Foram utilizados quatro machos castrados Holand?s x Zebu, fistulados no r?men, com peso vivo m?dio de 664 kg, distribu?dos em delineamento quadrado latino 4 x 4. Os tratamentos consistiram em quatro dietas isoproteicas e isoenerg?ticas, formuladas com rela??o volumoso:concentrado 60:40 com base na mat?ria seca (MS). O volumoso foi composto de silagem de milho (51% MS) e? feno de Tifton (49% MS), e o concentrado formulado com n?veis crescentes de substitui??o do farelo de soja pelo farelo de crambe em 0%, 2,8%, 6,4% e 11,0% na MS da dieta. O comportamento ingestivo foi avaliado atrav?s do m?todo direto de avalia??o visual, em intervalos de 10 minutos, durante per?odos de 24 horas. Registrou-se a frequ?ncia de alimenta??o, rumina??o e ?cio e a posi??o do animal (em p? ou em dec?bito). As vari?veis em p? e em dec?bito n?o diferiram entre os tratamentos, assim como os tempos gastos em alimenta??o, rumina??o e ?cio. O consumo de mat?ria seca e de FDN expressos em g/dia e gFDN/dia respectivamente, a efici?ncia de rumina??o expressa em gMS/min, a efici?ncia de rumina??o expressa em gFDN/dia e o tempo de mastiga??o total n?o diferiram significativamente. No entanto, a efici?ncia de alimenta??o (gMS/min) variou de forma linear decrescente com a inclus?o do farelo de crambe. Os per?odos do dia influenciaram todas as atividades. O maior tempo de alimenta??o foi observado nos per?odos ap?s o fornecimento da dieta e a maior atividade de rumina??o foi verificada no per?odo noturno. A substitui??o de farelo de soja por farelo de crambe n?o afetou o comportamento ingestivo, exceto para o par?metro efici?ncia de alimenta??o. Neste sentido, considerando o comportamento ingestivo, recomenda-se a substitui??o do farelo de soja por farelo de crambe para alimenta??o de bovinos leiteiros. / Disserta??o (Mestrado) ?

Four male Holstein x Zebu rumen, with average live weight of 664kg distributed in latin square design 4 x 4. The treatments consisted of four diets isonitrogenous and isocaloric, formulated roughage used concentrate 60:40 with based on dry matter (DM). The forage was corn silage (51% DM) and Tifton grass hay (49% DM), and the concentrate was formulated with increasing levels of substitution of soy bean meal by crambe meal at 0%, 2.8%, 6.4% and 11.0% of the diet DM. The feeding behavior was evaluated using the direct method of visual assessment in intervals10 minute during a 24 hour period. Recorded the frequency of feeding, idling time and the animal's position (standing or supine). The variables standing and supine id not differ between treatments as well as spending one a ting, ruminating and idling times. The consumption of dry matter and NDF expressed in g/day and gNDF/day respectively, the efficiency of rumination expressed in gDM/min, the efficiency of rumination expressed in gNDF/day and the total chewing time did not differ significantly. However, the efficiency of power (gDM/min) ranged from decreasing linearly with the inclusion of crambe meal. Periods of the day influenced all the activities. The longer feeding time was observed in the periods after the diet intake and greater rumination activity was observed at night. The replacement of soy bean meal by meal crambe, did not affect feeding behavior, except for the feeding efficiency parameter. In this sense, considering the feeding behavior, it is recommended there placement of soy bean meal by crambe meal to feed dairy cattle.

