Sommario/riassunto

Les courses hippiques ont eu dans le monde grec une importance considérable, non seulement dans les concours olympiques, mais dans beaucoup d’autres rencontres sportives de fréquentation locale, régionale ou panhellénique. Ce volume constitue le premier ouvrage exclusivement consacré à ces courses et aux hippodromes. Il rend compte des importants progrès faits ces dernières années dans l’analyse des représentations iconographiques et des textes littéraires ou épigraphiques ayant trait aux sports hippiques. Il contient de nouvelles restitutions d’hippodromes déjà connus, comme ceux d’Olympie et du Lykaion, et la présentation de pistes nouvellement identifiées, comme celles de Delphes ou d’Épidaure. Vingt-huit articles, issus d’un colloque international qui s’est tenu à Athènes en 2016, restituent dans toute leur ampleur et dans toute leur diversité la place et la forme des hippodromes et des courses hippiques dans l’architecture, les arts figurés, la poésie et l’histoire politique, économique, sociale et religieuse du monde grec. Horse racing held a significant role in the Greek world, not only in the Olympic competitions, but in many other



sporting events – local, regional or Panhellenic. This volume is the first study to exclusively investigate these races and hippodromes. This volume acknowledges the significant progress made in recent years in the analysis of iconographic representations and literary or epigraphic texts relating to hippic sports. It outlines new reproductions of already known racetracks, such as those of Olympia and the Lykaion, and presents newly identified tracks, such as those of Delphi or Epidaurus. Twenty-eight articles, coming out of an international conference held in Athens in 2016, reproduce in all their breadth and diversity, the place and the form of racetracks and horse racing in architecture, the figurative arts, poetry and the political, economic, social and religious history of the Greek world.

Sommario/riassunto

The parasitic lifestyle in plants has always been the subject of curiosity of scientists, but during the last decade, our understanding of parasitic plant–host interactions has greatly evolved due to rapid advances in molecular and genomic tools, especially high throughput DNA sequencing, transcriptomics, and metabolomics. Recent findings taken the science of parasitic plants to a higher level, opening up new horizons in parasitic weed management. The discovery of a novel family of phytohormones, the strigolactones, and their involvement in



the host detection and evolution of parasitic plants, the detection of information exchange between host and parasite, and elucidation of the suppression of host defense mechanisms by parasites has led to a deeper understanding of physiological processes in host–parasite interactions. In the light of recent achievements, the re-evaluation of control management, including smart chemical control, crop breeding, and molecular genetics, are on the agenda.
