Mongo Breeding in Taiwan
台灣芒果栽培品種,早期皆以引進國外優良品種推廣試種為主,並未進行育種工作。直至1969年起,農業試驗所鳳山分所開始進行自然雜交與實生選拔,高雄區農業改良場亦於1994年開始進行芒果之育種工作。育種目標為選育具早熟或晚熟、不時花、開花著果穩定、中型果、纖維少、果肉厚、不易生理劣變、抗(耐)病及貯運等特性之品種。育種方法多以自然雜交授粉,再從單胚型品種之後裔進行實生選拔。育種程序包括雜交後裔的培育、品系選拔、品系比較試驗、區域試種、植株性狀檢定及品種權申請等。實生品系選拔以進行果實品質分析為初選項目,優選品系除了調查果實性狀之外,並進一步評估產量、耐病性及地方適應性等。目前鳳山分所已於1985年培育出’台農1號’及’台農2號‘等2個種;高雄場亦於2008年育成’高雄3號夏雪‘。
The mongo cultivars in Taiwan were introduced excellent varieties from foreign countries and nobreeding program was conducted in early time. Fengshan Tropical Horticultural Experiment Branch began to carry out selections of open pollination and seeding until 1969. Kaohsiang District Aghcultural Research and Extension Station (Kaohsiang DARES) performed mongo breeding from 1994. The breeding objects were focus on early mature, Iate mature, off-season, stable blooming and frUitbear, middle focus size, less pulp fiber, high pulp rate, non-physiological disorder, disease resistance/tolerance and well storage ability. The breeding method was open pollenated then selected the progenies of mono-embryonic varieties. The breeding processes contain progenies cultivation, line selection, line comparetest, local test, DUS test and variety right application. The preliminary trait of seeding lines selection is focus on fruit quality. Fruit characteristics of selected Iines were the yield, diseases tolerance, and local adaption were evaluated. So far, Fengshan Tropical Horticultural Experiment Branch released 'Tainung No.l' and 'TainungNo. 2' in 1985. Kaohsiang DARES released 'Kaohsiang No.3' (Shia Sheue) in 2008

Dr. Aleksandra Sznajder Lee – Faculty Author Interview
Dr. Aleksandra Sznajder Lee, Associate Professor of Political Science, discusses her new book, Transnational Capitalism in East Central Europe’s Heavy Industry, published recently by the University of Michigan Press. Focusing on the steel industry during the post-communist transition from 1989 through 2009, Dr. Sznajder Lee traces the transformation of flagship state enterprises in the Czech Republic, Poland, Romania, and Slovakia into the subsidiaries of large, international corporations
Letter from K.W. Lee to Friends of Michi Weglyn, November 1, 1997
A letter from K. W. (Kyung Won) Lee, an investigative journalist who wrote for the Sacramento Union, to the Friends of Michi Weglyn. Lee wrote that Weglyn was instrumental in the campaign to free Chol Soo Lee, a Korean American man was on death row, but later had his convictions overturned. Lee also wrote that other Japanese American activists were instrumental to the success of this campaign.These materials are from box 73 and 74 of the Frank Chin Papers. The Frank Chin Papers contain personal and professional correspondence between Frank Chin and Michi Weglyn relating to particular projects on which either author was working as well as files related to the Day of Remembrance Tribute to Michi Weglyn

Surface and interface microstructural properties of Ru thin films grown on InSb (111) substrates at room temperature
Ru thin films were grown on p-InSb (111) substrates by the ion-beam-assisted deposition method with the goal of producing a new kind of Ru/InSb heterostructures with high-quality heterointerfaces. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements showed that the Ru films grown on InSb substrates at room temperature were polycrystalline thin layers with very smooth surfaces. Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and Rutherford backscattering measurements (RBS) showed that the composition of the as-grown film was Ru and that the Ru/InSb heterointerface had relatively sharp interfaces. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and selected area electron-diffraction measurements showed that the grown Ru film was a polycrystalline layer with small grain size. These results indicate that the Ru layer grown on p-InSb (111) can be used for stable contacts and metal electrodes with low resistivities in electronic devices such as metal-semiconductor field-effect-transistors and memory capacitor between electrodes based on InSb substrates.
