The sequence of conceptual information in instruction and its effect on retention [PDF]
Two experiments were carried out to study the effect of the sequencing of the information in an instructional program. In both experiments, two different ordering principles were used. These principles were based on the relation between the to be learned

A remotely sensed pigment index reveals photosynthetic phenology in evergreen conifers
Significance Evergreen photosynthetic activity has been difficult to determine from remote sensing, causing errors in terrestrial photosynthetic carbon uptake models. Using a reflectance chlorophyll/carotenoid index (CCI) sensitive to seasonally changing

A War of Words: Do Conflict Metaphors Affect Beliefs about Managing “Unwanted” Plants?
Woody plants have increased in density and extent in rangelands worldwide since the 1800s, and land managers increasingly remove woodland plants in hopes of restoring pre-settlement conditions and/or improved forage for grazing livestock.

Application of Proteomics to the Study of Pollination Drops
Premise of the study: Pollination drops are a formative component in gymnosperm pollen-ovule interactions. Proteomics offers a direct method for the discovery of proteins associated with this early stage of sexual reproduction.

Assessing the Gene Content of the Megagenome: Sugar Pine (Pinus lambertiana). [PDF]
Sugar pine (Pinus lambertiana Douglas) is within the subgenus Strobus with an estimated genome size of 31 Gbp. Transcriptomic resources are of particular interest in conifers due to the challenges presented in their megagenomes for gene identification ...

Stress-induced nitric oxide and adaptive plasticity in conifers
The excitable properties of conifer protoplasm consist of nitric oxide (NO) bursts that prime and prepare chemical messengers for the transmission of stressful environmental signals.

Tree differences in primary and secondary growth drive convergent scaling in leaf area to sapwood area across Europe [PDF]
open28siTrees scale leaf (AL) and xylem (AX) areas to couple leaf transpiration and carbon gain with xylem water transport. Some species are known to acclimate in AL : AX balance in response to climate conditions, but whether trees of different species ...
