Linguistic, geographic and genetic isolation: a collaborative study of Italian populations
2014
Summary - The animal and plant biodiversity of the Italian territory is known to be one of the richest in the Mediterranean basin and Europe as a whole, but does the genetic diversity of extant human populations show a comparable pattern? According to a number of studies, the genetic structure of Italian populations retains the signatures of complex peopling processes which took place from the Paleolithic to modern era. Although the observed patterns highlight a remarkable degree of genetic heterogeneity, they do not, however, take into account an important source of variation. In fact, Italy is home to numerous ethnolinguistic minorities which have yet to be studied systematically. Due to …
Crescere in IPM. Il trattamento dei giovani adulti autori di reato
2017
Il trattamento dei giovani adulti all’interno delle strutture penitenziarie minorili, in seguito all’emanazione del D.L. 92/14 convertito in legge nel mese di agosto dello stesso anno, impone una riflessione e un’analisi sulle opportune modalita trattamentali non solo per i soggetti minorenni ma anche per giovani adulti tra i 18 e i 25 anni. Confrontarsi, infatti, con l’esigenza di rispondere in modo adeguato ai bisogni di una nuova tipologia di utenza e il principale compito dell’educatore penitenziario che necessita di programmi di formazione per acquisire competenze specifiche e costruire idonei percorsi trattamentali. Questi, se dotati di senso e rispondenti alle necessita di crescita d…
Multiplex PCR for species discrimination of Sclerotiniaceae by novel laccase introns
2006
Common PCR-based targets for the identification of filamentous fungi and yeasts are the sequences of the internal transcribed spacer region (ITS1, 5.8S rDNA, ITS2). Within the Sclerotiniaceae the ITS-region is homogenous and the identification is almost impossible. Furthermore, the lack of IGS-data (intergenic spacer region) requires new specific marker genes for a rapid identification of phytopathogenic Sclerotiniaceae. We sequenced and analyzed new laccase2 (lcc2) genes from the phylogenetically related Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary, Sclerotinia minor Jagger, and Monilinia fructigena Honey. Comparative analysis revealed remarkable differences in length and sequence compared to t…
Isozyme uniformity in a wild extinct insular plant,Lysimachia minoricensisJ.J. Rodr. (Primulaceae)
1999
Isozyme analyses were conducted to evaluate the genetic diversity of seed accessions of Lysimachia minoricensis (a Balearic endemic plant that became extinct in the wild) provided by 10 European botanical gardens. No isozyme variation was detected after examination of the electrophoretic patterns of 22 putative loci in more than 150 plants. The lack of genetic variation in L. minoricensis is probably due to the shortage of sample propagules originally recovered in the field before its extinction. Extant plants of L. minoricensis are believed to have originated from a single source, therefore limiting their use as seed stocks for restoration projects.
Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers detect a single phenotype in Lysimachia minoricensis J.J. Rodr. (Primulaceae), a wild extinct plant
2000
Lysimachia minoricensis is a Mediterranean (Balearic Islands) endemic that is extinct in the wild but extant in botanical gardens. Previously, no variation at 22 isozyme loci was revealed in more than 150 analysed plants. Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis was used to examine genetic variation among five individuals from each of eight botanical garden accessions (40 plants). No polymorphisms were detected at 201 amplified bands. This is the first report of RAPD monomorphism in a nonapomictic vascular plant. The lack of detectable genetic variation suggests that an extremely reduced gene pool was recovered in the field before its extinction. Although the screening of other geno…
Seed germination and reproductive features of Lysimachia minoricensis (Primulaceae), a wild-extinct plant.
2002
Lysimachia minoricensis is one of the few Mediterranean endemic plants (Minorca, Balearic islands) that has gone extinct in the wild but which persists as extant germplasm or cultivated plants in several botanical gardens. Reproductive features (seed set, number of seeds per capsule, seed weight) and germination responses to constant temperatures, sea water and dry-heat pre-treatments were investigated to determine the extent to which they may have influenced the extinction of the species. Seed set in Lysimachia is not dependent on pollinators, suggesting a functional selfer breeding system. Most plants produced a large mean number of fruits (23.2) and seeds (466), and the mean production o…
Chiaroscuri della mediazione penale nel 'rito di pace'
2010
Nel processo penale irrompe una nuova logica: quella della «relazione diadica tra ‘aggressore e aggredito’», che sembrerebbe «‘l’orizzonte di senso’ del rito innanzi al giudice di pace per i reati perseguibili a querela, contribuendo, così, a scolpire un nuovo modello di ‘giustizia sociale’, il cui paradigma connotativo è la mediazione, vero quid novi visibile in filigrana nella struttura del d.lgs. n. 274/2000». Tuttavia non pochi sono i chiaroscuri del nuovo congegno che l'Autrice mette in risalto.
Schlesien als Brücke - aber wohin? Vielfache Dimensionen einer äußerst beliebten Metapher
2020
Artykuł prezentuje różnorodne aspekty użycia metafory pomostu w odniesieniu do Śląska, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem Górnego Śląska. Region ten jest przedstawiany metaforycznie jako pomost pomiędzy Polską a Niemcami oraz mieszkańcami obu krajów. Szczególna rola w tworzeniu tych więzi przypada mniejszości niemieckiej, która jest częstokroć określana jako pomost. Metafora ta jest rozszerzana o kolejne płaszczyzny znaczeniowe, jak np. pomost do Europy czy pomost między narodami. Autorka zauważa jednak, że Śląsk nie jest jedynym regionem pretendującym do bycia pomostem. Także inne europejskie miasta, regiony, jak i całe państwa chcą być postrzegane w tej roli.
