Diener and Joshua Hagen.Focusing on unusual international border shapes, this fascinating book highlights the important truth that all borders, even those that appear ""natural,"" were created by people. The unique and compelling histories of some of the world's oddest borders provide an ideal context for accessible and enlightening discussions of cultural globalization, economic integration, international migration, imperialism, postcolonialism, global terrorism, nationalism, and supranationalism.

The number of papers on the subject is so large that it is becoming difficult to have a complete overview of the state-of-the-art with reference to specific crops. In the absence of readily available documents providing circumstantial information on the endophytic assemblage of plants, the isolation of a certain fungal species may appear to be occasional or trivial; hence, many important findings are at risk of going unnoticed. This Special Issue aims to present a collection of papers dealing with the occurrence and functions of endophytic fungi in crop species. It may represent a useful tool for stakeholders in this particular research field, with a view to stimulating a more thorough consideration of the opportunities deriving from their discoveries.Research & information: generalbicsscendophytic fungiFusariumspecies complexesmycotoxinsfusaric acidtrichothecenesbiosynthetic gene clustersCitrus spp.endophytesantagonismdefensive mutualismplant growth promotionbioactive compoundsentomopathogenscrop protectionintegrated pest managementCordycipitaceaeAlternariaIllumina MiSeqsecondary raw materialscompositaefungiherbssecondary metabolitessymbiosismutualismplant fitnesslatent pathogensBotryosphaeria rhodinaBotryodiplodia theobromaeonionsamaryllisendosphereendobiomemetabolomesagebioprospectingmedicinal plantsLamiaceaebiocontrolbiostimulantsinduced systemic resistanceISRplant pathogensfungal entomopathogensAcaciaAlbiziaBauhiniaBerberisCaesalpiniaCassiaCornusHamamelisJasminusLigustrumLoniceraNeriumRobiniaEFSAhigh-risk plantsResearch & information: generalNicoletti Rosarioedt317547Nicoletti RosarioothBOOK9910557613803321Occurrence and Functions of Endophytic Fungi in Crop Species3027451UNINA05047nam 22008535 450 991079690390332120181111112103.01-349-47964-01-137-34848-810.1057/9781137348487(CKB)3710000000374101(EBL)1913544(SSID)ssj0001617819(PQKBManifestationID)16348206(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001617819(PQKBWorkID)14920599(PQKB)10010073(SSID)ssj0001405663(PQKBManifestationID)12629290(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001405663(PQKBWorkID)11392478(PQKB)10483564(MiAaPQ)EBC1913544(DE-He213)978-1-137-34848-7(EXLCZ)99371000000037410120151222d2014 u| 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrInfrastructure and Poverty in Sub-Saharan Africa[electronic resource] /by Antonio Estache, Quentin WodonFirst edition.New York :Palgrave Macmillan US :Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan,2014.1 online resource (213 p.)Description based upon print version of record.1-322-57734-X 1-137-38149-3 Includes bibliographical references and index.Cover; Title; Copyright; Contents; List of Tables; Preface; Acknowledgments; List of Acronyms; CHAPTER 1 Introduction; PART I Infrastructure, Growth, and the MDGs; CHAPTER 2 Infrastructure, Growth, and Country Strategies; CHAPTER 3 Infrastructure and the MDGs; CHAPTER 4 Africa's Infrastructure Investment Needs; Main Messages of Part I; PART II Are Household Needs Being Met?; CHAPTER 5 Where Do We Stand on Service Coverage for Households?; CHAPTER 6 How Big a Problem Is Access for the Poor?; CHAPTER 7 Are Infrastructure Services Affordable for All Users?CHAPTER 8 Are Quality and Production Costs a Problem?Main Messages of Part II; PART III What Did Past Reforms Achieve and What's Next?; CHAPTER 9 Markets, Institutions, and Reforms; CHAPTER 10 Reforming Prices and Subsidies in the Interest of the Poor; CHAPTER 11 Toward an African Infrastructure Strategy to Meet the Needs of the Poor; Main Messages of Part III; Notes; References; IndexInfrastructure and Poverty in Sub-Saharan Africa analyzes the extent to which, how, and how fast the infrastructure needs of the poor have been met in Sub-Saharan Africa. Estache and Wodon explore the extent to which some key policies have hurt or helped progress in trying to speed the expansions of coverage so clearly needed in the region. They focus on electricity, water, sanitation, and other services at the core of the day-to-day needs of the population, examining the extent to which reforms of the last 15-20 years have managed to reduce the infrastructure gap. They anchor their analysis on the evidence available about the macroeconomic importance of infrastructure for the region, the policies that have been adopted to accelerate coverage, and a detailed assessment of the poverty dimensions of infrastructure.Development economicsEconomic policyEconomic theoryMacroeconomicsPolitical economyPovertyDevelopment Economicshttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/W42000Economic Policyhttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/W34010Economic Theory/Quantitative Economics/Mathematical Methodshttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/W29000Macroeconomics/Monetary Economics//Financial Economicshttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/W32000International Political Economyhttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/912140Development Aidhttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/913040Africa, Sub-SaharanEconomic conditions21st centuryDevelopment economics.Economic policy.Economic theory.Macroeconomics.Political economy.Poverty.Development Economics.Economic Policy.Economic Theory/Quantitative Economics/Mathematical Methods.Macroeconomics/Monetary Economics//Financial Economics.International Political Economy.Development Aid.363.0967Estache Antonioauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1505822Wodon Quentinauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910796903903321Infrastructure and Poverty in Sub-Saharan Africa3735706UNINA
