene IPS1 from Arabidopsis and replaced its native microRNA target with the predicted citrus target of citrus miR156, resulting in a citrus miR156 mimic gene, cMIM156. Five sweet orange (Hamlin) seedling transgenic plants expressing cMIM156 were produced and the endogenous miR172 levels were monitored over time. All five transgenic plants showed enhanced expression levels of miR172 (two exhibited 10X higher levels) compared to non-transgenic control plants regenerated from explants at the same time as transformants. By 1 year after transformation, miR172 levels were still 5X less than that observed using mature sweet orange, and no flowering has yet been observed.

Symptoms exhibited by the stressed trees were excessive leaf loss and premature fruit drop even when HLB-infected trees were managed with good nutritional and irrigation practices recommended to support health of HLB-affected trees. This stress intolerance may be due to a loss of fibrous roots. To assess root status of HLB-infected trees on Swingle citrumelo rootstock (\nCitrus paradisi\n × \nPoncirus trifoliata\n), blocks of 2,307 three-yr-old Hamlin orange trees and 2,693 four-yr-old Valencia orange trees were surveyed visually and with a real time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay to determine \nLas\n infection status. The incidence of \nLas\n-infected trees (pre-symptomatic: \nLas\n+, visually negative, and symptomatic: \nLas\n+, visually positive) trees was 89% for the Hamlin block and 88% for the Valencia block. \nLas\n+ trees had 30 and 37% lower fibrous root mass density for pre-symptomatic and symptomatic trees, respectively, compared to \nLas\n- trees.

Proteins secreted by the type V secretion system (T5SS), known as autotransporters, are large extracellular virulence proteins localized to the bacterial poles.

When fused to the GFP gene and expressed in \nE. coli\n, the LasAI C-terminus and the full length LasAII were localized to the bacterial poles, similar to other members of autotransporter family. Despite the absence of the signal peptide, LasAI was found to localize at the cell surface by immuno-dot blot using a monoclonal antibody against the partial LasAI protein. Its surface localization was also confirmed by the removal of the LasAI antigen using a proteinase K treatment of the intact bacterial cells. When co-inoculated with a P19 gene silencing suppressor and transiently expressed in tobacco leaves, the GFP-LasAI translocator targeted to the mitochondria.

An effective, long-term strategy to controlling this disease will be by the incorporation of genetic resistance into commercial genotypes. Because conventional breeding is limited by the lack of natural resistance in citrus to HLB, genetic engineering is now considered a significant alternative to incorporating such characteristics. In fact, despite general concerns from the public against genetically modified organisms (GMOs), one National Academy report1 stated that genetic engineering will be the way to fully exterminate HLB, while growers’ support of a transgenic approach for disease resistant traits also continues to rise. The primary transformation method of citrus typically uses \nAgrobacterium\n, in which explants are suspended with the bacterium and subsequently placed on selection media. After treatment, the explants produce shoots that can ultimately lead to stable transgenic plants. Due to the slow growth and lengthy maturation, this\n \nprocess takes several years to produce reproductive trees and must be optimized for each cultivar. Consequently, transformation efficiency is substantially less than other model systems. The commercialization of transgenic disease resistant cultivars is even slower due to regulations limiting GMOs worldwide. In order to decrease the dependence upon bacterial vectors and increase transformation efficiency, we have researched an alternative method for introducing nucleic acids into plants that does not involve \nAgrobacterium \nand instead uses cell penetrating peptides (CPPs). CPPs are short, positively charged amino acid sequences that bind to negatively charged molecules and subsequently translocate across cellular membranes. Most surprisingly plant cell walls can also be bypassed, as CPPs are currently used in plants in transient expression and gene silencing assays. Until now, CPPs have not been examined in citrus or other woody crops for stable transformation protocols. We have developed a method for the transient expression of reporter genes (GUS and GFP) using plasmid DNA and CPPs. Our data indicate that up to 50% of treated explants express GUS when CPPs are used alone. Several optimization steps have been tested and the expression efficiency can be increased up to 100% when CPPs are used in conjunction with a lipid transfection reagent. We have also produced hypocotyl segments which survived kanamycin selection. Some produced shoots that rooted and were planted in soil and have been maintained in a growth chamber.

