  • Social media is a form of communication based on the internet to share information through content and images. Their choice of profile images and type of image they post can be closely connected to their personality. The user posted images are designated as personality traits. The objective of this study is to predict five factor model personality dimensions from profile images by using deep learning and neural networks. Developed a deep learning framework-based neural network for personality prediction. The personality types of the Big Five Factor model can be quantified from user profile images. To measure the effectiveness, proposed two models using convolution Neural Networks to classify each personality of the user. Done performance analysis among two different models for efficiently predict personality traits from profile image. It was found that VGG-69 CNN models are best performing models for producing the classification accuracy of 91% to predict user personality traits.

  • Of the 1,200 single spore isolates of Alternaria mali causing apple leaf spot and fruit decay, the mycelial colonies showed 76, 96 and 15% growth at 100,000 ${\mu}g/ml$ of captafol, chlorothalonil and folpet, respectively, and five and three percent growth at 10,000 ${\mu}g/ml$ of iprodione and polyoxin. These isolates showed cross-tolerance of mycelial growth, spore formation, or spore germination to the above five fungicides plus captan, garbenda, and thiophanate methyl. Captafol, mancozeb, polydong, and propineb did not show any cross-tolerance of spore germination since no spore was germinated at 100 ${\mu}g/ml$ which was much lower than the concentration used by apple growers. Benomyl, fenarimol, oxidong, and triademefon showed medium degree of cross-tolerance of the fungal growth, sporulation, and spore germination.

  • Background: Food consumption is one of the most important routes for radionuclide intake for the public; therefore, there is the need to have a comprehensive understanding of the amount of radioactivity in food products. Consumption of radionuclide-contaminated food could increase potential health risks associated with exposure to radiation such as cancers. The present study aims to determine radioactivity levels in some food products (milk, rice, sugar, and wheat flour) consumed in Mali and to evaluate the radiological effect on the public health from these radionuclides. Materials and Methods: The health impact due to ingestion of radionuclides from these foods was evaluated by the determination of activity concentration of radionuclides 238U, 232Th, 40K, and 137Cs using gamma spectrometry system with high-purity germanium detector and radiological hazards index in 16 samples collected in some markets, mall, and shops of Bamako-Mali. Results and Discussion: The average activity concentrations were 9.8±0.6 Bq/kg for 238U, 8.7±0.5 Bq/kg for 232Th, 162.9±7.9 Bq/kg for 40K, and 0.0035±0.0005 Bq/kg for 137Cs. The mean values of radiological hazard parameters such as annual committed effective dose, internal hazard index, and risk assessment from this work were within the dose criteria limits given by international organizations (International Commission on Radiological Protection and United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation) and national standards. Conclusion: The results show low public exposure to radioactivity and associated radiological impact on public health. Nevertheless, this study stipulates vital data for future research and regulatory authorities in Mali.

  • This studies was carried out to find the effect of inorganic matters of Apple Leaves on the occurrence of Alternaria leaf spot and calicium compounds on mycelial growth of Alternaria mali. Diseased leaf rate of Alternaria leaf spot of susceptible apple varieties was 84.8%, moderate resistant 8.1% and resistant 0.3% respectively and in No. of lesion per leaf, the tendency was same. CaO contents of apple leaves was contained much in the resistant varieties than susceptible one. It was estimated that calcium is one of factors on resistance to apple leaf spot by the results of relations among CaO contents and diseased leaf rate from July to August and No. of lesion per leaf was correlated significantly as r=-0.551, r=-0.585, -0.485 but in T-N, $P_2O_5,\;K_2O,\;MgO,\;Na_2O$, there was no difference among varieties. Then, growth of Alternaria mali was possible in the media of which pH ranged up to $11{\sim}13$, and calcium has effect of inhibition on growth of Alternaria mali.

  • We investigated the isolation method of mushroom infesting pests, Lycoriella mali, Coboldia fuscipes, Histiostoma sp. from mushroom-growing compost. Sugar solution of different densities (0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50%) was tested to provide a means of seperating mushroom pests from the compost media. Thus, 40% sugar solution was suitable for isolation. The sieve size to entrap the pests was $30{\sim}140$ mesh; Lycoriella mali was trappped mainly $30{\sim}65$ mesh sieve, Coboldia fuscipes was caught mainly $30{\sim}100$ mesh sieve, Histiostoma sp. was trapped mainly $65{\sim}140$ mesh sieve. An isolation procedure was as follows; The infested compost was disintegrated in water and poured onto a set of 16, 30, 80, 140-mesh sieve. The material caught in the sieve is added in 40% sugar solution and then most compost particle were massed at the bottom while the supernatant contains mushroom pests. The upperlayer material was poured into a Seperatory funnel and the sediment at the bottom is drained off. The remaining material are washed off examination dish for study.

  • Pathogenic isolates of Alternaria mali produced host-specific toxin(AM-toxin) in liquid culture. The toxin was also released by germinating spores of the fungus. The physiological event of apple leaves induced by germinating spores was an increased loss of electrolytes from susceptible leaves. This reaction was evident soon after spore inoculation, indicating that the leakage was caused by AM-toxin from germinating spores. Typical symptoms were developed only in susceptible leaves of apple within 48hr after inoculation with pathogenic spores. Similar symptoms occurred on susceptible leaves when non-pathogenic isolates plus AM-toxin were used.

  • We used the entomopathogenic nematode, Steinernema carpocapsae, for the effective biological control of Lycoriella mali during Agaricus bisporus cultivation. The concentrations of two S. carpocapsae products distributed in Korea were $6{\times}10^4$ and $2.5{\times}10^5m^{-2}$ respectively. As a result of investigating the density of A. bisporus larvae in a rice straw medium and soil in an A. bisporus cultivation house, the mean numbers per $30cm^2$ were 0.8 and 22.2, respectively, and A. bisporus larvae were detected mainly in the soil. The control effects after once spraying S. carpocapsae at $6{\times}10^4$ and $2.5{\times}10^5m^{-2}$ was higher at the 14th day than at the 7th day. Therefore, we investigated the control effect after twice spraying of $6{\times}10^4$ and $2.5{\times}10^5m^{-2}$ at the 14th day. The control effects after this spraying were 51.9% and 96.8%, respectively, and the control effect of spraying at $2.5{\times}10^5m^{-2}$ was better than at $6{\times}10^4m^{-2}$. The control effect of diflubenzuron WP was lower than 50%.
