A single tube PCR assay for detecting viruses and their recombinants that cause tomato yellow leaf curl disease in Mediterranean basin
2007
Tomato yellow leaf curl disease (TYLCD) is well known in Mediterranean countries, where it has been causing severe losses in tomato crops for decades. Until recently, two viruses (with several isolates) in the genus Begomovirus, family Geminiviridae, have been associated with the epidemics: Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) and Tomato yellow leaf curl Sardinia virus (TYLCSV). However, recombinants between these, such as Tomato yellow leaf curl Malaga virus (TYLCMalV), are spreading, and new methods for detecting all viruses present in the region are needed. By considering all DNA sequences available of viruses causing TYLCD in the Mediterranean basin, a PCR/RFLP protocol was developed t…
Sysmä Community Currency: An Analysis of its Success from the Perspectives of Purposes, Stakeholders and Promotion
2019
Artikkeli on tapaustutkimus paikallisrahajärjestelmästä, jota kokeiltiin äskettäin maalaisympäristössä Sysmän kunnassa. Paikallisraha on yksi innovaatiivisista aloitteista, joita kunta on tehnyt tällä vuosituhannella torjuakseen jo 1960-luvulta alkaen käynnissä ollutta väestökatoa. Tässä artikkelissa tutkitaan paikallisrahan käynnistysvaihetta siihen sisältyneiden ristiriitojen näkökulmasta. Artikkelissa todetaan, että järjestelmä kärsi epäselvästä tavoitteenasettelusta, ja että eri osallisilla oli tavoittesta vaihtelevia ja ristiriitaisia käsityksiä. Paikallisrahan sosiaalista hyväksyntää heikensivät päätös rajoittaa rahaa vastaanottavien yritysten joukko kunnassa kirjoilla oleviin yrityks…
Onko urbanisaatio maaseudun turma? : kaupunkien väestönkasvun vaikutukset erityyppisen maaseudun väestökehitykseen Suomessa ajanjaksolla 1990-2015
2018
Kaupungistuminen on edennyt nopeasti Suomessakin, ja samalla maaseutu on menettänyt väestöään ja aktiviteettejaan. Miten urbanisaation eteneminen on vaikuttanut maaseudun kehitykseen? Artikkelin mukaan urbanisaatio levittää kaupunkien ympäristöön sekä ”varjoa” että ”valoa”, mutta ydinmaaseudun ja harvaan asutun maaseudun negatiiviseen kehitykseen se ei ole vaikuttanut. peerReviewed
Conservation of the positions of metazoan introns from sponges to humans
2002
Abstract Sponges (phylum Porifera) are the phylogenetic oldest Metazoa still extant. They can be considered as reference animals (Urmetazoa) for the understanding of the evolutionary processes resulting in the creation of Metazoa in general and also for the metazoan gene organization in particular. In the marine sponge Suberites domuncula , genes encoding p38 and JNK kinases contain nine and twelve introns, respectively. Eight introns in both genes share the same positions and the identical phases. One p38 intron slipped for six bases and the JNK gene has three more introns. However, the sequences of the introns are not conserved and the introns in JNK gene are generally much longer. Intron…
Is Broad the New Deep in Environmental Ethics? A Comparison of Broad Ecological Justice and Deep Ecology
2016
I argue in this article that a theory of broad ecological justice or the extended capabilities approach, an interesting approach in contemporary environmental ethics, shares many of its core ideas with deep ecology and Arne Næss’s ecosophy T. The similarities between these approaches include the ambition to address the roots of environmental problems, emphasis on recognition and the criticism of oppressive structures, and a systemic orientation. Acknowledging these similarities illustrates the contemporary value of the deep ecology movement. It also helps to develop the theory of broad ecological justice further, especially in terms of bridging the gap between movements and theoretical disc…
Économie des villes contemporaines
2009
International audience; Pourquoi existe-t-il des villes ? Pourquoi les villes attirent, pourquoi elles repoussent ? D'où vient leur puissance économique ? Comment déchiffrer la croissance, l'étalement et la recomposition des villes ? Pourquoi sont-elles des lieux de communication, des portes ouvertes sur le monde ? Comment s'imposent les villes globales ? Ce livre propose des réponses à ces questions en faisant appel à l'histoire, aux faits contemporains et au raisonnement économique moderne exposé de manière simple et accessible. Il offre des clés pour mieux comprendre la ville du XXIe siècle.
Fonds structurels, effets de débordement géographique et croissance régionale en Europe.
2008
Les fonds structurels constituent l’un des instruments financiers de la politique regionale europeenne les plus intensement utilises afin de promouvoir la convergence entre les regions des pays membres de l’Union europeenne. Cependant, de nombreuses divergences theoriques et empiriques existent dans la litterature quant a leur capacite a encourager la croissance economique des regions les plus defavorisees. Par consequent, cet article se propose de proceder a des estimations complementaires en integrant des elements nouveaux : tout d’abord, nous adoptons une approche par l’econometrie spatiale afin de prendre en compte de possibles effets de debordement geographique entre regions ; ensuite,…
Rola Grafschafter Gesangbuch Wilhelma Kothego z 1878 r. w upowszechnieniu pieśni kościelnej na ziemi kłodzkiej
2020
This article is dedicated to the history and meaning of the Catholic Song and Prayer Book for the faithful in Kłodzko county, the first edition of which appeared in 1878 and was edited by Wilhelm Kothe. The collection went through a total of six successive editions. It contained almost 200 various kinds of hymns with musical notations. They included above all old and indigenous church songs, which made the songbook very popular among the faithful in Kłodzko county. Many parishes even made a custom of offering it to children on the occasion of their first Holy Communion. There is no doubt that the Grafschafter Gesangbuch played a leading role in restoring the religious song in German to its …
