Stato Libero del Congo, 1894. Lo chiamano il Regno delle Ossa. Per la tribù che abita in quelle terre, è un luogo maledetto, in cui nessuno osa avventurarsi. Eppure è proprio da lì che arriva la moneta appesa al collo del loro sciamano, una moneta d'oro purissimo, che porta l'effige del leggendario Prete Gianni. Attratto da quell'infinita ricchezza ammantata da secoli di superstizioni, il capitano Deprez parte alla sua ricerca. Non farà mai ritorno. Repubblica Democratica del Congo, oggi.

Some results are presented on tests to check the viability of pollen grains and the delivery of sperm cells through pollen tubes to the embryo sac. These results can serve as guidelines to any person seeking to improve pollination and productivity or to check the efficiency on pollination in ecosystems or agricultural production systems.

HiRes-Remaster and expanded edition of this 1973 release. „There's No Me Without You“ was the fifth studio album by legendary soul male vocal group The Manhattans. The Manhattans were experienced songwriters and their talents were fully utilized.
