Why human rights matter for marine conservation por Smallhorn-West, Patrick, Allison, Edward (Eddie), Gurney, Georgina, Karnad, Divya, Kretser, Heidi, Lobo, Aaron, Mangubhai, Sangeeta, Newing, Helen, Pennell, Kamille, Raj, Sushil, Tilley, Alexander, Williams, Haley, Peckham, Hoyt

“…Here, we i) provide an overview of human rights principles and how they relate to marine conservation, ii) document cases where tensions have occurred between marine conservation goals and human rights, iii) review the legal and ethical obligations, and practical benefits, for marine conservation to support human rights, and iv) provide practical guidance on integrating human rights principles into marine conservation. We argue that adopting a human rights-based approach to marine conservation, that is integrating equity as a rights-based condition rather than a charitable principle, will not only help meet legal and ethical obligations to respect, protect, and fulfil human rights, but will also result in greater and more enduring conservation impact.…”

Roles of public expenditures and public investments on the demand and productivity of agricultural inputs/services: Some insights from Nigeria por Takeshima, Hiroyuki, Edeh, Hyacinth O., Andam, Kwaw S.

“…There is often complementarity between these PI and PEA, particularly for extension services, investment in agricultural equipment, irrigation, and in the northern part of the country. Promoting further adoptions of modern inputs/services, increasing PEA-share, and selecting PI for agricultural R&D given in-country variations in agroclimatic conditions can help raise agricultural profitability and incomes in Nigeria.…”

Inheritance of Striga hermonthica adaptive traits in an earlymaturing white maize inbred line containing resistance genes from Zea diploperennis por Akaogu, I.C., Badu-Apraku, Baffour, Tongoona, P.B., Ceballos, H., Gracen, V., Offei, Samuel Kwame, Dzidzienyo, D.

“…Additive‐dominance model was adequate in describing observed variations in the number of emerged Striga plants among the population; hence, digenic epistatic model was adopted for Striga damage. Dominance effects were higher than the additive effects for the number of emerged Striga plants at both locations signifying that non‐additive gene action conditioned inheritance of Striga resistance. …”
