Evaluating testcross performance and genetic divergence of lines derived from reciprocal tropical maize composites

Creator:: Menkir, Abebe, Kling, Jennifer G., Anjorin, Bamyo, Ladejobi, Funmilayo, and Gedil, Melaku
Abstract:: The development of hybrids with enhanced expression of heterosis depends on the genetic background of the source population and the effectiveness of a breeding scheme used to identify and use divergent inbred lines with good combining ability. The present study was conducted to examine the potential of improved tropical reciprocal...

Estimating heterotrophic respiration at large scales: challenges, approaches, and next steps

Creator:: Bond-Lamberty, Ben, Epron, Daniel, Harden, Jennifer, Harmon, Mark E., Hoffman, Forrest, Kumar, Jitendra, David McGuire, Anthony, and Vargas, Rodrigo
Abstract:: Heterotrophic respiration (HR), the aerobic and anaerobic processes mineralizing organic matter, is a key carbon flux but one impossible to measure at scales significantly larger than small experimental plots. This impedes our ability to understand carbon and nutrient cycles, benchmark models, or reliably upscale point measurements. Given that a new...

Factors affecting female space use in ten populations of prairie chickens

Creator:: Winder, Virginia L., Carrlson, Kaylan M., Gregory, Andrew J., Hagen, Christian A., Haukos, David A., Kesler, Dylan C., Larsson, Lena C., Matthews, Ty W., McNew, Lance B., Patten, Michael A., Pitman, Jim C., Powell, Larkin A., Smith, Jennifer A., Thompson, Tom, Wolfe, Donald H., and Sandercock, Brett K.
Abstract:: Conservation of wildlife depends on an understanding of the interactions between animal movements and key landscape factors. Habitat requirements of wide-ranging species often vary spatially, but quantitative assessment of variation among replicated studies at multiple sites is rare. We investigated patterns of space use for 10 populations of two closely...

Recruitment, Growth and Mortality of an Antarctic Hexactinellid Sponge, Anoxycalyx joubini

Creator:: Dayton, Paul K., Kim, Stacy, Jarrell, Shannon C., Oliver, John S., Hammerstrom, Kamille, Fisher, Jennifer L., O'Connor, Kevin, Barber, Julie S., Robilliard, Gordon, Barry, James, Thurber, Andrew R., and Conlan, Kathy
Abstract:: Polar ecosystems are sensitive to climate forcing, and we often lack baselines to evaluate changes. Here we report a nearly 50-year study in which a sudden shift in the population dynamics of an ecologically important, structure-forming hexactinellid sponge, Anoxycalyx joubini was observed. This is the largest Antarctic sponge, with individuals...

Development and Infectious Disease in Hosts with Complex Life Cycles

Creator:: Searle, Catherine L., Xie, Gisselle Yang, and Blaustein, Andrew R.
Abstract:: Metamorphosis is often characterized by profound changes in morphology and physiology that can affect the dynamics of species interactions. For example, the interaction between a pathogen and its host may differ depending on the life stage of the host or pathogen. One pathogen that infects hosts with complex life cycles...

Utility of a Work Process Classification System for characterizing non-fatal injuries in the Alaskan commercial fishing industry

Creator:: Syron, Laura N., Lucas, Devin L., Bovbjerg, Viktor E., Bethel, Jeffrey W., and Kincl, Laurel D.
Abstract:: Background. The US commercial fishing industry is hazardous, as measured by mortality data. However, research on non-fatal injuries is limited. Non-fatal injuries constitute the majority of occupational injuries and can result in workers' lowered productivity and wages, lost quality of life, and disability. In the United States, a Work Process...

Abstract:: The Generation Challenge programme (GCP) is a global crop research consortium directed toward crop improvement through the application of comparative biology and genetic resources characterization to plant breeding. A key consortium research activity is the development of a GCP crop bioinformatics platform to support GCP research. This platform includes the...

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...

Non-Invasive Sampling of Schistosomes from Humans Requires Correcting for Family Structure

Creator:: Steinauer, Michelle L., Christie, Mark R., Blouin, Michael S., Agola, Lelo E., Mwangi, Ibrahim N., Maina, Geoffrey M., Mutuku, Martin W., Kinuthia, Joseph M., Mkoji, Gerald M., and Loker, Eric S.
Abstract:: For ethical and logistical reasons, population-genetic studies of parasites often rely on the non-invasive sampling of offspring shed from their definitive hosts. However, if the sampled offspring are naturally derived from a small number of parents, then the strong family structure can result in biased population-level estimates of genetic parameters,...

What the Inbred Scandinavian Wolf Population Tells Us about the Nature of Conservation

Creator:: Räikkönen, Jannikke, Vucetich, John A., Vucetich, Leah M., Peterson, Rolf O., and Nelson, Michael P.
Abstract:: The genetic aspects of population health are critical, but frequently difficult to assess. Of concern has been the genetic constitution of Scandinavian wolves (Canis lupus), which represent an important case in conservation. We examined the incidence of different congenital anomalies for 171 Scandinavian wolves, including the immigrant founder female, born...
