Whitebark pine (Pinus albicaulis) inhabits an expansive range in western North America, and it is a keystone species of subalpine environments. Whitebark is susceptible to multiple threats – climate change, white pine blister rust, mountain pine beetle, and fire exclusion – and it is suffering significant mortality range-wide, prompting the...
During traditional boat-based surveys of marine megafauna, behavioral observations are typically limited to records of animal surfacings obtained from a horizontal perspective. Achieving an aerial perspective has been restricted to brief helicopter or airplane based observations that are costly, noisy, and risky. The emergence of commercial small unmanned aerial systems...
The dataset here is used as a document file for presenting supplementary videos in the dissertation Tao, K. (2018). Investigating protein-lipid-membrane interactions in Plant Cells using Bimolecular Fluorescence Complementation (Doctoral dissertation).

This dataset is a compilation of all published denudation rates derived from in-situ cosmogenic radionuclides as of 2016. All sites have been geo-referenced (WGS 84). Geo-referenced locations are then used to extract the yearly aridity index for each site from the CGIAR global Aridity dataset (https://cgiarcsi.community/data/global-aridity-and-pet-database/). Denudation rates are used...
The accessions used to create the Snap Bean Diversity Panel (SnAP) were 378 snap bean cultivars and germplasm lines selected from North American and European germplasm. This panel supplements the 150 member Bean CAP snap bean diversity panel (SBDP) with an additional 228 snap bean accessions. The Bean CAP SBDP...
The accessions used to create the Snap Bean Diversity Panel were 150 snap bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) cultivars and breeding lines selected from North American and European germplasm to create a population that is representative of the snap bean market class from a historical and geographical viewpoint. This panel was developed...
Storm events can pulse nutrients and carbon from soils and provide an important subsidy to food webs in oligotrophic streams and lakes. Bacterial nutrient limitation and the potential response of stream aquatic bacteria to storm events was investigated in arctic tundra environments by manipulating both water temperature and inorganic nutrient...
Dramatic increases in research in the area of microbial biofuel production coupled with
high-throughput data generation on bioenergy-related microbes has led to a deluge of
information in the scientific literature and in databases. Consolidating this information and
making it easily accessible requires a unified vocabulary. The Gene Ontology (GO) fulfills...
Childhood obesity has increased dramatically over the last several decades, particularly in industrialized countries, often accompanied by acceleration of pubertal progression and associated reproductive abnormalities (Biro et al., 2006; Rosenfield et al., 2009). The timing of pubertal initiation and progression in mammals is likely influenced by nutritional and metabolic state,...
Bud dormancy in grapevine is an adaptive strategy for the survival of drought, high and low temperatures and freeze dehydration stress that limit the range of cultivar adaptation. Therefore, development of a comprehensive understanding of the biological mechanisms involved in bud dormancy is needed to promote advances in selection and...
