American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract While multiple factors explain low adoption rates of improved varieties by small‐scale farmers in sub‐Saharan Africa, a key supply‐side constraint is the limited availability of seed embodying new traits in the volume, quality, price, and timeliness required by farmers. This constraint is partly attributable to classical failures in the market

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Here we report two nonalternant polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) (1 and 2), which contain two and four consecutive pentagons, respectively. Under acidic conditions, 1 and 2 dimerize to afford the axially chiral dimers AC1 and AC2. The central azulene moiety in both 2 and AC2 shows an unusually short transannular bond of 1.366 Å.
