Fusarium solani is responsible for mass mortalities in nests of loggerhead sea turtle, Caretta caretta, in Boavista, Cape Verde

[EN] The fungus Fusarium solani (Mart.) Saccardo (1881) was found to be the cause of infections in the eggs of the sea turtle species Caretta caretta in Boavista Island, Cape Verde. Egg shells with early and severe symptoms of infection, as well as diseased embryos were sampled from infected nests. Twenty-five isolates with similar morphological characteristics were obtained. Their ITS rRNA gene sequences were similar to the GenBank sequences corresponding to F. solani and their maximum identity ranged from 95% to 100%.

[EN] The current energy model is unsustainable economically, environmentally and socially forcing develop renewable technologies that modify the concept to the responsible use. The use of low-power wind turbines has generally been limited to isolated which has slowed their development systems. The study addresses this technological niche to deepen their study of integration of electricity on a low voltage network. For this first wind potential with Homer software is evaluated. Various scenarios are simulated in "The IEEE European Test Low Voltage Feeder" network using the software OpenDSS widely used in studies of Generation Distributed by EPRI (Electric Power Research Institute).
