The Stability

The plant breeder is interested in introducing genotypes with good performance under different environmental conditions. The response of these structures to changes in the environment and the consequent instability in their traits when grown in different environments is to determine the superior ones and to estimate the overlap between the genotypes and the environment from the important criteria, therefore, the performance of the genotype is tested in different locations and seasons to determine the stability of the varieties.

The Stability

Manufactured nanoparticles (MNPs) are increasingly released into the environment and thus research on their fate and behaviour in complex environmental samples is urgently needed. The fate of MNPs in the aquatic environment will mainly depend on the physico-chemical characteristics of the medium. The presence and concentration of natural organic matter (NOM) will play a significant role on the stability of MNPs by either decreasing or exacerbating the aggregation phenomenon. In this study, we firstly investigated the effect of NOM concentration on the aggregation behaviour of manufactured Fe-oxide nanoparticles. Then, the stability of the coated nanoparticles was assessed under relevant environmental conditions. Flow field-flow fractionation, an emerging method which is gaining popularity in the field of nanotechnology, has been employed and results have been compared to another size-measurement technique to provide increased confidence in the outcomes. Results showed enhanced stability when the nanoparticles are coated with NOM, which was due to electrosteric stabilisation. However, the presence of divalent cations, even at low concentration (i.e. less than 1 mM) was found to induce aggregation of NOM-coated nanoparticles via bridging mechanisms between NOM and Ca2+.

Optically Trapped

In recent years, optically trapped luminescent particles have emerged as a reliable probe for contactless thermal sensing because of the dependence of their luminescence on environmental conditions. Although the temperature effect in the optical trapping stability has not always been the object of study, the optical trapping of micro/nanoparticles above room temperature is hindered by disturbances caused by temperature increments of even a few degrees in the Brownian motion that may lead to the release of the particle from the trap. In this report, we summarize recent experimental results on thermal sensing experiments in which micro/nanoparticles are used as probes with the aim of providing the contemporary state of the art about temperature effects in the stability of potential trapping processes.

Under conditions of climate change, the assessment of the stability of genotypes is of particular importance. To conduct directed selection of genotypes with a narrow or broad reaction rate, it is necessary to assess their stability already in the early stages of breeding. The aim of the study was to study the stability of breeding significant traits of oat and barley samples in contrasting ecological and geographical conditions. 25 oat samples and 25 barley samples were studied over 3 years under contrasting conditions in St. Petersburg and the Tambov region. Varieties are characterized by average values of economically valuable traits and genotype regression coefficients on the influence of the bi environment according to Eberhart and Russell. The most sensitive to a change in the ecological and geographical situation were the durations of the germination-heading, germination-harvest periods and grain yield. These characters varied to a greater extent depending on the cultivation conditions than on the genotype. According to regression coefficients for environmental conditions, significant differences in genotypes were only in yield. Contrasting groups of varieties were distinguished by regression coefficients on environmental conditions, genotypes with high productivity. The durations of germination-heading, germination-harvest, the plant height reacted to the change in the environment the same in different varieties. The duration of the growing season was determined by the sum of effective temperatures above 15C. The reduction of the growing season in both crops was 3 days with an increase in the sum of effective temperatures above 15C by 100C.

Riser systems are integral components of the offshore developments used to recover oil and gas stored in the reservoirs below the earth’s oceans and seas. These riser systems are used in all facets of the development offshore process including exploration and exploitation wells completion/intervention, and production of the hydrocarbons. Their primary function is to facilitate the safe transportation of material, oil and gases between the seafloor oceans and seas and the marine platform. As the water depth increases, the working conditions of this system becomes challenging due to the complex forces and extreme environmental conditions which are impacting the operational mode as well as the stability. In this paper several aspects concerning riser mechanics and the behaviour of the riser column will be evaluated against different operational situations.

The green macroalga Ulva prolifera has a number of variants, some of which are asexual (independent from sexual variants). Although it has been harvested for food, the yield is decreasing. To meet market demand, developing elite cultivars is required. The present study investigated the genetic stability of asexual variants, genotype (hsp90 gene sequences) and phenotype variations across a temperature gradient (10–30 °C) in an apomictic population. Asexual variants were collected from six localities in Japan and were isolated as an unialgal strain. The hsp90 gene sequences of six strains were different and each strain included multiple distinct alleles, suggesting that the strains were diploid and heterozygous. The responses of growth and sporulation versus temperature differed among strains. Differences in thermosensitivity among strains could be interpreted as the result of evolution and processes of adaptation to site-specific environmental conditions. Although carbon content did not differ among strains and cultivation temperatures, nitrogen content tended to increase at higher temperatures and there were differences among strains. A wide variety of asexual variants stably reproducing clonally would be advantageous in selecting elite cultivars for long-term cultivation. Using asexual variants as available resources for elite cultivars provides potential support for increasing the productivity of U. prolifera.

