Timelike and spacelike hadron form factors, Fock state components and light-front dynamics
A unified description of spacelike and timelike hadron form factors within a
light-front model was successfully applied to the pion. The model is extended
to the nucleon to study the role of pair production and of
nonvalence components in the nucleon form factors. Preliminary results in the
spacelike range are presented.Comment: 4 pages, espcrc1.sty. proceedings of FB XVIII (August 2006, Brazil),

Electromagnetic Hadron Form Factors and Higher Fock Components
Investigation of the spacelike and timelike electromagnetic form factors of
hadrons, within a relativistic microscopical model characterized by a small set
of hypothesis, could shed light on the components of hadron states beyond the
valence one. Our relativistic approach has been successfully applied first to
the pion and then the extension to the nucleon has been undertaken. The pion
case is shortly reviewed as an illustrative example for introducing the main
ingredients of our approach, and preliminary results for the nucleon in the
spacelike range are evaluated.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figs, espcrc1.sty included. Proceedings of Fifth

Electromagnetic form factors of the nucleon in spacelike and timelike regions
An approach for a unified description of the nucleon electromagnetic form
factors in spacelike and timelike regions is presented. The main ingredients of
our model are: a Mandelstam formula for the matrix elements of the nucleon
electromagnetic current; a 3-dimensional reduction of the problem on the
Light-Front performed within the so-called {\tt Propagator Pole Approximation}
({\bf PPA}), which consists in disregarding the analytical structure of the
Bethe-Salpeter amplitudes and of the quark-photon vertex function in the
integration over the minus components of the quark momenta; a dressed
photon vertex in the channel, where the photon is described by its
spin-1, hadronic component.Comment: 8 pages, 9 figs., macro added. Proceedings of the XI Conf. on

Immature embryo rescue and in vitro development evaluation of intraspecific hybrids from Brazilian seedless grapevine Superior × Thompson clones.
The fruit production for export is an economically significant activity in the Valley of São Francisco River, especially in the irrigated lands of Petrolina-PE/Juazeiro-BA, Brazil. The development of new genetic material most suitable to the tropical climate and the demands of the consumer market have led to the selection of new seedless grapes cultivars. In this case, the use of the embryo rescue technique has produced satisfactory results for obtaining such materials, especially in the semiarid region. This study aimed to evaluate the in vitro development of intraspecific hybrids of grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.), derived from the rescue of immature embryos resultant from the crossing of Superior Seedless and Thompson Seedless Brazilian clones. To establish and develop the cultivation, the culture media was supplemented with 30 g/L sucrose, 0.1 g/L myo-inositol, 0.002 g/L glycine, 0.1 mg/L indoleacetic acid (IAA), 6.5 g/L of agar, adjusted pH to 5.7. The experiment was evaluated after 90 days. The variables measured were: number of nodes, number of leaves, plant height (cm), number of roots and length (cm) of the root system and internodes. The period of 60 days of in vitro culture of ovules resulted in the highest values of embryos (about 50%), as well as better characterized developmental stages with higher germination (47.3%). The three types of hybrid grapes evaluated in micropropagation showed very similar values of the measured parameters, even having originated from embryos of different developmental stages
