Intellectuals and Japanese Buddhism in Brazil

This study concentrates on the discovery of Japanese Buddhism by Brazilian intellectuals as a group of spiritual practices and as a body of spiritual wisdom. The study has been realized through readings and meetings with Japanese Buddhist monks and/or Japanese immigrants. These intellectuals defend a religious experience based on a universal notion of representations of Japanese Buddhism, which provides them with a non-dualistic philosophical perspective and a unique psychological experience. Through innovative spiritual experiences these intellectuals have broken the tension created within the dispute between secularized science and the Catholic hegemony, both predominant in the intellectual panorama.

RAPD marker use for improving resistance to Helicoverpa zea in corn

Helicoverpa zea is responsible for great losses to the corn, Zen mays L., crops final productivity, and the best way to control it is by improving genetic resistance. In collaboration with corn improvement and increasing resistance to insects through molecular marker assisted selection, this work had as an objective the selection of resistant (RP) and susceptible progenies (SP) to H. zea based on the RAPD technique. Molecular markers were Found, among the resistant progenies and it is suggested that linkage of these within the Zapalote Chico corn race, be used to extract resistance genes from this race as a donor. The progenies were selected from a population of half-sibs exhibiting a broader genetic base (FCAVJ-VF14). After DNA extraction, two sample bulks were formed; one made up of the six most resistant plants, the other of the six least resistant plants. Eighty-six primers were tested for PCR reactions with the resistant and susceptible bulks and analyzed on agarose electrophoresis for the detection of RAPD band polymorphism. The results of the banding patterns and similarity values indicated a nucleotide sequence amplified by the primer OPC-2 as a possible molecular marker for the identification of resistant progenies and a homology region between them and the Zapalote Chico corn race.

Estádio de Desenvolvimento do Milho. 1. Efeito sobre a Produção, Composição da Planta e Qualidade da Silagem

The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of maturity on the production, stalk/leaf/ear relationship, chemical composition, and quality of corn silage (Zen mays, L.). Four harvests were made from the early milk (23.49% DM) to the semi-hard dough stage. (30.70%DM). After these evaluations, the corn was ensiled in 200 liter metal drums. After six months of storage, the quality of the silages was determined. The corn dry matter production was higher at the dough and semi-hard dough stages (9866 and 9896 t/ha, respectively) than in the early milk stage (7460 t/ha). The ears with the maturity showed a increase in dry matter (20.93 to 43.51%), acid detergent fiber decrease (32.46 to 18.62%), and maintainance of the crude protein content (average = 8.27%). The stalks and leaves decreased from 33.31 to 27.18% and from 34.17 to 23.66%, respectively, while the ears increased from 32.52 to 49.16% from the early milk to the semi-hard dough stages. All experimental silages attained good quality, independent of corn development stages. The corn can be ensiled from the early milk and soft dough stages without a decrease in silage quality, but the restricting factor under those conditions was a lower dry matter content (24.35 and 28.65%, respectively).

Um caso de delirio de infestacao parasitaria tratado com clomipramina

The article describes a clinical case of primary delusional parasitosis responsive to clomipramine, that had not previously respond to neuroleptic treatment. Clinical similarities of this disorder with obsessive-compulsive disorder are discussed. In conclusion, the article suggests that serotonergic antidepressants may be usefull in the treatment of patients with somatic delusional disorder.
