The Generalized Odd Lindley-G Family: Properties and Applications Anais da ABC (AABC)
AFIFY,AHMED Z.; CORDEIRO,GAUSS M.; MAED,MOHAMED E.; ALIZADEH,MORAD; AL-MOFLEH,HAZEM; NOFAL,ZOHDY M..
Abstract: We introduce a new class of continuous distributions called the generalized odd Lindley-G family. Four special models of the new family are provided. Some explicit expressions for the quantile and generating functions, ordinary and incomplete moments, order statistics and Rényi and Shannon entropies are derived. The maximum likelihood method is used for estimating the model parameters. The flexibility of the generated family is illustrated by means of two applications to real data sets.

Diameter distribution in a Brazilian tropical dry forest domain: predictions for the stand and species Anais da ABC (AABC)
LIMA,ROBSON B. DE; BUFALINO,LINA; ALVES JUNIOR,FRANCISCO T.; SILVA,JOSÉ A.A. DA; FERREIRA,RINALDO L.C..
ABSTRACT Currently, there is a lack of studies on the correct utilization of continuous distributions for dry tropical forests. Therefore, this work aims to investigate the diameter structure of a brazilian tropical dry forest and to select suitable continuous distributions by means of statistic tools for the stand and the main species. Two subsets were randomly selected from 40 plots. Diameter at base height was obtained. The following functions were tested: log-normal; gamma; Weibull 2P and Burr. The best fits were selected by Akaike's information validation criterion. Overall, the diameter distribution of the dry tropical forest was better described by negative exponential curves and positive skewness. The forest studied showed diameter distributions...

Closed form expressions for moments of the beta Weibull distribution Anais da ABC (AABC)
Cordeiro,Gauss M; Simas,Alexandre B; Stošic,Borko D.
The beta Weibull distribution was first introduced by Famoye et al. (2005) and studied by these authors and Lee et al. (2007). However, they do not give explicit expressions for the moments. In this article, we derive explicit closed form expressions for the moments of this distribution, which generalize results available in the literature for some sub-models. We also obtain expansions for the cumulative distribution function and Rényi entropy. Further, we discuss maximum likelihood estimation and provide formulae for the elements of the expected information matrix. We also demonstrate the usefulness of this distribution on a real data set.

The Lindley Weibull Distribution: properties and applications Anais da ABC (AABC)
CORDEIRO,GAUSS M.; AFIFY,AHMED Z.; YOUSOF,HAITHAM M.; CAKMAKYAPAN,SELEN; OZEL,GAMZE.
Abstract We introduce a new three-parameter lifetime model called the Lindley Weibull distribution, which accommodates unimodal and bathtub, and a broad variety of monotone failure rates. We provide a comprehensive account of some of its mathematical properties including ordinary and incomplete moments, quantile and generating functions and order statistics. The new density function can be expressed as a linear combination of exponentiated Weibull densities. The maximum likelihood method is used to estimate the model parameters. We present simulation results to assess the performance of the maximum likelihood estimation. We prove empirically the importance and flexibility of the new distribution in modeling two data sets.

A clinical gamma camera-based pinhole collimated system for high resolution small animal SPECT imaging BJMBR
Mejia,J.; Galvis-Alonso,O.Y.; Castro,A.A.de; Braga,J.; Leite,J.P.; Simões,M.V..
The main objective of the present study was to upgrade a clinical gamma camera to obtain high resolution tomographic images of small animal organs. The system is based on a clinical gamma camera to which we have adapted a special-purpose pinhole collimator and a device for positioning and rotating the target based on a computer-controlled step motor. We developed a software tool to reconstruct the target’s three-dimensional distribution of emission from a set of planar projections, based on the maximum likelihood algorithm. We present details on the hardware and software implementation. We imaged phantoms and heart and kidneys of rats. When using pinhole collimators, the spatial resolution and sensitivity of the imaging system depend on parameters such as...

Quantitative trait loci associated with resistance to gray leaf spot and grain yield in corn Ciência e Agrotecnologia
Veiga,Adriano Delly; Pinho,Renzo Garcia Von; Resende,Luciane Vilela; Pinho,Édila Vilela de Resende Von; Balestre,Márcio; Pereira,Laís Andrade.
The main objectives of hybrid development programs include incorporating genetic resistance to diseases and increasing grain yield. Identification of Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) through the statistical analysis of molecular markers allows efficient selection of resistant and productive hybrids. The objective of this research was to identify QTL associated with resistance to gray leaf spot and for grain yield in the germplasm of tropical corn. We used two strains with different degrees of reaction to the disease; the genotypes are owned by GENESEEDS Ltda, their F1 hybrid and the F2 population. The plants were evaluated for gray leaf spot resistance, for grain yield and were genotyped with 94 microsatellite markers. Association of the markers with the QTL...

