Local News Deserts and Community Social Capital Erosion

open access: yesJournal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The disappearance of local newspapers across the United States has sparked growing concern about its implications for community life in rural America. This study examines the societal consequences of local news deserts, focusing on three critical dimensions of community social capital: crime, civic engagement, and political polarization. Using

Investigation of the global transportation of Culicoides biting midges, vectors of livestock and equid arboviruses, from flower‐packing plants in Kenya

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Arboviral diseases spread by Culicoides biting midges have been introduced into Europe by unknown means. A possible route is the carriage of midges with cut flowers shipped to flower markets. We sampled Culicoides in and around a cut flower farm in Kenya; midges were caught in the vicinity and a greenhouse, but not where flowers are processed.

Transfer cells in Horneophyton lignieri illuminate the origin of vascular tissues in land plants

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Recent fossil discoveries and advances in plant phylogeny have renewed debate about the most recent common ancestor (MRCA) of land plants and the evolution of its fundamental organs and tissues. We re‐investigate the vascular system of Horneophyton lignieri, an exceptionally preserved Rhynie Chert fossil central to understanding early plant ...

Leaf gas exchange measurement for steady‐state stomatal conductance model calibration

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Stomatal conductance models are essential components of crop and land surface models, but collecting data to calibrate them remains challenging due to large leaf‐to‐leaf variability, slow stomatal kinetics, and a lack of consistent measurement protocols, leading to unknown reliability and representativeness of calibrated model parameter ...

New Integrative Vectors Increase Agrobacterium rhizogenes Transformation and Help Characterise Roles for Soybean GmTML Gene Family Members

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hairy‐root transformation is widely used to generate transgenic plant roots for genetic functional characterisation studies. However, transformation efficiency can be limited, largely due to the use of binary vectors. Here, we report on the development of novel integrative vectors that significantly increase the transformation efficiency of ...

Contingent Grounding Physicalism

open access: yesAnalytic Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT It is widely held that physicalism is incompatible with the metaphysical possibility of zombies, i.e., beings physically just like us yet lacking in phenomenal consciousness. The present paper argues that this orthodoxy is mistaken. As against the received wisdom, physicalism is perfectly compatible with the possibility of zombies and zombie ...

Theory of Sense‐Data

open access: yesAnalytic Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT I develop and defend a sense‐datum theory of perception. My theory follows the spirit of classic sense‐datum theories: I argue that what it is to have a perceptual experience is to be acquainted with some sense‐data, where sense‐data are private particulars that have all the properties they appear to have, that are common to both perception ...
