Breeding songbird use of native warm‐season and non‐native cool‐season grass forage fields
Converting fields of non‐native cool‐season grasses to native warm‐season grasses has been proposed as a strategy to enhance avian habitat and diversify forage production for livestock, but may yield poor‐quality food and cover for birds.

Transferability of Microsatellite Markers Among Cool Season Cereals [PDF]
ABSTRACTMicrosatellite markers are powerful tools for many evolutionary and genetic studies. They provide high level of polymorphism and information in cereal genomic research. However, development of microsatellite markers is extremely expensive and both time and labor consuming because of the requirement of prior sequence knowledge for design of ...

Pythium Blight on Overseeded Turfgrass
Pythium blight or cottony blight rapidly kills cool-season turfgrasses overseeded as winter cover of warm-season species. The disease can occur on bermudagrass in the summer, but disease severity on this warm-season species often is limited when ...

Opportunities of Semiconducting Oxide Nanostructures as Advanced Luminescent Materials in Photonics
The review discusses the challenges of wide and ultrawide bandgap semiconducting oxides as a suitable material platform for photonics. They offer great versatility in terms of tuning microstructure, native defects, doping, anisotropy, and micro‐ and nano‐structuring. The review focuses on their light emission, light‐confinement in optical cavities, and

Electrochromic Adaptive Solar Heater and Sub‐Ambient Passive Daytime Radiative Cooler
An electrochromic Cu–Bi nanocluster device dynamically switches between solar heating and daytime sub‐ambient radiative cooling without mechanical motion. Defect‐activated graphene, minimized electrolyte loss, and pulse‐assisted reversible electrodeposition enable opposite solar and mid‐infrared modulation in one opaque platform, establishing a design ...
