    The genetic diversity of “Gama” and “Bico de Corvo”, local cultivars of olive tree (Olea europaea) from seven traditional orchards of Ficalho (Alentejo region, Portugal), was studied to characterize the local diversity and assess the level of on farm diversity. Two different analytical systems were used: endocarp morphological characteristics and genetic analysis by microsatellite markers (Simple Sequence Repeats or SSR). The seven screened loci were polymorphic and allowed the identification of 23 distinct SSR profiles within the 27 trees analyzed. A total of 52 different alleles were scored, with an average of 7.43 alleles/SSR locus, and considerable genetic diversity was found. Neighbor-Joining algorithm cluster analysis and principal co-ordinate analysis (PCoA) allowed for the identification of the genetic relationships between several accessions. The 27 Olea accessions were clearly separated into three different groups. SSR analysis was more precise than endocarp characterization in the classification of genetic diversity among the olive tree cultivars. The study shows reasonable olive tree diversity in Ficalho, indicating that these traditional orchards are important reservoirs of old minor cultivars and incubators of new genotypesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

    OBJECTIVES: To study the effect of short-chain fatty-acids on atrophy and inflammation of excluded colonic segments before and after the development of diversion colitis. INTRODUCTION: Diversion colitis is a chronic inflammatory process affecting the dysfunctional colon, possibly evolving with mucous and blood discharge. The most favored hypotheses to explain its development is short-chain fatty-acid deficiency in the colon lumen. METHODS: Wistar rats were submitted to colostomy with distal colon exclusion. Two control groups (A1 and B1) received rectally administered physiological saline, whereas two experimental groups (A2 and B2) received rectally administered short-chain fatty-acids. The A groups were prophylactically treated (5th to 40th days postoperatively), whereas the B groups were therapeutically treated (after post-operative day 40). The mucosal thickness of the excluded colon was measured histologically. The inflammatory reaction of the mucosal lamina propria and the lymphoid tissue response were quantified through established scores. RESULTS: There was a significant thickness recovery of the colonic mucosa in group B2 animals (p = 0.0001), which also exhibited a significant reduction in the number of eosinophilic polymorphonuclear cells in the lamina propria (p = 0.0126) and in the intestinal lumen (p = 0.0256). Group A2 showed no mucosal thickness recovery and significant increases in the numbers of lymphocytes (p = 0.0006) and eosinophilic polymorphonuclear cells in the lamina propria of the mucosa (p = 0.0022). CONCLUSION: Therapeutic use of short-chain fatty-acids significantly reduced eosinophilic polymorphonuclear cell numbers in the intestinal wall and in the colonic lumen; it also reversed the atrophy of the colonic mucosa. Prophylactic use did not impede the development of mucosal atrophy

    Population structure in Quercus suber L. revealed by nuclear microsatellite markers

    Quercus suber L. is a sclerophyllous tree species native to the western Mediterranean, a region that is considered highly vulnerable to increased temperatures and severe dry conditions due to environmental changes. Understanding the population structure and demographics of Q. suber is essential in order to anticipate whether populations at greater risk and the species as a whole have the genetic background and reproductive dynamics to enable rapid adaptation. The genetic diversity of Q. suber has been subject to different studies using both chloroplast and nuclear data, but population structure patterns remain unclear. Here, we perform genetic analyses on Q. suber using 13 nuclear microsatellite markers, and analysed 17 distinct locations across the entire range of the species. Structure analyses revealed that Q. suber may contain three major genetic clusters that likely result from isolation in refugia combined with posterior admixture and putative introgression from other Quercus species. Our results show a more complex structure scenario than previously inferred for Q. suber using nuclear markers and suggest that different southern populations contain high levels of genetic variation that may contribute to the resilience of Q. suber in a context of environmental change and adaptive pressureinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

    Haplotype diversity patterns in Quercus suber (Fagaceae) inferred from cpDNA sequence data

