Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Universally recognised as by far the most authoritative work ever published on the subject, The Birds of Africa is a superb multi-contributor reference work, with encyclopaedic species texts, stunning paintings of all species and numerous subspecies, hundreds of informative line drawings, detailed range maps, and extensive bibliographies. Each volume contains an Introduction that brings the reader up to date with the latest developments in African ornithology, including the evolution and biogeography of African birds. Diagnoses of the families and genera, often with superspecies maps, are followed by the comprehensive species accounts themselves. These include descriptions of range and status, field characters, voice, general habits, food, and breeding habits. Full bibliographies, acoustic references, and indexes complete this scholarly work of reference. This fourth volume in the series deals comprehensively with broadbills, pittas, larks, swallows and martins, wagtails, pipits and longclaws, cuckoo-shrikes, bulbuls, waxwings, dippers, wrens, accentors, and chats. The editors and artists have worked closely with other authors - all acknowledged experts in their field - to produce a superb reference in which comprehensive texts on every species are complemented by accurate and detailed paintings and drawings of the birds themselves.

Download or read book Biological and Taxonomic Investigations on the Mutillid Wasps written by Clarence Eugene Mickel and published by . This book was released on 1928 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As an outgrowth of earlier work done on the genital structures of male Mutillid wasps, the author's conviction that the biology of insects is as much a factor in their taxonomy and phylogeny as morphology led him to assemble all the knowledge regarding their biology and to carry on some minor researches that were included in Part 1 of this bulletin. He reviewed 630 references, listed in the bibliography and undertook a study of the genotypes of the family, reporting the results in Part 2. This bulletin provides descriptions of multiple specimens examined.
Download or read book Accelerated Plant Breeding Volume 4 written by Satbir Singh Gosal and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-03 with total page 549 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plant improvement has shifted its focus from yield, quality and disease resistance to factors that will enhance commercial export, such as early maturity, shelf life and better processing quality. Conventional plant breeding methods aiming at the improvement of a self-pollinating crop usually take 10-12 years to develop and release of the new variety. During the past 10 years, significant advances have been made and accelerated methods have been developed for precision breeding and early release of crop varieties. This book focuses on the accelerated breeding technologies that have been adopted for major oil crops. It summarizes concepts dealing with germplasm enhancement and development of improved varieties based on innovative methodologies that include doubled haploidy, marker assisted selection, marker assisted background selection, genetic mapping, genomic selection, high-throughput genotyping, high-throughput phenotyping, mutation breeding, reverse breeding, transgenic breeding, shuttle breeding, speed breeding, low cost high-throughput field phenotyping, etc. This edited volume is therefore an excellent reference on accelerated development of improved crop varieties.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Monticola, Vol. 25 James Sansome Lakin, President of the State Board of Control, which has charge of the financial and business affairs of the West Virginia University was born at Moundsville, W. Va., the son of the Rev. Calvin H. and Catherine Finney Lakin. He is a direct descendant of Abraham Lakin, (born 1713, died 1796), who received from King George of England title deeds tor a tract of land in Frederick County, Maryland, which has passed from father to son through many generations and is still in the Lakin name, being now the homestead of William Gerry Lakin. James S. received his education in Fairmont State Normal School, at Fairmont, W. Va., and Ohio Wesleyan University, at Delaware, Ohio. While attending the last named institution he met a young lady student named Lura Olivia Lakin, daughter of George W. Lakin of Columbus, Ohio who became his wife on November 14, 1889. To them three children have been born, James Offut, Marion Elizabeth and Florence Catherine. For a number of years Mr. Lakin was engaged in the mercantile and timber business with headquarters at Terra Alta, W. Va. He was president of the First National Bank of Terra Alta and a Director of the Terra Alta Bank. His interest and activity in politics and public affairs have been of the most ardent nature. He was for several terms a member of the Republican Executive Committee of Preston County. In 1912 he was Chairman of the Republican State Committee, and in 1920 he was elected a delegate to the Republican National Convention at Chicago and represented West Virginia there as a member of the "Big Four" Delegation. In 1900 he was appointed by Governor Albert B. White as a Director of the West Virginia Asylum at Huntington, W. Va., and was reappointed in 1904 by Governor W. M. O. Dawson. In 1905 he was a candidate on the Republican Ticket for Congress in the 2nd Congressional District of West Virginia, to succeed Hon. A. G. Dayton who had been appointed to a Federal Judgeship, but was defeated by a very narrow margin by Col. Thomas B. Davis of Keyser, W. Va. His service as a member of the Board of Directors of the West Virginia Asylum and his other business qualifications led Governor W. E. Glasscock to appoint him in 1909 as one of the three members of the newly created State Board of Control, which was to have charge of the business and financial affairs of all State Educational Institutions and the complete control and management of all of West Virginia's Penal, Charitable and Correctional Institutions. He has been a member of that Board ever since, having been reappointed in July 1921 by Governor E. F. Morgan for his third consecutive term. When the Board first organized on July 1, 1909, he was elected President and has served in that executive capacity continuously excepting the four years of Governor John J. Cornwell's administration. In addition to these duties, he was appointed by Governor Cornwell as a member of the State Mental Hygiene Commission. Mr. Lakin is identified with the activities of the First M. E. Church of Charleston. He is a 32nd degree Scottish Rite Mason, a Knight Templar, a Noble of the Mystic Shrine, a member of Charleston Lodge B. P. O. Elks, and of the Knights of Pythias and the Edgewood Country Club. Immediately after the Spanish American War, Mr. Lakin was authorized along with Dr. Buckner Fairfax Scott by Governor George Wesley Atkinson to organize Company M. of the First West Virginia Infantry, National Guards.
