Rodríguez. 330 $aResearch on Economic Inequality, Volume 19, Inequality of Opportunity contains eight papers, both theoretical and applied, on the concept of equality of opportunity which says that a society should guarantee its members equal access to advantage regardless of their circumstances, while holding them responsible for turning that access into actual advantage by the application of effort. Theoretical papers discuss to what extent some of the measures of inequality of opportunity meet the reward and the compensation principles, a new methodology for evaluating long-term income distributions according to the equality of opportunity principle, the implications of partial observability of individuals circumstances on the measurement of inequality of opportunity and the advantages of applying segregation indices to study inequality in life chances when the variable is ordinal. The applied work includes studies that investigate how governments affect inequality of opportunity through the design of their tax and transfer schemes in 15 European countries, the changing role of circumstances for measuring inequality of opportunity in Chile, the existence of a poverty trap in Haiti and its consequences for equality of opportunity, and the importance of the correlation between circumstances and effort in the measurement of inequality of opportunity in U.S. during the period 1969-2007. 410 0$aResearch on economic inequality ;$vv. 19. 606 $aIncome distribution 606 $aEconomics 606 $aBusiness & Economics$xEconomics$xComparative$2bisacsh 606 $aBusiness & Economics$xEconomics$xTheory$2bisacsh 606 $aLabour economics$2bicssc 606 $aBehavioural economics$2bicssc 615 0$aIncome distribution. 615 0$aEconomics. 615 7$aBusiness & Economics$xEconomics$xComparative. 615 7$aBusiness & Economics$xEconomics$xTheory. 615 7$aLabour economics. 615 7$aBehavioural economics. 676 $a305.5690973 676 $a331 701 $aRodríguez$b Juan Gabriel$01187052 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789889003321 996 $aInequality of opportunity$93868635 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05497nam 22006735 450 001 9910298263303321 005 20260212152717.0 010 $a3-319-22521-9 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-319-22521-0 035 $a(CKB)3710000000588161 035 $a(EBL)4388659 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001634380 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)16386719 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001634380 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)14950479 035 $a(PQKB)11596541 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-319-22521-0 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4388659 035 $a(PPN)192218050 035 $a(iGPub)SPNA0043105 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000588161 100 $a20160202d2015 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aAdvances in Plant Breeding Strategies: Breeding, Biotechnology and Molecular Tools /$fedited by Jameel M.

The basic concept of this book is to examine the use of innovative methods augmenting traditional plant breeding towards the development of new crop varieties under different environmental conditions to achieve sustainable food production. The book consists of two volumes. This is volume 1 which comprises 21 chapters separated into four parts: Part I, Genetic Resource Utilization and Conservation; Part II, Breeding Strategies; Part III, In Vitro Culture and Transgenic Approaches; and Part IV, Molecular Breeding. Topics covered include plant domestication and germplasm utilization, conventional breeding techniques and the role of biotechnology. In addition to various biotechnological applications in plant breeding, it includes functional genomics, mutations and methods of detection, and molecular markers. In vitro techniques and their applications in plant breeding are discussed with an emphasis on embryo rescue, somatic cell hybridization and somaclonal variation. Other chapters cover haploid breeding, transgenics, cryogenics and bioinformatics. The book is a valuable resource for students, researchers, scientists, commercial producers and seed companies as well as consultants and policymakers interested in agriculture, particularly in modern breeding technologies. . 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aPlant biotechnology 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aPlant Biotechnology 606 $aMillorament selectiu de plantes$2thub 606 $aBiotecnologia vegetal$2thub 606 $aAgricultura$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aAgriculture. 615 0$aPlant biotechnology. 615 14$aAgriculture. 615 24$aPlant Biotechnology. 615 7$aMillorament selectiu de plantes 615 7$aBiotecnologia vegetal 615 7$aAgricultura 676 $a570 702 $aAl-Khayri$b Jameel M.$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aJain$b S.
