Training on seasonal forecasting using the IRI Climate Predictability Tool and Data Library by Siebert, Asher, Kagabo, Desire M., Vuguziga, Floribert

“…Further discussions addressed longer-term collaborative work on both climatology and further seasonal prediction work, particularly with regard to El Niño - Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD). Discussions with experts at International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT) and the Rwanda Agriculture Board (RAB) also focused on the newly developed water balance maprooms and the possibilities of updating these maprooms in the future.…”

Coconut palms on the edge of the desert: genetic diversity of Cocos nucifera L. in Oman by Perera, L., Baudouin, L., Bourdeix, Roland, Bait Fadhil, A., Hountondji, F.C.C., Al-Shanfri, A.

“…The importance of these coconuts is not only agricultural; historically, the Dhofar palms provided the basic materials to build boats for fishermen and traders on, around and eventually beyond the Indian Ocean. Coconut palms are now one of the main symbols of Salalah city and play a role in both the tourist industry and urban landscaping. …”

Genetic diversity of Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) colonizing sweet potato and cassava in South Sudan by Misaka, B.C., Wosula, Everlyne N., Marchelo-d’Ragga, P.W., Hvoslef-Eide, T., Legg, James P.

“…Six distinct genetic groups of B. tabaci were identified, including three non-cassava haplotypes (Mediterranean (MED), Indian Ocean (IO), and Uganda) and three cassava haplotypes (Sub-Saharan Africa 1 sub-group 1 (SSA1-SG1), SSA1-SG3, and SSA2). …”

Limiting factors for yields of field tomatoes grown by smallholders in tropical regions by Huat, J., Doré, T., Aubry, C.

“…To this end, we conducted an on-farm survey in 22 fields in 2003 and in 28 fields in 2005 in a range of socio-economic settings typical of smallholder farms on the island of Mayotte (Indian Ocean). Data on crop management, fulfilment of water requirements, weed density, nitrogen absorption by the crop and nutrient availability in the soil, as well as the sanitary status of the crop were recorded at two-week intervals throughout the crop cycle. …”

Integrating Y-Chromosome, Mitochondrial and autosomal data to analyse the origin of pig breeds by Ramírez, O., Ojeda, A., Tomas, A., Gallardo, D., Huang, L.S., Folch, J.M., Clop, A., Sánchez, A., Babaoui, B., Hanotte, Olivier H.

“…This region seems to have been a major point of entry of livestock species in the African continent as a result of the Indian Ocean trade. Finally, South American creole breeds had essentially a European ancestry although Asian Y-chromosome and mitochondrial haplotypes were found in a few Nicaraguan pigs. …”

Calibration and bias correction of climate projections for crop modelling: An idealised case study over Europe by Hawkins, E., Osborne, Tom M., Ho CK, Challinor, Andrew J.

“…Producing projections of future crop yields requires careful thought about the appropriate use of atmosphere-ocean global climate model (AOGCM) simulations. Here we describe and demonstrate multiple methods for ‘calibrating’ climate projections using an ensemble of AOGCM simulations in a ‘perfect sibling’ framework. …”

The effect of migratory fish on freshwater ecosystem nutrient dynamics by Enbom, Magnus

“…Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and sea trout (S. trutta) are iteroparous, meaning that adults may return to the ocean after spawning. Therefore it is less clear if these anadromous fish can significantly contribute to spatial translocation of nutrients from the Baltic Sea to the freshwater rivers. …”

Distribution and molecular diversity of whitefly species colonizing cassava in Kenya by Munguti, F., Kilalo, D., Nyaboga, E., Wosula, E.N., Macharia, I., Mwango'mbe, A.

African swine fever: how can global spread be prevented? by Costard, Solenne, Wieland, Barbara, Glanville, William A. de, Jori, F., Rowlands, R., Vosloo, W., Roger, F., Pfeiffer, Dirk U., Dixon, L.K.

“…ASF has continued to spread within Africa to previously uninfected countries, including recently the Indian Ocean islands of Madagascar and Mauritius. Given the continued occurrence of ASF in sub-Saharan Africa and increasing global movements of people and products, it is not surprising that further transcontinental transmission has occurred. …”
