Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) genome: sequencing and analysis of chromosome 12
The Solanaceae family includes a number of closely related plant species with diverse phenotypes that have been exploited for agronomic, pharmaceutical and ornamental purposes. In 2003 'The International Solanaceae Genome Project' (SOL) launched the initiative to sequence the 220 Mb of euchromatin of the tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) genome as the central part of a wider project aiming to increase our knowledge about diversity and adaptation in crop species (http://www.sgn.cornell.edu/solanaceae-project/). The sequencing proceeds on a BAC-by-BAC basis with the 12 chromosomes divided over several genomic laboratories of ten different countries. As a member of the project, the Italian research team is involved in the sequencing of the euchromatin portions of chromosome 12.
During my PhD project, I had the opportunity to face this challenging project from different points of view including molecular, cytogenetic and bioinformatic analysis.
A large part of my effort was focused in setting up a sequencing pipeline and starting the construction of a minimal subset of BAC clones covering the chromosome 12 euchromatin with minimal overlaps. The progress can be viewed through the development of the TPF and AGP files, available from the SGN repository (http://www.sgn.cornell.edu/).
A key step for the success of the sequencing project is the identification of a reliable minimal tiling path of neighbouring BAC clones. To improve this process, I contributed to the development of a informatics pipeline called PABS (Platform Assisted BAC-by-BAC Sequencing), freely available to the community at our web site (http://tomato.cribi.unipd.it/files/bioinformatics.html) (Todesco S. et al., 2008). PABS has been specifically designed to minimize the negative impact of genomic repeats, considering that a repeat element can connect non-contiguous regions of the genome,
leading to misalignment of BACs and possible "jumps" along the genome. PABS has two main functions: 1) PABS-Select, to choose suitable overlapping clones for the sequencing walk; 2) PABS-Validate to verify whether a BAC under analysis is actually overlapping the preceding BAC.
A BAC-based physical map is a fundamental tool to further assist the sequencing work but also to connect the minimal tiling path of BACs. In my study, I improved the molecular combing technique (Lebofsky R. et al., 2003; Monier K et al., 2001; Allemand JF et al., 1997) for producing multicolour FISH on stretched genomic DNA molecules. This technique allows accurate mapping of BAC clones and precise measurement of physical distances between contigs with a spatial resolution of 1 to 5 kb.
Finally, to explore the data generated by the BAC-by-BAC sequencing I contributed to a preliminary annotation of the tomato BACs sequences. As a result of this analysis, we outlined some features of the gene organization in the tomato genome

Capitolo 3: Meta–ultramafiti proterozoiche e Metamafiti paleozoiche -Rocce Verdi- nell’Architettura Sacra Normanno–Gotica (XII–XIV secolo) della Cattedrale di Messina.
The third site concerns the Cathedral of Messina. After an introduction on the origin and classification of the “Green Rocks” (mafites and ultra–mafites) and their use in the architectural complex of the surrounding territory, their use (as meta–peridotites, meta–hornblendites and amphibolites) in the Gothic architecture of the site is dealt with, as well as their state of conservation, composition (petro–archaeological analysis) and origin. Particular attention is given to the reconstruction of the dangerous events the site has undergone over the centuries, of both natural (earthquakes, atmospheric agents etc.) and anthropic (bombardments, fires, looting etc.) origin. The restoration work carried out over time is also described. One particularly significant result of the research regards the interdisciplinary reconstruction of the geological–geomorphological and historical–architectural evolution of the site, in the territorial context of the Calabrian–Sicilian area between Aspromonte and Peloritani (Straits of Messina area)
MonitorNet: the Italian multi-centre observational study aimed at estimating the risk/benefit profile of biologic agents in real-world rheumatology practice
MonitorNet is a database established by the Italian Society of Rheumatology (SIR) in January 2007 and funded by the Italian Medicines Agency (AIFA), for the active long-term follow-up of patients with rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis treated with biologic agents. All hospital Rheumatology Units in Italy were invited to participate in a non-interventional, observational, epidemiological study. The study is conducted in a routine clinical setting (real-world practice) where biologics are prescribed on the basis of current recommendations. In this report we describe the design, methodology, and present preliminary data of the study. At the time of the analysis (April 2009) the database included 3510 patients: 2469 (70.3%) with established RA, 675 (19.2%) with PsA and 366 (10.4%) with AS. The cumulative follow up period was 8,787 patient-years (RA: 8,388, PsA: 157; AS: 242). There were 1,538 adverse events in 938 (26.7%) patients. Infections were recorded in 630 patients, skin-related adverse events in 142 and post-infusion reactions in 90. A total of 30 malignancies were reported. An interim analysis of efficacy was conducted on 2,148 RA patients. Seven hundred and thirty-one patients (35.8%) achieved EULAR remission (defined as DAS28<2.4). When assessed with the more restrictive CDAI and SDAI criteria, the frequency of remission was lower (17.9% and 14.7% respectively). Availability of funding for this study provided an opportunity to organize a collaborative national network of rheumatology clinics to develop a large multicentre observational study
