Phylogeny of the planthopper genus (Hemiptera, Delphacidae), with the description of two new species from South America.

is a genus of Delphacidae widely distributed and mostly associated with plants in freshwater environments. Despite various taxonomic revisions and thorough research, the delimitation of the genus, its diversity, and its evolutionary history need to be further explored. Moreover, features originally considered distinctive of the genus exhibit variation and should be reassessed.

How do women cope with couples' infertility? Using language to explore elaborative processes.

Aims/background: Infertility diagnosis and related treatment can cause profound psychological discomfort and a variety of psychopathological symptoms. This study aims at investigating Referential Process linguistic measures applied to autobiographical memories of women facing fertility issues, hypothesising to find different elaboration and symbolisation capabilities according to the specific memories expressed.

Design/methods: Forty-four women (mean age 36.

A high-throughput approach for quantifying turgor loss point in grapevine.

Quantifying drought tolerance in crops is critical for agriculture management under environmental change, and drought response traits in grape vine have long been the focus of viticultural research. Turgor loss point (π) is gaining attention as an indicator of drought tolerance in plants, though estimating π often requires the construction and analysis of pressure-volume (P-V) curves which are very time consuming. While P-V curves remain a valuable tool for assessing π and related traits, there is considerable interest in developing high-throughput methods for rapidly estimating π, especially in the context of crop screening.

Analyzing assisted reproductive treatment representations in Italy and Spain through newspapers.

With the increase in infertility cases recorded over the last 20 years, there is a considerable demand for assisted reproductive treatments (ART). However, there is significant variation in the availability of such treatments across different countries. Legislation on assisted reproduction is influenced by various cultural expressions, making it seemingly impossible to create a single representation adaptable to different contexts.
