Constitutive and insect‐induced transcriptomes of weevil‐resistant and susceptible Sitka spruce
Spruce weevil (Pissodes strobi) is a significant pest of regenerating spruce (Picea) and pine (Pinus) forests in North America. Weevil larvae feed in the bark, phloem, cambium, and outer xylem of apical shoots, causing stunted growth or mortality of ...

We show the theory of pointed $\R$-trees with radius at most $r$ is axiomatizable in a suitable continuous signature. We identify the model companion $\rbRT_r$ of this theory and study its properties. In particular, the model companion is complete and has quantifier elimination; it is stable but not superstable.

A note on r-equitable k-colorings of trees [PDF]
A graph G = (V;E) is r-equitably k-colorable if there exists a partition of V into k independent sets V1, V2,... Vk such that ||Vi|- |Vj|| ≤ r for all i,j {1,2... k}.

On the Extremal Trees for Some Bond Incident Degree Indices with a Fixed Number of Segments
The Gourava indices and hyper-Gourava indices are introduced by Kulli in 2017. These graph invariants are related to the degree of vertices of a graph G. Let Tn,r be the class of all n−vertex chemical trees with r segments. In this paper, we characterize

Dynamic changes in rhizosphere bacterial communities of Rhododendron simsii at different growth stages [PDF]
Rhododendron simsii plays important roles in maintaining ecological system stability in the north temperate zone. However, its natural growth is greatly affected by soil microorganisms, particularly rhizosphere microbes.

Species divergence and phylogenetic variation of ecophysiological traits in lianas and trees. [PDF]
The climbing habit is an evolutionary key innovation in plants because it is associated with enhanced clade diversification. We tested whether patterns of species divergence and variation of three ecophysiological traits that are fundamental for plant ...

Constructing Multivariate Survival Trees: The MST Package for R
Multivariate survival trees require few statistical assumptions, are easy to interpret, and provide meaningful diagnosis and prediction rules. Trees can handle a large number of predictors with mixed types and do not require predictor variable ...
