116 años de la Revista Chilena de Historia Natural: Breve relato de dos antes y un después
Provedor de dados: 97
Autores: CAMUS,PATRICIO A.
El año 2013 marcará el cierre de una etapa importante para la Revista Chilena de Historia Natural (RCHN), ya que a partir de
2014 comenzará a publicarse a través de la plataforma SpringerOpen, incluyendo algunos cambios relevantes en su diseño,
manejo editorial, e idioma, entre otros. Por lo tanto en este artículo sintetizo algunos aspectos clave en la evolución de RCHN
desde su fundación a fines del siglo 19, a través de dos períodos históricos: (a) 1897-1963, donde destaca la figura de su creador
Carlos E. Porter y el rol de la Sociedad Chilena de Historia Natural, y (b) 1983-2013, su etapa reciente ligada a la Sociedad de
Biología de Chile. Adicionalmente presento un breve análisis de la situación y el impacto de RCHN en su etapa moderna,

13C Photoassimilate partitioning in sweet cherry (Prunus avium) during early spring
Provedor de dados: 118
Autores: Ayala,Marlene; Lang,Gregory A.
Stored reserves are critical for the early spring growth of reproductive and vegetative sinks in sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.). To
study the distribution of carbon storage reserves on new, highly productive hybrid rootstocks in sweet cherry, an experiment was
established using 5-yr-old cv. 'Regina' on the semi-vigorous rootstock 'Gisela®6' ('GI®6'). Using whole-canopy enclosure
chambers, five trees were pulse-labeled three times with high levels of 13CO2 during the fall. At leaf drop, leaves, buds, wood,
bark and roots were sampled for gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis. The storage organs with the highest
percentages of excess 13C atoms were the roots and the older wood in the trunks, branches and buds. During the spring, newly...

1,3-Propanediol production from crude glycerol by Clostridium butyricum DSP1 in repeated batch
Provedor de dados: 69
Autores: Szymanowska-Powalowska,Daria.
Background The production of biofuels from renewable energy sources is one of the most important issues in industrial
biotechnology today. The process is known to generate various by-products, for example crude glycerol, which is obtained in the
making of biodiesel from rapeseed oil. Crude glycerol may be utilized in many ways, including microbial conversion to 1,3-
propanediol (1,3-PD), a raw material for the synthesis of polyesters and polyurethanes. Results The paper presents results of a
study on the synthesis of 1,3-propanediol from crude glycerol by a repeated batch method with the use of Clostridium butyricum
DSP1. Three cycles of fermentation medium replacement were carried out. The final concentration of 1,3-PD was 62 g/L and the
maximum...

16S rRNA gene-based molecular analysis of mat-forming and accompanying bacteria covering
organically-enriched marine sediments underlying a salmon farm in Southern Chile (Calbuco Island)
Provedor de dados: 72
Autores: Aranda,Carlos; Paredes,Javier; Valenzuela,Cristian; Lam,Phyllis; Guillou,Laure.
The mat forming bacteria covering organic matter-enriched and anoxic marine sediments underlying a salmon farm in Southern
Chile, were examined using 16S rRNA gene phylogenies. This mat was absent in the sea bed outside the direct influence of the
farm (360 m outside fish cages). Based on nearly complete 16S rRNA gene sequences (-1500 bp), mat-forming filamentous cells
were settled as the sulphur-oxidizing and putatively dissimilative nitrate-reducing Beggiatoa spp., being closely related (up to 97%
sequence identity) to Beggiatoa spp. identified in eutrophic shallow sediments in northern Europe (Danish Limfjorden and
German Dangast inlets). Their phylogenetic affiliation was consistent with their morphology as vacuolated and sulphur-containing
cells...

1a,25(OH)2D3 induces capacitative calcium entry involving a trpc3 protein in skeletal muscle and
osteoblastic cells
Provedor de dados: 48
Autores: SANTILLÁN,G; KATZ,S; BUITRAGO,C; BOLAND,R.
This work describes the involvement of TRPC proteins in capacitative calcium entry (CCE) induced by 1a,25-dihydroxy-vitamin-
D3 [1a,25(OH)2D3] in chick skeletal muscle and in rat osteoblast-like cells (ROS 17/2.8) and the role of the vitamin D receptor
(VDR) in this non-genomic rapid response mediated by the hormone. We propose that an endogenous TRPC3 protein mediates
1a,25(OH)2D3 modulation of CCE in these cells, which seems to implicate VDR-TRPC3 association and the participation of an
INAD-like scaffold protein.

CASTRO,RODRIGO.
We present a 100-year reconstruction of siliceous export production from sediments of the Puyuhuapi Channel (44° S, 70° W) in
the Chilean fjords. We use accumulation rates and concentrations of diatoms and silicoflagellates, organic carbon (Corg) and
biogenic opal (SiOPAL) as proxies of export production, and fluctuations in the contribution of freshwater diatoms as proxies of
rainfall in the hinterland and river runoff. Box core sediments collected at two sites within the Puyuhuapi Channel were analyzed:
Station 35 (at the head of the fjord; 56 m water depth) and Station 40 (in the middle of the Channel; 270 m water depth). Surface
sedimentation rates were 0.75 cm yr-1 at Station 35 and 0.25 cm yr-1 at Station 40. SiOPAL content averaged ~ 4 % at both...

Provedor de dados: 69
Autores: Qi,Zhitao; Shi,Rongwei; Li,Suyang; Zang,Xiayan; Wang,Zisheng.
Background: Interleukin-22 (IL-22) plays an important role in the regulation of immune responses. However, little is known about
its function or structure in fish. Results: The IL-22 gene was first cloned from So-iny mullet (Liza haematocheila), one of
commercially important fish species in China. Then, 3-D structure model of the mullet IL-22 was constructed by comparative
modeling method using human IL-22 (1M4R) as template, and a 5 ns molecular dynamics (MD) was studied. The open reading
frame (ORF) of mullet IL-22 cDNA was 555 bp, encoding 184 amino acids. The mullet IL-22 shared higher identities with the
other fish IL-22 homologs and possessed a conserved IL-10 signature motif at its C-terminal. The mullet IL-22 model possessed
six conserved helix...

50 years of amino acid hydrophobicity scales: revisiting the capacity for peptide classification
Provedor de dados: 48
Autores: Simm,Stefan; Einloft,Jens; Mirus,Oliver; Schleiff,Enrico.
BACKGROUND: Physicochemical properties are frequently analyzed to characterize protein-sequences of known and unknown
function. Especially the hydrophobicity of amino acids is often used for structural prediction or for the detection of membrane
associated or embedded β-sheets and α-helices. For this purpose many scales classifying amino acids
according to their physicochemical properties have been defined over the past decades. In parallel, several hydrophobicity
parameters have been defined for calculation of peptide properties. We analyzed the performance of separating sequence pools
using 98 hydrophobicity scales and five different hydrophobicity parameters, namely the overall hydrophobicity, the hydrophobic
moment for detection of...

the Chilean fruit leaf roller Proeulia auraria (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae). Cien. Inv. Agr. 41(2):187-196. The Chilean fruit leaf roller
Proeulia auraria is a pest of economically important fruit species. Two compounds attractive to males have been identified as (E)-
11-tetradecenyl acetate (E11-14:OAc) and (E)-11-tetradecenol (E11-14:OH) and are currently being used in Chile to monitor this
species. Preliminary experiments carried out by our group suggested that the 2-compound mixture might not be optimal for the
attraction of males, which prompted us to reinvestigate the sex pheromone of P. auraria in the present study. The pheromone...

A 66-kDa protein of bovine hypophyseal Pars tuberalis induces luteinizing hormone release from rat
Pars distalis
Provedor de dados: 47
Autores: Lafarque,Martha; Oliveros,Liliana.
In this study, evidence for a factor secreted by bovine hypophyseal pars tuberalis that stimulates luteinizing hormone (LH) release
from rat pars distalis cells is shown. The secretion products of bovine pars tuberalis cells into the culture medium were assayed on
dispersed rat pars distalis cells in 30 min incubations and superfusion experiments. The culture medium from pars tuberalis total
cell populations, added at a dose of 6 μg per tube, induced the greater LH release from pars distalis cells, without effect
on follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) release. After pars tuberalis cells separation on a discontinuos Percoll gradient, only the
culture medium of cells from 50 and 60% strength Percoll were able to release LH from rat pars distalis...

Autores: Lee,Youngsub; Park,Sairom; Kim,Hun; Lee,Seung Kyu; Kim,Jin Woo; Lee,Hak Kyo; Jeong,Dong Kee; Lee,Sung Jin.
Background: The melanocortin-4 receptor gene (MC4R) plays an important role in regulating food intake and body weight in
mammals. In the present study, we identified the MC4R gene in native Korean brown, brindle, and black cattle by polymerase
chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP), and investigated its association with economic traits. A
total of 413 cattle from the three breeds were tested for backfat thickness, carcass weight, longissimus muscle area, and marbling
score, and statistical data were analyzed using the SAS program. Results: The C allele had the highest frequency in brown and
brindle cattle, and the G allele frequency was highest in black cattle. The C1069G SNP was significantly (p < 0.05) associated

A Case of Anomalous Horizontal Fissure and Hypoplastic Middle Lobe of the Right Lung
Provedor de dados: 77
Autores: Okamoto,Keishi; Wakebe,Tetsuaki; Saiki,Kazunobu; Manabe,Yoshitaka; Tsurumoto,Toshiyuki.
During dissection practice for medical students at Nagasaki University, a horizontal fissure and hypoplastic middle lobe were
encountered in the right lung of an 81-year-old Japanese female. In a normal right lung, the horizontal fissure is situated anterior
to the oblique fissure. On the contrary, in the present case, the horizontal fissure was situated posterior to the oblique fissure. We
identified a small, additional lobe on the medial surface of this lung. It was situated in the medial part of the oblique fissure, and
was determined to be a small hypoplastic middle lobe. As a result of the hypoplasia of the middle lobe, the original horizontal
fissure may have disappeared from the anterior surface. The horizontal fissure, in this case, may be a...

The cytogenetic studies have special importance in the zoological research because by means of karyotype analysis they
contribute to the identifi cation of different entities, facilitate the evaluation of the proximity or relationship degree among certain
species and fi nally they contribute with fundamental data to the phylogenetic assessment (Schmid et al., 1985; Zampieri et al.,
2004). The occurrence of polyploidy in different anuran families that appear as cryptic species highlights the importance of the
cytogenetic study at the population level (Valetti et al., 2009).

A Case of Unusual Anatomy: Maxillary Central Incisor with Two Root Canals
Provedor de dados: 77
Autores: Rodrigues,Evaldo Almeida; Silva,Sílvio José Albergaria da.
Success in root canal treatment is achieved after thorough cleaning and shaping followed by complete obturation of the canal
system. Therefore, endodontic therapy requires specific and complete knowledge of the internal and external dental anatomy, and
its variations in presentation. Such treatment may be performed in root canal systems that do not comply with the normal
anatomical features described in standard textbooks. The internal anatomy of the maxillary central incisor is well known and
usually presents one root canal system. This case report describes an endodontic retreatment of a maxillary central incisor with
two canal systems.

Most cells of the developing mammalian brain derive from the ventricular (VZ) and the subventricular (SVZ) zones. The VZ is
formed by the multipotent radial glia/neural stem cells (NSCs) while the SVZ harbors the rapidly proliferative neural precursor
cells (NPCs). Evidence from human and animal models indicates that the common history of hydrocephalus and brain
maldevelopment starts early in embryonic life with disruption of the VZ and SVZ. We propose that a "cell junction pathology"
involving adherent and gap junctions is a final common outcome of a wide range of gene mutations resulting in proteins
abnormally expressed by the VZ cells undergoing disruption. Disruption of the VZ during fetal development implies the loss of
NSCs whereas VZ disruption...

The Kaplan´s anastomosis represents the communication between the dorsal and superficial branch of the ulnar nerve distal to
ulnar canal. In the present study, a case about this nerve communication, found in a male adult cadaver, is reported. Information
about brachial plexus distal anastomosis is fundamental for interpretation of clinical and electrophysiological findings, in order to
establish the precise diagnosis of neurological lesions at this level. Its relations with flexor carpi ulnaris muscle's tendon and with
pisiform bone exposes it to iatrogenic lesions during surgery.

A Comparative Study of Variation of the Pterion of Human Skulls from 13th and 20th Century
Anatolia
Provedor de dados: 77
Autores: Ilknur,Ari; Mustafa,Kafa Ilker; Sinan,Bakirci.
The pterion is a commonly used anthropologic and neurosurgical landmark defined as the junction of the sphenoid, temporal,
parietal and frontal bones. It is commonly classified into four types based on sutural pattern: sphenoparietal, in which the sphenoid
and parietal bones are in direct contact; frontotemporal, in which the frontal and temporal bones are in direct contact; stellate, in
which all four bones come into contact at a point; and epipteric, in which a small sutural bone is found between the parietal bone
and the greater wing of the sphenoid bone. In the present study, 44 Anatolian skulls from two different eras, Byzantine (13th
century) and contemporary (20th century), were investigated for morphology and location of the pterion. Sphenoparietal...

A Comparison of Anatomical Measurements of the Infraorbital Foramen of Skulls of the Modern and
Late Byzantine Periods and the Golden Ratio
Provedor de dados: 77
Autores: Bakirci,S; Kafa,I. M; Coskun,I; Buyukuysal,M. C; Barut,C.
The aim of this study was to examine the morphometric characteristics of the infraorbital foramen of skulls of people living in
modern society and in the late Byzantine period, to ascertain the symmetry or asymmetry of the two halves of the skulls by
measuring the linear distance between various landmarks, to evaluate at the conformity between the infraorbital foramen and the
golden ratio by calculating the ratios between these linear distances, and to set out the differences or similarities between the
skulls of these different periods. It was found in the study that the morphometric characteristics of the infraorbital foramen in
skulls of the modern period were 47.05 % circular, 41.17 % oval and 11.76 % atypical (semilunar and triangular) on the right,...

A comparison of farmland value determinants in Chile between 1978-1998 and 1999-2008
Provedor de dados: 118
Autores: Donoso,Guillermo; Cancino,José; Olguín,Ricardo; Schonhaut,Daniela.
Research on the determinants that influence the price of farmland has found renewed interest in the past decade because
agricultural land values are an important source of information for tracing the distribution of benefits generated by agricultural
growth. This study's objective is to identify the determinants of the value of agricultural land in Chile for the periods 1978-1998
and 1999-2008 to analyze the evolution of the factors that determined the price of agricultural land between these two periods.
The explanatory power of the estimated hedonic land price model is significantly greater for the period 1978-1998 (R²= 67%).
The lower explanatory power of the model for the period 1999-2008 (R²= 29%) indicates that factors not accounted for in the

A Comparison of the Effect of Chlorhexidine, Tap Water and Normal Saline on Healing Wounds
Provedor de dados: 77
Autores: Salami,Ayodeji A; Imosemi,Innocent O; Owoeye,Olatunde O.
Many researchers have advocated in recent times that antiseptic use in healing wounds should be discouraged. Antiseptics have
been found to retard healing of wounds. Innocuous solutions like normal saline and tap water are being considered as better
alternatives to antiseptics. Chlorhexidine, a commonly used antiseptic, is known to be less toxic on granulation cells. We decided
to compare the effect of chlorhexidine, normal saline and tap water on healing wounds. Three groups of wistar rats had 2 by 2cm
full thickness wounds made on their right dorsolateral flanks. The wounds were dressed with either chlorhexidine, normal saline
or tap water. Wounds were examined at three-day intervals and measurements of area covered were taken on the first day of

Provedor de dados: 81
Autores: Lucherini,Mauro; Reppucci,Juan I.; Luengos Vidal,Estela.
Mountain vizcachas are large rodents that constitute the main prey of the High Andes meso-carnivores. We compared the line
transect pellet count, observation rate and photographic rate methods to estimate the relative abundance of Mountain vizcachas in
the High Andes ecosystems. Although a more formal validation based on the comparison with true abundances is desirable, our
results suggested that these simple and affordable indices are promising methods, especially if protocols and sampling efforts are
carefully standardized. We recommend the use of photographic rates, which are likely to provide the most reliable estimates,
especially where Mountain vizcachas are active at night.

Abstract: Cocoa, Theobroma cacao L. is one of the main tropical industrial crops. Cocoa has a very high level of interfering
substances, such as polysaccharides and phenolic compounds that could prevent the isolation of suitable protein. Efficient
methods of protein extraction are a priority to successfully apply proteomic analyses. We compared and evaluated two methods (A
and B) of tissue preparation for total protein extract by phenol/SDS extraction protocol. The difference in the application of the
two methods was that extensively washed dry powder of pod tissue were made in Method A, whereas that crude extract were

Variations in the branches of the abdominal aorta were determined during a routine abdominal region dissection of a 70-year-old
male cadaver. Left gastric artery arose as the first root from antero-lateral of aorta. Coeliacomesenteric trunk occurred as a thick
root. After 29.9mm, coeliacomesenteric trunk bifurcated as coeliac trunk and superior mesenteric artery. Coeliac trunk bifurcated
as splenic artery and common hepatic artery. These multiple variations which change the normal anatomic structure of the
abdominal aorta have to be kept in mind by surgeons, radiologists and anatomists.

A distinctive new cloud-forest rodent (Hystricognathi: Echimyidae) from the Manu Biosphere
Reserve, Peru
Provedor de dados: 81
Autores: Patterson,Bruce D.; Velazco,Paul M.
Recent surveys in Peru 's Manu National Park and Biosphere Reserve uncovered a new species of hystricognath rodent, a spiny rat
(Echimyidae) with dense, soft fur. Inhabiting Andean cloud-forests at 1900 m, the new rodent belongs to a radiation of "brush-
tailed tree rats" previously known only from the Amazon, Orinoco, and other lowland river drainages. Phylogenetic analysis of
morphology (cranial and dental characters) unambiguously allies the new species with species of Isothrix. While the inclusion of
the new taxon does not resolve the "star phylogeny" which underlies the echimyid radiation, it identifies the Andes as a possible
theatre for the evolution of some soft-haired members of the group. The new species is described and a revised diagnosis of the...

BACKGROUND: It has been proposed that the &#947;-aminobutyric acid (GABA) plays a key role in the regulation of food
intake and body weight by controlling the excitability, plasticity and the synchronization of neuronal activity in the frontal cortex
(FC). It has been also proposed that the high-fat diet (HFD) could disturb the metabolism of glutamate and consequently the
GABA levels, but the mechanism is not yet clearly understood. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of a
HFD on the GABA levels in the FC and hippocampus of rats RESULTS: The HFD significantly increased weight gain and blood
glucose levels, whereas decreased the GABA levels in the FC and hippocampus compared with standard diet-fed rats

Delimiting the spatial extension of a hybrid zone is essential to understand its historical origin and to identify the geographical
and/or environmental factors which delimit it. Rhinella atacamensis and R. arunco are two sister species which together inhabit
Chile between 25° and 38° S. Their distribution limits coincide at about 32° S, where recently it was reported that they hybridize
in a small watershed (Pupío creek). Although the genetic evidence suggests that these two species form a hybrid swarm, they are
not mixed homogeneously in the entire watershed, but rather are spatially segregated: R. arunco is found in the lower part of the
creek and R. atacamensis in the higher part. An extensive exploration north and south of 32° S revealed other...

Chickpea, a lesser-studied grain legume, is being investigated due to its taxonomic proximity with the model legume genome
Medicago truncatula and its ability to endure and grow in relatively low soil water contents making it a model legume crop for the
study of agronomic response to drought stress. Public databases currently contain very few sequences from chickpea associated
with expression in root tissues. However, root traits are likely to be one of the most important components of drought tolerance in
chickpea. Thus, we have generated a set of over 2800 chickpea expressed sequence tags (ESTs) from a library constructed after
subtractive suppressive hybridization (SSH) of root tissue from two closely related chickpea genotypes possessing different...

production losses due to cold storage of the fruits during shipping. Additionally, the low level of polymorphisms among peach
varieties is an important limitation in the search for new molecular markers that could be associated with economically important
traits. Therefore, a functional approach was employed to associate candidate genes with an informative marker in peach. The data
was obtained from the results of an in silico analysis of four different cold peach treatments. Thirty two candidate genes were
selected that were aligned against Arabidopsis thaliana genomic sequences to design intron-flanking EST-PCR markers. These...

A Morphological Study of the Dorsum Sellae in Human Skull
Provedor de dados: 77
Autores: Haider,Syed Javed; Rezigalla,Assad Ali; Abdalla,Asim Mohammed.
Anatomical variations in the shape and dimension of the dorsum sellae and posterior clinoid process are common. Most textbooks
describe its shape as a median rectangular plate, a square plate, or a transverse ledge on a slope behind the sella turcica
(hypophyseal fossa). This work aims to study the dorsum sellae of human skull. One hundred and twenty five dried adult human
skulls, irrespective of age, were used for the study. Detailed features of the dorsum sellae were noted and classified into five types:
crest like, thin plate, frail quadrilateral plate, heavy square plate, thick elongated plate. Fusion of the posterior and middle clinoid
processes in one (unilateral) and all the clinoid processes (anterior, middle, and posterior) in three skulls...

