Genomic signatures of domestication and adaptation during geographical expansions of rice cultivation
Publicado 2022“…After domestication, the expansions of rice landraces into the present-day range required a diverse array of adaptations to local environments, which included changes in daylight sensitivity, expanded thermal tolerance (for excess cold and heat), adaptations to water availability (drought and waterlogging), and resistance to biotic stresses (Garris et al., 2005; Glaszmann, 1987). …”

Seed Bundle Training Report: Soybean Seed Production and Agribusiness Management Training in Kaoma & Kalumwange, Western Province, Zambia
Publicado 2024“…In partnership with the National Smallholder Farmers Association of Zambia (NASFA), the Seed Bundle initiative of AICCRA has trained 609 youth (51% female youth) in soybean seed production and agribusiness management. This exceeds the initial target of 200 youth. The training spanned across nine (9) districts of Zambia: Lusaka, Chongwe, Chisamba, Chibombo, Monze, Chikankata, Kapiri Mposhi, Mkushi, and Kaoma. …”

Rainfall shocks push people away from the poverty line, making them poorer: Evidence from urban Ecuador
Publicado 2025“…By applying fixed effects models, we find that rainfall shocks, including excess and lack of rain, significantly worsen socioeconomic conditions, pushing poor urban households further down into poverty. …”

Microsequence heterogeneity and expression of LSU rRNA genes within the two single copy ribosomal transcription units of Theileria parva
Publicado 2000“…Both units were expressed in the intra-lymphocytic schizont stage of T. parva. A. 2-5-10 fold excess of rRNA derived from LSU unit, compared with unit 2 was observed in the schizont stage, the difference being attributable to variation in the level of expression of unit 2. …”

Zai improves nutrient and water productivity in the Ethiopian highlands
Publicado 2011“…The main objective of this study was to determine whether zai pits (i.e. small water harvesting pits) developed for dryland regions of the Sahel could increase crop yield and water productivity of degraded outfields in high rainfall areas, where mean annual rainfall exceeds 1300mmbut soil water infiltration is reduced by slope, low soil organic matter and hardpans. …”

Woody and non-woody biomass utilisation for fuel and implications on plant nutrients availability in the mukehantuta watershed in Ethiopia
Publicado 2013“…The existing wood biomass in the watershed was approximately 292 metric tonnes, implying that consumption exceeds potential supply. As a result of using dung and crop residue biomass for household energy, the watershed, respectively, loses 17.3, 4.3, 20.6, 15.6, 5.4, and 10.2 tonnes of N, P, K, Ca, Mg and Fe nutrients every year. …”

Private farmers' compensation and viability of protected areas: The case of Nairobi National Park and Kitengela dispersal corridor
Publicado 2012“…The results suggest that the aggregated financial support of urban residents might represent around $1.2 million per year for 5 years. This amount exceeds the economic losses caused by wildlife in the dispersal area, and different financial schemes of fund investment and the prioritisation of conservation regions could be implemented to ensure payments and keep the dispersal corridors open in perpetuity.…”

Solar irrigation pumps: can electricity buy-back curb groundwater over-use?
Publicado 2015“…As solar irrigation pumps become more effective and affordable, the prospect of uncontrolled solar pumping further exacerbating the unsustainable use of groundwater has led to calls by some for the government to buy back excess electricity generated on farms. Under such a scheme, the buy-back price would have to be high enough to make selling the power more profitable than using it for further irrigation, yet not as high as the price that is charged for electricity from the grid lest an opportunity for arbitrage be created. …”
