title: Signatures of local adaptation to climate in natural populations of sweet chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill.) from southern Europe

description: Context: Temperate forest species, such as chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill.), are currently threatened by increasing temperature together with disruption and reduction of precipitation due to climate change. In this context, understanding the adaptation processes of species will help to manage and ensure the conservation of forests. Aims: We studied the relationship between genetic variability and climate variables in natural populations of C. sativa using a landscape genomics approach aimed to identify local adaption processes. Methods: Using five genomic SSRs and eight functional EST-SSRs markers, 268 individuals belonging to ten different natural European chestnut populations distributed in contrasting climatic sites were genotyped. In addition, associations between allelic variation and climatic variables (environmental association analyses approach) were performed using Samada and LFMM. Results: Results highlighted a strong inter-relationship between climate variables and evolutionary processes resulting in adaptive variation. STRUCTURE analysis based on functional markers split the populations in three separate gene pools (K=3), mostly in agreement with the different climatic conditions existing in the studied areas. Divergent spatial patterns of genetic variation between rainy and arid areas were found. We detected a total of 202 associations with climate among 22 different alleles, 9% of which related with the outlier locus FIR059, known to be implicated in regulatory mechanisms during water stress adaptation processes. Conclusions: Landscape genomics analyses revealed a pattern of adaptive variation, where specific climatic variables influenced the frequencies distribution and fixation of several alleles, resulting in local adaptation processes of the populations in the investigated areas. Our findings underline the close inter-relationship existing between climate and genetic variability, and indicate how this approach could provide valuable information for the management of forest species in a rapidly changing environment.

title: Human Resource Management Practice and Quality of Work Life

description: 301 IT professionals answer this survey. They are from different places in Brazil (north to south). We have two instruments, Quality of Work Life and Human Resource Practices. Also, we have qualitative data attached to subjects. As we collect data in Brazil, we use a Brazilian Quality of Work Life instrument developed by Mário César Ferreira and developed by Rodrigo Ferreira. The Human Resource Practice instrument used was based in Villajos and we added some items. (references below). Ferreira, R. R. (2013). Qualidade de vida no trabalho.

title: Morphologic variation of two key biostratigraphical proteaceous-like pollen taxa across the Cretaceous–Paleogene boundary in northern South America

description: <i>Echitriporites trianguliformis</i> and <i>E</i>. <i>suescae</i> comb. nov. are two species of proteaceous-like triaperturate pollen that have been widely reported in several sedimentary sequences from northern South America, especially in Colombia and Venezuela. Despite their biostratigraphic significance and because of their morphological similarity, distinction between the two species has been difficult, leading to a biased understanding of their chronostratigraphic ranges. In this study, we compare 75 pollen grains spanning the Maastrichtian–Danian time interval through traditional and geometric morphometrics, and a newly proposed Procrustes-based method (index of pollen curvature). Traditional assessments show subtle variation between specimens; however, geometric morphometrics and the curvature index allow quantifying morphological differences in the degree of concavity-convexity through time. Therefore, geometric morphometrics and curvature index results enable us to constrain the stratigraphic ranges of both taxa. We suggest a coetaneous range for <i>E. trianguliformis</i> and <i>E. suescae</i> comb. nov. during the Late Cretaceous, but the presence of only <i>E. trianguliformis</i> after the Cretaceous–Paleogene boundary event. In addition, we propose a threshold value of 1.5 µm for the curvature index as a tool for distinguishing between these two taxa. We conclude that the combination of geometric morphometrics and the curvature index provides a powerful tool to distinguish between morphological closely-related pollen taxa that are difficult to distinguish through both light microscope visual comparisons and statistical analysis of morphometric measurements.

title: Origin and divergence of Afro-Indian Picrodendraceae: linking pollen morphology, dispersal modes, fossil records, molecular dating and paleogeography

description: The pantropical Picrodendraceae produce mostly spheroidal to slightly oblate, echinate pollen grains equipped with narrow circular to elliptic pori that can be hard to identify to family level in both extant and fossil material using light microscopy only. Fossil pollen of the family have been described from the Paleogene of America, Antarctica, Australia, New Zealand, and Europe, but until now none have been reported from Afro-India. Extant pollen described here include representatives from all recent Picrodendraceae genera naturally occurring in Africa and/or Madagascar and south India and selected closely related tropical American taxa. Our analyses, using combined light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy, show that pollen of the Afro-Indian genera encompass three morphological types: Type 1, comprising only <i>Hyaenanche</i>; Type 2, including <i>Aristogeitonia</i>, <i>Mischodon, Oldfieldia</i> and <i>Voatamalo</i>; Type 3, comprising the remaining two genera, <i>Androstachys</i> and <i>Stachyandra</i>. Based on the pollen morphology presented here it is evident that some previous light microscopic accounts of spherical and echinate fossil pollen affiliated with Arecaceae, Asteraceae, Malvaceae, and Myristicaceae from the African continent could belong to Picrodendraceae. The pollen morphology of Picrodendraceae, fossil pollen records, a dated intra-familial phylogeny, seed dispersal modes, and the regional Late Cretaceous to early Cenozoic paleogeography, together suggest the family originated in the Americas and dispersed from southern America across Antarctica and into Australasia. A second dispersal route is believed to have occurred from the Americas into continental Africa via the North Atlantic Land Bridge and Europe.