A molecular approach was used for selecting polyhydroxyalcanoate (PHA)-accumulating potential Gram-negative bacteria from
different genera by colony polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Three degenerate primers were designed for amplifying a fragment
from PHA synthase gene (phaC) (Class I), phaC1 and phaC2 (Class II) genes for detecting PHA-producing bacteria. Thirty-four
out of 55 bacterial strains from the old collection selected using Sudan black B staining were phaC+. PCR was used for directly
selecting 35 new collection bacterial strains; these strains were phaC+ and their ability to produce PHA was confirmed by Sudan
black B staining. Four specific primers were designed on genes of Class II PHA biosynthesis operon. These primers were used for

Segregating progeny from the tomato Second Cycle Hybrids (SCH) that were obtained from crossing RIL (Recombinant Inbred
Lines) allows the detection of new genetic combinations that could increase genetic variability in F2 populations. The objectives
of the present study were to evaluate eleven tomato quality traits in a segregating F2 population obtained from a SCH and, then, to
characterize the molecular diversity by six AFLP (Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism) primer combinations. Different
multivariate analyses were used to assess the degree of concordance among these two approaches to detect genetic variability.

Femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAI) is a clinical entity that has been recognized in recent years as a frequent cause of
pain and the early development of hip arthrosis. Subspine hip impingement is characterized by the prominent or abnormal
morphology of the anteroinferior iliac spine (AIIS), which contributes to the development of a clinical picture that is similar to
FAI. The aims of this study were to propose a new morphological classification of the AIIS, to determine the prevalence of the
different AIIS morphologies based on this classification and to correlate the presence of said morphologies with different gender

proteins on its capsid (phage display) is constructed. These phage particles are hybridized with a biotinylated target DNA fragment
which is immobilized on the surface of streptavidin paramagnetic particle (SA-PMP). The phage particles are released from the
target DNA fragment by a nuclease treatment and the recovered phages are used to the next round of hybridization. These
processes are repeated three times to amplify the target phages in the population. This simple method is faster, and more systemic

Brasil, levando-se em consideração as suas diretrizes, a dinâmica da luta política travada entre os atores sociais do meio rural e os
resultados globais atingidos. O ineditismo deste governo está relacionado ao fato deste ter sido sustentado e apoiado por uma
coalizão de partidos de esquerda e por um conjunto de movimentos sociais e entidades sindicais do campo, o que foi determinante
na apresentação de um programa antagônico às políticas neoliberais em vigor em âmbito nacional. Por essa razão este governo
comprometeu-se em adotar uma política fundiária própria, opondo-se ao programa de reforma agrária de mercado preconizado

A possible role of Drosophila CTCF in mitotic bookmarking and maintaining chromatin domains
during the cell cycle
Provedor de dados: 48
Autores: Shen,Wenlong; Wang,Dong; Ye,Bingyu; Shi,Minglei; Zhang,Yan; Zhao,Zhihu.
BACKGROUND: The CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) is a highly conserved insulator protein that plays various roles in many
cellular processes. CTCF is one of the main architecture proteins in higher eukaryotes, and in combination with other architecture
proteins and regulators, also shapes the three-dimensional organization of a genome. Experiments show CTCF partially remains
associated with chromatin during mitosis. However, the role of CTCF in the maintenance and propagation of genome architectures
throughout the cell cycle remains elusive. RESULTS: We performed a comprehensive bioinformatics analysis on public datasets
of Drosophila CTCF (dCTCF). We characterized dCTCF-binding sites according to their occupancy status during the cell cycle,
and identified...

A preliminary analysis of death cause, capture-related mortality, and survival of adult red deer in
northwestern Patagonia
Provedor de dados: 67
Autores: Flueck,Werner T; Smith-Flueck,Joanne M; Bonino,Never A.
The red deer (Cervus elaphus), among the world´s 14 most invasive exotic mammals, has recently arrived in Patagonia. Forty-
seven deer were captured, marked with radio collars, and monitored in order to determine survival rates and identify causes of
death. Net gunning from a helicopter allowed captures to be evenly distributed through the study area and in a timely manner. The
absence of capture related mortality in our study agrees with previously reported low rates for this method. Animals were
monitored for periods ranging from 5 to 2611 days. Ten animals provided censored values due to radio failures or being shot: they
survived on average 811 days (SE = 221) after capture. Ten animals experienced natural deaths with an average time alive after
capture...

A Pyranine based Procedure for Evaluation of the Total Antioxidant Potential (TRAP) of Polyphenols:
A Comparison with closely related Methodologies
Provedor de dados: 48
Autores: CAMPOS,ANA MARÍA; SOTOMAYOR,CARLOS PATRICIO; PINO,EDUARDO; LISSI,EDUARDO.
A novel procedure for the evaluation of total reactive antioxidant potentials (TRAP) is described. The method is based on the
measurement of the bleaching of pyranine by peroxyl radicals. The addition of the antioxidants produces a clear induction time
whose magnitude is directly related to the antioxidant concentration. A comparison of the values obtained with those reported
employing closely related methodologies shows that the results are significantly affected by the substrate employed to monitor the
steady state free radical concentration. Possible sources of this dependence are discussed

Provedor de dados: 97
Autores: MENDOZA,EDUARDO; FAY,JOHN; DIRZO,RODOLFO.
Habitat loss is a critical threat to tropical biodiversity and its quantification constitutes a central conservation issue. Typically,
assessments have been based on deforestation rates statistics. However, this overlooks the effects brought about by the spatial
reconfiguration of the remaining habitat: fragmentation. We present an analysis of fragmentation in a Neotropical site aimed at: (a)
devising a protocol for its quantification, (b) using such protocol to provide insights on the ecological consequences of
fragmentation, (c) exploring its applicability to address the hypothesis that forest size-inequality decreases with elevation, an
indicator of habitat accessibility. We applied the Gini coefficient (G) and the Lorenz curve to analyze fragment-size...

Background: Agave tequilana has a great economic importance in Mexico in order to produce alcoholic beverages and bioenergy.
However, in this species the structure and organization of the rDNAs in the genome are limited, and it represents an obstacle both
in their genetic research and improvement as well. rDNA copy number variations per eukaryotic genome have been considered as
a source of genetic rearrangements. In this study, the copy number of 18S and 5S rDNAs in the A. tequilana genome was
estimated, and an absolute quantitative qPCR assay and genome size was used. In addition, an association between the rDNAs
copy number and physical mapping was performed to confirm our results. Results: The analysis were successfully applied to

A radiographic method to estimate lung volume and its use in small mammals
Provedor de dados: 48
Autores: CANALS,MAURICIO; OLIVARES,RICARDO; ROSENMANN,Mario.
In this paper we develop a method to estimate lung volume using chest x-rays of small mammals. We applied this method to
assess the lung volume of several rodents. We showed that a good estimator of the lung volume is: V*L = 0.496 · V RX
&#8776; 1/2·V RX , where V RX is a measurement obtained from the x-ray that represents the volume of a rectangular box
containing the lungs and mediastinum organs. The proposed formula may be interpreted as the volume of an ellipsoid formed by
both lungs joined at their bases. When that relationship was used to estimate lung volume, values similar to those expected from
allometric relationship were found in four rodents. In two others, M. musculus and R. norvegicus, lung volume was similar to
reported data, although...

Here we present an optimized protocol to rapidly and efficiently purify high quality total RNA from peach fruits (Prunus persica).
Isolating high-quality RNA from fruit tissue is often difficult due to large quantities of polysaccharides and polyphenolic
compounds that accumulate in this tissue and co-purify with the RNA. Here we demonstrate that a modified version of the method
used to isolate RNA from pine trees and the woody plant Cinnamomun tenuipilum is ideal for isolating high quality RNA from

A real-time PCR genotyping assay to detect FAD2A SNPs in peanuts (Arachis hypogaea L.)
Provedor de dados: 69
Autores: Barkley,Noelle A; Wang,Ming Li; Pittman,Roy N.
The high oleic (C18:1) phenotype in peanuts has been previously demonstrated to result from a homozygous recessive genotype
(ol1ol1ol2ol2) in two homeologous fatty acid desaturase genes (FAD2A and FAD2B) with two key SNPs. These mutant SNPs,
specifically G448A in FAD2A and 442insA in FAD2B, significantly limit the normal function of the desaturase enzyme activity
which converts oleic acid into linoleic acid by the addition of a second double bond in the hydrocarbon chain. Previously, a
genotyping assay was developed to detect wild type and mutant alleles in FAD2B. A real-time PCR assay has now been developed
to detect wild type and mutant alleles (G448A) in FAD2A using either seed or leaf tissue. This assay was demonstrated to be
applicable for the...

Provedor de dados: 72
Autores: Kenneth W,Bruland.
This presentation is a review of the chemistries of redox sensitive elements within suboxic regions of extreme oxygen minimum
zones. Suboxic regions are defined as extreme oxygen minimum zones with dissolved oxygen < 10 µmol kg-1 (and likely <5
µmol kg-1), and with clear evidence of nitrate reduction, but not sulfate reduction. These are regions with nitrate deficits > 10
µmol kg-1 or N* values of _10 µmol kg-1. Suboxic regions predictably occur in the tropical and subtropical eastern Pacific and
the Arabian Sea. These suboxic zones are important in the global biogeochemistry of nitrogen and act as an important sink for
fixed nitrogen. Minor and trace element redox couples such as iodate/iodide and leachable particulate Mn/dissolved Mn undergo...

A simple ethanol wash of the tissue homogenates recovers high-quality genomic DNA from Corchorus
species characterized by highly acidic and proteinaceous mucilages
Provedor de dados: 69
Autores: Kundu,Avijit; Sarkar,Debabrata; Bhattacharjee,Amit; Topdar,Niladri; Sinha,Mohit Kumar; Mahapatra,Bikash Sinha.
A simple miniprep based on early elimination of highly acidic and proteinaceous mucilages through ethanol washing of the tissue
homogenates has been developed for the extraction of genomic DNA from mature leaves and seeds of Corchorus spp. As
compared to high cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)-NaCl DNA extraction followed by ethanol-based removal of
remnant mucilages from the DNA pellet, this simple miniprep consistently and reproducibly recovers high amounts of DNA with
good spectral qualities at A260/A280 and A260/A230. The purified DNA is efficiently digested by restriction endonucleases, and
is suitable for PCR amplification of nuclear microsatellites with expected allele sizes.

In the past 20 years, different areas of research concerning native and exotic species, herbaceous crops and forest plantations have
been oriented toward satisfying domestic, industrial and transportation energy requirements. Because bioenergy species constitute
an important resource, it would be strategic for a country to have a method for identifying areas suitable for their cultivation to
properly incorporate the establishment of energy crops into land use planning. In this study, we sought to define the suitable
territories for 16 bioenergy species and their energy potential based on their soil and climate requirements in Central and Southern
Chile. We used an adapted version of the FAO EcoCrop database implemented through DIVA-GIS software to predict...

Provedor de dados: 69
Autores: Deshmukh,Vishal P; Thakare,Prashant V; Chaudhari,Uddhav S; Gawande,Prashant A.
Current protocols for isolation of genomic DNA from Terminalia arjuna have their own limitations due to the presence of high
content of gummy polysaccharides and polyphenols. DNA isolated by these protocols is contaminated with a yellowish, sticky and
viscous matrix. In our modified DNA isolation method polysaccharides and polyphenols are removed prior to the precipitation of
the DNA. Then the genomic DNA was precipitated using isopropanol. This protocol yielded a high molecular weight DNA
isolated from fresh as well as dry leaves of T. arjuna, which was free from contamination and colour. Isolated DNA can be used
for restriction digestion and PCR amplification. The main objective of the present protocol is to provide a simple method of
isolation of DNA,...

A simple negative selection method to identify adenovirus recombinants using colony PCR
Provedor de dados: 69
Autores: Zhao,Yongliang; Dong,Zongming; Li,Tengfei; Huang,Gang.
Background: The AdEasy system is a fast-track system for generating recombinant adenoviruses using the efficient homologous
recombination machinery between shuttle and adenovirus backbone plasmids in Escherichia coli BJ5183 cells. The key step is
homologous recombination in BJ5183 cells, which is driven by RecA activity. However, culture time is stringently limited to
reduce the damage to recombinant plasmids by RecA activity. Therefore, rapid identification of recombinant adenoviruses within
the limited time-period is critical. Results: We developed a simple negative selection method to identify recombinant adenoviruses
using colony PCR, which improves the efficiency of adenovirus recombination screening and packaging. Conclusions: The
negative selection...

A Simulation Model of Mesophytic Perennial Grasslands
Provedor de dados: 117
Autores: Castellaro G,Giorgio; Aguilar G,Claudio; Vera I,Raul; Morales S,Luis.
Grasslands are complex ecosystems and their processes are affected by soil, meteorological, and management variables. In this
context, dynamic simulation models are useful to understand these processes and to design grassland use strategies. The aim of
this study was to develop and validate a simulation model of perennial pasture growth based on soil and climate variables. A first
approach considered that soil fertility levels were adequate; therefore, soil water availability and phytomass level were the main
variables affecting pasture growth. The subroutines considered were water balance, pasture growth, and root biomass dynamics.
The hypotheses regarding the functioning of the system were formulated as a group of equations which were solved numerically...

Autores: Carvajal,F; Lerma-Cabrera,J. M; Sánchez-Amate,M. C; Cubero,I.
Chlorpyrifos (CPF) is an organophosphate compound used worldwide as a pesticide in agriculture that, after subcutaneous
injection, keeps acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity inhibited within an organism for months. Ample clinical and experimental
evidence shows that CPF exposure induces relevant and persistent neurobehavioral deficits in humans and animals, even after one
single episode/injection. Additionally, clinical and epidemiological studies evidence that a significant percentage (60%) of Gulf
War veterans as well as agricultural workers suffering from acute OP intoxication may have developed intolerance to nicotine and

Provedor de dados: 47
Autores: Meyer-Rochow,Victor Benno; Mishra,Monalisa.
We are describing a rhabdom organization of the eye of the chrysanthemum beetle Phytoecia rufiventris that to date has not been
described from any other insect. In cerambycid beetles free rhabdomeres, forming a circular, open rhabdom, surround a central
rhabdom made up of the rhabdomeres of one or two cells. In Phytoecia rufiventris the central rhabdomeres are missing throughout
the eye and the microvilli of the outer 6 rhabdomeres are regularly oriented in three directions. Following the classification of
rhabdom types suggested by Wachmann (1979), we suggest to name the rhabdom arrangement seen in the retina of Phytoecia
rufiventris "Grundmuster 3". This pattern ought to facilitate polarization sensitivity and movement perception, features that

Abstract Background Pathologic vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation and migration after vascular injury promotes
the development of occlusive vascular disease. Therefore, an effective chemical agent to suppress aberrant proliferation and
migration of VSMCs can be a potential therapeutic modality for occlusive vascular disease such as atherosclerosis and restenosis.
To find an anti-proliferative chemical agent for VSMCs, we screened an in-house small molecule library, and the selected small
molecule was further validated for its anti-proliferative effect on VSMCs using multiple approaches, such as cell proliferation
assays, wound healing assays, transwell migration assays, and ex vivo aortic ring assay. Results Among 43 initially screened...

We developed a standard weight equation Ws to aid in the analysis of pejerrey Odonthestes bonariensis body condition over time
and across populations using the relative weight index Wr. Weight - length data were compiled from 73 populations of pejerrey
(N=16.022) from the Argentine pampas region. We used the regression-line-percentile technique, which provides a 75th-percentile
standard by length intervals of 10 mm, to develop the Ws equation. The proposed equation is log10 Ws=-5,267+3,163 log10 Lst;
Ws is weight in grams and Lst is standard length in millimeters. This equation is proposed for use with pejerrey between 120 and
520 mm of Lst. Values for Wr calculated with the Ws equation did not consistently increase or decrease as function of fish

For studying genetic diversity in natural populations of Terminalia, a medicinal plant, our attempts to isolate high quality DNA
using several previously reported protocols and even modifications were unsuccessful. We therefore combined CTAB based
isolation, and column based purification step, to isolate DNA from Terminalia arjuna. The DNA isolated using this standardized
protocol was high in quality and suitable for restriction digestion and generation of random amplification of polymorphic DNA
(RAPD) and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP).

Pain is a common distressing symptom in dental practice. Depending upon the cases, different techniques are used to relieve pain.
One of these is peripheral trigeminal nerve block. Peripheral trigeminal nerve block anaesthesia has proved to be an effective and
convenient way to anaesthetise large regions of oral and maxillofacial complex. This block can be intraoral or extra oral. The
intraoral route is through the greater palatine foramen in which the dental surgeons enter into the pterygopalatine fossa, where the
maxillary nerve is situated. The morphological variations in the position of greater palatine foramen may be of clinical importance

A unique mechanism of nuclear division in Giardia lamblia involves components of the ventral disk

Provedor de dados: 47
Autores: Solari,Alberto J.; Rahn,Monica I.; Saura,Alicia; Lujan,Hugo D.
The fine structure of the binucleate, parasitic protist Giardia lamblia during interphase and divisional stages was studied by serial
thin sectioning and three-dimensional reconstructions. The earlier sign of nuclear division is the development of a few peripheral
areas of densely packed chromatin directly attached to the inner nuclear envelope. An intracytoplasmic sheet of ventral disk
components grows from the cell periphery towards one of the nuclei, apparently constricting this nucleus, which becomes located
at a ventral bulge. After the basal bodies become duplicated, a full nuclear division occurs in trophozoites, giving two pairs of
parent-daughter nuclei. This full division occurs in a dorsal-ventral direction, with the resulting nuclear pairs...

Tillandsia bryoides fue incluida en la sinonimia de T. tricholepis porque todos los elementos del lectotipo (P. Lorentz 128, BM)
pertenecen a esta última especie. Sin embargo, se observaron en el campo, en distintos herbarios y en diversas publicaciones,
materiales que fueron previamente considerados como T. bryoides y que en realidad corresponden a una nueva especie de
Tillandsia subgen. Diaphoranthema. Esta nueva especie tiene flores solitarias, sésiles, amarillas y una bráctea floral glabra, y crece
en el centro de Perú, en Bolivia, y en el centro y noroeste de Argentina. En este trabajo se establece un nombre válido para esta
especie, junto con una ilustración detallada, datos de distribución, y una discusión de sus relaciones con las especies...

Pocos estudios han considerado la dinámica de poblaciones de abejas en bosques o hábitats no alterados por el hombre. La
presencia de abejas silvestres Africanizadas de Apis mellifera (Apidae) fue estudiado por 10-17 años en áreas previamente sin esta
especie. Aquí presento e interpreto resultados de tres bosques neotropicales: Guyana Francesa, Panamá y Yucatán, México (5° a
19° N. latitud). La abeja Africanizada exótica no produjo efecto negativo en las abejas nativas, incluyendo especies altamente
sociales y solitarias. Diferencias mayores a través del tiempo fueron encontradas en la abundancia de las abejas de miel en flores
cerca de hábitat con mayor grado de disturbio, comparado con el bosque espeso. Al nivel poblacional, muestreado en bloques de...

Abiotic alterations caused by forest fragmentation affect tree regeneration: a shade and drought
tolerance gradient in the remnants of Coastal Maulino Forest
Provedor de dados: 97
Autores: GUERRERO,PABLO C; BUSTAMANTE,RAMIRO O.
Plant regeneration is strongly determined by light and soil moisture differences between habitáis; both variables are modified by
large-scale forest fragmentation. Several studies have indicated this alteration as the mechanism involved in tropical forest
community change. The effects of fragmentation may be much more severe in Mediterranean and deciduous forests, because plant
species in these forests show a stress tolerance tradeoff between shade and drought. Our study was performed in the deciduous
fragmented Coastal Maulino Forest: Reserva Nacional Los Queules (RNLQ) and surrounding small fragments. We hypothesised
that Aristotelia chilensis (shade intolerant but drought tolerant) should increase its regeneration in small patches as a consequence
of...

Autores: ACEBES,PABLO; TRABA,JUAN; PECO,BEGOÑA; REUS,MARÍA L; GIANNONI,STELLA M; MALO,JUAN E.
Defining plant communities in desert zones is difficult due to large scale homogeneity and small scale heterogeneity, thus making
provision of systematic information for conservation decisions problematic. We analysed plant communities of the most arid
sector of Monte Desert for structure, plant composition and environmental variables. Small-scale variables such as slope, rock
cover, bare ground and litter, as well as large-scale ones such as species diversity, composition and similarity within and between
sites were included. Analyses of floristic composition showed the difficulty of segregating distinct communities due to high
internal heterogeneity and overlap between the different sites. Only mesquite woodlands, a community situated at the extreme of...

