The morphology of a sample of four bulls and 43 cows, presumed to be descendants of the extinct cattle breed ‘Algarvia’ (AG), was used to assign their relationship with animals from other Portuguese autochthonous breeds – Arouquesa (AR), Barrosa˜ (BA), Cachena (CA), Marinhoa (MA), Maronesa (MO), Minhota (MN), Mirandesa (MI), (only bulls), Alentejana (AL), Garvonesa (GA), Mertolenga (ME) and Preta (PR). Standard...
Although carob (Ceratonia siliqua L.) is of great economic importance little is still known about the pattern of genetic variation within this species. Morphological characteristics based on 31 fruit and seeds of continuous characters determinant for agro-industrial uses, were compared with RAPD and AFLP markers for assessing genetic distances in 68 accessions of carob trees, from different cultivars, varieties...
A broca da bananeira ou moleque, Cosmopolites sordidus (Germar, 1824) (Coleoptera, Curculionidae), constitui-se na principal praga da bananeira, provocando perdas de até 80% na produção. As larvas são causadoras do dano por produzirem galerias no rizoma, enfraquecendo a planta e reduzindo o peso do cacho, que acaba tombando pela ação do vento. No entanto, por estarem protegidas dentro do rizoma, a verificação d...

Expression of POU1F1 gene, a member of the POU homeodomain family of transcription factors, is necessary for normal differentiation, development and survival of three anterior pituitary cell types (thyrotrophs, somatotrophs and lactotrophs) and for the proper expression of growth hormone (GH ), prolactin (PRL), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH ) genes and POU1F1 gene itself. Alternative splicing forms of this g...
A morphological study was carried out to characterize eight Portuguese cattle breeds by the application of numerical taxonomic methods.
This paper describes the construction of a kit of molecular model for illustration of molecular structure in chemical class using cheap materials. The atoms were represented by plastic spheres and the bonds between the atoms were made from plastic straws which were cut in the required length using a scale of 1.6 cm corresponding to 100 pm. Examples of adaptations made in this kit for didactical application are ...
