Aiming to analyze the pedagogic project of the course and the graduates' perception about their technical training. It was used a qualitative approach and turned to case study research, as well as basing on documentary analysis and observation. Started from literature review to support the analysis of educational legislation, IFES institutional documents and the pedagogical project of the course. With the theoretical basis consolidated, semi-structured interviews were done to nine participants, the interviews were subjected to content analysis, through technical analysis category. Understanding that the pedagogic project has two dimensions, the writing and the experienced, it started in a first moment with critical reflection of the written document and secondly to give contours to the pedagogic project experienced in the graduates' perception about their training. The results of this survey showed that on the way to a democratic school it is necessary to overcome the purely academic vision, the dialogue between the academic and the traditional knowledge may resignify the role of training in agroindustry, expanding the participation of the subjects and also enabling the construction of a effective collective project. / Esta pesquisa foi realizada no munic?pio de Venda Nova do Imigrante com os egressos do curso t?cnico em agroind?stria do Instituto Federal do Esp?rito Santo (IFES).

So, we tried to identify the strategies that have enabled the development of these two automobile companies of national nature, its growth ambitions and the way they related to multinationals, this industrial branch, installed here. High taxes that protected the Brazilian industry in the years 70/80, allowed the emergence of dozens of small manufacturers over the proposed period. However, the economic imbalance of the eighties, demanded immense creativity of these entrepreneurs, who started the 1990s with an economic opening that exposed their markets and companies for competition with imports. From this, we fix its technological developments and innovation capabilities as a central means for understanding their realities and potentials. Methodologically, this thesis was based on bibliographic analysis and primary documents, combined with several interviews with people involved in the issue, and others performed in various news programs. / A tese que segue, buscou analisar a ind?stria automobil?stica brasileira entre as d?cadas de 1970 e 1990 a partir da an?lise do desenvolvimento empresarial de Jo?o Gurgel, Aldo Besson e Iltemar Gobbi e suas empresas: Gurgel Motores S.A. e Aldo Auto Capas, renomeada posteriormente para Besson, Gobbi S.A. Para tanto, partimos da compreens?o de que a ind?stria automobil?stica desempenha ainda hoje papel central na economia brasileira. Assim, buscamos identificar as estrat?gias que permitiram o desenvolvimento destas duas empresas automobil?sticas de cunho nacional, suas ambi??es de crescimento e a forma com que se relacionavam com as multinacionais deste ramo industrial aqui instaladas. Os elevados impostos que protegiam a ind?stria brasileira, entre os anos 70/80, permitiram o surgimento de dezenas de pequenas montadoras ao longo do per?odo proposto, todavia, o desequil?brio econ?mico dos anos oitenta, exigia imensa criatividade destes empres?rios, que iniciaram a d?cada de 1990 com uma abertura econ?mica que exp?s seus mercados e empresas para a competi??o com os importados. Por esse meio, fixamos seus desenvolvimentos tecnol?gicos e capacidades de inova??o como meio central para a compreens?o de suas realidades e potencialidades. Metodologicamente, esta tese foi centrada em an?lises bibliogr?ficas e de documentos prim?rios, combinados com a realiza??o de diversas entrevistas com pessoas envolvidas ao tema e outras realizadas em programas jornal?sticos diversos.

