Filial imprinting and social predispositions in chicks (Gallus gallus domesticus)
Creators: name: Lemaire, Bastien
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Trento
Year: 2021

description: The domestic chick became a model for understanding memory, learning and the onset of social behaviours. Just after hatching and for a limited period, the na�ve bird seeks a suitable object to imprint. Thanks to laboratory studies, the filial imprinting has been well documented in the very first few hours. However, how the filial imprinting preferences develop and evolve over time remained relatively unexplored. Therefore, we built an automated setup allowing us to follow the animal behaviour across prolonged durations and investigate the stability and variability of filial imprinting preferences. We demonstrated that three days of exposure to artificial objects produce lasting and robust imprinting preferences. With lower imprinting duration, we found that the animal predispositions strongly influence the filial imprinting preferences. Those social predispositions guide the domestic chicks towards living creatures ? or at least, towards stimuli conveying animacy. To complete this general pattern, we performed two experiments manipulating motion dynamics. We showed that chicks prefer quickly rotating objects and agents moving with unpredictable temporal sequences: two cues probably used to detect living animals' presence. Both imprinting and social predispositions influence each other, but whether they share a neurophysiological ground was yet to be described. Such as for filial imprinting, we showed that the thyroid hormone T3 strongly affects the sensitive period for animacy preference. T3-inhibition closes the sensitive period for animacy preference and T3-injections re-opens it. Altogether, the present thesis complete previous research on filial imprinting and social predispositions: two distinct but interconnected mechanisms that can help to better understand the mind foundations at the onset of life.

I saggi contenuti in questo volume si pongono nei confronti del linguaggio comico partendo dal presupposto che la realt� del comico � talmente sfaccettata e complessa che � impossibile cercare di ridurla a una qualche unit�. Il nucleo centrale delle sei lezioni ruota intorno alle domande: �� possibile stabilire una ?grammatica? del linguaggio comico?� e �Pur nella estrema variet� dei prodotti del comico, � possibile ritrovarvi elementi ricorrenti, tendenzialmente universali?�.

description: Robustness is a very topical research issue, and several research work have been carried out in recent years. The University of Trento was involved in the project ?Robust impact design of steel and composite building structures? (acronym ROBUSTIMPACT). The project was financially supported in the framework of the European RFCS program (Research Fund for Coal and Steel). This document concerns the experimental activities carried out at the Laboratory of Material and Structural Testing (LMST) of the University of Trento. The project focuses on the behaviour of composite steel and concrete framed buildings subject to accidental actions. Within the project, several experimental analyses were performed by the partners ranging from the local to the global response. As to the global behaviour, at LMST two 3D full-scale tests on steel-concrete composite sub-frames simulating the total loss of an impacted column were performed. The purpose of the study is to improve the state of knowledge on the contribution offered by the joints and by the 3D slab system in terms of activation of an alternative mechanisms of resistance. The research assumes two reference case studies of steel and concrete five-story buildings differing for in-plane column layout. Two sub-frames were ?extracted? from these structures and tested in the laboratory. The plan of the experimental tests required preliminary studies devoted to: ? selection and definition of a reference buildings assumed as case studies, ? design of the reference buildings according to the Eurocodes; ? identification of representative substructures (slab-beam system, columns and joints) from the reference structures to be experimentally investigated; ? design of the testing set-up This report concern the design of the case studies, of the specimens and of the testing set-up. In particular, Section 2 illustrates the design, based on the relevant Eurocodes, of the reference structures for both the geometric configurations. Section 3 reports the design of the sub-structures including also the numerical analysis and the design of the testing setup. Finally, Section 4 provides the details of the components of the two specimens as needed for their fabrication, and of the testing set-up. All the related drawings are reported in Annexes A-C.