An unusual unilateral variation in the branching pattern of axillary artery was observed in a 60 year oíd female embalmed cadáver.
The axillary artery had only two branches arising from its proximal (first) part and no branches from its remaining distal (second
&amp; third) parts. The branches are superior thoracic (usual) and another large collateral (unusual) branch. This collateral
branch is the origin of several important arteries as the circumflex scapular, thoracodorsal, posterior circumflex humeral, thoraco-
acromial and lateral thoracic arteries. We propose to ñame this artery as common subscapular trunk. The course of this collateral
artery (common subscapular trunk) and its branches and also clinical significance of this variation are...

Spatial and temporal patterns of aboveground biomass and nutritive value of rangeland species with respect to the influence of
grazing and soil moisture were investigated. The research was conducted during two years at the Tomagh Research Station, near
Sanjawi, Ziarat District, Balochistan, Pakistan. This area is protected from grazing since 1998; however, some of the area is open
for grazing. Tree sites were selected for research purposes: a protected plain, a protected hilly, and an unprotected plain grazed
area. Sampling was carried out during the spring, summer and autumn seasons. Results revealed that soil moisture was greater at
the protected than unprotected sites. The aboveground plant biomass was 66% to 76% lower at unprotected than protected...

The significance of field work in remote sensing studies when applied to large areas has often been underestimated. The
combination of specific forest inventories for the estimation of aboveground biomass in large dry tropical forest areas with remote
sensor data has scarcely been explored to date. In this work, a systematic, stratified forest inventory involving 100 X 100 m square
plots in an area of Peruvian Prosopis pallida dry forest, roughly one million hectares in size in the Piura province (Peru) has been
compiled. The inventory encompassed the principal silvicultural variables defining the ecosystem studied, which were used in

Abscisic acid biosynthesis and catabolism and their regulation roles in fruit ripening
Provedor de dados: 85
Autores: Yang,FW; Feng,XQ.
Abscisic acid (ABA) plays a series of significant physiology roles in higher plants including but not limited to promote bud and
seed dormancy, accelerate foliage fall, induce stomatal closure, inhibit growth and enhance resistance. Recently, it has been
revealed that ABA also has an important regulator role in the growth, development and ripening of fruit. In higher plants ABA is
produced from an indirect pathway from the cleavage products of carotenoids. The accumulation of endogenous ABA levels in
plants is a dynamic balance controlled by the processes of biosynthesis and catabolism, through the regulation of key ABA
biosynthetic gene and enzyme activities. It has been hypothesized that ABA levels could be part of the signal that trigger fruit
ripening,...

Lead is one of the heavy metals most used in industry. Poisoning due to long-term lead exposure is known as saturnism, and is an
occupational illness that has been known for many years. Lead is highly toxic and can compromise the structural and functional
patterns of organs and systems. The aim of this study was to examine the lungs and kidneys of fetuses from female Wistar rats
exposed to lead acetate. In this study, the lungs and kidneys of 20 fetuses from female rats that had previously been treated with
lead acetate were dissected, fixed, embedded in paraffin and stained with hematoxylin and eosin. Macroscopic changes to the
shape, color and consistency of organs from fetuses treated with this heavy metal were observed, in comparison with organs

Autores: Vanderhoff,E. Natasha; Hodge,Anne-Marie; Arbogast,Brian S.; Nilsson,Jonas; Knowles,Travis W.
We investigated abundance and activity patterns of the margay (Leopardus wiedii) via remote camera-trapping at Wildsumaco
Wildlife Sanctuary, a new preserve located near Sumaco National Park, in the eastern Andean foothills of Ecuador. We recorded
85 capture events and ten individuals, including one juvenile, over a total of 3220 camera-trap nights. Activity was mostly
nocturnal and we found no difference in abundance between primary and secondary forest. Our capture rate (2.64 captures/100
camera-trap nights) indicates a high abundance of margays in the region. The site lies within a matrix of agricultural lands and the
high abundance and seasonal occurrence data seem to suggest that while one or two females may occupy the area permanently,
most margays...

In this study we analyze the abundance and distribution patterns of Lithophaga patagonica in valves of Ostrea puelchana and
compare them to those of Lithophaga sp. observed on the fossil species " Ostrea " patagonica and " Ostrea " alvarezii from the late
Miocene Puerto Madryn Formation. No specimen of the fossil oysters showed borings of Lithophaga sp. on the interior surface of
the valves. This suggests that they were produced while the oysters were still living and, at the same time, that the oyster beds
were buried rapidly after death. In Ostrea puelchana the boring abundance was significantly higher for the left valve and, within it,
the areas more heavily bored were the umbones and the platform. The same results were obtained for valves of " Ostrea "...

Cheilodactylus variegatus is an abundant carnivorous demersal reef fish that lives in the shallow subtidal of the north-central
Chilean coast. Characteristically, these environments are dominated by kelp forests of Lessonia trabeculata. This species preys on
a great variety of benthic invertebrates, and shows particularly high consumption rates on amphipod crustaceans. In our study, two
widely separated populations of C. variegatus were considered (central and northern Chile). Individuals that form part of these
populations show considerable differences in their distribution, abundance and trophic behavior. In the northern zone, the species
is abundant and both juveniles and adults are distributed along the whole bathymetric gradient. This contrasts with...

Abundance of Commersons dolphin, Cephalorhynchus commersonii (Lacépède 1804), in the eastern portion of the Strait of
Magellan was estimated by means of aerial transects in autumn (June 1996). Using a helicopter at 100 m altitude and 129 km h-1,
58 sightings representing 98 animals (average group size Es = 1.7, SD = 0.13) along 818.6 km of linear transects were recorded.
Data analysis with "Distance" software gave a density estimation of 0.34 ind km-2 (CV = 0.27) and a population size of 1,206
(95% CI 711-2,049 individuals). Commersons dolphin showed a habitat preference for the narrows, compared to open waters in

Provedor de dados: 41
Autores: Caccavari,Marta A.; Guler,M. Verónica.
Fossil mimosoid polyads have been recently recovered from Neogene deposits in the Colorado Basin, Argentina, and the new
species Acaciapollenites acaciae sp. nov. is described, which is closely similar to polyads of species included in Acacia Miller
subgenus Acacia Vassal. It is characterized by colporate apertures on the distal face of the pollen grains, a typical polyad of the
subgenus Acacia. The new polyad species is very similar to those of the extant Acacia curvifructa Burkart. Comparing the habitat
of subgenus Acacia extant species, the Acaciapollenites acaciae occurrence suggests drier and warmer paleoclimatic conditions
than today for the Late Miocene-Early Pliocene in the Colorado Basin. Paleogeographic data of Acacia pollen diversity are...

During the laboratory dissection of the fore arm, an accessory head of flexor pollicis longus muscle has been observed unilaterally
in the right upper limb of a male cadaver. It took its origin from the under surface of flexor digitorum superficialis muscle just
distal to the origin of this muscle from medial epicondyle. On further dissection we have noticed that, the accessory belly was
running downwards to the medial aspect of the tendon of flexor pollicis longus muscle for its insertion. Its possible role in anterior
interosseous syndrome is discussed in detail with a brief review

Autores: Chanasong,Rachanee; Putiwat,Phongpitak; Roboon,Jureepon; Sakulsak,Natthiya.
An exhaustive knowledge of the liver vascular patterns as well as possible anatomical variations is significant in the planning and
performance of all liver surgical procedures in order for the vascularity not to be disturbed or not causing necrosis of the liver
parenchyma postoperatively. The celiac trunk usually provides three branches; left gastric, splenic and common hepatic arteries.
The left and right hepatic arteries generally derive from proper hepatic artery which is a branch of common hepatic artery. To
study the incidence of celiac trunk ramification, the branching patterns of the celiac trunk of 23 Thai cadavers (17 males, 6
females) were documented during routine dissection by medical students at the Department of Anatomy, Faculty of Medical...

Accuracy of Palate Shape as sex Indicator in Human Skull with Maxillary Teeth Loss
Provedor de dados: 77
Autores: Suazo Galdames,Iván Claudio; Zavando Matamala,Daniela Alejandra; Smith,Ricardo Luiz.
In forensic medicine, diagnosis of sex is the first step in the identification of human skulls. A first approximation is carried out via
the qualitative analysis of a series of morphological indicators of sexual dimorphism. Classical studies (Krogman &amp;
Iscan, 1986) described 14 indicators for the diagnosis of sex with an accuracy of 90%, and one of these indicators is the shape of
the palate. This study analyzed the effect of the loss of teeth on the accuracy of the diagnosis of sex in Brazilians adult skulls,
using the shape of the palate as an indicator. We used 98 skulls of adult Brazilians, comprising 35 females and 63 males with an
average age of 39.3 years (SD 7.8). The skulls were classified into two groups, namely the fully edentulous...

Action of calcium binders.: Formation of calcium salts in the intestinal tract and the blood circulatory
system
Provedor de dados: 38
Autores: Martínez Yaquelo,César.
Calcium binders are water- soluble substances whose anionic part can possibly react with calcium cations present in any part of
the human body. Some examples of calcium binders are phosphoric, oxalic and phytic acids and their alkaline salts present in
many natural foods, in some foods containing additives, and in some medicines. There are also uric and lactic acids that are the
result of normal metabolism. The first negative action of calcium binders takes place in the intestinal tract when they react with
calcium of dairy food. The latter produces a combination of calcium binder anions with calcium cations, and then an insoluble salt
that precipitates as small solid particles that cannot be assimilated and which are eliminated in the faeces. The second...

Activation of group II metabotropic glutamate receptors blocks zinc release from hippocampal mossy
fibers
Provedor de dados: 48
Autores: Matias,Carlos M; Dionísio,Jose C; Saggau,Peter; Quinta-Ferreira,Maria Emilia.
BACKGROUND: The hippocampal CA3 area contains large amounts of vesicular zinc in the mossy fiber terminals which is
released during synaptic activity, depending on presynaptic calcium. Another characteristic of these synapses is the presynaptic
localization of high concentrations of group II metabotropic glutamate receptors, specifically activated by DCG-IV. Previous work
has shown that DCG-IV affects only mossy fiber-evoked responses but not the signals from associational-commissural afferents,
blocking mossy fiber synaptic transmission. Since zinc is released from mossy fibers even for single stimuli and it is generally
assumed to be co-released with glutamate, the aim of the work was to investigate the effect of DCG-IV on mossy fiber zinc
signals....

monocytogenes ATCC 7644 o L. innocua ATCC 33090. Dentro de las 7 que exhibieron actividad, 2 se seleccionaron para estudios
complementarios y se identificaron por métodos fenotípicos y genotípicos como Enterococcus mundtii Tw 56 y Lactococcus lactis
subsp. lactis Tw 34. Después de la neutralización con NaOH y tratamiento térmico (100 ºC y 121 ºC durante 5 min) la actividad
antagonista del sobrenadante libre de células se mantuvo activa. El tratamiento con lisozima, lipasa y catalasa no afectó la
actividad antimicrobiana. Sin embargo, la actividad enzimática de la tripsina suprimió la acción inhibitoria del sobrenadante,

enzyme and generating free radicals
Provedor de dados: 48
Autores: Jantakee,Kanyaluck; Tragoolpua,Yingmanee.
BACKGROUND: Honey is a natural product obtained from the nectar that is collected from flowers by bees. It has several
properties, including those of being food and supplementary diet, and it can be used in cosmetic products. Honey imparts
pharmaceutical properties since it has antibacterial and antioxidant activities. The antibacterial and antioxidant activities of Thai
honey were investigated in this study. RESULTS: The honey from longan flower (source No. 1) gave the highest activity on
MRSA when compared to the other types of honey, with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 12.5% (v/v) and minimum
bactericidal concentration of 25% (v/v). Moreover, it was found that MRSA isolate 49 and S. aureus were completely inhibited by
the 50% (v/v) longan honey...

Autores: HERNÁNDEZ,FELIPE; GÁLVEZ,NICOLÁS; GIMONA,ALESSANDRO; LAKER,JERRY; BONACIC,CRISTIÁN.
Here we provide the first analysis of activity patterns exhibited by spotted and melanistic colour morphs of the vulnerable guiña
Leopardus guigna, in a forest landscape of southern Chile. Camera traps showed guiñas were mainly active at night (64% of
photos). Melanistic guiñas were more nocturnal (82% of photos) than the more common spotted cats (57%). Spotted guiñas were
more active on cloudy and moonless nights. Our study provides novel findings about the behavioural plasticity of guiña in
different ambient conditions, and the relative advantage to each colour morph to persist in an increasingly human-dominated
landscape.

This work studies the acute contact toxicity of oxalic acid (OA) on a honeybee polyhybrid subspecies (Apis mellifera), which is
the dominant biotype in southwestern zone of Uruguay (SWZU) and the country's most important honey-producing region. We
determined the mean lethal dose (LD50), as well as the no observed effect level (NOEL) and the lowest observed effect level
(LOEL) values. We also estimated the total number of honeybees per hive in the test area. The aim was to assess the relationship
between the maximum OA dose used in Uruguay (3.1 g OA per hive) and the toxicological parameters of honeybees from SWZU.
The current dose of 3.1 g OA per hive corresponds to 132.8 OA per honeybee since determined NOEL is 400 OA per honeybee;

Acute Effects of Sulphur Mustard Gas on the Number of Lymphocytes in the Rat's Spleen
Provedor de dados: 77
Autores: Mehrdad,Jahanshahi; Bahadoran,H; Asadi,M. H.
Sulphur mustard (SM), commonly known as mustard gas is an alkylating agent that causes serious blisters upon contact with
human skin. SM is frequently used as a chemical warfare agent. There is some evidence for sulfur mustard-induced lymph system
effects in humans. Between 2000-2001, 42 male albino Wistar rats were used. After accommodation with environment, we divided
rats to control, sham and experimental groups (2.5 mg/kg, 5 mg/kg, 10 mg/kg, 20 mg/kg and 40 mg/kg). Then we injected sulphur
mustard oil in rat's intraperitoneal space. Then their spleens were removed for histological verification. Our results showed that
significant difference in lymphocytes number in experimental groups after 24 hours. The number of lymphocytes in 5, 10, 20 and

Abstract. A 96 h acute silver toxicity test was performed in order to determine silver toxicity (LC50) to a local fish species
(Cnesterodon decemmaculatus) in a river with extreme water-quality characteristics (Pilcomayo River, South America) and
evaluate a cross-fish-species extrapolation of the Biotic Ligand Model. The dissolved silver concentrations tested were 0.095,
0.148, 0.175 and 0.285 mg Ag L&#8722;1. The 96 h Ag LC50 calculated for C. decemmaculatus was 0.14 mg
L&#8722;1 (0.18 - 0.10) and the value predicted by BLM for Pimephales promelas was 0.051 mg Ag L&#8722;1. Test
water elevated hardness may have exerted some protective effect. High mean water pH may have exerted a major protective effect

This study reports the first case of adoption in a wild group of black and gold howler monkeys (Alouatta caraya). After the death
of one adult female with a dependent infant, her daughter with a dependent infant adopted the orphan of similar age of her own
infant. We recorded the activity and proximity between the adopter and both infants during two following days. The adoptive
female appeared to provide equal treatment toward both infants and the orphan seemed to recognize the female as his mother. This
report suggests that adult females of A. caraya can rear two infants at once.

Adult mesenchymal stem cell therapy for myelin repair in Multiple Sclerosis
Provedor de dados: 48
Autores: Rivera,Francisco J; Aigner,Ludwig.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating immune-mediated disease of the central nervous system (CNS). It is the most frequent
neurological disease in young adults and affects over 2 million people worldwide. Current treatments reduce the relapse rate and
the formation of inflammatory lesions in the CNS, but with only temporary and limited success. Despite the presence of
endogenous oligodendroglial progenitors (OPCs) and of spontaneous remyelination, at least in early MS its levels and its qualities
are apparently insufficient for a sustained endogenous functional repair. Therefore, novel MS therapies should consider not only
immunemodulatory but also myelin repair activities. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) represent an attractive alternative to
develop a...

Advances in the development of a noninvasive embryo model for the evaluation of the quality of
cloned embryos subjected to different treatments
Provedor de dados: 69
Autores: Felmer,Ricardo; Arias,María Elena.
Total number of cells in cloned embryos is generally lower than that of in vivo derived embryos and in bovines cell allocation at
the blastocyst stage, has been observed to be affected in a large proportion of cloned embryos. The current embryo staining
procedures are toxic for mammalian cells and thus can not be used to determine the developmental potential of a stained embryo.
Therefore, in the present study we sought to assess the feasibility to develop a noninvasive embryo model that would be suitable
for the evaluation of cloned embryos subjected to different nuclear transfer and embryo culture procedures. For doing this, we

Autores: Hohl,Leandro dos S. L; Sicuro,Fernando L; Azorit,Concepción; Carrasco,Rafael; Rocha-Barbosa,Oscar.
Morphological variation of the ramus mandibulae of wild Sus scrofa was described and correlated to sex and age differences.
Young forms (n=27, 15 males, 12 females) and adults (n=23, 13 males, 10 females) were analyzed through Geometric
Morphometrics (2-D) to assess differences between groups. We found significant differences between age- and sex-related shape
variations at ramus mandibulae level. Young wild boars present bulky angular process with backward oriented coronoid process,
while adults show slender jaw vertical ramus, and orthogonally oriented coronoid process. The ramus mandibulae in female wild
boars is more robust and bulky than in males. The morphological changes between young and adult forms are related to alterations
in the osteo-muscular...

Estimation of age-at-death is an integral part of the identification process of individuals in many forensic odontology cases where
their identity cannot be determined by visualization or other ways. Dental age estimation in the adult is more challenging as most
of the dentition is completely developed by 18 years of age. This study employs a mesio-distal (MD) pulp-to-tooth ratio taken at
the neck of lower third molars (LM3) to provide an estimation of age at the time of radiographic imaging based on the well-known
fact that pulp volume tends to decrease with advancing age due to continued apposition of secondary dentine throughout
adulthood. A total of 155 Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) radiographs of LM3s for a random sample of 155 Jordanian

BACKGROUND: Aged garlic extract (AGE) and its main constituent S-allylcysteine (SAC) are natural antioxidants with
protective effects against cerebral ischemia or cancer, events that involve hypoxia stress. Cobalt chloride (CoCl2) has been used to
mimic hypoxic conditions through the stabilization of the &#945; subunit of hypoxia inducible factor (HIF-
&#921;&#945;) and up-regulation of HIF-1a-dependent genes as well as activation of hypoxic conditions such as
reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, loss of mitochondrial membrane potential and apoptosis. The present study was
designed to assess the effect of AGE and SAC on the CoCl2-chemical hypoxia model in PC12 cells RESULTS: We found that
CoCl2 induced the stabilization of HIF-1a and its...

Santos,Thiago de Santana.
Oral pyogenic granuloma is a hyperplastic inflammatory lesion commonly associated to local irritation or trauma. Females are
more affected than men probably due to the vascular effects of hormones that occur during puberty, pregnancy and menopause. In
the pregnancy, the lesions are known as "pregnancy tumor" and tend to occur more frequently during the second and third
trimester. In the oral cavity, histopathological examination is required for diagnosis, since the lesion is clinically indistinguishable
from other reactive lesions and, usually, there is no evidence of bone involvement. The authors report a rare case of pyogenic
granuloma with destruction of alveolar bone mimicking a malignant tumor in a 20-year-old woman in the 19th week of pregnancy.

Autores: Hong,Samin; Park,Kyoungsoo; Kim,Chan Yun; Seong,Gong Je.
The effect of hypoxia on the release of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) in transformed rat retinal ganglion cells (RGCs)
and the effect of agmatine on the hypoxia-induced production of TNF-alpha in RGCs were evaluated. RGCs were cultured under
hypoxic conditions with 5% oxygen, with or without 100&#956;M agmatine. The expression levels of TNF-alpha and its
receptor-1 (TNF-R1) were investigated by Western blot analysis. After 6 hours of hypoxia, we noted an increase in TNF-alpha
production in RGCs. Agmatine significantly reduced TNF-alpha level after 12 hours of hypoxic treatment. The expression of
TNF-R1 was not affected by the hypoxia or agmatine treatment. Our results show that agmatine inhibits the TNF-alpha production

Agriculture and livestock impacts on river floodplain wetlands: a study case from the lower Uruguay
river
Provedor de dados: 51
Autores: Bena,María Julia; Sirolli,Horacio; Kalesnik,Fabio.
Even though wetlands are very valuable environments, they suffer heavy exploitation and transformation processes that affect
their biodiversity. The main goal of this study was to characterize the herbaceous plant communities associated with the southern
Uruguay River flood plain. We focused on lowlands of two farms, one of which is surrounded by an embankment to prevent
flooding. A random stratified sampling was performed in 72 plots. To detect distribution patterns and plant species associations we
performed a Detrended Correspondence Analysis (DCA) and a Two-Way indicator species analysis (TWINSPAN). We could
identify six groups of plots whose ordination patterns are related to the flooding preferences of dominant species. Herbaceous
plant groups that...

