Testing Taylor's Power Law association of maize interplant variation with mean grain yield
No full textPlant-to-plant variability is a crop stability component. The objective of this study in maize (Zea mays L.) was to test the validity of the theoretical background of the hypothesis that the coefficient of variation (CV) for grain yield per plant and mean yield are connected exponentially, following the Taylor's Power Law (TPL) Model. Field experimentation was conducted across two sites, two seasons, and two planting densities. Densities were the main plots, corresponding to the typical practice of 8.89 plants m–2 (TCD) and the low-input optimal of 5.33 plants m–2 (LCD), while hybrids were the subplots. Data from 26 subplots in the first site averaged CV values of 22.6% at the TCD and 21.9% at the LCD, and mean yields of 19.1 and 13.9 t ha–1, respectively, following the TPL Model. The same was true for the second site, with average CVs and means of 41.5% and 14.3 t ha–1 at the TCD and 36.8% and 11.5 t ha–1 at the LCD. A test was performed on the simple correlation between the logarithms of variances and their respective means to investigate whether there is a systematic variance dependence on mean, thus questioning the reliability of TPL. The validity of TPL was verified in the first site. Nevertheless, there was a systematic dependence of yield variance on mean yield in the second site, implying that the CV-yield correlation might be not biologically meaningful. Conversion of the variance to remove its dependence on the mean did not validate the CV-yield negative relationship, meaning that caution is needed when interpreting the CV as a stability index for intra-crop variation. Whether the determinant factor of invalidity of TPL was the extensive intra-crop variation in the lower yielding second site can be assessed in future research
Sakis Gekas. Xenocracy: state, class and colonialism in the Ionian Islands, 1815–1864
No full textŞenışık, Pınar (Dogus Author)British colonialism in the Mediterranean during the nineteenth century has long attracted attention from historians. Sakis Gekas’s Xenocracy: State, Class and Colonialism in the Ionian Islands, 1815–1864, is primarily concerned with the history of the Ionian State under British colonial rule. The book offers a comprehensive account of the complex sociopolitical and economic aspects of British colonialism in the islands. The Ionian Islands were occupied during the Napoleonic wars and then became part of the British Empire as a protectorate state in 1815. Historians of British colonialism and of the late Ottoman Empire have often used Foucauldian terminology, such as governmentality, surveillance, and discipline, to construct their theoretical frameworks
The political economy of hedge fund regulation
No full textThe currency crises and episodes of market unrest of the 1990s sparked a series of regulatory initiatives to reform the Global Financial Architecture. One of these initiatives tackled the activities of hedge funds, a type of investment vehicle that was frequently cited as one of the causes of these crises. The key research question of this thesis is why efforts to regulate an apparently destabilising aspect of financial markets failed, despite the setting up of an ad hoc forum at the international level (the Financial Stability Forum) and various domestic initiatives in the US, the country where most hedge funds operate.
The thesis develops a theoretical framework that examines this regulatory inaction through three explanatory models. The first model draws upon mainstream economic accounts and argues that the empirical evidence did not justify more interventionist public regulation of hedge funds. The second model assumes that a form of relational power has been exercised at the regulatory table: those actors with an interest in leaving hedge funds unregulated prevailed over those that favoured a more mandatory approach. The third model argues that it was not just relational power that determined outcomes, but mainly the power of the structure of meaning within which discussions took place and problems were framed. This structure of meaning led to a particular formulation of the problem at stake, which excluded other concerns and actors from the regulatory agenda.
Each model is analysed for its policy implications. The first model leads to regulatory solutions that rely upon private actors' due diligence and self-assessment of risk. The second model leads to policy options that favour a greater inclusion of developing countries and other stakeholder groups in decision-making processes in global finance. The third model leads to a rethinking of the very tenets of financial market regulation and of the financial theories used to explain and govern the market. The thesis argues that the third model is better able to grasp the complexity of power beyond the seemingly technical nature of financial regulation. For this reason, it is deemed more suitable to provide policy solutions that challenge the current neo-liberal framework of regulation
