Drawing conclusions about what co-participants know: Knowledge-probing question–answer sequences in new employee orientation lectures
2019
This study aims to uncover the processes of interaction through which knowledge acquisition in new employee orientation is monitored and controlled. Using video-recordings of orientation lectures as data, the study focuses on question–answer sequences in which the lecturer’s question probes into the state of the employees’ knowledge; in particular, it looks at the third turn of the sequence, in which the lecturer comes to a conclusion concerning the participants’ knowledge. This is shown to be an unavoidably practical accomplishment, which is contingent on both the often ambivalent responses of the participants and the design of the knowledge-probing question. Also, the lecturer orients to…
Old sleeping Sicilian beauty: seed germination in the palaeoendemic Petagnaea gussonei (Spreng.) Rauschert (Saniculoideae, Apiaceae).
2015
Petagnaea gussonei (Apiaceae) is a perennial herbaceous species endemic to northeast Sicily (Nebrodi Mountains). It is considered a remnant of the Sicilian Tertiary flora, and is endangered according to the Red List. There is no information in the literature about the germinability of its seeds, even though seed production is know to occur. The aim of this study was to obtain data to better understand seed germination of this species and its biological implications. Thus, several approaches were employed: vitality analyses, gibberellic acid supply, germination and soil microbial flora analyses via end-point and qPCR. The results suggest that seed germination occurs after ca. 1.5 years at a …

Dynamics of soil organic carbon pools after agricultural abandonment
2014
Abandonment of agricultural land and the subsequent recolonization by natural vegetation is known to cause increases in C contents, contributing to reduction in atmospheric CO2 concentrations. Assessment of the possible mitigation of CO2 excess requires understanding the SOC dynamics, the origin of C pools and the pathways of their transformation. The aims of this work were to assess, by using the δ13C signature, the changes of old and new organic C in total (soil organic carbon, SOC) and labile (microbial biomass C, MBC, dissolved organic C, DOC, CO2 efflux from soil) pools after vegetation change from vineyard (C3) to grassland (C4) under semiarid Mediterranean climate. Colonization of ab…
Use Of Plants To Remediate Soil Polluted With Oil
2015
In the present investigation the growing and development ability of various annual and perennial plants to grow on model peat substrate artificially polluted with oil products in the range of concentrations from 1 to 5% was evaluated. The highest tolerance towards peat contamination by oil products has been demonstrated by three annual crops (maize, oat and lupine). These plants were tested for phytoremediation of polluted black soil from the area of oil refinery plant (Mazeikiai, Lithuania), which was treated by association of oil oxidizing bacteria up to residual concentration of the oil products of 4.5 %. The maize plants revealed the highest remediation ability: oil content in the soil …
Spatial and temporal stability of weed populations over five years
2000
Abstract The size, location, and variation in time of weed patches within an arable field were analyzed with the ultimate goal of simplifying weed mapping. Annual and perennial weeds were sampled yearly from 1993 to 1997 at 410 permanent grid points in a 1.3-ha no-till field sown to row crops each year. Geostatistical techniques were used to examine the data as follows: (1) spatial structure within years; (2) relationships of spatial structure to literature-derived population parameters, such as seed production and seed longevity; and (3) stability of weed patches across years. Within years, densities were more variable across crop rows and patches were elongated along rows. Aggregation of …
Ciclos de fecundación in vitro y maduración final con agonista GNRH: Explorando dosis bajas de HCG para soporte de fase lutea
2010
La hormona gonadotropina coriónica humana (hCG) se emplea de forma rutinaria para inducir la maduración final ovocitaria en ciclos de fecundación in vitro (FIV). Sin embargo, su utilización está relacionada con la aparición del Síndrome de Hiperestimulación Ovárica (SHO), especialmente cuando ciertos factores de riesgo están presentes, principalmente la presencia de un número elevado de folículos. Este riesgo puede ser drásticamente disminuido sustituyendo la hCG por un agonista GnRH como inductor de la maduración final en ciclos FIV con antagonistas GnRH. Aunque, este uso se asocia a una alta tasa de aborto temprano ocasionada por una fase lútea deficiente. La función del cuerpo lúteo se v…
L'obrador de Pere Nicolau i la segona generació de pintors del Gòtic Internacional a València
2011
La tesi doctoral analitza la trajectòria professional de Pere Nicolau (1390-1408), pintor de retaules actiu a València a la fi del segle XIV i primera dècada del segle XV. Aquest pintor és fonamental per explicar la gènesi i introducció de l’estil internacional a València. L’objectiu de la recerca era fer una revisió crítica del pintor i de la seua relació amb altres pintors relacionats amb el seu obrador: Antoni Peris, Jaume Mateu, Gonçal Peris o Gonçal Peris Sarrià. La investigació ha estat estructurada en tres parts. La primera se dedica a l’estudi i sistematització de la historiografia anterior sobre el tema. Era un pas imprescindible donada la complexitat de l’esquema atributiu i la di…
Mujer y representación política institucional en la Comunidad Valenciana. 1977-1995. Diputadas, ministras y cargos institucionales
2014
“Mujer y representación política institucional en la Comunidad Valenciana. 1977-1995. Diputadas, ministras y cargos institucionales” es la primera parte de un trabajo de documentación para un capítulo de “La democracia en la Comunidad Valenciana. Partidos, elites políticas, elecciones y programas políticos”. “Mujer, poder político y democracia paritaria”. Se recoge el papel de la mujer en la vida política de la Comunidad Valenciana en la democracia actual, desde 1977. Es documentación sin elaborar, pero que aporta datos de la presencia de la mujer en las instituciones, partidos y sindicatos. Cuando este completa será una parte de la investigación referida, y de la que ya hay dos publicacion…
