Código CoAN 2010: el primer código de corregulación audiovisual de España
Authors: Muñoz Saldaña Mercedes
Published: July 2022

El 17 de noviembre de 2009 se puso en marcha el primer Código de corregulación audiovisual en España: “Código de Corregulación para la Calidad de los Contenidos Audiovisuales en Navarra 2010”. Dicho Código resulta pionero en este ámbito y, teniendo en cuenta el contenido de la recién aprobada Ley General Audiovisual, se presenta como un ejemplo del trabajo a realizar por el futuro Consejo Estatal de Medios Audiovisuales (CEMA) o la autoridad reguladora correspondiente.

Esta iniciativa muestra la necesidad de aplicar los Códigos de corregulación, como animan las instituciones Europeas en su última Directiva de 2010, a la regulación audiovisual nacional. El análisis del fracaso de la regulación tradicional y de la ineficacia de la autorregulación; la delimitación conceptual de la corregulación como instrumento diferenciado de la autorregulación y de la regulación; y la explicación del valor añadido de esta herramienta en su aplicación a ámbitos concretos demuestran la necesidad y ventajas de aplicar la corregulación a objetivos como la protección de menores, el pluralismo o la alfabetización mediática.
El impulso político a la Sociedad de la Información de la Comunidad Valenciana
Authors: Papí-Gálvez Natalia , Feliu García Emilio
Published: July 2022

Los ámbitos regionales se consideran claves en el impulso político de la Sociedad de la Información a nivel internacional. Las iniciativas autonómicas pretenden reforzar y completar las previstas a nivel nacional. El artículo analiza la penetración de las TICs en la Comunidad Valenciana desde 1996 hasta 2008. Trata de comprobar que las iniciativas previstas por el gobierno valenciano hayan producido un impacto positivo. La estrategia metodológica se basa en la evaluación comparativa.Los indicadores se seleccionan según el modelo de evaluación de políticas del Plan Avanza. Se extraen los datos de fuentes estadísticas oficiales (INE). Se aplican tres pruebas para contrastar las hipótesis (r2 pearson, chi-cuadrado y t-student). Los resultados muestran que no se puede afirmar que las acciones llevadas a cabo por el gobierno valenciano hayan tenido un efecto positivo en su sociedad, al menos, con mayor intensidad que las acciones realizadas por el gobierno central a nivel nacional. La explicación puede radicar en los objetivos específicos de la estrategia política llevada a cabo por el gobierno valenciano. Se ha centrado fundamentalmente en la e-Administración. No predominan los proyectos relacionados con la aplicación de las nuevas tecnologías en el sector empresarial. Igualmente, se sitúa en segundo plano la integración de las nuevas tecnologías en la vida cotidiana, y esto es así pese a que el ciudadano constituye un actor central en la agenda internacional.
La crisis de la TDT local pública en España: el caso de Cataluña
Authors: Guimerà i Orts Josep Àngel , Alborch-Gil Federica
Published: July 2022

El artículo describe y analiza el estado de la televisión digital terrestre local (TDT-L) pública en Cataluña justo después del apagón analógico de abril de 2010. Los resultados muestran que sólo 12 de los 37 canales públicos previstos estaban emitiendo y que sólo cinco más podían hacerlo a medio plazo. Estos datos indican que la televisión pública local vive una crisis en el contexto de la migración digital, ya que estos canales sufren graves limitaciones para nacer y el apagón implica la desaparición de emisoras analógicas históricas.

El artículo se basa en una investigación cualitativa en el transcurso de la cual se ha entrevistado en profundidad a representantes de los 37 canales previstos. Los objetivos del artículo son, por una parte, describir el modelo de TDT-L vigente y su estado de implantación en Cataluña en mayo de 2010. Por otra parte, aportar elementos interpretativos que expliquen la situación de crisis identificada. Finalmente, aportar conocimiento que permita formular hipótesis sobre el estado del sector en el resto de España. Los resultados ponen de manifiesto que los problemas de la TDT-L pública tienen su origen en las políticas de implantación digital de los gobiernos español y catalán, que no han tenido en cuenta la realidad analógica preexistente –sobre todo el primero. En este sentido, el caso catalán aporta indicios sobre la situación en el conjunto de España.
Modelos de periodismo local y estrategias ante la crisis: el caso del News & Observer
Authors: González Esteban José Luis
Published: July 2022