    Get PDF
    Chloroplast genome diversity in cork oak (Quercus suber) is characterised by the occurrence of haplotypes that are akin to those found in other Mediterranean oak species, particularly in Q. ilex and Q. rotundifolia, suggesting the possible presence of an introgressed chloroplast lineage. To further investigate this pattern, we reconstructed chloroplast haplotypes by sequencing four chloroplast markers (cpDNA), sampled across 181 individuals and 10 taxa. Our analyses resulted in the identification of two diversified chloroplast haplogroups in Q. suber, corresponding to a geographically widespread lineage and an Afro-Iberian lineage. Time-calibrated phylogenetic analyses of cpDNA point to a Miocene origin of the two haplogroups in Q. suber, suggesting that the Afro-Iberian lineage was present in cork oak before the onset of glaciation periods. The persistence of the two haplogroups in the western part of the species distribution range may be a consequence of either ancient introgression events or chloroplast lineage sorting, combined with different fixation in refugia through glaciation periods. Our results provide a comprehensive insight on the origins of chloroplast diversity in these ecologically and economically important Mediterranean oaks.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

    Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (especialização)—Universidade de Brasília, Universidade Aberta do Brasil, Faculdade de Educação, III Curso de Especialização em Educação na Diversidade e Cidadania, com Ênfase em EJA, 2015.O presente Projeto de Intervenção Local (PIL) “Estratégia de Ensino como foco para evitar a evasão Escolar na Educação de Jovens e Adultos – EJA: o caso do CREJA de Luziânia-GO” foi realizado no Centro Municipal de Educação Básica Professora Ana Reis Meireles Dona Tizinha, entra de Referência de Educação de Jovens e Adultos (CREJA) em Luziânia–GO. O projeto investigativo-interventivo visou analisar as principais causas da evasão escolar e procurou construir estratégias pedagógicas a fim de amenizar o problema. O objetivo foi promover uma reestruturação curricular que possibilitasse a criação e o desenvolvimento de estratégias de ensino alinhadas, sobretudo, com uma pedagogia libertadora que favorecessem a permanência do aluno na escola. Para fundamentar o projeto de Intervenção foram observadas leis, documentos da Unidade Escolar como o Projeto Político Pedagógico (GADOTTI, 1994) e autores que se debruçam sobre temas que estão direta ou indiretamente relacionados com a evasão escolar nos moldes como a discute Arroyo (1997), como estratégia pedagógica (TACCA, 2014), pedagogia libertadora (FREIRE, 1968, 34). E ainda nos amparamos nas ideias de Campos (2003) para estruturar a discussão sobre questões metodológicas da pesquisa. Ao concluir o projeto observa-se que a escola realizou ações para o enfrentamento do problema da evasão escolar e que as mesmas têm se mostrado capazes de ajudar a minimizar a problemática na escola, uma vez que já se constatou uma diminuição de 17% do índice de evasão.This Local Intervention Project (LIP) "Education Strategy focused to prevent truancy in the Youth and Adult Education - EJA: the case of Luziânia-GO CREJA" was held at the Municipal Center for Basic Education Professor Ana Reis Meireles Dona Tizinha, goes to the Youth and Adult Education Reference (CREJA) in Luziânia-GO. Investigative-interventionist project aimed to analyze the root causes of truancy and sought to build pedagogical strategies to alleviate the problem. The objective was to promote a curriculum restructuring that would allow the creation and development of aligned teaching strategies, especially with a liberating pedagogy favoring the permanence of the student in school. To support the intervention project laws were observed, the School Unit documents such as the Pedagogical Political Project (GADOTTI, 1994) and authors that focus on topics that are directly or indirectly related to truancy in the manner as discussed Arroyo (1997) , as a pedagogical strategy (TACCA, 2014), liberating pedagogy (Freire, 1968, 34). And we still hold you in the Campos ideas (2003) to structure the discussion on methodological issues of the research. To complete the project is observed that the school held actions to fight the problem of truancy and that they have been able to help minimize the problems in school, as already noted a decrease of 17% of the index evasion
