A composite model of maize heterosis based on structural complementation and functional variants
Abstract Heterosis is critical to high maize (Zea mays L.) yields; however, its genetic mechanism remains poorly understood because different molecular markers reflect distinct genetic components. This study uses a North Carolina II mating design to evaluate grain yield per plant of 87 hybrids derived from 29 recombinant inbred lines and three testers ...

The Role of Lightning in Atmospheric Chemistry
Abstract Lightning has important effects on atmospheric constituents in primarily the middle and upper troposphere. We summarize the effects of lightning on atmospheric chemistry that have been published since the last major review in 2007. The estimates of NOx production by lightning (LNOx) are based on five methods: theoretical/laboratory estimates ...

New records for the Australian burrower bug species (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Cydnidae)
New records are presented for 23 Australian species of the family Cydnidae (Pentatomoidea). Alonips papuanus is documented for the first time in Australia. The first precise localities for Aethus parvulus in Australia are provided. Additionally, five species are reported as new records for Australian states and territories. These are Byrsinus ochraceus

The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology
ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...
