Article Synopsis
- Proline influences root meristem size by impacting the balance between cell division and differentiation, as well as modifying superoxide and hydrogen peroxide levels.
- Hydrogen peroxide significantly affects root elongation and shares similar influences with proline on root development.
- Proline metabolism's role in modulating root meristem size involves the enzyme ProDH, which is crucial for hydrogen peroxide production, while proline enhances the activity of antioxidant enzymes like catalase and ascorbate peroxidase to manage hydrogen peroxide levels.
Within a wider research line on policy-driven institutional discourses on migration by international/national institutions, NGO and political leaders, this contribution is aimed at illustrating the bipolarized social representations of immigrants inspiring 24 speeches by Pope Francis and US President Donald Trump. Statistical analyses using IRAMUTEQ included "specificity analysis" of discursive forms (words) and "cluster analysis." Results show that the Pope's discourse on migration (articulated into four clusters) is richer than the oversimplified Trump's discourse (originating just one cluster): the words "bridges" and "walls" emerge as representational nuclei of their bipolarized views of transnational migration, as metaphorical dichotomies of inclusive/exclusive policies.