description: Food prices, as measured by the Consumer Price Index, increased 4.1 percent in 1987, compared with a 3.2-percent rise in 1986. The larger rise reflected a 4.3-percent increase in prices of food bought in grocery stores for consumption at home compared with a 2.9-percent rise in 1986. The prices farmers received for commodities, as measured by the farm value of USDA's market basket of foods, rose 2.3 percent. Farm value of foods had dropped 8 percent the previous 2 years. The farm-to-retail price spread of USDA's market basket of foods rose by 6.2 percent, partly reflecting higher food industry labor costs from rising employment. Higher advertising, packaging, and other food marketing expenses also contributed to the rise in the farm-to-retail price spread.

description: We develop rigorous notions of causality and causal separability in the process framework introduced in [Oreshkov, Costa, Brukner, Nat. Commun. 3, 1092 (2012)], which describes correlations between separate local experiments without a prior assumption of causal order between them. We consider the general multipartite case and take into account the possibility for dynamical causal order, where the order of a set of events can depend on other events in the past. Starting from a general definition of causality, we derive an iteratively formulated canonical decomposition of multipartite causal processes, and show that for a fixed number of settings and outcomes for each party, the respective correlations form a polytope whose facets define causal inequalities. In the case of quantum processes, we investigate the link between causality and the theory-dependent notion of causal separability, which we here extend to the multipartite case based on concrete principles. We show that causality and causal separability are not equivalent in general by giving an example of a physically admissible tripartite quantum process that is causal but not causally separable. We also show that there exist causally separable (and hence causal) quantum processes that become non-causal if extended by supplying the parties with entangled ancillas. This example of activation of non-causality motivates the concepts of extensibly causal and extensibly causally separable (ECS) processes, for which the respective property remains invariant under extension with arbitrary ancillas. We characterize the class of tripartite ECS processes in terms of simple conditions on the form of the process matrix, which generalize the form of bipartite causally separable process matrices. We show that the processes realizable by classically controlled quantum circuits are ECS and conjecture that the reverse also holds.

description: Structures of Drosophila Msps TOG4 and human ch-TOG TOG4 are presented. TOG4 departs from the other TOG structures and predicts novel α-tubulin engagement. Whereas TOG domains across the array have different tubulin-binding properties, cellular studies show that a fully functional TOG array is required for microtubule polymerase activity.XMAP215 family members are potent microtubule (MT) polymerases, with mutants displaying reduced MT growth rates and aberrant spindle morphologies. XMAP215 proteins contain arrayed tumor overexpressed gene (TOG) domains that bind tubulin. Whether these TOG domains are architecturally equivalent is unknown. Here we present crystal structures of TOG4 from Drosophila Msps and human ch-TOG. These TOG4 structures architecturally depart from the structures of TOG domains 1 and 2, revealing a conserved domain bend that predicts a novel engagement with α-tubulin. In vitro assays show differential tubulin-binding affinities across the TOG array, as well as differential effects on MT polymerization. We used Drosophila S2 cells depleted of endogenous Msps to assess the importance of individual TOG domains. Whereas a TOG1-4 array largely rescues MT polymerization rates, mutating tubulin-binding determinants in any single TOG domain dramatically reduces rescue activity. Our work highlights the structurally diverse yet positionally conserved TOG array that drives MT polymerization.

description: Radiative transfer plays a key role in the star formation process. Due to a high computational cost, radiation-hydrodynamics simulations performed up to now have mainly been carried out in the grey approximation. In recent years, multi-frequency radiation-hydrodynamics models have started to emerge, in an attempt to better account for the large variations of opacities as a function of frequency. We wish to develop an efficient multigroup algorithm for the adaptive mesh refinement code RAMSES which is suited to heavy proto-stellar collapse calculations. Due to prohibitive timestep constraints of an explicit radiative transfer method, we constructed a time-implicit solver based on a stabilised bi-conjugate gradient algorithm, and implemented it in RAMSES under the flux-limited diffusion approximation. We present a series of tests which demonstrate the high performance of our scheme in dealing with frequency-dependent radiation-hydrodynamic flows. We also present a preliminary simulation of a three-dimensional proto-stellar collapse using 20 frequency groups. Differences between grey and multigroup results are briefly discussed, and the large amount of information this new method brings us is also illustrated. We have implemented a multigroup flux-limited diffusion algorithm in the RAMSES code. The method performed well against standard radiation-hydrodynamics tests, and was also shown to be ripe for exploitation in the computational star formation context.

