Jola People
The Jola or Diola ( endonym: Ajamat) are an ethnic group found in Senegal, the Gambia, and Guinea-Bissau. Most Jola live in small villages scattered throughout Senegal, especially in the Lower Casamance region. The main dialect of the Jola language, Fogni, is one of the six national languages of Senegal. Their economy has been based on wet rice cultivation for at least one thousand years. This system has been characterized "one of the most significant examples of 'agrarian civilizations' in West Africa". However, the Jola probably reached the Lower Casamance region in the 14th century, assimilating the previous Bainuk people and their rice tradition. In colonial times, the Jola began to cultivate peanuts as a cash crop in the drier forests. Other activities include palm wine tapping, honey collecting, livestock rearing and the production of other crops such as sweet potatoes, yams and watermelon. The traditional religion of the Jola is animism, which is practised through f ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Platygloeales
The Platygloeales are an order of rust fungi in the class Pucciniomycetes. It contains two families, the '' Eocronartiaceae'' and also the '' Platygloeaceae''. Order Platygloeales are monophyletic group (they have a common ancestor). The results of a molecular analyses investigation in 2007, revealed that the former placement of '' Auriculoscypha'' genus in Platygloeales as in the Dictionary of the Fungi (as per Hawksworth et al. 1995; Kirk et al. 2001) can no longer be justified. Description Order Platygloeales are parasitic on mosses and other plants. They are saprobes on wood or they parasitize other fungi, ferns, mosses or other vascular plants. They have pycnium (fruiting body of rusts) which forms masses of hyphae (long, branching and filamentous structure) inside mosses; example genera include ''Platygloea'' and ''Eocronartium''. As part of Order Pucciniales they typically have 5 spore stages and 2 alternate hosts. They generally have four-celled ''auriculariod'' basi ...