In many species, including Syrian hamsters, male reproductive behavior depends on the perception of odor cues from conspecifics in the environment. Volatile odor cues are processed primarily by the main olfactory system, whereas non-volatile cues are processed primarily by the accessory olfactory system. Together, these two chemosensory systems mediate appetitive reproductive behaviors, such as attraction to female odors, and consummatory reproductive behaviors, such as copulation, in male Syrian hamsters. Main and accessory olfactory information are first integrated in the medial amygdala (MA), a limbic nucleus that is critical for the expression of reproductive behaviors. MA is densely interconnected with other ventral forebrain nuclei that receive chemosensory information and are sensitive to steroid hormones. Specifically, several lines of evidence suggest that MA may generate behavioral responses to socio-sexual odors via functional connections with the posterior bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST) and medial preoptic area (MPOA). It is unknown, however, how these three nuclei act as functional circuit to adaptively regulate appetitive and consummatory reproductive behaviors. Therefore, the overarching goal of this dissertation was to determine how BNST and MPOA function, both uniquely and as a circuit with MA, to generate attraction to female odors and copulatory behaviors in male Syrian hamsters. We found that BNST is required for attraction to female odors, but not for copulation, in sexually-naïve males. In contrast, MPOA is required for both attraction to female odors and for copulation in sexually-naïve males. Surprisingly, prior sexual experience mitigated the requirement of BNST and MPOA for these behaviors. Next, we found that MA preferentially transmits female odor information to BNST and to MPOA, whereas BNST relays female and male odor information equivalently to MPOA. Finally, we found that the functional connections between MA and BNST are required for attraction to female odors but not for copulation, whereas the functional connections between MA and MPOA are required for copulation but not for attraction to female odors. Ultimately, these data may uncover a fundamental mechanism by which this ventral forebrain circuit regulates appetitive and consummatory reproductive behaviors across many species and modalities.

Social conflict is a part of everyday life, and it can be a potent stressor for both humans and other animals. In the laboratory, when two Syrian hamsters (Mesocricetus auratus) compete for territory, a dominance hierarchy is quickly formed. Becoming subordinate is a significant stressor resulting in increased release of adrenocorticotropic hormone, β-endorphin, and cortisol. Defeated hamsters will also subsequently fail to display territorial aggression in future social encounters and will instead display increased submissive behavior, even in the presence of a smaller, non-aggressive intruder. This change in behavior is consistent and long-lasting and has been termed conditioned defeat (CD). Corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) is an important neuropeptide in the control of the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis response to stress. It is also involved in a number of behaviors such as anxiety, stress responding, food intake, learning, and memory. The widespread distribution of CRF, CRF-like peptides, and CRF receptors, particularly in brain sites related to anxiety, fear, and stress responses, suggests a role for CRF and CRF-like peptides in modulating emotional responses other than via HPA axis activity. It has also been shown that CRF may have a role in the acquisition and expression of CD. Non-specific and CRF type 2-specific CRF antagonists reduce the acquisition and expression of CD in male hamsters while injection of a CRF type 1-specific antagonist does not. Therefore, the goal of this dissertation was to investigate the role of CRF type 1 and 2 receptors in CD in hamsters and to identify neuroanatomical locations where CRF may be acting. It was found that non-specific or CRF type 1 receptor specific agonists enhance the expression, but not acquisition, of CD. Further, these agonists appear to enhance aggressive behavior in animals that were not previously defeated, suggesting a modulatory role for CRF type 1 receptors in agonistic behavior that depends on an animal’s previous social experience. Further, localization of CRF receptors was determined in hamster brain in sites thought important for CD and agonistic behavior, but changes in receptor binding following defeat were not observed. Implications of these results and future directions are discussed.

In Syrian hamsters, social behavior is mediated exclusively by chemosensory cues and circulating gonadal steroid hormones. Where these two signals are processed in the brain is unknown, but the posterior bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (pBNST) has been suggested as a candidate site. Therefore, we tested male hamsters’ preference for opposite-sex odors following excitotoxic lesions of the pBNST. Lesions of the pBNST (pBNST-X) eliminated male hamsters’ preference for opposite-sex odors. Furthermore, pBNST-X males spent significantly less time investigating female odors than clean odors and significantly less time investigating female odors than control males did. Lesions of the pBNST did not change male hamsters’ investigation of male odors. The deficits observed in pBNST-X males were not due to a failure to discriminate between odors, as pBNST-X males were able to distinguish between odors. Together, these data suggest the pBNST is critical for opposite-sex odor preference in male hamsters.

