A doença esta entre as seis doenças infecciosas parasitárias de maior importância em saúde pública, apresentando-se de maneira endêmica em pelo menos 98 países. Cerca de 15 espécies de Leishmania são capazes de infectar o homem e causar a Leishmaniose Tegumentar Americana (ATL), dentre elas a Leishmania (V.) braziliensis, que é responsável pelas formas clinicas na região de Corte de Pedra (CP). São encontradas três formas clínicas de LTA em CP: LC (leishmaniose cutânea), LM (leishmaniose mucosa) e LD (leishmaniose disseminada), sendo esta forma emergente. Dentro os nossos objetivos foram: (1) avaliar se os genótipos dos loci do CHR24/3074 e CHR 28/425451 da L. (V.) braziliensis se apresentam em equilíbrio (Lei HW); (2) analisar os índices de heterozigosidade nesses loci e se eles variam de acordo com a origem clínica do isolado parasitário; (3) analisar se os índices heterozigosidade das amostras do período de 2008-2012 em relação ao período de 1992-2001; (4) avaliar a diferenciação (Fst) entre as populações e entre as subpopulações isoladas de diferentes formas de LTA; (5) avaliar a incidência dos genótipos dos loci CHR 28/425451 e CHR 24/3074. Neste estudo de corte transversal, duas amostras de L. (V.) braziliensis isoladas de pacientes de LTA foram exploradas, uma obtida entre 1992 e 2001 (n= 35), outra entre 2008 e 2011 (n=108 do CHR 28/425451 e n=115 do CHR 24/3074). Os parasitas foram genotipados por sequenciamento do locus CHR 28/425451 e CHR 24/3074. Então as frequências alélicas foram determinadas, e a heterozigosidade e o EHW dos genótipos observados avaliados. As frequências dos alelos detectados no locus CHR28/425451 variaram de acordo com a estação de transmissão de LTA considerada no período 2008-2011. Os genótipos no locus CHR 28/425451 mostraram-se em EHW nas duas amostras analisadas (p>0,05 para x2 de genótipos observados versus de esperados). De forma geral, as heterozigosidades observadas para o locus entre os dois períodos estudados foi similar (1992-2001:49%; 2008-2001: 48,72%). Contudo, entre 2008 e 2011, a heterozigozidade em L. (V.) braziliensis isoladas de LD foi inferior (45%) às dos parasitas obtidos de LC (58,22%) e LM (66,67%). No CHR 24/3074 os valores da heterozigosidade observada foram próximas. Em relação as formas clínicas a LD apresentou heterozigosidade observada menor do que LM (33%) e LC (25%) em Conclusões: (1) o EHW encontrado para os genótipos sugere que troca de material genético deva ser frequente entre L.(V.) braziliensis de focos de transmissão de LTA; (2) os achados sobre heterozigosidade sugerem que os parasitas envolvidos na LD devem ter sido mais recentemente incorporados à população causadora de LTA na região. O nível de FST do CHR 28/425451 mostrou uma pequena diferenciação. Possivelmente isto deve ter acontecido pelas cepas já terem trocado material.

In this thesis, we consider linear extremal problems in the Hp spaces. For many of these extremal problems, a unique solution can be guaranteed. We will examine some of the classical examples of extremal problems in these spaces. With this framework in place we will then consider a particular problem which does not always have a unique solution.

