- Abstract:
- ... The first investigation of dietary intake in the Mediterranean region was undertaken at the initiative of the government of Greece in 1948. Plant foods (cereals, pulses, nuts, potatoes, vegetables and fruits) accounted for 61 % of total energy intake (TEI), animal foods (meat, eggs, fish and dairy products) for 7 % of TEI and olive oil was the main oil used. In 1950s, Ancel Keys undertook studies ...

- Abstract:
- ... Microplastics are contaminants of great concern all over the world. Microplastics constitute pollutants themselves; moreover, other contaminants such as metals are easily absorbed on their plastic surface, becoming bioavailable to marine biota such as zooplankton.We collected marine zooplankton from Mediterranean Sea to investigate trace elements associated with microplastics. Samples were subject ...

- Abstract:
- ... Invasive non‐native species (INNS) are one of the major threats to global biodiversity. Climate change and garden bird‐feeding may facilitate the establishment of INNS. The Red‐billed Leiothrix Leiothrix lutea is a small woodland passerine, native to subtropical Asia, that is an INNS in several parts of the world, including Europe, following escapes from the aviculture trade. Recently, populations ...

One of the main problems in the assessment of fungal species is that the categorization of some fungi does not properly reflect the current risk of extinction. For example, the IUCN risk category of B. phalloides is oscillating in England and unclear in Hungar ...

Vaccination was promoted ...

Molecular analysis of nucleotide sequences of mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit 1 (COI) and 16S ribosomal DNA (16SrDNA) as well as nuclear histone 3 (H3) and internal transcribed spacer 2 of rDNA (ITS2) gene fragments together with morphological analysis of shell and genitalia features showed that English, French and Italian populations usually assigned to Monacha cantiana consist of four d ...

- Abstract:
- ... The Blackcap Sylvia atricapilla is a model species for the evolution of bird migration in a time of global change. However, many assumptions about putative changes to their migratory paths have not been verified because, until recently, it has not been possible to track individual small passerines throughout the entire migration cycle. With the recent development of miniaturised light-level geoloc ...

- ... Genetic structure in broadly distributed herbs may be shaped by past climate events, leading to distinct genetic lineages, and possibly to different Evolutionary Significant Units (ESUs). We identified the potential glacial refugia, postglacial (re)colonization routes, contact zones and ESUs in the widespread but locally rare Silene nutans to propose appropriate conservation strategies related to ...

More than 10 years ago, when T. callipaeda was confined to remote regions of southern Italy, ecological niche models were used to predict the potential distribution of P. variegata across Europe and the likely risk of the nemato ...

In this logic, nation-states (or any political or administrative unit) spatially integrate different types and physical appearances of land cover. Understanding regions in the sense that similar physical charact ...

The artichoke is native of the Mediterranean basin, but the history of its domestication is not yet completely clear; certainly plants similar to the present artichoke, were known and appreciated by the ancient Greeks and Romans. Recent studies suggest that the artichoke domestication started in Roman times, around the 1st century AD probably in Sicily; then the crop was spread by Arabs, who domin ...
