Genomic structural diversity in local goats: Analysis of copy-number variations

2020

Copy-number variations (CNVs) are one of the widely dispersed forms of structural variations in mammalian genomes, and are present as deletions, insertions, or duplications. Only few studies have been conducted in goats on CNVs derived from SNP array data, and many local breeds still remain uncharacterized, e.g., the Sicilian goat dairy breeds. In this study, CNV detection was performed, starting from the genotypic data of 120 individuals, belonging to four local breeds (Argentata dell&rsquo

Asymmetries in path encoding in Sicilian: A diachronic overview

2017

This talk aims at describing the encoding of path within the system of spatial relations in Sicilian, an Italo-Romance language spoken in Sicily and its satellite islands. In general terms, spatial relations in Sicilian remain largely unexplored in the light of the current linguistic theories. As a consequence, the first point addressed in the proposed description is the comparison of Sicilian data with the cross-linguistic scenario. It is generally argued in the relevant literature that the encoding of path appears to be less autonomous compared to source, goal, and location at the cross-linguistic level, and its encoding is frequently based on location (see Stolz 1992). In Sicilian, the s…

Genetic structure of wildcat (Felis silvestris) populations in Italy

2013

Severe climatic changes during the Pleistocene shaped the distributions of temperate-adapted species. These species survived glaciations in classical southern refuges with more temperate climates, as well as in western and eastern peripheral Alpine temperate areas. We hypothesized that the European wildcat (Felis silvestris silvestris) populations currently distributed in Italy differentiated in, and expanded from two distinct glacial refuges, located in the southern Apennines and at the periphery of the eastern Alps. This hypothesis was tested by genotyping 235 presumed European wildcats using a panel of 35 domestic cat-derived microsatellites. To provide support and controls for the analy…

New High Voltage Interconnections with Islands in the Mediterranean Sea: Malta and Sicily. Analysis of the Effects on Renewable Energy Sources Integr…

2018

The present paper shows the benefits coming from the operation of the recent electrical high voltage (HV) interconnections between Sicily, Malta and mainland Italy. These new interconnections allow zonal prices of electricity considerably lower than in the past, ensuring greater flexibility to the system and a better integration of Renewable Energy Sources (RES). After briefly illustrating the two high-voltage electrical systems (Sicily and Malta), and having provided a description of the interconnection cable with Malta and its protection devices, the authors hypothesized two modes of operation (Sicily-Malta system islanded or interconnected to the rest of Europe). For the first case (isla…

L'Abolizione della feudalità e il culto degli onori nella Sicilia del 1812

2015

La Costituzione del 1812 trasformò i feudi in allodi ed eliminò le giurisdizioni feudali. L’obiettivo, già auspicato da Caracciolo e Caramanico, fu raggiunto solamente in un momento particolare della storia siciliana e grazie all’intervento del plenipotenziario inglese Sir Bentinck l’istituto giuridico fu abolito. Tuttavia la rappresentazione della nobiltà come categoria non scomparve e rimase saldamente presente nell’immaginario collettivo. Il titolo nobiliare e l’onore ad esso collegato, costituirono l’elemento sociologico-strutturale sul quale si assestò la politica di difesa cetuale del baronaggio. Alcuni esempi di come si costruisce l’onore di un casato, completano questo primo approcc…

Minestre siciliane e un osservato speciale: la minestra di tenerumi

2020

Questo capitolo prende in esame una famiglia di pietanze che ha ampia diffusione in Italia e in Sicilia, quella delle minestre. Il termine minestra, di difficilissima traduzione, raccoglie piatti talvolta molto diversi tra loro fino ad accomunare, nei ricettari meno recenti, tutti i primi piatti italiani. Nel capitolo sarà approfondito il problema della vaghezza semantica del termine e prenderemo in esame una delle minestre siciliane più note: la "minestra di tenerumi", caratterizzata dalla presenza di un ingrediente autoctona, la cucuzza lunga con le sue foglie. La presenza di quest'ingrediente contribuisce a stabilizzare l'identità del piatto, da un lato, e a sancirne la tipicità e, dunqu…