description: We consider nontrivial critical models in $d=6+ε$ spacetime dimensions with anticommuting scalars transforming under the symplectic group $\text{Sp}(N)$. These models are nonunitary, but the couplings are real and all operator dimensions are positive. At large $N$ we can take $ε\to1$ consistently with the loop expansion and thus provide evidence that these theories may be used to define critical models in $d=7$. The relation of these theories to critical $\text{Sp}(N)$ theories, defined similarly to the well-known critical $\text{O}(N)$ theories, is examined, and some similarities are pointed out.

Le linee guida nel "sistema delle fonti"

description: This thesis aims to reflect on the expansion of guidelines in legal systems today. More specifically, the investigation aims at assessing the impact that these instruments may have on the production of regulations, questioning, where possible, the risks and benefits connected to their adoption. With this in mind, the study conducted in these pages begins by attempting to trace the first uses of the term "guidelines" within the domestic legal system and offers some interpretations of the reasons that may have favoured their use and subsequent diffusion. Later on, the observation of the most recurrent features of the instruments under examination opens some reflections on the dogmatic practicability of a regulatory model for guidelines, identifying the possible peculiarities and salient aspects both with reference to its expressions in domestic law, and with regard to the forms it has taken in other legal systems (national and supranational). Going beyond the more theoretical approach of the first part, the continuation of the work reports, instead, a review of the main examples of guidelines used within the domestic system, paying particular attention to those developed in the subsystem of independent authorities, those drawn up for clinical practice and those that, in various ways, have, finally, integrated the recent discipline of contrast to Sars-CoV-2. In this part of the work, the model hypothetically underlying the use of guidelines is put in relation with other and more classic constructions, giving rise to a comparison between the expressions of this new figure and the main characteristics of other and older legal institutions. The last part of the text, proposing some summary considerations, aims to illustrate the possible results of the investigation, highlighting the consequences that the use of this model may have on the functioning of the system of sources and on the constitutional order.

Anniversary of the discovery/isolation of the yeast centromere by Clarke and Carbon
Creators: name: Bloom, Kerry
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2015

description: The first centromere was isolated 35 years ago by Louise Clarke and John Carbon from budding yeast. They embarked on their journey with rudimentary molecular tools (by today's standards) and little knowledge of the structure of a chromosome, much less the nature of a centromere. Their discovery opened up a new field, as centromeres have now been isolated from fungi and numerous plants and animals, including mammals. Budding yeast and several other fungi have small centromeres with short, well-defined sequences, known as point centromeres, whereas regional centromeres span several kilobases up to megabases and do not seem to have DNA sequence specificity. Centromeres are at the heart of artificial chromosomes, and we have seen the birth of synthetic centromeres in budding and fission yeast and mammals. The diversity in centromeres throughout phylogeny belie conserved functions that are only beginning to be understood.

description: Why do some politicians get away with using insensitive language on hot-button issues like race, gender, sex, and religion, whereas others do not? Scholars have mostly explained differential outcomes based on independent factors related either to the content of speech itself or the situation surrounding it. In this registered report, we formulate a generalized template that integrates key elements of both. Regarding content, we predict that voters react most negatively to slurs aimed at their own identity group, and to politicians who fail to take responsibility for their comments. Regarding the situation, we predict that voters respond most adversely where there are no mitigating circumstances, and to politicians whose background traits differ from their own. Before testing our theory with a full representative sample, we will test with a convenience sample 1) the design of the survey via the comparison in the use of vignettes and a table-based conjoints. 2) our key substantial predictions and 3) alternative dependent variables, beyond self-described voting behavior .

