When attentive insider trading matters: Evidence from government investment

Journal of Financial Research, EarlyView.
Abstract We examine whether insiders can exploit public information to increase their trading profitability. By exploiting, as a quasi‐natural experiment, the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL), announced in the U.S. in March 2021 and implemented in November 2021, we provide evidence that insiders earn higher profits when government investment plans ...

Segment information disclosure and trade credit

Journal of Financial Research, EarlyView.
Abstract We examine the effect of mandatory segment disclosure on trade credit financing. Segment disclosure reduces the information advantage of suppliers relative to investors in evaluating firm default risk, reducing firms' reliance on trade credit. Exploiting the adoption of SFAS 131 as a shock to segment disclosure, we find that segment disclosure

Rhododendron diversity patterns provide new insights for conserving China's montane flora

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Integrating distribution, phylogenetic, and functional trait data for 603 Rhododendron species in China identified significant conservation hotspots of multidimensional diversity, particularly in the Hengduan Mountains. Climate seasonality and topographic heterogeneity jointly influenced these patterns; however, notable conservation gaps remained ...

Inertia or Adaptability? The Effects of Outside Director Incumbency Capital on Incumbent Firms' Adoption of Discontinuous Technologies

Journal of Product Innovation Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We fuse research on incumbents' adaptation to discontinuous technologies with board capital theory to investigate how heterogeneity in incumbent firms' adoption of discontinuous technologies may be affected by what we label as outside director incumbency capital—the specific subset of social capital and human capital that outside directors ...

Do Tech‐Based New Ventures Founded During Major Economic Crises Generate Different R&D Outputs?

Journal of Product Innovation Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tech‐based ventures—regardless of external circumstances—must allocate resources to research and development (R&D) activities to satisfy their raison d'être and establish their market positioning. When founded during economic crises, these ventures encounter distinctive opportunities but also face resource scarcity, both of which significantly

Genetic, phenotypic, and ecological differentiation indicate a new cryptic and threatened species in the orchid genus Epidendrum from Alcatrazes Island, southeastern Brazil

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
Epidendrum insularis occurs on the remote Alcatrazes Island in the southeastern Brazilian coast. The description of this new cryptic species was only possible by the joint use of molecular markers, reproductive experiments, flower morphometry, functional traits, and community analysis.

A trait‐based integration of competition and abiotic tolerance underlies plant success

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Competitive effect and abiotic tolerance show positive associations with species' niche breadth and local dominance. Summary Understanding what determines species' ecological success is a central challenge in ecology. Competitive ability and abiotic tolerance are expected to be strong predictors of species success, yet theory predicts a trade‐off ...

How Do Strikes and Lockouts Affect Applications to Danish Public Service Professional Education Programs? A Synthetic Control Analysis

Public Administration, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With fewer young people entering public service, public employers and the corresponding trade unions aim at signaling that they offer attractive working conditions. However, in the struggle for attractive conditions, labor market conflicts occur between public employers and public sector unions when bargains fail. According to signaling theory,

No Cost of Resistance in Wheat Gene Stack Lines Containing 10 Stem Rust Resistance Transgenes

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Genetic resistance is the most economical and sustainable approach for crop protection, however, it is regularly overcome by pathogen virulence evolution. Polygenic resistance has greater durability, but unlinked genes are laborious to maintain in breeding programs.
