AN OPERATING MODEL FOR THE ENVIRONMENTAL RISK ASSESSMENT APPLIED TO ITALIAN SITES OF COMMUNITY IMPORTANCE: IDENTIFICATION OF POTENTIAL EFFECTS ON SOIL

The fast development of agro-biotechnologies asks for a harmonized approach in risk analysis of GMOs releases.An Italian experts group has elaborated an operating model for the environmental risk assessment (OMERA) based on the assumption that the occurring of a risk is related to the presence of four components: source, diffusion Wireless Routers

Hybrid incompatibilities play a critical role in the evolution and maintenance of species.We have discovered a simple genetic incompatibility that causes lethality in hybrids between two closely related species of yellow monkeyflower (Mimulus guttatus and M.nasutus).This hybrid incompatibility, which causes one sixteenth of F2 hybrid seedlings to l