description: Eukaryotic cilia are cell-surface projections critical for sensing the extracellular environment. Defects in cilia structure and function result in a broad range of developmental and sensory disorders. However, mechanisms that regulate the microtubule (MT)-based scaffold forming the cilia core are poorly understood. TOG domain array–containing proteins ch-TOG and CLASP are key regulators of cytoplasmic MTs. Whether TOG array proteins also regulate ciliary MTs is unknown. Here we identify the conserved Crescerin protein family as a cilia-specific, TOG array-containing MT regulator. We present the crystal structure of mammalian Crescerin1 TOG2, revealing a canonical TOG fold with conserved tubulin-binding determinants. Crescerin1's TOG domains possess inherent MT-binding activity and promote MT polymerization in vitro. Using Cas9-triggered homologous recombination in Caenorhabditis elegans, we demonstrate that the worm Crescerin family member CHE-12 requires TOG domain–dependent tubulin-binding activity for sensory cilia development. Thus, Crescerin expands the TOG domain array–based MT regulatory paradigm beyond ch-TOG and CLASP, representing a distinct regulator of cilia structure.

description: Food prices, as measured by the Consumer Price Index, increased 4.1 percent in 1988, the same increase as in 1987. But prices rose at a much higher rate in the second half of 1988 than in the first half due to the severe drought and other market factors. The prices farmers received for commodities, as measured by the farm value of USDA's market basket of foods, rose 3.6 percent. Farm value of foods had dropped in 2 of the previous 3 years. The farm value share of the food dollar spent in grocery stores was 30 percent, unchanged from 1987. The farm-to-retail price spread of USDA's market basket of foods rose 4.7 percent, partly reflecting higher prices of inputs used in handling, processing, and retailing foods.

description: Nuclear bodies (NBs) are structures that concentrate proteins, RNAs, and ribonucleoproteins that perform functions essential to gene expression. How NBs assemble is not well understood. We studied the Drosophila histone locus body (HLB), a NB that concentrates factors required for histone mRNA biosynthesis at the replication-dependent histone gene locus. We coupled biochemical analysis with confocal imaging of both fixed and live tissues to demonstrate that the Drosophila Multi Sex Combs (Mxc) protein contains multiple domains necessary for HLB assembly. An important feature of this assembly process is the self-interaction of Mxc via two conserved N-terminal domains: a LisH domain and a novel self-interaction facilitator (SIF) domain immediately downstream of the LisH domain. Molecular modeling suggests that the LisH and SIF domains directly interact, and mutation of either the LisH or the SIF domain severely impairs Mxc function in vivo, resulting in reduced histone mRNA accumulation. A region of Mxc between amino acids 721 and 1481 is also necessary for HLB assembly independent of the LisH and SIF domains. Finally, the C-terminal 195 amino acids of Mxc are required for recruiting FLASH, an essential histone mRNA-processing factor, to the HLB. We conclude that multiple domains of the Mxc protein promote HLB assembly in order to concentrate factors required for histone mRNA biosynthesis.

description: Atmospheric refraction affects to various degrees exoplanet transit, lunar eclipse, as well as stellar occultation observations. Exoplanet retrieval algorithms often use analytical expressions for the column abundance along a ray traversing the atmosphere as well as for the deflection of that ray, which are first order approximations valid for low densities in a spherically symmetric homogeneous isothermal atmosphere. We derive new analytical formulae for both of these quantities, which are valid for higher densities, and use them to refine and validate a new ray tracing algorithm which can be used for arbitrary atmospheric temperature-pressure profiles. We illustrate with simple isothermal atmospheric profiles the consequences of our model for different planets: temperate Earth-like and Jovian-like planets, as well as HD189733b, and GJ1214b. We find that, for both hot exoplanets, our treatment of refraction does not make much of a difference to pressures as high as 10 atmosphere, but that it is important to consider the variation of gravity with altitude for GJ1214b. However, we find that the temperate atmospheres have an apparent scale height significantly smaller than their actual density scale height at densities larger than 1 amagat, thus increasing the difficulty of detecting spectral features originating in these regions. These denser atmospheric regions form a refractive boundary layer where column abundances and ray deflection increases dramatically with decreasing impact parameter. This refractive boundary layer mimics a surface, and none of the techniques mentioned above can probe atmospheric regions denser than about 4 amagat on these temperate planets.