Local influence when fitting Gaussian spatial linear models: an agriculture application Ciencia e Investigación Agraria
Grzegozewski,Denise M; Uribe-Opaz,Miguel A; De Bastiani,Fernanda; Galea,Manuel.
D.M. Grzegozewski, M.A. Uribe-Opazo, F. De Bastiani, and M. Galea. 2013. Local influence when fitting Gaussian spatial linear models: an agriculture application. Cien. Inv. Agr. 40(3): 523-535. Outliers can adversely affect how data fit into a model. Obviously, an analysis of dependent data is different from that of independent data. In the latter, i.e., in cases involving spatial data, local outliers can differ from the data in the neighborhood. In this article, we used the local influence technique to identify influential points in the response variables using two different schemes of perturbations. We applied this technique to soil chemical properties and soybean yield. We evaluated the effects of the influential points on the spatial model selection,...

Inferencia sobre datos no detectados de poblaciones lognormales Colegio de Postgraduados
Ulín Montejo, Fidel.
Frecuentemente, la descripción y comparación de poblaciones con concentraciones de contaminantes se realiza empleando métodos no paramétricos. En la práctica, si las muestras contienen datos no detectados, éstos se omiten o sustituyen por una fracción del límite de detección (LD). Respecto a datos ambientales que contienen datos no detectados, los organismos de regulación ambiental requieren que los riesgos sean caracterizados en términos de la concentración media del contaminante. Este trabajo aborda el problema de descripción, inferencia y comparación de concentraciones medias de poblaciones lognormales mediante una prueba estadística basada en modelos de regresión lineal con variables indicadoras, empleando un enfoque paramétrico. El algoritmo...

Comparison of maps of spatial variability of soil resistance to penetration constructed with and without covariables using a spatial linear model REA
Bastiani,Fernanda de; Uribe-Opazo,Miguel A.; Dalposso,Gustavo H..
A study about the spatial variability of data of soil resistance to penetration (RSP) was conducted at layers 0.0-0.1 m, 0.1-0.2 m and 0.2-0.3 m depth, using the statistical methods in univariate forms, i.e., using traditional geostatistics, forming thematic maps by ordinary kriging for each layer of the study. It was analyzed the RSP in layer 0.2-0.3 m depth through a spatial linear model (SLM), which considered the layers 0.0-0.1 m and 0.1-0.2 m in depth as covariable, obtaining an estimation model and a thematic map by universal kriging. The thematic maps of the RSP at layer 0.2-0.3 m depth, constructed by both methods, were compared using measures of accuracy obtained from the construction of the matrix of errors and confusion matrix. There are...

A phylogenomic appraisal of the evolutionary relationship of mycoplasmas Genet. Mol. Biol.
Yotoko,Karla S.C.; Bonatto,Sandro L..
Several genomes of mycoplasmas have been sequenced and here we tried to retrieve the evolutionary relationships of nine species using a phylogenomic approach. Several methods were used to build phylogenetic trees based on protein sequence information, gene-order, and gene-content. We also utilized datasets composed of individual and concatenated sets of orthologous proteins, as well as with reduced unreliable alignment regions. Most of our results converge to a single topology, except for the trees built with both the maximum parsimony method and with the gene-order dataset. The gene-content dataset presented trees consistent with most nodes of the convergent tree, but in the gene-order dataset most internal branches were clearly saturated and unreliable....

Geoglossomycetes cl. nov., Geoglossales ord. nov. and taxa above class rank in the Ascomycota Tree of Life Naturalis
Schoch, C.L.; Wang, Z.; Townsend, J.P.; Spatafora, J.W..
Featuring a high level of taxon sampling across Ascomycota, we evaluate a multi-gene phylogeny and propose a novel order and class in Ascomycota. We describe two new taxa, Geoglossomycetes and Geoglossales, to host three earth tongue genera: Geoglossum, Trichoglossum and Sarcoleotia as a lineage of ‘Leotiomyceta’. Correspondingly, we confirm that these genera are not closely related to the genera Neolecta, Mitrula, Cudonia, Microglossum, Thuemenidum, Spathularia and Bryoglossum, all of which have been previously placed within the Geoglossaceae. We also propose a non-hierarchical system for naming well-resolved nodes, such as ‘Saccharomyceta’, ‘Dothideomyceta’, and ‘Sordariomyceta’ for supraordinal nodes, within the current phylogeny, acting as rankless...

