Preliminary Functional Group Patterns of Arthropods in a Maize Field and Adjacent Cultivated Refuge Strip in South Africa

open access: yesAustral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Agricultural intensification is a major driver of global arthropod declines. Habitat management strategies, such as cultivated refuge strips (CRS), can counteract these effects by enhancing biodiversity, promoting conservation biological control and improving agroecosystem resilience.

Taking Responsibility for Confined Threatened Species Populations

open access: yesEcological Management &Restoration, Volume 27, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Adaptive management that predicts and responds rapidly to triggers is essential for sustained conservation and animal welfare outcomes for contained animal populations, including of threatened species. We provide a template for creating a sustainable and culturally‐appropriate Strategic Adaptive Management Plan for confined wildlife, using a ...

Dams and Introduced Species Drive Patterns of Environmental Adaptation in an Iconic but Imperiled Coldwater Fish (Brook Trout, Salvelinus fontinalis)

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Freshwater biodiversity is being disproportionately negatively impacted by anthropogenic stressors including climate change, partly due to limited opportunities to seek more favorable conditions compared to marine and terrestrial species. Management plans that maintain locally adapted genotypes, and integrate active management interventions ...

Interspecific hybridization inRibes

Genetica, 1963
The genusRibes, 2n=16, consisting of over 150 shrubby species has been divided byRehder into 15 sections grouped into four subgenera. Data on interspecies crosses within and between these sections and subgenera made by previous workers and at East Malling are tabulated and discussed.

Interspecific hybridization of chestnut

2016
Chestnut (Castanea) is a tree genus distributed throughout the northern Hemisphere in natural stands, orchards, and coppices. As a multipurpose tree, chestnut is used to produce timber, nuts, tannins, and other related products. Interspecific hybridization was first done in 1894 in the USA, in the 1910s in Japan, and in the 1920s in Europe. In the USA,

Biosystematics and Interspecific Hybridization

1996
The genus Trifolium L. has been divided into eight sections (Zohary and Heller, 1984). Although numerous Trifolium species are utilized by grazing animals in their native habitat, only about 11 species are used to any extent in planted pastures. Of these 11, T. vesiculosum Savi, arrowleaf clover, is in section Mistyllus (C.

Interspecific Hybridization and Introgression

2002
Some of the economically important horticultural crops have two common features. First, they are of interspecific hybrid origin and, second, they are mostly polyploids. The histories of the origin of such ornamentals as Rosa, Narcissus, Iris, Crocus and Chrysanthemum, among others, have been well documented (Stern, 1946; Wylie, 1952; Darlington, 1976 ...

Interspecific hybridization in cucumis

Economic Botany, 1971
A. The genusCucumis and its close relatives in the family Cucurbitaceae have long supported a disorganized tangle of misinformation resulting from incorrect identification of plant cultures. Several disease resistance surveys and other studies on exotic species of cucurbits have reported information on unverified and often misnamed cultures, but ...

Interspecific Hybrids of Tilapia

Nature, 1960
WHITEHEAD'S claim1 to describe hybrids between Tilapia nigra and T. zillii in two waters in which both species had been introduced could be accepted only if supported by unequivocal evidence. His only evidence that T. zillii was one of the parents of the problematical fishes is that this was the only species other than T.

GISH: Resolving Interspecific and Intergeneric Hybrids

2013
Genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) is an invaluable cytogenetic technique which enables the visualization of whole genomes in hybrids and polyploidy taxa. Total genomic DNA from one or two different species/genome is used as a probe, labeled with a fluorochrome and directly detected on mitotic chromosomes from root-tip meristems. In sugarcane we were