RNA interference is an innate immune response triggered by the cellular uptake of double stranded RNA (dsRNA) and studies were conducted to determine if ACP could be killed by oral uptake of dsRNA that target essential ACP transcripts. An artificial diet system was designed that facilitated the ingestion of dsRNA complementary to genes involved in digestion. Using this system, ACP mortality was observed as a result of oral uptake of dsRNAs targeting an apparent essential ACP gene and this mortality was shown to be dose responsive, reaching a maximum of 37% at high dsRNA concentrations. There was also what appeared to be sequence independent ACP toxicity of large doses of dsRNA, concentrations above 48 ng/uL in the diet.

Here we investigate the effect of ACP feeding, Clas infection, and simultaneous attack by ACP and Clas on the volatile content of Valencia leaves. Leaf volatiles were extracted using hexane and analyzed with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Eighteen out of twenty-seven detected volatiles were induced (2 to 10-folds) in ACP-infested plants. On the other hand, only four volatiles were induced in Clas-infected plants (d-limonene, β-phelandrene, citronellal, and undecanl). The abundance of latter compounds was induced 4-folds in Clas-infected plants, except for limonene, which was induced more than 20-folds. In addition, citrus plants that were subjected to a simultaneous attack by ACP and Clas reduced their volatiles production compared to those that experience an attack only by ACP. Our results suggested that insect and pathogen attack not only changes the profile of plant released volatiles, but also influences the volatile contents of the attacked plants.

It was, at the time, the largest storm in the region’s history. While many areas lost electricity from the electrical grid, the few buildings equipped with Combined Heat and Power (“CHP”) remained lit and heated. For example, many residential and commercial facilities lost power for days after the storm, but natural gas powered CHP systems at the Co-Op City apartment complex and New York University, Fairfield University, and Princeton University kept their buildings functioning. According to Ross Tomlin, an employee of Gulf Coast Clean Energy Application Center of the Department of Energy, “because CHP relies on natural gas delivered through underground pipelines, [the systems] can weather just about any storm.” But minimizing the effects of natural disasters is only one of CHP’s many benefits. \nCHP is the process of capturing heat from existing heat sources, such as boilers, and using the heat to power energy sources, such as steam-powered turbines, to create electricity, hot water, and heat. The technology not only reduces energy costs through efficiency—at least twenty to thirty percent more efficient than separate heat and power systems—but it also protects the environment by burning less fuel, and thus reducing greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution. While this technology has seen continued barriers over the years, one company, Recycled Energy Development (“RED”), recognized that “the US lags far behind the world leaders when it comes to producing energy through [CHP]” and has taken steps to utilize the technology.\n \nThe average increase in energy costs for households between 2001 and 2012 was forty-three percent. This increase in energy costs affects consumers and businesses alike, with electricity costs topping many businesses’ lists of expenses. America undeniably faces a severe energy crisis both in the private sector, due to rising energy costs, and in the public sector, due to gridlock in government. Among the many green energy technologies currently available, CHP is “the least sexy” and considered “a ‘homeless’ suite of technologies” when compared to solar, wind, and hydropower energy systems. Recently, however, the federal government gave CHP a second look as it attempted to educate state governments and companies about the benefits of the CHP technology. The severe lack of effective and efficient state government incentive programs is hindering the CHP technology from reaching its full potential of providing cheap, sustainable power to businesses.\n \nThis Comment will argue that, given the policy benefits of the CHP technology, the federal government should create an organization to establish and monitor a CHP legislative blueprint with three financial incentive program options; states should establish two of those three financial incentive programs; and states should include CHP in their Renewable Portfolio Standards. This Comment will analyze the financial barriers hindering effective widespread use of CHP among private sector companies, examine current effective and ineffective state financial incentive programs, and determine which financial incentive regulations the federal government should include in the legislative blueprint. Because this is mainly a state law issue, no “one size fits all” approach will suffice; however, a legislative blueprint can educate state legislatures about the financial incentives that can be put in place to allow for effective and widespread use of the CHP technology. Such a legislative blueprint must include: 1) a rebate for installed costs of the technology, 2) a feed-in tariff to entice companies to re-funnel excess power through the grid system, and 3) a provision of grants to companies who successfully complete CHP installations.\n \nSection II includes a background discussion of the CHP technology that will help facilitate an understanding of how the technology works and what financial incentives previously existed. Section III includes an analysis of financial incentives, illustrated by state examples that will help analyze how the incentives operate. Section IV includes an analysis of states with little financial incentive programs and demonstrates why it hinders the CHP technology.

