The Almond Tree Genome
This book brings together the latest information on almond genomics and transcriptomics, with a particular focus on cutting-edge findings, tools, and strategies employed in genome sequencing and analysis with regard to the most important agronomic traits. Cultivated almond [(Prunus dulcis (Miller) D. A. Webb, syn. Prunus amygdalus Batsch., Amygdalus communis L., Amygdalus dulcis Mill.)] is a tree crop producing seeds of great economic interest, and adapted to hot and dry climates. Domesticated in Southeast Asia, its small diploid genome and phenotypic diversity make it an ideal model to complement genomics studies on peach, generally considered to be the reference Prunus species. Both represent consanguineous species that evolved in two distinct environments: warmer and more humid in the case of peach, and colder and xerophytic for almond. The advent of affordable whole-genome sequencing, in combination with existing Prunus functional genomics data, has now made it possible to leverage the novel diversity found in almond, providing an unmatched resource for the genetic improvement of this species.
Almonds
This book provides a comprehensive overview of almond growing from a scientific and horticultural perspective, covering botany, production, processing and industrial uses. Almonds are an important crop; they are highly regarded for their flavour, nutritional properties and culinary uses, and almond oil is used widely in food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical production. They are easy to transport and have long storability, facilitating global dissemination. Demand is constantly increasing and global production has more than doubled in the last 20 years. Authored by an international team of experts and presented in full colour throughout, this book is an essential resource for academic researchers and extension workers, as well as growers, orchard managers and industry personnel.

Bioökonomie und Zirkulärwirtschaft im Bauwesen
Das Bauwesen sucht neue Wege. Ein intelligenterer Umgang mit Materialien wie Ziegeln, Stahl, Beton oder Holz ist notwendig. Techniken und Konzepte dafür gibt es. Aber die Umsetzung bleibt träge. Die Gründe dafür sind nicht allein technischer und ökonomischer Art. Auch die sozial- und kulturwissenschaftliche Perspektive auf Akteure, Institutionen und ökologische Krisenwahrnehmungen ist aufschlussreich.Wie lässt sich ein auf Ressourcenbewahrung und Klimaschutz ausgerichteter Bau verwirklichen? Welche Beiträge leisten Zertifizierungen, Ökobilanzierung und die Kommunikation? Was ist von innovativen Zementen oder Recycling-Baustoffen zu erwarten? Und von Nachwachsenden Rohstoffen wie Hol...
GOODBYE YAMAGUCHI
Good-bye Yamaguchi is a fast-moving story about an ambitious attempt by Japanese gangsters (yakuza) to seize control of all vice operations in cosmopolitan Miami, Florida, the gateway fro predators from Central and South America. Two ex-Secret Service agents, fired for their failure to prevent the assassination of a Black presidential candidate, reunite three years later to work as private investigators under a lucrative short-term contract for their boss. All government agencies are alarmed at the high murder rate and growing violence in Miami because of the drug trade and the security lapses on America’s southern border. A gang ninjas have been sent by a rouge Japanese crime syndicate to...
Borrowed Words
The book contends that the acceptance of translation and imitation in the literary life of a country does not imply denying the specific conditions created by political borders in the constitution of a national literature, that is, the existence of national borders framing literary life. What it does is recognize new and different frontiers that destabilize the national confines (as well as the nationalistic values) of literary history. In translation and imitation, borders are experienced not as the demarcation of otherness, but rather as crossroads in the quest for identity."--Jacket.
International Electronics Directory '90
International Electronics Directory '90, Third Edition: The Guide to European Manufacturers, Agents and Applications, Part 1 comprises a directory of various manufacturers in Europe and a directory of agents in Europe. This book contains a classified directory of electronic products and services where both manufacturers and agents are listed. This edition is organized into two sections. Section 1 provides details of manufacturers, including number of employees, production program, names of managers, as well as links with other companies. The entries are listed alphabetically on a country-by-country basis. Section 2 provides information concerning agents or representatives, including names of manufacturers represented, names of managers, number of employees, and range of products handled. A number of these companies are also active in manufacturing and so appear in both Section 1 and Section 2. This book is a valuable resource for private consumers.
