U.S. Consumer Preferences for Cage‐Free Eggs and Hen Housing Policies

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Farm animal welfare (FAW) continues to be a divisive issue in the egg industry. In the United States, 10 states and most major retailers have implemented policies or voluntary pledges to transition to 100% cage‐free egg sales. We use best‐worst scaling and discrete choice experiments to evaluate U.S.

Regional Differences in U.S. Consumer Preferences for Native Woody Shrubs With Varying Aesthetic Characteristics

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Native plants offer a variety of aesthetic (e.g., fall colour, fruit, flowers) and functional benefits (e.g., pollinator friendly, wildlife friendly, water management). How these benefits influence consumer choice and perceived value of native versus introduced plants is not well understood.

Intraspecific variation in stomatal architecture, gas exchange, and drought response of a dominant prairie grass sourced from broad climatic gradients

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Understanding how plant populations adapt to water limitation through stomatal traits is key to predicting drought responses. The dominant C4 grass Andropogon gerardi, distributed across sharp climate gradients in North America, offers an excellent focal species to study stomatal architecture (size and density).

Toward Harmonizing Quantification of Dopamine Neuron Imaging Biomarkers in Parkinson's Disease: The Centamine Scale

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Dopaminergic imaging is a key biomarker for both the investigation of the biology of Parkinson's disease and related synucleinopathies and the evaluation of potential therapies in clinical trials. This work presents a harmonized approach for quantifying dopaminergic molecular imaging tracers, such as [123I]ioflupane (dopamine transporter scan

Expanded application to plant reproductive tissues of a branched DNA probe‐based in situ hybridization method

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Detecting clear tissue‐ and organ‐specific patterns of gene expression is key to understanding the genetic mechanisms that control plant development. In situ hybridization (ISH) of mRNA is one of the most precise, yet most challenging approaches to gene expression assays.
