Cadmium and nickel accumulation in rice plants. Effects on mineral nutrition and possible interactions of abscisic and gibberellic acids
1994
Rice plants accumulate high quantities of Cd and Ni when grown for 10 days in a medium containing these heavy metals. Accompanying Cd and Ni uptake, a decrease in shoot and root length was observed, though dry matter accumulation was not affected accordingly. Metal treatments also induced a decrease in K, Ca and Mg contents in the plants, particularly in the shoots, indicating that Cd and Ni interfered not only with nutrient uptake but also with nutrient distribution into the different plant parts. Addition of abscisic acid (ABA) or gibberellic acid (GA3) to the external solution could not overcome the depressing effects of the metals on nutrient acquisition, and even induced a further decr…
Interacciones dieta-genotipo entre el consumo de grasas y polimorfismos comunes determinando el metabolismo lipídico
2009
Las recomendaciones dietéticas actuales referentes al consumo de grasas en la dieta han sido realizadas sin tener en cuenta las posibles diferencias genéticas de las personas que podrían ser las responsables de las diferentes respuestas interindividuales que frecuentemente se observan ante la misma dieta. La presencia de variabilidad genética ha sido puesta de manifiesto para todos los genes relacionados con el metabolismo lipídico, por lo que existe un ingente número de genes y de variantes genéticas para ser incluidas en los estudios sobre interacciones dieta-genotipo en el ámbito específico del consumo de grasas y aceites. Se revisarán algunos ejemplos sobre interacciones grasa-genotipo.…
Nitrogen and phosphorus budgets in experimental grasslands of variable diversity.
2007
Previous research has shown that plant diversity influences N and P cycles. However, the effect of plant diversity on complete ecosystem N and P budgets has not yet been assessed. For 20 plots of artificially established grassland mixtures differing in plant diversity, we determined N and P inputs by bulk and dry deposition and N and P losses by mowing (and subsequent removal of the biomass) and leaching from April 2003 to March 2004. Total deposition of N and P was 2.3 +/- 0.1 and 0.2 +/- 0.01 g m(-2) yr(-1), respectively. Mowing was the main N and P loss. The net N and P budgets were negative (-6.3 +/- 1.1 g N and -1.9 +/- 0.2 g P m(-2) yr(-1)). For N, this included a conservative estimat…
Dialyzability of iron, zinc, and copper of different types of infant formulas marketed in Spain
1998
The bioavailability of trace elements in infant formulas is affected by different physiological and dietetic factors. In vitro methods based on element dialyzability have been proposed to estimate the bioavailability. Infant formulas of the same type but from different manufacturers can differ in the salt used for supplementation and in the contents of other components that can affect mineral bioavailability. The aim of our study is to estimate the dialyzability of iron, zinc, and copper of formulas marketed in Spain, in order to detect possible differences in formulas of the same type coming from different manufacturers. At the same time, the effects of the type of formula, the composition…

El asesoramiento genético en los déficits visuales y auditivos
2008
espanolObjetivo: Las enfermedades hereditarias que afectan a la retina y la audicion presentan una amplia heterogeneidad clinica y genetica. Durante la pasada decada se han producido importantes avances en el conocimiento de la patogenia molecular de estas enfermedades y, actualmente, mas de 200 genes y loci estan implicados en enfermedades de la retina y mas de 60 son responsables de perdida de audicion. Metodo: El estudio genetico molecular es crucial para confirmar el diagnostico clinico, permite, en ocasiones, conocer el pronostico de la enfermedad, un consejo genetico y reproductivo adecuado y permite la posibilidad de crear grupos de pacientes geneticamente homogeneos para futuros ens…
Assessment of Arundo donax Fibers for Oil Spill Recovery Applications
2019
In the last years, natural fibers are increasingly investigated as an oil recovery system in order to overcome the oil spillage phenomena, thus preserving environment and aquatic life. In particular, lignocellulose-based fibers have recently been employed with promising results. In such a context, the aim of this paper is to assess the oil sorption capability of natural fibers extracted from the stem of the giant reed Arundo donax L., a perennial rhizomatous grass belonging to the Poaceae family that grows naturally all around the world thanks to its ability to tolerate different climatic conditions. Sorption tests in several pollutants and water as a reference were carried out. The fibers …
Nitrogen Use Efficiency and Nitrogen Fertilizer Recovery of Durum Wheat Genotypes as Affected by Interspecific Competition
2010
A better understanding of the genotype response to N fertilization under weed competition is necessary to identify varieties that exhibit high N use effi ciency even when weeds compete for available N. Such varieties may be more suitable for low input or organic systems. Th is study assessed the variations in nitrogen use effi ciency (NUE) (and its components) and the recovery of 15 N-labeled fertilizer in three durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) genotypes (one landrace and two varieties that diff er in terms of plant growth, grain yield potential, and adaptability to stressful environments) grown in the presence or absence of interspecifi c competition and varying soil N availability (0 or…
Il DAP nella mente relazionale. Chiavi di lettura gruppoanalitiche
2012
Il disturbo da attacchi di panico, di cui, ancora oggi, č dibattuta l'autonomia clinica, nel contributo degli autori, viene esplorato da un vertice gruppo analitico soggettuale. L'eziopatogenesi č interconnessa all'ammonimento delle gruppalitŕ interne che coarta le spinte progettuali dell'individuo. Il piacere, sperimentato dal paziente, per la conquista dello spazio libero č intercettato dalle voci familiari e trasfigurato in un'inquietudine vertiginosa (panico), intenzionando il soggetto alla cattivitŕ psichica (dipendenza). La contaminazione tra riflessione teorica e pratica clinica permette di visualizzare specifiche tecniche di regolazione emotiva e di conoscenza implicita. Le modulazi…
