The heritability of resistance to death from the effects of lead in laboratory guppy populations was determined from comparisons between progeny produced in a nested breeding experiment and from
mass selection experiments. Resistance was measured by the time to death. Heritabilities of resistance to lead were estimated to be 0.26...
Grapevine leafroll disease (GLD) is one of the most important grapevine viral diseases affecting grapevines worldwide. The impact on vine health, crop yield, and quality is difficult to assess due to a high number of variables, but significant economic losses are consistently reported over the lifespan of a vineyard if...

Federally listed as threatened in 1990 primarily because of habitat loss, the northern spotted owl (Strix occidentalis caurina) has continued to decline despite conservation efforts resulting in forested habitat being reserved throughout its range. Recently, there is growing evidence the congeneric invasive barred owl (Strix varia) may be responsible for...
Citizen-science projects engage volunteers to gather or process data to address scientific questions. But
citizen-science projects vary in their ability to contribute usefully for science, conservation, or public policy.
eBird has evolved from a basic citizen-science project into a collective enterprise, taking a novel
approach to citizen science by developing...
Estimates of species' vital rates and an understanding of the factors affecting those parameters over time and space can provide crucial information for management and conservation. We used mark–recapture, reproductive output, and territory occupancy data collected during 1985–2013 to evaluate population processes of Northern Spotted Owls (Strix occidentalis caurina) in...