En la actual crisis global de la prensa tradicional, algunos periódicos regionales y locales han sobrevivido y salido fortalecidos gracias a estrategias adecuadas que se han planificado durante los últimos años y que ahora están dando sus frutos. Este trabajo de investigación pretende avanzar en uno de esos modelos, descifrando las claves de un caso concreto como es el periódico norteamericano News & Observer, en el estado de Carolina del Norte. Este diario del grupo McClatchy ha apostado por un modelo híbrido papel-online, por cuidados espacios de participación ciudadana y por una prensa hiperlocal, dotada de personalidad propia. De igual modo, la investigación pretende realizar un análisis comparativo de aquel modelo respecto a un caso español, el del diario Información, en Alicante, dentro del grupo Prensa Ibérica.
Camino de Santiago y Xacobeo 2010 en los portales turísticos de las Comunidades Autónomas
Authors: Fernández Poyatos Mª-Dolores , Aguirregoitia Martínez Ainhoa , Boix Martínez Belén
Published: July 2022

Este artículo analiza los portales web turísticos de las comunidades autónomas españolas por donde cruzan rutas históricas jacobeas. Considerando que tanto el Camino de Santiago como la celebración del Xacobeo 2010 son oportunidades turísticas para estas comunidades, esta investigación se ha planteado como objetivo principal determinar el tratamiento que de ellos han realizado en sus portales web dichas autonomías; para ello, se valora, primero, el grado de calidad de las webs y, segundo, se comprueba si en los portales web se ha considerado el año jacobeo y el producto turístico Camino de Santiago para promocionar sus propios territorios autonómicos. En la investigación, se ha revisado la bibliografía y definido los conceptos utilizados; se han seleccionado las variables para medir los parámetros de calidad web y se ha realizado un análisis del contenido y diseño de las webs turísticas. Como conclusión, se constata que el portal web de Galicia es el que más exhaustivamente trata el Xacobeo 2010 y el Camino de Santiago. El resto de autonomías ofrece en sus portales turísticos información sobre el Xacobeo 2010 y el Camino dispar, que varía de unas a otras. Por la trascendencia del acontecimiento turístico del Xacobeo 2010 y la importancia de Internet como herramienta de comunicación, el grupo de investigación tiene como objetivo realizar un nuevo análisis de los portales institucionales una vez finalice el año 2010.
Una profesión titulada “Periodismo”
Authors: Fernández Areal Manuel
Published: July 2022

Las nuevas tecnologías pueden favorecer la impresión de que el periodismo, como profesión, llegará a desaparecer en plazo más o menos breve. La facilidad de cualquiera para acceder a las fuentes de información, así como para difundir –a través de Internet– todo tipo de mensajes con inusitada rapidez parecen abonar la idea de que ya no será necesaria capacitación técnica alguna, ni siquiera un bagaje cultural específico, ni mucho menos una titulación que garantice un ejercicio responsable y adecuado de la moderna comunicación social. La Federación de Asociaciones de Periodistas de España (FAPE), en su Borrador de Estatuto Profesional apuesta por una profesión titulada universitariamente, y su Comisión de Quejas viene desarrollando una acertada labor en orden a la autorregulación y autocontrol profesionales en beneficio de la sociedad. Hay, pues, razones válidas para el optimismo. El Periodismo, como profesión, no va a desaparecer, y quizá haya llegado el momento de que, de verdad, sea una profesión titulada.
Evaluación heurística de las web de franquicias en el sector Óptica y Optometría
Authors: Martínez Martínez Luis Enrique , Monserrat-Gauchi Juan M.
Published: July 2022

El objetivo de esta investigación es determinar el grado de calidad, entendida en términos de interactividad y usabilidad de los sitios web de las empresas franquiciadoras españolas pertenecientes al sector de óptica-optometría. Para ello, se revisó la bibliografía existente y se definió el concepto de interactividad o usabilidad en las páginas web. Además, se eligieron una serie de indicadores (Nielsen) para parametrizar o medir dicho nivel de interactividad. Se definieron los públicos objetivo para la empresa franquiciadora y se procedió al análisis de las páginas web de las empresas del sector óptica-optometría. Se utilizaron técnicas de análisis que limitan la observación a un solo momento en el tiempo, con el objetivo de describir la situación actual. El objetivo fue determinar si las web están siendo diseñadas y por lo tanto, usadas como catálogos corporativos o por el contrario favorecen la participación de sus públicos (clientes, franquiciados actuales y franquiciados potenciales) estableciéndose así un proceso de retroalimentación en el que los públicos tienen un papel activo. Como conclusión, se corrobora la hipótesis de la que parte la investigación y se afirma que las web de las franquicias del sector Óptica-optometría no están diseñadas ofreciendo un alto nivel de interactividad y accesibilidad de la comunicación a través de Internet con sus distintos públicos objetivo. La interacción es de bajo nivel, desaprovechando así las ventajas del medio Internet. El grupo de investigación apuesta por un nivel de interactividad mayor, que en consonancia con la estrategia de marketing y comunicación de la franquicia ofrecería un valor añadido a la marca y permitiría tener en cuenta las aportaciones de clientes, franquiciados y potenciales franquiciados de la enseña.
La absorción de la política por el espectáculo de lo real. Estudio de caso: El Objetivo
Authors: González Requena Jesús , Torres Hortelano Lorenzo
Published: July 2022

