Summary Gramineae pollination from a pollen monitoring station located in the eastern suburb of Perugia and meteorological correlations are reported. The data refers to the year 1989. Grass pollen peak pollination was from May to July; in this period the influence of relative humidity and of temperature on pollen concentration was very high. Phenological observations, to identify the time of maximum stamen extension in the most common genera in the area, are also reported. During the period of investigation the counts of pollen grains over four-hour periods showed a regular diurnal rhythm with peaks of concentration in the four-hour period 16.00–20.00. Aerosporological data and meteorological data related to four-hour periods were correlated following different criteria. 相似文献

As indicators of dietary status, standardised levels of strontium and zinc in specimens of bones from several prehistoric and historic sites in Europe are compared. The bone level of strontium reflects the vegetable intake in the diet, the level of zinc that of foods of animal origin. The large quantities of plants in the diet of palaeolitic hunters gave way in the mesolithic to an almost exclusively vegetarian diet, but then an increase in meat consumption in the neolithic. Agricultural economies characterised classical Greece and Rome, but the big towns were able to maintain a mixed diet. In the early centuries AD there was a decline in agricultural consumption. 相似文献

Continuous pollen monitoring of an urban network consisting of three stations has been undertaken for a period of 2 years
in Perugia, central Italy. The aim has been to establish whether the Perugia pollen trap, active since 1983, is still representative
of the area following recent urbanisation. Quantitative differences were found between the stations, reflecting different
vegetational areas, but only slight differences were detected in relation to the timing of the principal period of pollination.
Therefore, although individual pollen traps are necessary to characterize fully the different areas, one trap is sufficient
to determine the key allergenic thresholds in the studied area. 相似文献

Times of pollination of different taxa in the atmosphere of Perugia (Central Italy) over an 11-year period (1982–1992) were recorded and analysed by means of a 7-day volumetric Hirst-type pollen trap. For some taxa, the pollination period varied from year to year from a chronological and/or quantitative point of view. Several taxa showed a linkage in their starting dates of pollination. Knowledge of this kind of linkage allows us to build a forecasting model. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate the main climatic and biological trends related to olive flowering in central-southern
Italy compared to those in Andalusia, Spain. Results since 1982 were compared for the two long-series monitoring areas of
Cordoba and Perugia, and since 1992–1999 for the short-series areas. The relationship between climatic trends and the biological
response of the olive, a widespread culture in the Mediterranean basin, were investigated. An aerobiological method involving
capturing pollen released into the atmosphere was utilised as a bioindicator of flowering phenology. The study results confirm
the strong relationship between flowering periods and spring temperature trends for the olive. Temperature during March, April
and May was the parameter most related to flowering date in the study areas, particularly in Italy. In some cases we found
a significant correlation between flowering and past autumn temperatures, probably due to their effect on floral bud dormancy
induction, but this phenomenon appeared to be of minor importance in the studied areas. The phenological trend results show
the continuous advance of flowering dates to the late 1990s, followed by a relatively stationary time series related to a
short-term temperature fluctuation in the Mediterranean area. This latter period probably represents a mesoscale event forced
by a macroscale event—the North Atlantic Oscillation. The results reveal that the trend towards increased temperatures, and
the consequent flowering advance of some species, indicated some years ago is nowadays not as clear as was expected and should
be confirmed over the next few years in the Mediterranean areas under investigation. 相似文献

The olive tree Olea europaea L. is a resource of notable value from an economic and landscape point of view in Central Italy. This study examined two cultivars (Giarraffa and Ascolana) grown in an associative stand in an experimental olive orchard, to verify the possibility of introducing new olive cultivars into Umbria. The analyses were carried out at three different altitudes in the olive orchard following criteria used for non-homogeneous samplings in order to minimize the effect due to steepness. Since the number of trees of the two cultivars is different, the sample sizes were different for the two cultivars. Phenological observations of the above mentioned cultivars and the evaluation of the pollen flow, done by using a portable pollen trap inside the olive orchard, were carried out over two seasons (1998-1999). The start of initial phenological phases differed in the two cultivars, but the differences became less evident during phases of anthesis. In aeropalynological respect, it appears that, in a hill species such as the olive tree, the flowering is correlated with altitude. Comparing the aeropalynological data from the distant pollen trap and those collected in the olive orchard, it is clear that the periods of pollen release are very similar in the two cultivars, and there is a clear synchronism in the peak pollen release. It is concluded that in Central Italy the pollen grains of Giarraffa cultivar are well compatible with the Ascolana cultivar from a phenological and aeropalynological point of view. 相似文献

Single strands of very short PCR products can be covalently immobilized to a slide and then easily detected by probe hybridization. In this work, the PCR product was a 70-nucleotide segment of ancient DNA, representing a portion of repeat mini-circle DNA from the kinetoplast of Trypanosoma cruzi, the infectious agent of Chagas' disease (American Trypanosomiasis). The target segment was initially established to be present in soft tissue samples taken from four "naturally" mummified Andean bodies using PCR followed by cloning and sequencing. Hybridization screening of the covalently immobilized PCR products positively identified products from 25 of 27 specimens of different tissues from these four mummies. The method appears to be ideal for the purpose of screening a large number of specimens when the target PCR product is very short. 相似文献

The process of natural mummification is a rare and unique process from which little is known about the resulting microbial community structure. In the present study, we characterized the microbiome of paleofeces, and ascending, transverse and descending colon of an 11th century A.D. pre-Columbian Andean mummy by 16S rRNA gene high-throughput sequencing and metagenomics. Firmicutes were the most abundant bacterial group, with Clostridium spp. comprising up to 96.2% of the mummified gut, while Turicibacter spp. represented 89.2% of the bacteria identified in the paleofeces. Microbiome profile of the paleofeces was unique when compared to previously characterized coprolites that did not undergo natural mummification. We identified DNA sequences homologous to Clostridium botulinum, Trypanosoma cruzi and human papillomaviruses (HPVs). Unexpectedly, putative antibiotic-resistance genes including beta-lactamases, penicillin-binding proteins, resistance to fosfomycin, chloramphenicol, aminoglycosides, macrolides, sulfa, quinolones, tetracycline and vancomycin, and multi-drug transporters, were also identified. The presence of putative antibiotic-resistance genes suggests that resistance may not necessarily be associated with a selective pressure of antibiotics or contact with European cultures. Identification of pathogens and antibiotic-resistance genes in ancient human specimens will aid in the understanding of the evolution of pathogens as a way to treat and prevent diseases caused by bacteria, microbial eukaryotes and viruses. 相似文献