The industrial activities are preponderant in the question of the impact consequences for brazilian ecosystems. Amongst the human activities, the petroliferous industry in operation in Potiguar Petroliferous Basin (PPB) displays the constant risk of ambient impacts in the integrant cities, not only for the human populations and the environment, but also it reaches the native microorganisms of Caatinga ground and in the mangrove sediment. Not hindering, the elaboration of strategies of bioremediation for impacted areas pass through the knowledge of microbiota and its relations with the environment. Moreover, in the microorganism groups associated to oil, are emphasized the sulfate-reducing prokaryotes (SRP) that, in its anaerobic metabolism, these organisms participate of the sulfate reduction, discharging H2S, causing ambient risks and causing the corrosion of surfaces, as pipelines and tanks, resulting in damages for the industry. Some ancestries of PRS integrate the Archaea domain, group of microorganisms whose sequenced genomes present predominance of extremophilic adaptations, including surrounding with oil presence. This work has two correlated objectives: i) the detection and monitoring of the gene dsrB, gift in sulfate-reducing prokaryotes, through DGGE analysis in samples of mDNA of a mangrove sediment and semiarid soil, both in the BPP; ii) to relate genomic characteristics to the ecological aspects of Archaea through in silico studies, standing out the importance to the oil and gas industry. The results of the first work suggest that the petrodegraders communities of SRP persist after the contamination with oil in mangrove sediment and in semiarid soil. Comparing the populations of both sites, it reveals that there are variations in the size and composition during one year of experiments. In the second work, functional and structural factors are the probable cause to the pressure in maintenance of the conservation of the sequences in the multiple copies of the 16S rDNA gene. Is verified also the discrepancy established between total content GC and content GC of the same gene. Such results relating ribosomal genes and the ambient factors are important for metagenomic evaluations using PCR-DGGE. The knowledge of microbiota associated to the oil can contribute for a better destination of resources by the petroliferous industry and the development of bioremediation strategies. Likewise, search to lead to the best agreement of the performance of native microbiota in biogeochemical cycles in Potiguar Petroliferous Basin ecosystem / S?o diversas as atividades humanas respons?veis pela degrada??o ambiental observada no mundo moderno. As atividades industriais s?o preponderantes na quest?o das conseq??ncias impactantes para os ecossistemas brasileiros. Entre as atividades antr?picas, a ind?stria petrol?fera atuante na Bacia Petrol?fera Potiguar (BPP), exp?e a risco constante de impactos ambientais nos munic?pios integrantes, n?o s? as popula??es humanas e o meio ambiente, mas tamb?m atinge os microrganismos nativos do solo da Caatinga e no sedimento do manguezal. N?o obstante, a elabora??o de estrat?gias de biorremedia??o de ?reas impactadas perpassa, dentre outros aspectos, pelo conhecimento da microbiota e suas rela??es com o meio. Entre os grupos de microrganismos associados ao petr?leo, destacam-se os procariotos redutores de sulfato (PRS) que, em seu metabolismo anaer?bico, participam da redu??o do sulfato, liberando g?s sulf?drico, causando riscos ambientais e ocasionando a corros?o de superf?cies, como tubula??es e tanques, resultando em preju?zos para a ind?stria. Algumas linhagens de PRS integram o dom?nio Archaea, grupo de microrganismos cujos genomas seq?enciados apresentam predomin?ncia de adapta??es extremof?licas, incluindo ambientes com presen?a de petr?leo. Este trabalho tem dois objetivos correlacionados: i) detectar e monitorar o gene dsrB, presente em procariotos redutores de sulfato, por perfis de DGGE gerados a partir de amostras ambientais de mDNA do manguezal de Diogo Lopes, e do solo do semi-?rido da regi?o da BPP; ii) relacionar caracter?sticas gen?micas aos aspectos ecol?gicos