Actividad insecticida de extractos de Bocconia frutescens L. sobre Hypothenemus hampei F.

Se evaluó la actividad de Bocconia fruescens L. como insecticida sobre Hypothenemus hampei F. Extractos de hojas, semillas, y corteza se estudiaron en concentraciones de 2000, 1000 y 500 ppm, encontrando que la corteza posee la mayor actividad insecticida. Posteriormente, se evaluó la actividad de varios extractos ricos en alcaloides obtenidos de diferentes formas, hallando una acción insecticida Aprox. 15%. Además se identificó la presencia de alcaloides. Mediante fraccionamiento por columna y capa delgada se obtuvieron fracciones que posteriormente se llevaron a CG-MS y se propusieron posibles estructuras y rutas de fragmentación. Se diseñó un método para evaluar la actividad insecticida de plantas que se presumen ricas en alcaloides sobre Hypothenemus hampei F.1. Introducción 1 2. Planteamiento del problema 3 3.

The genomic history of the Iberian Peninsula over the past 8000 years

We assembled genome-wide data from 271 ancient Iberians, of whom 176 are from the largely unsampled period after 2000 BCE, thereby providing a high-resolution time transect of the Iberian Peninsula.We document high genetic substructure between northwestern and southeastern hunter-gatherers before the spread of farming.We reveal sporadic contacts between Iberia and North Africa by ~2500 BCE and, by ~2000 BCE, the replacement of 40% of Iberia's ancestry and nearly 100% of its Y-chromosomes by people with Steppe ancestry.We show that, in the Iron Age, Steppe ancestry had spread not only into Indo-European-speaking regions but also into non-Indo-European-speaking ones, and we reveal that present-day Basques are best described as a typical Iron Age population without the admixture events that later affected the rest of Iberia. Additionally, we document how, beginning at least in the Roman period, the ancestry of the peninsula was transformed by gene flow from North Africa and the eastern Mediterranean

Genomic and phenotypic insights from an atlas of genetic effects on DNA methylation.

Characterizing genetic influences on DNA methylation (DNAm) provides an opportunity to understand mechanisms underpinning gene regulation and disease. In the present study, we describe results of DNAm quantitative trait locus (mQTL) analyses on 32,851 participants, identifying genetic variants associated with DNAm at 420,509 DNAm sites in blood. We present a database of >270,000 independent mQTLs, of which 8.5% comprise long-range (trans) associations. Identified mQTL associations explain 15–17% of the additive genetic variance of DNAm. We show that the genetic architecture of DNAm levels is highly polygenic. Using shared genetic control between distal DNAm sites, we constructed networks, identifying 405 discrete genomic communities enriched for genomic annotations and complex traits. Shared genetic variants are associated with both DNAm levels and complex diseases, but only in a minority of cases do these associations reflect causal relationships from DNAm to trait or vice versa, indicating a more complex genotype–phenotype map than previously anticipated.C.L.R., G.D.S., G.S., J.L.M., K.B., M.

Pervasive gaps in Amazonian ecological research

Biodiversity loss is one of the main challenges of our time,1,2 and attempts to address it require a clear un derstanding of how ecological communities respond to environmental change across time and space.3,4 While the increasing availability of global databases on ecological communities has advanced our knowledge of biodiversity sensitivity to environmental changes,5–7 vast areas of the tropics remain understudied.8–11 In the American tropics, Amazonia stands out as the world’s most diverse rainforest and the primary source of Neotropical biodiversity,12 but it remains among the least known forests in America and is often underrepre sented in biodiversity databases.13–15 To worsen this situation, human-induced modifications16,17 may elim inate pieces of the Amazon’s biodiversity puzzle before we can use them to understand how ecological com munities are responding. To increase generalization and applicability of biodiversity knowledge,18,19 it is thus crucial to reduce biases in ecological research, particularly in regions projected to face the most pronounced environmental changes. We integrate ecological community metadata of 7,694 sampling sites for multiple or ganism groups in a machine learning model framework to map the research probability across the Brazilian Amazonia, while identifying the region’s vulnerability to environmental change. 15%–18% of the most ne glected areas in ecological research are expected to experience severe climate or land use changes by 2050. This means that unless we take immediate action, we will not be able to establish their current status, much less monitor how it is changing and what is being lostinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

The Caldera. No. 24

El poder extraordinario que tiene la literatura, en la vida de un ser humano, es incalculable; no sólo es abrir un libro y pasar los ojos por las páginas; ¡No! Es dejarse atrapar, dejarse llevar por mundos y contextos distintos, diversos, pletóricos de vivencias humanas que nos hacen únicos e irrepetibles. Cada vez que abrimos un libro y nos damos el permiso de leerlo, nos volvemos mejores seres humanos, porque comprendemos más al otro, o por lo menos, tratamos de reconocer cómo vivían, cómo pensaban, cómo actuaban, en otras épocas, incluyendo la nuestra. Con la lectura, podemos entender por qué los seres humanos son como son, potenciamos la empatía y fortalecemos la conciencia moral, entre algunas ventajas que tiene este proceso que nos acompaña a lo largo de toda la vida. Este año, en la mejor Feria del Libro del Oriente Colombiano, ULIBRO 2021, que se realiza del 30 de agosto, al 4 de septiembre, estamos invitados a participar en conversatorios, talleres, encuentros con autores, entre otras actividades propuestas, de manera presencial y virtual, para seguir fortaleciendo nuestro proyecto de vida; también, estamos invitados a dejarnos contagiar de la lectura, de la escritura, de la oralidad, a partir de “Las historias asombrosas”, que se van a tomar los diferentes espacios propuestos.1.

Nuestros Maestros…92The extraordinary power that literature has, in the life of a human being, is incalculable; It is not just opening a book and running your eyes through the pages; No! It is to let yourself be trapped, to let yourself be carried away by different, diverse worlds and contexts, full of human experiences that make us unique and unrepeatable. Every time we open a book and give ourselves permission to read it, we become better human beings, because we understand others more, or at least, we try to recognize how they lived, how they thought, how they acted, in other times, including ours. . With reading, we can understand why human beings are the way they are, we enhance empathy and strengthen moral conscience, among some advantages that this process has that accompanies us throughout our lives. This year, in the best Book Fair of the Colombian East, ULIBRO 2021, which takes place from August 30 to September 4, we are invited to participate in talks, workshops, meetings with authors, among other proposed activities, in person and virtual, to continue strengthening our life project; Also, we are invited to let ourselves be infected with reading, writing, orality, starting from "The amazing stories", which are going to take the different spaces proposed
