Dissecting the genetic basis of climatic adaptation in wild relatives (Malus baccata) for climate‐resilient apple breeding

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This comprehensive map of genetic variation in wild apple (Malus baccata) and set of key genes associated with adaptation to temperature, precipitation, and soil properties establishes a foundation for breeding climate‐resilient apple cultivars and conserving the genetic resources of wild crop relatives.

Persistent and emerging cancer risks after migration: Evidence from North and South Korean cohorts

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background North Korean defectors in South Korea offer a rare natural model to trace cancer risk evolution after rapid environmental transition, given shared genetics but markedly contrasting early life exposures with South Korean residents. Methods Using the Korean National Health Insurance database, we constructed a nationwide matched cohort

How to stop North Korea’s nuclear ambition: failed diplomacy and future options

Journal of Contemporary East Asia Studies, 2018
There are two kinds of hostilities on the Korean Peninsula: hostility between the U.S. and North Korea; hostility between the two Koreas. The nature of North Korea’s nuclear crisis is a mixture of those two hostilities.

The hard and soft of it: The role of substrate in patterns of phase dominance and phenology in Gracilaria vermiculophylla

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite the importance of the seasonal timing of events in the life cycle for understanding population dynamics, we lack information on the phenology of most macroalgal species. The red macroalga Gracilaria vermiculophylla has become common in both hard‐ and soft‐bottom habitats following its invasion throughout the Northern Hemisphere.

A clonal legacy? Reproductive mode variation in hard‐ and soft‐bottom Gracilaria vermiculophylla populations

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The invasion of the red macroalga Gracilaria vermiculophylla provided an opportunity to investigate the influence of benthic habitats on the reproductive mode, population structure, and colonization dynamics in haploid‐diploid life cycles.

Influence of prey concentration, light intensity, and temperature on the growth and ingestion of the mixotrophic dinoflagellate Pyrophacus horologium, a predator of the harmful species Heterocapsa niei

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Pyrophacus horologium belongs to the family Pyrocystaceae and was recently identified as a mixotrophic dinoflagellate capable of feeding on other dinoflagellates. In this study, the growth and feeding responses of P. horologium were investigated under various environmental conditions by providing Heterocapsa niei, its preferred prey.

Macruropyxis fraxini on Fraxinus rhynchophylla: Confirmation in the Korean Peninsula after 82 Years and the First Record in South Korea

Mycobiology, 2020
Macruropyxis fraxini has been recorded on several species of Fraxinus in China, Japan, Russia (Far East), and North Korea since its first recorded observation as a rust fungus on F. rhynchophylla in Jilin, China, in 1899.

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Conceptualizing and contextualizing “large‐scale” and “scaling‐up” ecological restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Current restoration efforts are lagging behind the extent and pace of environmental degradation. This emphasizes the need and urgency to scale up ecological restoration. This study sought to understand the context of “large‐scale” and “scaling‐up” ecological restoration, that is, what it means, entails, where, and how it is implemented by ...
