Transcriptome and metabolome analysis of citrus fruit to elucidate puffing disorder.
2014
a b s t r a c t A systems-level analysis reveals details of molecular mechanisms underlying puffing disorder in Citrus fruit. Flavedo, albedo and juice sac tissues of normal fruits and fruits displaying symptoms of puffing disorder were studied using metabolomics at three developmental stages. Microarrays were used to compare normal and puffed fruits for each of the three tissues. A protein-protein interaction network inferred from previous work on Arabidopsis identified hub proteins whose transcripts show significant changes in expression. Glycolysis, the backbone of primary metabolism, appeared to be severely affected by the disorder, based on both transcriptomic and metabolomic results. …
Rigidity of quasisymmetric mappings on self-affine carpets
2016
We show that the class of quasisymmetric maps between horizontal self-affine carpets is rigid. Such maps can only exist when the dimensions of the carpets coincide, and in this case, the quasisymmetric maps are quasi-Lipschitz. We also show that horizontal self-affine carpets are minimal for the conformal Assouad dimension.
Managers’ and consumers’ representations of the closeness to a store : a contribution to retailer strategy
2013
Getting close to the consumer is one major concern in retailing. This research tries to understand the rehabilitation of small food stores in the French retailing context and explores the notion of closeness in all in its dimensions from a retailer as well as a consumer perspective. The research involves data collection from both retail companies and consumers. The qualitative and quantitative analysis show that creating closeness with the customer can be defined as the management of the spatial, temporal, functional and social distance that links a store to its customers. Seven dimensions can be identified: the access closeness, the functional closeness, the process closeness, the relation…
A Group-theoretical Finiteness Theorem
2008
We start with the universal covering space $${\*M^n}$$ of a closed n-manifold and with a tree of fundamental domains which zips it $${T\longrightarrow\*M^n}$$ . Our result is that, between T and $${\* M^n}$$ , is an intermediary object, $${T\stackrel{p} {\longrightarrow} G \stackrel{F}{\longrightarrow} \*M^n}$$ , obtained by zipping, such that each fiber of p is finite and $${T\stackrel{p}{\longrightarrow}G\stackrel{F}{\longrightarrow} \*M^n}$$ admits a section.
Time in Associative Learning: A Review on Temporal Maps
2021
Ability to recall the timing of events is a crucial aspect of associative learning. Yet, traditional theories of associative learning have often overlooked the role of time in learning association and shaping the behavioral outcome. They address temporal learning as an independent and parallel process. Temporal Coding Hypothesis is an attempt to bringing together the associative and non-associative aspects of learning. This account proposes temporal maps, a representation that encodes several aspects of a learned association, but attach considerable importance to the temporal aspect. A temporal map helps an agent to make inferences about missing information by applying an integration mechan…
MIPPIE: the mouse integrated protein–protein interaction reference
2020
Abstract Cells operate and react to environmental signals thanks to a complex network of protein–protein interactions (PPIs), the malfunction of which can severely disrupt cellular homeostasis. As a result, mapping and analyzing protein networks are key to advancing our understanding of biological processes and diseases. An invaluable part of these endeavors has been the house mouse (Mus musculus), the mammalian model organism par excellence, which has provided insights into human biology and disorders. The importance of investigating PPI networks in the context of mouse prompted us to develop the Mouse Integrated Protein–Protein Interaction rEference (MIPPIE). MIPPIE inherits a robust infr…
Preliminary results of the 2017 season in the Amazonian earthen structures known as geoglyphs.
2018
O trabalho realizado pela equipe de pesquisa multidisciplinar, liderada pela Universitat de Valencia Estudi General (UVEG) e a Universidade Federal do Acre (UFAC), de detalhamento da topografia, em especial na RESEX Chico Mendes, criou progresso significativo no conhecimento das estruturas de terra construídas na paisagem amazônica, conhecidas popularmente como geoglifos, no que se refere a aplicação de topografia de alta precisão para algumas das estruturas, compreensão geral fenômeno e aplicação de uma nova estratégia de pesquisa, com o auxílio de ferramentas como o Google Earth, Google Maps, GPX, OpenStreetMap e Lidar. Ainda há muito trabalho de campo a ser feito na Amazônia Ocidental, n…
University teaching and ICT. Materials online for training Cmap Tools
2013
En estas páginas presentamos una serie de materiales creados en un proyecto de elaboración de material de formación del profesorado universitario convocado por el Servicio de Formación Permanente de la Universitat de València. El objetivo fundamental del proyecto ha sido la creación de materiales en línea para aprender el funcionamiento del software libre Cmap Tools, elaborado por el Florida Institute for Human & Machine Cognition (IHMC). Los materiales de formación, desarrollados en la primera parte del proyecto, han consistido básicamente en la creación de vídeo tutoriales que muestran el procedimiento de descarga, instalación y las distintas utilidades del software y su aplicación a la d…
Current density maps, magnetizability, and nuclear magnetic shielding tensors of bis-heteropentalenes. III. Thieno-thiophene isomers
2005
Near Hartree–Fock values of the magnetic susceptibility and nuclear magnetic shielding of bis-heteropentalenes consisting of two thiophene units ([2,3-b], [3,2-b], [3,4-b], and [3,4-c] isomers) have been estimated via computational schemes relying on continuous transformation of the origin of the current density within the coupled Hartree–Fock approximation and extended gaugeless Gaussian basis sets. The results are compared with those obtained via London gauge-including orbitals. Maps of streamlines and the modulus of the ring current density induced by a magnetic field normal to the molecular plane are reported for the three isomers of higher symmetry, showing that the intense diamagnetic…
Experiencia sobre la utilización de un mix de metodologías docentes en la educación universitaria de la contabilidad
2012
En este trabajo se analiza la introducción de nuevas metodologías docentes a título experimental en un curso de contabilidad financiera. Las nuevas técnicas empleadas en clase han sido de varios tipos: mapas conceptuales, crucigramas, técnica del "puzzle" o aprendizaje cooperativo y test on-line, entre otras. Concretamente, se analiza la mejora en el rendimiento de los estudiantes mediante la comparación con resultados de otros años. Así mismo, se estudia el grado de satisfacción de los estudiantes con las nuevas herramientas docentes empleadas. Se analiza si mejora el nivel de motivación por una mayor comprensión de los contenidos, por un mayor número de horas de estudio a lo largo del per…
