American Ethnologist, 2022
AbstractIn South Lebanon, war is lived as landscape, environment, milieu. Those pursuing life in such quarters do what they can to make‐live, and their lifelines are often as vitalizing as they are deadly: tobacco farmers ally themselves with what they call a “bitter crop” that flourishes in an arid war zone, while pastoralists walk in explosive fields

Ecology and evolution of antibiotic resistance
Environmental Microbiology Reports, 2009Summary The evolution of bacterial pathogens towards antibiotic resistance is not just a relevant problem for human health, but a fascinating example of evolution that can be studied in real time as well. Although most antibiotics are natural compounds produced by environmental microbiota, exposure of bacterial populations to high ...

Ecological costs of induced resistance [PDF]
Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2002 There has been rapid progress in detecting the genetic or allocation costs of induced resistance. In addition to these 'internal' costs, ecological costs may result from external mechanisms, that is, from the detrimental effects of resistance on the plant's interactions with its environment. All evolutionarily relevant costs affect a plant's ability to

This chapter addresses water and its indelible relationship to life forms. Earth is a blue planet: water comprises more than two thirds of the earth’s surface, and our body mass. Blue, for all its water and life-giving associations, is a melancholy color, a hue of sadness.

This paper begins an inquiry into the subject of resistance. In diffusion theory and in the related field of organizational development, resistance is overdetermined. In other words, the topic is typically glossed and is too easily identified as an automatic, and by nature negative, response to change: a change that is to be managed.

The ecology of mercury-resistant bacteria in Chesapeake Bay
Microbial Ecology, 1974Total ambient mercury concentrations and numbers of mercury resistant, aerobic heterotrophic bacteria at six locations in Chesapeake Bay were monitored over a 17 month period. Mercury resistance expressed as the proportion of the total, viable, aerobic, heterotrophic bacterial population reached a reproducible maximum in spring and was positively ...

The ecology and evolution of host-plant resistance to insects
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1990Genetic techniques have yielded new insights into plant-herbivore coevolution. Quantitative genetic tests of herbivory theory reveal that in some cases insect herbivores impose selection on resistance traits. Also, some resistance traits are costly while others appear not to be, and genetic models can explain these results.

Abstract This chapter argues that ecological resistance started in the early 1970s as part of the movement culture of the “new social movements.” It involved an emphasis on transgressive strategies and/or tactics and a systemic perspective on nature, as well as the implication that systemic change was needed to address environmental ...