title: The “intraorogenic” Svecofennian Herräng mafic dyke swarm in east-central Sweden: age, geochemistry and tectonic significance

description: The Herräng mafic dykes form an E-W-trending dyke swarm within the Bergslagen lithotectonic unit of the Svecofennian orogen in east-central Sweden. They intrude the Svecofennian supracrustal rocks and early-orogenic granitoids, but are themselves cut by late Svecofennian pegmatites, and have undergone Svecofennian amphibolite-facies metamorphism, leading to their classification as “intraorogenic” Svecofennian dykes. They can be assigned an age between 1870 and 1850 Ma, with metamorphism of the dykes dated at 1848 ± 13 Ma by U-Pb in titanite. Their current mineralogy is dominated by metamorphic plagioclase and amphibole, with variable amounts of quartz and biotite, and minor to accessory titanite, apatite, epidote, pyrite, magnetite, ilmenite and zircon. Textures range from massive to strongly foliated. Twenty samples of dyke rocks from three subareas in the Roslagen region, including the Herräng type area, range in composition from basaltic to andesitic with 47 to 60 wt% SiO<sub>2</sub>, broadly similar to the Dannemora dykes and the Avesta-Östhammar gabbros and diorites. Initial <sup>87</sup>Sr/<sup>86</sup>Sr ratios (at 1870 Ma) varies between 0.7026 and 0.7038, corresponding to initial ε<sub>Sr</sub> between +5 and +21, and initial ε<sub>Nd</sub> between −0.4 and +1.3, suggesting a slightly enriched to mildly depleted mantle source, similar to other Svecofennian mafic rocks. The dykes dominantly show a calc-alkaline volcanic arc signature related to subduction. They formed during an extensional episode, possibly related to incipient back-arc spreading or subduction roll-back following the main early-orogenic subduction-related Svecofennian magmatism, but penecontemporaneous with amphibolite-facies metamorphism in the area.

title: Combined LM and SEM study of the middle Miocene (Sarmatian) palynoflora from the Lavanttal Basin, Austria: Part V. Magnoliophyta 3 – Myrtales to Ericales

description: The continued investigation of the middle Miocene palynoflora from the Lavanttal Basin reveals numerous additional angiosperm taxa. The Myrtales to Ericales pollen record documented here comprises 46 different taxa belonging to Onagraceae (<i>Ludwigia</i>), Ericaceae (<i>Craigia, Reevesia, Tilia</i>), Anacardiaceae (<i>Pistacia</i>), Rutaceae (<i>Zanthoxylum</i>), Sapindaceae (<i>Acer</i>), Santalaceae (<i>Arceuthobium</i>), Amaranthaceae, Caryophyllaceae, Polygonaceae (<i>Persicaria, Rumex</i>), Cornaceae (<i>Alangium, Cornus, Nyssa</i>), Ebenaceae (<i>Diospyros</i>), Ericaceae (<i>Andromeda, Arbutus, Empetrum, Erica</i>), Sapotaceae (<i>Pouteria, Sideroxylon</i>), Styracaceae (<i>Rehderodendron</i>) and Symplocaceae (<i>Symplocos</i>). Köppen signatures of potential modern analogues of the additional fossil woody elements confirm the hypothesis of a subtropical (<i>Cfa, Cwa</i>) climate at lower elevations and subsequent transition into a temperate climate with altitudinal succession (<i>Cfa</i> → <i>Cfb</i>/<i>Dfa</i> → <i>Dfb; Cwa</i> → <i>Cwb</i> → <i>Dwb</i>-climate). The fossil plants represent different vegetation units, from wetland lowlands to well-drained montane forests. Many of the fossil taxa have potential modern analogues that can be classified as nemoral and/or meridio-nemoral and/or semihumid-meridional vegetation elements. New is the recognition of oreotropical elements, which are direct indicators for a substantial altitudinal gradient.