Provedor de dados: 47
Autores: Caro,Luis A.; Santecchia,Natalia; Marinangeli,Pablo A.; Curvetto,Néstor R.; Hernández,Luis F.
The induction and improvement of in vitro rhizogenesis of microshoots of Prosopis chilensis (Mol.) Stuntz and Nothofagus alpina
(Poep. et Endl. Oerst.) were compared using Agrobacterium rhizogenes (Ar) versus indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) in the culture
media. Microshoots of P. chilensis (1-2 cm length), coming from in vitro grown seedlings, were cultivated in a modified
Broadleaved Tree Medium (BTMm) containing half salt concentration of macronutrients and 0.05 mg.L-1 benzilaminopurine
(BAP). After 30 days, microshoots with 2-4 leaves were selected and cultured in BTMm-agar in presence or abscense of Ar and in
combination with IBA. For N. alpina, the apical shoots with the first 2 true leaves, from 5 weeks old seedlings, were cultured in
the abovementioned...

Autores: Taamalli,Wael; Geuna,Filippo; Banfi,Riccardo; Bassi,Daniele; Daoud,Douja; Zarrouk,Mokhtar.
In this study, a total of 14 agronomic traits, five AFLP primer combinations and ten SSR loci were used to describe and to classify
a group of Tunisian olive genotypes into groups based on molecular profiles and agronomic traits. The analysis of variance of the
agronomical data revealed significant differences among accessions for all measured traits. The mean phenotypic dissimilarity
(0.34 with a range of 0.08-0.6) was low in comparison to dissimilarity calculated using AFLP (0.50 with a range of 0.16-0.70) and
SSR markers (0.76 with a range 0.35-0.94). The correlation between the agronomical dissimilarity matrix and the matrices of
genetic dissimilarity based on SSR and AFLP markers was very weak: 0.156 (p = 0.05) and 0.185 (p = 0.05), respectively. The...

Autores: Mallet,James.
Soon after his return from the Malay Archipelago, Alfred Russel Wallace published one of his most signifcant papers. The paper
used butterfies of the family Papilionidae as a model system for testing evolutionary hypotheses, and included a revision of the
Papilionidae of the region, as well as the description of some 20 new species. Wallace argued that the Papilionidae were the most
advanced butterfies, against some of his colleagues such as Bates and Trimen who had claimed that the Nymphalidae were more
advanced because of their possession of vestigial forelegs. In a very important section, Wallace laid out what is perhaps the
clearest Darwinist defnition of the differences between species, geographic subspecies, and local varieties. He also discussed...

Weed suppression is one of the several benefits achieved by soil incorporation of crop residues and such suppression is believed to
be allelopathic in nature. The allelopathic potential of different crop residues: viz. sorghum (Sorghum bicolor [L.] Moench),
sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.), brassica (Brassica campestris L.) was evaluated in rice (Oryza sativa L.) and jungle rice
(Echinochloa colona [L.] Link). Chopped crop residues were soil-incorporated alone and mixed at 6 g kg-1 soil (12 t ha-1) and
compared with a control without residues. Soil incorporation of residues substantially delayed germination of jungle rice. The time
to start germination, time to 50% emergence, mean emergence time, emergence index, and final germination percentage were all...

Plant species that growth close to or under the canopy of Acacia dealbata Link (Fabaceae, subfamily: Mimosoideae) within its
non-native range, survive with difficulty or not at all, especially if they are native. This phenomenon has been attributed to
allelopathy; one of the strategies used by A. dealbata to trigger an invasion process. Native species Quillaja saponaria Molina
(tree) and Helenium aromaticum (Hook.) H.L. Bailey (herb), share A. dealbata s range in South-central Chile. This study was

Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is a well known allelopathic plant species. However, Pakistani farmers generally incorporate the
sunflower residue in the soil with the aim to enhance soil fertility and organic matter. Field experiments were, therefore, carried
out to evaluate the effect of sunflower residue incorporation on growth and yield of rice (Oryza sativa L.) and subsequent wheat
(Triticum aestivum L.) crop. For rice crop, there were four treatments viz. control, sunflower residue incorporation (RI), NPK

Allozymic variation in the clam genus Eurhomalea (Bivalvia: Veneriidae) along southern South
American coast
Provedor de dados: 97
Autores: GALLARDO,M.H; GONZÁLEZ,C; MENA,C; LOMOVASKY,B; MORRICONI,E; CLASING,E.
The correspondence between allozymic variation and specific differentiation was studied in four populations corresponding to the
three nominal, allopatric species of clam genus Eurhomalea (E. rufa, E. lenticularis, E. exalbida) described for southern South
America. Allozyme variation scored in 12 loci was high as indicated by heterozygosity levels (15.8-20.7 %) and by the presence
of only three monomorphic loci (Hk-2, Icd-2, and Xdh-1). These high estimates of allelic variability were influenced by the low
levels of interspecific genetic similarity (I = 0.64) and for the high conspecific values of genetic identity observed. The high
estimates of substructuring found at the species level (F ST = 0.39) contrasted with the low differentiation (F ST = 0.027)...

Abstract Background A number of dysregulated miRNAs have been identified and are proposed to have significant roles in the
pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus or renal pathology. Alpinia oxyphylla has shown significant anti-inflammatory properties
and play an anti-diabetes role. The objective of this study was to detect the alteration of miRNAs underlying the anti-diabetes
effects of A. oxyphylla extract (AOE) in a type II diabetic animal model (C57BIKsj db-/db-). Results Treatment with AOE for 8
weeks led to lower concentrations of blood glucose, urine albumin, and urine creatinine. 17 and 13 miRNAs were statistically
identified as differentially regulated in the DB/DB and db-/db- AOE mice, respectively, compared to the untreated db-/db- mice.

Autores: Cleemput,Oswald van; Boeckx,Pascal.
The food demands of the increasing world population puts pressure on land use and N availability. In this paper an overview is
given of the different N cycling processes affected by agricultural activities. Of the amount of N added to the soil, about half is
removed from the field as harvested crop, while the remainder of the N is incorporated into soil organic matter or is lost to other
parts of the environment. During the last decades there has been much research on environmental consequences of agricultural
activities, mainly on emission of gaseous N compounds (NH3, NO, N2O and N2), but also on N leaching, runoff and erosion.
Study of the factors controlling loss of N is complex because of their multiplicity and mutual interactions. More recently...

Down syndrome is determined by the presence of an extra copy of autosome 21 and is expressed by multiple abnormalities, with
mental retardation being the most striking feature. The condition results in altered electrical membrane properties of fetal dorsal
root ganglia (DRG) neurons, as in the trisomy 16 fetal mouse, an animal model of the human condition. Cultured trisomic DRG
neurons from human and mouse fetuses present faster rates of depolarization and repolarization in the action potential compared
to normal controls and a shorter spike duration. Also, trisomy 16 brain and spinal cord tissue exhibit reduced acetylcholine
secretion. Therefore, we decided to study Ca2+ currents in cultured DRG neurons from trisomy 16 and age-matched control mice,

A serotonergic pathway is apparently involved in parasite-host interactions. Previous studies conducted in our laboratory showed
increased rates in oxygen consumption and alterations in body posture in the crab Hemigrapsus crenulatus parasitized by the
acanthocephalan, Profilicollis antarcticus. Such changes may be related to the functions described for biogenic amines in
crustaceans. During the infective stage the acanthocephalans live freely in the hemocelomic cavity, suggesting that the possible
alteration induced by biogenic amines may be related to their neurohormonal function in crustaceans. To test whether the presence
of P. antarcticus produced neurohormonal changes in its intermediate host, H. crenulatus, we analyzed serotonin and dopamine

We review factors influencing Liolaemus distributions in the central Chilean Andes and suggest areas of future research. Our
previous studies reveal that lizard parasites (ectoparasitic mites and ticks, and the endoparasite Plasmodium) do not set Liolaemus
altitudinal limits. Thermal tolerances do not appear to limit altitudinal distributions, although cold ambient temperatures dictate
that only live-bearing species can occur above 2,400 m elevation. Three Liolaemus species specialize on elevationally restricted

The tropical legume Acaciella angustissima inoculated with or without Sinorhizobium mexicanum ITTG R7T strain was
cultivated in an aluminium (Al) spiked soil to study its tolerance towards this metal. Seedlings of A. angustissima were grown in
soil with 0, 2, 4 or 6 mg Al kg-1. The effect of Al and inoculation on growth, nodulation, and nitrogen and tannins content in the
plants was monitored. Height and total and dry root weight of plantlets decreased significantly when soil was spiked with Al, but
increased when inoculated. Al decreased the number of nodules. Inoculum increased total N and tannin content of the plantlets. It
was found that Al reduced the growth of the tropical leguminous N2-fixing shrub A. angustissima, while inoculation with S....

Alveolar Ridge Conservation by Early Bone Formation After Tooth Extraction in Rabbits: A
Histomorphological Study
Provedor de dados: 77
Autores: Cantín,Mario; Olate,Sergio; Fuentes,Ramón; Vásquez,Bélgica.
Alveolar ridge volume loss is an irreversible process. To prevent this physiological event, which typically result in significant
local anatomical changes in both the horizontal and the vertical dimension, some strategies are indicated to minimize the loss of
ridge volume that typically follows tooth extraction. The purpose of this study was to evaluate if three different bone grafts could
promote new bone formation in the alveolar socket following tooth extraction for the alveolar ridge conservation. First mandibular
molars of male adults rabbits were extracted and the extraction sockets were randomly treated with three different bone grafts, one
xenograft and two alloplastic grafts, and a group that received no treatment (blood clot). The extraction...

All organs of the immune system are innervated and almost all neurotransmitter receptors are present on immune cells. We studied
the effects of sympathetic innervation in the development of amebic liver abscess (ALA) in rats. Our results showed that lack of
sympathetic innervation promote a decrease in size of ALA. We found scarce amoebas, increased the number of neutrophils and a
few collagen fibers surrounding the abscess, meanwhile in control group, we observed abscesses areas with typical necrosis
including trophozoites and neutrophils. Macrophages were differentially distributed surrounding abscess area in control and
vehicle groups, but equally located in and outside of the abscesses in sympathectomized rat. No significant differences were

Amniotic fluid exerts a neurotrophic influence on fetal neurodevelopment via the ERK/GSK-3
pathway
Provedor de dados: 48
Autores: Jang,Yongwoo; Kim,Eun-Kyung; Shim,Won-Sik; Song,Ki-Min; Kim,Sung Min.
BACKGROUND: The fetus is surrounded by the amniotic fluid (AF) contained by the amniotic sac of the pregnant female. The
AF is directly conveyed to the fetus during pregnancy. Although AF has recently been reported as an untapped resource containing
various substances, it remains unclear whether the AF could influence fetal neurodevelopment. RESULTS: We used AF that was
extracted from embryos at 16 days in pregnant SD rat and exposed the AF to the neural cells derived from the embryos of same
rat. We found that the treatment of AF to cortical neurons increased the phosphorylation in ERK1/2 that is necessary for fetal
neurodevelopment, which was inhibited by the treatment of MEK inhibitors. Moreover, we found the subsequent inhibition of
glycogen synthase...

Background The surveillance of Vibrio parahaemolyticus in the Chilean coast has been mainly performed by multiplex PCR
amplification of three different hemolysin genes, which are specie-specific virulence factors. These genes are also employed in the
determination of V. parahaemolyticus pathogenic load in seafood and for characterization of pathogenic strains associated to
diarrhea cases in human. During environmental surveillance that we performed every summer, we occasionally observed a
thermolabile hemolysin (tlh) PCR product of a slightly smaller size than expected, which was coincident with low loads of V.
parahaemolyticus in the environment. In order to understand this observation, we probed the specificity of tlh primers for the
detection of V....

A highly efficient somatic embryogenesis system and subsequent plant regeneration of chinaberry (Melia azedarach L.) was
developed. Plants were regenerated from indirect somatic embryogenesis induction. Novel features of this improved protocol,
include: a) Embryogenic callus induction with no addition of 2, 4-D in the culture media; b) Somatic embryos differentiation was
achieved by using high concentration of cytokinins (BAP 10 mg/L) and adenine; c) 100% conversion of somatic embryos to plants
was practically obtained and 100% of plants survived under greenhouse conditions; d) Addition of putrescine improved somatic
embryos germination. The amount of somatic embryos produced by the pathway of indirect somatic embryogenesis was 447 per

Integration of the Chilean domestic economy into international markets has created the need to incorporate more technology,
information, and management tools and to generate better entrepreneurial skills at the farm level. These changes require the
development of strategic capabilities and farmer changes in attitude. The goal for farmers is to be more prepared for the decision-
making process and to have adequate evaluation and control systems to face the complexity of the farm business. The literature
suggests that using management tools positively correlates with profits and concludes that management skills are positively
related to farmers' well-being. Survey information on 211 farmers from central and southern Chile was used to estímate a probit

This study analyzed the physical characteristics, number of seeds per kilogram, seed weight, germination characteristics,
germination percentage, germination energy, germination period and the germination vigor of sweet chestnut seeds from two
forest plantations in the Los Ríos region of Chile. No significant differences were found in any of the characteristics related to the
collection zone. Following the international classification systems for seeds of this species, the values of the physical
characteristics allow us to classify these seeds as a small caliber or "chestnut". The values of the germination characteristics
(>80%) demonstrate a good germination for chestnut seeds of forest origin.

Acromioglenoid Angle (AA) of Chinese patients. The baseline was defined as the line that connected the superior and inferior
osseous margins of the glenoid cavity. In order to calculate the AI, the distance from the baseline to the lateral margin of the
acromion was measured and then divided by the distance from the baseline to the lateral aspect of the humeral head. The AA was
defined as the angle formed by the intersecting line drawn tangent to the sclerotic line of the acromion undersurface and the

Mastic, one of the best natural varnishes, is frequently used as protective and finishing layer or as component of oleo-resinous
media in paintings, both in the past and currently. However, this resin is affected by complex deterioration processes which can
change its characteristics and thus the visual aspect of works of art. The alteration processes caused by radiation have been widely
studied, but there is a lack of information on the biodeterioration of this natural product. In this paper, fungi from collections as
well as from oil paintings of the Fine Arts Museum of Granada (Spain) were inoculated onto slides covered with mastic. The

Provedor de dados: 85
Autores: Liu,M; Liang,Z-W; Huang,L-H; Wang,M-M; Yang,H-Y.
Saline-sodic stress is a major abiotic constraint responsible for rice (Oryza sativa L.) yield reductions in Northeast China. The rice
root system is crucial for yield development, and it is usually recognized as the key for improving future crop productivity.
However, most of the saline-sodic soils in these areas contain high levels of soluble Na2CO3 and NaHCO3, which results in a
high pH (&gt;8.5), clay dispersion, soil swelling, and overall poor soil physical properties. Isolation, washing and
measurement of the rice crown roots is highly time-demanding in this kind of soil. Our aim was to explore whether differences in
shoot characters could be reliable indicators, and a low cost and easy method for estimating crown root numbers in rice. In this...

Provedor de dados: 41
Autores: Benedetto,Juan L.; Cech,Norma.
Rhynchonelliformean brachiopods from the Arenig outer-ramp carbonate facies exposed at the Guandacol-Gualcamayo
depocenter (northern Precordillera basin) include the new species Orthidium guandacolensis , Taffia ( Chaloupskia ) minima and
Leptella ( Petroria ) ventrocristata . Associated taxa are Archaeorthis sp., Ffynnonia sp. and Tritoechia ( Tritoechia ) sp. The
overlying basinal black shales (Gualcamayo Formation) have yielded Pelonomia ? sp. On the basis of the age of Ffynnonia
occurrences in western Gondwana it is suggested that this genus migrated from the Famatina back-arc basin to the open platform
waters of the northern Precordillera basin and then to shallower water settings of the carbonate ramp located to the south (in
present coordinates)....

An Unusual Anatomic Variation of the Jugular Foramen with Doubled Posterior Condylar Canal
Provedor de dados: 77
Autores: Kapakin,Samet.
A case of unusual anatomical variation of the jugular foramen (JF) with doubled posterior condylar canal (PCC) is reported.
According to the presence of bridging, the JF can be defined as Type I (one septation, two compartments) on the right side and
Type IV (three septations, four compartments) on the left side. The dome of the jugular fossa is present on the right, absent on the
left. The jugular foramen shows a canal-like structure with an external and an internal opening. The lengths of the longest and
widest axes of the JFs are measured as 21.93 x 16.56 mm on the right and 16.75 x 15.14 mm on the left side. The right JF is larger.
The PCC is doubled on the right side and there is only one on the left side. It is essential not only to know compartments...

An updated analysis of the distribution of cites-listed peruvian carnivores for conservation priorities
Provedor de dados: 81
Autores: Hurtado,Cindy M; Pacheco,Víctor; Fajardo,Úrsula; Uturunco,Angie.
Species in the Order Carnivora are susceptible to habitat fragmentation, deforestation, and climate change because of their
medium to large size, large spatial requirements, and other species-specific requirements, providing challenges to conservation
and management. Understanding their distributions and occurrence in the face of these threats is crucial for conservation. Peru has
21 carnivore species regulated by the CITES Convention (61.8% of all Peruvian carnivore species). The aims of this project were:
a) to generate distribution maps of Peruvian carnivores listed by CITES, b) to describe their distribution by ecoregions, c) to
describe changes in species richness through time, and d) to identify species and areas in need of further research and...

El uso de macroinvertebrados bentónicos como indicadores biológicos es de larga tradición en los países desarrollados y son
incorporados en todas las evaluaciones de calidad ecológica de sistemas fluviales. En América Latina estos estudios son menos
frecuentes y las normativas para la protección de los recursos acuáticos recién comienzan a elaborarse, como es el caso de Chile,
dejando abierta la posibilidad al uso de criterios biológicos. El presente estudio realiza una adaptación de índices bióticos (IBE,
BMWP, IBF y SIGNAL) los que son aplicados y comparados en una cuenca mediterránea de Chile, el río Chillan. Los resultados
muestran el mismo patrón de comportamiento para todos los índices, definiendo áreas en buen estado y otras fuertemente

El estado morfo funcional del tracto genital de las ovejas hembra es determinado por las hormonas sexuales, las que actúan a
través de receptores específicos. Éstos regulan la expresión de numerosas proteínas comprometidas en el desarrollo del
endometrio. Posiblemente, el desempeño reproductivo de diferentes razas de ovejas podría estar determinado por la expresión
diferencial de los receptores. El objetivo del presente estudio fue analizar la presencia de receptores de estrógenos (RE) y
progesterona (RP) en el endometrio de ovejas prepúberes y en ciclo, de las razas Romney Mash y Araucana. La histología del
endometrio se realizó en cortes de 5 um teñidos con hematoxilina y eosina. La presencia de ambos receptores se detectó mediante

La Terminología Anatómica Internacional (TAI) es la consecuencia de siglos de trabajo científico tendientes a unificar los
términos para denominar a las estructuras anatómicas del cuerpo humano y facilitar la comunicación entre la comunidad
científica. Sin embargo, su uso en la literatura no se ha aplicado por completo. El objetivo de esta investigación fue analizar la
bibliografía en relación a la correcta implementación de los términos referentes al ligamento estilomandibular y al rafe
pterigomandibular. Se realizó una revisión en libros de anatomía y artículos científicos relacionados. Se encontraron diferencias en
cuanto a los términos usados para referirse tanto al ligamento estilomandibular y al rafe pterigomandibular, como a las estructuras

Las úlceras por presión son las complicaciones secundarias más comunes a una lesión medular, las cuales ponen en riesgo tanto la
salud como la vida de quienes las padecen. Las úlceras por presión más comunes en lesionados medulares aparecen en la región
pélvica, principalmente en las tuberosidades isquiáticas (TI's). Una estrategia usada en la clínica es medir la presión generada
entre el paciente y la superficie donde se encuentra para evaluar el riesgo que representa dicha superficie para el desarrollo de
úlceras por presión sin embargo, este tipo de mediciones superficiales no garantizan que la presión en los tejidos internos
subyacentes a prominencias óseas sea inocua. Con el fin de estudiar los mecanismos de formación de úlceras por presión, se...

