The creation of a new business venture is a

Short-term effects of 3 grazing systems and prescribed burning on bobwhite (Colinus virginianus) populations were investigated on the Welder Wildlife Refuge near Corpus Christi, Texas, during spring (April through June) and fall (September through October) of 1976 and 1977. Two rotational systems, high intensity-low frequency (HILF) and four-pasture, deferred-rotation (4PDR),...
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a 12-week nutrition and physical activity (PA) intervention program for middle-aged, pre-menopausal women at risk for Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) would reduce their risk factors. Ten overweight women (mean ± SD: age = 47 ± 3y; Body Mass Index = 31.0 ±...
Multiple factors are known to influence student success in higher education. Barriers to postsecondary success for underrepresented STEM students are numerous and well documented.

Alarista succina gen. et sp. nov. (Poaceae) is described from a single floret preserved in amber of Tertiary age originating from the Dominican Republic. The new genus is characterized by 1) a narrow winged lemma awn, 2) numerous (as many as 17) lemma nerves, 3) a lengthy rachilla internode (implying...
Dynamic marine environments can shape complex spatial and temporal patterns in the population connectivity of marine species, and this is often exemplified in species with long larval phases. Here, we used a genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) approach to examine fine-scale spatial and temporal genomic variation among Dungeness crab Cancer magister larval recruits...
