ABSTRACT Criminal courts increasingly treat intoxication as an aggravating rather than a mitigating factor in sentencing. This shift, seen in Australian law and other jurisdictions, raises the prospect of unjust outcomes. We examine this trend through the lens of desert‐based justifications for punishment, setting aside questions of deterrence and ...

De‐Coupled Water and Nitrogen Translocation From Subsoil to Canopy of Temperate Forest Trees

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Water and nitrogen (N) transport from soil to canopy play a central role in tree functioning, yet direct evidence for their timing and coupling in mature forests remains scarce. We report results from a paired dual‐isotope (2H, 15N) tracer experiment in a temperate forest, comparing water and nitrate uptake patterns across tree species ...

Rhizobacteria‐Induced Systemic Priming Against Fungal Pathogens Involves Hydroxycinnamic Acid Amides

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rhizosphere, a narrow region of soil surrounding roots, contains diverse microorganisms with a composition that is distinct from the surrounding soil. Some rhizosphere bacteria can trigger a heightened state of immunity in the whole plant, termed Induced Systemic Resistance (ISR).

Seed pellets containing activated carbon increase emergence of native plant species used in dryland restoration following herbicide application

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Over half of dryland ecosystems worldwide are degraded, making restoration a priority. Most dryland restoration efforts use seed‐based approaches, which often result in limited establishment of desirable species. The dual challenges of abiotic stressors and invasive species dominance are key barriers to native plant community ...

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endeavoring to avoid the pitfalls of being too trusting of regulated entities' compliance claims, regulators sometimes create regulatory systems with elaborate requirements for verification. But as these accountability and verification regimes attempt to circumvent one set of problems, they may inadvertently create others.

Genetic diversity in RHD and RHCE genes among a selected Kenyan blood donor population

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Serologic typing for ABO and RhD is standard in transfusion services, with extended serology and genotyping performed to reduce red cell alloimmunization risk. In Kenya, RH typing is limited to RhD, and genotyping is unavailable. This study used RHD/RHCE genotyping to predict phenotypes and their distribution in a Kenyan blood donor