Luego de la ingesta, el epitelio del intestino delgado está encargado de asimilar grandes cantidades de nutrientes, como
aminoácidos, glúcidos y ácidos grasos. Las proteínas solubles que unen lípidos cumplirían un rol determinante en este proceso,
sobre todo protegiendo la integridad del tejido contra el efecto simil-detergente de los ácidos grasos provenientes de la dieta. En
enterocitos se expresan dos proteínas que unen ácidos grasos de cadena larga, IFABP y LFABP, para las cuales no se conocen bien

Los parásitos helmintos producen y secretan una gran variedad de proteínas que unen lípidos (LBPs, del inglés lipid binding
proteins) que podrían participar en la obtención de nutrientes tales como ácidos grasos y colesterol desde el hospedador.
Asimismo, se postula que las LBPs podrían intervenir en la regulación de la respuesta inmune del hospedador. Conocer más
acerca de las estructuras de estas proteínas, así como de sus interacciones con ligandos y membranas, es claramente pertinente
para comprender las interacciones parásito-hospedador que ellas pudieran mediar. Por otra parte, dichos estudios permitirán

En el Holoceno marino de Tierra del Fuego los quitones representan una fracción menor dentro de las asociaciones de moluscos,
principalmente formadas por bivalvos y gastrópodos. En este trabajo se analizan las razones de su escasa abundancia relativa. El
análisis de sus atributos tafonómicos y paleontológicos indica que la condición tafonómica de una placa de quitón es el resultado
de una combinación de factores biológicos, ecológicos y ambientales. Se concluye que los quitones constituyen buenos
indicadores paleoecológicos y paleoambientales, ya que mantienen fidelidad ecológica respecto a las paleocomunidades de las
cuales derivan, y también permiten evaluar los procesos post-mortem ocurridos hasta su descubrimiento.

Analysis of rhythmic variance - ANORVA. A new simple method for detecting rhythms in biological
time series
Provedor de dados: 48
Autores: Celec,Peter.
Cyclic variations of variables are ubiquitous in biomedical science. A number of methods for detecting rhythms have been
developed, but they are often difficult to interpret. A simple procedure for detecting cyclic variations in biological time series and
quantification of their probability is presented here. Analysis of rhythmic variance (ANORVA) is based on the premise that the
variance in groups of data from rhythmic variables is low when a time distance of one period exists between the data entries. A
detailed stepwise calculation is presented including data entry and preparation, variance calculating, and difference testing. An
example for the application of the procedure is provided, and a real dataset of the number of papers published per day in...

The FecB mutation in the BMPR1B gene and the G6, G7 and G8 mutations in the GDF9 gene have been documented in Booroola
Merino sheep breeds. These mutations have all been identified in several ovine breeds, such as Belclare, Cambridge. Blackbelly
hairy sheep breed, which is well adapted to tropical climates due to its African origin, have 2 to 3 lambs per litter, corresponding
to a high prolificacy for a tropical breed. The objective of this investigation was to identify mutations in the cDNA of the
BMPR1B and GDF9 genes of 20 Blackbelly ewes selected for their prolificacy (two or more lambs by birth). The results of this
study indicate the absence of mutations in these genes from the Blackbelly breed. However, it is important to analyze the 3' end

Echolocation is characteristic of bats of the suborder Microchiroptera. Though recent studies of echolocation calis in Latin
America have generated significant advances in knowledge about distribution, habitat use and ecology of bats, the recording and
analysis of bat calis is barely known in Chile. As a first step in studies on the ecology of the endemic Chilean myotis bat (Myotis
chiloensis), we carried out morphometric measures and analyzed echolocation calis in a rural site near Pucón (39°15'S 17°W) in
the Araucanía Region of southern Chile. During January 2009, we obtained 22 records from captured and 75 records from fiying
individuals. The analysis of calis in searching phase showed that the terminal frequency for this species is 43.4 ±1.2 kHz, with...

Xanthomonas axonopodis pathovar citri (Xac) causes bacterial citrus canker, a serious disease of most citrus species.
Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc) is the causal agent of black rot disease in cruciferous plants. In Xcc, cell-cell
signaling is mediated by diffusible signal factor (DSF). Synthesis of DSF depends on RpfB and RpfF. DSF perception and signal
transduction have been suggested to involve a two-component system comprising RpfC and RpfG. It has been proposed that these
proteins participate in a signal transduction system linking changes in the environment to the synthesis of DSF and the expression
of virulence genes. Although the cluster of the rpf genes in Xac has synteny with the corresponding cluster in Xcc, two genes
(rpfH and...

Analysis of the nuclear localization signal of TRF1 in non-small cell lung cancer
Provedor de dados: 48
Autores: JIAN,HU; LI,SUN; LU-MING,WANG; SU-JUN,JIANG.
Several studies revealed a similar down-regulation of telomeric repeat binding factor 1 (TRF1) in tumors. We have previously
reported the TRFl expression levels were down-regulation in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The regulation of TRFl
localization is proposed to be important for the function and expression. The nuclear localization signal (NLS) and nuclear export
signal (NES) are often important clues to localization of protein. The objective of the present study was to investigate the NLS and
NES of TRFl in NSCLC patients. Thirty (30) patients with NSCLCs had undergone radical operations in The First Affiliated
Hospital, College of Medicine, Zhejiang University. DNA sequences of NLSs and NESs were amplified by PCR. The PCR

This document is a description of the macroscopic functional anatomy of the ulna bony prominences in the White-footed Tamarin
(Saguinus leucopus), a neotropical endemic, and monotypic primate of Colombia. Few studies have been conducted on its
anatomy, and thus its ulnar morphology, an essential element for this animal's quadrupedal arboreal locomotion, remains
unknown. This study is based on eight specimens, fixed in formalin at 10 % whose ulnas were extracted in order to describe the
main bony prominences along with muscular and ligamentous fixation functions. These elements of the locomotor apparatus and
the multiple anatomical contours of the ulna of the White-footed Tamarin, exhibit characteristics for positional and articular
adjustment with other...

The anatomical variation of the major pectoral muscles is infrequent, namely the agenesis of the pectoralis major muscle due to
the morpho-functional alterations it causes. On the other hand, he presence of -supernumerary - pectoral muscles is not common
and its physiological, clinical or surgical importance will depend on the stage of its development. The important aspect is that
these muscles, while crossing the anterior wall of the axila and inserting in the humerus, may confuse or difficult surgical access
to the content of the axillary fossa. Pectoralis tertius muscles were found in two dissected cadavers at the Topographic Anatomy of

Root anatomical responses to water deficit are diverse and regulation of water uptake strongly depends on plant anatomy. The
ancestors of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) cultivars are the wild common beans. Because wild beans adapt and survive
well in theon atural environment, it is hypothesized that wild common bean roots are less affected than those of domesticated
beans at low substrate water potential (&#968;W). A wild common bean accession from Chihuahua Mexico and cv. Bayomex

Anatomy and development of the bony inner ear in the woolly opossum, Caluromys philander
(Didelphimorphia, Marsupialia)
Provedor de dados: 81
Autores: Sánchez-Villagra,Marcelo R.; Schmelzle,Thomas.
The ontogenetic changes of the skeletal tissue of the vestibular and cochlear system of Caluromys philander were investigated
using CT scans of an adult skull and 3D reconstructions of histological serial sections of three pouch-youngs. The bony labyrinth
of C. philander differs in several aspects from what has been reported for other marsupials. Some of the proportions of the
semicircular canals (SC) are probably characteristic of arboreal as opposed to terrestrial species. Several significant changes in the
SCs shape occur postnatally. The most remarkable difference among stages is the different height of the anterior SC and posterior
SC in relation to the common crus. In the adult the posterior arm of the lateral SC and the inferior arm of the posterior...

Autores: Malashetty,Vijaykumar B; Sonar,A; Patil,Saraswati B.
Calotes versicolor, collected during peak breeding and nonbreeding season were used for the study of anatomy and
histophysiology of pituitary gland. In C. versicolor the pituitary gland is small compact mass attached to the hypothalamus by a
delicate stalk. It is of two basic units, adenohypophysis and neurohypophysis. The adenohypophysis includes pars distalis (PD)
and pars intermedia (PI). The pars tuberalis (PT) which is usually reduced in reptiles, is absent in C. versicolor. The
neurohypophysis is composed of median eminence (MI) and neural lobe or pars nervosa (PN). The anterior PD is rich acidophils
than the posterior PD during breeding season. These cells are differentiated as A1 and A2 cells. The A1 cells are erythrosinophilic
and stained purple...

Facial palsy, parotid diseases and others are a relatively common clinical condition with a variety of causes. Irrespective of its
etiology, facial palsy always represents a very serious problem for the patient. Parotid gland diseases also are very common
occurrence. In this particular case, the knowledge of surgical anatomy of the facial nerve and its correlations with the parotid
gland is very important for an adequate preservation in the cases of surgery of benign and malignant diseases of the parotid gland.
Although the surgical anatomy of the facial nerve has been well documented, the concept of surgical treatment for parotid tumors,
facial palsy (neurorraphy techniques) and submandibular surgical approach are rarely challenged now.

The surgical treatment of breast cancer has been enhanced throughout the years in order to offer oncologically safer and more
effective results with lower esthetic impact and fewer sequelae. The lymphedema of the upper limb is still an iatrogenic result of
great incidence and morbidity after this treatment. A possible existence of independent breast and upper limb lymphatic pathways
has become the issue of many researchers willing to minimize its occurrence. This review aims to compare the lymphatic
pathways in the axilla described by traditional anatomy books and recently published articles about Axillary Reverse Mapping

The vomeronasal organ (VNO) is a tubular chemoreceptory organ which detects environmental pheromones and is essential for
mammalian normal reproductive activity. A sensitive chemoreceptory neuroepithelium lines the concave VNO wall and the
opposite, convex wall is lined by a seudostratified, receptor-free epithelium. The secretion of the Jacobson glands (JG)
-tubuloacinary glands lying in the lamina propia of the VNO - is essential for pheromones contacting vomeronasal organ
chemoreceptors. Tubuloacinary glands lying in the connective tissue of the nasal septum mucosa (Bowman glands), can be
classified as ventral and dorsal, according to their location. Positivity to PAS and Alcyan blue reactions and androgen receptor

Essential hypertension is considered a multifactorial trait resulting from a combination of environmental and genetic factors. The
angiotensin II type 1 receptor mediates the vasoconstrictor and growthpromoting effects of Ang II. The A1166C polymorphism of
the AT1 receptor gene may be associated with cardiovascular phenotypes, such as high arterial blood pressure, aortic stiffness, and
increased cardiovascular risk. We investigated the association between this A1166C polymorphism and hypertension in hypertense

Ecological conditions in breeding and non-breeding areas of migrant birds have been linked to their annual survival and
production of young, but the role of stopover sites is under-appreciated. Through banding studies and censuses along the flyway
from Tierra del Fuego to the Canadian Arctic, the drastic decline in 2000-2001 of Red Knots (Calidris canutus rufa) population
summering in southern South America in the northern winter was shown to be related to the overharvesting of horseshoe crabs

Provedor de dados: 77
Autores: Mehmet,O. C; Bahar,O. C; Pasaoglu,Ilhan.
Left internal thoracic artery (LITA) has increased importance and common use in coronary bypass grafting because of long-term
better patency rate and improvement in both the duration and quality of survival of patients. LITA is a branch of the first part of
the subclavian artery. We report a case in which the LITA originated from the second left intercostal artery. A 71-year-old man
with a history of angina pectoris for 1 month was admitted to the hospital because of progressive increase in anginal symptoms.
During the operation, it was noted that the LITA originated from the second intercostal artery. LITA used as a free graft. LITA was
anastomosed to the left anterior descending coronary artery. He was free of symptoms 4 weeks after operation. To our...

Coronary anomalies are a group of congenital disorders. Most of the coronary anomalies are asymptomatic and benign but may
cause myocardial ischemia and sudden death. Some of them are dangerous if they associate with other heart diseases. One of the
congenital coronary anomalies is anomalous origin of the circumflex branch from the right coronary artery that is a rare congenital
anomaly. We present a case of a 61-year-old man with history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus and hyperlipidemia. The coronary
angiography reveals a circumflex branch from the right coronary artery.

Morphine is often used in cancer pain and postoperative analgesic management but induces respiratory depression. Therefore,
there is an ongoing search for drug candidates that can antagonize morphine-induced respiratory depression but have no effect on
morphine-induced analgesia. Acetylcholine is an excitatory neurotransmitter in central respiratory control and physostigmine
antagonizes morphine-induced respiratory depression. However, physostigmine has not been applied in clinical practice because it
has a short action time, among other characteristics. We therefore asked whether donepezil (a long-acting acetylcholinesterase
inhibitor used in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease) can antagonize morphine-induced respiratory depression. Using the...

of these peptides seem to be much wider than suspected. In fact, novel classes of peptides with varying chemical
propertiescontinue to be isolated from different vertebrate and invertebrate species, as well as from bacteria. To the early
characterized peptides, mostly cationic in nature, anionic peptides, aromatic dipeptides, processed forms of oxygen-binding

Colored potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L.) provide a natural source of phytochemicals that help reduce the risk of diseases.
However, there is a lack of information on the degree of variation of the antioxidant activity and polyphenolic contents of these
native potatoes. Thus, the antioxidant activity (AA) and total phenolic content (TPC) of native Chilean potatoes were determined.
Twelve potato landrace clones collected from established cultivations on Chiloe Island and Valdivia were selected. Total phenolic
content and AA were compared with two commercial varieties, Shepody and Desirée. Total phenolic content was determined by
the Folin-Ciocalteu method, and &#946;-carotene bleaching was used to compare AA. The TPC varied in the peeled potato

It is possible to incorporate a lot of natural antioxidants into the human organism by consuming berries which can prevent diseases
generated by the action of free radicals. Antioxidants neutralize free radicals and thus protect the organism from the oxidative
damage of lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. Berries stand out as one of the richest sources of antioxidant phytonutrients among
various fruits and vegetables. The objective of this research was to determine antioxidant capacity (AC), total anthocyanins (TA),
and total phenols (TP) of wild and cultivated berries in different localities of La Araucanía and Los Ríos Regions in Chile. These
parameters were analyzed by using the free radical 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl hydrate (DPPH) method,...

Flavonols are polyphenolic secondary plant metabolites that are present in varying levels in commonly consumed fruits,
vegetables and beverages. Flavonols have long held an interest for nutritionists, which has increased following a Dutch study in
the early 1990s showing that dietary intake of flavonols was inversely correlated with the incidence of coronary heart disease.
The main factors that have hindered workers in the field of flavonol research are (i) the accurate measurement of these compounds
in foods and biological samples, and (ii) a dearth of information on their absorption and metabolism. This review aims to highlight
the work of the authors in attempting to clarify the situation. The sensitive and selective HPLC procedure to identify and...

This study evaluated the antiulcer activity of an ethanolic extract of Encholirium spectabile (ES-EtOH) by using different standard
experimental models of induced acute gastric ulceration. ES-EtOH (100 mg/kg p.o) protected the gastric mucosa against
ulceration that was induced by absolute ethanol (53%), ethanol/HCl (75 %), ibuprofen (52 %) and ischemia/reperfusion (43 %). It
also restored catalase activity and non-protein sulfhydryl group concentration in the gastric wall of mice that had been treated with
ethanol. The pre-treatment of mice with N-nitro-L-arginine (70 mg/kg i.p.) abolished the protective activity of ES-EtOH, which

The Maxi-chloride channel was the first ion channel described by electrophysiological methods in placenta. Because it is difficult
to access a complex epithelium such as the placenta for electrophysiological procedures, the studies of ion channels from placental
membranes have been performed only very recently. It was only in 1993 that a direct demonstration of a high-conductance
chloride channel in apical membranes of intact trophoblastic epithelium was mentioned, and two years later, the description of this
channel was reported from purified placental apical membranes reconstituted into artificial lipid membranes suitable for patch-

CG 10-248 (3,4-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-9-chloro-2H-naphtho&#091;1,2b&#093;pyran- 5,6-dione; CG-NQ), a b-
lapachone analogue, modified the ultrastructure of rat hepatocytes, as demonstrated by light and electron microscopy. After 4 h
incubation with 100 µM CG-NQ, the following effects were observed: (a) nuclear chromatin condensation; (b) chromatin
fragmentation; (c) displacement of mitochondria, concentrated around the nucleus; (d) disruption or expansion of mitochondrial
outer or inner membranes, respectively; (e) displacement and alteration of endoplasmic reticulum (rough and smooth); (f)
decrease of microvilli; (g) blebbing of plasma membrane and production of apoptotic bodies formed by folding of plasma

Autores: López-Herrera,A.; Ruiz-Sáenz,J.; Góez,Y.P.; Zapata,W.; Velilla,P.A.; Arango,A.E.; Urcuqui-Inchima,S.
To determine whether fibroblasts from Blanco Orejinegro cattle, exhibit any level of resistance to infection against vesicular
stomatitis virus (VSV) serotypes Indiana (VSV-I) or New Jersey (VSVNJ), 30 fibroblast cultures were phenotyped to evaluate
their resistance/susceptibility. Thirty three % of Blanco Orejinegro fibroblast cultures were classified as very resistant, 50% as
resistant, and 17% as susceptible to VSV-I infection, whereas 20% were classified as very resistant, 50% as resistant and 30% as
susceptible to VSV-NJ infection. Therefore, there appears to be a large variation in phenotypic polymorphism among the
fibroblasts to infection by VSV. To elucidate the mechanisms responsible for this diversity, we searched for a possible

Background: Infection of the Fallopian tubes (FT) by Neisseria gonorrhoeae (Ngo) can lead to acute salpingitis, an inflammatory
condition resulting in damage primarily to the ciliated cells, with loss of ciliary activity and sloughing of the cells from the
epithelium. Recently, we have shown that Ngo infection induced apoptosis in FT epithelium cells by a TNF-alpha dependent
mechanism that could contribute to the cell and tissue damage observed in gonococcal salpingitis. Aim: To investigate the
apoptosis-related genes expressed during apoptosis induction in cultured FT epithelial cells infected in vitro by Ngo. Materials and
Methods: In the current study, we used cDNA macroarrays and real time PCR to identify and determine the expression levels of...

Auxin and insulin promote Zea mays embryo growth, induce S6 ribosomal protein (S6rp) phosphorylation, and promote specific
protein synthesis. The objective of this research was to test a possible cross-talk between insulin and auxin transduction pathways
in Z. mays coleoptiles, typical auxin target tissues. Auxin and insulin produced differential quantitative and qualitative stimulation
of cytoplasmic and ribosomal protein phosphorylation, and specific patterns of de novo synthesized cytoplasmic proteins. In
addition, insulin induced S6rp phosphorylation was strongly inhibited by rapamycin, indicating target of rapamycin (TOR) kinase
participation; auxin-induced S6rp phosphorylation was insensitive to this inhibitor. Phosphatidic acid (PA), a second...

Autores: Ramin,Hosseini; Mulligan,Bernard J.
Changes in the DNA content and organisation of senescing rice cell cultures (Taipei 309) were studied, using PCR and Southern
blot analyses. A mitochondrial gene (coxII), a plastid gene (psaA) and a nuclear DNA maker (RG64) were analysed. The
amplification of mitochondrial (mt), plastid and nuclear DNA produced the expected fragments, indicating that there were still
some intact organelles and nuclei in the senescing rice cells. However, in plastid and nuclear DNA, changes in the number and
size of the PCR products were observed. Southern blot analysis revealed that mt and nuclear DNA contents declined, but plastid
DNA content remained relatively the same throughout the senescence.

Applying a bioeconomic optimal control model to charcoal production: the case of slash-and-burn
agriculture in Mexico
Provedor de dados: 118
Autores: Arrocha,Fernando; Villena,Mauricio G.
This paper analyzes the relationship between rural poverty and forest land management for the case of charcoal production under
slash-and-burn agriculture. An optimal control model is used to determine how a representative household makes decisions about
the allocation of labor and about the forest areas to exploit. In turn, these decisions affect the renewable resource base available to
the community. The proposed optimal control model for charcoal production is based on the Pascual and Barbier (2007) model of
slash-and-burn agriculture. This theoretical model is calibrated with data from the community of Chunkanán, Campeche, Mexico.

One of the fungal pathogens that causes more agriculture damage is Botrytis cinerea. Botrytis is a constant threat to crops because
the fungus infects a wide range of host species, both native and cultivated. Furthermore, Botrytis persists on plant debris in and on
the soil. Some of the most serious diseases caused by Botrytis include gray mold on vegetables and fruits, such as grapes and
strawberries. Botrytis also causes secondary soft rot of fruits and vegetables during storage, transit and at the market. In many
plant-pathogen interactions, resistance often is associated with the deposition of callose, accumulation of autofluorescent
compounds, the synthesis and accumulation of salicylic acid as well as pathogenesis-related proteins. Arabidopsis...