description: G protein–coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling is fundamental to physiological processes such as vision, the immune response, and wound healing. In the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, GPCRs detect and respond to gradients of pheromone during mating. After pheromone stimulation, the GPCR Ste2 is removed from the cell membrane, and new receptors are delivered to the growing edge. The regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) protein Sst2 acts by accelerating GTP hydrolysis and facilitating pathway desensitization. Sst2 is also known to interact with the receptor Ste2. Here we show that Sst2 is required for proper receptor recovery at the growing edge of pheromone-stimulated cells. Mathematical modeling suggested pheromone-induced synthesis of Sst2 together with its interaction with the receptor function to reestablish a receptor pool at the site of polarized growth. To validate the model, we used targeted genetic perturbations to selectively disrupt key properties of Sst2 and its induction by pheromone. Together our results reveal that a regulator of G protein signaling can also regulate the G protein–coupled receptor. Whereas Sst2 negatively regulates G protein signaling, it acts in a positive manner to promote receptor retention at the growing edge.
The Wahyoob stucco panel at Toniná : dark forces, liminal frames, and ritual-political remembrance

description: During the Late Classic period, the ancient site of Toniná—located in the Ocosingo Valley of Chiapas, México—was a thriving Maya polity engaged in local and foreign political affairs, which extended throughout the Usumacinta region. Alliance building and warfare in this period centered on the contentious relationship between Toniná and its historical rival, Palenque. The events that unfolded between these powerful communities, their rulers, and ancillary vassals were recorded in the art and architecture of Tonina’s ball courts, plazas, and acropolis. The seven-tiered structure, which is one of the tallest acropolises of the Classic period, boasts a vast corpus of stone and stucco monuments scattered throughout staircases, palatial residences, and temple structures. The stone monuments reflect themes of divine rulership, period-ending events, and subjugated enemies. The stuccoes of the acropolis, however, incorporate stylized mythical and/or ritual-political iconography that imbues the acropolis with darkness, liminality, and metaphysical energy. The culmination of such representations occurs on the fifth terrace where supernatural themes coincide with sacred tombs and ritual deposits. The stucco panel on the east side of the patio, moreover, embodies the sacred concepts of the acropolis while reflecting the Late Classic geopolitical networks burgeoning at the site. The panel, therefore, promotes the cosmic authority of the ruler/s who commissioned the work while providing a supernatural monument through which sacred acts could reinforce these ritual-political messages. Most studies that have been conducted on the stucco monument, to be sure, are either brief or grounded in the Popol Vuh narrative of the sixteenth century. This thesis aims to develop a complete analysis of the material, formal, and iconographic/textual characteristics of the panel that accounts for its links to cosmic origin stories yet explores the specific local understandings of the imagery. Further, the text investigates how ancient supplicants may have viewed and engaged with the panel and its surrounding structures. By analyzing the potential methods by which elite members of ancient Toniná experienced these works, I hope to reveal how and why the panel was a vital contribution to the artistic corpus of the acropolis and site writ large

description: Food prices, as measured by the Consumer Price Index, increased 5.8 percent in 1989, the largest increase since 1981. Higher farm prices and costs of processing and distribution both contributed to the price increase. The prices farmers received for commodities, as measured by the farm value of USDA's market basket of foods, rose 6.7 percent. This was only the second time in the decade that the rise in farm value equaled or exceeded the rise in food prices. The farm value share of the food dollar spent in grocery stores in 1989 was 30 percent, unchanged from 1988. The farm-to-retail price spread of USDA's market basket of foods rose 7.1 percent, reflecting higher prices of inputs, such as labor and packaging, used by the food industry.
