Cold comfort for change: Stream mats as biological indicators of ecosystem processes in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Glacier‐fed streams (GFSs) make ideal systems for studying climate‐related changes. Some of the best‐studied GFSs are found in the McMurdo Dry Valleys (MDVs) of Antarctica, one of the Earth's coldest and driest deserts. Despite their harsh and isolated nature, MDV GFSs represent an oasis of life in a landscape visually devoid of it, with ...

Integrative taxonomy supports DNA barcoding in revealing an abundant cryptic species in the United States Coastal Plain

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
We present the most densely sampled phylogeny of Carex section Lupulinae to date (107 specimens) and describe herein a new cryptic species for science from the southern United States, which is locally abundant and found in well‐explored and densely populated areas. Combining DNA sequences with morphometric data obtained from 299 samples, we Demonstrate

Greater climate change adaptation potential in populations of Quercus macrocarpa at edges of latitudinal gradient

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary With current climate trajectories, tree populations will encounter novel selection pressures that risk local extinction if they are unable to acclimate or adapt. Within a reciprocal transplant experiment with Quercus macrocarpa L. established across a latitudinal gradient, we asked: (1) Is there genetic variation within populations?

Genetic and Phenotypic Diversity of European Triticale: GWAS of Yellow Rust Resistance and Agronomic Traits

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Triticale (x Triticosecale Wittmack) is an interspecific hybrid of wheat and rye. It is a promising grain and forage crop that thrives in poorer soils and low‐input farming systems. It can serve as a viable alternative to traditional small grains such as wheat and barley, bringing diversity to crop rotations and enhancing biodiversity in ...

QTL Mapping of Several Seed Quality Traits in the DH Population NPZ06 × NPZ09 (Brassica napus L.) for Marker‐Assisted Selection

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Enhancing nutritional quality of oilseed rape requires deeper insight into the genetic control of seed quality traits. This study analysed the effect of varying soil phosphorus (P) levels on seed quality traits in the hybrid cultivar Architect. NIRS and laboratory methods were used to quantify total seed P and phytic acid (IP6) content.
