Reproductive phase locking of mosquito populations in response to rainfall frequency

Creator:: Shaman, Jeffrey and Day, Jonathan F.
Abstract:: The frequency of moderate to heavy rainfall events is projected to change in response to global warming. Here we show that these hydrologic changes may have a profound effect on mosquito population dynamics and rates of mosquito-borne disease transmission. We develop a simple model, which treats the mosquito reproductive cycle...

Genome-Wide Profiling and Analysis of Arabidopsis siRNAs

Creator:: Kasschau, Kristin D., Fahlgren, Noah, Chapman, Elisabeth J., Sullivan, Christopher M., Cumbie, Jason S., Givan, Scott A., and Carrington, James C.
Abstract:: Eukaryotes contain a diversified set of small RNA-guided pathways that control genes, repeated sequences, and viruses at the transcriptional and posttranscriptional levels. Genome-wide profiles and analyses of small RNAs, particularly the large class of 24-nucleotide (nt) short interfering RNAs (siRNAs), were done for wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana and silencing pathway mutants...

High-Throughput Sequencing of Arabidopsis microRNAs : Evidence for Frequent Birth and Death of MIRNA Genes

Creator:: Fahlgren, Noah, Howell, Miya D., Kasschau, Kristin D., Sullivan, Christopher M., Cumbie, Jason S., Givan, Scott A., Law, Theresa F., Grant, Sarah R., Dangl, Jeffrey L., and Carrington, James C.
Abstract:: In plants, microRNAs (miRNAs) comprise one of two classes of small RNAs that function primarily as negative regulators at the posttranscriptional level. Several MIRNA genes in the plant kingdom are ancient, with conservation extending between angiosperms and the mosses, whereas many others are more recently evolved. Here, we use deep...

Calcium carbonate production response to future ocean warming and acidification

Creator:: Pinsonneault, A. J., Matthews, H. D., Galbraith, E. D., and Schmittner, A.
Abstract:: Anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions are acidifying the ocean, affecting calcification rates in pelagic organisms, and thereby modifying the oceanic carbon and alkalinity cycles. However, the responses of pelagic calcifying organisms to acidification vary widely between species, contributing uncertainty to predictions of atmospheric CO₂ and the resulting climate change. At...

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...

Avian Species Richness in Relation to Intensive Forest Management Practices in Early Seral Tree Plantations

Creator:: Jones, Jay E., Kroll, Andrew J., Giovanini, Jack, Duke, Steven D., Ellis, Tana M., and Betts, Matthew G.
Abstract:: •Background: Managers of landscapes dedicated to forest commodity production require information about how practices influence biological diversity. Individual species and communities may be threatened if management practices truncate or simplify forest age classes that are essential for reproduction and survival. For instance, the degradation and loss of complex diverse forest...

Catching the Right Wave: Evaluating Wave Energy Resources and Potential Compatibility with Existing Marine and Coastal Uses

Creator:: Kim, Choong-Ki, Toft, Jodie E., Papenfus, Michael, Verutes, Gregory, Guerry, Anne D., Ruckelshaus, Marry H., Arkema, Katie K., Guannel, Gregory, Wood, Spencer A., Bernhardt, Joanna R., Tallis, Heather, Plummer, Mark L., Halpern, Benjamin S., Pinsky, Malin L., Beck, Michael W., Chan, Francis, Chan, Kai M. A., Levin, Phil S., and Polasky, Stephen
Abstract:: Many hope that ocean waves will be a source for clean, safe, reliable and affordable energy, yet wave energy conversion facilities may affect marine ecosystems through a variety of mechanisms, including competition with other human uses. We developed a decision-support tool to assist siting wave energy facilities, which allows the...

Length Bias Correction in Gene Ontology Enrichment Analysis Using Logistic Regression

Creator:: Mi, Gu, Di, Yanming, Emerson, Sarah, Cumbie, Jason S., and Chang, Jeff H.
Abstract:: When assessing differential gene expression from RNA sequencing data, commonly used statistical tests tend to have greater power to detect differential expression of genes encoding longer transcripts. This phenomenon, called "length bias", will influence subsequent analyses such as Gene Ontology enrichment analysis. In the presence of length bias, Gene Ontology...

Historical Biogeography and Diversification of Truffles in the Tuberaceae and Their Newly Identified Southern Hemisphere Sister Lineage

Creator:: Bonito, Gregory, Smith, Matthew E., Nowak, Michael, Healy, Rosanne A., Guevara, Gonzalo, Cazares, Efren, Kinoshita, Akihiko, Nouhra, Eduardo R., Domınguez, Laura S., Tedersoo, Leho, Murat, Claude, Wang, Yun, Arroyo Moreno, Baldomero, Pfister, Donald H., Nara, Kazuhide, Zambonelli, Alessandra, Trappe, James M., and Vilgalys, Rytas
Abstract:: Truffles have evolved from epigeous (aboveground) ancestors in nearly every major lineage of fleshy fungi. Because accelerated rates of morphological evolution accompany the transition to the truffle form, closely related epigeous ancestors remain unknown for most truffle lineages. This is the case for the quintessential truffle genus Tuber, which includes...

Short-term responses of native bees to livestock and implications for managing ecosystem services in grasslands

Creator:: Kimoto, Chiho, DeBano, Sandra J., Thorp, Robbin W., Taylor, Robert V., Schmalz, Heidi, DelCurto, Timothy, Johnson, Tracey, Kennedy, Patricia L., and Rao, Sujaya
Abstract:: Rangelands are significant providers of ecosystem services in agroecosystems world‐wide. Yet few studies have investigated how different intensities of livestock grazing impact one important provider of these ecosystem services—native bees. We conducted the first large‐scale manipulative study on the effect of a gradient of livestock grazing intensities on native bees...