Ikan mas (Cyprinus carpio) merupakan komoditas budidaya yang mudah beradaptasi dengan berbagai kondisi lingkungan. Penelitian ini bertujuan mempelajari pengaruh genotipe, lingkungan, dan interaksi antara genotipe dengan lingkungan terhadap stabilitas penampilan fenotipik ikan mas dalam kegiatan budidaya. Rancangan percobaan menggunakan rancangan faktorial 3 x 5 dengan lima ulangan. Lima strain ikan mas, yaitu Rajadanu, Sutisna, Majalaya, Wildan, dan Sinyonya dipelihara secara komunal di dalam tiga model wadah budidaya, yaitu kolam beton, kolam jaring, dan kolam tanah, selama 90 hari. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penampilan fenotipik ikan mas dipengaruhi oleh genotipe, lingkungan dan interaksi kedua faktor tersebut. Strain Sutisna dan Wildan mempunyai nilai sintasan yang paling baik di semua lingkungan dibanding tiga strain lainnya. Strain Sutisna mempunyai pertumbuhan terbaik di kolam tanah sedangkan strain Wildan di kolam jaring. Hal ini menyebabkan kedua strain tersebut menghasilkan biomassa panen terbaik pada lingkungan yang berbeda. Hasil analisis stabilitas menunjukkan bahwa kelima strain ikan mas dalam penelitian ini relatif tidak stabil dan mempunyai respons yang berbeda jika dipelihara pada lingkungan yang berbeda. Strain Wildan dan Rajadanu merupakan strain ikan mas yang mempunyai respons terhadap perbedaan lingkungan paling tinggi. Strain dengan karakteristik tersebut akan mempunyai performa terbaik pada lokasi dan kondisi pemeliharan yang sesuai dengan kebutuhannya, tetapi mempunyai penampilan fenotipik yang rendah jika kondisi lingkungan budidayanya tidak sesuai. Strain Sutisna, Sinyonya, dan Majalaya merupakan strain ikan mas dengan daya responsi terhadap lingkungan lebih rendah. Karakteristik ini menyebabkan penampilan fenotipik ketiga strain tersebut relatif stabil pada semua lokasi dan kondisi budidaya, meskipun tidak bisa mencapai hasil yang maksimal.Common carp (Cyprinus carpio) is known as fish species highly adaptable to various environmental conditions. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of genotype, environment, and their interaction in phenotypic performance stability of common carp. The experimental design used a 3 x 5 factorial design with five repetitions. Five strains of common carp, namely Rajadanu, Sutisna, Majalaya, Wildan, and Sinyonya were stocked communally for 90 days in three culture systems: concrete pond, net cage pond, and earthen pond. The result showed that the phenotypic performance of common carp was influenced by genotype, environment, and their interaction. Sutisna and Wildan strains have a higher survival rate compared to other strains in all culture systems. Sutisna and Wildan strains have the best growth performance in the earthen pond and net cage pond, respectively. Both strains also have the highest biomass production at harvest in all culture systems. Based on the stability performance analysis, Wildan and Rajadanu have the highest response to the different environmental conditions. Strains with this characteristic perform best in different locations or culture systems as long as the environmental conditions are suitable. However, these fish will likely perform poor in the unsuitable culture environment. Sutisna, Sinyonya, and Majalaya are carp strains with lower responsiveness to environmental change. Such characteristic causes the phenotypic performance of these three strains cannot achieve the maximum results, yet it is relatively stable in all locations.

Unexpected Behavior

Self-balancing human transporters are naturally unstable. However, when coupled with sophisticated control laws, these machines can provide mobility within a finite stability envelope. Challenging environmental conditions, or unanticipated operator action, can cause these machines to exhibit unexpected behavior. In an effort to better understand the behavior of these systems inside and outside the stability envelope, a dynamic model of a hoverboard is presented. Motion-capture data is also presented in which an operator’s interactions with the hoverboard were recorded.
