This book covers the biotechnology of all the major perennial fruit
and nut species. Since the publication of the first edition of this
book in 2005, there has been significant progress in cell culture,
genomics and genetic transformation for many of these species. This
book covers these biotechnologies and also traditional ones, such
as regeneration pathways, protoplast culture, in vitro mutagenesis,
and ploidy manipulation that have been applied to many of these
species. Three species, Diospyros kaki (persimmon), Punica granatum
(pomegranate) and Eriobotrya japonica (loquat) are included for the
first time, and several Prunus species now receive separate
coverage. The species are organized by plant family to facilitate
comparisons among related ones. Each species is discussed in
relation to its family and its related wild forms, and most are
accompanied by full colour illustrations. This book is a vital
resource for those working on the improvement of perennial fruit,
nut and plantation crops. The book features: Detailed coverage of
major perennial fruit and crop species. Coverage of traditional and
new biotechnologies. Full colour illustrations to aid
identification This book is an essential resource for scientists
and postgraduate students who are engaged in the improvement of
perennial fruit, nut and plantation crops and will also be an
important accession for university and agricultural research
libraries.
This book shows how the Brazilian new unionism has changed the system of labor relations and assertion of workers' citizenship. By analyzing the current state of labor relations in Brazil and the role of the new unionism on the superseding of the corporate institutions inherited from the 1930s, it provides useful information and insights into Brazilian industrial relations and perspectives for change. Finally, by applying regression analysis to data collected in a survey with workers in Recife, a poor northeastern region, the author shows how the proposals advanced by the new unionism have successfully developed a new political culture he terms the "political culture of active citizenship."

relations. Analysing the current state of labour relations in
