Combining phenomic and genomic selection for pea breeding improvement
Abstract Pea (Pisum sativum L.) is a strategic crop in the development of sustainable agriculture. However, the genetic gain remains limited despite advances in breeding. Genomic selection holds promise to accelerate varietal improvement, but its high implementation cost restricts its use in crops.

Phenology, Mating Behaviour, and Ecology of a Wild New Zealand Nurseryweb Spider (Dolomedes minor)
Population dynamics are key to the understanding of mating systems, and in particular, sex ratios provide an insight into the evolutionary pressures governing a mating system. Variation in sex ratios can influence mate competition, parental investment strategies, and ultimately shape mating rates and the reproductive success of individuals within a ...

Abstract Background There is increasing interest in the circumstances under which universal school‐based social and emotional learning (SEL) interventions can be most effective, and how implementation moderates intervention outcomes. We focus on the implementation of ‘Passport Skills for Life’, an SEL intervention that has been introduced into over 100

Global phylogenomic tree and phylogenetic network of Suillus luteus and its closely related species. Summary Human colonization since the 19th century has resulted in the global spread of pines beyond their original northern boreal distribution. Although the introduction history of pines is documented through historical records, little is known about ...

Community‐level fitted relationship between spatial association Lij and trait dissimilarity (tDij) at the fine spatial scale (r = 40 mm; where r represents the radius around individuals of the focal species). Summary Predicting coexistence in species‐rich plant communities requires understanding the role of functional traits in species interactions and

Understanding the Climatology and Characteristics of Arctic Moisture Intrusions
Abstract Moisture and heat transport into the Arctic play important roles in modulating the local climate and Arctic sea ice variability. Moisture intrusions, the transport of extreme moisture channels into the Arctic, can perturb the surface energy balance and sea ice mass balance through radiative changes, triggering melt and inhibiting sea ice ...

Ecology and evolution of pyrazines in insects
ABSTRACT Chemical communication is the oldest and most widespread form of signalling among and within organisms. Among the many compounds involved in such communication, pyrazines – nitrogen‐containing heterocyclic molecules – are especially intriguing due to their widespread occurrence across the tree of life, from bacteria and fungi to insects and ...

ABSTRACT Objective Quantitative methods that have evaluated the Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire (EDE‐Q) have found consistent evidence that the original four‐factor structure does not replicate across diverse samples and genders. Emerging evidence in the broader psychology literature shows that qualitative methods can provide nuanced insight ...

There is debate over whether isolated populations of “pygmy” Australian freshwater crocodiles are a unique species. This is a conservation concern as these populations face unique challenges. We found some population differences which support these populations as being ecologically unique and valuable for targeted conservation.
