Identification of self(in)compatibility genotypes and microsatellite marker based fingerprinting of traditional italian sweet cherry accessions
2012
Italy is one of the main European sweet cherry producers and it has a rich germplasm, including many minor local varieties that have not been well studied or used in breeding programmes. Sweet cherry is self-incompatible, with few exceptions; its incompatibility is controlled by a multi-allelic S locus, which is gametophytically expressed. The knowledge of S-alleles and cross-incompatibility groups of sweet cherry genotypes and cultivars is important for growers and breeders. In this work we analysed 48 traditional sweet cherry varieties and cultivars, mainly from Calabria and Emilia Romagna regions, together with eight Sicilian cultivars and the standard set of reference genotypes proposed…
Harmonisation of Higher Education in Agricultural/Biosystems Engineering
2018
The international harmonisation of the Higher Education Area (HEA) in Agricultural/Biosystems Engineering (ABE), was started by Prof. Giuseppe Pellizzi during the CIGR 1989 Conference. This action was carried out in the EU by EurAgEng SIG RD12 - Education and Communication (Chairman Prof. Pierluigi Febo from 1994) and also elsewhere by CIGR WG1 - Agricultural Engineering University Curricula Harmonization (Chairman Prof. Pierluigi Febo from 1994 and Secretary Dr. Antonio Comparetti from 2007). The book and CD-ROM: “The University Structure and Curricula on Agricultural Engineering. An overview of 36 countries”, were presented by Prof. Pierluigi Febo during the AgEng 2000 Conference. Three t…

14.9 ANALYTICAL TECHNIQUES
2012
An analytical technique is a method that is used to determine the value of a certain characteristic of the material, for example the amount of a chemical compound or the concentration of chemical elements. There is a wide variety of techniques used for analysis, from a simple analytical balance to very advanced techniques using highly specialized instrumentations. As an example, the most common techniques used in analytical chemistry are listed in Figure 14.1. The analytical techniques are characterized by their invasiveness, type of information supplied, physical state of the sample, being portable or not, resolution, how much sample it needs, expression of the result, what materials can b…

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…
Highly contaminated areas as sources of pollution for adjoining ecosystems: The case of Augusta Bay (Central Mediterranean).
2014
An assessment of trace element and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) contamination based on surface sediments collected in summer 2012 was carried out in Priolo Bay adjoining one of the most polluted areas of the Mediterranean Sea, the industrial Augusta harbour (Italy, Central Mediterranean). Inorganic and organic contaminants were generally not remarkable. Occasional elevated concentrations of Hg, Cd, Ni and PAHs exceeding sediment quality guidelines were detected in the northern sector of Priolo Bay, close to Augusta harbour, possibly as a result of water drainage of industrialised and urbanised areas and/or potential direct export of contaminated material from Augusta harbour, whose…
IL PROGRAMMA MESSAGGERI DELLA CONOSCENZA
2014
L'opportunità di frequentare un Corso di Ingegneria Naturalistica, offerta agli studnti dell'Università di Palermo, è stata determinata del programma Messaggeri della conoscenza promosso dal MIUR del 2012. Il Dipartimento di Architettura, intestatrio del progetto ID 181: Igegneria naturalistica per la progettazione paesaggistica in aree urbane degradate caratterizzate da clima Mediterraneo, attraversso il Laboratorio di Arte dei Giardini e Architettura del Paesaggio del prof. Giuseppe Guerrera, ha svolto le funzioni di coordinamento e promozione del Corso offrendolo agli studenti di Architettura, Ingegneria-Architettura, Igegneria Ambientale, Scienze Agrarie e Forestali. L'obiettivo dell'in…
Ri-costruzione del fronte a mare della Cala a Palermo
2013
Giuseppe Samonà nel Piano Programma di Palermo (1979-1982) prevedeva di completare il fronte a mare della Cala con un’architettura capace di intessere relazioni fra le preesistenze. In continuità con quel punto di vista, un progetto di nuovi alloggi diviene l’opportunità per cercare di dimostrare come una lettura critica del tessuto urbano possa condurre a intervenire in un contesto storico senza ricorrere a soluzioni mimetiche pur mantenendo, o possibilmente potenziando, le peculiarità del luogo. Il sistema antico, concentrico alla sponda e interrotto dai bombardamenti, è quindi riconfigurato con un corpo semicircolare che si attesta, a est, alla chiesa di Santa Maria di Porto Salvo. L’art…
FLUX CITY HOUSE: re-immaginare il futuro di Manhattan. La centralità del programma nel progetto di New York 2030-2050-2100
2022
In the future, architecture and the city will no longer be a place, but a condition of co-transformative and shared sustainability. In the era of increasing global warming, ecological and energy transition, architecture creates a new balance through the project, at the intertwining of multiple of many fields of knowledge. Sustainability will lead to new perspectives of urban regeneration, as social perspective and a new way of living, consuming and producing, in a broad reverberation of innovations on the ethical and political level of the relationship with societies. Within this frame, the project Flux-city House, winner of the first prize at the “SUAE Asia Winter School Campus: SoHo rezon…
