Abstract (sommario):

Alien-encounter SF involves the introduction of sentient alien beings into the actantial system of the fictional universe; one or more of the actants are nonhuman or superhuman or subhuman. By staging a confrontation between an alien actant and a terran representative, alien-encounter SF broaches the question of Self and the Other. The reader recuperates this fiction by comparing human and alien entities, measuring the Self by examining the Other. Alien encounters can be discriminated according to the extent to which the alien actant adheres to or departs from anthropocentric norms; in simple terms, we can distinguish between “human aliens” and “alien aliens.” This article examines the nature of human aliens by analyzing Orson Scott Card’s Ender trilogy, a work which theorizes and surveys possible sets of relations between terran and alien actants. It explores the problematics of alien aliens by looking at appropriate texts by Lem, Benford, and Clarke. (CDM)

Abstract (sommario):

We record 201 alien curculionoids established in Europe, of which 72 originates from outside Europe. Aliens to Europe belong to five families, but four-fifth of them are from family Curculionidae. Many families and subfamilies, among which species-rich ones, have few representatives among alien curculionoids, whereas some others are over-represented; these latter, Dryophthoridae, Cossoninae and specially Scolytinae, all contains many xylophagous species. The number of new records of alien species increases continuously, with an acceleration during the last decades. Aliens to Europe originate from all parts of the world, but mainly Asia; few alien curculionoids originate from Africa. Italy and France host the largest number of alien to Europe. The number of aliens per country decreases eastwards, but is mainly correlated with importations amount and, secondary, with warm climates. All alien curculionoids have been introduced accidentally via international shipping. Wood and seed borers are specially liable to human-mediated dispersal due to their protected habitat. Alien curculionoids mainly attack stems, and half of them are xylophagous. The majority of alien curculionoids live in human-modified habitats, but many species live in forests and other natural or semi-natural habitats. Several species are pests, among which grain feeders as Sitophilus sp. are the most damaging.

Abstract (sommario):

Alien Census-Taking and Statistical Methods in Western Europe. With the exception of the UK, which ignores ‘alien’ as a statistical criterion, there are almost 12 500 000 aliens legally resident in Western Europe. Statistical analysis also reveals that (a) aliens constitute a non-negligible subpopulation in both host and source countries, and (b) individual nationalities are concentrated in different host countries. Detailed analysis requires a clear definition of the alien categories included and excluded for statistical purposes as well as the statistical techniques applied. Another serious issue is that the term ‘alien’ is becoming unworkable and will have to be re-defined or replaced.

Abstract (sommario):

Abstract The search for extraterrestrial (alien) life is one of the greatest scientific quests, yet it raises fundamental questions about just what we should be looking for and how. We approach alien hunting from the perspective of an experimenter engaging in binary classification with some true- and confounding-positive probabilities (TPP and CPP). We derive the Bayes factor in such a framework between two competing hypotheses, which we use to classify experiments as either impotent, imperfect, or ideal. Similarly, the experimenter can be classified as dogmatic, biased, or agnostic. We show how the unbounded explanatory and evasion capability of aliens poses fundamental problems to experiments directly seeking aliens. Instead, we advocate framing the experiments as looking for that outside of known processes, which means the hypotheses we test do not directly concern aliens per se. To connect back to aliens requires a second level of model selection, for which we derive the final odds ratio in a Bayesian framework. This reveals that it is fundamentally impossible to ever establish alien life at some threshold odds ratio,  crit , unless we deem the prior probability that some as-yet-undiscovered natural process could explain the event is less than ( 1 +  crit ) − 1 . This elucidates how alien hunters need to carefully consider the challenging problem of how probable unknown unknowns are, such as new physics or chemistry, and how it is arguably most fruitful to focus on experiments for which our domain knowledge is thought to be asymptotically complete.

Abstract (sommario):

More than 65% (1040 species) of arthropod species alien to Europe are associated with human-made habitats, especially parks and gardens, human settlements and agricultural lands, whereas woodlands are yet colonized by less than 20% of the alien fauna, which still has a negligible representation in the other natural and semi-natural habitats. Large differences in habitat affinity are observed between alien taxonomic groups. Phytophagous species are predominant among aliens, representing 47.2% of species alien to Europe.