An ideal sensing technique should be rapid, accurate and reliable to provide economic, production and agricultural benefits. Optical sensing techniques such as visible-near infrared spectroscopy offer rapid sensing of plant diseases. Although optical sensing methods have few limitations, they offer unique benefits that can greatly aid in citrus disease detection. We have worked on several spectroscopic and imaging techniques to detect citrus diseases, especially HLB. This work presents the comparative performance of these techniques and discusses the benefits and limitations of each of these methods. The spectral techniques that will be discussed in this paper are: visible-near infrared spectroscopy, mid-infrared spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, multiband imaging, and thermal imaging. We collected spectral data representing healthy and diseased leaves from the citrus trees of different cultivar, followed by pre- and post-processing offsite using mathematical models. The classification studies using Naïve-Bayes classifier, Bagged Decision trees and Support Vector Machine were performed before or after principal component analysis, depending on the dataset.

Honeydew samples were collected from healthy ACP that were reared on one-year Valencia trees inside an insectary at a University of Florida’s Citrus Research and Education Center (CREC) grove in Lake Alfred, FL, USA. Dried samples (1 mg) were mixed with 30 μL of methoxyamine hydrochloride solution in pyridine (2%) and allowed to react for 17 h at room temperature. After methoximation, silylation reactions were induced by adding 80 μL of N-methyl-N-trimethylsilyl) trifluoracetamide (MSTFA) for 2 h at room temperature and 0.5 μL of derivatized sample was injected into the GC-MS running in the full scan mode. To check for amino acids, a 10 mg of alkaline honeydew sample was reacted with methylchloroformate (MCF) in a mixture of pyridine and methanol. The MCF derivatives were extracted with chloroform and analyzed with GC-MS. The moisure content was determined by drying the honeydew samples to a constant weight at a 100 °C. The major honeydew composition was as follows: 74.5 ± 2.8 sucrose, 12.4 ± 0.5 D-fructose, 6.4 ± 3.0 mannose, 1.8 ± 0.6 trehalose, myo-inositol 2.8 ± 0.8, ribitol 0.5 ± 1, galactose 0.4 ± 0.2, quinic acid 0.4± 0.3, and malic acid 0.3 ± 0.1.

Their presence in the atmosphere is problematic, as they catalyze depletion of stratospheric ozone. To understand the full environmental impact of these compounds, it is important to identify their chemical cycling processes. Iron increases methyl halide production in soils and oceans, yet copper’s influence remains unknown despite its similar chemical oxidation properties to iron. I experimentally tested the effect of copper sulfate and sunlight on methyl halide fluxes in San Francisco Bay seawater. Samples exposed to copper sulfate and sunlight averaged higher positive flux rates than other treatments. Copper sulfate also increased carbon dioxide production and acidification of the water. The interaction of copper sulfate and sunlight in seawater suggests a new mechanism for methyl halide production, most likely via a photochemical reaction or through suppression of normal uptake processes causing overabundant concentrations.", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [ { "word": "San Francisco Bay, ocean-atmosphere exchange, photochemical reaction, oxidation reaction, metals" } ], "section": "Research", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3fd989mn", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Jae Yun", "middle_name": "Robin", "last_name": "Kim", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California, Berkeley", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Robert", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Rhew", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California, Berkeley", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": "2014-04-29T04:50:58+03:00", "date_accepted": "2014-04-29T04:50:58+03:00", "date_published": "2014-01-01T02:00:00+02:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/our_bsj/article/59108/galley/45136/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 61109, "title": "Copyright Law in the Republic of Korea", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "Articles", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/8b9199zm", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Kyu", "middle_name": "Ho", "last_name": "Youm", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": "2014-03-30T20:48:39+03:00", "date_accepted": "2014-03-30T20:48:39+03:00", "date_published": "2014-01-01T02:00:00+02:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/uclalaw_pblj/article/61109/galley/47078/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 37747, "title": "Cornejo Polar, Antonio.
