In genetics , the term horizontal resistance was first used by J.E. Vanderplank ref name Vanderplank1963 Vanderplank, J.E. 1963 Plant Diseases Epidemics and Control. Academic Press, New York and London, 349pp. ref to describe many gene resistance. This contrasts with the term Vertical Resistance vertical resistance which was used to describe single gene resistance. Raoul A Robinson Raoul A. Robinson ref name Robinson1976 Raoul A Robinson Robinson, Raoul A. 1976 Plant Pathosystems. Springer Verlag, Berlin, Heidelberg, New York, 184pp. ref further refined the definition of horizontal resistance. Unlike Vertical Resistance vertical resistance and parasitic ability, horizontal resistance and horizontal parasitic ability are entirely independent of each other in genetic terms. In the first round of breeding for horizontal resistance, plants are exposed to pathogens and selected for partial resistance. Plants unaffected by the pathogen have vertical resistance and are removed. Obviously plants with no resistance die, the remaining plants have partial resistance and their seed is stored and bred back up to sufficient volume for further testing. The hope is that in these remaining plants are multiple types of partially resistant genes, and by crossbreeding this pool back on itself multiple partial resistance genes will be encouraged and provide resistance to a larger variety of pathogens than vertical resistance . Successive rounds of breeding for horizontal resistance proceed in a more traditional fashion, selecting plants for disease resistance as measured by yield. These plants are exposed to native regional pathogens, and given minimal assistance in fighting them. ref name Beyond GMO the REAL answer to healthy, disease resistant crops http newfarm.rodaleinstitute.org international pan am don nov04 chapingo.shtml ref References reflist 2 Category Phytopathology Category Molecular biology genetics stub ... more details
Orphan date February 2009 Refimprove date January 2008 Horizontal correlation is a methodology for genegene sequence analysis. Rather than referring to one specific technique, horizontal correlation instead encompasses a variety of approaches to sequence analysis that are unified by two specific themes Sequence analysis is performed by making comparisons horizontally , along the length of a single genetic sequence this is in contrast to vertical methods that make comparisons across several different genetic sequences. The comparisons made generally measure information theory information theoretic quantities such as value of the mutual information function between two regions of the sequence. The core ideas of the horizontal correlation approach were first presented in a year 2000 paper by Grosse, Herzel, Buldyrev, and Stanley Grosse, et al. 2000 . In this first formulation, Grosse and colleagues sought to characterize a large genetic sequence by dividing the sequence into genetic code coding and non coding regions. Whereas traditional approaches to the coding vs. non coding problem generally relied on sophisticated pattern recognition systems that were first trained on small inputs and then run over the entire sequence Ohler, et al. 1999 , the horizontal correlation approach of Grosse and colleagues worked instead by breaking the sequence into many relatively short sequence fragments, each only 500 base pairs in length. They then sought to characterize each of these fragments as either coding or non coding. This was accomplished by comparing each size 3 window along the length of a fragment with the first size 3 window in that fragment, then measuring the value of the mutual information function between the two windows. Coding sequences were found to display a stylized ..., et al. 2000 .

refimprove date March 2009 File Integration in English.svg 250px thumb right A diagram illustrating horizontal integration and contrasting it with vertical integration. Marketing In microeconomics and strategic management , the term horizontal integration describes a type of ownership and control. It is a strategy used by a business or corporation that seeks to sell a type of Product business product in numerous market s. Horizontal integration in marketing is much more common than vertical integration is in production. Horizontal integration occurs when a firm is being taken over by, or merged with, another firm which is in the same industry and in the same stage of production as the merged firm, e.g. a car manufacturer merging with another car manufacturer. In this case both the companies are in the same stage of production and also in the same industry. This process is also known as a buy out or take over . The goal of Horizontal integration is to consolidate like companies and monopolize an industry. A monopoly created through horizontal integration is called a horizontal monopoly . A term that is closely related with horizontal integration is horizontal expansion . This is the expansion of a firm within an industry in which it is already active for the purpose of increasing its share of the market for a particular product or service.

seealso Social equality Horizontal inequality is the inequality economical, social or other that does not follow from a difference in an inherent quality such as intelligence, attractiveness or skills for people or profitability for corporations. In sociology, this is particularly applicable to forced inequality between different subcultures living in the same society. In economics, horizontal inequality is seen when people of similar origin, intelligence, etc. still do not have equal success and have different status, income and wealth. Traditional economic theory predicts that horizontal inequality should not exist in a free market. However, horizontal inequality is observed in real and simulated free market systems. The Pareto optimal economy is one traditional approach to the problem. Even in simulated systems, inequality of perfectly identical actors arises, to give the rich and poor . ref Eric Beinhocker.

The northern most and seaward gorge is 20 metres wide and the inner one is 12 metres. Above each of the gorges are natural reservoirs of between 6 and 8 km long which fill and empty with seawater through the gorge openings. As the water passes through the narrow openings, changing tides can give rise to a couple of metres height difference in the sea level between both sides. The direction of the flow reverses with each turning tide. As the tides in the Kimberley can run up to 10 metres, the flow through the Horriez local name on a large tide is spectacular.

In mathematics , in the field of differential topology , given &pi E &rarr M , a smooth fiber bundle over a smooth manifold M , then the vertical bundle V E of E is the subbundle of the tangent bundle T E consisting of the vectors which are tangent to the fibers of E over M . A horizontal bundle is then a particular choice of a subbundle of T E which is complementary to V E , in other words provides a complementary subspace in each fiber. In full generality, the horizontal bundle concept is one way to formulate the notion of an Ehresmann connection on a fiber bundle . However, the concept is usually applied in more specific contexts. More precisely, if e &isin E with &pi e x &isin M , then the vertical space V sub e sub E at e is the tangent space T sub e sub E sub x sub to the fiber E sub x sub through e . A horizontal bundle then determines an horizontal space H sub e sub E such that T sub e sub E is the direct sum of vector spaces direct sum of V sub e sub E and H sub e sub E . If E is a principal bundle principal G bundle then the horizontal bundle is usually required to be G invariant see Connection principal bundle for further details. In particular, this is the case when E is the frame bundle , i.e., the set of all ordered basis frame s for the tangent spaces of the manifold, and G GL sub n sub .