Hasta hace bien poco el ámbito de la política, si bien alimentaba el espectáculo televisivo, lo hacía en el contexto de géneros ‒los telediarios y los programas de información política‒ cuyas convenciones conducían a contener en cierto límite su tratamiento espectacular. Pero en los últimos tiempos se ha producido un cambio notable sobre el que se centra el contenido de este trabajo: se trata de la absorción del ámbito de la política por el espectáculo de lo real, donde ya no existe ningún límite para la espectacularización de los temas, los personajes y los conflictos políticos. Para abordar esta temática y testar tal transformación, el texto se centra en el análisis, tanto cuantitativo como cualitativo ‒desde la metodología del análisis textual‒ de una emisión del programa El objetivo, de la cadena española La Sexta. El resultado del análisis conduce a la constatación de una transformación profunda del formato de la entrevista que se manifiesta en que el conductor de la misma adquiere un protagonismo mayor que el del entrevistado tanto por lo que se refiere a su insistente presencia visual como por el modo en el que impone las reglas del discurso, interrumpe constantemente al entrevistado y exige del mismo respuestas de alto rendimiento espectacular. Finalmente, se constata como esa intensificación del rendimiento espectacular pasa por el énfasis concedido a los temas que apuntan a la degradación de los contenidos y las actitudes políticas.
Modeling the Health and Economic Impact of Substandard and Falsified Medicines: A Review of Existing Models and Approaches
Authors: Ozawa Sachiko , Higgins Colleen R. , Nwokike Jude I. , Phanouvong Souly
Published: July 2022

Substandard and falsified medicines are harmful to patients, causing prolonged illness, side effects, and preventable deaths. Moreover, they have an impact on the health system and society more broadly by leading to additional care, higher disease burden, productivity losses and loss of trust in health care. Models that estimate the health and economic impacts of substandard and falsified medicines can be useful for regulators to contextualize the problem and to make an economic case for solutions. Yet these models have not been systematically catalogued to date. We reviewed existing models that estimate the health and economic impact of substandard and falsified medicines to describe the varying modeling approaches and gaps in knowledge. We compared model characteristics, data sources, assumptions, and limitations. Seven models were identified. The models assessed the impact of antimalarial (n = 5) or antibiotic (n = 2) quality at a national (n = 4), regional (n = 2), or global (n = 1) level. Most models conducted uncertainty analysis and provided ranges around potential outcomes. We found that models are lacking for other medicines, few countries’ data have been analyzed, and capturing population heterogeneity remains a challenge. Providing the best estimates of the impact of substandard and falsified medicines on a level that is actionable for decision-makers is important. To enable this, research on the impact of substandard and falsified medicines should be expanded to more medicine types and classes and tailored to more countries that are affected, with greater specificity.

Authors: Minder Viktoriiа , Maliuha Volodymyr , Yukhnovskyi Vasyl , Brovko Fedir , Khryk Vasyl
Published: July 2022

Vegetation growing on the slopes counteracts the development of erosion processes, directly affects the improvement of soil properties, which are largely determined by the morphological structure of the root system. We studied the development and distribution of the root systems of trees and shrubs on the slopes with different steepness in a forest park in the northern environs of Kyiv (Ukraine). The method of complete excavation of plants growing under the conditions of composite topography, in the park stands employed near ravines, where the plants were exposed due to erosion, was chosen for the research. The samples of root systems of 15 trees and 5 shrubs selected from different locations of growth places were examined: under the canopy, in canopy windows, in the open space, and at the slopes of different expositions with steepness from 6° to 39°. The plants aged up to 13 years, up to 3.5 m high, with crown diameter up to 130 cm and root neck thickness up to 80 mm were selected from undergrowth and understory. The depth of penetration of the root systems into the soil and the order of their branching were measured for further studying the anti-erosion properties of root systems. The area of horizontal projection of the root system to the crown diameter ratio, the soil saturation with roots and the intensity of root system branching were determined. Numerical indicators of the spatial structure of root systems are extremely important when assessing the studied trees and shrubs.
Key words: park planting, undergrowth, understore, soil saturation with roots, depth of soil penetration, branching intensity
Written Pole Motors – A few Aspects
Authors: B. Ranadev Manjunath , Chakrasali R. L.
Published: July 2022

