Impact of Seed Priming Technologies on the Agronomical Characteristics of <i>Lathyrus sativus</i> L. Commercial and Local Variety Under Normal and Saline Conditions
No full textOne of the main abiotic factors affecting agricultural productivity in semi-arid regions is salinity. Seed priming is a frequently used method to enhance plant growth under saline environments. The aim of this work was to demonstrate the differences in eight agronomical characteristics of two grass pea varieties under two salinity regimes (80 and 160 mM NaCl) when pre-exposed to seed priming (hydropriming, biopriming with Bacillus subtilis and their combination). The two varieties responded well to the priming treatments, with more beneficial effects monitored for the local variety. Evaluating the root characteristics that are most affected by stress, it was found that, at 80 mM NaCl, the combination of biopriming and hydropriming increased the fresh root weight by 36.8% and root length by 70% in the commercial variety, and by 124% and 47%, in the local variety, respectively. At 160 mM NaCl, biopriming increased the fresh root weight by 40.3% and root length by 50.3% in the commercial variety, while in the local variety, the combination of biopriming and hydropriming increased the fresh root weight by 124% and root length by 47%, respectively. Overall, biopriming and the combination of biopriming and hydropriming significantly enhanced plant growth characteristics of the two grass pea genotypes

Cultural landscape preservation in United States national parks: analysis and recommendations for U.S. cultural landscapes eligible for nomination to UNESCO
No full textScholars and officials generally define cultural landscapes as “combined works of nature and man. ” The National Park Service (NPS), established in 1916, is the United States’ governing organization on the preservation and protection of cultural landscapes, and manages all U.S. National Parks. The United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) is another major association that also provides protection to cultural landscapes on a global scale. While several U.S. National Parks are identified as “Natural Sites” on the World Heritage List, these sites are eligible for re-designation as “Cultural Landscapes”. The purpose of this thesis is to explore and compare the definitions and criteria for nomination of cultural landscapes according to UNESCO and the NPS. I will evaluate five U.S. National Parks, Yellowstone, Grand Canyon, Glacier Bay, Yosemite and Hawaii Volcanoes, in terms of the specific characteristics, preservation, visitation, and infrastructure of the potential cultural landscapes. General Management Plans pertaining to each park will be analyzed, and the current preservation strategies designed by the NPS and implemented by each park will be discussed. In addition I will consider the benefits of World Heritage Listing. This thesis will conclude with a set of recommendations focusing on steps these parks can take to further protect their cultural landscapes under UNESCO.M.A.Includes bibliographical referencesIncludes vitaby Eleni M.

‘Shaky’ times for arbitration clauses: rethinking business common sense
No full textEnglish courts have held that clear words of incorporation of the arbitration clause (contained in the charterparty) are indispensable in the bill of lading, to bind consignees who had never witnessed the charterparty. This approach is for the protection of consignees as third parties. In this article, attention will be paid to the identification of problems relating to the form that a charterparty should have to be appropriate for incorporation. Whether charterparties can be superseded by other types of documents will also be examined. Last but not least, the author will critically assess the rules of construction followed in recent cases where ambiguous language has been used in incorporation clauses in bills of lading. In the last few months, three judgments have been issued which have produced highly controversial outcomes. The author asserts that the method of construction should not be considered as a distinct method from that of incorporation of clauses. Times have changed and, apparently, so has business common sense. However, ‘uncertain certainty’ has been caused because business common sense has been applied differently to judgments that have been issued with a couple of months difference
