Greenhouse studies were conducted to evaluate the influence of selected adjuvants on
glyphosate efficacy on yellow nutsedge and tuber production. Glyphosate was applied
at 0, 0.25, 0.43, 0.87, 1.26 (1x rate), and 1.74 kg ae ha⁻¹ 31 d after yellow nutsedge
was planted. Each rate was mixed with one of...
Opinions about public lands and the actions of private non-industrial forest owners in the
western United States play important roles in forested landscape management as both public
and private forests face increasing risks from large wildfires, pests and disease. This
work presents the responses from two surveys, a random-sample telephone...
In the future, Earth will be warmer, precipitation events will be more extreme, global mean sea level will rise, and many arid and semiarid regions will be drier. Human modifications of landscapes will also occur at an accelerated rate as developed areas increase in size and population density. We now...
Background:
In the SOD1^G93A mutant rat model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), neuronal death and rapid paralysis progression are associated with the emergence of activated aberrant glial cells that proliferate in the degenerating spinal cord. Whether pharmacological downregulation of such aberrant glial cells will decrease motor neuron death and prolong...
•Plant population genomics informs evolutionary biology, breeding, conservation and bioenergy feedstock development. For example, the detection of reliable phenotype–genotype associations and molecular signatures of selection requires a detailed knowledge about genome-wide patterns of allele frequency variation, linkage disequilibrium and recombination.
•We resequenced 16 genomes of the model tree Populus trichocarpa...
The last glacial period exhibited abrupt Dansgaard–Oeschger climatic oscillations, evidence of which is preserved in a variety of Northern Hemisphere palaeoclimate archives¹. Ice cores show that Antarctica cooled during the warm phases of the Greenland Dansgaard–Oeschger cycle and vice versa[superscript 2,3], suggesting an interhemispheric redistribution of heat through a mechanism...
