Severe beak deformity in Melopsittacus undulatus caused by Knemidocoptes pilae
2014
An outbreak of knemidocoptic mange caused by Knemidocoptes pilae is described in caged Australian budgerigars (Melopsittacus undulatus) in a public park in L´Eliana (Valencia, Spain). Five individuals (5 out of 70) displayed severe malformation of the beak, with the rhamphotheca, rhinotheca, and gnathotheca affected and a slight lateral deviation of the jawbone, which did not, however, impede feeding or grooming.
Pigmaliòn en Sicilia
2010
By the end of 18th century three performances of “Pygmalion” by Jean-Jacques Rousseau are attested in Sicily, in Palermo (1777, 1797) and in Catania (1791), but every of them gives problems for their confirmation in coeval documents or for some other peculiarity. The most interesting is certainly the Catania's one attested by the libretto printed for the circumstance. There “Pygmalion” was performed in the original form of melodrama, but translated in Italian. The composer indicated on the libretto is Ch. W. Gluck but we can suppose that Gluck's work utilised in Catania, without informing the author, had been written for different purpose and intention. Somebody perhaps organised that perfo…
Grafting Eggplant Onto Underutilized Solanum Species and Biostimulatory Action of Azospirillum brasilense Modulate Growth, Yield, NUE and Nutritional…
2022
The grafting of vegetable crops is considered a valuable mean for ensuring the yield and quality under different cultivation conditions. Simultaneously, there are increasing research efforts in exploiting underutilised plants as potential rootstocks for vegetables to increase the sustainability of horticultural systems. In accordance with the European Green Deal, the application of biostimulants is a fashionable and ecological agronomic practice to enhance the production and quality of vegetables. Thus, the current research appraised the synergistic effect of grafting eggplant onto various allied potential rootstocks (Solanum torvum, S. aethiopicum and S. macrocarpon) and of applying a plan…
El universo melodramático de Tennessee Williams y de Luchino Visconti : Senso, un encuentro fílmico
2017
El melodrama es uno de los géneros más cultivados por el dramaturgo norteamericano Tennessee Williams y el cineasta italiano Luchino Visconti. El escritor acababa de tener un rotundo éxito en Broadway con Un tranvía llamado deseo (1947) cuando se trasladó a Italia, donde el director había llevado a escena su primera gran obra, El zoo de cristal. La tendencia por crear unos personajes de profunda naturaleza dramática, incidir en el conflicto emocional y social, y exhibir un notable sentido estético, indica el paralelismo existente entre ambos. Así se pone de relieve en Senso (1954), una película marcada por la dicotomía entre el deber y el placer, el poder de la pasión y la crisis de la aris…
MATHEMATICS AS A QUASI-EMPIRICAL SCIENCE
2006
The present paper aims at showing that there are times when set theoretical knowledge increases in a non-cumulative way. In other words, what we call ‘set theory’ is not one theory which grows by simple addition of a theorem after the other, but a finite sequence of theories T1, ..., T n in which Ti+1, for 1 ≤ i < n, supersedes T i . This thesis has a great philosophical significance because it implies that there is a sense in which mathematical theories, like the theories belonging to the empirical sciences, are fallible and that, consequently, mathematical knowledge has a quasi-empirical nature. The way I have chosen to provide evidence in favour of the correctness of the main thesis of t…
Effetti della tecnologia Modified Atmosphere Packaging a base di argon sulla qualità degli arilli di melograno (Punica granatum L. cv. Wonderful)
2021
La coltivazione del melograno è aumentata globalmente nell’ultimo decennio grazie ai rinomati benefici del frutto per la salute. Il consumo del melograno come frutto fresco, però, incontra delle resistenze da parte dei consumatori a causa della scomodità di estrazione degli arilli dal frutto e della presenza di metaboliti fenolici che possono macchiare le mani. Oggi si sta diffondendo sempre più il consumo di arilli pronti al consumo, pratici e veloci in confezionamento protettivo per cui occorre mantenere inalterate le caratteristiche qualitative del frutto fresco. Il confezionamento in atmosfera modificata (MAP) è stato utilizzato negli ultimi anni per mantenere la qualità della frutta di…
La coltivazione del melograno in Sicilia: qualità dei frutti e adattamento di due cultivar
2019
Nel presente lavoro sono stati monitorati gli stadi fenologici di due varietà di melograno durante una stagione produttiva al fine di studiarne l’evoluzione e l’adattamento utilizzando la scala BCH. I risultati hanno permesso di valutare l’andamento vegeto-produttivo di queste varietà di melograno in clima mediterraneo.
Citrus History, Taxonomy, Breeding, and Fruit Quality
2019
In May, every year since 1857, in the great park of Sans-Souci in Potsdam just outside Berlin—a park begun in 1745 by Emperor Frederick II of Hohenzollern and expanded a century later by Frederick William IV—the doors of the great Orangerie open in and a Renaissance-style garden called Sizilianischer Garten is set up. On horse-drawn carriages,large olive and citrus trees are brought outdoors, and are then raised in masters. For the young European who, in the second half of the 18th century and in the first decades of the following, traveled to Italy to see and study Renaissance culture and the remains of Greek civilization, the citrus species and fruits and groves of southern Italy became t…
