Background: Potato virus Y (PVY) is one of the most important plant viruses affecting potato production. The
interactions between potato and PVY are complex and the outcome of the interactions depends on the potato
genotype, the PVY strain, and the environmental conditions. A potato cultivar can induce resistance to a...
The northern spotted owl (Strix occidentalis caurina) is one of the most intensively studied raptors in the world; however, little is known about the impacts of wildfire on the subspecies and how they use recently burned areas. Three large-scale wildfires in southwest Oregon provided an opportunity to investigate the short-term...
Bulk compositions, petrology and mineralogy of > 0.5 mm Luna 16 aluminous mare basalt particles are described. The data rule out any close genetic relationships between Luna 16 and other major types of lunar mare basalts. Compared to high‐Ti mare basalts, the Luna 16 basalts contain lower TiO₂ (5.1 wt...
Benthic infaunal communities are important components of coastal ecosystems. Understanding the relationships between the structure of these communities and characteristics of the habitat in which they live is becoming progressively more important as coastal systems face increasing stress from anthropogenic impacts and changes in climate. To examine how sediment characteristics...
