Does wildfire likelihood increase following insect outbreaks in conifer forests?

Creator:: Meigs, Garrett W., Campbell, John L., Zald, Harold S. J., Bailey, John D., Shaw, David C., and Kennedy, Robert E.
Abstract:: Although there is acute concern that insect-caused tree mortality increases the likelihood or severity of subsequent wildfire, previous studies have been mixed, with findings typically based on stand-scale simulations or individual events. This study investigates landscape- and regional-scale wildfire likelihood following outbreaks of the two most prevalent native insect pests...

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...

Uncertainty analysis: an evaluation metric for synthesis science

Creator:: Harmon, Mark E., Fasth, Becky, Halpern, Charles B., and Lutz, James A.
Abstract:: The methods for conducting reductionist ecological science are well known and widely used. In contrast, those used in the synthesis of ecological science (i.e., synthesis science) are still being developed, vary widely, and often lack the rigor of reductionist approaches. This is unfortunate because the synthesis of ecological parts into...

Evidence that summer jellyfish blooms impact Pacific Northwest salmon production

Creator:: Ruzicka, James J., Daly, Elizabeth A., and Brodeur, Richard D.
Abstract:: Interannual variability in salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) production in the northeast Pacific is understood to be driven by oceanographic variability and bottom-up processes affecting prey availability to juvenile salmon. Scyphozoan jellyfish have an important role in shaping the pathways of energy flow through pelagic food webs. While jellyfish obtain high production...

The ERI-6/7 Helicase Acts at the First Stage of an siRNA Amplification Pathway That Targets Recent Gene Duplications

Creator:: Fischer, Sylvia E. J., Montgomery, Taiowa A., Zhang, Chi, Fahlgren, Noah, Breen, Peter C., Hwang, Alexia, Sullivan, Christopher M., Carrington, James C., and Ruvkun, Gary
Abstract:: Endogenous small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are a class of naturally occuring regulatory RNAs found in fungi, plants, and animals. Some endogenous siRNAs are required to silence transposons or function in chromosome segregation; however, the specific roles of most endogenous siRNAs are unclear. The helicase gene eri-6/7 was identified in the...

Intra‐ and inter‐annual variation in gray whale body condition on a foraging ground

Creator:: Soledade Lemos, Leila, Burnett, Jonathan D., Chandler, Todd E., Sumich, James L., and Torres, Leigh G.
Abstract:: Baleen whales store energy gained on foraging grounds to support reproduction and other metabolic needs while fasting for long periods during migration. Whale body condition can be used to monitor foraging success, and thus better understand and anticipate individual‐ and population‐level trends in reproduction and survival. We assessed the body...

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...

Identifying Potential Mechanisms Enabling Acidophily in the Ammonia-Oxidizing Archaeon "Candidatus Nitrosotalea devanaterra"

Creator:: Lehtovirta-Morley, Laura E., Sayavedra-Soto, Luis A., Gallois, Nicolas, Schouten, Stefan, Stein, Lisa Y., Prosser, James I., and Nicol, Graeme W.
Abstract:: Ammonia oxidation is the first and rate-limiting step in nitrification and is dominated by two distinct groups of microorganisms in soil: ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB). AOA are often more abundant than AOB and dominate activity in acid soils. The mechanism of ammonia oxidation under acidic conditions has...
