Abstract Firms may under‐ or over‐invest in risk management from the social planner's perspective, resulting in a negative externality on other economic agents in the supply chain. The externality of risk management is particularly relevant for agrifood supply chains, which frequently experience disruptions and play a primary role in preventing major ...

Heterosis in crosses between remnant populations of the rare prairie forb Silene regia: Implications for restoration genetics

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Calls to adopt seed‐sourcing strategies in biological restoration that preserve local adaptation while maximizing genetic variation (e.g., regional admixture provenancing) are increasingly common. Heterosis, the increased fitness of progeny from crosses between populations relative to progeny from crosses within populations, could ...
