New Data on Ichneumonid Hibernation(Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae)in the Barnova Forest Massif (Iasi County, Romania)
2014
In this paper the authors present the results of their researches made in the period of 2006–2010 on the hibernation of some ichneumonid species in the Bârnova forest massif (Iaşi county). 30 species of ichneumonids (only females) belonging to 20 genera of the the subfamily Ichneumoninae were recorded. Five of these species are new as hibernating. During the studied period there were established 6 hibernating stations, but with a low abundance.
Environmental Conditions along Tuna Larval Dispersion: Insights on the Spawning Habitat and Impact on Their Development Stages
2022
Estimated larval backward trajectories of three Tuna species, namely, Atlantic Bluefin Tuna (Thunnus thynnus, Linnaeus, 1758), Bullet Tuna (Auxis Rochei, Risso, 1801) and Albacore Tuna (Thunnus alalunga, Bonnaterre, 1788) in the central Mediterranean Sea, were used to characterize their spawning habitats, and to assess the impact of changes due to the major environmental parameters (i.e., sea surface temperature and chlorophyll-a concentration) on larval development during their advection by surface currents. We assumed that the environmental variability experienced by larvae along their paths may have influenced their development, also affecting their survival. Our results showed that the …

Metamorfosi di un corale: Lutero, Bach, Stravinsky
2021
Nel 1535 Martin Lutero scrive il corale natalizio "Vom Himmel hoch da komm' ich her", basandosi sulla melodia di un'antico canto popolare tedesco. Questo brano ricorre varie volte nell'opera compositiva di J.S. Bach e costituisce il presupposto delle "Canonische veraenderungen" per organo BWV 796 e 796a (1748 ca.). Nel 1955 Igor Stravinsky realizza una versione per coro e orchestra dell'opera bachiana che costituisce un esempio emblematico di "musica al quadrato" e di ripensamento creativo di un'opera del passato.

Religiöse Haltung und politische Moral im Werk des exilierten deutsch-iranischen Autors SAID
2022
Ein ‚Weltbürger ohne ein eigenes Fenster’ - so bezeichnete sich selbst SAID, einer der wichtigsten zeitgenössischen iranischen Autoren, der seit langer Zeit in Deutschland lebte und publizierte. Obwohl Politik und Exil, zusammen mit Liebe und Religion, die zentralen Themenfelder seines literarischen Schaffens waren, verstand er sich nicht als politischer Autor. Vielmehr sah er sich als Augenmenschen, der die Realität aufmerksam beobachtete und mit seinen Werken das Gewissen seiner Leser in Bezug auf die schon lange andauernde politische und religiöse Unterdrückung im Iran aufrütteln wollte. Da gerade die Religion seit einigen Jahren SAIDs Lieblingsthema war, fokussiert sich der Beitrag auf …
Carriage of potentially fish-pathogenic bacteria in Sparus aurata cultured in Mediterranean fish farms.
2003
A bacteriological survey of gilthead sea bream Sparus aurata from different fish farms and culture systems on the Spanish Mediterranean coast was conducted. Three different studies were performed. Study A included hatchery-reared larvae; Study B, periodic examination of randomly sampled growing fish; and Study C, growing fish sampled only during mortality/morbidity events. In Studies B and C, sea cages, earth ponds and indoor tanks were surveyed, and in both cases diseased (showing clinical signs) and non-diseased fish were included. In Study A, a shift from Vibrio spp. (30 d after hatching) to oxidative species (60 d after hatching) was detected, and no mortality events were registered. Th…
The playa environments of the Lodève Permian basin (Languedoc-France).
2008
28 pages; International audience; The Lodève Permian synrift sequence is represented by thick stacked climate-controled playa cycles which have been constrained by structural, sedimentological, geochemical and paleontological processes. The present paper merges the different results in order to better constrain the dynamics and palaeoecologycal evolution of the playa system from Late Cisuralian to Early Lopingian time. In this depositional environment, thining upwards sheet-flood sequences represent flooding events; they are relayed by ephemeral ponding, suspension settling and limited carbonate precipitation accompanied by large amounts of shallow to subaerial sedimentary structures (curre…
The increase in maternal expression of axin1 and axin2 contribute to the zebrafish mutant ichabod ventralized phenotype.
2014
β-Catenin is a central effector of the Wnt pathway and one of the players in Ca(+)-dependent cell-cell adhesion. While many wnts are present and expressed in vertebrates, only one β-catenin exists in the majority of the organisms. One intriguing exception is zebrafish that carries two genes for β-catenin. The maternal recessive mutation ichabod presents very low levels of β-catenin2 that in turn affects dorsal axis formation, suggesting that β-catenin1 is incapable to compensate for β-catenin2 loss and raising the question of whether these two β-catenins may have differential roles during early axis specification. Here we identify a specific antibody that can discriminate selectively for β-…
Dysfunction of Torr causes a Harlequin-type ichthyosis-like phenotype in Drosophila melanogaster
2019
AbstractPrevention of desiccation is a constant challenge for terrestrial organisms. Land insects have an extracellular coat, the cuticle, that plays a major role in protection against exaggerated water loss. Here, we report that the ABC transporter Torr - a human ABCA12 paralog - contributes to the waterproof barrier function of the cuticle in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. We show that the reduction or elimination of Torr function provokes rapid desiccation. Torr is also involved in defining the inward barrier against xenobiotics penetration. Consistently, the amounts of cuticular hydrocarbons that are involved in cuticle impermeability decrease markedly when Torr activity is redu…