BACKGROUND: Big-leaf mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla King) is the woody species with the highest economic value in
Latin America. Currently, it is subject to intensive exploitation, diminishing its natural populations. Due to this decline, the species
is a preferred species for reforestation and establishment of commercial tropical plantations. Mycorrhizal symbiosis is a biotic
factor scarcely studied in the ecology of this species. Therefore, the objective of this research was to identify the diversity of
arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) species associated with the rhizosphere of seedlings and mature trees of big-leaf mahogany
growing in its natural habitat, a tropical rain forest in Los Tuxtlas, Veracruz, Mexico. Soil samples from a 20-cm depth were...

Organic biomarkers were used to investigate the influence of seasonal changes in oxygenation and water chemistry on the
distribution of archaea and bacteria in the water column and surface sediments of the continental shelf off central Chile (ca. 36°S),
an area influenced by seasonal upwelling and the development of an oxygen minimum zone. We were interested in establishing if
occurrence of archaea and bacteria responds to oxygenation and water chemistry for which we analyzed archaeal isoprenoid (i)
and bacterial branched (br) glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs). Our results combined with molecular data from a year
round observational program at the same sampling site and depths indicatives the occurrence and dominance of the marine pelagic

The influence of tropical lowland migrations on the emergence of cultural change in the Central Andes has been postulated in
general terms since the beginning of last century (Tello 1929). Archeological and molecular genetic evidence, particularly
agriculture of tropical cultigens and ancient mtDNA haplogroup typing in northern Chile, suggest a chronologically more precise
relationship between both regions. We test in this article the hypothesis that the process of cultural transformation of prehistoric
populations living on the coast and the desert valleys of northern Chile can be partially linked to gene flow from the eastern slopes
of the Andes and/or from the tropical lowlands during the Late Archaic / Formative periods (ca. 3,500-2,000 B.P.).

BACKGROUND: Accumulating evidence indicates that reactive oxygen species (ROS) are an important etiological factor for the
induction of dermal papilla cell senescence and hair loss, which is also known alopecia. Arctiin is an active lignin isolated from
Arctium lappa and has anti-inflammation, anti-microbial, and anti-carcinogenic effects. In the present study, we found that arctiin
exerts anti-oxidative effects on human hair dermal papilla cells (HHDPCs). RESULTS: To better understand the mechanism, we
analyzed the level of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced cytotoxicity, cell death, ROS production and senescence after arctiin
pretreatment of HHDPCs. The results showed that arctiin pretreatment significantly inhibited the H2O2-induced reduction in
cell...

Are levels of digestive enzyme activity related to the natural diet in passerine birds?
Provedor de dados: 48
Autores: Ramírez-Otárola,Natalia; Sabat,Pablo.
Digestive capabilities, such as the rates nutrient hydrolysis and absorption, may affect energy intake and ultimately feeding
behavior. In birds, a high diversity in gut biochemical capabilities seems to support the existence of a correlation between the
morphology and physiology of the intestinal tract and chemical features of the natural diet. However, studies correlating the
activity of digestive enzymes and the feeding habits at an evolutionary scale are scarce. We investigated the effect of dietary habits
on the digestive physiological characteristics of eight species of passerine birds from Central Chile. The Order Passeriformes is a
speciose group with a broad dietary spectrum that includes omnivorous, granivorous and insectivorous species. We...

Áreas de acción en un ensamble de roedores del Desierto del Monte (Mendoza, Argentina)
Provedor de dados: 81
Autores: Corbalán,Valeria E.; Ojeda,Ricardo A.
In the central portion of the Monte desert four small rodent species coexist: Graomys griseoflavus, Akodon molinae, Eligmodontia
typus, and Calomys musculinus . Using the Convex Polygon Method, we assessed the home range of these species at different
habitats and made comparisons among species, and between sexes and different seasons of the year. We found that home range did
not differ among species, but there is a tendency to increase range size as the species corporal size increases. Overlapping of home
range was different at different seasons of the year, probably due to different population densities, but home range size was
constant along the year. Habitat type and sex affect home range only for G. griseoflavus and A. molinae, respectively.

Autores: Cavagnaro,Juan B.; Ponce,María T.; Guzmán,Javier; Cirrincione,Miguel A.
Argentinean Vitis vinifera cultivars although originated from Europe, have clear ampelographic and genotypic differences as
compared with the European cultivars currently used in wine making. In vitro evaluation of salt tolerance has been used in many
species. Our hypothesis was that Argentinean cultivars are more tolerant to salinity than European ones. Three European cultivars,
Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay and four Argentinean cultivars, Cereza, Criolla Chica, Pedro Gimenez and
Torrontes Riojano were tested by in vitro culture. Treatments included: 1) Control, 2) 60 mEq/L of a mixture of three parts of

Ascorbate protects (+)-catechin from oxidation both in a pure chemical system and human plasma
Provedor de dados: 48
Autores: LOTITO,SILVINA B; FRAGA,CESAR G.
We evaluated the interaction between ascorbic acid (AA) and (+)-catechin (CTCH) in potassium phosphate solution, pH 7.4 (PPS)
and in human plasma. In both systems, the oxidation was started by adding 2,2 -azobis-(2-amidinopropane) clorhidrate (AAPH).
The concentrations of AA and CTCH were determined by HPLC using electrochemical detection. In PPS, CTCH was oxidized by
AAPH (50 muM), in either the absence or presence of different initial concentrations of AA (25-200 muM). In the presence of
AA, CTCH depletion was delayed, an effect that was dependent upon the initial concentration of AA. When 100 muM AA was
added after the oxidation had begun, CTCH depletion was arrested for 30 min. The kinetics of AA oxidation by AAPH was also

In the lower-middle Ashgill Cystoid Limestone Formation of the Iberian Chains (NE Spain) twenty one bryozoan genera have
been identified, which belong to the four Stenolaemata orders that were already spread worldwide by the Mid Ordovician:
Cryptostomata, Cyclostomata, Cystoporata and Trepostomata. Five of them: Cyclophaenopora Spjeldnaes, Glauconomella
Bassler, Orbignyella Ulrich and Bassler, Phaenopora Hall and Pseudostictoporella Ross have been identified here for the first time
in the Mediterranean Province. This list increases the number of bryozoan genera known to sixty six, making it the most
diversified group in the region for that period.

Tal vez por haber sido consideradas como simples restos citoplasmáticos de los megacariocitos encargadas únicamente de la
reparación de heridas, las plaquetas han tenido un lugar secundario en cuanto a su estudio e interés en comparación con los otros
componentes celulares de la sangre. Sin embargo, en los últimos 20 años se ha avanzado mucho en el conocimiento de estas
fascinantes células que de a poco han recobrado un lugar destacado dentro de la hematología. A lo largo de este trabajo se han
revisado los aportes más destacados y novedosos acerca del proceso de biogénesis plaquetaria, su regulación por el microambiente
medular y factores humorales, recorriendo desde la generación de megacariocitos hasta la liberación de plaquetas libres.

Asimetría bilateral de la forma de las valvas y posición espacial en matrices del chorito Perumytilus
purpuratus (Lamarck, 1819) (Bivalvia: Mytilidae)
Provedor de dados: 97
Autores: BRIONES,CAROLINA; GUIÑEZ,RICARDO.
De las distintas formas de la asimetría bilateral, la asimetría direccional (AD) ha recibido considerablemente menos atención en la
literatura que la asimetría fluctuante (AF). Si bien existen buenos ejemplos de AD conspicua en algunos grupos de moluscos (e.g.,
Ostreidae y Pectinidae), para otros como los mitílidos la AD no ha sido reportada. En matrices del chorito Perumytilus purpuratus
de tres localidades del intermareal rocoso de Chile norte y central, comparando individuos de los estratos superior e inferior, y
usando dos índices de forma de la valva, reportamos evidencia de AD en relación con la forma de las valvas, tendiendo la derecha
a ser consistentemente más elongada que la valva izquierda. Sin embargo, no solo en estratos inferiores de la...

Autores: Benítez,Hugo A; Parra,Luis E.
La capacidad de un organismo para producir un fenotipo ideal, pese a las perturbaciones encontradas durante su desarrollo, es el
mecanismo causal de la estabilidad del desarrollo (ED). Esta capacidad es utilizada para evaluar variedad de tipos de estrés y la
capacidad genotípica de corregirlos. La herramienta de medición más utilizada para estimar la ED es la asimetría fluctuante (AF),
siendo esta una medida de las pequeñas desviaciones al azar que ocurren entre el lado izquierdo y derecho de rasgos
bilateralmente simétricos. El estudio de AF, por su simplicidad de manejo y rapidez en la obtención de resultados, se ha convertido
en un foco de interés para la biología, y durante los últimos años el aumento en artículos publicados usando AF para evaluar...

Provedor de dados: 69
Autores: Wu,Gaobing; Zhan,Tao; Guo,Yiming; Kumar,Ashok; Liu,Ziduo.
Background: Glycine oxidase (GO), a type of D-amino acid oxidase, is of biotechnological interest for its potential in several
fields. In our previous study, we have characterized a new glycine oxidase (BceGO) from Bacillus cereus HYC-7. Here, a variant
of N336K with increased the affinity against all the tested substrate was obtained by screening a random mutant library of BceGO.
It is observed that the residue N336 is invariable between its homogeneous enzymes. This work was aimed to explore the role of
the residue N336 in glycine oxidase by site-directed mutagenesis, kinetic assay, structure modeling and substrate docking. Results:
The results showed that the affinity of N336H, N336K and N336R increased gradually toward all the substrates, with increase...

Since it was first reported in Brazil in the 1990s, the B biotype of silverleaf whitefly (Bemisia tabaci Genn., Hemiptera:
Aleyrodidae) has been recognized as an important pest in soybeans (Glycine max L.), reducing the productivity of this legume
species in some areas of the country. As an alternative to chemical control, the use of resistant genotypes represents an important
tool for integrated pest management (IPM). This study evaluated the performance of 10 soybean genotypes prior to whitefly
infestation, by testing attractiveness and preference for oviposition in the greenhouse and antibiosis in the laboratory. In a
multiple-choice test, 'IAC-17' was the least attractive to insects. In a no-choice test, 'IAC-17' was the least attractive for egg...

Cereal grain yields have increased worldwide during the 20th century as a consequence of plant breeding, improved cultural
practices and intensive use of inputs. However, there is evidence that there are differences in yield pattern evolution across
countries and cereals. The purpose of this study was to compare trends in the yields of the most commonly produced cereals in
Chile, namely wheat, oat, barley, maize and rice, to identify similarities in trends across crops and to estimate long-term growth
rates in the yields and their changes over time. Data for wheat, barley, oat, rice and maize yields between 1929 and 2009 were

and loss of BRCA function is correlated to sensitivity to DNA crosslinking agents in preclinical models. RESULTS: BRCA2
methylation frequency was 44%, p53 Pro22 allele frequency was 32% and heterozygous frequency of Arg/Pro72 genotype was
60% which could be associated as risk factor for metastasis (p = 0.046 OR = 4.190). Regarding to polymorphism of codon 249 the
frequency of Arg249 allele presented 82% which was considered not statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS: There was not
statistical significance to BRCA2 promoter methylation with any parameters chosen. However, our findings suggest that patients
who present heterozygous...

Autores: Guimarey,Pilar; Darrigran,Gustavo; Damborenea,Cristina; Penchaszadeh,Pablo E.
Limnoperna fortunei is an invasive gonochoristic and byssate freshwater bivalve originary from Southeast Asia. It shows great
adaptive-reproductive ability, so knowledge of the gonadal cycle is an important factor for the prevention and control of this
bioinvasion. This species is highly damaging to natural and human environments. We analyzed the distribution and maturity state
of reproductive follicles in the mantle of both male and females. Male results are not shown but, in general, they followed the
same pattern as that of females. Routine histological techniques included serial longitudinal sections and transversal sections in
three body regions (anterior, middle and psoterior). Oocytes with conspicuous nucleoli were measured on both types of sections...

Autores: Medina-Vogel,Gonzalo; Barros,Macarena; Monsalve,Rene; Pons,Daniel J.
BACKGROUND: Introduced species can have a major negative impact on biodiversity; an example is the American mink, which
was introduced in the 1930s in Patagonia. While there is a consensus that reversing alien mustelids continental scale invasions
remains unfeasible, there is little consensus, given a maximum cost or investment, on the feasibility and efficiency of region-wide
control or eradication. Thus, our goal was to provide information about efficiency for mink control in Patagonia METHODS:
Between January 2009 and February 2013 this study was conducted in ten study sites (4 km to 15 km long) between 39°S to 45°S
latitude. Minks were trapped using cage traps operated by two trappers. We estimated the population density at each study site

Provedor de dados: 97
Autores: BENAVIDES,A. GONZALO; VELOSO,ALBERTO; JIMÉNEZ,PAULINA; MÉNDEZ,MARCO A.
The assimilation efficiency of Bufo spinulosus tadpoles from four localities in Chile was evaluated for two different temperatures
(15 and 25 ºC) and two different diets (low nutritional quality diet (LQD): 22.28 mg g N-1; high nutritional quality diet (HQD):
47.53 mg g N-1) using ash as a marker of digestion. Results showed that geographic origin did not affect assimilation efficiency,
while the relationship observed between temperature and diet quality was significant. Assimilation efficiency was greater for the
HQD when tadpoles were maintained at 15 °C, instead significant differences were not found between diets for tadpoles
maintained at 25 °C. Our results suggest that the effect of temperature on digestive processes is more relevant than its effect...

Resistance to Mal de Río Cuarto (MRC) disease in maize (Zea mays L.) is important in Argentina because the crop area involves a
wide region where the disease is endemic. Molecular marker-assisted selection could be used as an additional selection tool to
enhance precision of the genotype selection for resistance. It demands the identification of informative markers. Microsatellite
(SSR) markers linked to gene(s) associated with resistance to MRC have been reported from previous QTL analyses. These
analyses have been made on linkage maps derived from a relatively early mapping population. In advanced populations, where
highly distinct genotypes are easily classified, discriminant analysis (DA) represents a complementary strategy to marker
identification;...

Type 1 diabetes mellitus (TIDM) is an autoimmune disease characterized by the destruction of pancreatic p cells. Tumor necrosis
factor (TNF) is a pleotropic cytokine with potent immunomodulatory and inflammatory activity. Association studies of TNF
polymorphisms and type 1 diabetes (TIDM) frequently demonstrated TNF involvement with TIDM. Although TNF may play an
important role in the pathogenesis of TIDM, the genetic association of TNF región with the disease has not been conclusive
because of the strong linkage disequilibrium with HLA genes. In this study, we examined two TNF promoter variants (rs 1800629

Atresia of the Coronary Sinus Ostium to the Right Atrium with a Persistent Left Superior Vena Cava
Provedor de dados: 77
Autores: Caetano,Abadio Gonçalves; Ribeiro,Tiago Coelho; Filho,Omar Andrade Rodrigues; Fazan,Valéria Paula Sassoli.
The coronary sinus has lately assumed an important role in the cardiologic clinic once it has been widely used in invasive
procedures of the heart. Commonly, it is used during the electrodes implants for the epimiocardic monitoring of the cardiac
rhythm, through a biventricular pace maker. These invasive procedures are not possible in hearts with an atresic coronary sinus
ostium. In the presence of this anomaly, another may occur: the development of the "Marchal" vein which is a remaining of the
left superior vena cava (LSVC). This happens so that the venous blood from the heart can drain into the right atrium, by a
communication between the LSVC and the left brachiocephalic vein. The presence of a LSVC brings difficulties when performing
an invasive...

At-sea abundance and distribution of skuas and jaegers (Charadriiformes: Stercorariidae) at coastal
waters off central Chile
Provedor de dados: 97
Autores: Simeone,Alejandro; Anguita,Cristóbal; Luna-Jorquera,Guillermo.
BACKGROUND: Skuas and jaegers (Charadriiformes: Stercorariidae) are seabirds breeding at moderate to high latitudes and
some perform extensive post-breeding transequatorial migrations. Most species overwinter and perform significant portions of
their migratory flyways along the Pacific coast of South America, but scant information is available on their at-sea ecology in this
waters. Our aims in this study were to determine: 1) the timing of occurrence and fluctuations in abundance of skua and jaeger
species, 2) their spatial distribution within the coastal zone and 3) at-sea behavior of birds, including flock size and interactions
with other seabird species. RESULTS: Between July 2006 and October 2013, we conducted at-sea bird counts at Valparaiso Bay...

La ausencia congénita de la vena porta hepática es una malformación en extremo rara, fue descrita por primera vez en 1793 por
John Abernethy y a la fecha se han reportado sólo 101 casos. Afecta con mayor frecuencia a mujeres y determina que el drenaje
venoso intestinal sea derivado hacia el territorio de las venas sistémicas. Es también conocida como derivación porto-sistémica
extra hepática congénita (CEPS), por su sigla en inglés, y se asocia a otras alteraciones congénitas,incluyendo anomalías
cardíacas, de las vías biliares, enfermedades metabólicas y retardo mental. En este trabajo presentamos el hallazgo de esta

Autores: Hirzel,Juan; Walter,Ingrid.
Poultry litter (PL) is an organic matter source used as soil amendment. Besides its important nutrient content, it is a cheap
alternative to conventional fertilizers in crop production. The efficient use of PL also helps reduce the environmental problems
normally associated with its disposal near poultry production farms. This article reports the relative effects of PL and conventional
fertilizers on the availability of soil N, P and K, dry matter (DM) production and total nutrient content in silage corn (Zea mays
L.). The field experiment was carried out in a soil derived from volcanic ash (Tipic Melanoxerands) of Central South Chile. Corn
was grown for three seasons (2002-2005) and PL and conventional fertilizers were applied in the first two years. The...

As plantas possuem eficientes mecanismos a fim de se estabelecerem e permanecerem no ambiente. Um desses mecanismo é
capacidade de rebrotamento que algumas espécies apresentam, muitas delas associadas à ambientes propensos à queimadas como
é o caso dos ambientes dos campos rupestres. Nesse trabalho foi avaliado a capacidade e morfologia de rebrotamento pós
distúrbio em duas populações típicas nos campos rupestres da Serra do Cipó, testando a hipótese de que o fogo (agente do
distúrbio) é um agente seletivo dessas espécies e que elas apresentam então esse mecanismo de rebrotamento pós-distúrbio. Para o

Avian influenza viruses produce mainly respiratory and intestinal diseases. Their relevance in the generation of pandemic strains
has led to a large amount of research to understand their distribution in nature, as well as the relations that become established for
the effective transmission among different hosts. Waterfowl have been recognized as their natural reservoir and they play an
important role in the propagation and generation of the diversity of these viruses. The emergence of new influenza viruses with
pandemic potential among the human population (H5N1 of avian origin or recombinant H1N1 with avian segments) point our lack

Banks of microscopic forms and survival to darkness of propagules and microscopic stages of
macroalgae
Provedor de dados: 97
Autores: SANTELICES,BERNABÉ; AEDO,DIEGO; HOFFMANN,ALICIA.
Previous studies have found that the number of species conforming a bank of microscopic forms in tide pools in central Chile
accounted only for half the number of species present in the macroscopic vegetation around the pools. An elemental condition for
survival in these banks is the ability of microscopic forms to tolerate darkness or very low irradiances for extended periods. To test
this ability, spores of 17 green, brown and red algal species, present and absent from the bank, were incubated at different
combinations of irradiances and day lengths. Propagules of 47 % of the species tested (eight species) germinated in total darkness
while the propagules of the other nine species germinated under conditions of very low irradiance (2-10 µmol m-2 s-1). In...

Autores: Campos,Claudia M; Borghi,Carlos E; Giannoni,Stella M; Mangeaud,Arnaldo; Tognelli,Marcelo F.
Locally, mammalian herbivores may have significant effects on the abundance and fitness of plant species. This study focuses on
the interaction between cuises (Microcavia australis-Rodentia-) and creosote bush (Larrea cuneifolia -Zygophyllacea-), which is a
widespread and ecologically dominant evergreen shrub in the Monte Desert of Argentina. Specifically, we examined the
probability of plants being gnawed by cuises in relation to branch diameter and distance to cuis colonies. Additionally, we
assessed the effect of gnawing by cuises on branch condition, production of flowers and fruits and branch survival. In general,
gnawing by cuises negatively affects creosote bush plants. The likelihood of being gnawed is higher for branches of smaller
diameter and in...