Electric motors are the main drives of today’s industries and consume nearly two third of total electric energy generated. The motors of capacity more than 10-15 hp range are needed for tiny commercial and agriculture loads. At present induction motors are widely deployed to meet these requirements but causes effect on the power quality and other connected loads. An attempt is made in this paper to reveal the performance of a written pole motor against that of induction motor. In written-pole technology the rotor field magnetic polarity changes. It is feasible even during the operation of the motor. Hence this technology provides flexibility to produce number of poles which has a correlation with the rotating speed of the motor. This enhances the performance of the motor throughout the operating speed range. Thus a constant frequency variable speed machine can be obtained by changing number of poles. Written-Pole motors manifest supreme starting characteristics, hence preferred to accelerate high inertia loads. It is inferential that two parameters stand out as important viz. improved efficiency and limited starting current when the written pole motors are compared with other motors.

Authors: Sadvi P.
Published: July 2022

A base line survey was conducted during the year 2020 in adopted village, Veldurthi of Regional Agricultural Research Station, Polasa, Jagtial for understanding the demography, cultivation practices, land holding, occupation, social status, literacy level, cropping pattern, ITKs etc. and gaps in terms of adoption of new agricultural technologies/varieties, constraints faced by the rural people in agriculture. Participatory rural appraisal techniques i.e. Social mapping, resource mapping, Venn diagram , Matrix ranking were employed with the involvement of farmers and using a structured schedule for collecting the base line survey data. Adoption index was used to identify the gap in adoption of new technologies/varieties and percentage change was also used to show the increase or decrease over the years. The study report shows that, majority of the farmers belong to marginal farmers (43.8%). The adoption index/gap is more in Turmeric (100%) followed by Paddy (81%) Vegetables (75%) Sesamum (37%). Hence, there is a need to introduce the HYVs for adoption by the farmers mostly in Turmeric and paddy followed by vegetables and sesame. It was observed that the no. of cultivators were decreased to an extent of (19%) from 2011 to 2020 due to decrease in yields and lack of remunerative agricultural income. Hence, new agricultural technologies/varieties/knowledge on remunerative cropping systems and vocational trainings must be conducted to the farmers for improvement in their socio economic status and motivate towards farming.
Land Use Dynamics Across Rural-urban Transition of Bengaluru
Authors: Harishkumar H.V.
Published: July 2022

Growth and transition of various land use categories (LUC’s) in urban, peri-urban and rural areas of Bengaluru North was analysed using compound annual growth rate (CAGR) and Markov chain analysis. Area under non-agricultural uses has increased significantly across all areas. But, its growth is relatively high in urban and peri-urban more specifically in Devanahalli taluk (3.62 %) where LUC’s like cultivable waste (-0.72 %), permanent pasture (-2.11 %), tree and groves (-2.26 %) and net sown area (-1.20 %) have seen significant decline in their growth due to relatively more developmental pressures from augmented urbanization effects of Bengaluru. In urban, the net sown area has decreased significantly with CAGR of 4.62 per cent (district) and 3.9 per cent (taluk). In rural, permanent pastures and cultivable waste categories seen significant decline in their growth due to their nature of property right i.e. commons. Transitional probability matrix (TPM) of urban revealed that, area under non-agricultural uses, forest and net sown area were most stable whereas, permanent pasture, barren and uncultivable area were least stable on the basis of their probabilities. Similarly in peri-urban, area put to non-agricultural uses, net sown area were most stable whereas, barren and uncultivable area, cultivable waste and other fallow land were least stable. In rural current fallow category is least stable which is influenced by rainfall.