Plant Yield Efficiency by Homeostasis as Selection Tool at Ultra-Low Density. A Comparative Study with Common Stability Measures in Maize
No full textThe study pertains to field experimentation testing seven maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids at four densities, across five locations under normal (NIR) and low-input (LIR) regimes. The main objective was to assess the prognostic value of plant yield efficiency by homeostasis (PYEH) for breeding purposes at ultra-low plant density to predict hybrid yield potential and stability. PYEH comprises plant yield efficiency (PYE) that reflects the ability of individual plants to exploit resources, and plant yield homeostasis (PYH) that indicates the crop’s ability to evade acquired plant-to-plant variability. The same hybrids were also evaluated for stability by commonly used parametric and non-parametric statistics based on data at low (LCD) and high crop densities (HCD). Hybrid stability focused on potential yield loss due to erratic optimum density (OD). Most methods produced conflicting results regarding hybrid ranking for yield and stability especially at LCD. In contrast, PYEH consistently highlighted high-yielding and stable hybrids, potentially able to reach the attainable crop yield (ACY) inter-seasonally irrespective of crop spacing. Low density is common practice under resource-deficit conditions, so crop adaptation to crop spacing is a viable option to overcome erratic OD that constitutes a root source of crop instability in rainfed maize. The results were further supportive of breeding at ultra-low density to facilitate the identification and selection of superior genotypes, since such conditions promote phenotypic expression and differentiation, and ensure repeatability across diverse environments
Evaluation of physiological characteristics as selection criteria for drought tolerance in maize inbred lines and their hybrids
No full textImprovement for maize drought tolerance has always been a significantobjective for breeders and plant physiologists. Nowadays, climate change sets new challenges to major crop adaptation at stressful environments. For such a purpose, the measurement of physiological traits related to maize response to drought might prove to be useful indices. The objective of the present study was to establish whether the physiological traits can be used as reliable physiological markers to evaluate the performance of parental genotypes and their hybrids under both dry and normally watered conditions, and under two densities an ultra-low density (ULD) and a normal dense stand (DS). Thirty (30) maize inbred lines and 30 single-crosses among them were evaluated across three diverse locations in Greece. The ULD was 0.74 plants/m-2, while the DS comprised 4.44 plants m-2 in the water deficitregime, and 6.67 and 7.84 plants m-2 in the normal water treatment for lines and hybrids, respectively. There was a very good association between the physiological characteristics studied and grain yield under the ultra-low density and especially for inbred lines. It was shown that the physiological characteristics can facilitate the selection of stress-adaptive genotypes under the low-density conditions and may permit modern maize to be grown at a wider range of environments. At the normal densities such a possibility was not evidenced since physiological parameters and yield did not correlate for either parents or hybrid

Τμήμα Κοινωνιολογίας, ΠΜΣ, κατεύθυνση Κοινωνικός Αποκλεισμός και Μειονότητες, 2013Βιβλιογραφία: σ. 71-73Το παρόν πόνημα αποτελεί μια προσπάθεια διερεύνησης των σχέσεων ανάμεσα σε Κρητικούς και Τούρκους ,ξεκινώντας από την περίοδο οριστικής κατάληψης του νησιού από τους τελευταίους, το έτος 1669 (κατάληψη του Χάνδακα, το σημερινό Ηράκλειο) μέχρι το 1770, όπου στα πλαίσια των «ορλωφικών» λαμβάνει χώρα η επανάσταση του Δασκαλογιάννη. Αφορμή γι’ αυτή την εργασία στάθηκε το βιβλίο της αμερικανίδας συγγραφέως Molly Green, «Κρήτη, ένας κοινός κόσμος: Χριστιανοί και Μουσουλμάνοι στη Μεσόγειο των Πρώιμων Νεότερων Χρόνων», στο οποίο αντικείμενο επεξεργασίας αποτελούν τα γεγονότα που διαδραματίστηκαν, από το τέλος του 16ου αιώνα (τις τελευταίες 10ετίες της ενετικής παρουσίας στο νησί) μέχρι τις αρχές του 18ου αιώνα (το 1715, έτος κατά το οποίο εξαλείφονται τα τελευταία διοικητικά «απομεινάρια» της Βενετικής παρουσίας.). Κύριος στόχος της συγγραφέως είναι να προκαλέσει στους αναγνώστες προβληματισμό, για, το κατά πόσον η Οθωμανική παρουσία στην Κρήτη ήταν μια αφόρητα καταπιεστική κατάσταση ή απλώς περιγράφηκε, ως τέτοια από τους «εθνικούς ιστοριογράφους». Η άποψη της Green, σύμφωνα και με την επιμελήτρια της ελληνικής έκδοσης, Ελένη Γκαρά, είναι ότι, κατά την εξεταζόμενη περίοδο, υπάρχουν 4 εξελίξεις που παίζουν καθοριστικό ρόλο στην κοινωνία της Κρήτης: α) ο ευρύτατος εξισλαμισμός, β) η ανασύσταση της ορθόδοξης εκκλησιαστικής ιεραρχίας, γ) η δημιουργία του αξιώματος του γραμματικού της Πόρτας και δ) οι συνεχιζόμενες βλέψεις της Βενετίας στο νησί.1 Οι εξελίξεις αυτές, που είναι πραγματικές εντάσσονται στο πλαίσιο σύγκρισης ανάμεσα