Analysis of tombusvirus revertants to identify essential amino acid residues within RNA-dependent RNA polymerase motifs
2005
The RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) of Tomato bushy stunt virus (TBSV) contains an arginine- and proline-rich (RPR) motif. This motif functions as an RNA-binding domain and is essential for tombusvirus replication. A mutant carrying three arginine substitutions in this motif rendered the virus unable to replicate in Nicotiana benthamiana plants and protoplasts. When the replicase function was provided in trans, by expressing the TBSV RdRp in N. benthamiana plants, an infectious variant could be isolated. Sequence analysis showed that only the substituted glycine residue (position 216) had reverted to arginine; all other substitutions remained unchanged. This finding suggested that stron…
Ambush Marketing in China: Counterbalancing Olympic Sponsorship Efforts
2008
This paper provides an empirical insight into the perception and use of ambush marketing on the People's Republic of China public television network CCTV5 (the official Olympic broadcaster), by examining the commercials used by various corporations during its coverage of the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens. A five-point categorization is presented to distinguish between various methods of ambushing. Despite the efforts of the Beijing government to fight ambush marketing ahead of its Olympic Games in 2008, the results demonstrate that concerns about the practice of ambush marketing in China must be taken seriously. An analysis of 40 commercial spots was carried out, based on China's 2002 Olympi…
Studi tassonomici sulle popolazioni italiane di Halocnemum strobilaceum (Amaranthaceae)
2012
Halocnemum strobilaceum (Pall.) Bieb. fu descritto da Pallas (1771) con il nome di Salicornia strobilacea su campioni provenienti dal Mar Caspio. Questo arbusto succulento fu successivamente segnalato per varie località costiere e dell’entroterra del Mediterraneo, dell’Europa orientale e dei territori interni dell’Asia Minore e centrale fino alla Mongolia. In passato vari autori hanno evidenziato che le popolazioni costiere del Mediterraneo risultano abbastanza differenziate dalle quelle dell’entroterra dei territori euro-asiatici, corrispondenti queste ultime alla specie sensu strictu. Le differenze riguardano soprattutto l’habitus, come pure alcuni rilevanti caratteri morfologici, già evi…
