This paper analyzes factors contributing to terrorism, using its initial meaning from the French Revolution in which the state is the terrorist. The independent economic variables are mineral exports/GDP, military expenditures/GDP, real GDP growth, real per capita GDP, and population density, and the dependent variable is democide, the murder of people by government.

Focusing on the region surrounding the Maroni River, which forms the border between Suriname and French Guiana, we examine how relations between different state and non-state social groups are articulated in terms of security. The region is characterised by multiple "borders" and frontiers of various kinds, the state boundary having the features of an interface or contact zone. Several key coll...

Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is the world’s second most important grain legume after common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). Ethiopia considered as a secondary center of genetic diversity for chickpea.

The enzymic nature of the protein moiety of protochlorophyll(ide) holochrome was studied by following the fate of the [(14)C]protochlorophyll(ide) formed when dark-grown barley (Hordeum vulgare) or bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) leaves are incubated in the dark with 3 mm 4-delta-[(14)C]aminolevulinic acid. It was found that: [List: see text]Since turnover of protochlorophyll(ide) was not observed, t...

Water uptake of seeds of Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv Limburg was monitored in a controlled atmosphere every day at solar noon for a period of 2 years. The imbibition rate, determined as the mean of five replicas, was related to the lunar cycle, maximal water uptake occurring between the new phases of the cycle. The monthly mean value of imbibition rate, calculated from the daily measurements, disp...

Stomatal resistances and turgor pressures were measured during a 12-day period on leaves of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. Contender) which were treated with kinetin, were salinized or were treated with kinetin and salinized. Stomatal resistances were highest in salt-stressed plants, and progressively lower in salt-stressed and kinetin-treated plants, control plants, and kinetin-treated plants...

Due to the increasing emergence of drug resistant Tuberculosis (TB), particularly multidrug resistant TB (MDR-TB), extensive-drug resistant TB (XDR-TB) and also the development of resistance in the micro-organisms against available drugs there is a need to develop new, potent, fast-acting antibacterial and antitubercular drugs with low toxicity. With this aim different extracts of Phaseolus vul...
