The nucleotide sequences of cloned cDNA copies of satellite and defective interfering (DI) RNAs of cymbidium ringspot virus were determined. DI RNA is 499 nucleotides long and is composed of six stretches of sequence derived from CyRSV genomic RNA. Four of these stretches share common 5' sequences and the 5' and 3' ends are identical to those of genome RNA. Satellite RNA is 621 nucleotides long...

In the present study, we critically revised the recently proposed classification of the subfamily Leishmaniinae Maslov et Lukeš in Jirků et al., 2012. Agreeing with erection of the genus Zelonia Shaw, Camargo et Teixeira in Espinosa et al., 2017 and the subgenus Mundinia Shaw, Camargo et Teixeira in Espinosa et al., 2017 within the genus Leishmania Ross, 1908, we argue that other changes are no...

The article investigates the issues that were central to the debate about Brazilian education in intellectual circles in the 1920s-1930s and 1950s-1960s. It analyzes the project for Universidade do Distrito Federal, highlighting what set it apart from other higher education models, and the articulation between education and social science that oriented the work of Centro Brasileiro de Pesquisas...

Molecular theories for polymer rheology are based on conformational dynamics of the polymeric chain. Hence, measurements directly related to molecular conformations appear more appealing than indirect ones obtained from rheology. In this study, primitive chain network simulations are compared to experimental data of entangled DNA solutions [Teixeira et al., Macromolecules 40, 2461 (2007)]. In a...

Na entrevista que segue, realizada por Cristina Teixeira Vieira de Melo e Paulo Vaz, a pesquisadora Jacqueline Moraes fala da influência religião, especialmente evangélica, nas guerras culturais no Brasil. Ela chama atenção para o papel disputa em torno dos Direitos Humanos nessa guerra. aborda ainda relação entre classe social religião eleições, bem como ideia ressentimento tem movido parte po...

Firstly, I give a brief summary of the current understanding of QCD below and near Tc (the critical temperature of the chiral transition). Some emphases are put on the qualitative difference between the Yukawa regime (T ∼ 0) and the Hagedorn regime (T ∼ Tc). Secondly, the dynamical phenomena associated with the chiral transition, in particular, the spectral changes of hadrons in hot and/or dens...
