A radiomutant of China aster with a new type of head and new type of ray florets was described. All florets in the head were bisexual and tubular although dimorphic - they varied in size and colour. The place of ray florets in the head was taken by bisexual open tubular florets which were often crowned with irregular teeth. Disc florets were short and parchment-like. In both types of florets the following were compared: number and size of stamens, vitality of pollen and floret fertility. A number of teeth (lobes) in the corolIas of disc florets was also determined. Attention was also paid to the frequently observed anomalies and in particular to stamen displation. The problem is discussed of whether the obtained form resulted from mutation of disc florets with the simultaneous mutation of factors determining the so far unknown in China aster the head type without the whorl ofray florets or whether it was a mutation of ray flowers (corolla type and androecium formation). The author presents the opinion that the form resulted from the mutation ligulate of ray florets to the type of florets described above.

The improper description and classification of two Polish cultivars of China aster ('Roma' and 'Srebrzysta Gwiazdka') were corrected. A new type of ray florets with tubular-ligulated (RJ type) and closed tubular (RC type) corollas was described. The type of heredity of the above mentioned types of florets and florets with ligulated corollas was determined. The work is based on our own material: radiomutant MG and its offspring as well as the F<sub>1 </sub; and F<sub>2 </sub; generations of hybrids obtained after crossing three cultivars: 'Goplana' x 'Roma' and 'Goplana' x 'Srebrzysta Gwiazdka' (i.e. J type x RC type). It was observed that the RJ type of corollas did not remain in the type. In the offspring of plants with such florets, always three types of segregants were present: plants with ray florets with ligulated, tubular - ligulated and tubular corollas. It was proved that it corresponds to the 1 :2: 1 ratio. It means that the formation of the RJ type corollas results from the presence of both alleles in the heterozygote. It was proposed to mark the gene conditioning the ligulated corolla form with the symbol L<sub>t</sub; (from Liguliformes) and the total corolla accretion with the symbol l<sub>1 </sub;. Thus the described phenotypes correspond to the following genotypes: L<sub>t</sub;L<sub>t</sub; - determines the appearance of ligulated corollas, L<sub>t</sub;l<sub>t</sub; - tubular - ligulated corollas and l<sub>t</sub;l<sub>t</sub; - closed tubular corollas.

The purpose of this work is to present a clear fundamental thought for designing and investigating straight bevel gear made of composite material. Composite materials have the advantage of being light, producing low noises, and extra loading capacities. Due to these properties, it is highly preferable over conventional materials. A comparison between different types of material used in a gear structure will be shown. The outcome shows that a new form of cheap material may be useful for designing a new type of lighter and stiffer gear, designed for robotic arm applications or any power transmission application.

Music and cinema are two arts that have shown the most varied synthesis on semiotic and phenomenological levels during their century-old history. The permeation of these two arts has given birth to a substantially new form of their existence. That is the reason that the films and the complete creation of Sergey Parajanov are somehow situated in between these arts, between the plasticity of the cinema and the expressiveexpressiveness of the silent film. The overflowing of characteristics from one art to another does not occur to the detriment of the genre category of this particular art; in other words, the film does not cease to be film, nor is this the case with music. It would be more precise to confirm just the opposite: the permeation of the characteristics between the arts enriches each individual art, because the associative degree is augmented. This circumstance influences the perception of these arts, especially of the cinema. It acquires the capacity to actively influence the spectator, seemingly evading its basic visual rank. This genre of cinema refers to intellectual, sensual and subconscious incentives, forming at the same time a new type of spectator.

In this paper I analyze two of Pekić’s novels in the light of Bakhtin’s concept of the open text of the polyphonic novel which Pekić develops by means of a new Narrator Figure and a new poetics based on an encyclopedic embedded text structure. Among several literary techniques developed from the beginnings of Pekić’s writing, crucial importance belongs to what I call the Explicit Narrator Figure (for instance, in The Time of Miracles, 1965), who speaks in his own voice as interpreter of found texts, and the Implicit Narrator Figure, who adopts the literary and non-literary voices of (many) others, to whose diction and style he assimilates his own voice (for example, in Pilgrimage of Arsenije Njegovan, 1970). This new (postmodern) narrator figure, both explicit and implicit, acts as an interpreter of «found» texts. What connects these two types of Narrator Figures is the document and related Embedded Narration: both narrators thus deal with the pre-texts as well as texts-in-texts, levels and layers of texts, proto-texts and meta-texts – various types of Framed/Embedded Narratives. The Implicit Narrator Figure deals with Biblical witnessed texts and the Explicit Narrator Figure uses personal testamentary texts. In such a way, both Implicit and Explicit Narrator Figures become the researchers of different types of literary and non-literary documents. These complex inter-textual explorations of the “library” of culture are “encyclopedic” in magnitude and reveal, in combination with the new Narrator Figure’s status as Editor and Interpreter, a new type of narrative text, constituted in the encyclopedic open novel structure. Pekić thus introduces a new form of inter-textuality into Serbian literature, implicitly extending Bakhtin’s (and Dostoevsky’s) legacy by drawing on the Serbian national literary canon and the entire Western cultural “library”.

A factor model based covariance matrix is used to build a new form of Mahalanobis distance. The distribution and relative properties of the new Mahalanobis distances are derived. A new type of Mahalanobis distance based on the separated part of the factor model is defined. Contamination effects of outliers detected by the new defined Mahalanobis distances are also investigated. An empirical example indicates that the new proposed separated type of Mahalanobis distances predominate the original sample Mahalanobis distance.

The paper is mostly devoted to the variability of florets and heads in <i>Callistephus sp</i>.- in its wild form and cultivated varieties. Describing the variability of heads more attention was paid to florets and specially ray florets including rare and often incorrectly described florets with tubular corollas. Attention was called to the necessity of using univocal and generally accepted basic vocabulary for heterogamic heads.

The introduction of Information Communication Technologies (ICTs) has transformed journalism profession through the digitalization of the work process as well as the introduction of the internet along with its services. Many new types of journalism have emerged, among which data journalism, which require journalists to have special ICT skills. Data journalism is a new form of journalism which has appeared gradually during the previous years, driven by the availability of data in digital form. This article studies the issue of data journalism. Specifically, the article will include a definition of data journalism as well as a discussion on the necessary ICT skills that journalists should have in order to cope with this new type of journalism. These skills are closely associated with the stages of the development of a data journalism project. Also, the relation between data journalism and open data will be presented due the importance of the later in the development of data journalism.

The combination of medical treatment and tourism seems to be a promising and relatively new type of niche tourism. The globalization of health care has given rise to a new form of tourism that is commonly known as health tourism. Within the health tourism arena, medical tourism is among the fastest growing sectors. It enables patients to quickly and conveniently travel to receive medical services at lower prices and of better quality than they could in their native countries. Yet analyses of medical tourism in developing, emerging markets are under developed, particularly in South Korea. As a response, this chapter examines the customer-perceived value of medical tourism, which deriving explicit factors that influence choice in relation to medical tourism.
