Resistance to Root-knot Nematodes in Cucumber and Horned Cucumber.

Journal of nematology, 2011
Two experiments were conducted in the greenhouse. In one experiment, cucumber (Cucumis sativus) and horned cucumber (C. metuliferus) cultigens were evaluated for resistance to four root-knot nematode species (Meloidogyne arenaria, M. hapla, M. incognita, and M. javanica), and, in a second experiment, a standard (12-week) test was compared with a rapid (

Do fawn‐footed mosaic‐tailed rats experience age‐related cognitive decline in novel object recognition?

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.
We explored age‐related cognitive decline in captive fawn‐footed mosaic‐tailed rats (Melomys cervinipes) using a novel object recognition task. Contrary to expectations, recognition memory did not decline with age, but recognition memory was lower in intermediate‐aged rats compared to both older and younger individuals.

Vocabulary Opens the Door; Creativity Guides the Search: Complementary Contributions to Second Language Semantic Fluency Across Domains

Language Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract Semantic fluency, the ability to retrieve words within a category, relies on lexical knowledge, semantic memory and executive control mechanisms. A richer, interconnected semantic memory and optimal executive control, as seen in creative individuals, enhance fluency through broad associative searches and quicker access to remote concepts ...
