For years, Galicia had been a part of Poland. Its scenery, woods and rivers had been our parents’ memories. A Jewish culture had developed in Galicia, the Yiddish language was created there, customs established, unique Jewish foods cooked, the figure of the “Yiddishe Mame” developed, inspiring a good deal of genealogical research; “Halakhot” and Rabbinic Laws made; an authoritative leadership established in the towns, organizing communities on their social institutions – Galicia gave birth to the “Shttetl” – the Jewish town, on all its social-historical and emotional implications.

  • Pvamu Kicks Off Pacesetters Initiative to Assist African
    PVAMU KICKS OFF PACESETTERS INITIATIVE TO ASSIST AFRICAN COUNTRIES The new multidisciplinary effort will help improve food security, sustainable agriculture, renewable energy and social welfare in Africa. PRAIRIE VIEW, Texas (June 25, 2021) – Prairie View A&M University (PVAMU) is spearheading a new multidisciplinary effort, created by The International Institute of Family Development Inc., to help improve food security, sustainable agriculture, renewable energy and social welfare in Africa. Called the Pacesetters Initiative, this new partnership with students, faculty and industry leaders in specific African nations will draw from PVAMU’s celebrated academic programs to comprehensively address multi- faceted problems in Africa. “It’s an opportunity, in keeping with the university’s Quality Enhancement Plan for the next decade, for our students to be more internationally engaged with serious issues,” said project lead Camille Gibson, Ph.D., professor and interim dean of the College of Juvenile Justice. Through the university’s relationship with The International Institute of Family Development Inc., PVAMU has forged formal academic partnerships with: . Kenyatta University, Kenya . Great Lakes University of Kisumu, Kenya . The University of The Gambia, The Gambia . The University of Liberia, Liberia . Covington University, Liberia . Bong County Technical College, Liberia “The Pacesetters Initiative opens the possibility to build the resumes and skillsets of both African and HBCU students,” echoed executive managing director of The International Institute of Family Development Inc. Veola Green. “We hope this dynamic connection can solve real-world problems.” PVAMU is scheduled to kick off the venture this summer with partnerships with the University of Liberia and Great Lakes University of Kisumu in Kenya.

Bot. Fennici 50: 327–336. Over 30 Prunus species and taxa below the rank of species are known from Iran. These wild taxa provide an enlarged gene pool and may be considered a valuable germ- plasm source for breeding cultivated almonds. The present study is a genetic diversity analysis of six P. scoparia populations using six nuclear SSR markers. We also studied correlations between the population genetic differences, morphological differences and geographical distance. All six SSR primers produced amplification. The highest number of alleles occurred in the Fars and Lorestan populations, with 121 and 114 alleles, respectively. Some of the alleles were shared by all populations, while some others were specific to one population only.

USA. Accepted 20 January, 2011 Wild almond species are important genetic resources for resistance to unsuitable condition, especially drought stress. They have been used traditionally as rootstocks in some areas of Iran. So far, 21 wild almond species and 7 inter species hybrids have been identified in Iran. To study seed germination and seedling establishment of some of these species, three separate experiments were designed. In the first experiment, the application of gibberellic acid (GA3) (0, 250, 500 and 750 ppm) for 24 h was studied on germination characteristics of four wild almond accessions after stratification at 5 ± 0.5°C in Perlite media. Germination percentage, index vigor and root initiation factors were different in almond accessions, but were not affected by hormonal treatments. In the second experiment, seeds of another six wild almond accessions were stratified to compare their germination ability. Germination percentage, index vigor and root initiation were different among accessions significantly.
