Printed on acid-free paper Springer International Publishing AG Switzerland is part of Springer Science+Business Media (www.springer.com) [email protected] Preface For the 18th time, the Evolutionary Biology Meeting in Marseille took place from 16 to 19 September 2014. The goal of this annual meeting is to allow scientists of different disciplines, who share a deep interest in evolutionary biology concepts, knowledge and applications, to meet and exchange and enhance interdisciplinary collaboration. The Evolutionary Biology Meeting in Marseille is now recognised internation- ally as an important exchange platform and a booster for the use of evolutionary-based approaches in biology and also in other scientific areas. This year, more than 100 presentations were selected by the evolutionary biol- ogy meeting scientific committee. We have further selected 20 of the most repre- sentative ones for the book. The book will give the reader an overview of the state-of-the-art research in the evolutionary biology field. The book is the eighth one that we have published further to the meeting. We would like to underline that the seven books are com- plementary one to another and should be considered as volumes. The readers of the evolutionary biology books as well as the meeting participants will maybe like us witness years after years during the different meetings and book editions a shift in the evolutionary biology concepts and knowledge. The fact that the chapters of the book are selected from one meeting enables the quick diffusion of the novelties. Concerning the book, the chapters are organised in the following categories Genotype to Phenotype (Chaps. 1–3) Genetic Mechanisms of Diversification (Chaps. 4–8) Evolutionary Mechanisms (Chaps. 9–14) Speciation and Biodiversity (Chaps. 15–20) We would like to thank all the authors, the meeting participants, and the sponsors: Aix Marseille Université (AMU), CNRS, ITMO GGB and BCDE, ECCOREV Federation, Conseil Général 13, Ville de Marseille. We also wish to thank the Springer editing staff and in particular Andrea Schlitzberger for her competence and help. v [email protected] vi Preface We wish also to thank members of the Association pour l’Etude de l’Evolution Biologique (AEEB) for their help in the meeting organisation, as well as AMU for its logistic support.

In this chapter, we describe an innovative modification of functional mapping to charac- terize the genetic basis of phenotypic plasticity for the developmental pattern of phenotypic traits. Phenotypic plasticity is a phenomenon by which multiple phe- notypes are produced by a single genotype in response to changing environment. Although phenotypic plasticity has been extensively studied in the past decades, new insights into its formation mechanisms can be gained by integrating devel- opmental principles because environmentally induced phenotypes require time to form and build. The new framework for functional mapping enables geneticists to illustrate the genetic architecture of how QTLs cope with environment to regulate the developmental pattern and timing of phenotypic formation. Because of their role in guiding the evolution of complex phenotypes through environmental adaptation, the discoveries of these QTLs facilitate the synthesis of evo-devo and eco-devo.

  • 2017-Sisters-Healthcare-Letter-With
    Since this letter was circulated, Senate leadership has repeatedly changed course – from the BCRA, to a repeal of the Affordable Care Act without a replacement, to amendments of bills from 2015. This is not good governance. Catholic Sisters are united in defense of our nation’s most vulnerable, who are most at risk in these healthcare negotiations. Rather than continuing to negotiate partisan legislation that would cause tens of millions of Americans to lose access to health coverage, Congress should seek bipartisan solutions to expand quality, affordable coverage. As Catholic Sisters, we stand by our belief that health is a universal right and urge Senators to vote no on the motion to proceed for any bill that would repeal the ACA and cut Medicaid. July 24, 2017 United States Senate Capitol Building Washington, DC 20510 Dear Senators: We, more than 7,000 Catholic Sisters in the United States, write to urge you to cast a life- affirming “no” vote against the Better Care Reconciliation Act (BCRA). We have many concerns with this bill, but we are most troubled by the cuts it would make to Medicaid by ending the Medicaid expansion and instituting a per capita cap. Our faith urges us to care for all people and all of creation, especially the most vulnerable. The BCRA would be the most harmful legislation for American families in our lifetimes, and it goes against our Catholic faith teaching. As Pope Francis teaches, “health is not a consumer good, but a universal right, so access to health services cannot be a privilege.” Responding to this integral part of our faith, many of our religious congregations founded hospitals and hospital systems in the United States.

    Mamoli Zorzi and Manthorne (eds.) FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT WRITERS IN MUSEUMS 1798-1898 Edited by Rosella Mamoli Zorzi and Katherine Manthorne From Darkness to Light explores from a variety of angles the subject of museum ligh� ng in exhibi� on spaces in America, Japan, and Western Europe throughout the nineteenth and twen� eth centuries. Wri� en by an array of interna� onal experts, these collected essays gather perspec� ves from a diverse range of cultural sensibili� es. From sensi� ve discussions of Tintore� o’s unique approach to the play of light and darkness as exhibited in the Scuola Grande di San Rocco in Venice, to the development of museum ligh� ng as part of Japanese ar� s� c self-fashioning, via the story of an epic American pain� ng on tour, museum illumina� on in the work of Henry James, and ligh� ng altera� ons at Chatsworth, this book is a treasure trove of illumina� ng contribu� ons. FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT The collec� on is at once a refreshing insight for the enthusias� c museum-goer, who is brought to an awareness of the exhibit in its immediate environment, and a wide-ranging scholarly compendium for the professional who seeks to WRITERS IN MUSEUMS 1798-1898 proceed in their academic or curatorial work with a more enlightened sense of the lighted space.

Mario Marti. Da Dante a Croce. Proposte consensi dissensi. Pubblicazioni del Dipartimento di Filologia, Linguistica e Letteratura dell’Università di Lecce, 25. Galatina: Congedo, 2005. Pp. 187. I cavalli di razza — mi piace a volte ricordare a giovani colleghi — si riconoscono non solo dallo sprint iniziale, cioè dall’entusiasmo di ogni giovane studioso all’inizio della carriera, ma ancor più dalla capacità di restare in lizza sino alla conclusione della carriera, che va ben oltre l’attività didattica. Cavallo di razza eccezionale — e spero che la metafora non dispiaccia — è dunque Mario Marti, classe 1914 (come ricorda egli stesso orgogliosamente in questo volume), il quale pubblicò il suo primissimo scritto nel lontano 1943, come si legge nel suo penultimo volume, Ultimi contributi: dal certo al vero (Galatina: Congedo, 1995), corredato della bibliografia dell’Autore (pagg. 255-316). Bibliografia, questa di Marti, che già nel 1995, quando egli aveva compiuto gli ottanta anni di età, aveva raggiunto il numero di 969 scritti, che egli ha continuato ad aumentare nei due lustri susseguenti tramite un’attività di investigatore profondo, perspicace e diligente e che arriva dunque, come leggiamo nella bibliografia del presente volume (pagg. 175-81), a 1064 voci: un elenco, questo, già superato dato che il volume è stato consegnato alla stampa il 25 marzo 2005 e dato che il professor Mario Marti è tuttora impegnato su vari fronti della storia letteraria d’Italia.
