Identifying and managing plant health risks for key African crops: legumes HISTORY / Modern / 17th Century

Identifying and managing plant health risks for key African crops: legumes HISTORY / Modern / 17th CenturyThe yield potential of cowpea and soybean is severely constrained by several biotic stresses, negatively impacting on the livelihoods of farming communities. Resistant germplasm is often the first line of defence against plant pathogens inducing foliar diseases like Asian soybean rust, but needs to be accompanied by proper resistance management plans, including understanding and monitoring of pathotype formation. This chapter shows how combatting soil

social work & social welfare

transplanting

the work of all three artist-scholars raises important issues about memory

cropping systems and cultures

Designed as much for general readers and travellers interested in ancient Greece as for scholars

Evidence also shows that urban and peri-urban agriculture provide one means to meet many of these objectives

and stress response and regulation

Chapters also consider the environmental impact of their use and the tools used to optimise their efficiency

This book explores the archaeological data

Here we discuss the potential for X-ray computed micro-tomography (X-ray µCT) as a tool to characterize key parameters of soil pore architecture

and post-harvest stages such as mechanical and thermal processing as well as storage

based on the Jungian concept of the night journey
