Estimating the Counterfactual Impact of Conservation Programs on Land Cover Outcomes: The Role of Matching and Panel Regression Techniques

Creator:: Jones, Kelly W. and Lewis, David J.
Abstract:: Deforestation and conversion of native habitats continues to be the leading driver of biodiversity and ecosystem service loss. A number of conservation policies and programs are implemented—from protected areas to payments for ecosystem services (PES)—to deter these losses. Currently, empirical evidence on whether these approaches stop or slow land cover...

Theoretical Prediction of Disrupted Min Oscillation in Flattened Escherichia coli

Creator:: Schulte, Jeff B., Zeto, Rene W., and Roundy, David
Abstract:: The dynamics of the Min-protein system help Escherichia coli regulate the process of cell division by identifying the center of the cell. While this system exhibits robust bipolar oscillations in wild-type cell shapes, recent experiments have shown that when the cells are mechanically deformed into wide, flattened out, irregular shapes,...

Introgressive Hybridization and the Evolution of Lake-Adapted Catostomid Fishes

Creator:: Dowling, Thomas E., Markle, Douglas F., Tranah, Greg J., Carson, Evan W., Wagman, David W., and May, Bernard P.
Abstract:: Hybridization has been identified as a significant factor in the evolution of plants as groups of interbreeding species retain their phenotypic integrity despite gene exchange among forms. Recent studies have identified similar interactions in animals; however, the role of hybridization in the evolution of animals has been contested. Here we...

Invasive Congeners Differ in Successional Impacts across Space and Time

Creator:: David, Aaron S., Zarnetske, Phoebe L., Hacker, Sally D., Ruggiero, Peter, Biel, Reuben G., and Seabloom, Eric W.
Abstract:: Invasive species can alter the succession of ecological communities because they are often adapted to the disturbed conditions that initiate succession. The extent to which this occurs may depend on how widely they are distributed across environmental gradients and how long they persist over the course of succession. We focus...

High-Density SNP Genotyping of Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) Reveals Patterns of Genetic Variation Due to Breeding

Creator:: Sim, Sung-Chur, Van Deynze, Allen, Stoffel, Kevin, Douches, David S., Zarka, Daniel, Ganal, Martin W., Chetelat, Roger T., Hutton, Samuel F., Scott, John W., Gardner, Randolph G., Panthee, Dilip R., Mutschler, Martha, Myers, James R., and Francis, David M.
Abstract:: The effects of selection on genome variation were investigated and visualized in tomato using a high-density single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array. 7,720 SNPs were genotyped on a collection of 426 tomato accessions (410 inbreds and 16 hybrids) and over 97% of the markers were polymorphic in the entire collection. Principal...

How Effective Are DNA Barcodes in the Identification of African Rainforest Trees?

Creator:: Parmentier, Ingrid, Duminil, Jérôme, Kuzmina, Maria, Philippe, Morgane, Thomas, Duncan W., Kenfack, David, Chuyong, George B., Cruaud, Corinne, and Hardy, Olivier J.
Abstract:: Background: DNA barcoding of rain forest trees could potentially help biologists identify species and discover new ones. However, DNA barcodes cannot always distinguish between closely related species, and the size and completeness of barcode databases are key parameters for their successful application. We test the ability of rbcL, matK and...

ARK: Aggregation of Reads by K-Means for Estimation of Bacterial Community Composition

Creator:: Koslicki, David, Chatterjee, Saikat, Shahrivar, Damon, Walker, Alan W., Francis, Suzanna C., Fraser, Louise J., Vehkaperä, Mikko, Lan, Yueheng, and Corander, Jukka
Abstract:: Motivation: Estimation of bacterial community composition from high-throughput sequenced 16S rRNA gene amplicons is a key task in microbial ecology. Since the sequence data from each sample typically consist of a large number of reads and are adversely impacted by different levels of biological and technical noise, accurate analysis of...

Mapping the Global Emergence of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, the Amphibian Chytrid Fungus

Creator:: Olson, Deanna H., Aanensen, David M., Ronnenberg, Kathryn L., Powell, Christopher I., Walker, Susan F., Bielby, Jon, Garner, Trenton W. J., Weaver, George, The Bd Mapping Group, and Fisher, Matthew C.
Abstract:: The rapid worldwide emergence of the amphibian pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) is having a profound negative impact on biodiversity. However, global research efforts are fragmented and an overarching synthesis of global infection data is lacking. Here, we provide results from a community tool for the compilation of worldwide Bd presence...

Estimating Global ‘‘Blue Carbon’’ Emissions from Conversion and Degradation of Vegetated Coastal Ecosystems

Creator:: Pendleton, Linwood, Donato, Daniel C., Murray, Brian C., Crooks, Stephen, Jenkins, W. Aaron, Sifleet, Samantha, Craft, Christopher, Fourqurean, James W., Kauffman, J. Boone, Marba, Nuria, Megonigal, Patrick, Pidgeon, Emily, Herr, Dorothee, Gordon, David, and Baldera, Alexis
Abstract:: Recent attention has focused on the high rates of annual carbon sequestration in vegetated coastal ecosystems—marshes, mangroves, and seagrasses—that may be lost with habitat destruction (‘conversion’). Relatively unappreciated, however, is that conversion of these coastal ecosystems also impacts very large pools of previously-sequestered carbon. Residing mostly in sediments, this ‘blue...

Infection of Brachypodium distachyon by Formae Speciales of Puccinia graminis: Early Infection Events and Host-Pathogen Incompatibility

Creator:: Figueroa, Melania, Alderman, Stephen, Garvin, David F., and Pfender, William F.
Abstract:: Puccinia graminis causes stem rust, a serious disease of cereals and forage grasses. Important formae speciales of P. graminis and their typical hosts are P. graminis f. sp. tritici (Pg-tr) in wheat and barley, P. graminis f. sp. lolii (Pg-lo) in perennial ryegrass and tall fescue, and P. graminis f....