Abstract (sommario):

This study aims to investigate, for the first time, the multiple diversity harbored in plant communities dominated by P. australis, discriminating between lentic and lotic habitats. We focused on the incidence of alien species on taxonomical, phylogenetic and functional diversity. Although it was hypothesized that ecological differences between habitats (lentic vs. lotic) could lead to plant adaptive trade-offs, results showed that the P. australis dominance affected overall plant diversity in the same way in both target habitats. Similarly, the two compared habitats hosted a similar alien species richness and relative abundance. Different results were observed based on whether the alien species richness or their relative abundance were considered regarding the incidence of alien species. Increasing alien species richness in lentic habitats resulted in increased taxonomic, phylogenetic and functional diversity. Instead, in lotic habitats, it promoted a decrease in taxonomic and functional diversity. In contrast, the increase in the relative abundance of alien species resulted in increased taxonomic, phylogenetic and functional diversity in both habitats. Choosing relative abundance vs richness of aliens in lotic stands can have a different impact in evaluating the effect of aliens on various components of diversity.

Abstract (sommario):

The first inventory of casual and naturalised alien plants of Kyrgyzstan is based on an overview of published data, which were re-assessed and re-evaluated using modern standards. Altogether, 151 alien species were registered in the country, of which nearly 40% became naturalised. The total number of alien plant species and the proportion of casual aliens are relatively low due to the harsh climatic conditions (high aridity and continentality) and predominantly high elevations. The highest number of alien plant species in Kyrgyzstan originated from the Mediterranean, which can be explained by some common climatic features between this area and Central Asia, but half of the ten most harmful aliens originated from the Americas. The intensity of plant invasions was the greatest during the period of the Russian Empire and the USSR, and this rapid accumulation of alien plants continues in independent Kyrgyzstan. The uneven distribution of alien plants in Kyrgyzstan is explained by different elevations and climatic conditions across its regions, as well as by the concentration of agricultural activities and human population along warm lowland depressions. More research is required to uncover pathways and particular times of introduction and to produce detailed distribution maps.

Abstract (sommario):

Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 2010. Cataloged from PDF version of thesis. Includes bibliographical references (p. 25-26). I argue that the necessity of emancipating the Situationist International (SI) from the historical notion of it as the last movement of the avant-garde in order to take over the spirit of the SI. I claim that necessity of strategically announcing the concept of the Post- Situationist in order to interrupt existing perceptions of the SI. I propose "play" as a major direction in revitalizing the aesthetic sensibility of dehumanized citizens who live in the "spectacle", as defined as the Situationists, of capitalist society. I also propose to reinvent humanized daily life based on studying French philosopher Jacques Ranciere's aesthetical politics and Marxist theorist Guy Debord's theories on spectacle. Simultaneously, I investigate "critical play" as my central tactic in reconnecting social neurons among atomized citizens to re-energize human creativity, a core agent in progressing social development. Lastly, I demonstrate one of my research projects performed over the last two years in the program in Art, Culture, and Technology. In terms of critical play, I am seeking the potentiality of Post Situationist strategies. by Jaekyung Jung. S.M.

Abstract (sommario):

The introduction of species outside of their native ranges has been extensively studied in ecology. Particular attention has been paid to examining interactions between alien and native plants, and a large proportion of this attention has focused on pollinator-mediated interactions. In order to interact through pollinators, plants must co-occur, coflower, and share pollinators; studies investigating pollinator-mediated interactions between alien and native plants frequently make fundamental assumptions about the definition of these prerequisites to pollinator-mediated interaction. The present analysis examines assumptions about plant co-occurrence and the effects that these assumptions have on study outcomes. In Chapter 2, I present the results of a meta-analysis of 76 studies which overturns previous findings that pollinator-mediated interactions between plants can be predicted on the basis of whether the neighbour is an alien, phylogenetic distance, or floral trait similarity. Moreover, I demonstrate that the spatial definition of the control group (i.e. the distance between the group of focal plants that ‘do not co-occur’ with the alien/alternate neighbour species and the nearest individuals of that neighbour species), and the spatial arrangements of plants within their treatment groups (i.e. the relative placement of the group of focal plants that ‘co-occurr’ with the neighbour species), both have a significant impact on the outcome of pollinator-mediated interactions between alien and native plants. I also emphasize evidence of bias in the selection of study systems and in the process of publication. In Chapter 3, I present the results of a field experiment testing the role of distance between interacting plants in determining patterns of visitation by insects. The results of this analysis are suggestive of visitor functional group-dependent effects but limited by low power. In both Chapter 2 and Chapter 3, I show that heretofore unexamined assumptions about definitions of co-occurrence of plants may be introducing bias into studies of pollinator-mediated interactions between plants, and that facilitation and competition between plants for visitation may be linked across different spatial scales.