Economics of Oil Seed Exports in India: An Application of Holt-Forecasts
Authors: T Kumareswaran,
Published: July 2022

This article intended to examine the export performance of oil seed crops in India from 1987 to 2019 using the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR), Cuddy-Della Valle instability index, as well as forecast export quantity and value to 2025. The analysis focuses mainly on two major oil seed crops: groundnut and soyabean. The research of oil seed crop export growth trends over time revealed a positive growth rate for both export quantity and export unit value. The potential for Indian oil seed crop in the world market during the post-liberalization period were shown by the strong growth rates of soyabean goods combined with high export instability indices. When compared to soyabean, the annual growth rate of groundnut was the lowest, with instability showing a wide range across the entire period. Holt models were created in this paper to estimate oil seed export quantity and prices, with the top models chosen by comparing Akaike Information Criteria (AIC), Mean Absolute Percent Error (MAPE). Further, groundnut export quantity and price forecasts showed positive development throughout the forecast period, whereas, soyabean export price forecasts showed a 0.01 percent increase from 2021 to 2025. To improve the worldwide performance of the Indian oil seed industry, the government should make appropriate amendments to oil seed export policies and domestic supportive measures, as well as adopt appropriate value adds and market diversification strategies.

The study aims to examine the status of Gothan and Godhan Nyay Yojna in Chhattisgarh India. The study requisite secondary data, which were collected from the site of government of Chhattisgarh, Agriculture Development and Farmers Welfare Raipur Chhattisgarh and from different articles. The study reveals that Chhattisgarh government launched ‘Gothan’ and ‘Godhan Nyay Yojna’ under the ambitious Suraji village scheme on 20th of July 2020. The concept of developing Gothan for a village is gathering all the cattle in a single place to provide them food and health facilities e.g., timely vaccination of cattle. In Godhan Nyay Yojna from the first phase of scheme the state government procures cow dung at ` 2 per k.g. from the farmers and cattle rearers of the state. Later, cow dung was bought from the farmers and livestock rearers by Self help groups itself. The procuring of cow dung is done at the Gothan. The procured cow dung turned into vermicompost by the woman self-help group and organic manure sale to the farmers at ` 10 per kilogram. Besides preparing organic manure, the dung is used to prepare various other useful items such as Diya, flower vase, etc. These schemes widely promote organic farming in the State as well as help livestock rearers and women self-help groups into a profitable business. The finding of the Study also reveals that Out of total approved Gothans about 61.91 per cent Gothans was fully constructed. In Bilaspur Division there were maximum numbers of Gothans. In Bastar division there were highest 75.95 per cent of sales of vermicompost and also in Bastar Division there were highest 74.21 percent of sales of Supercompost.

Authors: Marie Elvire Nokam Abena
Published: July 2022

Introduction: Maxillofacial Trauma (MFT) is an important condition because of its frequency, facial involvement and severity of injury. The aim of the study was to determine the lesion profile of patients suffering from maxillofacial trauma in three hospitals in Yaoundé.

Methodology: This was a descriptivestudy that took place over a period of 7 months during 2022; it included all maxillofacial trauma patients received in three hospitals in the city of Yaoundé. The sampling was consecutive and exhaustive. The data collected from the files of the patients recruited over five years from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2020 were recorded in a pre-designed data processing form which was divided into socio-demographic data, clinical aspects and circumstances of occurrence of MFT. The information collected was entered and analyzed using SPSS version 25.0 software.

Results: Out of 491 patient records collected, 293 patients were included, i.e., a prevalence of 59.67% of exploitable documents. The male gender predominated with 75.1% of cases, with a gender ratio of 3.01. The age group 30 to 40 years was the most represented with a mean age of 34.4 years and extreme values of 5 and 83 years. Secondary education was found in 60% of cases and 73.7% of patientswere workers. Maxillofacial trauma was caused by Road Traffic Accidents (RTA) in 71% of cases. Osteoarticular tissues were affected in 79.5% of cases with unifocal fractures (50.9%) and mandibular fractures (54.4%). The dental-alveolar injuries (25.3%) were of the type of dental expulsion (51.3%) and partial dislocation (40.5%). Mucosal trauma was associated in 56.3% of cases, with wounds in 47.9%.

Conclusion: Maxillofacial trauma primarily affects male workers in their third decade. They mainly result from RTA with polymorphous clinical incidences. The lesions may be osteoarticular or not associated with alveolar-dental or mucosal trauma.
Advocacy e transição energética: o caso do fórum de energias renováveis de Roraima
Authors: Santos da Silva André Andriw
Published: July 2022

