Room temperature multiferroic properties of single-phase (Bi₀.₉La₀.₁)FeO₃-Ba(Fe₀.₅Nb₀.₅)O₃ solid solution ceramics

Creator:: Paik, Hanjong, Hwang, Hosung, No, Kwangsoo, Kwon, Seunghwa, and Cann, David P.
Abstract:: The crystal structure and multiferroic properties of single-phase (Bi₀.₉La₀.₁)FeO₃–Ba(Fe₀.₅Nb₀.₅)O₃ ceramics were investigated. The rhombohedral-type structure of 1.0(Bi₀.₉La₀.₁)FeO₃) was transformed to a monoclinic-type structure for the 0.5(Bi₀.₉La₀.₁)FeO₃–0.5Ba(Fe₀.₅Nb₀.₅)O₃) composition. It shows the coexistence of ferroelectricity and magnetism at room temperature, represented by a high dielectric constant with ferroelectric hysteresis and clear magnetic...

Estimating Global ‘‘Blue Carbon’’ Emissions from Conversion and Degradation of Vegetated Coastal Ecosystems

Abstract:: Recent attention has focused on the high rates of annual carbon sequestration in vegetated coastal ecosystems—marshes, mangroves, and seagrasses—that may be lost with habitat destruction (‘conversion’). Relatively unappreciated, however, is that conversion of these coastal ecosystems also impacts very large pools of previously-sequestered carbon. Residing mostly in sediments, this ‘blue...

Within the Rhodococcus genus, some members can cause growth deformities and persist as pathogens on a wide range of host plants. The current model predicts that phytopathogenic isolates require a cluster of three loci present on a linear plasmid, with...

This management approach can exacerbate tensions among stakeholders with competing interests who in turn rely on data with notoriously high variance. In this case study, an application of diet and dive survey data was used to describe...

Differences in Adélie Penguin (Pygoscelis adeliae) Chick Growth Rates and Diet

Creator:: Jennings, Scott, Varsani, Arvind, Dugger, Katie M., Ballard, Grant, and Ainley, David G.
Abstract:: Sexually size-dimorphic species must show some difference between the sexes in growth rate and/or length of growing period. Such differences in growth parameters can cause the sexes to be impacted by environmental variability in different ways, and understanding these differences allows a better understanding of patterns in productivity between individuals...

Host Identity Matters in the Amphibian-Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis System: Fine-Scale Patterns of Variation in Responses to a Multi-Host Pathogen

Creator:: Gervasi, Stephanie, Gondhalekar, Carmen, Olson, Deanna H., and Blaustein, Andrew R.
Abstract:: Species composition within ecological assemblages can drive disease dynamics including pathogen invasion, spread, and persistence. In multi-host pathogen systems, interspecific variation in responses to infection creates important context dependency when predicting the outcome of disease. Here, we examine the responses of three sympatric host species to a single fungal pathogen,...

Greater sage-grouse apparent nest productivity and chick survival in Carbon County, Wyoming

Creator:: Kehmeier, Jon W., Hansen, Christopher P., Schreiber, Leslie A., Thompson, Frank R., III, Rumble, Mark A., Wojik, Nate, Millspaugh, Joshua J., and Gamo, R. Scott
Abstract:: Greater sage-grouse Centrocercus urophasianus populations across North America have been declining due to degradation and fragmentation of sagebrush habitat. As part of a study quantifying greater sage-grouse demographics prior to construction of a wind energy facility, we estimated apparent net nest productivity and survival rate of chicks associated with radio-equipped...

Infection of Brachypodium distachyon by Formae Speciales of Puccinia graminis: Early Infection Events and Host-Pathogen Incompatibility

Creator:: Figueroa, Melania, Alderman, Stephen, Garvin, David F., and Pfender, William F.
Abstract:: Puccinia graminis causes stem rust, a serious disease of cereals and forage grasses. Important formae speciales of P. graminis and their typical hosts are P. graminis f. sp. tritici (Pg-tr) in wheat and barley, P. graminis f. sp. lolii (Pg-lo) in perennial ryegrass and tall fescue, and P. graminis f....

A new species of Sebastes (Scorpaeniformes: Sebastidae) from the northeastern Pacific, with a redescription of the blue rockfish, S. mystinus (Jordan and Gilbert, 1881)

Creator:: Frable, Benjamin W., Wagman, D. Wolfe, Frierson, Taylor N., Aguilar, Andres, and Sidlauskas, Brian L.
Abstract:: The diverse predatory rockfishes (Sebastes spp.) support extensive commercial fisheries in the northeastern Pacific. Although 106 species of Sebastes are considered valid, many of the ecological, geographical, and morphological boundaries separating them lack clarity. We clarify one such boundary by separating the blue rockfish Sebastes mystinus (Jordan and Gilbert, 1881)...

The Effect of Iron Limitation on the Transcriptome and Proteome of Pseudomonas fluorescens Pf-5

Creator:: Lim, Chee Kent, Hassan, Karl A., Tetu, Sasha G., Loper, Joyce E., and Paulsen, Ian T.
Abstract:: One of the most important micronutrients for bacterial growth is iron, whose bioavailability in soil is limited. Consequently, rhizospheric bacteria such as Pseudomonas fluorescens employ a range of mechanisms to acquire or compete for iron. We investigated the transcriptomic and proteomic effects of iron limitation on P. fluorescens Pf-5 by...

Effect of Climate on the Distribution of Fusarium spp. Causing Crown Rot of Wheat in the Pacific Northwest of the United States

Creator:: Poole, Grant J., Smiley, Richard W., Walker, Carl, Huggins, David, Rupp, Richard, Abatzoglou, John T., Garland-Campbell, Kimberly, and Paulitz, Timothy C.
Abstract:: Fusarium crown rot (FCR) is one of the most widespread root and crown diseases of wheat in the Pacific Northwest (PNW) of the United States. Our objectives were to characterize crown rot severity and distribution throughout the PNW by conducting a survey of 210 fields covering the diverse dryland wheat-producing...

Long-Term Citizen-Collected Data Reveal Geographical Patterns and Temporal Trends in Lake Water Clarity

Creator:: Lottig, Noah R., Wagner, Tyler, Norton Henry, Emily, Spence Cheruvelil, Kendra, Webster, Katherine E., Downing, John A., and Stow, Craig A.
Abstract:: We compiled a lake-water clarity database using publically available, citizen volunteer observations made between 1938 and 2012 across eight states in the Upper Midwest, USA. Our objectives were to determine (1) whether temporal trends in lake-water clarity existed across this large geographic area and (2) whether trends were related to...

Host-Selective Toxins of Pyrenophora tritici-repentis Induce Common Responses Associated with Host Susceptibility

Creator:: Pandelova, Iovanna, Figueroa, Melania, Wilhelm, Larry J., Manning, Viola A., Mankaney, Aakash N., Mockler, Todd C., and Ciuffetti, Lynda M.
Abstract:: Pyrenophora tritici-repentis (Ptr), a necrotrophic fungus and the causal agent of tan spot of wheat, produces one or a combination of host-selective toxins (HSTs) necessary for disease development. The two most studied toxins produced by Ptr, Ptr ToxA (ToxA) and Ptr ToxB (ToxB), are proteins that cause necrotic or chlorotic...

Abstract:: This paper explores the development of biomechanical models for evaluating a new class of passive mechanical implants for orthopedic surgery. The proposed implants take the form of passive engineered mechanisms, and will be used to improve the functional attachment of muscles to tendons and bone by modifying the transmission of...