Fitting macroevolutionary models to phylogenies: an example using vertebrate body sizes Naturalis
Mooers, Arne Ø.; Schluter, Dolph.
How do traits change through time and with speciation? We present a simple and generally applicable method for comparing various models of the macroevolution of traits within a maximum likelihood framework. We illustrate four such models: 1) variance among species accumulates in direct proportion to time separating them (gradual model); 2) variation accumulates with the number of speciation events separating them (speciational model); 3) differences between species are unrelated to phylogenetic relatedness (pitchfork model); and 4) a free model where the trait evolves at its own idiosyncratic rate among lineages. Using species-specific body size, we compare the four models across two data sets: twenty-one clades of vertebrate species, and two clades of...

Soral synapomorphies are significant for the systematics of the Ustilago-Sporisorium- Macalpinomyces complex (Ustilaginaceae) Naturalis
McTaggart, A.R.; Shivas, R.G.; Geering, A.D.W.; Callaghan, B.; Vánky, K.; Scharaschkin, T..
The genera Ustilago, Sporisorium and Macalpinomyces are a polyphyletic complex of plant pathogenic fungi. The four main morphological characters used to define these genera have been considered homoplasious and not useful for resolving the complex. This study re-evaluates character homology and discusses the use of these characters for defining monophyletic groups recovered from a reconstructed phylogeny using four nuclear loci. Generic delimitation of smut fungi based on their hosts is also discussed as a means for identifying genera within this group. Morphological characters and host specificity can be used to circumscribe genera within the Ustilago-Sporisorium-Macalpinomyces complex.

The Informational Fit and Maximum Likelihood in a Pooled Cross-Country Demand System with Autocorrelation AgEcon
Chen, Dongling; Seale, James L., Jr..
We fit the Florida Model with an AR(1) error structure to pooled cross-country International Comparison Project (ICP) data of Seale, Walker, and Kim and estimate the model with the minimum information (MI) estimator. Point estimates obtained by MI are similar in value to those obtained by Seale, Walker, and Kim with maximum likelihood (ML). Two similar simulations but with different sample sizes are conducted to compare the relative efficiencies of MI and ML with known and unknown (MLU) covariances. In the larger sample, the MLU is more efficient in terms of root-mean-squared errors (RMSEs) than the MI. Noteworthy, in the small sample, the MI is more efficient in terms of RMSEs than MLU, even though MLU explicitly accounts for AR(1), whereas the MI...

CONSUMERS' VALUATION OF DISEASE-RESISTANT NURSERY STOCK: A CASE STUDY OF DOGWOODS AgEcon
Gardner, Justin G.; Eastwood, David B.; Brooker, John R.; Klingeman, William E..
This article summarizes a study of consumers' willingness to pay (WTP), in urban areas in Tennessee, Mississippi, and Michigan, for a powdery mildew resistant dogwood tree. Powdery mildew is a disease affecting flowering dogwoods that can limit growth, detract from the appearance, and may cause plant decline and death. Study objectives were to provide information about consumers' WTP and to identify potential marketing strategies for the introduction of the disease-resistant tree. On average, survey respondents indicated they are willing to pay a $13.35 premium for a flowering dogwood tree which is resistant to powdery mildew. Regression results led to inferences that the presence of dogwoods in a respondent's yard, presence of dogwoods infected with...

INTERNATIONAL EVIDENCE ON FOOD CONSUMPTION PATTERNS AgEcon
Seale, James L., Jr.; Regmi, Anita; Bernstein, Jason.
The analysis presented here suggests that low-, middle-, and high-income countries all respond differently to changes in income and food prices and, furthermore that low-income countries are more responsive than high-income countries to such changes. These conclusions are based on a two-stage, cross-country demand system fit to the 1996 International Comparison Project (ICP) data for nine broad categories and eight food sub-categories of goods across 114 countries. The broad consumption groups include: food, beverage, and tobacco; clothing and footwear; education; gross rent, fuel, and power; house furnishings and operations; medical care; recreation; transport and communications; and other items. The food sub-groups include bread and cereals, meat, fish,...
