Strategies for Sexual Subversion: Informing the Future of Sexualities Research and Activism
In this paper, I review, analyze, and evaluate the myriad ways early canonical and more recent high-profile scholarship in the field of sexualities envision a liberatory sexual politics and the most fruitful modes of achieving it. Due to theorists’ diverging interpretations of the causes and forms of sexual oppression as well as their differing visions of liberated sexuality, I find that prescriptions for dismantling the “ethnosexual regime” (Nagel 2000) vary widely. The strategies suggested by scholars can be categorized into: 1) radical lesbian-feminist separatism, 2) identity politics, 3) the redeployment of gender, which encompasses trans and intersex bodies, gender play (e.g., butch-femme, drag, and shifting constructions of masculinity), and non-binary identities, 4) micro-level individual and interpersonal solutions, 5) changes in educational institutions, and 6) sexualities research itself. I conclude by making suggestions for sociologists who seek to further theorize and effect the subversion of normative systems of sexuality
Learning Multimodal Discourse Strategies in the EFL Classroom
Treball Final de Màster Universitari en Professor/a d'Educació Secundària Obligatòria i Batxillerat, Formació Professional i Ensenyaments d'Idiomes. Codi SAP419. Curs: 2018/2019.English as a L2 teaching in secondary education in Spain has long been tackled as a
linguistic subject focused on speech and writing without introducing multimodal
strategies to complement the use of the language itself. Linguists have shown that
discourse is not only used and expressed in and/or by language (Kress & Van Leeuwen,
2001).
Multimodality is a wide and diverse concept that points to different modes of making
meaning. However, Multimodality has been approached as a discipline rather than a
theory that can apply to different fields. For instance, Gunther Kress (2004) presents
Multimodality as a part of communication in Social Semiotics, a subfield of linguistics in
which multimodal discourse is cross-cultural. O’Halloran (2016), nonetheless, aims to
describe Multimodality within the frame of Systemic Functional Linguistics as the ways
in which language is organized and used to fulfil a range of social patterns.
Many studies centre on the scope of Multimodal Discourse on media, but there is little
research about the use of gesture and gaze in speech (Kendon, 2004). Thus, this paper
aims to describe an instructional approach to multimodal discourse in the EFL
classroom and define the outcomes of using Multimodal strategies so as to enhance the
communication of secondary school students in English discourse.
Therefore, it is very difficult and potentially problematic to talk about Multimodality
without making explicit one’s theoretical and methodological stance. Empirical materials
have been collected to analyse the outcomes of these strategies’ use through
presentations, role-plays, transcription and videos.
The main results of the present paper point to a greater understanding and performance
of the speech when using multimodal resources such as gesture, gaze and intonation.
Consequently, in this paper, a wide range of activities are shown to implement in the EFL
classroom in order to enable teachers to develop activities to foster their students’
‘multimodal communicative competence’