Abstract (sommario):

Ancient Alien Protectors is an exhibition that tells the story of the wonders and benefits of horseshoe crabs. What are they and why should anyone care about them? Researching the topic revealed that more often than not an inhabitant of the Western Shore or any of the landlocked geographical locations in the United States has limited knowledge about horseshoe crabs. Their kind has inhabited our Earth for over 475 million years. They have outlasted over ninety-nine percent of all the species that ever swam or walked on the planet but are now in peril due to human activity. They have been harvested for farmers to make fertilizer for crops, chopped up as bait for fishermen, and captured and bled by biomedical companies. Their copper-based blue blood is used to produce a life-saving product that is hypersensitive to bacteria. The injectable drugs and medical devices that come in contact with our blood must be tested for the presence of toxins, horseshoe crabs have now become an invaluable commodity to modern medicine. Horseshoe crab eggs are a food source for many crustaceans and fishes. Their eggs are an integral part of the diet of many shorebirds, allowing them to refuel and gain weight before continuing their journey northward to the Arctic. Disappearance of the horseshoe crab from the waters of the Atlantic Ocean would be a critical blow to the life-sustaining connection between members of local ecosystems. The goal of this research is to create an exhibition that sparks an awareness about how we are an intrinsic part of the natural world. The exhibition is designed so that visitors will have an opportunity to enter a museum located in the Delaware Bay region, the natural setting where the largest population of horseshoe crabs are born, grow to maturity, and reproduce. Visitors can immerse themselves in an environment that will stimulate their senses as well as their mind and leave inspired to engage in the conservation and protection of this resilient species. The proposed site will also house a research facility collocated with the museum to foster cooperation and knowledge sharing among scientists. A partnership between the conservation and medical communities would strengthen the commitment to finding better ways to strategically manage and preserve this precious living resource.

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis will examine seven plays by David Hare, which together constitute a social history of Britain since the Second World War. Hare's main project is to demonstrate to the members of his audience, most of whom will be "middle class", that they are psychologically damaged by the capitalist-patriarchal system. The ideological fictions which have evolved to justify the existing structure of society and to discourage the oppressed from challenging that structure create psychological contradictions which cannot be resolved without radical social change. The middle classes are suffering from alienation no less than the oppressed, even though they may not be aware of it, and the loss of their privileged economic and political positions would be a small price to pay for the greater happiness which would accompany the removal of these contradictions. The history plays are therefore an attempt to create a counter-hegemony, by undermining established myths about the nature of contemporary British society. Chapter 1 provides brief accounts of British political theatre since the 1960s and the origins of Western Marxism. It also introduces the Marxist concepts of alienation, ideology and hegemony (in particular, the theories of Antonio Gramsci and Herbert Marcuse), relating them to the oppression of women as well as the oppression of classes. Chapters 2-8 examine the plays separately in the light of these concepts, with different emphases determined by the content of the plays. Specific issues which are examined in these chapters include the loss of individuality in contemporary capitalism, and the stultifying effects of certain current myths - about the transcendent power of romantic love, the liberating force of the sexual act, the social revolution which took place during World War Two and the alleged benevolence and contentment of the 1950s. Chapter 9 provides some brief comments on political theatre in general, and realist political theatre in particular, and considers how far the intentions of the playwright may be sabotaged by theatrical conventions and the preconceptions of the audience.