This paper presents the use of an effluent derived from two-stage anaerobic digestion of two-phase olive mill solid waste
(OMSW) as a substrate for the production of Chlorella zofingiensis in batch mode. Chlorella zofingiensis when grown
autotrophycally can accumulate significant quantities of valuable carotenoids which are used as an additive in fish and poultry
farming, as colorants in foods and in health care products. It was found that two-phase OMSW previously treated by two-stage
anaerobic digestion and further sterilized may be used as a culture medium for the microalgae Chlorella zofingiensis. Typical
growth curves were obtained using both the above-mentioned anaerobic effluent and a synthetic medium. Total chemical oxygen

ABSTRACT Morphological and anatomical studies comprised leaf venation, histological analysis and epidermal peeling were
carried out on Canavalia rosea (Sw.) DC.). Anatomical studies of the leaf and root determined the presence of cuticle and oil
glands, arrangement of cells and the structure of vascular system. The dorsiventral leaf with pinnate venation and amphistomatic
leaf with paracytic type stomata were embedded below the epidermis. Trichomes and oil glands were also observed on both
adaxial and abaxial surfaces of leaf. Longitudinal sections of the callus showed the existence of meristematic cells, which could
give rise to plant regeneration. In the process of organogenesis, adventitious shoots emerged from leaf and stem explants within 2
months...

Autores: Saavedra,Javier; Silva,Tereza Aparecida; Mora,Freddy; Scapim,Carlos Alberto.
Several studies have confirmed that popcorn (Zea mays L. var. everta) has a narrow genetic basis, which affects the quality of
breeding programs. In this study, we present a genetic characterization of 420 individuals representing 28 popcorn populations
from Brazilian germplasm banks. All individuals were genotyped using 11 microsatellite markers from the Maize Genetics and
Genomics Database. A Bayesian clustering approach via Monte Carlo Markov chains was performed to examine the genetic
differentiation (Fst values) among different clusters. The results indicate the existence of three distinct and strongly differentiated
genetic groups (K = 3). Moreover, the Fst values (calculated among clusters) were significantly different according to Bayesian

Provedor de dados: 97
Autores: VAN DONGEN,WOUTER F.D; LAZZONI,ILENIA; VÁSQUEZ,RODRIGO A.
Research on wild animals often involves the capture and temporary removal of individuals from their territory. Although the acute
effects of such procedures are well understood in terms of stress hormone profiles, their effect on the behaviour of captured
individuals after release is poorly known. Additionally, for socially-monogamous individuals captured whilst breeding, little is
known regarding whether the remaining individual compensates for the temporary loss of its partner and whether offspring
condition or survival ultimately decreases due to any reductions in parental provisioning. We investigated the influence of field-
based experiments requiring temporary adult removal on adult provisioning behaviour and nestling mass in the thorn-tailed

Pepper is an economically important crop in many countries around the world but it is susceptible to many diseases. In Mexico,
diseases caused by bipartite begomoviruses have emerged as important problems in pepper. Several control strategies have been
explored wiht little success; most of them are based on the avoidance of virus transmission and the breeding for resistance. Abiotic
inducers can act at various points in the signaling pathways involved in disease resistance, providing long-lasting, wide-spectrum
resistance. Benzothiadiazole (BTH) shares the property of activating the systemic acquired resistance pathway downstream from
the SA signaling. In this work, resistance to PepGMV infection was induced in pepper plants by activating the SA pathway...

Beyond selection
Provedor de dados: 97
Autores: VARGAS,ALEXANDER O.
It has been argued that the study of natural selection and quantitative genetics should have a central role in evolutionary thinking
and undergraduate teaching in Chile. Extensive operational use of the concept of natural selection may seem consistent with this
argument. However, advances of evolutionary knowledge in independent fields such as phylogenetic analysis, developmental
evolution, and paleontology cannot be ignored. I argue here that the role of natural selection in contemporary evolutionary biology
can be compared to that of Newtonian mechanics in contemporary physics: it can describe a given domain of observations, but it
is insufficient to handle the different sources of evolutionary knowledge. Overemphasis on natural selection as the...

Beyond taxonomy: prospects for understanding morphological diversity in the grasses (Poaceae)
Provedor de dados: 66
Autores: Kellogg,Elizabeth A.
The grass family (Poaceae) is unusually well known taxonomically, with over 10,000 described species. These are characterized
and classified according to a variety of morphological characters, particular those of the inflorescence and the spikelet but also a
wealth of micromorphological and moleculary characters. Much data on the family is accessible electronically. Available
phylogenies have identified 12 major lineages that are classified as subfamilies; within these subfamilies, especially for subfamily
Panicoideae, the phylogeny is becoming increasingly clear. Developmental studies focus on the activity and fate of meristems
throughout the plant, and illustrate how adult morphology arises. Analyses of quantitative trait loci (QTL) verify that some...

Biceps Brachii Muscle Innervation Zone Location in Healthy Subjects Using High-Density Surface
Electromyography
Provedor de dados: 77
Autores: Guzmán,Rodrigo A; Silvestre,Rony A; Arriagada,David A.
Among the sequelae of central nervous system injury is spasticity which is difficult to manage in rehabilitation. Current treatments
consider the administration of the botulinum toxin. However, results have proved highly variable in terms of effectiveness,
attributable to the distance between the injection site and the innervations-zone (IZ). High Density sEMG (HDsEMG) has been
used to gather information about muscle physiology and for location of the IZ. The aim of this study was to characterize the IZ of
the biceps brachii muscle in healthy subjects during isometric contraction. We assessed the biceps brachii muscle of twenty
healthy subjects (n=20) using a 64 surface electrodes matrix. The average location of the IZ was 34% distal to the line between...

Autores: Chaves Neto,Henrique Duque de Miranda; Olate,Sergio; Mazzonetto,Renato; Spagnoli,Daniel B.
Facial involvement in patients with rheumatoid arthritis is variable depending on the type, onset, and duration of the disease. The
treatment of patients with open bite resulting from degenerative changes on the condyles can be a challenge for the surgeon.
Rheumatoid arthritis is a systemic disorder of unknown etiology characterized by chronic inflammation and proliferation of
synovial tissue. Studies showed that patients with rheumatoid arthritis can developed progressive osteoarthrosis that result in gross
radiographic changes in the condyles. With the development of distraction osteogénesis for treatment of mandible hypoplasia a
new chapter has been opened in the surgical management of patients with rheumatoid arthritis associated with skeletal...

Bilateral Origin of the Testicular Arteries from the Lower Polar Accessory Renal Arteries
Provedor de dados: 77
Autores: Panagouli,Eleni; Lolis,Evangelos; Venieratos,Dionysios.
The gonadal arteries (testicular or ovarian arteries) emerge normally from the lateral aspect of the abdominal aorta, a little inferior
to the renal arteries. Several other sites of origin of these arteries have been recorded with the renal and accessory renal arteries
being the most common. In the present case report, the testicular arteries originated from the lower polar accessory renal arteries
in both sides. The testicular veins followed had the usual origin and course, while an accessory renal vein was observed only in
the right side. These anomalies were combined with an abnormal left ureter exiting from the lower pole of the kidney. Only one
male cadaver among 77 adult human cadavers of Caucasian origin presented this set of variations (frequency:...

Bilateral Presence of Axillary Arch Muscle Passing Through the Posterior Cord of the Brachial Plexus
Provedor de dados: 77
Autores: Pillay,Minnie; Jacob,Suja Mary.
The axillary arch can be described as an anomalous muscular slip of latissimus dorsi muscle. In this paper, a rare case of bilateral
axillary arch is reported during routine dissection of the axillary region of a 57-year old male cadaver. On both sides, the axillary
arch muscle took origin from latissimus dorsi and teres major, and passed upwards through the posterior cord of the brachial
plexus, but posterior to the bulk of axillary neurovascular bundle. It then split into two slips: the medial slip was inserted into the
root of the coracoid process, while the lateral slip which was intracapsular, was attached to the lesser tubercle, above the
attachment of subscapularis. The presence of the muscle has important clinical implications, and the position,...

Autores: Ariyo,Olutayo; Shea,John.
We report the association of a persistent median artery, a bifid median nerve with a rare very high origin palmar cutaneous branch,
presenting bilaterally in the upper limb of a 75-year-old female cadaver. The persistent median nerve with a bifid median nerve
has been reported in patients presenting with carpal tunnel syndrome. Reports of this neurovascular anomaly occurring in
association with a high origin palmar cutaneous branch however, are few. This subset of patients is at risk of inadvertent nerve
transection during forearm and wrist surgery. Pre-operative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and high resolution sonography
(HRS) can be used to screen this triad. MRI can reveal if the patient's disability is associated with a persistent median nerve, a...

Autores: Silva,Gonzalo; Rodríguez,J. Concepción; Blanco,Carlos A; Lagunes,Angel.
The insecticidal properties of water-extract of Peumus boldus Molina and its effect on the development cycle and feeding habits of
Spodoptera frugiperda J.E. Smith and Helicoverpa zea Boddie were evaluated under laboratory conditions in concentrations of
0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0, and 8.0% (w/w). Spodoptera frugiperda was the most susceptible with 75% mortality at 7 d at 8% P. boldus
concentration, while H. zea had only 30% mortality. LC50 was 2.31 mL kg-1 for S. frugiperda and 16.05 mL kg¹ for H. zea. When
the extract concentration increased in the diet, larval size and weight, percentage of pupation and number of adults decreased, and
the time required to reach those states was greater. Neonate larvae fed primarily on the diet with the lower extract...

Autores: Kornochalert,Nastee; Kantachote,Duangporn; Chaiprapat,Sumate; Techkarnjanaruk,Somkiet.
Background Treating latex rubber sheet wastewater often leads to the generation of a rotten-egg odor from toxic H2S. To increase
the treatment efficiency and eliminate H2S, purple nonsulfur bacteria (PNSB), prepared by supplementing non-sterile rubber sheet
wastewater (RAW) with fermented pineapple extract (FPE), were used to treat this wastewater under microaerobic light
conditions. The following 3 independent variables: chemical oxygen demand (COD), initial pH and FPE dose were investigated
using the Box-Behnken design to find optimal conditions for stimulating the growth of indigenous PNSB (PNSBsi). Results The
addition of 2.0% FPE into RAW, which had a COD of 2000 mg L- 1 and an initial pH of 7.0, significantly decreased oxidation

Provedor de dados: 48
Autores: AKINPELU,DA; ADEGBOYE,MF; ADELOYE,OA; OKOH,AI.
The in vitro antibacterial activity of crude methanolic extract of the seeds of Garcinia kola was investigated. The extracts
exhibited antibacterial activities with zones of inhibition ranging from 10 mm to 25 mm. The minimum inhibitory concentration of
the diethyl ether fraction was between 0.313 and 5.0 mg/ml, while that of butanol fraction varied from 0.157 to 5.0 mg/ml. The
butanol fraction killed about 77% of Bacillus anthracis and 79% of Escherichia coli cells within 120 min at a concentration of 5.0
mg/ml. Protein leakage from the B. anthracis and E. coli cells when exposed to the butanol and diethyl ether fractions was

Provedor de dados: 97
Autores: SAIZ,FRANCISCO; YATES,LESLIE; NUÑEZ,CARLOS; DAZA,MYRIAM; VARAS,MARIA E; VIVAR,CARLOS.
Uno de los componentes principales de la biodiversidad de los ecosistemas corresponde al complejo plantas hospederas, fitófagos
y organismos que regulan a las poblaciones de fitófagos. El conocimiento de este complejo en la región árida de Chile es escaso,
situación que motiva la presente investigación. Como hipótesis se plantea que a más favorables condiciones ambientales, a mayor
diversidad de plantas hospederas y a mayor contenido de nitrógeno y de agua en los vegetales se sustentará una mayor
biodiversidad de fitófagos, los que, a su vez, sustentarán mayor diversidad de depredadores y de parasitoides. El estudio se realizó
en la II Región del país, mediante un transecto longitudinal, desde la Costa a la Cordillera de los Andes, el que cruza las...

Bioethical aspects of basic research and medical applications of human stem cells
Provedor de dados: 48
Autores: Santos,Manuel J; Ventura-Juncá,Patricio.
The new discoveries, the extraordinary dynamism in human stem cell (SC) research, and the great expectations of the benefits in
clinical treatment of many diseases are on the edge of unparalleled advances in both: 1) the understanding of basic mechanisms of
cell differentiation and development and 2) the translation from basic research to new clinical therapies. Human stem cells are
obtained from different sources, such as embryo, fetal, and adult tissues, in vitro induction (iPS cells) or transdifferentiation. The
evidence that these cells are pluripotent (or multipotent), meaning they have the ability to differentiate into all body tissues or
tissues of the same lineage, raises the possibility that they could regenerate diseased or damaged tissue in...

The objective of this study was to detect the presence of acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs), signal molecules of the quorum
sensing system in biofilm formed by Hafnia alvei strains. It also evaluated the effect of synthetic quorum sensing inhibitors in
biofilm formation. AHLs were assayed using well diffusion techniques, thin layer chromatography (TLC) and detection directly in
biofilm with biomonitors. The extracts obtained from planktonic and sessile cell of H. alvei induced at least two of three monitor
strains evaluated. The presence of AHLs with up to six carbon atoms was confirmed by TLC. Biofilm formation by H. alvei was
inhibited by furanone, as demonstrated by 96-well assay of crystal violet in microtitre plates and by scanning electron
microscopy....

A start-up strategy was presented and evaluated to obtain a well-established biofilm in a gas lift-reactor capable both for the
removal of organic matter and sulphate. Pumice stone was used as material support. The influence of shear forces, given by the
biogas recirculation, the effect of the COD/SO4-2 ratio and the OLRs increase were evaluated on the reactor performance. From
the first stages, cell colonization was observed along with the presence of extracellular polymeric substances. The COD and
sulphate removal was over 70%, for all conditions. The increase of gas flow did not have an adverse effect on biofilm
development even though there was some detachment. Specific methanogenic activity of the biofilm increased along the

Rodríguez et al. (2009) described a new species of the Podonominae genus Parochlus Enderlein. Several aspects of the
abovementioned contribution concerning ecological and biogeographical aspects are discussed. The new temperature range
proposed by the authors for this species is weakly supported by evidence and should be interpreted as tentative. The statement that
this new record occurred in the Monte biogeographic province is erroneous. The type locality of the new species belongs to the
Chacoan biogeographic province.

Rice weevil (Sitophilus oryzae L.) is a primary insect pest of stored grain. The development of resistance resulted in the
application of synthetic insecticides. In recent years many plant essential oils have provided potential alternatives to currently used
insect control agents. The Brazilian pepper tree (Schinus molle L. var. areira (L.) DC.) (Anacardiaceae) has different biological
properties such as insecticidal activity. In this study, repellent, fumigant activity, nutritional indices, and feeding deterrent action
were evaluated on S. oryzae adults. Filter paper impregnation was used to test fumigant toxicity, whereas treated whole wheat was
used to evaluate repellent activity and a flour disk bioassay was done to evaluate feeding deterrent action...

The effectiveness of Amblyseius largoensis (Muma) (Acari: Phytoseiidae) for regulating Polyphagotarsonemus latus (Banks)
(Acari: Tarsonemidae) populations in pepper crops was evaluated in a greenhouse, protected microplots and a tunnel system. A.
largoensis were released at the densities of 2, 4 and 8 predators per plant in the greenhouse. In the microplot and tunnel systems,
only four predators per plant were released. Broad mite population densities were evaluated weekly by sampling young leaves
from the top of the plants. All three released rates of A. largoensis significantly (p < 0.05) controlled broad mite populations in
the greenhouse; however, the control effect was delayed when only two predatory mites were released. On the other hand,...

BIOLOGICAL WARFARE, BIOTERRORISM, BIODEFENCE AND THE BIOLOGICAL AND
TOXIN WEAPONS CONVENTION
Provedor de dados: 69
Biological warfare is the intentional use of micro-organisms, and toxins, generally of microbial, plant or animal origin to produce
disease and death in humans, livestock and crops. The attraction of bioweapons in war, and for use in terroristic attacks is
attributed to easy access to a wide range of disease-producing biological agents, to their low production costs, to their non-
detection by routine security systems, and to their easy transportation from one place to another. In addition, novel and accessible
technologies give rise to proliferation of such weapons that have implications for regional and global security. In counteraction of
such threats, and in securing the culture and defence of peace, the need for leadership and example in devising...

BACKGROUND: The mortality of lung cancer (LC), increases each year in the world, in spite of any advances, in development
of new drugs to advance stages of LC. The high incidence of LC has been associated with smoking habit, genetic diversity and
environmental pollution. Antofagasta region has been reported to have the highest LC mortality rate in Chile and its inhabitants
were exposed to arsenic in their drinking water in concentrations as high as 870 &#956;g/L. Non-invasive techniques such as
biomarkers (Automatic Quantitative Cytometry: AQC and DR70) and Auto Fluorescence Bronchoscopy (AFB) might be
potentially useful as a supplementary diagnostic approach and early detection. Early detection is one of the most important factors
to intervene and...

The effects of silvicultural regimes on leaf area and biomass distribution were analyzed in 16-year old Pinus radiata trees growing
in the semiarid zone of Chile. Three stands with different silvopastoral management were compared with a conventionally
managed stand. Data were obtained through destructive sampling of 36 trees and analyzed by MANOVA and regression models of
ANCOVA. Results show that the management regime affects the leaf area. Specific leaf area was affected by both silvicultural
regime and crown position. Total biomass per tree under the silvopastoral regime was 2.1 to 2.5 times larger than in the
conventional forestry regime. However, aboveground biomass partitioning was neither affected by the silvicultural regime nor by
the schemes of...

Autores: Castro-Nava,S; Ortiz-Cereceres,J; Mendoza-Castillo,M del C; Huerta,AJ.
The aim of this study was to determine the eficiency of drought classification criteria that we previously reported for our grain
sorghum genotypes. Two tolerant genotypes of grain sorghum &#091;Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench&#093; (UAT-124
and UAT-152) and one susceptible (UAT-30) were subjected to drought under greenhouse conditions at either panicle initiation,
flag leaf, or flowering. Results showed that the effects of drought depended on when drought stress occurred during development.
Biomass of the three sorghum genotypes was significantly reduced at the flag leaf stage (48%) by drought stress, but the greatest
reduction occurred in the susceptible genotype UAT-30 (71%). Results showed that biomass accumulation for UAT-124 and UAT-

with renewed force in almost every confrontation concerning the theoretical considerations of life. In recent times a strong and
prolific school of thought has risen, headed by the Chilean neurobiologist Humberto Maturana. This author and his school have
developed a complex and articulated theoretical system beginning with a theory of living beings and a `biology of cognition,' and
extending to ethical, political, and even metaphysical considerations. This work is one of the first efforts to perform a...

Biosorption of chromium (VI) from aqueous solutions by the husk of Bengal gram (Cicer arientinum)
Provedor de dados: 69
Autores: Ahalya,N; Kanamadi,R.D; Ramachandra,T.V.
The potential to remove Cr (VI) from aqueous solutions through biosorption using the husk of Bengal gram (Cicer arientinum),
was investigated in batch experiments. The results showed removal of 99.9% of chromium in the 10 mgl-1 chromium solution, the
biomass required at saturation was 1 g mg-1. Kinetic experiments revealed that the dilute chromium solutions reached equilibrium
within 180 min. The biosorptive capacity of the (bgh) was dependent on the pH of the chromium solution, with pH 2 being
optimal. The adsorption data fit well with the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models. The adsorption capacity calculated from
the Langmuir isotherm was 91.64 mg Cr (VI)/g at pH 2. The adsorption capacity increased with increase in agitation speed and an

Biosorption of chromium(III) by Sargassum sp. biomass
Provedor de dados: 69
Autores: Sala Cossich,Eneida; Granhen Tavares,Célia Regina; Kakuta Ravagnani,Teresa Massako.
Chromium is present in different types of industrial effluents, being responsible for environmental pollution. Traditionally, the
chromium removal is made by chemical precipitation. However, this method is not completely feasible to reduce the chromium
concentration to levels as low as required by environmental legislation. Biosorption is a process in which solids of natural origin
are employed for binding heavy metals. It is a promising alternative method to treat industrial effluents, mainly because of its low
cost and high metal binding capacity. In this work the chromium biosorption process by Sargassum sp. seaweed biomass is
studied. Sargassum sp. seaweed, which is abundant in the Brazilian coast, has been utilized with and without milling. The work...

Autores: Romero,M. Cristina; Reinoso,Enso H.; Urrutia,M. Inés; Moreno Kiernan,Alejandro.
At present, it is common to observe environments with organic and inorganic pollution, defined as co-contamination. Most
industrial and urban effluents releases both pollutant types, leading to a complex environmental problem, as the biota must be
tolerant to both xenobiotics. T. helicus, an efficient strain to degrade biphenyl, was trained with high copper levels, and became co
tolerant to cobalt, lead and cadmium when was cultured in their presence. The copper adaptation was the result of physiological
mechanisms, and the activated biochemical processes conferred resistance to Cu2+ as well as to other heavy metals. Furthermore,
the Cu2+ adaptation of the mycelium was also transferred to the spores, that removed twice as much copper from solution than...