A transição energética no Brasil se diferencia de outros processos implementados em nações desenvolvidas e em desenvolvimento. Dada elevada presença de fontes renováveis nas matrizes energética e elétrica nacional, a transição aparentemente já ocorreu no país. Contudo, identificam-se na Amazônia brasileira uma forte dependência de geração elétrica com combustível fóssil que, além de ineficiente, possui um custo de operação elevado. Tal fato motivou a formação de redes de advocacy em prol da transição energética regional baseada em tecnologias renováveis. Assim, este trabalho questiona como a rede local de advocacy está comprometida com a transição energética amazônica. A hipótese do estudo é que a rede local de advocacy tende a adotar propostas pragmáticas de transição, caracterizadas pela adoção de tecnologias renováveis sem romper bruscamente o regime dos combustíveis fósseis. Neste sentido, o objetivo do artigo é analisar os grupos de interesse que formam a rede local de advocacy favorável à inserção das tecnologias renováveis na Amazônia, concentrando-se no caso do Fórum de Energias Renováveis de Roraima (FERR). Os procedimentos metodológicos adotados para atingir o objetivo foram determinados por uma análise integrativa que contou com uma revisão da literatura sobre o papel dos atores na construção do sistema específico de inovação tecnológica (SEIT) e um estudo de caso sobre a atuação do FERR na transição energética em Roraima. Para fundamentar o estudo de caso, revisou-se notícias e material audiovisual do FERR entre 2019 e abril de 2021. Após combinar o referencial teórico e o estudo de caso, o estudo concluiu que os membros do FERR preferem soluções pragmáticas, que não rompem bruscamente com o regime vigente, uma vez que a rede cumpre parcialmente as funções de um SEIT, carecendo de apoio da sociedade e da indústria para buscar propostas mais ambiciosas de transição energética junto ao governo brasileiro.

Assessment is one of the components of the teaching process. In education, the quality of assessing student learning outcomes is a criterion for the quality of education. With that role, assessment is expected to bring a lot of value to learners, but in reality, there are still many difficulties. The purpose of the study is to understand the factors affecting the quality of assessment of learning outcomes from the perspective of students in primary education. The exploratory factor analysis (EFA) method was used to extract the factors and was performed through SPSS software. The results from 893 students of 6 universities show that there are 8 main factors affecting the quality of assessment of learning outcomes including assessment principles, feedback methods, information-handling instructions, satisfaction levels, facilitating conditions, relationship with teaching elements, self-assessment and assessment process. The findings of this study enrich the theoretical framework and serve as a reference for educators and policymakers.

Metabolic responses to nitrogen deficiency and rapamycin treatment in freshwater microalgae strains
Authors:   , Covell Lidiane
Published: July 2022

Nutrient deprivation causes significant stress to microalgae, which responds by altering their metabolic pathways. Following N deprivation, the accumulation of starch and triacylglycerols (TAGs) are significantly altered following reprogramming of cellular metabolism. In addition, the adaptation of cell growth and proliferation to environmental changes is essential for the surviving of biological systems. The evolutionary conserved Ser/Thr protein kinase (Target of Rapamycin - TOR) is crucial for the signaling pathway that integrates the sensing of growth signals to the regulation of metabolism and cellular growth. The TOR pathway controls cell growth by promoting anabolic processes, including protein synthesis and ribosome biogenesis, and inhibiting catabolic processes such as autophagy. Therefore, a greater understanding of the regulation of growth and metabolic pathways under N deprivation and TOR inhibition is necessary to understand the physiology and the mechanisms involved in the biosynthesis of storage compounds in Brazilian native microalgae. In this study, native microalgae, Scenedesmus obliquus BR003, Chlorella vulgaris BR017, Chlamydomonas sp. BR020 and Monoraphidium sp.BR023, and one consider model, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii CC503 were selected to evaluate the growth parameters, biochemical composition, and metabolite profile under different nitrogen concentrations and TOR pathway inhibition by rapamycin. Whereas N depletion leads to typical stress-related responses in all strains, including reduction of cell growth, chlorophyll and protein, differential accumulation of primary compounds, membrane lipid composition and fatty acid were also observed. The metabolic and physiological analysis showed not only differential sensitivity to the absence of N in relation to N-replete and N- saturated treatments but also differences between strains. The response of growth, dynamics, metabolism profile, and lipid profile to TOR-inhibition by rapamycin in the strains showed a decrease in both cell growth and strong changes in carbon and nitrogen partitioning in the direction of rapid conversion into carbon and nitrogen storage through an accumulation of starch, triacylglycerol and amino acids. Interestingly, the strains showed different metabolite levels, confirming the difference in reserve compound accumulation of each strain. Based on the results, this study indicates that, due to their metabolic profile, microalgae have different responses in cell growth and metabolism, thus, a better understanding of the metabolic pathways in different strains is needed for biotechnological use.