de Archaea, ressaltando sua import?ncia para a ind?stria do petr?leo, atrav?s de estudos in silico. Os resultados do primeiro trabalho sugerem que as comunidades petrodegradadoras de PRS persistem ap?s a contamina??o por petr?leo em sedimento de manguezal e do solo do semi?rido. A compara??o entre as popula??es dos dois locais de amostragem revela que as mesmas apresentam varia??es em seu tamanho e composi??o ao longo de um ano de experimento. No segundo trabalho especula-se que fatores funcionais e estruturais s?o a causa da press?o para a manuten??o da conserva??o das seq??ncias nas m?ltiplas c?pias do gene 16S rDNA. Verifica-se tamb?m a discrep?ncia observada entre o conte?do GC total e conte?do GC do mesmo gene. Tais resultados relacionando genes ribossomais a fatores ambientais s?o importantes para avalia??es metagen?micas empregando PCR-DGGE. O conhecimento da microbiota associada ao petr?leo pode contribuir para uma melhor destina??o de recursos por parte da ind?stria petrol?fera e o desenvolvimento de estrat?gias de biorremedia??o. Outrossim, busca contribuir para o melhor entendimento da atua??o da microbiota nativa nos ciclos biogeoqu?micos em ecossistemas da Bacia Petrol?fera Potiguar

O debate teve in?cio em finais da d?cada de 1980, contudo, recentemente a desacelera??o da ind?stria ganhou for?a nas discuss?es do meio acad?mico. Entre as principais teses nesse debate est? a novo-desenvolvimentistas que acredita na desindustrializa??o precoce causada principalmente pela sobreaprecia??o cambial. Contudo, parte da heterodoxia acredita que a desacelera??o da ind?stria esteja mais relacionada com a taxa de investimento do que do c?mbio. N?o obstante, segundo a tese ortodoxa, a perda de competitividade devido ao custo elevado de produ??o pode ter causada a desindustrializa??o no Brasil. Por outro lado, parte da ortodoxia n?o acredita que o pa?s esteja se desindustrializando, mas est? ocorrendo uma converg?ncia da ind?stria brasileira ? m?dia mundial. Assim, na tentativa de lan?ar luz sobre esse debate, o presente estudo busca identificar as raz?es da desacelera??o da ind?stria brasileira, enfatizando aspectos pouco explorados na literatura, e tentar definir se o pa?s padece ou n?o de um processo de desindustrializa??o. Ao analisar diversos indicadores, sobretudo, em n?vel de quantum, encontramos fortes ind?cios de que a desacelera??o da ind?stria brasileira pode ser caracterizada como uma desindustrializa??o, por?m ainda insuficiente para qualificar como precoce, dada a perda de participa??o da produ??o f?sica na produ??o total e o aumento da participa??o dos bens prim?rios na pauta de exporta??o / This study aims to contribute with evidence to reinforce or not the thesis of a possible deindustrialization of the Brazilian economy, with emphasis on period after 1995. The debate began in the late 80s, however, recently the industry deceleration gained strength in discussions academic. Between the main theses in this debate is the new-development that believes in precocious deindustrialization caused primarily by overvaluation exchange rate. However, part of heterodoxy believes the industry downturn is more related to the rate of investment than the exchange rate. Nevertheless, according to the orthodox thesis the loss of competitiveness due to the high cost of production may have caused the de-industrialization in Brazil. On the other hand, part of Orthodoxy does not believe that the country is deindustrializing it, but is occurring convergence of Brazilian industry the world average. Thus, in an attempt to shed light on this debate, this study intends to identify the reasons for the deceleration of the Brazilian industry, emphasizing aspects underexplored in the literature and define whether or not the country suffers a process of deindustrialization. When analyzing various indicators, especially the quantum level we find strong indications that the deceleration of the Brazilian industry can be characterized as a deindustrialization, though still insufficient to qualify as precocious, given the loss of share in physical production in total output and the share of primary goods in the export basket
