Submergence is one of the major constrains affecting wetland plants, with inevitable impacts on their physiology and productivity. Global warming as a driving force of sea level rise, tend to increase the submersion periods duration. Photosynthesis biophysical probing arise as an important tool to understand the energetics underlying plant feedback to these constrains. As in previous studies with Spartina marit...
O Síndroma de Williams tem uma expressão fenotípica variável, que inclui um fácies característico, atraso do desenvolvimento psicomotor, cardiopatia e outras anomalias, nomeadamente renais ou esqueléticas. Recentemente foi identificada nestes doentes a presença de uma microdelecção de dimensões variáveis no cromossoma 7 (7q11.23), que inclui o gene da elastina. O rastreio desta microdelecção, através da técnica...
An interferometric setup for measuring Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD), was tested. It uses a low-coherence technique in a Michelson interferometer to determine the PMD values in two reels, measuring the Differential Group Delay (DGD). The low-coherence source bounds the minimum value of DGD detected to 0,13 ps, leading to a minimum value detected around 0,14 ps. The measured PMD mean value for one reel, in ...
BACKGROUND: X-linked intellectual disability is a common cause of inherited cognitive deficit affecting mostly males. There are several genetic causes implicated in this condition, which has hampered the establishment of an accurate diagnosis. We developed a multiplex-PCR assay for the mutational hotspot regions of the FMR1, AFF2 and ARX genes. METHODS: The multiplex-PCR was validated in a cohort of 100 males...

A alvenaria consiste no sistema estrutural construtivo mais antigo e tem vindo a ser aplicada desde os primórdios da humanidade, verificando-se magníficas construções históricas e na arquitetura vernacular. No entanto, através dos eventos sísmicos que têm ocorrido nas mais variadas partes do mundo, tem-se verificado que a alvenaria não armada apresenta frequentemente um desempenho inadequado face à ocorrência d...
Twenty primiparous and multiparous Alpine breed goats at approximately 80 days of lactation were used in this experiment. The animals were housed individually in metal cages and distributed according to milk production in five 4 × 4 Latin squares. The experimental diets used in the experiment presented concentrate:forage ratio of 65:35. The treatments were characterized by increasing levels of 0, 33, 67 and 100...
