Screening for Fall Armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda J. E. Smith) Resistance in Early‐Maturing Tropical Maize Adapted to Sub‐Saharan Africa

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fall armyworm (FAW) (Spodoptera frugiperda J. E. Smith) has emerged as a serious pest since 2016 in Africa, affecting the food security and livelihoods of millions of smallholder farmers, especially those growing maize. Native genetic resistance to FAW is essential for reducing yield loss.

Comparing Cold Tolerance of sorghum (S. bicolor) A1 and A2 Cytoplasm‐Based Hybrids

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Systematic exploitation of heterosis via breeding of F1 hybrids is a major contributor to genetic gain in many major crops, including sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench). Different cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) systems have been identified for controlled F1 hybrid seed production in sorghum, with the so‐called A1 and A2 CMS systems being ...

Diet composition of the Red‐billed curassow (Crax blumenbachii) and its role as seed disperser in the Atlantic Forest: conservation insights

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Forest fragmentation and defaunation are major drivers of biodiversity loss in the Atlantic Forest of Brazil, where 70–90% of tree species depend on animal‐mediated seed dispersal. Reintroduction of large frugivores, such as cracids, is being used to restore species populations and lost ecological functions.

Tariff: The Most Beautiful Word in the Dictionary?

open access: yesReview of International Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We consider the welfare impacts of US tariff policy at levels proposed by President Donald J. Trump. General‐equilibrium simulations under a widely used transparent one‐sector trade model reveal sizable US welfare losses. When we extend the model to include bilateral firm selection and high resolution input–output linkages, the US losses ...

Eosinophilia in the Tropics: Should Empirical Anthelmintic Treatment Be Considered Standard Practice? A Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesTropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Eosinophilia is a common clinical finding with diverse etiologies. Helminthiasis is a major aetiology in tropical regions, but data from haematology consultation services at tertiary centres in endemic settings are limited. Objectives To determine the prevalence of helminthiasis among patients with eosinophilia at a tropical ...
