Evaluation of Japonica Rice (Oryza Sativa L.) Varieties and Their Improvement in Terms of Stability, Yield and Cooking Quality by Pure-Line Selection in Thailand
ESEARCH ARTICLE R ScienceAsia 46 (2020): 157–168 doi: 10.2306/scienceasia1513-1874.2020.029 Evaluation of japonica rice (Oryza sativa L.) varieties and their improvement in terms of stability, yield and cooking quality by pure-line selection in Thailand Pawat Nakwilaia, Sulaiman Cheabuc, Possawat Narumona, Chatree Saensukb, Siwaret Arikita,b, a,b, Chanate Malumpong ∗ a Department of Agronomy, Faculty of Agriculture at Kamphaeng Saen, Kasetsart University, Nakhon Pathom 73140 Thailand b Rice Science Center & Rice Gene Discovery Unit, Kasetsart University, Nakhon Pathom 73140 Thailand c Faculty of Agriculture, Princess of Naradhiwas University, Narathiwat 96000 Thailand ∗Corresponding author, e-mail: [email protected] Received 3 Aug 2019 Accepted 3 Apr 2020 ABSTRACT: Many companies in Thailand have encouraged farmers, especially those in the northern regions, to cultivate DOA1 and DOA2 japonica rice varieties. Recently, the agronomic traits of DOA1 and DOA2 were altered, affecting yield and cooking quality. Thus, the objectives of this study were to evaluate the agronomic traits and cooking quality of DOA1 and DOA2 and those of exotic japonica varieties in different locations, including the Kamphaeng Saen and Phan districts (WS16). DOA2 was improved by pure-line selection. The results showed that the Phan district was better suited to grow japonica varieties than the Kamphaeng Saen district and that DOA2 produced high grain yields in both locations. Furthermore, DOA2 was selected by the pure-line method in four generations, after which five candidate lines, Tana1 to Tana5, were selected for yield trials. The results of yield trials in three seasons (WS17, DS17/18, WS18) confirmed that Tana1 showed high performance in terms of its agronomic traits and grain yield. -

Page 1/14 Abstract Background Antibiotic resistance is often reported and is of major concern as a public health problem. The hill tribe people in Thailand are considered populations vulnerable to antibiotic resistance due to their poor economic and educational status. The study aimed to estimate the prevalence of, the factors associated with, and the major species of bacteria involved in antibiotic drug resistance among the Lahu hill tribe people in northern Thailand. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted to gather information from participants between March and September 2019. A validated questionnaire was used for data collection. Participants who presented an illness related to infectious diseases were eligible to participate in the study and were asked to obtain specic specimens. Antibiotic susceptibility was tested by the Kirbey-Bauer disk diffusion test. -
Tin-Tungsten Mineralized Granite at Mae Chedi Area, Wiang Pa Pao District, Chiang Rai Province, Northern Thalland
GEOSEA V Proceedings Vol.//, Geol. Soc. Malaysia, Bulletin 20, August 1986; pp. 423-471 Tin-Tungsten Mineralized Granite at Mae Chedi Area, Wiang Pa Pao District, Chiang Rai Province, Northern Thalland. R. HANSAWEKl, W. PONGSAPICH2 and S. VEDCHAKANCHANA2 1 Ecom;>mic Geology Division, Department of Mineral Resources, Bangkok 10400, Thailand 2 Department of Geology, Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok 10500, Thailand Abstract: The granitic complexes in the Mae Chedi area, Wing Pa Pao district, Chiang Rai province, northern Thailand, compriSe two granitic suites. The first, the OM-series, is associated with the known primary tin-tungsten mineralization and composed of fine-grained biotite (GM-1), fine-grained muscovite-bearing biotite (OM-2), and fine- to medium-grained leucocratic (GM-3) granites. The second, the OR-series, is generally referred to as tin-tungsten barren granite. It is composed of porphyritic biotite (OR-1), medium- to coarse-grained biotite (OR-2), and fine- to medium-grained leucocratic (OR-3) granites. Both granitic series are geochemically calc-alkaline, peraluminous, and S-type granites. However, the OM-series appears to be less silicic than that of the OR-series and is characterized by higherTi02 , ~03 , F~03 , FeO, MnO, MgO, CaO, P20 5, ~o+, Li, F, Sr, Ba, Zr, Sn, W, Cu, Zn, Ni, Ce and lower Rb contents. Relative differences in N~O and KzO contents between the OM-1, OM-2 and the OR-1, OR-2 are not remarkably sharp. However, the OM-3 is notably lower in N~O but higher KzO contents than that of the GR-3. This and petrographic evidences have led to the belief that the OM-3 is the late metasomatic alteration product ofthe OM-1, wheq:as the OR-3 is the late magmatic differentiation product of the OR-1. -

