Two Lines Enable FasTrack Breeding in Blueberry

Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science
The juvenile period of blueberry seedlings typically lasts ≈3 to 4 years. To shorten this period and facilitate FasTrack breeding, we developed transgenic ‘Aurora’ blueberry plants with constitutive expression of the blueberry FLOWERING LOCUS T gene ...

Adaptation of the invasive pest Drosophila suzukii to a specialized nutritional niche

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Unlike most Drosophila larvae that feed on spoiled food, Drosophila suzukii larvae thrive on ripening fruits and consequently face a low‐protein, high‐carbohydrate nutritional challenge. Comparisons of growth among D. suzukii, D. biarmipes, and D. melanogaster larvae across diets with varying protein‐to‐carbohydrate ratios demonstrate that D.

Ants contribute to raspberry pollination in protected cropping systems

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Ants visited raspberry flowers more frequently than European honey bees (Apis mellifera), Australian stingless bees (Tetragonula carbonaria) and flies, many transporting raspberry pollen on their bodies, indicating potential pollination capacity. Ants were active flower visitors at most times of the day and may extend the daily pollination window and ...

Colony‐level pollen collection reflects visitation of managed bumble bees (Bombus impatiens) in strawberry fields and surrounding landscapes without reducing pollen limitation

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
We extracted pollen from colony beeswax to quantify season‐long, colony‐level resource use and tested how managed Bombus impatiens visitation and Rosaceae pollen collection relate to landscape context and strawberry pollination. Increased managed bumble bee visitation was not influenced by surrounding landcover, did not reduce pollen limitation and ...

VcTT2 enhances drought tolerance in blueberry by regulating ROS scavenging

Fruit Research
Blueberries are highly valued for their nutritional richness and distinctive flavor. However, they are susceptible to drought stress, which adversely affects growth, yield, and fruit quality.

Feared self and responsibility in obsessive compulsive phenomena

British Journal of Clinical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives This study investigated the roles of feared self and inflated responsibility in obsessive–compulsive tendencies through an online experiment. Design A total of 185 participants (Mage = 28.11, SD = 9.12) were randomly assigned to either a heightened responsibility or control condition, then primed with feared self scenarios (morality