Thomas Hardy souhaitait que l’on se rappelât de lui comme poète. Sa réputation fut cependant bâtie sur ses romans. Partant de là, ses nouvelles, à la fois proches et différentes de sa production romanesque et poétique, offrent une perspective unique sur l’ensemble des écrits. Cette thèse se propose ainsi d’étudier les choix d’écriture en matière de discours narratif et de posture du narrateur. Il s’agit de comprendre de quelle façon les nouvelles, négligées au moins jusqu’aux travaux récents de Kristin Brady (The Short Stories of Thomas Hardy. Tales of Past and Present, 1982) et de Martin Ray (A Textual History of Hardy’s Short Stories, 1997), s’insèrent dans l’oeuvre et y trouvent leur juste place. Des analyses, menées au moyen de la narratologie de Genette ainsi que de la théorie de l’énonciation, montrent qu’une stratégie d’ensemble régit les choix en direction du narrateur. Il apparaît que toute ambivalence ou signe contradictoire surgissant ça et là relève encore de cette stratégie, laquelle est au service du projet d’écriture : raconter une histoire tout en faisant état de ce que Hardy nomme « les relations entre les sexes ». Au vu des contraintes et des codes auxquels la fiction et plus particulièrement le roman, doit se plier au cours de la période victorienne, une telle ambition semblerait vouée à l’échec, n’était la liberté offerte par la nouvelle, un genre dont l’étude formelle est alors en cours de développement. Au cours de l’étude, les nouvelles, en raison des différentes stratégies narratives qu’elles développent, émergent comme un espace médian faisant lien entre les romans et les poèmes : les premiers relèvent d’un genre alors trop codifié, et les seconds sont le lieu d’une liberté que l’auteur juge totale : « Perhaps I can express more fully in verse ideas and emotions which run counter to the inert crystallized opinion ».1 Au final, les nouvelles apparaissent comme une part essentielle de l’oeuvre, à égalité avec les romans et les poèmes qu’elles mettent en dialogue. Leur étude permet de comprendre les raisons qui ont incité l’auteur à mettre fin à sa carrière de romancier, alors même qu’il a poursuivi la rédaction de nouvelles jusqu’au début du vingtième siècle. Elle explique aussi pourquoi seule la poésie permettait à Hardy d’accomplir sa mission de raconteur d’histoires et d’observateur de la société de son temps. Enfin, et ce n’est pas le moindre de leur intérêt, les nouvelles offrent une occasion rare de considérer de plus près la figure qui abrite ce qui est communément appelé « l’auteur dans le texte ». / Thomas Hardy wanted to be remembered as a poet. His reputation, however, was built on his novels. In light of this, his short stories, both different from, and similar to, his novels and his poetry stylistically, offer a unique perspective on his writing as a whole. Accordingly, the purpose of this thesis is to study the choices the author made as regards the narrator’s posture and discourse. It ultimately aims at understanding how the short stories, long neglected and only quite recently brought into a new light by Kristin Brady’s The Short Stories of Thomas Hardy. Tales of Past and Present (1982) and Martin Ray’s A Textual History of Hardy’s Short Stories (1997), fit into the complete body of Hardy’s works. Analyses permitted by Gérard Genette’s theory of narratology and the French enunciation theory reveal that an overall strategy governs all the choices pertaining to the narrator, and that any contradictory or ambivalent sign is just part and parcel of that general scheme: to tell a story while offering the reader a snapshot of what Hardy called « the relation of the sexes ». Given the requirements that fiction, and more particularly the novel, had to meet in Victorian times, such a plan appears doomed to fail, were it not for the elbow room enabled by the short story, then a nascent genre. In the course of the study, Hardy’s short stories emerge as a middle ground between his novels and his poems in terms of the various narrative strategies they make it possible for the author to develop. By comparison, the novel is at that time far too coded as a genre to allow such liberties, and poetry is a completely free ground where Hardy can « express more fully […] ideas and emotions which run counter to the inert crystallized opinion ».2 Eventually, the short stories appear an essential part of Hardy’s works, on equal terms with his novels and his poems. They shed bright light on the reason why Hardy decided to put an end to his career as a novelist whereas he went on writing short fiction until the turn of the century. They also make it clear in what sense only poetry could fit what he wanted to accomplish both as a storyteller and as an observer of the society of his time. Last but not least, the short stories offer a rare opportunity to look closer to the figure which lies behind what we call « the author-in-the-text ».

The purpose of this thesis is to examine Thomas Hardy's treatment of nature in his major works. His interpretation of nature was sharply divergent from the traditional viewpoint regarding the natural world, and it was the direct antithesis of those interpretations of nature made by the writers who had preceded him.

A field study was conducted to evaluate the influence of a trellis system, Genova double curtain (GDC), Scott Henry (SH), mid-wire that was vertical shoot positioned (VSP), and high wire cordon (HW), on fruit ripening and indirectly its influence on cold hardiness for cold-hardy, red wine grape cultivars, Marquette and Petite Pearl. In 2017, ‘Petite Pearl’ reached higher yields than ‘Marquette’, while VSP and SH trellis systems resulted in higher yields. However, in 2018, ‘Marquette’ had a greater yield than ‘Petite Pearl’. In 2019, 77.34% of ‘Marquette’ and 52.34% of ‘Petite Pearl’ had severe winter injury regardless of the trellis system. Unpredictable climate patterns in terms of growing degree-days, minimum winter air temperature, and rainfall manipulated both cultivars’ phenology during early establishment. Results suggest that under North Dakota climatic conditions, proper cultivar selection is more important than trellis system selection for sustainable grape production.
