Micro RNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs molecules having approximately 18-25 nucleotides, they are present in both plants and animals genomes. MiRNAs have diverse spatial expression patterns and regulate various developmental metabolisms, stress responses and other physiological processes. The dynamic gene expression playing major roles in phenotypic differences in organisms are believed to be controlled by miRNAs. Mutations in regions of regulatory factors, such as miRNA genes or transcription factors (TF) necessitated by dynamic environmental factors or pathogen infections, have tremendous effects on structure and expression of genes. The resultant novel gene products presents potential explanations for constant evolving desirable traits that have long been bred using conventional means, biotechnology or genetic engineering. Rice grain quality, yield, disease tolerance, climate-resilience and palatability properties are not exceptional to miRN Asmutations effects. There are new insights courtesy of high-throughput sequencing and improved proteomic techniques that organisms’ complexity and adaptations are highly contributed by miRNAs containing regulatory networks. This article aims to expound on how rice miRNAs could be driving evolution of traits and highlight the latest miRNA research progress. Moreover, the review accentuates miRNAs grey areas to be addressed and gives recommendations for further studies.

The advancement of both society and the economy may be traced back to the industrial sector. Businesses and academic institutions alike have shown considerable enthusiasm for the Industry 4.0 initiative. Although “Industry 4.0” as a concept has been explored in academic circles for some time, it is only recently that the term has become popular in both academic and industrial settings. Academic studies, on the other hand, aim to better the industrial sector by clarifying the meaning of the concept and developing relevant systems, business models, and methodologies. Businesses need a thorough understanding of the features and substance of Industry 4.0 in order to make the transition from machine-dominated to digital production. These data will be useful when they formulate a plan. Along this route, there have been many discussions and plans put forth. The rapid progress of industrial science is linked to this ailment. This paper conducts a literature review to investigate the relationship between Industry 4.0 and the development of industrial engineering science, the challenges that this field faces, and the impact that the industrial revolution had on human resources, all of which contributed to the emergence of Industry 4.0. To improve productivity, efficiency, and unemployment, the concept merges digital technologies, the Internet, and conventional industries. Moreover, some of the ramifications concern the detrimental effects of Industry 4.0 on human resources. The fundamental objective is to furnish labor forces with tools by expanding employment and spawning new avenues for business ownership across several industries and institutional configurationsA systematic review of the implementation of Industry 4.0 in human resources

Raffias’ species are used in handcrafts, constructions, food processing etc. But in Benin, any quantitative ethnobotanical study was not evaluated for their use and socioeconomic impact of uses on average income. This study investigated the importance of use of raffias’ species and the impact of socioeconomic characteristics of informants on the household income. Ethnobotany quantitative approach was used and data on use, products prices and the quantity sold were collected using a semi-structured questionnaire administered during an interview. The result showed that raffias’ species in Benin are used principally for craft (CI = 1.41 for R. hookeri and 1.68 for R. sudanica), but R. hookeri was most important for people in Guinean zone than those in soudanian and soudano-guinean zones. The frequently uses were the beds, mats, baskets and roofs. The most part of the plant used is the rachis for both species and the less used is the nut. Education level, gender and main activities were socioeconomic variable which influenced the annual income from exploitation of raffias species. The uneducated, men and farmers took more income from raffias’ species than others. Also, the development level of areas where the species are found, influence the income from their exploitations. To evaluate better the contribution of raffias’ species to regional and national gross product, it will be necessary to study the value chain of the main products, but also take into account the informant categories defined in this study regarding operators.

Environmental Remediation with 3D Animations
- 1. Environmental Remediation with 3D Animations Jim Depa jimd@st-ma.com The Problem The Solution The Results
- 2. The Problem The following animation details the results of a soil investigation, performed in order to determine the amount of contamination in soil from a suspected perchloroethylene (PCE) spill. For years PCE was commonly used as a dry cleaning solvent, however, its use has been phased out recently because of its toxicity to humans. The investigation succeeded in determining the sources of the PCE spills, as well as quantifying the amount of PCE that was present in the subsurface.
- 3. The Solution The following animation details the technology used to remediate the subsurface PCE soil contamination – a Soil Vapor Extraction (SVE) system. SVE systems operate by pulling a vacuum in the subsurface soils, which extracts the contamination in the vapor phase. SVE systems are viable remediation solutions in porous (sand or gravel) type soils.
- 4. The Results The following animation details the results of the Soil Vapor Extraction remediation system. Subsurface PCE vapor readings and vacuum readings were collected on a weekly basis and modeled. The right panel depicts PCE vapors in the subsurface, and the left panel depicts the amount of vacuum present in the subsurface.
