    Abstract Soybean meal is a major component of livestock feed due to its high content and quality of protein. Understanding the genetic control of protein is essential to develop new cultivars with improved meal protein. Previously, a genomic region on chromosome 20 significantly associated with elevated protein content was identified in the cultivar Danbaekkong. The present research aimed to introgress the Danbaekkong high-protein allele into elite lines with different genetic backgrounds by developing and deploying robust DNA markers.

    Abstract O ato de brincar é uma característica comum aos seres humanos e a Educação Física utiliza-se de jogos e brincadeiras como um poderoso instrumento para auxiliar o desenvolvimento das crianças, seja no plano motor, afetivo ou cognitivo. Em tempos de Covid-19, com a suspensão das aulas presenciais e as pessoas ficando a maior parte do tempo em suas casas, torna-se necessário organizar a rotina na convivência familiar. No curso de Educação Física, no componente curricular de Estudos da Recreação e do Lazer foi abordado o conteúdo dos jogos e realizado o I Seminário on line - Brincando em tempos de pandemia, com atividades organizadas pelos acadêmicos do curso, que criaram e construíram possibilidades para que as crianças, jovens e suas famílias pudessem ocupar o tempo de forma prazerosa e recreativa em suas casas. Este evento integrou a Semana Mundial do Brincar (23 a 31 de maio de 2020), onde foram apresentados 19 trabalhos que se utilizaram de papelão, garrafas pet, jornais, caixas, copos, bolinhas e outros objetos. É pertinente a socialização dos projetos dos estudantes, no sentido de qualificar as ações pedagógicas e didáticas, utilizando-se de diferentes metodologias de intervenção, observando a evolução das diferentes áreas de atuação do profissional de Educação Física e a reinvenção da profissão no momento desta pandemia. Por outro lado, a possibilidade de socialização com a participação da comunidade, demonstra o quanto a Universidade está a serviço das pessoas nos municípios onde está inserida.

    Abstract Introduction: Parkinson's disease is neurodegenerative, complex and progressive, manifesting in a slow and irreversible way. Physical exercise has been proposed as therapeutic alternative to people with Parkinson´s disease.
    Objective: To synthesize knowledge about the effects of physical exercise on people with Parkinson´s Disease as presented by published systematic reviews.
    Methods: Nine electronic databases and two grey literature databases were searched for systematic reviews reporting the effects of physical exercises on people with Parkinson´s Disease. Searches involved a two-phase process, by, at least, two independent reviewers. Methodological quality of the included systematic reviews was assessed using AMSTAR-2.
    Results: From 2,122 systematic reviews, 139 were included. Motor outcomes were assessed in 91% of the studies, with balance being the most studied. Non-motor outcomes were assessed in 68% of the studies, with emphasis on quality of life. Physical exercises were classified into five categories: aerobic exercises, strength, combined, sensorimotor activities and other activity protocols. Findings of the systematic reviews suggest that all exercise categories can be prescribed to improve balance and mobility, while combined exercises, strength, and specific activities improve both motor and non-motor outcomes, and aerobic exercise and sensorimotor activities improve motor outcomes.
    Conclusion: Current evidence from systematic reviews suggests that physical exercises impacts both motor and non-motor outcomes in people with Parkinson´s Disease. Limits in evidence provided by the systematic reviews were related to methodological issues and to the description of the interventions and must be considered to improve decision-making and clinical application.

    Abstract The present study aimed to assess different light sources for sampling phlebotomines (Diptera: Psychodidae) from Bosque Rodrigues Alves, a forested park surrounded by the urban area of Belém in the Brazilian Amazon. Centers for Disease Control traps, baited with blue, green, and warm white light-emitting diodes (LEDs), as test group, and incandescent light, as control group, were used. The electromagnetic spectra and luminous intensities of the light sources were characterized. Fractional vegetation cover at each sampling site was also estimated. Abundance, richness, rarefaction curves, Shannon and Simpson diversity indices, phlebotomines/trap/hour, and phlebotomines/trap/night were estimated and compared. The light sources of the test group presented greater luminous intensity than the control, but were similar to each other. There were no differences in vegetation cover at each site. A total of 1,346 phlebotomines comprising 11 species were sampled. The most abundant species were as follows: Nyssomyia antunesi (Coutinho, 1939), Trichophoromyia ubiquitalis (Mangabeira, 1942), Bichromomyia flaviscutellata (Mangabeira, 1942), and Th. brachipyga (Mangabeira, 1942). Light traps with LEDs had richness, abundance, and Shannon diversity indices similar to those obtained with incandescent light. The warm white LED had a higher Simpson's index than the other light sources. Phlebotomine responses to incandescent light were similar to those to LEDs in most analyses, confirming the applicability of these light sources as alternative devices for entomological surveillance. Low consumption ensures greater autonomy of the traps, providing better operability during fieldwork.

