Loss of

2020

The early secretory pathway involves bidirectional transport between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the Golgi apparatus and is mediated by coat protein complex I (COPI)-coated and coat protein complex II (COPII)-coated vesicles. COPII vesicles are involved in ER to Golgi transport meanwhile COPI vesicles mediate intra-Golgi transport and retrograde transport from the Golgi apparatus to the ER. The key component of COPI vesicles is the coatomer complex, that is composed of seven subunits (α/β/β'/γ/δ/ε/ζ). In Arabidopsis two genes coding for the β-COP subunit have been identified, which are the result of recent tandem duplication. Here we have used a loss-of-function approach to study the…

Crocus sativus L. Ecotypes from Mediterranean Countries: Phenological, Morpho-Productive, Qualitative and Genetic Traits

2021

The characterization of C. sativus ecotypes is of great interest for preserving them from a possible genetic erosion due to the decrease of European cultivation surface. In this study, we evaluated four ecotypes from Italy (Sardinia and Abruzzo), Spain (Castilla-La Mancha), and Greece (Kozani) in order to detect the existence of variability and promote the biodiversity of this crop. Thirty-one traits related to saffron flowering, flower morphology, production of spice and daughter corms, vegetative development (leaf and corm traits), and spice quality, were evaluated. In addition, a genetic analysis through three PCR-based approaches, SSRs, RAPD, and SRAP was assessed. Results highlighted a…

Creixement del MgCdO: un nou aliatge ternari d'òxids II-VI

2017

Els nous reptes tecnològics impulsen el desenvolupament de nous materials amb les propietats físiques adients per satisfer les necessitats de cada aplicació. Així, el desenvolupament de nous materials optoelectrònics ha rebut una gran atenció de la comunitat científica els últims anys. Més concretament, els compostos II-VI com els òxids de Zn, Cd i Mg o els aliatges ternaris ZnMgO i ZnCdO han sigut i estan sent àmpliament estudiats degut a les seues propietats físiques que els doten d'un gran potencial per al seu ús en dispositius optoelectrònics com díodes emissors de llum (LED per les sigles en anglès de Light-Emitting Diode) o sensors de radiació ultraviolada [Nieda2016, Wang2010, Mohant…

Exploiting the diversity of tomato: the development of a phenotypically and genetically detailed germplasm collection

2020

[EN] A collection of 163 accessions, including Solanum pimpinellifolium, Solanum lycopersicum var. cerasiforme and Solanum lycopersicum var. lycopersicum, was selected to represent the genetic and morphological variability of tomato at its centers of origin and domestication: Andean regions of Peru and Ecuador and Mesoamerica. The collection is enriched with S. lycopersicum var. cerasiforme from the Amazonian region that has not been analyzed previously nor used extensively. The collection has been morphologically characterized showing diversity for fruit, flower and vegetative traits. Their genomes were sequenced in the Varitome project and are publicly available (solgenomics.net/projects/…

Histomorphological study of the bone regeneration capacity of platelet-rich plasma, bone marrow and tricalcium phosphate Experimental study on pigs

2009

Introduction: Bone defects are rather common after oral surgery and may prove difficult to repair. Objective: We provide a histomorphological analysis of the bone regenerative capacity of platelet-rich plasma at different concentrations and the extraction of platelet-rich bone marrow, compared with -tricalcium phosphate. Methodology: We performed an experimental study on 8 pigs, in which we performed trepanations of the mandible in order to place the materials to be studied. Using an electron microscope, we observed the samples obtained and took a series of photographs in order to analyze the samples through a gray-scale histogram system. Results: Ossification phenomena were present in 96% …

El derecho de tenuta como garantía de la restitución dotal en el derecho foral valenciano

2000

The right of «tenuta» arises once the year of mourning —«any de plor»— has elapsed where the heirs to the deceased husband have neither returned the dowry —«exovar»— to the surviving wife nor paid the dotal increase —«creix»—. The widow then obtains possession of the deceased husband's property and is entitled to its usufruct by operation of law. Its purpose is to act as a guarantee, since it aims to secure the return of the «exovar». The «tenuta» ceases when the heirs return the dowry and pay the dotal increase, which means that if they do so immediately after the marriage has ceased, the right does not take effect. The widow may also be deprived of the «tenuta» if she retains it malicious…

Polymorphisms in ABC transporter genes and concentrations of mercury in newborns - Evidence from two Mediterranean birth cohorts

2014

Background: The genetic background may influence methylmercury (MeHg) metabolism and neurotoxicity. ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporters actively transport various xenobiotics across biological membranes. Objective: To investigate the role of ABC polymorphisms as modifiers of prenatal exposure to MeHg. Methods: The study population consisted of participants (n = 1651) in two birth cohorts, one in Italy and Greece (PHIME) and the other in Spain (INMA). Women were recruited during pregnancy in Italy and Spain, and during the perinatal period in Greece. Total mercury concentrations were measured in cord blood samples by atomic absorption spectrometry. Maternal fish intake during pregnancy w…

Introduction: A New Look at the Origins of Economic Growth and Regional Inequality

2018

The contributions to this special issue share important themes and methodologies in their quest to explicate economic development and its effects. Nonetheless, each area under examination has its own peculiarities and warrants its own scope of analysis. The result is a special issue that pursues an innovative line of research, exploring parallels and contrasts in economic growth and inequality based on new data at the regional, rather than simply the national, level. The authors are grateful to the following institutions for their financial support of the research in this special issue of The Journal of Interdisciplinary History: (1) European Union (EU— Jean Monnet Action); (2) ICREA—Genera…
