Challenges and prospects for the conservation of crop genetic resources in field genebanks, in In Vitro collections and/or in liquid nitrogen por Panis, Bartholomeus, Nagel, Manuela, Houwe, Ines van den

“…However, this is not an option for crops and species that produce recalcitrant (non-storable) seeds such as cacao, coffee and avocado, for crops that do not produce seeds at all; therefore, they are inevitably vegetatively propagated such as bananas, or crops that are predominantly clonally propagated as their seeds are not true to type, such as potato, cassava and many fruit trees. …”

The importance of animal welfare and veterinary services in a changing world por Doyle, Rebecca, Wieland, Barbara, Saville, K., Grace, Delia, Campbell, A.J.D.

Rehabilitation and renovation of cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) agroforestry systems. A review por Somarriba, E., Peguero, F., Cerda, R., Orozco Aguilar, L.A., López Sampson, A., Leandro-Muñoz, M.E., Jagoret, P., Sinclair, Fergus L.

“…In this review, we (1) explore the diversity of contexts, driving forces, stakeholders and recommended management practices involved in Rh/Re initiatives in key cocoa-producing countries; (2) summarise the often conflicting views of farmers and extension agents on Rh/Re programmes; (3) review the evidence of age-related changes in planting density and yield of cocoa, given the weight of these variables in Rh/Re decision processes; (4) describe the best known Rh/Re systems and their most common management practices; (5) propose an agroforestry Re approach that overcomes the limitation of current Rh/Re diagnosis protocols, which do not consider the regular flow of food crop and tree products, and the need to restore site soil quality to sustain another cycle of cultivation of cocoa at the same site; and (6) explore the effects of climate change considerations on Rh/Re decision-making and implementation processes.…”

Does relative deprivation condition the effects of social protection programs on political support? Experimental evidence from Pakistan por Kosec, Katrina, Mo, Cecilia Hyunjung

“…Leveraging a regression discontinuity approach using BISP's administrative data and an original survey experiment, we find that perceptions of relative deprivation color citizen reactions to social protection. When citizens do not feel relatively deprived, receiving cash transfers has little sustained effect on individuals’ reported level of support for their political system and its leaders. …”