Pessôa de França,Francisca.
The biosorption of lead by the brown alga Sargassum filipendula was studied. pH 4.0 was the optimum value for the biosorption
of lead. Isotherms indicated that for solutions containing 0.03 ± 0.001 up to 3.27 ± 0.04 mmol/L of lead, 2.0g/L was the optimum
biomass concentration. The Langmuir model was fitted to represent the experimental data, and the kinetics of biosorption
presented equilibrium in 30 min. The continuous system operated for 56 hrs presenting a 100% binding of ionic lead, which
corresponds to an accumulation of 168 g lead, equivalent to a load of 1.7 mmol ionic lead/g Sargassum filipendula. The results
that were obtained in a continuous system showed a gradual saturation of the biomass in the reactors

Autores: Flueck,Werner T.
Red deer (Cervus elaphus) were introduced to Patagonia in the 1920´s and have reached high densities in certain areas of the
forest-steppe ecotone. Severe drought conditions during summer/autumn of 1999 were suspected to have an impact on
reproduction of red deer. Necropsies of 50 adult females revealed a pregnancy rate of only 56% as compared to 98% in 1992-1998
or 100% in 1996-1997 in other population. The age distribution of pregnant females reflected the importance of not having been
pregnant during the previous cycle. The primiparous 2 year-old females had a 77% pregnancy rate, whereas none of the lactating
females were pregnant. Normally, a higher reproductive success occurs for middle age classes, thereby reducing the chances of
becoming pregnant...

The effect of foliar boron treatments on fruit growth and seed development in Actinidia deliciosa, cv. Hayward, was studied. The
distal leaves (BH) or fowers (BF) of a shoot were sprayed with 500 mg L-1 boric acid during the fowering period. The mobility of
boron from the leaves to the fowers through the phloem was determined by spraying only the leaves. From 0 to 96 h after
treatment, leaves and fowers were sampled and total boron was assessed. At harvest time, fruit weight and diameter plus seed
weight and number were measured for the different treatments. The weight of fruits growing from shoots with boron-treated
leaves were 14.1% higher than the control, while the weight of fruits derived from boron-treated fowers was 17% higher than that
of fruits...

Introducción: Coffea arabica L., además de su importancia comercial, también se considera una planta medicinal, porque presenta
propiedades biológicas diversas, pero por su comercialización como bebida genera muchos subproductos. La borra es uno de
estos, que se obtiene por la preparación de la bebida, contiene una concentración significativa de compuestos polifenólicos y, por
tanto, la recuperación de estas sustancias a partir de un residuo sin valor, sería potencialmente útil para la industria farmacéutica y
alimentaria. Objetivos: recuperar compuestos fenólicos a partir de la borra de café y darle un valor agregado a un residuo de
origen vegetal, como fuente de componentes con capacidad antirradicales libres in vitro. Métodos: la borra de café...

The re-introduction of domestic South American camelids (alpacas and llamas) in the central zone of Chile makes it necessary to
study their behaviour and adaptability. Since it is fundamental to characterize the camelid s diet, the present work had as an
objective the determination of the plant species selected by the alpacas (Lama pacos Linn.) in different phenological stages
(vegetative, reproductive and dry season). The study was carried out over three years in a paddock of 2.5 ha of sparse shrubland
dominated by Acacia caven (Mol.) Mol. and annual species in the herbaceous stratum, which were continually grazed by five male
alpacas. The botanical composition and the forage dry matter available for grazing in the pasture was evaluated. Botanical...

Several Botryosphaeriaceae species have been identified as the causes of cankers and dieback of Vitis vinifera in several grape-
growing regions around the world. This research was conducted to further study the species of Botryosphaeriaceae associated with
table grapes in Chile, to estimate the prevalence and severity of the disease as a function of vineyard age, to study the
susceptibility of table grape cultivars to infection by Botryosphaeriaceae species, and to evaluate the effect of tissue age on the
infection caused by Botryosphaeriaceae species. Symptoms were characterized by the presence of the partial or total death of the

Boty-II, a novel LTR retrotransposon in Botrytis cinerea B05.10 revealed by genomic sequence
Provedor de dados: 69
Autores: Zhao,Ming; Zhou,Jin yan; Li,Zhi dong; Song,Wei wei; Tan,You jiu; Tan,Hong.
Botrytis cinerea is a necrotrophic pathogen causing pre- and post-harvest diseases in at least 235 plant species. It manifests
extraordinary genotype and phenotype variation. One of the causes of this variation is transposable elements. Two transposable
elements have been discovered in this fungus, the retrotransposon (Boty), and the transposon (Flipper). In this work, two complete
(Boty-II-76 and Boty-II-103) and two partial (Boty-II-95 and Boty-II-141) long terminal repeat (LTR) retrotransposons were
identified by an in silico genomic sequence analysis. Boty-II-76 and Boty-II-103 contain 6439 bp nucleotides with a pair of LTRs
at both ends, and an internal deduced pol gene encoding a polyprotein with reverse transcriptase and DDE integrase domains.

Autores: LUSK,CHRISTOPHER H.; LE-QUESNE,CARLOS.
The growth of Araucaria araucana, like that of many other conifers, is characterised by the production of a monopodial stem with
branch whorls. However, the periodicity of whorl formation in this species has not been subjected to systematic study. We used
growth ring counts to determine the frequency of whorl formation in sun- and shade-grown juvenile A. araucana in a montane
forest in the Chilean coast range. Whorls were not annual in any of the 35 individuals studied, growth rings outnumbering whorls
by a factor of 1.8 to 3.9. The mean interval between successive whorls was significantly shorter in sun-grown (2.1 yrs whorl -1)
than in shade-grown trees (2.6 yrs whorl-1), suggesting a relationship with plant carbon balance. Mean distance between whorls...

Breaking the rule: multiple patterns of scaling of sexual size dimorphism with body size in
orthopteroid insects

Autores: Bidau,Claudio J.; Taffarel,Alberto; Castillo,Elio R.
Sexual size dimorphism (SSD) although a widespread phenomenon among animals, is both enigmatic as to its proximate and
ultimate causes and the scaling relationships between SSD and body size (Rensch's rule). We analyzed SSD at the intra- and
interspecific levels in a number of representative species and genera of the major orthopteroid orders: Orthoptera, Phasmatodea,
Mantodea, Blattodea, Dermaptera, Isoptera, and Mantophasmatodea. The vast majority of the species showed female biased SSD
but numerous exceptions occur in cockroaches and earwigs. Rensch's rule and its converse are not common patterns at both, intra-
and cross-species level, most species and genera showing an isometric relationship between male and female body sizes. In some

Autores: Cao,Yuanyuan; Yao,Jianming; Li,Jun; Chen,Xiangsong; Wu,Jinyong.
To obtain an industrial strain with high lipid yield, the wild strain G0 of Geotrichum robustum was mutated by means of nitrogen
ions implantation. Mutagenic effects of strain G0 by low energy N+ ion implantation were studied. The experimental results
indicated that the survival rate curve took a ?saddle? shape, and the positive mutation rate was increased to 22.00% at the dose of
nitrogen ions 2.0 x 10(15) ions/cm² when the survival rate was 28.60%. By repeated screening, a high lipid producing strain G9
was obtained. The biomass, lipid content and lipid yield of the mutant can reach 40.25 g/L, 71.14% and 28.63 g/L after cultured in
a 5L fermenter for 8 days, increasing by 52.81%, 68.82% and 157.93% to those of wild strain, respectively. Analysis results...

The breeding system, the floral characteristics and the visitors of the polymorphic Passiflora suberosa were studied in different
natural populations of Corrientes and Misiones provinces, and at a partially-opened greenhouse in Buenos Aires. The different
reproductive indexes calculated evidenced that, although it is highly self-compatible, autogamy is partial. The reproductive
efficiency was similar in the field and in the greenhouse. The major relative reproductive success obtained by induced self-
pollination suggests that the reproductive output may be improved with the help of pollinations, either natural or artificial.
Although the single flower and the blooming are inconspicuous, the floral characters may be involved in wasps attraction. The

Plant breeding systems are considered to reflect species' life history characteristics, selection due to biotic or abiotic factors,
pollination conditions, or a combination of these. Reproductive systems may vary over ecological gradients. The breeding system
of the ornithophilous Embothrium coccineum (Proteaceae) from temperate South America was studied by pollination treatments:
manual self-pollination, manual cross-pollination, automatic self-pollination, and natural pollination. These treatments were

Brood care in Brachyuran crabs: the effect of oxygen provision on reproductive costs
Provedor de dados: 97
Autores: FERNÁNDEZ,MIRIAM; BRANTE,ANTONIO.
The quantification of the costs associated with parental care of marine invertebrates requires a first and necessary step, which is
the identification of the different forms of care exhibited by this group. Among marine invertebrates, provision of oxygen to the
aggregation of embryos may be critical, although most evidence on the link between oxygen limitation and parental care is
indirect. Species which show active behavior directed at providing oxygen to the brood offer a good model to establish the direct
link between behavioural patterns and oxygen provision to the embryos, and to estimate the costs associated with this form of
care. In this manuscript, we conducted a review of the current knowledge about oxygen limitation in embryos aggregations of...

C2- and C4-position 17&#946;-estradiol metabolites play an important role in breast carcinogenesis. 2-Hydroxyestradiol and
4-hydroxyestradiol are implicated in tumorigenesis via two pathways. These pathways entail increased cell proliferation and the
formation of reactive oxygen species that trigger an increase in the likelihood of deoxyribonucleic acid mutations. 2-
Methoxyestradiol, a 17&#946;-estradiol metabolite, however, causes induction of apoptosis in transformed and tumor cells;
thus exhibiting an antiproliferative effect on tumor growth. The 4-hydroxyestradiol:2-methoxyestradiol and 2-hydroxyestradiol:2-
methoxyestradiol ratios therefore ought to be taken into account as possible indicators of carcinogenesis.

Background The properties of natural pigments, such as antioxidants, functional, medical, and nutraceutical, have demonstrated
the advantages of these natural compounds over synthetic ones. Some products are accepted only when they are pigmented with
natural, food-quality colorants: for example poultry products (manly marigold flower extracts). Carotenoids such as &#946;-
carotene, &#946;-criptoxanthin and lutein are very attractive as natural food colorants due to their antioxidant and pro-
vitamin activities which provide additional value to the target products. Marigold (Tagetes erecta) is an Asteraceous ornamental
plant native to Mexico, and it is also important as a carotenoid source for industrial and medicinal purposes but nowadays its...

Callus induction and plant regeneration of the endemic Astragalus nezaketae in Turkey
Provedor de dados: 69
Autores: Erisen,Semiha; Yorgancilar,Mustafa; Atalay,Emine; Babaoglu,Mehmet; Duran,Ahmet.
A callus induction and plant regeneration protocol was developed from leaf and petiole explants of the endemic Astragalus
nezaketae. Explants were cultured on Murashige and Skoog medium (MS) supplemented with different plant growth regulators
(PGRs) [?-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), benzyladenine (BA), 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), kinetin (Kin), thidiazuron
(TDZ)]. The combinations and concentrations of PGRs were shown significant variations for the frequency of callus formation,
appearence of callus and the potential of callus differentiation. NAA x BA have been found highly affective in callusing and plant
regeneration. Other PGRs have not resulted in callus differentiation for shoot formation. The highest number of shoots

Los humanos han transformado gran parte de la superficie del planeta en los últimos 300 años. La tala de bosques, las prácticas
agrícolas de subsistencia, la intensificación de la producción agrícola y la expansión de los centros urbanos han cambiado
drásticamente el paisaje. En el centro y sur de Chile las transformaciones han estado asociadas, en un inicio, a la expansión de la
frontera agropecuaria que permitió satisfacer tanto las necesidades internas como la creciente demanda externa por productos
agrícolas. Posteriormente, un fuerte incentivo a la forestación, comandado por el Estado, generó un acelerado proceso de

Cambios en el carbón orgánico del suelo en la cuenca superior del río Heihe, China
Provedor de dados: 85
Autores: Qin,YY; Qi,F; Holden,NM; Cao,JJ.
The Heihe River Basin is a globally significant carbon pool, but its soil organic carbon dynamics is poorly understood. Soil
samples taken between 2500 m and 4100 m revealed that the majority (>75%) of soil organic carbon was from 0-40 cm. It
showed a negative relationship with pH and soil bulk density, and a positive relationship with altitude and soil water content,
respectively. From 2005 to 2011, soil carbon content in the upper catchment decreased from 93 g/kg to 53 g/kg. These results
suggest that policies should aim to reduce carbon loss by transferring it from the top- to the sub-soil.

Varias especies de peces carnívoros, a medida que crecen, tanto el tamaño corporal como el de la boca, se relacionan
positivamente con el tamaño de las presas. Sin embrago, el número y la biomasa de las presas consumidas por los peces no
presentan un patrón tan claro. Para verificar estas relaciones en el pez Thyrsites atun, se recolectaron entre los meses de febrero y
abril de 2004, un total de 140 ejemplares, desde desembarques de naves pesqueras industriales y semiindustriales en la región
centro-sur de Chile. Se estableció la dieta de T. atun mediante descriptores cuantitativos de frecuencia, número y peso de las
presas, los cuales se compararon entre peces subadultos y adultos. También registramos medidas morfométricas bucales para

G.
La vegetación cumple un rol muy importante regulando los flujos de agua de los ecosistemas, en especial en regiones áridas y
semiáridas donde la mayor parte de la precipitación se evapotranspira. En este trabajo se exploró cómo el reemplazo de los
bosques secos nativos por pasturas, orientado a aumentar la productividad ganadera, afecta la partición de flujos de agua en las
llanuras del Chaco Árido. Se caracterizó la distribución del tamaño y la intensidad de eventos de precipitación, y se midieron los
flujos de intercepción directa, escurrimiento superfcial, drenaje profundo y evaporación potencial en parcelas pareadas de bosques
y pasturas en San Luis, Argentina. Las pasturas presentaron menor intercepción directa (0.35±0.13 vs. 1.51±0.50 mm/evento de...

The main purpose of this study is to analyze whether areas of endemism can be characterized quantitatively by using insects,
which are typically much more poorly sampled than vertebrates or plants. For this, an optimality criterion in the search for
endemic areas was used to analyze approximately 1,100 georeferences from 288 species of holometabolous insects found in the
study region, the Yungas (a very moist, montane rainforest), located in north-western Argentina. The optimality criterion is
implemented with the programs NDM/VNDM, used to evaluate areas of endemism (i.e. a set of cells defined by two or more
endemic species). Five grid sizes were used, three square (Iº, 0.5°, and 0.25°) and two rectangular (0.25° x 0.5° and 0.5° x 0.25°).

Autores: Kolady,Deepthi; Lesser,William.
Are humanitarian donations in agbiotech economically feasible for the donor? We address this question by conducting an ex ante
analysis of genetically engineered (GE) eggplant in India. Our analysis indicates that it is economically viable for a firm to donate
the technology for poor farmers&#8217; use by restricting use to open pollinated varieties while selling hybrid verities. By
extension, this means of segmenting markets would likely apply in cases where different levels of production technologies are
used based on access to market, irrigation, and credit, at least for perishable crops.

Can painting human cells with exogenous maltoporin enable efficient therapeutic gene transfer by
bacteriophage lambda vectors?
Provedor de dados: 69
Autores: Tolmachov,Oleg.
Many gene therapy strategies require transfer of high-molecular weight DNA into human cells. To enable clinical trials, these
vectors need to be produced on a large scale and at low cost. The production of effective high-capacity vectors like HSV-
amplicons and helper-dependent adenoviral vectors is difficult to up-scale, so new inexpensive vectors are needed for the efficient
delivery of high-molecular weight DNA to human cells. Bacteriophage lambda vectors can accommodate up to about 46 kb of
therapeutic DNA and can be easily produced in an industrial setting. However, the lambda vectors transfer DNA into mammalian
cells with only a low efficiency. It was shown that bacteriophage lambda virions ejected their DNA in the presence of the purified

hypothesis assumes that a tumour is hierarchically organized and not all of the cells are equally capable of generating descendants,
similarly to normal tissue. The only cells being able to self-renew and produce a heterogeneous tumour cell population are cancer
stem cells. CSCs probably derive from normal stem cells, although progenitor cells may be taken into consideration as the source
of cancer stem cells. CSCs reside in the niche defined as the microenvironment formed by stromal cells, vasculature and

Capital extranjero y agroindustria: Notas para una discusión sobre los cambios en la burguesía
vitivinícola de Argentina a partir de la década del ´90
Provedor de dados: 125
Autores: Chazarreta,Adriana Silvina.
Se propone problematizar cómo afectan a la burguesía vitivinícola de Argentina los cambios producidos en la actividad a partir de
la década de los '90, en el marco de los procesos de globalización. Una de las conclusiones principales es que, aunque el ingreso
de capitales extranjeros a la actividad vitivinícola ha sido importante, la burguesía cuyos capitales son nacionales y/o locales logra
conservar posiciones no desventajosas en la estructura económica de esta agroindustria. Se trabajó principalmente con fuentes
estadísticas de organismos oficiales; y con datos obtenidos de páginas web de las empresas, de consultoras especializadas y de
entrevistas a informantes calificados. Asimismo, se realizó una exhaustiva revisión bibliográfica sobre la temática

Provedor de dados: 81
Autores: Jordan,Phillip N; Moore,Patrick R; Pannkuk,Evan L; Risch,Thomas S.
Lonchorhina aurita (murciélago nariz de sable de Tomes) es una especie rara de murciélagos, restringida a localidades y
distribuida desde el norte de Veracuz, en México, hasta Brasil y Perú. Antes de nuestro estudio en la Isla Ometepe de Nicaragua,
esta especie solo había sido reportada en 1 localidad de Nicaragua (Matiguás, Matagalpa). Entre 2010 y 2013, se capturaron 9 L.
aurita en bosques tropicales del interior y en estratos altos y medios de bosques agrícolas con vegetación densa. Los L. aurita
fueron capturados en varios lugares de la Isla Ometepe, e incluyeron adultos en etapa reproductiva e individuos juveniles.
Nuestros datos sugieren que una población persistente de L. aurita se ha establecido en la Isla Ometepe.

Durante un período de 10 años se estudió el sistema Río Agrio-Lago Caviahue, que constituye un caso único en Sudamérica por
sus aguas de extrema acidez (pH<4). La acidez se origina en las efusiones magmáticas del volcán Copahue que alimentan al
Río Agrio Superior. El sistema hídrico se neutraliza luego de recorrer una extensión de 50 km (Río Agrio Inferior). Esta situación
define un gradiente natural de acidez, concentración y transporte de nutrientes y metales, el cual se expresa en una baja diversidad,
tanto del plancton lacustre como del epiliton lótico. El pH bajo permite que se mantengan en disolución la mayoría de los
elementos presentes, condicionando ambientes con alto contenido de metales y de fósforo en su tramo superior. A diferencia de

Se exponen los resultados obtenidos del análisis biológico y químico del biogel obtenido en las aguas de la piscina El Templado
del balneario San Diego de los Baños, Cuba. Leptothrix subtilissima Kütz es la cianobacteria productora de este biogel, con un 87
% de azufre elemental. Para el análisis químico se preparó una muestra sin contenido de azufre, que permitió determinar los
componentes inorgánicos que están en menor concentración y generalmente enmascarados por el alto contenido de este elemento
en la misma. Se empleó el método de extracción sólido-liquido y se obtuvieron señales características de polisacáridos, magnesio,
calcio y proteínas. Se pudo concluir que este biogel tiene potencialidades de uso en biomedicina, cosmética y como fertilizante

Provedor de dados: 109
Autores: Chaar,Javier Emilio.
Las heladas primaverales son una de las principales limitantes de la producción de frutales de clima templado. Dentro de una
misma especie existe variabilidad en resistencia frente al daño en órganos florales ocasionado por temperaturas bajo cero durante
la salida del reposo invernal. En cinco cultivares de duraznero (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch.) y uno de nectarino se evaluó el daño
ocasionado por heladas y se determinaron la fecha de plena floración y la densidad de floración. Adicionalmente se determinó la
temperatura letal media (TL50) de las yemas florales en el estado de flor abierta, mediante descensos térmicos controlados en
laboratorio. Los cultivares (cv) de duraznero Maria Bianca y Summer Pearl presentaron las mayores densidades de flores sanas...

Provedor de dados: 109
Autores: Molina Benavides,Raúl Andrés; Silva Aguilar,Fernando; Perilla Duque,Sandra; Sánchez Guerrero,Hugo.
La influencia del clima sobre el comportamiento de los animales ha sido demostrada desde hace muchos años. Variables
climáticas como la temperatura (T, °C), humedad relativa (HR, &#37;), radiación solar (Rs, W/m²) y velocidad del viento
(Vv, m.s-1), por fuera de sus rangos normales, pueden desplazar a los rumiantes de su zona de confort, generandoles impactos
negativos sobre su comportamiento, productividad y reproducción. Con el fin de caracterizar el ambiente térmico para la actividad
