Chapter 5 Sinicization and Indigenization: the Emergence of the Yunnanese
Between Winds and Clouds Bin Yang Chapter 5 Sinicization and Indigenization: The Emergence of the Yunnanese Introduction As the state began sending soldiers and their families, predominantly Han Chinese, to Yunnan, 1 the Ming military presence there became part of a project of colonization. Soldiers were joined by land-hungry farmers, exiled officials, and profit-driven merchants so that, by the end of the Ming period, the Han Chinese had become the largest ethnic population in Yunnan. Dramatically changing local demography, and consequently economic and cultural patterns, this massive and diverse influx laid the foundations for the social makeup of contemporary Yunnan. The interaction of the large numbers of Han immigrants with the indigenous peoples created a 2 new hybrid society, some members of which began to identify themselves as Yunnanese (yunnanren) for the first time. Previously, there had been no such concept of unity, since the indigenous peoples differentiated themselves by ethnicity or clan and tribal affiliations. This chapter will explore the process that led to this new identity and its reciprocal impact on the concept of Chineseness. Using primary sources, I will first introduce the indigenous peoples and their social customs 3 during the Yuan and early Ming period before the massive influx of Chinese immigrants. Second, I will review the migration waves during the Ming Dynasty and examine interactions between Han Chinese and the indigenous population. The giant and far-reaching impact of Han migrations on local society, or the process of sinicization, that has drawn a lot of scholarly attention, will be further examined here; the influence of the indigenous culture on Chinese migrants—a process that has won little attention—will also be scrutinized. -
Microbiology of Endodontic Infections
Scient Open Journal of Dental and Oral Health Access Exploring the World of Science ISSN: 2369-4475 Short Communication Microbiology of Endodontic Infections This article was published in the following Scient Open Access Journal: Journal of Dental and Oral Health Received August 30, 2016; Accepted September 05, 2016; Published September 12, 2016 Harpreet Singh* Abstract Department of Conservative Dentistry & Endodontics, Gian Sagar Dental College, Patiala, Punjab, India Root canal system acts as a ‘privileged sanctuary’ for the growth and survival of endodontic microbiota. This is attributed to the special environment which the microbes get inside the root canals and several other associated factors. Although a variety of microbes have been isolated from the root canal system, bacteria are the most common ones found to be associated with Endodontic infections. This article gives an in-depth view of the microbiology involved in endodontic infections during its different stages. Keywords: Bacteria, Endodontic, Infection, Microbiology Introduction Microorganisms play an unequivocal role in infecting root canal system. Endodontic infections are different from the other oral infections in the fact that they occur in an environment which is closed to begin with since the root canal system is an enclosed one, surrounded by hard tissues all around [1,2]. Most of the diseases of dental pulp and periradicular tissues are associated with microorganisms [3]. Endodontic infections occur and progress when the root canal system gets exposed to the oral environment by one reason or the other and simultaneously when there is fall in the body’s immune when the ingress is from a carious lesion or a traumatic injury to the coronal tooth structure.response [4].However, To begin the with, issue the if notmicrobes taken arecare confined of, ultimately to the leadsintra-radicular to the egress region of pathogensIn total, and bacteria their by-productsdetected from from the the oral apical cavity foramen fall into to 13 the separate periradicular phyla, tissues. -
Ecological Risk Assessment of Typical Plateau Lakes
E3S Web of Conferences 267, 01028 (2021) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/202126701028 ICESCE 2021 Ecological Risk Assessment of Typical Plateau Lakes Yuyadong1.2*, Yankun2 1.School of Ecology and Environmental Science Yunnan University, China 2.The Ecological and Environmental Monitoring Station of DEEY in Kunming, China Abstract. Plateau lakes have significant ecological value. With economic development, lake pollution and ecological degradation have become increasingly prominent. There are many ecological risk assessment methods. This article combines four different ecological risk assessment methods including single-factor pollution index, geological accumulation index method, potential risk index method, and pollution load index method to analyze the heavy metal pollution in Yangzong seabed mud as comprehensively as possible. It shows that the results obtained by different ecological risk assessment methods are slightly different. The overall trends of the geological pollution index and the single-factor pollution index are similar. In terms of time, except for the two elements of mercury and cadmium, the contents of other heavy metals in 2019 are lower than in 2018, indicating that heavy metal pollution has decreased in 2019; from the perspective of spatial distribution, In 2018, the overall pollution level on the south side of Yangzonghai was higher than that in the central and northern regions of Yangzonghai . On the whole, whether it is the potential risk index or the appropriate pollution load index, the pollution level on the south side of Yangzonghai is higher than that in the central and northern areas of Yangzonghai, and the northern area has the least pollution. ecosystems is relatively reduced, which makes the economic development of plateau lake basins face severe 1 Introduction challenges. -

Accepted: January 30, 2017 Abstract Plasma membrane-located nucleotide transport proteins (NTTs) underpin the lifestyle of important obligate intracellular bacterial and eukaryotic pathogens by importing energy and nucleotides from infected host cells that the pathogens can no longer make for themselves. As such their presence is often seen as a hallmark of an intracellular lifestyle associated with reductive genome evolution and loss of primary biosynthetic pathways. -

Dissertation advisor: Peter R. Girguis Jacob William Cohen The ecophysiology of iron-oxidizing Zetaproteobacteria: microbe-mineral interactions, transcriptomic responses, and biomineralization Abstract Neutrophilic microaerobic iron-oxidizing bacteria (FeOB) obtain energy by using reduced Fe(II) as an electron donor with oxygen as their electron acceptor. Much is still unknown about FeOB, however, despite their importance to the cycling of iron, a nutrient that is essential to life on Earth and limiting in many marine environments. In this dissertation I studied pure cultures of two marine hydrothermal vent iron-oxidizing Zetaproteobacteria, Mariprofundus ferrooxydans PV-1 and Ghiorsea bivora TAG-1, to further our understanding of FeOB physiology and the implications this has for their ecology.
