Effect of the essential oil from the latex of the fruit Mangifera indica L. on Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari, Tetranychidae)

International audienceTetranychus urticae Koch is a cosmopolitan pest that causes damage to crops in protected farming activities in the semiarid region of the state of Pernambuco, Brazil. We investigated the lethal and sublethal effects of the essential oil from the latex of the mango fruit [Mangifera indica, Espada and Rosa (MESPA and MROSA) varieties] and selected monoterpenes on T. urticae. The yield of the MROSA oil was higher (9.22 ± 0.15%). The GC/MS analysis of the oils enabled the identification of 26 constituents. Terpinolene (70.14 ± 0.61%) was the major compound identified in the MESPA oil; β-pinene (38.22 ± 0.80%) was the major constituent of the MROSA oil, followed by terpinolene (29.44 ± 0.29%). The mite was more susceptible to the oils and constituents through fumigation, with no difference between the two varieties. By residual contact, the MROSA oil was 2.7-fold more toxic than the MESPA oil. Terpinolene was the most toxic constituent by fumigation, whereas β-pinene and α-pinene were the most active by residual contact. The selected compounds from M. indica also affected the behavior of the mite, exerting an influence on fecundity, feeding preference and egg-laying preference. The positive control (Azamax®) was more efficient at reducing the fecundity of the mite than the oils, but the MROSA oil was more toxic by fumigation and residual contact. The effects of fumigation and residual contact combined with the change in behavior may be a considerable advantage in the integrated management of T. urticae. For the practical use of these oils as novel acaricides, however, further investigations are needed to evaluate the effects on non-target organisms and the cost-benefit ratio for the formulation of a product to be used on protected crops in the semiarid region of the state of Pernambuco, Brazil

Estimating harvested rainwater at greenhouses in south Portugal aquifer Campina de Faro for potential infiltration in Managed Aquifer Recharge

The Campina de Faro (CF) aquifer system, located on the south coast of Portugal, is an important source of groundwater, mostly used for agriculture purposes. In some areas, this multi-layered aquifer is contaminated with high concentration of nitrates, possibly arising from excessive usage of fertilizers, reaching to values as high as 300 mg/L.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Anatomic Aspects of Inguinal Lymph Nodes Applied to Lymphadenectomy in Penile Cancer

Objectives. To provide a better understanding of the distribution of inguinal nodes in order to prevent the complications of unnecessary and extended dissections in penile cancer. Methods. The bilateral inguinal regions of 19 male cadavers were dissected. Nodal distribution was noted and quantified based on anatomical location. The superficial nodes were subdivided into quarters as follows: superomedial, superolateral, inferomedial, and inferolateral. Statistical analysis was performed comparing node distribution between quarters using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), and the unpaired T-test was used between superficial and deep nodes. Results. Superficial nodes were found in all inguinal regions studied (mean = 13.60), and their distribution was more prominent in the superomedial quarter (mean = 3.94) and less in the inferolateral quarter (mean = 2.73). There was statistical significance between quarters when comparing the upper group with the lower one (P = 0.02). Nodes were widely distributed in the superficial region compared with deep lymph nodes (mean = 13.60 versus 1.71, P < 0.001). Conclusions. A great number of inguinal lymph nodes are distributed near the classical anatomical landmarks for inguinal lymphadenectomy, more prominent in upper quadrants

Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (MTLE) Drug-Refractoriness Is Associated With P2X7 Receptors Overexpression in the Human Hippocampus and Temporal Neocortex and May Be Predicted by Low Circulating Levels of miR-22

Objective: ATP-gated ionotropic P2X7 receptors (P2X7R) actively participate in epilepsy and other neurological disorders. Neocortical nerve terminals of patients with Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy with Hippocampal Sclerosis (MTLE-HS) express higher P2X7R amounts. Overexpression of P2X7R bolsters ATP signals during seizures resulting in glial cell activation, cytokines production, and GABAergic rundown with unrestrained glutamatergic excitation. In a mouse model of status epilepticus, increased expression of P2X7R has been associated with the down-modulation of the non-coding micro RNA, miR-22. MiR levels are stable in biological fluids and normally reflect remote tissue production making them ideal disease biomarkers. Here, we compared P2X7R and miR-22 expression in epileptic brains and in the serum of patients with MTLE-HS, respectively. Methods: Quantitative RT-PCR was used to evaluate the expression of P2X7R in the hippocampus and anterior temporal lobe of 23 patients with MTLE-HS and 10 cadaveric controls. Confocal microscopy and Western blot analysis were performed to assess P2X7R protein amounts. MiR-22 expression was evaluated in cell-free sera of 40 MTLE-HS patients and 48 healthy controls. Results: Nerve terminals of the hippocampus and neocortical temporal lobe of MTLE-HS patients overexpress (p 3) anti-epileptic drug (AED) regimens. Conclusion: Data show that there is an inverse relationship between miR-22 serum levels and P2X7R expression in the hippocampus and neocortex of MTLE-HS patients, which implies that measuring serum miR-22 may be a clinical surrogate of P2X7R brain expression in the MTLE-HS. Moreover, the high area under the ROC curve (0.777; 95% CI 0.629-0.925; p = 0.001) suggests that low miR-22 serum levels may be a sensitive predictor of poor response to AEDs among MTLE-HS patients. Results also anticipate that targeting the miR-22/P2X7R axis may be a good strategy to develop newer AEDs.This research was partial funded by a BICE Tecnifar Grant.