This study aimed to examine the prevalence of alcohol consumption and associated factors among older adults at community level to understand current situation for target health promotion policy implementation among this vulnerable group. Methods: A household cross-sectional study was conducted for Thai adults aged 50 years and older in Wiang Pa Pao district, Chiang Rai Province, Thailand from January to March 2016. Multi-stage cluster sampling was used to select the respondents from seven sub-districts. Three hundred and sixteen participants were approached and interviewed by trained research assistants. Data were analyzed by Bivariate, and multiple logistic regressions. Results: The majority of respondents (53.7%) were aged 60 years and over (Median = 60 years). The prevalence of current alcohol consumption over the past three months was 23.9%. The study identified factors associated with current alcohol consumption as aged between 50 to 59 years old, being male, current tobacco use, negative to moderate perceptions of current health status, -

Association of Environmental Factors and High HFMD Occurrence In
Laor et al. BMC Public Health (2020) 20:1829 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-020-09905-w RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Association of environmental factors and high HFMD occurrence in northern Thailand Pussadee Laor1* , Tawatchai Apidechkul1,2*, Siriyaporn Khunthason1,2, Vivat Keawdounglek1, Suntorn Sudsandee1, Krailak Fakkaew1 and Weerayuth Siriratruengsuk1 Abstract Background: The major population vulnerable to hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) is children aged less than 5 years, particularly those who are cared for at day care centers (DCCs). This study aimed to assess the associations of environmental and sanitation factors with high HFMD occurrence rates in DCCs of northern Thailand. Methods: A case-control study was used to gather information from caregivers and local government administrative officers. DCCs in areas with high and low HFMD occurrence rates were the settings for this study. A validated questionnaire was used to collect environmental and sanitation information from the DCCs. In-depth interviews were used to collect information from selected participants who were working at DCCs and from local government administrative officers on the HFMD capacity and prevention and control strategies in DCCs. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the associations between many environmental factors and HFMD at the α = 0.05 significance level while the content analysis was used to extract information from the interviews. Results: Two variables were found to be associated with a high rate of HFMD occurrence: the number of sinks available in restrooms and the DCC size. Children attending DCCs that did not meet the standard in terms of the number of sinks in restrooms had a greater chance of contracting HFMD than children who were attending DCCs that met the standard (AOR = 4.21; 95% CI = 1.13–15.04). -
Introduction
LAHU TRADE AND COMMERCE by San it Wongspraset·t * Introduction This article describes the trading and commercial activities of the Lahu Nyi 1 villagers of Pang Fan village community in the hills of Phrao District, Chiang Mai Province, northern Thailand2. These villagers are taken by the author to be fairly representative of the 16,389 Lahu hill people, who live in Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Lampang, Mae Hong Son and Tak Provinces3. The Lahu Nyi system of kinship is bilateral or cognatic4. A village or small cluster of neighbouring villages comprises the basic political unit (Walker, 1969: 44). Like other highland peoples, the villagers under study practise swidden agricultures. Their agriculture is mainly concerned with the production of food, both for local consumption and for exchange; rice, chilli and opium are the major crops with vegetables, melons, spices and tobacco as minor catch-crops. Fowl, pigs, cattle and water buffaloes are commonly found in the village. The Lahu keep their livestock as prestige commodities and for cash income. The Lahu exchange produce among themselves and with other ethnic groups. Trade and comme.rce play a very important role in the relationship between the Lahu and neighbouring peoples. *Senior Researcher, Tribal Research Centre, Chiang Mai.
