CHARACTERIZATION OF WATER RELATION TRAITS IN WILD SICILIAN POPULATIONS OF BRASSICA
2015
The aims of this work are to Investigate the variability in water relation traits among wild Brassica relatives adapted to arid and saline environments and to Identify specific differences in physiological traits that may be used to improve cultivated relatives widely used in our diet, such as broccoli, cabbage and kale.
The conservation of the Italian Crop Wild Relatives in the RIBES seed-banks: first data to establish national inventories and conservation priorities.
2016
The authors present the updated results of such census in the Italian Seed Bank Network for native species conservation (RIBES) with an analysis of the contribution to the conservation of the Italian FAO priority CWR. Finally, a national priority list for conservation of CWRs was drawn up and proposed here.
The conservation of the endemic Crop Wild Relatives in the RIBES seed-banks: towards a national priority list for the Italian CWRs
2016
Data of 620 crop wild relatives of species of food and fodder interest listed in the Annex I of the FAO Treaty (FAO, 2001) were collected within the census carried out by ISPRA, the Italian National Institute for Environmental Protection and Research, in 2014-2015 in order to quantify the extent of CWR representation in the Italian ex situ collections. According to such census, the RIBES network preserve 37% of the Italian CWRs listed in the FAO Treaty: in 14 out of 16 seed-banks are preserved 6,029 accessions of 229 CWR taxa, belonging to 11 families and 57 genera.
Future coastal hazard scenarios. A case study in NE Sicily (Italy)
2012
The coastal dynamics is the result of several causes that contribute to change the balance of beach deposits over time. The beach system is not always able to maintain coastal balance: the factors contributing to this phenomenon are to be found in both natural and anthropogenic spheres. In this context we present the analysis of marine geology and coastal geomorphological data of a sector between Rocca di Caprileone and Tindari (north-eastern Sicily) with the aim to: i) determine their onland-offshore area relationships, ii) analyze which natural features may contribute to coastal retreat, iii) present coastal hazard scenarios. Until fifty years ago the natural balance of this coastal area …
STUDIO DI UN AMMORTIZZATORE ELETTROMAGNETICO A RECUPERO DI ENERGIA
2013
Questo lavoro ha come obiettivo principale lo studio teorico e con supporto di software F.E.M. di un dispositivo che consenta recupero energetico da una sospensione automobilistica. In sostituzione allo smorzatore viscoso, che dissipa l’energia cinetica del veicolo a seguito dell’attraversamento di strade sconnesse o ostacoli più marcati, si è usato uno smorzatore elettromagnetico che svolga le funzioni dello smorzatore viscoso consentendo un recupero di energia elettrica. Lo smorzatore elettromagnetico è di tipo a magneti permanenti e il suo funzionamento si basa sul fenomeno dell’induzione elettromagnetica. Il modello matematico descrive il funzionamento dello smorzatore, restituendo i va…
Giudizio di proporzionalità e licenziamento nel lavoro pubblico dopo la riforma “Madia”
2020
Il saggio analizza la disciplina del licenziamento disciplinare e il relativo regime sanzionatorio nel lavoro pubblico con riguardo agli spazi di discrezionalità del giudice.
Commento agli artt. 18 ter, 26, 27, 29 della Legge di Ordinamento penitenziario
2019
Il commento dottrinario e giurisprudenziale delle disposizioni relative alle limitazioni della corrispondenza dei detenuti, alla tutela del diritto alla religione, alle attività culturali, ricreative e sportive, alle comunicazioni dello stato di detenzione, dei trasferimenti, delle malattie e dei decessi, è condotto criticamente. Vengono evidenziati i punti di approdo della giurisprudenza interna ed europea, si sottolinea il cammino di riforma che dagli Stati generali dell'esecuzione penale ha condotto sino alla recente emanazione dei d.lgs. n. 121, 123 e 124 del 2018. Infine si mettono in evidenza le permanenti discrasie rispetto ai principi costituzionali in materia di pena.
Pseudo-relatives and their left-periphery
2016
In this article I propose a new analysis of Pseudo-Relative clauses ('PRs') within the Cartographic model (Rizzi 1997 a.o.). Heretofore, the apparently contradictory behaviour of PRs in the syntactic tests used to determine their structure has been very problematic. Based on new data from Italian, I show that PRs are Small Clauses with a ForceP projection. Moreover, I explain the inconsistent results of the syntactic tests by claiming that PRs can be embedded in different syntactic environments. More specifically, they can be inserted as 'bare' Small Clauses into the matrix clause or be part of a bigger structure: i.e., a Complex-DP, a locative adjunction or a 'Larsonian' structure.
La costruzione 'con + DP + pseudorelativa': proposta per una duplice interpretazione
2015
This chapter deals with the so-called "absolute construction", an adverbial prepositional phrase headed by the preposition 'con' ('with') followed by a noun and a pseudo-relative clause (e.g. "Con Maria che piange, non possiamo uscire"). The main aim of the chapter is to show that Pseudo-relative clauses can have three different structures, and that two different types are used in the absolute construction, depending on the degree of syntactic integration of the prepositional phrase in the main clause. Fronted 'con'-clauses select a pseudo-relative clause with clausal status (CP), while sentence-final 'con'-clauses, which are more integrated, select a pseudo-relative clause with nominal sta…
The role of visiting friends and relatives (VFRS) in imported malaria
2015
With the integration of immigrants in their host countries, a new, special group of travellers - Visiting Friends and Relatives (VFRs) - has emerged over time. The term VFRs refers in particular to immigrants who move to high-income countries from countries where socio-economic status is low, and regularly return to their country of origin, sometimes for fairly long periods of time, to visit their friends and relatives or, where women are concerned, also to give birth and spend the post-partum period with their family. Precisely because they are “special tourists”, VFRs are considered to be at higher risk than other regular travellers of contracting diseases like tuberculosis, HIV and malar…
