Transdisciplinary approaches and innovative combinations of social and ecological theory are required to deal with complexity and change in fisheries and other human-ecological systems. This paper examines the interplay and complementarities that emerge by linking resilience and social wellbeing approaches to better understand and govern fisheries. After first discussing the...
This paper provides summaries of presentations at a special session of IIFET 2012 that explored the potential value of a ‘wellbeing’ approach in small-scale fisheries, drawing on insights from the Governing Small-Scale Fisheries for Wellbeing and Resilience project. The research aimed to apply wellbeing concepts to both better understand fishery...
Members of Gram-positive Actinobacteria cause economically important diseases to plants. Within the Rhodococcus genus,
some members can cause growth deformities and persist as pathogens on a wide range of host plants. The current model
predicts that phytopathogenic isolates require a cluster of three loci present on a linear plasmid, with...
We report the sequence and characterization of the genomes of 21 isolates of Rhodococcus. Next generation sequencing technology was used to generate genome sequences. The reads for each genome were de novo assembled. The contigs were re-ordered, using the genome sequence of A44a as a reference. The program, Prokka, was...
