Global whole-genome comparison and analysis to classify subpopulations and identify resistance genes in weedy rice relevant for improving crops by Han, Zhenyun, Li, Fei, Qiao, Weihua, Zheng, Xiaoming, Cheng, Yunlian, Zhang, Lifang, Huang, Jingfen, Wang, Yanyan, Lou, Danjing, Xing, Meng, Fan, Weiya, Nie, Yamin, Guo, Wenlong, Wang, Shizhuang, Liu, Ziran, Yang, Qingwen

“…Common weedy rice plants are important genetic resources for modern breeding programs because they are the closest relatives to rice cultivars and their genomes contain elite genes. Determining the utility and copy numbers of WRKY and nucleotide-binding site (NBS) resistance-related genes may help to clarify their variation patterns and lead to crop improvements. …”

Gender equality and social inclusion in community-led multiple use water services in Nepal by van Koppen, Barbara, Raut, Manita, Rajouria, Alok, Khadka, Manohara, Pradhan, P., GC, Raj K., Colavito, L., O’Hara, C., Rautanen, S.-L., Nepal, P. R., Shrestha, P. K.

“…Challenges to achieving this goal in rural areas include: low functionality of water systems; expansion of informal self supply for multiple uses; widespread de facto productive uses of water systems designed for domestic uses; growing competition for finite water resources; and male elite capture in polycentric decision-making. This paper traces how the Nepali government and nongovernmental organizations in the water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH), irrigation and other sectors have joined forces since the early 2000s to address these challenges by innovating community-led multiple use water services (MUS). …”
