Leibing, CZonneveld, M. vanJarvis, AndyDvorak, W.[Adaptation of tropical and subtropical pine plantation forestry to climate change: Realignment of Pinus patula and Pinus tecucumanii genotypes to 2020 planting site climates]Adaptation of tropical and subtropical pine plantation forestry to climate change: Realignment of Pinus patula and Pinus tecucumanii genotypes to 2020 planting site climates

Genotype by environment interaction (G x E) is a major problem in the study of quantitative traits as it complicates the interpretation of genotypes evaluation experiments and makes predications of performance difficult. In order to disentangle the genetic and GxE effects and get meaningful inter...

L'interaction entre génotype et environnement est un problème majeur dans l' étude des caractères quantitatifs puisqu'il complique l'interprétation de l'évaluation des génotypes et rend difficile la prediction de la performance du rendement. En vue de séparer la génétique des effects de l'interac...

The Kuri is a rare, little known breed of cattle of the Hamitic Longhorn (Bos taurus longifrons) type which is found on the islands and shores of Lake Chad Basin in the area covering the common borders of Cameroon, Chad, Niger and Nigeria. It is taller and more massive than its longhorn counterpa...

East African pastoral adaptation and vulnerability to climate variability and climate change is assessed, using data from decision making processes and ecological data of the Maasai of Ngorongoro Conservation Area as an example. The paper uses integrated modeling, linking PHEWS, a household mode...

We employ a single-country dynamically-recursive Computable General Equilibrium model to make health-focussed macroeconomic assessments of three contingent UK Greenhouse Gas (GHG) mitigation strategies, designed to achieve 2030 emission targets as suggested by the UK Committee on Climate Change. ...

Climate change is projected to intensify drought and heat stress in groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) crop in rainfed regions. This will require developing high yielding groundnut cultivars that are both drought and heat tolerant. The crop growth simulation model for groundnut (CROPGRO-Groundnut mo...

Climate change can severely impact artisanal fisheries and affect the role they play in food security. We study climate change effects on the triple bottom line of ecological productivity, fishers’ incomes, and fish consumption for an artisanal open-access fishery. We develop and apply an empiric...

Ensuring the availability of the broadest possible germplasm base for agriculture in the face of increasingly uncertain and variable patterns of biotic and abiotic change is fundamental for the world's future food supply. While ex situ conservation plays a major role in the conservation and avail...
