Transposable Element‐Mediated Structural Variation Drives Flower Colour Diversification in Camellia
ABSTRACT The role of transposable elements (TEs) in genome evolution and phenotypic diversification in Camellia remains poorly understood. Here, we present an integrated analysis of genome resequencing data from 237 Camellia accessions and 11 de novo genome assemblies representing all major floral colour types.

Mesquite pod meal in elephant grass silages - doi: 10.4025/actascianimsci.v35i3.12506
This study evaluated the chemical composition and in vitro dry matter digestibility (IVDMD) of elephant grass silages at different growth stages (70, 90 and 110 days), with the addition (0, 5, 10 and 15%, on a fresh matter basis) of mesquite pod meal.

An assessment of the impact of water impoundment and diversion structures on vegetation in Southern Arizona [PDF]
High-altitude color infrared photography was used to survey existing conditions, both upstream and downstream, from nineteen diversion structures in Southern Arizona to determine their effect upon vegetation health, vigor, and cover.

Evolution of sociality in Anelosimus Spiders [PDF]
Most spiders are solitary and aggressive towards cohorts, but some have been found to live in groups and forage communally, even sharing in brood care. The benefits of group living outweigh the costs of inbreeding for these spiders, but how sociality has
