Warming Reduces Parasitoid Success and Narrows Their Diet Breadth
Warming may have a major impact on trophic networks, but few interactions are typically studied. Here we show that experimental warming strongly decreased the success of parasitoid development across 28 Drosophila‐parasitoid interactions from a tropical rainforest network. Warming strongly narrowed the diversity of hosts that the parasitoids could use.

Songbirds are a well‐established model group for the study of cultural evolution as their songs are learned (i.e. culturally transmitted), which may lead to divergence in song characteristics between populations. Song variation across populations may be affected by geographical isolation, timing and duration of the learning period, and life strategies ...

Test of the Biological Module of CERES-Maize Model in Lysimeters on Chromic Luvisols
This paper reports on CERES-maize model stepwise calibration, modification and validation using independent data from specific experiments carried out in a chromic luvisol (Chelopechene), Sofia field,1997-1999. Laboratory based water conductivity curve WCC (eq.1) and water retention curve WRC (eq.2) are calibrated (step i) and adjusted to data measured

Diploid origins and early genome stabilization in the allotetraploid Arabidopsis suecica
Summary Polyploidization, followed by genome downsizing, is a recurrent evolutionary cycle that dramatically reshapes genome structure. Newly formed polyploids must quickly adjust their cell division machinery to maintain stable chromosome inheritance, while long‐term stabilization involves rediploidization, returning the genome to a diploid‐like state.

FINANCIAL AND RISK ANALYSIS OF MAIZE TECHNOLOGY IN ETHIOPIA, BASED ON CERES-MAIZE MODEL RESULTS [PDF]
This paper presents a financial and risk analysis of improved versus traditional maize production technology in Ethiopia, based on yields simulated with the CERES-Maize crop growth model (Schulthess and Ward, 2000).

Stochastic dynamic simulation of fruit abortion: a case study of sweet pepper [PDF]
Abortion of reproductive organs diminishes yields in many crops. In indeterminate greenhouse crops, alternating periods of fruit abortion and fruit set exist, resulting in fluctuations in fruit yield. Factors affecting the level of abortion are e.g., the

EVALUATION OF CERES-MAIZE MODEL FOR HYBRID MAIZE (Zea mays L.) PRODUCTION
The trial was conducted at Agronomic Research farm, University of Sargodha during spring growing season, 2015, to calibrate and evaluate CERES-Maize model for simulating the impact of different sowing time on maize crop. The experiment was laid out in split plot design having three replications, keeping planting dates (25th Feb, 6thMar and 14thMar) in ...

Abstract Ensuring food security is crucial in the context of climate change and increased extreme weather events. Crop production depends not only on yield but also on the harvestable fraction (HF), the ratio of harvested areas to planted areas. While the impacts of climate fluctuations on crop yields are well‐document, the role of HF‐a critical yet ...
