Métodos para calcular capacidades de embalse

LESLIE SKERTCHLY MOLINA (1989, [Artículo])

En México, el cálculo de la capacidad de embalse es un problema al que no se ha dado la debida importancia. Tradicionalmente, se han empleado dos métodos: el de la curva masa y el de modelos de simulación; usando, en ambos casos, los registros de escurrimientos disponibles. En este artículo se describen, comentan y ejemplifican algunos otros métodos de aplicación sencilla y efectiva, que permiten el empleo tanto de los registros históricos de escurrimientos como los generados en forma sintética, ampliando la longitud de los originales. Se presenta una evaluación de los métodos descritos y se hacen comparaciones entre ellos, relativas a su eficiencia y a la información que producen. Por último, se desarrollan otras técnicas basadas en las descritas, que permiten no sólo calcular la capacidad de embalse, sino que proveen más información útil para el diseño de sistemas

Adecuación cultural de la vivienda: una propuesta de medición

Jesús Ricardo Salazar Judith Ley García (2022, [Artículo, Artículo])

La adecuación cultural forma parte de las siete directrices internacionales que, según la Organización de las Naciones Unidas, debe poseer una vivienda para que se le considere adecuada. Sin embargo, evaluar el cumplimiento de esta directriz en las ciudades no es una tarea sencilla, dada la dificultad que representan su conceptualización y operacionalización. En este sentido, el objetivo del artículo es construir un concepto de adecuación cultural susceptible de medición a escala intraurbana. Para ello, se utilizó el enfoque de las capacidades como sustento teórico y el Índice de Desarrollo Humano como metodología análoga, lo que permitió proponer un Índice Sintético de Adecuación Cultural de la Vivienda que se aplicó en la evaluación de la ciudad de Mexicali, México. Como parte de los resultados, se identificó que los habitantes de más de la mitad del parque habitacional de Mexicali poseen pocas posibilidades de personalizar su vivienda conforme a sus repertorios culturales.

"Metal nanoparticles have many positive effects in improving crop production and productivity and allow for increased germination and rapid crop establishment under field conditions. The metallic nanoparticles applied in this study were copper oxide nanoparticles (CuONPs) biosynthesized using orange peel (Citrus X sinensis) as a reducing agent to avoid or reduce toxicity in wheat seeds and sprouts. This study determined the effect of CuONPs on germination, radicle and plumule length, as well as the production of phytochemical compounds in wheat sprouts. The seeds were treated with suspensions of CuONPs at the following concentrations: 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4 and 6 mg mL-1. The results indicate that the use of low doses of CuONPs (0.5 mg mL-1), improved germination, vigor, plumule and radicle length, in addition to increasing the biosynthesis of phytochemical compounds in wheat shoots. A high concentration of CuONPs (6 mg mL-1) causes inhibitory effects due to Cu accumulation and phytotoxicity in plant tissue. The use of CuONPs for green synthesis is a viable alternative to obtain beneficial effects in germination and seedling development, as well as greater secondary metabolite production."

Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria Improve Growth and Fruit Quality of Cucumber under Greenhouse Conditions

GERARDO ZAPATA SIFUENTES Luis Guillermo Hernández Montiel Jorge Sáenz Mata Manuel Fortis Hernández EDUARDO BLANCO CONTRERAS ROBERTO GREGORIO CHIQUITO CONTRERAS Pablo Preciado Rangel (2022, [Artículo])

"Cucumber fruit is rich in fiber, carbohydrates, protein, magnesium, iron, vitamin B, vitamin C, flavonoids, phenolic compounds, and antioxidants. Agrochemical-based production of cucumber has tripled yields; however, excessive synthetic fertilization has caused problems in the accumulation of salts in the soil and has increased production costs. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of three strains of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) on cucumber fruit growth and quality under greenhouse conditions. The rhizobacteria Pseudomonas paralactis (KBendo6p7), Sinorhizobium meliloti (KBecto9p6), and Acinetobacter radioresistens (KBendo3p1) was adjusted to 1 × 108 CFU mL−1 . The results indicated that the inoculation with PGPR improved plant height, stem diameter, root length, secondary roots, biomass, fruit size, fruit diameter, and yield, as well as nutraceutical quality and antioxidant capacity, significantly increasing the response of plants inoculated with A. radioresistens and S. meliloti in comparison to the control. In sum, our findings showed the potential functions of the use of beneficial bacteria such as PGPR for crop production to reduce costs, decrease pollution, and achieve world food safety and security."

