Redistributive land reforms, agricultural productivity, and structural change: New cross‐national evidence

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Large‐scale land reforms constitute a substantial redistribution of wealth and reallocation of agricultural land, which is a major form of asset and production input in developing countries. While land redistribution (from the rich to the poor) remains a highly controversial issue, extensive evidence on its effect is limited.

Lost in aggregation? On the importance of local food price data for food poverty estimates

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores within‐country variations in food price dynamics and food poverty estimates by employing local market price data and national consumer price index (CPI) data. Our results show that national CPI data may be useful for approximating national trends but they fail to detect and identify spatial variations in local trends, which

Drivers of insect herbivory resistance and tolerance to plant damage in the Brachypodium distachyon species complex

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Insect herbivory is a major biotic factor shaping plant populations and driving the evolution of defensive traits. Polyploidy (whole‐genome duplication) often induces substantial phenotypic and genotypic changes that may affect species interactions, including herbivory.

Shaped by context: Evolutionary trajectories of desiccation tolerance in land plants

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Desiccation tolerance (DT), the ability to survive near‐complete cellular dehydration, is widespread in diaspores but rare in the vegetative tissues of land plants. The patchy and punctuated phylogenetic distribution of vegetative desiccation tolerance (VDT) suggests that the trait is both ancient and recurrent, yet the evolutionary ...

Giving and receiving help in three contexts as predictors of alcohol outcomes in a longitudinal study of sober living house residents

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Although peer support is central to the social model approach emphasized in sober living houses (SLHs), no longitudinal studies have examined helping among SLH residents. This longitudinal study examined benefits of helping in three contexts among SLH residents. Data were from 205 participants entering 28 SLHs across 2021–2023. Interviews were
