Theta-characteristics on singular curves
2007
On a smooth curve a theta–characteristic is a line bundle L with square that is the canonical line bundle ω. The equivalent conditionHom(L, ω) ∼= L generalizes well to singular curves, as applications show. More precisely, a theta–characteristic is a torsion–free sheaf F of rank 1 with Hom(F , ω) ∼= F . If the curve has non ADE–singularities then there are infinitely many theta–characteristics. Therefore, theta–characteristics are distinguished by their local type. The main purpose of this article is to compute the number of even and odd theta–characteristics (i.e. F with h(C,F) ≡ 0 resp. h(C,F) ≡ 1 modulo 2) in terms of the geometric genus of the curve and certain discrete invariants of a …
Metabolism of fatty acid in yeast: Characterisation of beta-oxidation and ultrastructural changes in the genus Sporidiobolus sp cultivated on ricinol…
2005
International audience; Cell structure modifications and b-oxidation induction were monitored in two strains of Sporidiobolus, Sp. Ruinenii and Sp. pararoseus after cultivation on ricinoleic acid methyl ester. Ultrastructural observations of the yeast before and after cultivation on fatty acid esters did not reveal major modifications in Sp. ruinenii. Unexpectedly, in Sp. pararoseus a proliferation of the mitochondrion was observed. After induction, Sp. ruinenii principally exhibited an increase in the activities of acyl-CoA oxidase (ACO), hydroxyacyl- CoA deshydrogenase (HAD), thiolase and catalase. In contrast, Sp. pararoseus lacked ACO and catalase activities, but an increase in acyl-CoA…

MOLECULAR ANALYSIS OF COLLETOTRICHUM SPECIES ASSOCIATED TO OLIVE IN CALABRIA.
2013
A new molecular approach based on the use of genus-specific primers targeting the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions of rDNA, was developed and used to study the diversity of Colletotrichum species associated with the olive canopy in the Gioia Tauro plain (Calabria, southern Italy). Representative symptomatic and symptomless samples of leaves, flowers and fruits were collected during 2012 and analyzed by extracting total DNA and amplifying the target region with the genus-specific primers. Amplicons were cloned and sequenced in order to use the ITS as a barcode gene. No Colletotrichum species were detected in the first sampling period (May 28, 2012), whereas around 15% of the analyze…
Metagenomic strategies to assess genetic diversity in Phytophthora species
Generic concept of the phytoseiids (Acari: Phytoseiidae) according to Athias-Henriot
2010
The economic importance of the Phytoseiidae motivated many scientists to work on the systematics of this family. One of them was the French acarologist Claire Athias-Henriot. In her first work, she tackled the question of supraspecific groupings within this family from an evolutionistic point of view, and suggested a system for numbering dorsal shield setae, that could be applied to both hypotrichous and holotrichous forms. She also looked for other characters, such as the ratios of the distance between the insertions of some setae on dorsal and sternal shields, the presence of macrosetae on legs, and the length/width ratio of the ventrianal shield. Following Dosse (1957; 1958) who used the…

Molecular phylogeny of the genus Chondrina (Gastropoda, Panpulmonata, Chondrinidae) in the Iberian Peninsula
2022
[EN] Chondrina Reichenbach, 1828 is a highly diverse genus of terrestrial molluscs currently including 44 species with about 28 subspecific taxa. It is distributed through North Africa, central and southern Europe, from Portugal in the West to the Caucasus and Asia Minor in the East. Approximately 70% of the species are endemic to the Iberian Peninsula constituting its main center of speciation with 34 species. This genus includes many micro endemic taxa, some of them not yet described, confined to limestone habitats (being strictly rock-dwelling species). They are distributed on rocky outcrops up to 2000 m.a.s.l. It is a genus of conical-fusiform snails that differ mainly in shell characte…
New perspectives on the evolution of the genus Typhlatya (Crustacea, Decapoda): first record of a cavernicolous atyid in the Iberian Peninsula, Typhl…
1995
On several occasions, shrimps belonging to a new species of the genus Typhlatya were collected in a cave in the province of Castellón, Spain. This is the first record of the genus in the Iberian Peninsula. The species is described and the validity, distribution, and zoogeography of the genus, as well as the status of the genus Spelaeocaris, are discussed. Former models for the evolution of the genus Typhlatya and its genus group are reviewed, as well as the system of inner classification of the Atyidae and its biogeographical meaning. For the age and evolution of the genus we developed a new model based on vicariance principles that involves further evolution of each species after the disru…
Governo misto’, «quartum genus rei publicae» e separazione dei poteri
2006
IL CONTRIBUTO SI OCCUPA DI UNO DEI TRATTI FONDAMENTALI DELLA TEORIZZAZIONE DELLA 'RES PUBLICA' DELL'ESPERIENZA GIURIDICA ROMANA CHE HA FORTEMENTE CONDIZIONATO LA STORIA DEL PENSIERO POLITICO-COSTITUZIONALE OCCIDENTALE: LA CONCEZIONE DEL GOVERNO MISTO. SI TRATTA, INFATTI, DI UN MODELLO ORGANIZZATIVO CHE, PUR COSTITUENDO UNO DEGLI ASPETTI Più SIGNIFICATIVI DELL'ESPERIENZA COSTITUZIONALE GECA E ROMANA, RAPPRESENTA TUTTAVIA ANCHE UN ELEMENTO DI IMPORTANTE COMPRENSIONE DEI MODELLI SUCCESSIVI E, IN PARTICOLARE, DELLA MODERNA CONCEZIONE DELLA SEPARAZIONE DEI POTERI.