στις συνθήκες που επικρατούσαν επί Ενετοκρατίας και επί Οθωμανικής αυτοκρατορίας. Η άποψή της είναι ότι σε πολλές περιπτώσεις οι Ενετοί ήταν πιο βίαιοι από τους Οθωμανούς, καθώς οι πρώτοι δεν επέδειξαν παρόμοια ανοχή με τους δεύτερους. Η θέση ότι, λόγω των Οθωμανών, διακόπηκε και η λεγόμενη, «Κρητική Αναγέννηση» δεν είναι, κατά τη γνώμη της, απόλυτα σωστή, διότι από το 1645, που ξεκίνησε ο κρητικός πόλεμος, μέχρι το 1715, η Κρήτη δέχονταν ακόμη τις επιρροές της «Γαληνότατης Δημοκρατίας». Συνεπώς, υπονοείται ότι κατά κάποιο τρόπο οι χριστιανοί είχαν τη δυνατότητα να επιλέξουν ανάμεσα στις δύο δυνάμεις. Η οριστική κυριαρχία των Οθωμανών ήταν, εν μέρει, και επιλογή του χριστιανικού πληθυσμού του νησιού. Αυτό το γεγονός συνέβη, γιατί στην Κρήτη δεν είχε αποκρυσταλλωθεί η λεγόμενη «εθνική συνείδηση» , που υποστηρίζουν οι μετέπειτα «εθνικοί ιστοριογράφοι». Ήταν έτσι όμως; Ήταν τόσο ασταθής η «ταυτότητα» των Κρητών εκείνη την περίοδο; Συνεπώς, 1«Η Κρήτη από το 1645 ως το 1715 είναι ένας κόσμος εν κινήσει , όπου οι σχέσεις χριστιανών και μουσουλμάνων βρίσκονται σε συνεχή αναδιαπραγμάτευση, ενώ η πολιτική νομιμοφροσύνη και οι θρησκευτικές ταυτότητες είναι ρευστές» «Η μετάβαση της Κρήτης από τη βενετική στην οθωμανική κυριαρχία ήταν μια μακροχρόνια διαδικασία που περιέλαβε δύο μεγάλους πολέμους (1645-1669 και 1684-1699)» «Η παρατεταμένη περίοδος αναστάτωσης στην Κρήτη , η οποία κράτησε μέχρι το 1715 […] χαρακτηρίζονταν από την αστάθεια της θρησκευτικής ταυτότητας.» (Greene Molly, Κρήτη ένας κοινός κόσμος: χριστιανοί και μουσουλμάνοι στη Μεσόγειο των πρώιμων νεότερων χρόνων, -μετ: Ελ. Γκαρά – Θ. Γκέκου- Εκδόσεις 21ου αιώνα, 2005 σελ.33,34,46). διερευνώντας τις σχέσεις των Κρητικών με τους Οθωμανούς, τίθεται εκ των πραγμάτων ζήτημα, πώς θεωρούσαν τους εαυτούς τους οι πρώτοι, απέναντι στους δεύτερους και τανάπαλιν. Άρα και το ζήτημα της ταυτότητας είναι κάτι που θα μας απασχολήσει στο παρόν πόνημα.This essay is an attempt to investigate the relations between Cretans and Turks , starting from the final period of occupation of the island from the past , the year 1669 (conquest of Candia, Heraklio) until 1770, where under the "Orloff revolt' occurs revolution Daskaloyianni. The reason for this work was the book by the American writer Molly Green, «Crete, a shared world : Christians and Muslims in the Mediterranean during the Early Modern Period', in which are treated the events that took place from the end of the 16th century (the last 10 years of the Venetian presence on the island) until the early 18th century (in 1715, the year in which eliminated the last administration "remnants" of the Venetian rule.). The main aim of the author is to provoke readers reflection, for, whether the Ottoman presence in Crete was an unbearably oppressive situation or simply described as such by the "national historians". The view of the Green, in accordance with the curator of the Greek version, Eleni Gara, is that, during the reporting period, there are four developments that play a crucial role in society of Crete: a) the sweeping islamization, b) the restoration of the Orthodox church hierarchy, c) the creation of the post of Secretary of the Door and d) the continuing aspirations of Venice at nisi.1 these developments, which are real within the context of comparison between the conditions prevailing on Venetian and the Ottoman empire. The view is that in many cases the Venetians were more violent than the Ottomans, as the first did not show similar tolerance to the latter. The argument that, because the Ottomans, stopped and called, "Cretan Renaissance" is not, in its opinion, absolutely correct, because since 1645, started the Cretan war, until 1715, Crete accept even the influences of "Serene Republic". Therefore, suggests that somehow Christians were allowed to choose between the two forces. The final Ottoman rule was , in part, and selection of the Christian population of the island. This event happened because in Crete had not crystallized so-called "national consciousness", supporting the subsequent "national historian". It was so though? Was so unstable the "identity" of the Cretans that time ? Therefore 1 "Crete from 1645 until 1715 is a world in motion, where the relations between Christians and Muslims are in constant renegotiation , while the political loyalty and religious identities are fluid ," " The transition of Crete by the Venetian Ottoman rule was a long process that included two major wars (1645-1669 and 1684-1699) "" The prolonged period of turmoil in Crete, which lasted until 1715 [...] characterized by the instability of religious identity . »(Greene Molly, a Crete shared world : Christians and Muslims in the Mediterranean early modern era - round : El Gara - T. Gekas - 21st century Publishing, 2005 p.33, 34,46). exploring the relationships of the Cretans with the Ottomans, enter facto issue, how they considered themselves the first, towards the second and vice versa. So the question of identity is something that will occupy us in this ponima.ΠΜΣ Κοινωνιολογία, κατεύθυνση Κοινωνικός Αποκλεισμός και Μειονότητε
