DSR Buddy: A Conversational Agent Supporting Design Science Research Activities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Design Science Research (DSR) provides a rich body of frameworks, approaches, and methods to support researchers in conducting DSR projects. However, there is little support and guidance for effectively managing and documenting DSR processes.

Analysis of Gene Expression in Aedes aegypti Suggests Changes in Early Genetic Control of Mosquito Development

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aedes aegypti, a critical vector for tropical diseases, poses significant challenges for studying its embryogenesis due to difficulties in removing its rigid chorion and achieving effective fixation for in situ hybridization. Here, we present novel methodologies for fixation, dechorionation, DAPI staining, and in situ hybridization, enabling ...

Brazil seed transfer zones: Supporting seed sourcing for climate‐resilient ecosystem restoration

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Brazil has tens of millions of hectares of degraded land that must be restored to meet national and global biodiversity and climate goals. Sowing genetically diverse native seeds is key to restoring degraded lands to climate‐resilient landscapes, but we still lack guidance on how to effectively match seed sources to restoration sites across broad ...

Evaluation of factors affecting greater prairie‐chicken nest and brood survival

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Greater prairie‐chickens Tympanuchus cupido pinnatus in the Flint Hills ecoregion select recently burned grasslands for brooding and nest in areas that have been unburned for 1–3 years, suggesting the need for a mosaic of burn patches. However, it is unknown how patch area, configuration, and proximity to edges within such mosaics affect reproductive ...

Do Shifts in Migrant Labour due to COVID‐19 Affect Climate Change Adaptation Practices of Climate‐Vulnerable Farmers? Implications for the Post‐Pandemic Future

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The objective of our study is to examine how migrant labour shifts due to the COVID‐19 pandemic influenced the adaptation behaviour of climate‐vulnerable farmers in Nepal. We examine how the resulting temporary change in climate change adaptation behaviour may be sustainable and improved after migrant labour returns to overseas employment by ...

Comparing the Grain Yields of Direct-Seeded and Transplanted Rice: A Meta-Analysis

open access: yesAgronomy, 2019
Conventional transplanted rice (TPR) has been increasingly replaced by direct-seeded rice (DSR) because of its low water and labour requirements. Whether and how DSR can be as productive as TPR has received widespread attention.