Identification and characterization of regulatory proteins involved in anthocyanin biosynthesis in Fragaria vesca and Rubus idaeus
Primary metabolites like carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids, work as key components to
sustain the plant. Besides those compounds, a wide array of so called ‘secondary metabolites’ are
produced by the plant, which have been given much attention in the scientific literature due to their
beneficial effect for the plant and the possible positive effect on human health. The number of identified
plant secondary metabolites, exceeds 100.000 structures, which briefly can be classified as terpenoids,
alkaloids, glucosides, sterols and, last but not least, phenylpropanoids.
Fragaria vesca and Rubus idaeus; woodland strawberry and commercial raspberry, respectively, are
two of the most popular berries on the market. The characteristic red coloration of their fruits is caused
by the presence of anthocyanin pigments, secondary metabolites from the class of polyphenols. Those
compounds are mainly produced during the late stages of fruit maturation and are essential phenotypic
features; making plant breeders around the world consider these plant metabolites as a trait to follow
up.
The anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway is well studied in model plants. It is regulated at the
transcriptional level by the well-known MBW complex. This complex is formed by the interaction of three
different types of transcription factors (TFs): MYB, bHLH, and WD40, which have already been
characterized in Arabidopsis thaliana, ornamental plants as Antirrhinum majus and Petunia hybrida,
and even in some crops of major economic importance such as corn (Zea mays), soybean (Glycine
max), and apple cultivars (Malus domestica). Nowadays, the level of complexity of the regulatory
process of the anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway is becoming clear – one gene at a time. This
regulation includes TFs, the promoter regions of the genes that are involved and the chromatin
modifications necessary to carry out gene activation and consequent translation for the formation of
each specific enzyme that will lead to the final anthocyanin formation inside the cells.
The recent sequencing and annotation of the genomes of strawberry and raspberry as well as the
possibility of transformation and the high amount of health-promoting anthocyanins present in the
berries potentially make these plants great model systems to study the regulation of anthocyanin
biosynthesis. This study aims to identify the role of bHLH proteins from raspberry and strawberry
involved in anthocyanin biosynthesis.
Based on the A. thaliana bHLH classification and phylogenetic studies reported, the genomes of F.
vesca and R. idaeus were screened, and putative gene candidates were found for both species.
Posterior sequence analyses based on protein primary structure and motif conservation were
performed, and a total of 98 protein-coding sequences were found in F. vesca genome v1.0 and 90
sequences in the unreleased draft version of the R. idaeus genome. The in silico results obtained in
chapter 3.1 provide three and two gene candidates for the woodland strawberry and raspberry,
respectively: Fv3-FV2G25270, Fv33-FV7G08120, Fv145-FV5G02910, Ri3 gene36602 and Ri3-
gene26116.
After the identification of putative bHLH candidate genes, those genes were analyzed during fruit
development and their function was studied in vitro and in vivo (chapter 4 and 5). The results of the
study presented here forms the beginning of a possibility to breed new berry varieties with better traits,
such as higher resistance to various stresses and a with a positive effect on the health of the consumer
Modelling Organizational Resilience in the Cloud
Cloud computing (CC) is a promising information and communication technologies (ICT) services delivery model that has already had a significant impact on Government agencies, small and medium enterprises and large organisations. Even though its adoption is moving from the early stage to mainstream, many organisations are still afraid that their resilience might deteriorate because of the additional levels of abstraction that CC introduces. This additional complexity makes the assessment of ICT operational resilience more difficult and no consensus exists of such analysis. Following a multi-method approach, this research proposal first extends prior research in the field, looking at new possible categories of resilience-oriented requirements when working in CC environments. Based on the results, this research will propose a conceptual model that helps organisations to maintain and improve Organisational Resilience (OR) when working in CC environments, from the ICT operational perspective. Particularly, as a lack of coordination has been identified as one of the main problems when facing disruptive incidents, using coordination theory, this research will identify the fundamental coordination processes involved in the proposed model. The results of this research should be of interest to academic researchers and practitioners
Root-associated fungal communities colonizing two dominant semiarid grasses: Hilaria sp. and Stipa sp.
We conducted a preliminary survey of the fungal communities associated with roots of Stipa hymenoides and Hilaria jamesii, two grasses native to the southwestern United States. Root samples from 10 different plants were collected at a semiarid grassland in Utah. Fungal communities were assessed using microscopic and molecular methods. Roots were cleared with KOH and stained using blue ink to visualize mycorrhizal and endophytic fungi. A total of 100 root segments were surface sterilized and plated on malt extract agar with antibiotics. Fungal endophytes were identified using nrITS primers.

Results/Conclusions

Microscopic analyses showed that all root samples from both Hillaria and Stipa were colonized by dark septate and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. Vesicles and hyaline hyphae also were observed in all the roots. Sclerotia, a characteristic structure of some dark septate fungi were also found. Approximately 75 fungi were isolated representing at least 45 morphotypes. Molecular identification showed that both grasses are colonized by endophytes in the orders Pleosporales, Hypocreales, and Sordariales commonly found in semiarid grasses, liverworts, and mosses

Invariant Conformal Killing-Yano -forms on five dimensional Lie Groups
We study left invariant conformal Killing-Yano (CKY) -forms on Lie groups
endowed with a left invariant metric. The first examples of CKY -forms on
metric Lie algebras which do not admit any Sasakian structure, are exhibited.
We classify, up to isometry and scaling, -dimensional metric Lie algebras
with center of dimension greater than one admitting CKY tensors. In addition,
we construct -dimensional metric Lie algebras with one-dimensional center
carrying CKY tensors. In both cases, we determine all possible CKY tensors on
these metric Lie algebras
