Introduction

It is an introduction of CIFOR's research in Bulungan, Kalimantan with the Ministry of Forestry in Indonesia and ITTO. CIFOR's strategic research is focused on policy issues to enable more informed, productive, sustainable and equitable decisions about the management and use of forests. CIFOR works closely with ITTO and FORDA (the Forestry Research and Development Agency, Ministry of Forestry, Indonesia) as important strategic partners in the Bulungan model forest project phase 1, 1997-2001. The aim of the research is to carry out a systematic investigation of how to achieve forest sustainability for a 'large forest landscape' in the humid tropics, where diverse, rapidly changing and often conflicting land use demand exist. The specific objectives of the activities conducted with ITTO support are: 1) Assessment of the effect of reduced-impact logging (RIL) on biodiversity, conservation, ecology and socio-economics, 2) Assessment of rural development trends and future policy options including the effects of macro-level development activities on people dependent on the forest

Additional file 10: of Sequence variation and functional analysis of a FRIGIDA orthologue (BnaA3.FRI) in Brassica napus

Multiple sequence alignment between BnaC3.FRI and BolC.FRI.a. The Genbank accession numbers of BolC.FRI.a-E1 and BolC.FRI.a-E8 alleles used for the alignment were XP_013629499.1 and AFB73850.1, respectively. Stars indicate the non-synonymous mutations. Arrows indicate the two locations of amino acid deletions. (TIFF 6910 kb

Additional file 7: of Sequence variation and functional analysis of a FRIGIDA orthologue (BnaA3.FRI) in Brassica napus

The effect of different BnaC3.FRI haplotypes on mean days to flowering in SORs (accession numbers of mHAP1-3 were 33, 2, and 4, respectively) (A-C), and SWORs (accession numbers of mHAP1-3 were 87, 19, and 11, respectively) (D-F), and WOR (accession numbers of mHAP1 and 2 were 5 and 12, respectively) (G). Numbers above each box indicate the means of days to flowering for the three growing conditions (2013XN = at year 2013, Qinghai, spring environment; 2014LZ = at year 2014, Gansu, spring environment; 2014WH = at year 2014, Wuhan, semi-winter environment). ‘mHAP’ marker-based haplotype.
