Respuesta agronómica de diferentes cultivares tintos de vid en zona templada

Se presenta la respuesta varietal de 6 cultivares tintos de vid, con riego deficitario controlado, en zona cálida: Barbera, Graciano, Mencía, Pinot noir, Petit verdot y Tempranillo. Teniendo en cuenta que en zona cálida hay que escoger cultivares de ciclo largo, recolección tardía, capaces de madurar manteniendo alta la acidez real y total, se concluye que los más idóneos para su cultivo en zona cálida son Barbera, por su alta acidez y Petit verdot y Graciano por su larga maduración y acidez equilibrada. Tempranillo, si bien en este trabajo presenta una respuesta adecuada, para equivalente maduración sacarimétrica a las anteriores posee menor acidez e IPT. Mencía madura mejor en situaciones frescas que en zona cálida

Clones Identification and Genetic Characterization of Garnacha Grapevine by Means of Different PCR-Derived Marker Systems

This study uses PCR-derived marker systems to investigate the extent and distribution of genetic variability of 53 Garnacha accessions coming from Italy, France and Spain. The samples studied include 28 Italian accessions (named Tocai rosso in Vicenza area; Alicante in Sicily and Elba island; Gamay perugino in Perugia province; Cannonau in Sardinia), 19 Spanish accessions of different types (named Garnacha tinta, Garnacha blanca, Garnacha peluda, Garnacha roja, Garnacha erguida, Garnacha roya) and 6 French accessions (named Grenache and Grenache noir). In order to verify the varietal identity of the samples, analyses based on 14 simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci were performed. The presence of an additional allele at ISV3 locus (151 bp) was found in four Tocai rosso accessions and in a Sardinian Cannonau clone, that are, incidentally, chimeras. In addition to microsatellite analysis, intravarietal variability study was performed using AFLP, SAMPL and M-AFLP molecular markers. AFLPs could discriminate among several Garnacha samples; SAMPLs allowed distinguishing few genotypes on the basis of their geographic origin, whereas M-AFLPs revealed plant-specific markers, differentiating all accessions. Italian samples showed the greatest variability among themselves, especially on the basis of their different provenance, while Spanish samples were the most similar, in spite of their morphological diversity.

Effectiveness of AFLPs and retrotransposon-based markers for the identification of portuguese grapevine cultivars and clones

Grapevine germplasm, including 38 of the main Portuguese cultivars and three foreign cultivars, Pinot Noir, Pinot Blanc and Chasselas, used as a reference, and 37 true-to-type clones from the Alvarinho, Arinto, Loureiro, Moscatel Galego Branco, Trajadura and Vinhão cultivars were studied using AFLP and three retrotransposon-based molecular techniques, IRAP, REMAP and SSAP. To study the retrotransposon-based polymorphisms, 18 primers based on the LTR sequences of Tvv1, Gret1 and Vine-1 were used. In the analysis of 41 cultivars, 517 IRAP, REMAP, AFLP and SSAP fragments were obtained, 83% of which were polymorphic. For IRAP, only the Tvv1Fa primer amplified DNA fragments. In the REMAP analysis, the Tvv1Fa-Ms14 primer combination only produced polymorphic bands, and the Vine-1 primers produced mainly ISSR fragments. The highest number of polymorphic fragments was found for AFLP. Both AFLP and SSAP showed a greater capacity for identifying clones, resulting in 15 and 9 clones identified, respectively. Together, all of the techniques allowed for the identification of 54% of the studied clones, which is an important step in solving one of the challenges that viticulture currently faces.

El sur también existe: las relaciones migratorias entre las islas Baleares y la Argelia francesa (1830-1962)

La Argelia francesa (1830-1962) constituyó un poderoso polo de atracción para los habitantes de las islas Baleares y del sudeste peninsular. En este artículo se analizan las relaciones migratorias y comerciales entre el archipiélago balear y su por entonces próspero vecino del sur. Además, también se estudian los diferentes exilios que vincularon las dos riberas del Mediterráneo. Para realizar este artículo se han combinado tanto fuentes primarias como la bibliografía existente.

Jordi de Manuel i el futur: la justa transgressió

Article que analitza l’obra de Jordi de Manuel, creador de la nissaga de l’inspector de policia Marc Sergiot. Una veu original, plenament consolidada, que representa la modernitat, la permeabilitat i la capacitat de reinvenció del gènere en llengua catalana. Una producció arriscada, que adquireix l’excel·lència en la seva dimensió de conjunt, com un corpus complet i complex d’indubtable densitat intel·lectual.

