Institutional Distance and the Lived Experience of Actors in the Contemporary MNC: The Role of Positionality

open access: yesHuman Resource Management Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT International human resource management (IHRM) and its larger sibling of international business (IB) have cross‐fertilized each other for many years. In this paper, we suggest that IHRM research's nuanced appreciation for new patterns of work, such as the increase in internationally integrated work processes and the emergence of global virtual

Global HRM and Transnational Networks: Unpacking the Micro‐Behavioral Process Supporting Global HRM Integration Using a Quantitative Multi‐Source, Multi‐Level Design

open access: yesHuman Resource Management Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Whether and why social processes support global HRM integration is an overlooked, yet increasingly relevant performance question in decentralized transnational work environments. Using social capital theory, we conceptualize the social dynamic and behaviors influencing global HRM integration.

The Growths of Different Fern Plants were Enhanced by the Inoculations of a Plant Endophytic Bacterium Burkholderia seminalis Strain 869T2

open access: yesHortScience
Ferns represent a primitive lineage within the vascular plant kingdom characterized by distinct reproductive and structural traits that set them apart from seed-bearing plants.

Fern sperm release

open access: yes, 2008
Fern spores germinate into haploid fern gametophytes; small plants only a few millimeters in diameter. These gametophytes produce sperm by mitosis in small sacs called antheridia. When placed in water, the antheridium opens up, and the sperm are released.

The Wonder Years: A Demographic Approach to Revisit the Age‐at‐Size Conundrum in Amphibians

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We combined repeated body size measurements of marked individuals of unknown age throughout their adult life with growth records of individuals marked as postmetamorphic juveniles and recaptured years later as sexually mature adults, focusing on 10 amphibian species in central Spain.

Fern sperm release

open access: yes, 2014
Fern spores germinate into haploid fern gametophytes; small plants only a few millimeters in diameter. These gametophytes produce sperm by mitosis in small sacs called antheridia. When placed in water, the antheridium opens up, and the sperm are released.

Contrasting Responses of Rodents With Different Habitat Associations to Rapid Urbanization in a Chinese Megacity

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Rapid urbanization reshaped rodent populations, morphology, and gut microbiota along an urban–rural gradient. The synanthropic rat (Rattus norvegicus) increased in abundance toward the urban core and exhibited reduced ear and tail length, whereas the farmland mouse (Apodemus agrarius) and woodland rat (Niviventer confucianus) declined.

Comparative plastome analyses and evolutionary relationships of Drynaria

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionThe genus Drynaria, a member of the Polypodiaceae family, exhibits substantial medicinal and ornamental value. Although molecular biological studies have elucidated the phylogenetic relationships in Drynaria, the characteristics of its ...

HGTScanner: Detecting horizontal gene transfer at the fine scale using whole organelle genomes

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) has profoundly shaped eukaryotic organellar genomes like plant mitochondria. Yet no generalized tools are currently available to efficiently characterize HGT across these genomes due to both high structural complexity and low sequence divergence compared to prokaryotic HGTs.

Rapid loss of germinability and gradual loss of physiological activity in Japanese Dryopteris uniformis (Dryopteridaceae) spores stored in herbaria

open access: yesJournal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity
Herbaria of museums and universities contain vast arrays of plant specimens. If seeds and spores from these specimens can be successfully germinated, they can help restore genetic diversity in current plant populations and even reestablish lost species ...
