A expectativa de sobrevida da população idosa tem aumentado nos últimos anos, podendo o processo envelhecimento ser acompanhado por declínio das capacidades funcionais, físicas e cognitivas dos idosos. Dentro função cognitiva, a memória apresenta-se como uma suas principais queixas. Os objetivos do estudo foram analisar declarativa, capacidade funcional qualidade vida idosos ativos insuficientemente ativos, fim observar se atividade física interfere positivamente nestas variáveis. Trata-se...
A study of the community dynamics Drosophilidae was carried out in six insular communities and two others on mainland. Seasonal collections were throughout years Santa Catarina State, southern Brazil. The diversity index calculations show high values when compared with temperate climate communities. sites mainland (Serra do Tabuleiro) presented highest diversity, which measured by Diversity Index (H'). These are covered primary Atlantic Forest theoretically should have a higher variation...
Understanding patterns of ecological specialization, the processes underlying niche partitioning and how they translate into structure interaction networks is a persistent challenge in ecology. Advances on this regard are limited by prevalent focus single spatial scales, lack tests mechanisms scarce investigation some types interactions. Here we investigated between plants florivores (flower‐breeding drosophilids, FBD) at species‐ community‐level local regional tested relative importance...
Schistosomiasis, a parasitic disease, is an important public health issue in Brazil, particularly Northern Brazil. Since the first recorded occurrence of Biomphalaria glabrata States Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul, it has spread to South Brazil.Using Information System for Notifiable Diseases (SINAN), we assessed disease Southern Brazil.In nine localities had confirmed cases (n = 95, 2001-2013).We expansion We demonstrated effectiveness SINAN monitor notifiable diseases. Our results...
Abstract Understanding the mechanisms that shape architecture, diversity, and adaptations of genomes their ecological genetic interfaces is utmost importance to understand biological evolution. Transposable elements (TEs) play an important role in genome evolution, due ability transpose within between genomes, providing sites nonallelic recombination. Here we investigate patterns processes TE-driven evolution associated with niche diversification. Specifically, compared TE content,...
Physical and genetic maps have been used for chromosomal localization of genes in vectors infectious diseases. The availability polytene chromosomes malaria mosquitoes provides a unique opportunity to precisely map interest. We report the physical mapping two actin on major vector Amazon, Anopheles darlingi (Diptera: Culicidae). Clones with gene sequences were obtained from cDNA library constructed RNA isolated adult females males An. . Each clones was mapped site arm 2L subdivisions 21A...
Abstract Cryptic species represent a substantial fraction of the diversity Drosophilidae, hampering studies on ecologies and their evolution. Anthophilous within Drosophila lutzii group encompass some most widely distributed Neotropical lineages. Nevertheless, ranges, ecologies, divergence times, phylogenetic relationships are largely unknown. In this study, we analyzed cryptic complex occurring in Southern Brazil shed light ecological evolutionary processes underlying current patterns...
Paralucilia Brauer & Bergenstamm, 1891 (Diptera, Oestroidea, Calliphoridae) is a small genus of blowflies restricted to the Neotropical region, which commonly reported on decaying corpses and vertebrate carcasses. The number species currently assigned this their denominations are contentious, with either three or five recognized by different authors. This taxonomic instability results in lack consensus determination, making it impossible compare from studies as well elaborate confident keys....
Transposable elements (TEs) have the main role in shaping evolution of genomes and host species, contributing to creation new genes promoting rearrangements frequently associated with regulatory networks. Support for these hypotheses results from studies model Drosophila provides a great organism study TEs. Micropia belongs Ty3/Gypsy group long terminal repeats (LTR) retroelements comprises one least studied transposable elements. In this study, we assessed evolutionary history within...
Encounters between flowers and invertebrates are key events for the functioning of tropical forests. Assessing structure networks composed interactions those partners leads to a better understanding ecosystem effects environmental factors on ecological processes. Gathering such data is, however, costly time-consuming, especially in highly diverse tropics. We aimed provide comprehensive repository available flower-invertebrate interaction information Atlantic Forest, South American forest...
