Hybridisation and Species Boundaries in Eucalypts

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT We review Jamie (James Barrie) Kirkpatrick's influential studies on eucalypt genecology in the 1970's and the trajectory that this research followed in subsequent decades. We focus on two themes which involve hybridisation and gene flow. The first theme is his work on phantom hybrids, which highlights the challenges in determining the origin ...

SUCTION MEASUREMENTS AND WATER RETENTION IN UNSATURATED SOILS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Techniques for testing unsaturated soils have been investigated by the author where the measurement and control of parameters were undertaken directly. Suction was measured and controlled with a new high suction tensiometer and water content through mass

Phytochemical Composition, Oxidative Stability, and Antioxidant Behavior of Roasted Expeller‐Pressed Oils From Butternut Squash and Pumpkin Seeds

open access: yesJournal of Food Processing and Preservation, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Seed oils are increasingly valued for their nutritional quality and natural antioxidant content, yet their oxidative stability remains a critical quality concern. This study evaluated the phytochemical composition, antioxidant capacity, and oxidative stability of roasted butternut squash (Cucurbita moschata) (BSO) and pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo) seed oils

Assessment of the agronomic potential of dual‐use winter‐hardy peas in Northern New England: Cold tolerance and production challenges for harvestable cover cropping peas

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract Cover crops play a significant role in improving and maintaining good soil quality. However, there are often some agronomic and cost challenges associated with successfully establishing cover crops. In Northeastern regions of the United States, abiotic stressors such as cold affect and high costs limit uptake of the practice.

Resistance of Oil‐Infused PDMS with Different Macroporosities Against Bacterial Attachment

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 12, Issue 22, November 22, 2025.
In this study, a series of environmentally benign, nonfluorinated liquid paraffin‐infused porous PDMS networks with varying porosities is created. By introducing different homogenous and heterogenous bulk structures and varying interfacial roughness by sugar and salt templating, the role of porosity and oil availability on the resistance against ...

The music of Hamish MacCunn (1868-1916): a critical study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Apart from a single study of Jeanie Deans, MacCunn's music has, to date, never received a detailed examination. This thesis aims to provide a contextual basis for, and a stylistic analysis of, his major works, and so establish informed criteria by which ...

Breeding for cold tolerance in common annual legume cover crops

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 65, Issue 3, May/June 2025.
Abstract There has been a significant increase in cover crop adoption, with land use nearly doubling over the last decade. Winter legume cover crops provide several ecosystem services, such as weed suppression and reducing soil erosion, while serving as an excellent nitrogen source for subsequent cash crops.