Comparison between spectral angle mapper and euclidean distance in landform mapping

A classificação supervisionada por assinaturas geomorfométricas é um procedimento que pode auxiliar no mapeamento de formas de terreno a partir da utilização de medidas de similaridade ou distância. Este trabalho tem como objetivo comparar os métodos supervisionados de classifi cação a partir de medidas de similaridade e distância para o mapeamento do relevo. A comparação foi realizada no Campo de Instrução Militar de Formosa (GO), seguindo os seguintes passos: aquisição de dados HydroSHEDS, geração de imagens de curvatura, seleção de assinaturas geomorfométricas (AG); classifi cação formas de terreno usando o método de classifi cação por ângulo espectral (SAM) e a distância euclidiana (DE); comparação da classifi cação através da matriz de tabulação cruzada, análise de modelo de elevação em 3D, avaliação da média e do desvio padrão das curvaturas para cada classe mapeada e observação em campo. A seleção de assinaturas geomorfométrica considerou as seguintes etapas: (a) redução dos atributos geomorfométricos pela transformação de Fração Mínima de Ruído (MNFTipo 1 - quando a curvatura longitudinal tem um valor maior que a curvatura transversal; e Tipo 2 - quando ocorre o inverso. O processo foi simplifi cado para seis classes de formas de terreno (FT): Convexo/Convexo (Cx/Cx); Côncavo/Convexo (Cc/Cx); Côncavo/Côncavo (Cc/Cc); Côncavo/Retilíneo (Cc/Rt); Convexo/Retilíneo (Cx/Rt); Retilíneo/Retilíneo (Rt/Rt). No mapeamento utilizando o SAM, as formas de relevo predominantes são Cc/Rt, Cx/Rt e Cc/Cx, indicando uma heterogeneidade com muitas áreas de transição e côncavas. A classifi cação a partir da DE mostrou prevalência de feições retilíneas (Rt/Rt). Apesar disso, essa FT apresentou os menores desvios e valores médios próximos de zero para todas as curvaturas, indicando que a DE foi o método mais efi ciente para o mapeamento das áreas retilíneas.); (b) redução espacial pelo Índice de Pureza de Pixel (PPI); e (c) a seleção manual peloThe supervised classifi cation from geomorphometric signatures (AG) is a proceeding that can help landform mapping using similarity or distance measures. This study aims to compare the supervised classifi cation of similarity and distance methods to the landform mapping. The comparison was made in Campo de Instrução de Formosa (GO), divided into the following steps: acquiring HydroSHEDS data, generation of bending images, selection of geomorphometric signatures; landforms classifi cation using the spectral angle mapper (SAM) and Euclidean Distance (DE) methods; comparing the classifi cation using the cross-tabulation matrix, elevation model analysis in 3D, evaluation of the mean and standard deviation of the curvatures for each mapped class, and fi eld observation. Selecting geomorphometric signatures considered the following steps: (a) reduction of geomorphometric attributes the transformation Minimum Noise Fraction (MNF); (B) spatial reduction by the Pixel Purity Index (PPI); and (c) the manual selection by the n-Dimensional Viewer. The classifi cation process took 14 AG describing two behaviors: Type 1 - when the longitudinal curvature has a value greater than the transverse curvature; and Type 2 - when the opposite occurs. The process has been simplifi ed to six landforms classes: Convex/Convex (Cx/Cx); Concave/Convex (Cc/Cx); Concave/Concave (Cc/cc); Concave/Rectilinear (Cc/ Rt); Convex/Rectilinear (Cx/Rt); Rectilinear/Rectilinear (Rt/Rt). In SAM mapping, the predominant landforms are Cc/Rt, Cx/Rt and Cc/Cx, indicating heterogeneity in many transition and concave areas. The classifi cation from DE showed prevalence of rectilinear features (Rt/Rt). However, this FT showed the smallest standard deviations and average values close to zero for all curvatures, indicating that was the most effi cient method for mapping the rectilinear areas