    Abstract Modern scientific workflows require hybrid infrastructures combining numerous decentralized resources on the IoT/Edge interconnected to Cloud/HPC systems (aka the Computing Continuum) to enable their optimized execution. Understanding and optimizing the performance of such complex Edge-to-Cloud workflows is challenging. Capturing the provenance of key performance indicators, with their related data and processes, may assist in understanding and optimizing workflow executions. However, the capture overhead can be prohibitive, particularly in resource-constrained devices, such as the ones on the IoT/Edge.To address this challenge, based on a performance analysis of existing systems, we propose ProvLight, a tool to enable efficient provenance capture on the IoT/Edge. We leverage simplified data models, data compression and grouping, and lightweight transmission protocols to reduce overheads. We further integrate ProvLight into the E2Clab framework to enable workflow provenance capture across the Edge-to-Cloud Continuum. This integration makes E2Clab a promising platform for the performance optimization of applications through reproducible experiments.We validate ProvLight at a large scale with synthetic workloads on 64 real-life IoT/Edge devices in the FIT IoT LAB testbed. Evaluations show that ProvLight outperforms state-of-the-art systems like ProvLake and DfAnalyzer in resource-constrained devices. ProvLight is 26 -- 37x faster to capture and transmit provenance data; uses 5 -- 7x less CPU; 2x less memory; transmits 2x less data; and consumes 2 -- 2.5x less energy. ProvLight and E2Clab are available as open-source tools.

    Abstract Complex scientific experiments from various domains are typically modeled as workflows and executed on large-scale machines using a Parallel Workflow Management System (WMS). Since such executions usually last for hours or days, some WMSs provide user steering support, i.e., they allow users to run data analyses and, depending on the results, adapt the workflows at runtime. A challenge in the parallel execution control design is to manage workflow data for efficient executions while enabling user steering support. Data access for high scalability is typically transaction-oriented, while for data analysis, it is online analytical-oriented so that managing such hybrid workloads makes the challenge even harder. In this work, we present SchalaDB, an architecture with a set of design principles and techniques based on distributed in-memory data management for efficient workflow execution control and user steering. We propose a distributed data design for scalable workflow task scheduling and high availability driven by a parallel and distributed in-memory DBMS. To evaluate our proposal, we develop d-Chiron, a WMS designed according to SchalaDB's principles. We carry out an extensive experimental evaluation on an HPC cluster with up to 960 computing cores. Among other analyses, we show that even when running data analyses for user steering, SchalaDB's overhead is negligible for workloads composed of hundreds of concurrent tasks on shared data. Our results encourage workflow engine developers to follow a parallel and distributed data-oriented approach not only for scheduling and monitoring but also for user steering.

    Abstract Fine mapping quantitative trait loci (QTL) and understanding the molecular mechanism and underlying functions of genes are vital to the advancement of plant research and plant breeding. Target region sequencing (TRS) provides an efficient way to assist in accomplishing these goals. Once a genomic region is found to be responsible for a phenotype, TRS can be deployed to characterize that region. Understanding the available methodologies to perform TRS will be advantageous when determining how to proceed with specific projects. In this article, we reviewed and summarized four main methods that are being used for TRS in plants, including hybrid capture, PCR-based enrichment, DNA fragment circularization, and RNA capture. We also discussed the potential uses of these technologies in plant research, especially the marker discovery for breeding selection. The TRS techniques outlined in this review have the potential to become commonplace in plant research, thereby having a large impact.
