Micro RNA genes and their likely influence in rice (Oryza sativa L.) dynamic ...Open Access Research Paper
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.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.
Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.
"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

3. CONCEPT OF PEACE
It is well known that human beings pay much
interest in peace from the ancient time until
now. It can be stated that peace is the greatest
and highest goal or hope that everyone wishes
to achieve personally and expects to be created
in society and in the world.
4. Meanings Of Peace
Literally, the word “peace” is derived from
the original Latin word “pax” which means
a pact, a control or an agreement to end
war or any dispute and conflict between
two people, two nations or two
antagonistic groups of people.
5. Definitions Of Peace
• the word peace essentially means ―”the
absence of war”. (American military history)
• Peace is not merely the absence of war but
the presence of justice, of law, of order – in
short, of government. (Albert Einstein)
6. Definitions Of Peace
• True peace is not merely the absence of
tension: It is the presence of justice.
(Martin Luther King)
• Peace is a virtue, a state of mind, a disposition
for benevolence, confidence and justice.
(Baruch Spinoza )
7. Definitions Of Peace
• Peace is not a relationship of nations. It is a
condition of mind brought about by a serenity
of soul. Peace is not merely the absence of
war. It is also a state of mind. Lasting peace
can come only to peaceful people.
(Jawaharlal Nehru)
9. Internal Peace
• Internal peace is called by another word
“inner peace” is peace of mind or soul. It is a
state of calm, serenity and tranquility of mind
that arise due to having no sufferings or
mental disturbances such as worry, anxiety,
greed, desire, hatred, ill-will ,delusion and/or
other defilements. Internal peace is peace
within oneself
10. According to Lao Tzu‘s famous saying:
• If there is to be peace in the world,
• there must be peace in the nations.
• If there is to be peace in the nations, there must
be peace in the cities.
• If there is to be peace in the cities, there must be
peace between neighbors
• If there is to be peace between neighbors, there
must be peace in the home.
• If there is to be peace in the home, there must be
peace in the heart.
11. External Peace
• External peace is peace that occurs in society,
nations and the world; it is a normal state of
society, countries and the world and it is a
state of peaceful and happy co-existence of
people as well as nature. External peace, in
order to see it clearly, can be described in its
negative and positive sense as follows;
12. • negative sense: the absence of war,
hostility, agitation, social disorder,
disturbances, social injustice, social
inequality, violence, violation of human
rights, riot, terrorism, ecological imbalance,
etc.,
• positive sense: a state of social harmony,
social justice, social equality, friendship or
friendly relation, concord, public order and
security, respect for human rights and
ecological balance, etc.
13. Internal peace and external peace
are interrelated. Both are
interdependent and help support
each other. Internal peace
represents individual‘s peace while
external peace represents peace in
society.
14. Some More Important Types Of Peace
• Intrapersonal peace: the state of peace within
man himself that means there is no conflict
inside one‘s mind.
• Interpersonal peace: the state of peace
between a man and men; there are no
conflicts between a man and men or one
another.
15. Intragroup peace: the state of peace
within groups; the state of having no
conflicts in groups.
Intergroup peace: the state of peace
between group and group; the state of
having no conflicts among groups.
Intraracial peace: the state of peace
within race; the state of having no
conflicts in each race.
16. Interracial peace: the state of peace
between race and races; the state of having
no conflicts among races.
Intranational peace: the state of peace
within nations or countries; the state of
having no conflicts in each nation or
country.
17. International peace: the state of peace
between a nation and the nations; the state
of having no conflicts among nations.
World peace: peace of the world. It means
that the countries throughout the world are
said to be in the state of normalcy, absence
of wars and conflicts, presence of justice and
balance of control.