Effect of Pectimorf on the rooting ability, and morpho-physiological physiological trials of national cocoa (Theobroma cacaoL.) under different substrates

JUAN JOSE REYES PEREZ Luis Tarquino Llerena Ramos Víctor Hugo Reynel Chila Juan Antonio Torres Rodríguez FAROUK SAAD Luis Guillermo Hernández Montiel Wilmer Tezara (2022, [Artículo])

"Cocoa is an economical cash crop that is formerly planted worldwide. Cuttings are a method of vegetative propagation suitable for maintaining desirable characteristics in cocoa trees. A greenhouse experiment was performed to evaluate the optimal concentrations of Pectimorf® (0, 10, 50, and 100 mg L-1) for rooting ability and seedling establishment as well as some physiological trials of 4 months EETP-800 national cocoa cuttings grown under two different substrates (S1: 80% soil + 20% sand and S2: 70% soil + 20% sand + 10% rice husk). The data showed that in most cases there are no significant differences in vegetative growth and root characteristics as well as gas exchange parameters between the two substrates. On the other hand, the application of Pectimorf® concentration enhanced all tested traits compared to untreated plants. The most effective in this regard was 100 mg L-1, that giving the highest value of all trials. As for the interaction effect, the result also shows that the application of Pectimorf® concentration in special at 100 mg L-1 among two substrates had an additive effect on plant growth, gas exchange, and survival percentage compared to non-treated cuttings. The application of 100 mg L-1 Pectimorf® with S2 substrate produced stronger seedlings with a higher survival percentage. This protocol can be used commercially for cocoa propagation commercially."

CuO-NPs Improve Biosynthesis of Bioactive Compounds in Lettuce

JAZMIN MONTSERRAT GAUCIN DELGADO Luis Guillermo Hernández Montiel Manuel Fortis Hernández JUAN JOSE REYES PEREZ José Antonio González Fuentes Pablo Preciado Rangel (2022, [Artículo])

"The application of metallic nanoparticles improves the yield and content of bioactive compounds in plants. The aim of the present study was to determine the effects of the foliar application of copper nanoparticles (CuO-NPs) in the yield and content of bioactive compounds in lettuce. Different concentrations of CuO-NPs (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, and 6 mg mL−1 ) were applied in lettuce. The yield, nutraceutical quality, and enzymatic activity were determined. Foliar spraying of CuO-NPs induced an increase in the biosynthesis of bioactive compounds. In addition to an increase in the activity of the enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) in lettuce plants, there were no negative effects on yield. Therefore, with the application of CuO-NPs, better quality lettuces are produced for the human diet due to the higher production of bioactive compounds."

NIMCY NOEMI MEZA GUTIERREZ Paola Magallón Servín ROSENDO BALOIS MORALES IZA FERNANDA PEREZ RAMIREZ GRACIELA GUADALUPE LOPEZ GUZMAN GUILLERMO BERUMEN VARELA Pedro Ulises Bautista Rosales (2022, [Artículo])

"Soursop leaves are a source of phytochemical compounds, such as phenolic acids, flavonoids, hydrolyzable tannins, and acetogenins. These compounds can have several types of biological activities. Lactic acid bacteria can uptake phenolic compounds present in plants or fruits. The aim of the present work was to investigate the in vitro effect of hexane, acetone, methanolic, and aqueous extracts of soursop leaves (Annona muricata L.) on the growth, motility, and biofilm formation of Lactobacillus casei, and to determine compounds related to growth. The minimum concentration promoting growth, motility (swimming, swarming, and twitching), and biofilm-forming capacity (crystal violet) were evaluated. The results showed the growth-promoting capacity of acetone and aqueous extracts at low doses 25–50 mg/L, and an inhibition in the four extracts at higher doses of 100 mg/L. The L. casei growth is related to ellagic acid, quercetin rhamnoside, kaempferol dihexoside, quercetin hexoside, secoisolariciresinol, and kaempferol hexoside-rhamnoside. Hexane extract increased the three types of motility, while aqueous maintained swimming and twitching motility similar to control. The four extracts inhibited the biofilm formation capacity."

Capability approach and life course cube applied to the migration of skilled women

Lidia Ivonne Munguía Ocampo Arlette Covarrubias (2023, [Artículo, Artículo])

A proposal is developed to integrate Amartya Sen's Capabilities Approach and the study of life trajectories, represented in the life course cube of Bernardi et al. (2019), taking as an empirical example the couple migration the skilled women. The life curse cube allows the visualization of the interdependencies between (1) the temporality of women's life course and the historical moment where the migration process occurs, (2) the individual, social, and environmental conversion factors that provide or restrict their ability to achieve those functionings they consider of value to their lives and how they exercise their agency to achieve their well-being, and (3) the micro, meso and macro levels of interaction that together connect life domains over time from the individual environment, the social relationships and considering external societal structures.
