Japānas krūmcidonijas Chaenomeles japonica šūnu suspensijas kultūras raksturošana pielietošanai biotehnoloģijā
2021
Darba mērķis bija raksturot Japānas krūmcidonijas Chaenomeles japonica suspensiju kultūru un izvērtēt tās pielietojumu biotehnoloģijā. Darbā no C. japonica kallusu kultūrām iegūtas suspensiju kultūras, veikta šūnu vizualizācija ar fluorescences mikroskopijas metodēm. Konstruēta augšanas līkne, no kuras ievākti paraugi antiradikālās aktivitātes, kopējo fenolu un antocianīnu satura noteikšanai. Lielāko fenolu savienojumu koncentrāciju un augstāko antiradikālo un antimikrobiālo aktivitāti uzrādīja stacionārās fāzes paraugi. Lielāko antocianīnu saturu uzrādīja astotās dienas paraugs. Šūnas suspensijās agregātos bija lielākoties dediferencējušās.
1-METHYLCYCLOPROPENE DELAYS RIPENING AND IMPROVES POSTHARVEST QUALITY OF WHITE FLESH LOQUAT
2015
The ethylene inhibitor 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) delayed ripening and improved postharvest fruit quality of loquat (Eriobotrya japonica Lindl.). 1-MCP was used on the white flesh sub-acid loquat cultivars ‘Claudia’ and ‘BRT20’ to evaluate the possible effect on fruit ripening and to prevent negative effects of cold storage, like internal browning and flesh leatheriness. 1-MCP was applied at 2°C for 20 h and concentrations of 1 and 5 μl L-1. After 1-MCP treatment fruit were held at 2°C for 7, 14, and 21 days and then moved to 18°C for 5 days. Fruit flesh firmness, titratable acidity (TA), total soluble content (TSS), weight loss, internal browning and flesh leatheriness were evaluated at …
Response to long-term NaHCO3-derived alkalinity in model Lotus japonicus Ecotypes Gifu B-129 and Miyakojima MG-20: transcriptomic profiling and physi…
2014
The current knowledge regarding transcriptomic changes induced by alkalinity on plants is scarce and limited to studieswhere plants were subjected to the alkaline salt for periods not longer than 48 h, so there is no information availableregarding the regulation of genes involved in the generation of a new homeostatic cellular condition after long-termalkaline stress.Lotus japonicusis a model legume broadly used to study many important physiological processes includingbiotic interactions and biotic and abiotic stresses. In the present study, we characterized phenotipically the response toalkaline stress of the most widely usedL. japonicusecotypes, Gifu B-129 and MG-20, and analyzed global t…
The crevice of the picture: Behind-the-scenes look at the early cinematographic representations of the ainu people (1897-1918)
2014
El presente trabajo plantea un recorrido histórico por la representación del pueblo ainu en el cine de los orígenes. Hemos dividido el corpus en tres bloques: primero, la presencia ainu entre las primeras actualités de los Lumière rodadas en Japón. Segundo, en las actualités de la compañía Pathé y la referencia a un documental perdido de Torii Rūyzō. Tercero, en los travelogues realizados en Japón por los exploradores en los años 10 Frederick Starr y Benjamin Brodsky. Al comparar el análisis cinematográfico con la realidad social del pueblo ainu se pone de relieve cómo los documentales trataron de proyectar una etnicidad correspondiente a un tiempo anterior al momento en que fueron filmados…
Il kimono di Odette. Riflessi del japonisme nella musica europea del primo Novecento
2019
Il testo delinea il quadro degli influssi del japonisme nell'ambito della musica francese e italiana dei primi anni del XX secolo, con particolare riferimento a Claude Debussy ("La mer"), Pietro Mascagni ("Iris") e Giacomo Puccini (Madama Butterfly"). Particolare attenzione è infine riservata alle "Trois Poésies de la Lyrique Japonaise" per voce e piccolo ensemble di Igor Stravinsky (1912).
Ecological and agronomic importance of the plant genus Lotus. Its application in grassland sustainability and the amelioration of constrained and con…
2010
The genus Lotus comprises around 100 annual and perennial species with worldwide distribution. The relevance of Lotus japonicus as a model plant has been recently demonstrated in numerous studies. In addition, some of the Lotus species show a great potential for adaptation to a number of abiotic stresses. Therefore, they are relevant components of grassland ecosystems in environmentally constrained areas of several South American countries and Australia, where they are used for livestock production. Also, the fact that the roots of these species form rhizobial and mycorrhizal associations makes the annual L. japonicus a suitable model plant for legumes, particularly in studies directed to r…
Female preference and adverse developmental effects of glyphosate-based herbicides on ecologically relevant traits in Japanese quail
2019
Controversial glyphosate-based herbicides (GBHs) are the most frequently used herbicides globally. An increasing number of studies have identified GBH residues in soil, water and even human food that may expose non-target organism including wildlife, livestock, and humans to health risks. After a heated debate, European Union allowed the use of GBHs to continue until 2022, after which their risks will be re-evaluated. Thus, decision makers urgently need scientific evidence on GBH residues and their possible effects on ecosystems. An important, yet neglected, aspect is to assess whether animals show preference or avoidance for GBH contaminated food, as it can influence the likelihood of adve…
La valeur des compétences dépasse t'elle la valeur des diplômes ?: les enseignements de trois enquêtes internationales sur l'insertion des diplômés d…
2012
Cette communication est une contribution aux débats concernant la valeur des diplômes et la situation de déclassement sur le marché du travail. L'originalité est de comparer les compétences acquises et requises dans l'emploi à partir d'une auto-évaluation réalisée par les jeunes diplômés de l'enseignement supérieur dans neuf pays d'Europe, au Japon et au Canada.
Comparaison internationale : à la recherche de jeunes diplômés de l'enseignement supérieur compétents en informatique
2003
By 1990, tow-thirds of all the jobs available for graduates with higher educational qualifications required advanced computer skills. However, only 30% of these graduates felt that they mastered these skills sufficiently well. Many of them have had to complete their initial vocational training by taking continuing training courses. In addition, mastering computer skills usually means earning higher wages. These results were based on a survey carried out on 35000 people who had graduated in disciplines of all kinds in eleven European countries and Japan.
Validation of a mechanistic model for predicting fruit scab infection on different loquat cultivars
2017
[EN] Scab, caused by Fusicladium eriobotryae, is the main disease affecting loquat (Eriobotrya japonica) in the Mediterranean basin. A mechanistic epidemiological model developed in Spain to predict infection of loquat fruit by conidia was assessed in the main loquat cultivated area of Italy (Sicily). A 3-year study (2014-2016) was carried out in an experimental orchard on three loquat cultivars: Algerie, Peluche and San Filipparo. For each cultivar, output of the model was compared with observed scab development on fruits. The scab epidemics observed were different in different years and cultivars, representing a suitable data set for model validation. The model correctly predicted loquat …
