Ethylene and Fruit Ripening

open access: yesHortScience, 1985
Abstract An investigator commencing work on ethylene and fruit ripening is confronted by the enormous diversity among fruit. It is necessary to identify unique characteristics that differentiate fleshy plant structures from other plant parts in order to develop new treatments successfully for extending the commercial life of fruit.

Young children's perspectives of time: New directions for co‐constructing understandings of quality in ECEC

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Children's relationship with time in preschools is an under‐researched area. Young children rarely know how to measure time using a clock, but their experiences of time may contribute to understanding children's well‐being and debates about quality in preschools.

A novel NAC transcription factor mediates negative regulation of early ethylene production and ripening in tomato fruits

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
Timely initiation of fruit ripening is crucial for improving agricultural efficiency and shelf life. While the progression of tomato ripening and the roles of ethylene and its core transcriptional controls are well established from the breaker (BR) stage

De Gustibus Est Disputandum: The role of agricultural and applied economists in an era of behavior change initiatives and endogenous preferences

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Popular society increasingly questions preferences that drive many resource allocations and production decisions, with many groups actively seeking to alter those preferences to achieve changes to resource use. Agricultural and applied economists, who are already equipped with excellent technical skills to undertake consumer preference and ...

Rangewide responses of Mimulus cardinalis to an extreme heat event

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Extreme events are an understudied aspect of ongoing anthropogenic climate change that could play a disproportionate role in the threat that rapid environmental shifts pose to natural populations. Methods We exposed plants originating from seeds that were harvested before (ancestors) and after (descendants) multiple extreme heat events

Dimorphic enantiostyly and its function for pollination by carpenter bees in a pollen‐rewarding Caribbean bloodwort

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Flowers that present their anthers and stigma in close proximity can achieve precise animal‐mediated pollen transfer, but risk self‐pollination. One evolutionary solution is reciprocal herkogamy. Reciprocity of anther and style positions among different plants (i.e., a genetic dimorphism) is common in distylous plants, but very rare in

Phylogenomics, ecomorphological evolution, and historical biogeography in Deuterocohnia (Bromeliaceae: Pitcairnioideae)

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Species of Deuterocohnia (17 spp.) show extraordinary variation in elevation (0–3900 m a.s.l.) and growth forms, and many have narrow geographic distributions in the west‐central Andes and the Peru‐Chile coast. Previous research using few plastid and nuclear loci failed to produce well‐resolved or supported phylogenies.

Rüdin's Unpublished Family Study From the Early 1920s: “On the Inheritance of Manic‐Depressive Insanity”

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ernst Rüdin, an important and controversial figure in the history of psychiatric genetics, published only one major empirical study on siblings of dementia praecox (DP) probands in 1916. He conducted a parallel study of siblings of probands with manic‐depressive insanity (MDI), but the resulting monograph, written in the early 1920s, was left ...