A capacidade de influenciar a experi?ncia e express?o emocional, conhecida como regula??o emocional (RE), pode ser cr?tica ao lidar com n?veis significativos de estresse. Especificamente, a RE atrav?s de cogni??es, ou pensamentos (ou seja, Regula??o Emocional Cognitiva, REC), ajuda os indiv?duos a manter o controle sobre sua experi?ncia emocional durante, ou depois de serem expostos a eventos estressores, ou traum?ticos. O Question?rio de Regula??o Emocional Cognitiva (CERQ), foi desenvolvido para medir nove diferentes estrat?gias de REC que se referem ? maneira consciente e atencional de lidar com eventos de vida amea?adores, ou negativos. Objetivos: Os objetivos gerais desta disserta??o foram desenvolver e investigar as evid?ncias de validade da vers?o brasileira do CERQ (Estudo 1) e investigar a rela??o entre a exposi??o a traumas, estrat?gias cognitivas de RE, afeto e Sintomas de Estresse P?s-Traum?tico (SEPT) atrav?s de um modelo de media??o dupla (Estudo 2). M?todo: Uma amostra de 445 estudantes universit?rios completou um Question?rio S?cio-Demogr?fico, a Life of Events Checklist (LEC-5), a vers?o brasileira do CERQ, a Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) e a Posttraumatic Symptoms Checklist (PCL-5) em uma plataforma de pesquisa on-line. Para o Estudo 1, o processo de adapta??o da vers?o brasileira do CERQ incluiu tradu??o, retro-tradu??o, avalia??o de ju?zes e teste em 30 participantes da popula??o-alvo. As evid?ncias de validade de construto foram avaliadas atrav?s de an?lise fatorial confirmat?ria, da consist?ncia interna atrav?s dos alfas de Cronbach e de correla??es com as vari?veis afetivas mensuradas pelo PANAS. Para o Estudo 2 foram realizadas an?lises preliminares de correla??o e de regress?o linear m?ltipla para investigar associa??es entre tipo de trauma, estrat?gias cognitivas de regula??o emocional, afeto e severidade de SEPT. Em seguida, um modelo com rumina??o e afeto negativo como mediadores do efeito da exposi??o ao trauma les?o moral causada por outros sobre os SEPT foi testado usando o macro PROCESS para o SPSS. Resultados: As an?lises de validade mostraram que a estrutura original do CERQ possui boa validade fatorial na amostra e alta confiabilidade, com ? de Cronbach variando entre .71 e .88. An?lises preliminares de associa??o entre tipo de trauma, estrat?gias de regula??o emocional cognitiva, afeto e SEPT mostraram que o tipo de trauma de les?o moral causada por outros, rumina??o e afeto negativo s?o preditores significativos da gravidade de SEPT. Ao testar o modelo de media??o dupla, os resultados sugerem que a rumina??o ? um mediador forte e independente entre o tipo de trauma de les?o moral causada por outros e SEPT, enquanto afeto negativo ? um mediador apenas quando a rumina??o est? presente no modelo. Discuss?o: Nossos resultados indicam que a vers?o brasileira do CERQ ? uma ferramenta v?lida e confi?vel para avaliar as estrat?gias cognitivas de regula??o emocional e que os indiv?duos expostos ao tipo de trauma de les?o moral causada pelos outros utilizam rumina??o como uma estrat?gia de regula??o emocional cognitiva com mais frequ?ncia. O uso aumentado dessa estrat?gia amplifica os n?veis de afeto negativo que acaba levando a n?veis mais elevados de SEPT. Em geral, esses resultados podem influenciar pesquisas e auxiliar no desenvolvimento e melhoria de interven??es cognitivas para indiv?duos expostos a eventos traum?ticos. / Background: Literature suggests that emotional responses are associated to the development and maintenance of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) symptoms. The ability to influence emotional experience and expression, known as emotion regulation (ER), can be critical when dealing with significant levels of stress. Specifically, ER through cognitions, or thoughts (i.e. Cognitive Emotion Regulation; CER), helps individuals to maintain control over their emotional experience during, or after being exposed to stressful, or traumatic events. The Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ) was developed to measure nine different CER strategies that refer to the conscious and attentional way people deal with threatening, or negative life events. Objectives: Therefore, the general purposes of this thesis were to develop and evaluate validity evidences of the Brazilian version of the CERQ (Study 1) and to investigate the relationship between trauma exposure, cognitive emotion regulation strategies, affect and Posttraumatic Stress Symptoms (PTSS) testing for a double mediation model (Study2). Method: A sample of 445 university students completed a Socio-Demographic Questionnaire, the Life of Events Checklist (LEC-5), the Brazilian version of the CERQ, the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) and the Posttraumatic Symptoms Checklist (PCL-5) on an on-line research platform. For Study 1, adaptation process of the Brazilian version of the CERQ included translation, backtranslation, expert committee?s evaluation, and testing on 30 participants from the target population. Validity evidence was assessed through confirmatory factor analysis, internal consistency through the Cronbach?s alpha analysis, and correlations with the affective variables measured by the PANAS. For Study 2, preliminary correlation and multiple linear regression analyses were conducted to investigate associations among trauma type exposure, cognitive emotion regulation strategies, affect and PTSS severity. Next, a model positing rumination and negative affect as double mediators of the effect of trauma type of moral injury by others on PTSS was tested using the PROCESS macro for SPSS. Results: Validity analyses showed that the original structure of the CERQ has good factorial validity in the sample and high reliabilities, with Cronbach?s ? ranging between .71 and .88. Preliminary analyses of the association among trauma type, cognitive emotion regulation strategies, affect and PTSS showed that trauma type of moral injury, rumination and negative affect were significant predictors of PTSS severity. When testing for the double mediation model, results suggested that rumination is a strong and independent mediator between trauma type moral injury by others and PTSS, while negative affect is a mediator only when rumination is also included. Discussion: Our results indicate that the Brazilian version of the CERQ is a valid and reliable tool for assessing cognitive emotion regulation strategies, and that individuals who are exposed to trauma type of moral injury by others engage more frequently in rumination as a cognitive emotion regulation strategy, which in turn amplifies levels of negative effect that ends up leading to higher levels of PTSS. Overall, these results can influence further researches and aid the development and improvement of cognitive treatment interventions for individuals exposed to traumatic events.

