Abstract

The Italian seed bank network (RIBES) aims to improve the quality and safety of the germplasm reserves of native plant species in Italy to ensure the long-term conservation of endangered and/or endemic flora. The strategy includes traditional methods to secure seed conservation. A comprehensive priority list for seed collection is being defined, it was prepared by crossing data of various checklists (red lists, endemics) and will soon be cross-referenced with an updated list of accessions of the whole network. A safety-backup program of duplicates will quickly be implemented to secure the conservation of the most threatened species in at least two seed banks of the network. On the other hand, the RIBES strategy also includes research by applying modern techniques. In collaboration with the Millennium Seed Bank, research on the storage behaviour of seeds and spores through thermal analysis is ongoing to inform conservation. Using the Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), we could evaluate seed lipid properties such as glass transition temperature, melting, crystallization, oxidation behaviour, and thermal stability. Finally, RIBES participates as a co-funder in the LIFE Nature project SEEDFORCE, coordinating 11 seed banks of the network for collecting seeds/spores of 29 threatened species of EU interest.

Abstract

The authors present the updated results of such census in the Italian Seed Bank Network for native species conservation (RIBES) with an analysis of the contribution to the conservation of the Italian FAO priority CWR. Finally, a national priority list for conservation of CWRs was drawn up and proposed here.

Abstract

Data of 620 crop wild relatives of species of food and fodder interest listed in the Annex I of the FAO Treaty (FAO, 2001) were collected within the census carried out by ISPRA, the Italian National Institute for Environmental Protection and Research, in 2014-2015 in order to quantify the extent of CWR representation in the Italian ex situ collections. According to such census, the RIBES network preserve 37% of the Italian CWRs listed in the FAO Treaty: in 14 out of 16 seed-banks are preserved 6,029 accessions of 229 CWR taxa, belonging to 11 families and 57 genera.

44. MANOEUVRES - An Effort Towards Quieter, Reliable Rotorcraft Terminal Procedures

Abstract

The MANOEUVRES project concerns an innovative approach geared towards quieter rotorcraft manoeuvres, especially during terminal flight phases. Emitted noise strongly depends on the actual helicopter rotor dynamics, which is typically unsteady in terminal manoeuvres and difficult to estimate in real time. Therefore, a major topic in the project concerns the design, development and testing of a novel in-flight measurement system for rotor blade flapping. This system will be able to provide reliable rotor state information to feed an algorithm that, together with other data retrieved from the helicopter avionics, will enable the run-time estimation of the emitted noise. The noise estimation will exploit an acoustic data prediction process resulting from a dedicated study, which includes the analysis of unsteadiness effects and of trajectiory perturbations. Computed noise will then be synthesized into a suitable noise index, to be displayed onboard via a dedicated human-machine interface, in order to provide useful information to the pilot for flying low noise procedures with improved awareness and effectiveness.
