Trends in serving size, energy, and selected micronutrients for fast food restaurants in the United States, 1986-2016 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
An integral part of the average American diet, fast food accounted for 4% of total caloric intake in 1977-78; in 2007-10, fast food made up 11% of daily total caloric intake. The same can be said for obesity: approximately 36% of U.S. adults 20 years and

Forward Rapidity Hadron Production in Deuteron Gold Collisions from Valence Quarks

open access: yes, 2004
We consider hadron production in deuteron gold collisions at RHIC in the forward rapidity region. Treating the target nucleus as a Color Glass Condensate and the projectile deuteron as a dilute system of valence quarks, we obtain good agreement with the ...

Connecting tradition and technology: The digitization of the ethnobotanical collection at the Rio de Janeiro Botanical Garden

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The digitization of RBetno (JBRJ) represents a step forward for biodiversity conservation in Brazil. Aligned with the Kunming‐Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (Target 2, 2020–2030), this project documents the use of plants, including traditional knowledge and vernacular names, with a focus on the Atlantic Forest and Amazon.

Photosynthesis rates, growth, and ginsenoside contents of 2-yr-old Panax ginseng grown at different light transmission rates in a greenhouse

open access: yesJournal of Ginseng Research, 2015
Background: Ginseng is a semishade perennial plant cultivated in sloping, sun-shaded areas in Korea. Recently, owing to air-environmental stress and various fungal diseases, greenhouse cultivation has been suggested as an alternative.

Target‐site and non‐target‐site mechanisms confer multiple herbicide resistance in waterhemp (Amaranthus tuberculatus) accessions from Wisconsin

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
The A101 accession is the first confirmed case of hydroxyphenyl pyruvate dioxygenase resistance in Amaranthus tuberculatus in Wisconsin, and the first report of P450s associated with atrazine resistance in A. tuberculatus globally. Abstract BACKGROUND A preliminary screening identified a multiple herbicide‐resistant waterhemp, Amaranthus tuberculatus ...

"Look Mum, no hands!" : the effects of increasing opportunities for choice-making and independence for children with disabilities when using a Riding for the Disabled programme : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Psychology at Massey University [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Many non-disabled people take for granted their ability to choose when they receive help from others. Those with disabilities are often denied this choice, having minimal control over their lives. Increasing literature and research advocate that children

Non‐triazine photosystem II inhibitors provide effective control of metabolic atrazine‐resistant Amaranthus tuberculatus

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Metabolism‐based atrazine‐resistant Amaranthus tuberculatus populations ACR and MCR exhibit little or no cross‐resistance to amicarbazone and metribuzin, suggesting that non‐halogenated Group 5 herbicides can be utilized to re‐establish effective control.

Rhizobacteria regulate colonising Sitobion avenae aphid populations through induced host resistance and alter plant volatiles promoting early parasitoid recruitment on barley (Hordeum vulgare)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Rhizobacterial inoculation of barley reduced Sitobion avenae populations by inducing plant resistance and modifying volatiles that attracted parasitoid wasps earlier, enhancing both bottom‐up and top‐down pest control. Abstract BACKGROUND Soil rhizobacteria can enhance crop resistance to insect herbivores and influence higher trophic interactions ...
