Understanding the spatiotemporal distribution of birds is crucial for effective management and conservation of their populations. However, we still have only limited knowledge not only of the wintering destinations of many Iberian breeding migrants but also of aspects as general as the migratory behaviour of the populations of many common avian species that breed in the Iberian highlands. We used
Fragrance production in petunia flowers is highly regulated. Two transcription factors, ODORANT1 (ODO1) and EMISSION OF BENZENOIDS II (EOBII) have recently been identified as regulators of the volatile benzenoid/phenylpropanoid pathway in petals. Unlike the non-fragrant Petunia hybrida cultivar R27, the fragrant cultivar Mitchell highly expresses ODO1. Using stable reporter lines, we identified th
Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are man-made, highly persistent and mobile compounds that have been extensively used in decades, for example as a fire repellent in aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF). They have been detected in soil, surface water and groundwater, where they pose risks to human health through contamination of drinking water supplies and to ecosystems. In this case study, PFAS spread
Background: Ribonucleotide reductases (RNRs) catalyze the formation of the deoxyribonucleotides that are essential for DNA synthesis. The R2 subunit of Escherichia coli RNR is a homodimer containing one dinuclear iron centre per monomer. A tyrosyl radical is essential for catalysis, and is formed via a reaction in which the reduced, diferrous form of the iron centre activates dioxygen. To help und
Industrial waste dumps are rarely colonized by vegetation after they have been abandoned, indicating biological infertility. Revegetation of industrial tailings dumps is thus necessary to prevent wind erosion, metal leaching and has been shown to restore soil functions and ecosystem services. However, little is known about the microbial colonization and community structure of vegetated tailings fo
Abstract in French Le monologue théâtral par l’auteur italien Alessandro Baricco, Novecento, publié en 1994 a fait l’objet de deux adaptations: en 1998 Giuseppe Tornatore a réalisé un film en langue originale anglaise, The Legend of the Pianist on the Ocean; en 2008, Baricco lui-même, en collaboration avec le dessinateur Giorgio Cavazzano et le scénariste Tito Faraci, signe l’adaptation en bandes
At the Museum of World Culture (former Etnografiska Museet i Göteborg) there is an archaeological collection from the Santa Maria and Calchaqui Valleys of north-western Argentina, which came to the museum in 1930. In this article we will focus on six well-preserved objects with provenience from Quilmes and La Quebrada del Carmen in the Santa Maria Valley. In addition to the good conservation of th
The predominantly populated conformation of carbohydrates in solution does not necessarily represent the biologically active species; rather, any conformer accessible without too large an energy penalty may be present in a biological pathway. Thus, the conformational preferences of a naphthyl xyloside, which initiates in vivo synthesis of antiproliferative glycosaminoglycans, have been studied by
REVEALS-based quantitative reconstruction of Holocene vegetation cover (expressed in plant functional types. PFTs) is used in the LANDCLIM project to assess the effect of human-induced land-cover change on past climate in NW Europe. Using the Czech Quaternary Pollen Database, this case study evaluates the extent to which selection of data and input parameters for the REVEALS model applications wou
Predicted alterations in belowground plant-allocated C as a result of environmental change may cause compositional shifts in soil microbial communities, and it has been hypothesized that such alterations will influence C mitigation in forest ecosystems. In order to investigate to what degree living trees influence the abundance and activity of mycorrhizal fungi, saprotrophic fungi, and bacteria we
The sugar binding specificities of two groups of Streptococcus suis, a pig pathogen that causes meningitis also in man, were determined. Both the group represented by a recently characterized strain inhibitable by galactose and N-acetylgalactosamine (type PN) and the group inhibitable by galactose (type PO) were found by hemagglutination and solid-phase binding inhibition experiments to recognize
Les deux copines Marie et Christine partiraient en voyage ensemble. Elles en parlaient depuis longtemps. Elles ont decidé d'aller en Italie puisque elles trouvaient toutes les deux ce pays très passionant. Mais elles en avaient des raisons différents: Marie voulait rencontrer des garcons italiens, et Christine voulait se bronzer. Avant de partir elles ont parlé de tout ce qu'elles feraient, en reg
