Geckos are a large group of lizards characterized by a rich variety of species, different modes of sex determination and diverse karyotypes. In spite of many unresolved questions on lizards' phylogeny and taxonomy, the karyotypes of most geckos have been studied by conventional cytogenetic methods only. We used flow-sorted chromosome-specific painting probes of Japanese gecko (Gekko japonicus), Mediterranean house gecko (Hemidactylus turcicus) and flat-tailed house gecko (Hemidactylus platyurus) to reveal homologous regions and to study karyotype evolution in seven gecko species (Gekko gecko, G. japonicus, G. ulikovskii, G. vittatus, Hemidactylus frenatus, H. platyurus and H. turcicus). Generally, the karyotypes of geckos were found to be conserved, but we revealed some characteristic rearrangements including both fissions and fusions in Hemidactylus. The karyotype of H. platyurus contained a heteromorphic pair in all female individuals, where one of the homologues had a terminal DAPI-negative and C-positive heterochromatic block that might indicate a putative sex chromosome. Among two male individuals studied, only one carried such a polymorphism, and the second one had none, suggesting a possible ZZ/ZW sex determination in some populations of this species. We found that all Gekko species have retained the putative ancestral karyotype, whilst the fission of the largest ancestral chromosome occurred in the ancestor of modern Hemidactylus species. Three common fissions occurred in the ancestor of Mediterranean house and flat-tailed house geckos, suggesting their sister group relationships. PCR-assisted mapping on flow-sorted chromosome libraries with conserved DMRT1 gene primers in G. japonicus indicates the localization of DMRT1 gene on chromosome 6.

The Frances Anderson Gilmer Papers consists of electrostatic photocopies of the following: genealogical records; biographical sketches; Records relating to the Sons of the American Revolution (SAR) and Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR); copy of the “The Revolutionary Soldiers of Catholic Presbyterian Church of Chester County, South Carolina" by Mary Wylie Strange; Diary of S. T. Anderson: Confederate Prisoner of War 1864-1865 by Margaret Anderson Harden (1908). Lt. Samuel Thompson of Anderson (1838-1894) was a Confederate soldier during the American Civil War in Co. D 1st South Carolina Cavalry. The genealogical records relate to the following families: Anderson, Wylie. McCalla, McKown, Yeamans, Moore (i.e., Governor James Moore) and Adair.

Radio telemetry has become a standard tool for studying the behavior, physiology, life history traits, and population dynamics of marine mammals. Radio transmitters typically are attached to the hind flippers of pinnipeds or glued to the fur using marine epoxy or other cyanocrylare adhesives (Fedak et al. 1983, Bengtson 1993, Jeffries et al. 1993). Longterm data acquisition is difficult, however, because radio-flipper transmitters commonly tear from the webbing of the flipper and instruments that are glued to the fur are shed during the seasonal molt.

The late eighteenth-century author Frances Burney is best known for popularizing the “comedy of manners,” a literary style later adopted by Jane Austen. Burney’s novels, journals, and plays offer an intriguing commentary on contemporary social customs and etiquette. In particular, she voices the concerns and desires of women, leading scholars to focus on the feminist overtones of her writing. Although she carefully examined female roles in the household and family structure, Burney also provided an insider’s perspective into London high life. As an acclaimed author and member of the royal court, Burney offers a rare insight into the lives of the urban elite. For these reasons, I have chosen to examine three of her works within the context of their London setting. In Evelina, Cecilia, and The Witlings, Burney examines women’s struggle for independence against the backdrop of the city. These works offer a new interpretation of the female Bildungsroman, or coming of age story. Burney shows how London life influences her heroines’ expectations, ambitions and desires. Evelina’s coming of age centers around the quest for family and social acceptance, while the two Cecilias of Cecilia and The Witlings confront the financial pressures that accompany their inheritance. Ultimately, the three protagonists learn important lessons that are specific to city life. Although Burney concludes each story with the heroine’s marriage, her focus is not on romance, as has been suggested, but on the cultural landscape of the city. Coming of age in her stories is inextricably connected to the diverse challenges and opportunities presented to urban women.

Esta investigación se propone analizar, en las instancias I y II de Francés del Profesorado de Arte con Orientación en Danzas Clásicas, el proceso de adquisición de la lengua francesa en lo referido a las estructuras morfo-sintácticas y contenidos léxicos propios de la especialidad de los alumnos. La necesidad de la enseñanza de esta lengua surge del hecho de que, por razones históricas y técnicas, el francés se utiliza internacionalmente para designar los pasos y figuras de la danza clásica. Pero, por otra parte, el aprendizaje de este idioma debe también facilitar el acceso a saberes específicos e información actualizada, articulándose en forma directa con los contenidos propios del campo disciplinar de los destinatarios del curso. Por lo tanto, la enseñanza del francés responde, según la demanda institucional, a criterios de utilidad instrumental, dado que los alumnos deberán emplear este vocabulario de especialidad, tanto en el código oral como en el código escrito, en su futuro desempeño profesional, y además necesitarán desarrollar habilidades y estrategias de lectura destinadas a posibilitar el acceso al contenido de documentos de carácter disciplinar redactados en la lengua estudiada. Se trata pues de un curso de francés con objetivos específicos (FOS), pero estos objetivos y los contenidos correspondientes difieren en gran medida de los de la asignatura Francés Instrumental, que se dicta en las carreras de grado de las universidades argentinas Por lo tanto, en este trabajo se procurará analizar los siguientes aspectos: adquisición y / o afianzamiento del vocabulario en francés relacionado con la especialidad, desarrollo de habilidades orales mediante la práctica de la pronunciación, la acentuación, la entonación y el ritmo propios de la lengua francesa, descubrimiento y adquisición de las estructuras y reglas generales y frecuentes de la lengua extranjera, adquisición de estrategias de lecto-comprensión de textos disciplinares redactados en francés, incluyendo las capacidades de inferir y de analizar el paratexto como factores de recuperación de conocimientos previos. Este análisis deberá conducir a un diagnostico de dicho proceso y a la propuesta de acciones que, ya sea que se circunscriban a la cátedra o que se extiendan al campo institucional o interinstitucional, tengan por finalidad optimizar la enseñanzaaprendizaje del francés con los objetivos específicos anteriormente señalados.
