Needs Assessment for Future US Pear Rootstock Research Directions Based on the Current State of Pear Production and Rootstock Research

Creator:: Elkins, Rachel B., Bell, Richard, and Einhorn, Todd
Abstract:: The area devoted to pear production in the United States (U.S.) is declining due to lack of precocity and high cost of production. The U.S. pear industry currently lacks "modern" orchard systems characterized by compact trees that produce early, high yields of large, high quality fruit. Tall, shaded canopies are...

Compression wood has little impact on the water relations of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) seedlings despite a large effect on shoot hydraulic properties

Creator:: Spicer, Rachel and Gartner, Barbara L.
Abstract:: • Compression wood has been shown to reduce stem permeability, but it is not known to what extent it affects leaf‐level processes. Here, we report whole‐plant hydraulic properties of Douglas‐fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) seedlings induced to form varying amounts of compression wood. • Seedlings were grown under three bending treatments to...

To Act or Not to Act: Context, Capability, and Community Response to Environmental Risk

Creator:: Wright, Rachel A. and Boudet, Hilary Schaffer
Abstract:: Social movement theory has rarely been tested with counterfactual cases, that is, instances in which movements do not emerge. Moreover, contemporary theories about political opportunity and resources often inadequately address the issue of motivation. To address these shortcomings, this article examines 20 communities that are "at risk" for mobilization because...

Precaution in Stock Recovery Plans in a Fishery with Habitat Effects

Creator:: Nichols, Rachel, Yamazaki, Satoshi, and Jennings, Sarah
Abstract:: Depleted fish stocks and habitat degradation associated with human activity, particularly fishing, are both the subject of increasing concern and research. Harvest control rules and no-take marine reserves are two management approaches regularly advocated as effective means of restoring depleted fish stocks and preventing fishery collapse. We incorporate these two...
