THE TRANSGENERATIONAL TRAUMA OF DISPLACEMENT: REWRITING DIASPORIC SUBJECTIVITIES IN THE SHADOW OF THE PHANTOM OF THE (M)OTHERLAND

The Transgenerational Trauma of Displacement: Rewriting Diasporic Subjectivities in the Shadow of the Phantom of the (M)otherland

The argument of the present research is based on the premise that assiduous attention to the transgenerational traumatic aspect of diasporic displacements not only gives voice to the often covert narratives of loss and pain encrypted in the diasporic literature, but it also sheds light on the process of the negotiation of subjectivities by both the

Karyotype and male meiosis in Spartocera batatas and meiotic behaviour of multiple sex chromosomes in Coreidae (Heteroptera)

The Coreidae (Heteroptera) have holokinetic chromosomes and during male meiosis the autosomal bivalents segregate reductionally at anaphase I while the sex chromosomes do so equationally.The modal diploid chromosome number of the family is Metabolism 2n = 21, with a pair of m-chromosomes and an X0/XX sex chromosome system.A 2n = 24/26 (male/female)

Genome-wide analysis of the WSD family in sunflower and functional identification of HaWSD9 involvement in wax ester biosynthesis and osmotic stress

The wax esters are important cuticular wax composition that cover the outer surface of plant organs and play a critical role in protection and energy metabolism.Wax ester synthesis in plant is catalyzed by a bifunctional wax ester synthase/acyl-CoA: diacylglycerol acyltransferase (WSD).Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is an important oil crop in th