Rafael Tasis, els fonaments d’un gènere

Rafael Tasis fou un escriptor català pioner de la novel·la policíaca o detectivesca. Va ser també un destacat crític literari, llibreter, periodista i activista polític. És autor d’una trilogia formada per les obres La bíblia valenciana, Es hora de plegar i Un crim al Paralelo. Les seves aportacions teòriques a la novel·la i, especialment, a la de gènere, van ser de molta envergadura, demostració de la seva enorme capacitat de treball. Tasis va teoritzar sobre el gènere policíac i s’adonà, abans que ningú a Catalunya, de la importància que agafaria la novel·la negra americana. També va apostar per un escriptor inèdit, Manuel de Pedrolo, de qui va considerar que seria el novel·lista català més considerable del segle XX. Com a novel·lista i crític literari va donar testimoni de la vida i els ambients barcelonins i de l’atractiu de la utilització del material urbà de Barcelona com a argument de novel·les. La figura de Tasis respon a la de l'intel·lectual preocupat pels afers públics i, de manera més concreta, a la de l'escriptor en acte de servei permanent.

Galeria de espelhos: figuras da representação em François Truffaut

Esta dissertação consiste numa análise de quatro filmes de François Truffaut, nomeadamente La mariée était en noir (1968), La sirène du Mississipi (1969), L’histoire d’Adèle H. (1975) e La chambre verte (1978). O meu estudo centra-se nalgumas figuras pertencentes a sistemas de representação, que ocupam posições de relevo nas narrativas e na imagética destes filmes. Assim, considero o tratamento dado a fotografias, pinturas, desenhos ou esculturas no quadro maior da imagem fílmica, e atento na caracterização de certas personagens enquanto, elas mesmas, propiciadoras de uma reflexão acerca da imagem. Finalmente, procuro repensar o modo como, associando esse trabalho sobre objectos representativos a um pensamento sobre a morte, Truffaut formula uma meditação sobre o cinema enquanto arte intimamente relacionada com a noção de fantasma.

Schengen Anniversary - EPC Special Collection

To mark the 30th anniversary of the Schengen Agreement, the EPC has put together a special collection of EPC papers on Schengen's developments between 2011 and 2014. Signed by France, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg on 14 June 1985, the Schengen Agreement has paved the way for the development of one of the EU’s most symbolic achievements: the freedom of movement without internal border checks. Although the agreement has been one of the EU’s biggest successes, the Schengen story has not always been a ‘long fleuve tranquille’, particularly in recent years. This year’s anniversary offers the opportunity to revisit the latest developments in the Schengen cooperation and look back at the accomplishments of this landmark agreement.

Femme fatale: influências na cultura visual e cinema

A Femme Fatale é a personagem que, através dos seus atributos e capacidades, seduz e engana em prol do seu querer. Encontra-se, principalmente, retratada em géneros cinematográficos como noir, terror, suspense e ação. Mas, também, noutros meios como banda desenhada, videojogos, publicidade. Possui características comuns na maior parte dos filmes (criminosa, fortemente sexual, poderosa, perigosa, inteligente, manipuladora, destrutiva...). No entanto, a mulher fatal pode assumir géneros, idades e maneiras de agir diferentes (pode seduzir e manipular, pode seduzir e matar, pode seduzir, manipular e levar alguém a matar). O propósito do presente estudo consiste em saber como tal personagem, com traços tão vincados, surgiu na história, como se tornou popular, como é representada no cinema até aos dias de hoje e qual o seu “potencial cultural” futuro.

(Table 1) Age determination of sediment cores MD925-2002 and MD03-2690

The compilation of results obtained on three giant piston cores from the Whittard, Shamrock and Guilcher turbidite levees reveals a high-resolution stratigraphic record for the Bay of Biscay. Due to the abundance of reworked sediments in these sedimentary environments, a specific methodological approach, based on an X-ray-assisted subsampling phase associated with sedimentological, geochemical and micropalaeontological analyses, was implemented. With an accurate chronological framework, this multi-proxy investigation provides observations on the 'Fleuve Manche' palaeoriver and the British-Irish Ice Sheet (BIS) histories over the last 20,000 years. The results obtained highlight the direct influence of the decay of the BIS on the Bay of Biscay deep-sea clastic sedimentation during the last European deglacial phase. During this period, the annual BIS cycle of meltwater seems enough to generate seasonal turbidity currents associated with exceptional sedimentation rates in all the Celtic and Armorican turbidite systems. With very high sedimentation rates, the turbidite levees represent the main deep-sea clastic depositional area. Long coring combined with a very careful subsampling method can provide continuous high-resolution palaeoenvironmental signals.
