Circular economy (CE) is an economic model, in which raw materials remain in circulation as long as possible and the generation of waste is minimized. In the fertilizer sector, waste rich in nutrients should be directed to agriculture purposes. This paper presents an analysis of recommended directions for the use of nutrient-rich waste in fertilizer sector and an evaluation of possible interest in this kind of fertilizer by a selected group of end-users (nurseries). The scope of research includes the state-of-the-art analysis on circular aspects and recommended directions in the CE implementation in the fertilizer sector (with focus on sewage-based waste), and survey analysis on the potential interest of nurseries in the use of waste-based fertilizers in Poland. There are more and more recommendations for the use of waste for agriculture purposes at European and national levels. The waste-based products have to meet certain requirements in order to put such products on the marker. Nurserymen are interested in contributing to the process of transformation towards the CE model in Poland; however, they are not fully convinced due to a lack of experience in the use of waste-based products and a lack of social acceptance and health risk in this regard. Further actions to build the social acceptance of waste-based fertilizers, and the education of end-users themselves in their application is required.

Abstract Main conclusion Inducible lineage analysis and cell ablation via conditional toxin expression in cells expressing the DORNRÖSCHEN-LIKE transcription factor represent an effective and complementary adjunct to conventional methods of functional gene analysis. Abstract Classical methods of functional gene analysis via mutational and expression studies possess inherent limitations, and therefore, the function of a large proportion of transcription factors remains unknown. We have employed two complementary, indirect methods to obtain functional information for the AP2/ERF transcription factor DORNRÖSCHEN-LIKE (DRNL), which is dynamically expressed in flowers and marks lateral organ founder cells. An inducible, two-component Cre–Lox system was used to express beta-glucuronidase GUS in cells expressing DRNL, to perform a sector analysis that reveals lineages of cells that transiently expressed DRNL throughout plant development. In a complementary approach, an inducible system was used to ablate cells expressing DRNL using diphtheria toxin A chain, to visualise the phenotypic consequences. These complementary analyses demonstrate that DRNL functionally marks founder cells of leaves and floral organs. Clonal sectors also included the vasculature of the leaves and petals, implicating a previously unidentified role for DRNL in provasculature development, which was confirmed in cotyledons by closer analysis of drnl mutants. Our findings demonstrate that inducible gene-specific lineage analysis and cell ablation via conditional toxin expression represent an effective and informative adjunct to conventional methods of functional gene analysis.

We have mapped the fate of cells in the Arabidopsis embryonic shoot apical meristem by irradiating seed and scoring the resulting clonally derived sectors. 176 white, yellow, pale green or variegated sectors were identified and scored for their position and extent in the resulting plants. Most sectors were confined to a fraction of a leaf, and only occasionally extended into the inflorescence. Sectors that extended into the inflorescence were larger, and usually encompassed about a third to a half of the inflorescence circumference. We also find that axillary buds in Arabidopsis are clonally related to the subtending leaf. Sections through the dry seed embryo indicate that the embryonic shoot apical meristem contains approximately 110 cells in the three meristematic layers prior to the formation of the first two leaf primordia. The histological analysis of cell number in the shoot apical meristem, in combination with the sector analysis have been used to construct a map of the probable fate of cells in the embryonic shoot apical meristem.

The purpose of this study is to map sectoral superior potential and changes in regional poverty levels in the Mamminasata region. The method used in this study is qualitative descriptive, using quantitative analysis tools, leading sector analysis tools such as Location Quotient (LQ), Growth Ratio Model (MRP), Overlay Analysis, and Klassen Typology. The results of the study show that there is still a high level of disparity in leading sectors in the Mamminasata region. The results of the analysis show that Makassar City has 12 leading sectors, Kab. Gowa, 7 leading sectors, Maros District 4 leading sector, and Takalar District 3 superior sector. While the results of the Klassen Typology analysis show that only Makassar City consistently shows 12 superior sectors in quadrant I (advanced and fast-growing sectors). While other regencies are only 3 sectors which are in quadrant I, other economic sectors are growing but depressed, there are also potential ones. In fact, Maros Regency and District. Takalar has 11 sectors that are still lagging behind. Based on the poverty mapping of districts / cities in the Mamminasata area, it shows that Makassar City and District. Gowa has an average number of poor people lower than South Sulawesi Province. Takalar Regency tends to be the same as South Sulawesi province, and there are paradoxical symptoms between GDP and poverty. Whereas Kab. Maros is above the poverty average of Prov. South Sulawesi. In aggregate poverty in the Mamminasata area declined during the study period. Makassar City, Kab. Gowa, Kab. Maros, even though the rate of growth declined, the number of poor people also declined. Whereas Takalar Regency has increased GDP but its poverty has also increased.