Abstract (sommario):

Language is a central concern of science fiction. From first contact to interstellar warfare, stories about aliens inevitably raise questions of communication. But how do we conceive of alien languages within the constraints of human language? And what do depictions of alien languages reveal about our own language use? Several studies have established the significance and magnitude of the theme of language in (predominantly twentieth century western) science fiction. Building on these studies, I combine macro-analysis with close reading to argue that these alien languages fall on a spectrum of alterity. Within this spectrum, I organise these languages into three distinct gradations of alterity: they help to define their speakers as alien people, creatures or inscrutable beings. The languages of alien 'people’ are structurally similar to our own, and explore the socio-political relationship between language and culture. Those of ‘creatures’ are radically, physically unlike human languages and explore the boundary between humans, animals and aliens. Finally, the languages of ‘beings’ are incomprehensible and prone to spiritualisation. They bring to light the aspects of experience we deem beyond language. This typology provides a framework through which to explore the major themes and questions regarding language, humanity and alterity in science fiction. By presenting these categories in increasing degrees of alterity, I aim to demonstrate that language, like the figure of the alien, is a fundamentally anthropocentric concept. Each category identifies different facets of our language use that simultaneously alienate and define us.

Abstract (sommario):

This partly satirical essay imagines a networking-style seminar for aliens and humans in the not-too-distant future. Three kinds of “aliens speak to their human audience: one, a hybrid between human and “little gray,” a type well known from narratives of alien abduction; a benevolent “Nordic” alien, a type popular in mid-twentieth century space lore; and finally a “reptilian,” the sinister alien type prevalent in much uncanny conspiracy theory. Listening to these alien speakers’ ideas on how to live with aliens reminds us, finally, that we must first live in more intentional ways with each other, and care for our own vulnerable Earth.

Abstract (sommario):

Global food security is increasingly threatened by numerous challenges, including widespread malnutrition. Nutritional deficiency, particularly in essential micronutrients such as Zinc (Zn) and Iron (Fe), affects over three billion people worldwide, with pregnant women and children being the most vulnerable. Wheat, as principal cereal crop, provides more than 50% of daily caloric for many populations, contributing essential nutrients such as proteins, vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals. Wheat’s adaptability to diverse growing conditions and its wide production and consumption make it the most important staple crop globally, and a strong candidate for addressing nutritional deficiencies. However, enhancement of wheat’s quality traits is constrained by the limited genetic diversity within modern cultivars. In contrast, wild relatives and ancient cereals harbor significant genetic variation that can be exploited for crop improvement. Identifying, characterizing, and deploying key genetic loci for quality traits, facilitated by modern breeding tools such as marker-assisted selection (MAS),—offer pathways for the enhancement of both functional and nutritional qualities in wheat. This review examines the current understanding and advancements in wheat quality improvement, with an emphasis on ancient cereals and alien germplasms, and highlights the role of advanced breeding methodologies for optimizing the nutrition, sensory, and end-use qualities of wheat across different growing environments.

Abstract (sommario):

This report provides a comprehensive historic context for the enemy alien internment compound and prisoner-of-war (POW) compound at Fort McCoy, Wisconsin, during World War II (WWII). Through primary and secondary sources, it illustrates the development of the internment and POW program at the installation, the built environment, labor details, and aspects of daily life. Although buildings associated with the internment and POW compound are no longer extant, researchers georeferenced historic maps of the compound to create digital footprints of the demolished infrastructure. Additionally, researchers generated and analyzed lidar returns to accentuate the signatures of former building foundations. Together, these processes can help fieldwork investigators determine the approximate locations of former internment and POW infrastructure.

Abstract (sommario):

Each year, significant global wheat yield loss occurs due to diseases that affect yield quantity or quality. Breeding for resistance has been the best economic and environmentally safe approach to control wheat diseases, however many disease resistance (R) genes succumbed to the pathogens and are no longer effective. Hence, new sources of resistance are necessary to boost the wheat gene pool. The main source for such genes are species of wheat wild relatives in the secondary gene pool that contain an unexploited reservoir of novel R genes. Sharon goatgrass (Aegilops sharonensis Eig) is a wild diploid relative of wheat (genome SshS sh). It is native to the coastal plain of Israel, growing mostly on stabilized dunes, and is highly resistant to rust pathogens. Previously, we introgressed a leaf and stripe rust resistance locus from Ae. sharonensis into bread wheat using chromosome engineering (Millet et al., 2014). We mapped the alien region to the short arm of chromosome six using genotyping by sequencing, identified SNPs, and used them to generate diagnostic markers (Khazan et al., 2020).
