Homozygote Depression in Gamete-Derived Dragon-Fruit (Hylocereus) Lines
2018
Putative gamete-derived progenies from two Hylocereus species, the diploid H. monacanthus and the tetraploid H. megalanthus, were studied with the dual aims to confirm their gamete origin and to evaluate their potential use as genetic resources. An additional goal was to determine the origin (allotetraploid vs. autotetraploid) of H. megalanthus by exploring morphological variations in the di-haploid (2x) H. megalanthus progeny. Gamete origin was proved in all five H. monacanthus lines obtained and in 49 of the 70 H. megalanthus lines by using flow cytometry and simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. The five double-haploid (2x) H. monacanthus lines showed low vigor and abnormal flower develo…
Regulating Internet Trade in CITES Species
2013
International trade in species that are or may be endangered by collection from the wild is regulated under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of wild fauna and flora (CITES) for 176 member States (Parties). Internet commerce is a relatively new route for such trade. In 2007, the CITES Secretariat asked Parties to collect information on internet wildlife trade and report problems and implemented regulations. The reports indicated it was difficult to even approximate the influence of e-commerce on CITES-listed species (CITES Secretariat 2009). We report a case study in which we quantified international transactions over an internet auction site of CITES-listed cacti …
The body talks: Sensorimotor communication and its brain and kinematic signatures
2019
Human communication is a traditional topic of research in many disciplines such as psychology, linguistics and philosophy, all of which mainly focused on language, gestures and deictics. However, these do not constitute the sole channels of communication, especially during online social interaction, where instead an additional critical role may be played by sensorimotor communication (SMC). SMC refers here to (often subtle) communicative signals embedded within pragmatic actions - for example, a soccer player carving his body movements in ways that inform a partner about his intention, or to feint an adversary; or the many ways we offer a glass of wine, rudely or politely. SMC is a natural …
Darbstaciju pārraudzība uzņēmuma lokālajā tīklā
2015
Bakalaura darba ietvaros notiek sešu darbstaciju pārraudzībai izmantojamu sistēmu teorētisks apskats, no kurām trīs, autoresprāt, interesantākā un piemērotākās jaunam administratoram un efektīvai parraudzībai, tiks izmēģinātas praktiskā veidā. Darbā atrodams plašs informācijas klāst par pārraudzības sistēmām, kā arī Zabbix, Munin un Cacti sistēmu izmēģinājuma detalizēts apraksts. Darba beigās autore izved secinājumus un izvirza autoresprāt labākos risinājumus dažādām vajadzībām. Darbs būs interesants jauniem administratoriem, kuriem potenciāli jāveic tīkla darbstaciju pārraudzība.
