THE FATTY ACID COMPOSITION OF EWE MILK, AS AFFECTED BY SOLAR RADIATION UNDER HIGH AMBIENT TEMPERATURE
The effect of plant density with different row spacing on quality of the fatty acid composition and grain yield of sunflower.
Effects of the Soil Incorporation of Increasing Amounts of Non-Fermented Wet Pomace on the Oil Yield and Acid Profile of Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) Seeds
Abstract
The agricultural use of olive processing waste is a strategic resource in the integrated management of the agricultural
system as it satisfies the two objectives of evacuating the olive-processing residue and using it beneficially for
agricultural purposes. For such aims, a research was conducted in Bari (South of Italy) to study the effects of the
incorporation into the soil of increasing amounts of non-fermented wet pomace (WP) (0, 17.5, 35, 70, 105, 140, 175,
210 Mg ha-1) on the oil yield and acid profile of sunflower seeds.
The results obtained point out that the seed yield was negatively affected by the application of WP starting from 70
Mg ha-1; an opposite trend was observed for the seed oil yield. The incorporation of WP has also affected the oil fatty
acids’ composition. Oleic and linoleic acids, the principal fatty acids (beyond 90% of total fatty acids), showed significant
variations: from the control treatment to the one receiving the maximum application of waste, oleic acid decreased
(-5.4%), linoleic acid increased (+ 6.6%), and the saturated fatty acids fraction decreased (-7.6%)

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
