This paper aims to reveal the application of Blue Print Model in the national cocoa movement program in Indonesia. This model compares the achievement of targets with expectations. The study was carried out by comparing targets to be achieved with targets obtained on three variables: seed rejuvenation, side-grafting activities, and intensification of cocoa plants. The results show that the target obtained is different from the expected target in the three variables.

In ebook "Ecophysiology of high salinity tolerant plants (Tasks for vegetation science 40)" the halophytes are highly specialized plants, which have greater tolerance to salt. They can germinate, grow and reproduce successfully in saline areas which would cause the death of regular plants. Most halophytic species are found in salt marsh systems along seashores or around landlocked inland lakes and flat plains with high evaporation.

Seed-borne rice endophytes are capable of disseminating into host plant tissues as well as to their rhizosphere. Here, we investigated the occurrence of siderophore-producing bacteria (SPB) in the seed endospheres of two distinct rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivars, TK8 (ssp. japonica) and TCN1 (ssp. indica), and their dissemination into the rhizospheres through culture-dependent methods.
