Abstract	The present study aimed to investigate the effects of excess fluoride exposure on long bones in young rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus). New Zealand White rabbits (n = 30) were randomly divided into five equal groups and were provided drinking water containing 0, 50, 100, 200, and 400 µg added fluoride per ml ad lib for a period of 90 days. Blood samples were collected on days 0, 45, and 90 of the experiment, and femur samples were collected for fluoride estimation on day 90 after radiography of long bone before sacrifice. Study revealed significant increase in serum fluoride concentration following oral intake of excess fluoride. Alterations in activities of alkaline phosphatase, aspartate transaminase, alanine transaminase, and concentrations of creatinine and urea nitrogen in blood plasma were also recorded in animals receiving excess fluoride, though changes revealed inconsistent pattern. Radiographic changes in long bones in fluoride exposed rabbits included widening of metaphysis, thinning of cortical region, and a variety of osteopenic changes like osteoporosis and osteomalacia that were more prominent in animals receiving 200 ppm or more than 200 ppm fluoride in drinking water. Important changes in histomorphology of growth plate in long bones recorded in excess fluoride (> 100 ppm) exposed rabbits included irregular thickening of epiphyseal growth plate with haphazard orientation of chondrocytes forming nodular protrusion into metaphysis. Fluoride exposure induced both osteogenesis and osteoporosis to a degree varying with dose of fluoride exposure.

Abstract	Devising player-specific strategies in cricket necessitates a meticulous understanding of each player's unique strengths and weaknesses. Nevertheless, the absence of a definitive computational approach to extract such insights from cricket players poses a significant challenge. This paper seeks to address this gap by establishing computational models designed to extract the rules governing player strengths and weaknesses, thereby facilitating the development of tailored strategies for individual players. The complexity of this endeavor lies in several key areas: the selection of a suitable dataset, the precise definition of strength and weakness rules, the identification of an appropriate learning algorithm, and the validation of the derived rules. To tackle these challenges, we propose the utilization of unstructured data, specifically cricket text commentary, as a valuable resource for constructing comprehensive strength and weakness rules for cricket players. We also introduce computationally feasible definitions for the construction of these rules, and present a dimensionality reduction technique for the rule-building process. In order to showcase the practicality of this approach, we conduct an in-depth analysis of cricket player strengths and weaknesses using a vast corpus of more than one million text commentaries. Furthermore, we validate the constructed rules through two distinct methodologies: intrinsic and extrinsic. The outcomes of this research are made openly accessible, including the collected data, source code, and results for over 250 cricket players, which can be accessed at https://bit.ly/2PKuzx8.

Abstract	Background: A network of first referral unit (FRU) is set up to improve the availability and accessibility of comprehensive emergency obstetric care (CEmOC) services. To fill the gap of the scarcity of obstetricians and anesthetists at FRU, two short-term trainings in CEmOC and anesthesia were started for in-service medical officers. Objective: This study aimed to assess the operational status of FRU in providing CEmOC services by task shifting of trained medical officers in selected states of India. Materials and methods: The study was done in seven states of India. A team of experts assessed conveniently selected health facilities designated as FRU by using a semi-structured, predesigned, and pretested checklist for CEmOC functionality status. A total of 50 designated FRUs were assessed and data were systematically analyzed. Results: We documented the availability of five key elements for the operationalization of CEmOC services at FRU. Out of 50 facilities, 9 (18%) reported conducting operative delivery and 11 (22%) of the facilities were fully operational with all elements available. At 9 (18%) facilities, one element and, at 17 (34%) facilities, two elements were missing. The blood storage unit was the most important missing element (68%) followed by operative facilities (36%). The challenges of FRUs remained uniform across states. Barriers identified to operationalize FRU were the availability of trained doctors in cesarean section and anesthesia together, lack of operative facilities, and blood storage units. Conclusions: To operationalize the network of FRU for CEmOC services by task shifting of medical officer, it is important to ensure the availability of all five key elements together at all facilities.

