Effect of diet and CSN1S1 genotype on nutritional, productive and metabolic responses of milking Girgentana goats
2011
Effects of diet and genotype at CSN1S1 locus on the oxidative stress in lactating goats
2011
Twenty-eight Girgentana goats were selected on the basis of their CSN1S1 genotype as follows: 14 goats homozygous for strong (AA) alleles and 14 goats heterozygous (AF). The goats were used in a 2 x 4 factorial arrangement of treatments, with the two genotypes (G) and four diets (D). The diets were: a pelleted alfalfa hay (100H), a complete feed including alfalfa hay at 65% (65H), fresh sulla (Hedysarum coronarium L.) forage (100S) and fresh sulla plus barley (65S). Each trial consisted of 15d for adaptation and 8d for sample collection, during which the goats received the scheduled diet ad libitum. Blood samples were collected at the end of pre-experimental and experimental period. Plasma …
Feed intake, milk composition and cheesemaking properties in Girgentana grazing goats with different genotype at αs1-casein and K-casein
2009
Milk ability for cheese manufacturing depends on both animals utilization of dietary nutrients and genetic polymorphism of caseins. It is well known that strong alleles associated with high content of as1-casein increase cheese-making properties of goat milk, whereas there is little information about effect of genetic variants of κ-casein. The aim of this experiment was to investigate the effect of some composite as1-casein and κ-casein genotypes n changing feeding behavior at pasture and milk yield and properties of Girgentana goats. Forty goats were genotyped at as1, as2, b and κ-casein loci using specific PCR protocols at DNA level and IEF technique at milk protein level. Twelve goats, d…

Growth and reproduction of the deep-water rose shrimp, Parapenaeus longirostris (Lucas, 1846) (Decapoda, Penaeidae), in the southern Tyrrhenian sea.
2014
From June 2006 to May 2007, monthly samples of Parapenaeus longirostris (Lucas, 1846) were collected on land from the landings of two different, although contiguous, fishing grounds exploited by the bottom trawl fisheries of the two fishing harbours of Terrasini and Porticello, located on the north-western coast of Sicily. Carapace length (CL) of the female and male deep-water rose shrimp in Terrasini ranged from 9 to 32 mm and 13 to 26 mm, respectively, whereas in Porticello the length ranged from 8 to 31 mm and 13 to 26 mm, respectively. The Von Bertalanffy Growth Function parameters for Terrasini females and males were CLoo = 38.5 mm, K = 0.65 year(-1) and CL infinity = 32.5 mm, K = 0.85…

Spatio-temporal composition of discard associated with the deep water rose shrimp fisheries (Parapenaeus longirostris, Lucas 1846) in the south-centr…
2017
Discarding in fisheries is the fraction of the total catch brought on board and returned to the sea dead or alive for legal or economic reasons. The reduction of discard is one of the main objectives of the European Common Fishery Policy. This study aimed to improve the current knowledge of the discard associated with the deep-water rose shrimp (DPS) fisheries in the south-central Mediterranean Sea. We analyzed data collected from January 2009 to December 2013. Multivariate data analysis and generalized additive models (GAMs) were used to assess the spatio-temporal composition of the discard (which represented 36% of the total catch) and factors influencing its distribution. Multiple analys…
L'architettura ad Alcamo tra Quattrocento e Cinquecento
2015
La serie di fabbriche e di trasformazioni architettoniche che si svolgono ad Alcamo fra 1450 e 1550 appare notevole (le grandi trasformazioni del castello, gli interventi nella chiesa madre, le torri residenziali, i cantieri religiosi della SS. Annunziata, di S. Francesco, di S. Maria di Gesù ecc.). Non si tratta di opere complesse o monumentali ma di edifici che la storia ci ha consegnato in resti o frammenti e che restituiscono un momento particolare per la storia dell'architettura delineando un secolo "bilingue".Ad Alcamo agiscono committenti colti come Pietro Speciale (governo di Alcamo 1457-1484), con il quale arrivano le prime sculture classiciste e si innesca la fase delle opere in m…
Maestri e cantieri del Cinquecento in un centro della Sicilia occidentale: Alcamo
2020
La città di Alcamo (in provincia di Trapani) è stato uno dei luoghi dove la resistenza al classicismo e la sopravvivenza del gotico si sono protratte a lungo, travalicando la metà del XVI secolo con l'esperienza di artefici di provenienza esterna e di formazione tradizionale ma aperti a un ventaglio di possibili alternative, disponibili a incamerare opzioni diverse o ad utilizzare indifferentemente i due linguaggi. Non si tratta di un episodio isolato o di un'eccezione, poiché in molteplici periferie siciliane non studiate, ancora in pieno Cinquecento, si può assistere a un fenomeno analogo. Alcamo comunque costituisce un osservatorio ideale: qui sperimentazioni, combinazioni, integrazioni …
