Abstract:
The Asian subterranean termite, Coptotermes gestroi , originally from northeast India through Burma, Thailand, Malaysia, and the Indonesian archipelago, is a major termite pest introduced in several countries around the world, including Brazil. We sequenced the mitochondrial COII gene from individuals representing 23 populations. Phylogenetic analysis of COII gene sequences from this and other studies resulted in two main groups: (1) populations of Cleveland (USA) and four populations of Malaysia and (2) populations of Brazil, four populations of Malaysia, and one population from each of Thail

The polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based DNA amplification fingerprinting (DAF) approach was used to investigate genetic relationships among 30 U.S. sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas L. Lam.) genotypes including heirloom cultivars and recent releases. Phenogram, pairwise similarity matrix, and principal coordinate plots were developed based on Jaccard's coefficients using band-sharing data generated by seven octamer primers. All cultivars showed unique fingerprint patterns indicating the utility of DAF in cultivar identification. Many heirloom cultivars such as `Creole' and `Porto Rico' were readi

Resistance screening was conducted using 150-cm3 Conetainers containing 3 sand: 1 soil mix. Nematode infection and reproduction were assessed as the number of egg masses produced by root-knot nematodes per root system. Host suitability for the root-knot nematode populations differed among the 27 sweetpotato genotypes

Abstract:
The Iron Age of Mainland Southeast Asia began in the fifth centurybcand lasted for about a millennium. In coastal regions, the development of trade along the Maritime Silk Road led to the growth of port cities. In the interior, a fall in monsoon rains particularly affected the Mun River valley. This coincided with the construction of moats/reservoirs round Iron Age settlements from which water was channelled into wet rice fields, the production of iron ploughshares and sickles, population growth, burgeoning exchange and increased conflict.

The already large slave population of Minas Gerais increased dramatically from 168,543 in 1819 to 381,893 in 1872. Minas Gerais consisted of an intricate mercantile system based on slave labour that not only supplied foreign markets with hides, tobacco, and the products of a revived mining and incipient coffee sector, but also satisfied the domestic demand of Minas

Abstract:
In 1831, Rufino’s young master, an army cadet, took him to the province of Rio Grande do Sul, where he was sold to a merchant from the capital city of Porto Alegre. When his new master went bankrupt, Rufino was auctioned and bought by the police chief of the province. He worked as a cook at home and probably as a hire-out worker in the streets as well. Rio Grande received scores of slaves imported from Bahia and Rio de Janeiro. By 1819, 30 percent of Porto Alegre’s population were slaves. As the city grew, daily conflicts between slaves and the police and maroon activity became a major problem.

Abstract:
Rufino is living in Porto Alegre when the the Farroupilha federalist revolt begins in 1835. Porto Alegre was a town much like other Brazilian cities such as Rio de Janeiro, Salvador and Recife, where slaves made up a large part of the urban population. Manumission rates were also high in Porto Alegre. Most of the manumission letters were bought by the slaves themselves. Mina slaves were not the majority of the slave population, as in Salvador, but they were a significant minority. In 1838, Mina slaves would lead a Muslim slave conspiracy in Pelotas, Rio Grande, where documents in Arabic were found. But Rufino was not there any more, for he had bought his freedom in 1835, when cattle ranchers started the Farroupilha rebellion against the Imperial government. Many slaves seized the oppportunity to escape into the bush or cross the border to Uruguay. That same year, Rufino buys his manumission from the police chief, and somewhat later he moves to Rio de Janeiro.

This essay considers the Port of Bremerhaven and the relationship between trade, the port, and town development from the pre-industrial period through to the second half of the nineteenth century. It explores the population shift in relation to industrialisation and shipping; a history of the construction of german river-based towns in the nineteenth century; trade with American merchants - train oil, cotton, tobacco, and rice; and a detailed history of the construction of the port of Bremerhaven. It concludes by asserting that the intended use of Bremerhaven was solely as an outport for Bremen, but that political, social, and economic circumstances allowed it to develop outside these parameters. It also states that post-war, Bremerhaven has struggled economically, even with the advent of container shipping.

Located in West Africa, Ivory Coast covers an area of 322,462 square kilometres (km) and has a population of about 23 million. It borders Burkina Faso, Ghana, Guinea, Liberia, and Mali. Its capital city is Yamoussoukro, but the economic capital and largest city is the port city of Abidjan. As a former French colony, its official language is French. Its currency is the CFA franc (CFA). Following a decade of political turmoil and incidents of civil unrest and violent conflict, business has been booming in this West African country in recent years. Ivory Coast is the largest economy in the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WEAMU). It is the world’s top exporter of cocoa and raw cashew nuts, an offshore oil producer, and has a significant manufacturing sector. Its GDP in 2016 amounted to US$36.37 billion, making it the fourteenth largest economy in Africa. The three main imports are crude petroleum, rice, and refined petroleum. Goods imported outside of the Economic Community of West African States cannot be imported by land and can only go through Customs at Abidjan or San-Pédro after being brought in either by air or by sea.

"allies and the military) had not only large landholdings, but also direct control over strategic elements of the 'circuit of agrarian capital' such as agroindustry, processing facilities, foreign trade, manufacturing and all the banks. The monopolistic control not only excluded direct participation by foreign firms but also reduced the rest of the bourgeoisie to a subordinate position. Above all, the monopoly in banking (which provided virtually all the working capital for export agriculture in the form of annual loans backed by pre-export credits from foreign banks, preserving classical monetary stability) [FitzGerald, 1985c] gave the Somoza group indirect control over commercial farmers, directing their production decisions and siphoning off much of the investible surplus. In a country with a high cultivable land to population ratio (two hectares per head) and a social structure which guaranteed labour availability, the scarce resource was credit, especially in export agriculture which requires considerable working capital for inputs and the harvest wagefund. Agroex-ports in 1976 used 47 per cent of the cultivated area but received 75 per cent of the credit; most of the rest went to the two modernised foodgrains, rice and sorghum [IFAD, 1981], As we shall see, this inherited model has had a profound effect upon the particular form of 'mixed economy' in agriculture that has been adopted in this transitional stage. The resulting land tenure pattern is indicated in Table 1. In 1978, the large (over 500 mz) units included 36 per cent of the farmed area, of which about one-half was the property of the Somoza group. This was con-centrated predominantly in agroexport production of sugar, cotton, coffee and cattle. The medium and small farmers (50-500 mz) included some 46 per cent of the land, using a lower technology and with a balance of food and export crops. The peasantry proper had only 18 per cent of the land, predominantly in foodcrops, much of this of a subsistence nature. The data." In The Agrarian Question in Socialist Transitions.