Exploring the taxonomy of a facultative selfing, polymorphic land snail: the genus Rumina, Gastropoda Pulmonata / Etude de la taxonomie d'un escargot terrestre polymorphique et capable de se reproduire par l'autofécondation: le genre Rumina, Gastropoda Pulmonata

Prévot, Vanya 14 September 2011 (has links)
Le genre Rumina Risso, 1926 (Subulinidae) est constitué de gastéropodes terrestres, hermaphrodites et capables de réaliser de l’autofécondation ainsi que de la fécondation croisée. Plusieurs espèces ont été décrites sur base de subtiles différences morphologiques telles que la forme et la taille de la coquille et la coloration du corps. Trois espèces sont actuellement toujours reconnue dans la littérature: Rumina decollata (Linnaeus, 1758), R. saharica Pallary, 1901 et R. paivae (Lowe 1861). Cependant, uniquement le statut spécifique de R. decollata et R. saharica a été confirmé par la morphologie de la coquille et l'anatomie génitale. L’objectif de la thèse est de clarifier la taxonomie du genre Rumina par une approche de taxonomie intégrative en associant des caractères moléculaires, morphologiques et anatomiques ainsi que les méthodes issues de la génétique des populations. Quatre gènes mitochondriaux et deux gènes nucléaires ont été séquencés pour reconstruire la phylogénie de Rumina. Les résultats confirment le statut d’espèce de R. saharica, excluent R. paivae en tant qu’espèce et proposent une nouvelle classification pour R. decollata en 6 espèces phylogénétiques. R. saharica est aussi confirmé en tant qu’espèce morphologique suite à une étude morphomètrique, cependant les nouvelles espèces de R. decollata n’ont pas pu être différenciées ni par les variables morphologiques testées, ni par des particularités dans l’anatomie génitale. Néanmoins, deux des espèces de R. decollata correspondent à deux morphotypes (clair et foncé) auparavant décrits et étudiés dans la région de Montpellier. L’étude de ces deux espèces phylogénétiques avec des microsatellites et allozymes permettent de confirmer le statut spécifique des deux morphotypes et révèlent que R. decollata pratique l’autofécondation croisée à un taux supérieur à celui rapporté dans la littérature, défiant ainsi la règle selon laquelle les hermaphrodites pratiqueraient exclusivement l’autofécondation ou exclusivement la fécondation croisée. L’espèce correspondante au morphotype foncé a été introduite en plusieurs endroits du monde et semble être l’espèce possédant la plus grande capacité invasive parmi les Rumina. Ainsi, nos résultats suggèrent que le genre Rumina, auparavant décrit comme étant composé de trois espèces, est en fait un complexe de sept espèces, qui doivent être davantage étudiées de façon à confirmer leur statut d’espèce par d’autres concepts d’espèce. / Rumina spp. Risso, 1826 (family Subulinidae) is a hermaphroditic terrestrial snail, performing both selfing and outcrossing. Several nominal species have been described based on subtle differences in the shape and size of the shell, and body coloration. Currently, three taxa are still recognized, viz. R. decollata (Linnaeus, 1758), R. saharica Pallary, 1901 and R. paivae (Lowe, 1860). Yet, species-specific differentiation has only been confirmed for R. decollata and R. saharica, based on shell and genital morphology. This work aims at resolving the taxonomy of the genus Rumina through an integrative taxonomic approach by combining molecular, morphological and anatomical characters, as well as population genetic methods. Four mitochondrial and two nuclear genes were used to infer Rumina’s phylogeny. Results suggest that R. saharica is a phylogentic species, R. paivae is not a phylogenetic species and R. decollata is composed by 6 phylogenetic species. The specific status of R. saharica was confirmed by a morphometric analysis, however the remaining phylogenetic species of R. decollata could not be differentiated neither by the shell characters analyzed nor by the genital anatomy. Nevertheless, two phylogenetic species of Rumina representing the dark and light colored strains previously described in the Montpellier region. The study of both these strains with microsatellites and allozymes confirmed their specific status and revealed that outcrossing might be more prevalent than was previously suggested in the literature, therefore defying the alleged rule that hermaphroditic species should be either strict self-fertilizers or strict outcrosser. The dark strain was introduced in several places through the world and seems to be the one with highest invasive character within the genus Rumina. Therefore, our results suggest that the genus Rumina, previously described as having three species, is in fact a complex of seven species that need to be further explored in order to confirm their species status under other species concepts. / Doctorat en Sciences / info:eu-repo/semantics/nonPublished
