Using specific morphological characters, some nematodes were identified as belonging to the genus Laimaphelenchus and one of the isolates being identified as L. heidelbergi. This research aimed to characterize the Portuguese L. heidelbergi isolate using morphobiometrical and molecular analyses and to analyze its phylogenetic relationship to other Laimaphelenchus spp. Morphometric and morphological characteristics of L. heidelbergi females and males were similar to the original description. For molecular analyses, the mitochondrial DNA region from the cytochrome oxidase subunit I and the D2/D3 expansion segments of the large subunit of rDNA were amplified and sequenced. In phylogenetic analyses, sequences of the Portuguese L. heidelbergi isolate clustered with sequences from the Australian isolate. Laimaphelenchus heidelbergi was originally described from wood of Pinus radiata growing in Australia and is here reported for the first time in Europe and Portugal. Cork oak is a new host record for L. heidelbergi.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></research-notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Carvalho-Ribeiro, Sónia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ramos, Isabel Loupa</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Madeira, Luís</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Barroso, Filipe</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Menezes, Helena</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pinto Correia, Teresa</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Is land cover an important asset for addressing the subjective landscape dimensions?</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Land Use Policy</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Alentejo</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cultural landscapes</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Indicators</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Landscape identity</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Portugal</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Social representations</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0264837713000781</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">35</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">50 - 60</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">This paper explores which physical landscape components relate to subjective landscape dimensions. The ways in which people describe their surrounding cultural landscape was analyzed through an assess- ment of their representations of it. A special focus was placed on assessing the role of land cover as a means to communicate landscape meanings regarding a specific geographical region. The methodological framework was built on the basis of a questionnaire survey, multivariate statistical analysis and map- ping approaches. This research shows that there is a set of physical landscape components that relate to subjective landscape dimensions which can be disclosed through the assessment of social representa- tions. Enhancing and safeguarding those physical landscape components associated with the subjective landscape dimensions are important aspects in both framing and targeting land cover/use policies and decision making. Results also suggest that land cover can be understood as an important asset for describ- ing landscapes as more than 30% of respondents referred to it when asked to represent the case study region of Alentejo in southern Portugal. This might mean that in addition to objective ecological and bio- logical functions, land cover is also an important asset for evaluating subjective landscape dimensions in line with place attachment and landscape identity. Finally, the ways in which the empirical material gathered here can be used to inform policy and planning are explored.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Elsevier Ltd</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fragoso, Rui</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lucas, Raquel</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Avaliação da competitividade da agricultura do Alentejo no âmbito do ecossistema montado</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Revista de Economia e Sociologia Rural</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Alentejo</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">common agricultural policy</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">competitiveness</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Policy Analysis Matrix</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">“Montado”</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">47</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9 - 26</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">0103-2003 UL - http://www.scielo.br/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&amp;pid=S0103-20032009000100001&amp;nrm=iso</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">This paper makes a socio-economic evaluation of the “Montado” ecosystem in Alentejo.

Statistical interaction terms between farmer type and landscape factors such as remoteness, soil quality, slope and aspect, were tested for signiﬁcance in describing the observed occurrence of three land use changes: afforestation of arable land, abandonment of arable land, and restoration of the traditional Montado system. Results showed that each farmer type uses different criteria for selecting land for a certain land use change. For example, absentee farmers abandon the most remote areas while other farmer types do not use remoteness as a criterion for abandonment; active farmers select the most accessible ﬁelds for afforestation while other farmer types do not; absentee farmers select their best soils for restoration of the traditional Montado system, while active farmers tend to select poor soils.