Abstract	A new species of cirri-bearing ophichthidae eel Cirrhimuraena odishaensis sp. nov. is described here, on the basis of two specimens collected from the Palur canal and Talasari fish landing centre in Odisha, India. The distinguishing characters of Cirrhimuraena odishaensis sp. nov. that separate it from its congeners include the presence of a single row of mandibular teeth, origin of the dorsal fin directly above the midpoint of pectoral fin, vertebral counts (pre-dorsal 10, pre-anal 46-47, and total 160-162), and number of cirri (13) on the upper jaw. Morphologically Cirrhimuraena odishaensis shows close affinity with Cirrhimuraena yuanding and Cirrhimuraena orientalis. The new species differs from C. yuanding by origin of dorsal fin, number of intermaxillary and maxillary teeth, and length of head. The new species differs from C. orientalis with relatively higher vertebrae.

Abstract	Plant hormone auxin regulates several aspects of plant growth and development. Auxin is predominantly synthesized in the shoot apex and developing leaf primordia and from there it is transported to the target tissues e.g. roots. Auxin transport is polar in nature and is carrier-mediated. AUXIN1/LIKE-AUX1 (AUX1/LAX) family members are the major auxin influx carriers whereas PIN-FORMED (PIN) family and some members of the P-GLYCOPROTEIN/ATP-BINDING CASSETTE B4 (PGP/ABCB) family are major auxin efflux carriers. AUX1/LAX auxin influx carriers are multi-membrane spanning transmembrane proteins sharing similarity to amino acid permeases. Mutations in

Abstract	Abstract Background Raising global temperatures limit crop productivity and new strategies are needed to improve the resilience of thermosensitive crops such as potato (Solanum tuberosum L.). Biostimulants are emerging as potential crop protection products against environmental stress, however their mechanism of action remains largely unknown, hindering their wider adoption. We used comprehensive physiological, molecular, and mass spectrometry approaches to develop understanding of the mechanism of plant thermotolerance exerted by the biostimulant, Quantis™, under heat stress. Using orthologues gene mutations in Arabidopsis thaliana we report heat-defence genes, modified by Quantis™, which were also investigated for potential overlapping functions in biotic stress defence to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and Rhizoctonia solani. Results Quantis™ enhanced PSII photochemical efficiency and decreased thermal dissipation of potato grown under heat stress. These effects were associated with upregulation of genes with antioxidant function, including PR10, flavonoid 3′‐hydroxylase and β-glucosidases, and modulation of abscisic acid (ABA) and cytokinin (CK) activity in leaves by Quantis™. The biostimulant modulated the expression of the heat-defence genes, PEN1, PR4 or MEE59, with functions in leaf photoprotection and root thermal protection, but with no overlapping function in biotic stress defence. Protective root growth under heat stress, following the biostimulant application, was correlated with enhanced CK signalling in roots. Increased endogenous concentrations of ABA and CK in potato leaves and significant upregulation of StFKF1 were consistent with tuberisation promoting effects. Quantis™ application resulted in 4% tuber weight increase and 40% larger tuber size thus mitigating negative effects of heat stress on tuber growth. Conclusions Quantis™ application prior to heat stress effectively primed heat tolerance responses and alleviated temperature stress of S. tuberosum L. and A. thaliana by modulating the ...

Abstract	Phosphite represents a reduced form of phosphate that belongs to a class of crop growth-promoting chemicals termed biostimulants. Previous research has shown that phosphite application can enhance root growth, but its underlying mechanism, especially during environmental stresses, remains elusive. To uncover this, we undertook a series of morphological and physiological analyses under nutrient, water and heat stresses following a foliar application in wheat. Non-invasive 3D imaging of root system architecture directly in soil using X-ray Computed Tomography revealed that phosphite treatment improves root architectural traits and increased root biomass. Biochemical and physiological assays identified that phosphite treatment significantly increases Nitrate Reductase (NR) activity, leaf photosynthesis and stomatal conductance, suggesting improved Nitrogen and Carbon assimilation, respectively. These differences were more pronounced under heat or drought treatment (photosynthesis and photosystem II stability) and nutrient deficiency (root traits and NR). Overall our results suggest that phosphite treatment improves the ability of plants to tolerate abiotic stresses through improved Nitrogen and Carbon assimilation, combined with improved root growth which may improve biomass and yield.
