Detecting cryptic ghost lineage introgression in four‐taxon genomic datasets

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Hybridization and introgression are pervasive evolutionary forces that have played fundamental roles in shaping the diversity of wild and domesticated plants. Four‐taxon tests for introgression provide a reliable framework for detecting signatures of ancient introgression from genomic data, which have played an important role in ...

Towards Grower-friendly Apple Crop Thinning by Tree Shading [PDF]

, 2008
Light management with shading nets, which reduce sunlight by 74%, might be an alternative to chemicals commonly used for thinning on apple trees. To study the effect of shading on crop load and fruit quality, trials were conducted in field experiments ...

A roadmap to key traits of invasive Drosophilidae

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions have intensified in recent decades, mostly driven by international trade and travel, raising significant concerns, particularly regarding insect pests. Once non‐native species establish, they can disrupt natural ecosystem stability, undermine agroecosystem sustainability and cause substantial economic losses.

Differentiating apple sports by pollen ultrastructure : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Horticultural Science at Massey University [PDF]

, 1995
Cultivars are plants that form distinct, uniform and stable phenotypes. New cultivars can be protected by Plant Variety Rights (PVR) which allow the owner exclusive rights to the propagation and sale of the plant material.

Advancing Upcycling and Regeneration of Spent LiFePO4: Failure Mechanisms and Recovery Strategies

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
This review studies the failure mechanism to promote the upcycling regeneration of spent lithium iron phosphate (S‐LFP). It first summarizes the failure mechanisms of LFP batteries revealed via advanced characterization technologies and then explores the respective advantages and challenges of hydrometallurgy and direct regeneration methods.

Fermentation‐Induced Modulation of Polyphenolic Contents and Medicinal Activities in Annona squamosa Seeds

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
The study compared the medicinal activities of polyphenols from fermented and unfermented seeds of Annona squamosa. The polyphenols were extracted and subjected to standard analysis. The major phenolic components of the fermented polyphenols and the unfermented polyphenols were found to be 4‐hydroxybenzoic and 4‐hydroxyphenylacetic acid, respectively ...

Effects of restricting movement between root and canopy populations of woolly apple aphid.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Movement of insect pests between spatially subdivided populations can allow them to recolonize areas where local extinction has occurred, increasing pest persistence. Populations of woolly apple aphid (Eriosoma lanigerum [Hausmann]; Hemiptera: Aphididae),
