In this book, the information encompasses various researchable biotechnology aspects of sugarcane, its genomic structure, diversity, comparative and structural genomics, data mining, etc. This book explores both the theoretical and practical aspects of sugarcane crops, focusing on innovative processes. This book argues in favor of developing an integrated research and development system to strengthen the research and development capabilities of all the areas of sugarcane. Further, it covers the recent trends of sugarcane biotechnology, especially in the next-generation sequencing (NGS) era. This book will be very useful for professors and scientists who are working in the area of sugarcane crops by using molecular biology and bioinformatics. It is also useful for students to use as a reference for their classes or thesis projects. Key features: • Discusses an integral part of molecular biology and pivotal tools for molecular breeding; enables breeders to design cost-effective and efficient breeding strategies for sugarcane • Discusses the harnessing genomics technologies for genetic engineering and pathogen characterization and diagnosis of sugarcane • Provides new examples and problems, added where needed • Provides insight from contributors drawn from around the globe

This comprehensive, critical examination of Africa’s future–written by a diverse group of Africans and Africanists–raises many questions and challenges concerning the development and unity of the African continent. Eclectic in range and method, but cohesive in concern, the book identifies and analyzes alternative probabilities in the political, economic, and social spheres and on the national, regional, and international levels. Many of the contributors point toward an unpromising future for Africa unless its development strategy is changed and its inheritance of dependence on the world system overcome.

Rice and potatoes are Afghanistan’s two most staple crops after wheat. Rice production is dependent on water from irrigation canals, with most of Afghanistan’s irrigation infrastructure in disrepair, farmers are vulnerable. Between 2016 and 2018, FAO in Afghanistan (FAOAF) and the Ministry of Agriculture, Irrigation and Livestock (MAIL) rehabilitated irrigation infrastructure and laid the foundations of a virus-free potato seed industry in three provinces (Kunduz, Baghlan and Takhar). The project enhanced food production and contributed to the Government’s agricultural development and food security objectives. The evaluation recommends that future irrigation rehabilitation includes training to demonstrate improved cropping practices to help farmers build their resilience to external shocks. Training of potato farmers and enterprises involved in the industry will help determine the sustainability of the industry beyond the end of the project.

The book shows, through in-depth case studies, how some low income countries have made enormous strides in overcoming problems of adult literacy, lack of schooling, high child mortality, rapid population growth, mass poverty and gender inequalities. With contributions from outstanding scholars, the book analyses the experiences with social development and public policy of Chile, China, Costa Rica, Cuba, Kerala, Sri Lanka and Vietnam. Using a holistic approach, it draws lessons and evaluates their relevance for other countries interested in emulating their achievements.
