A Sugarcane G-Protein-Coupled Receptor, ShGPCR1, Confers Tolerance to Multiple Abiotic Stresses
Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) is a prominent source of sugar and serves as bioenergy/biomass feedstock globally. Multiple biotic and abiotic stresses, including drought, salinity, and cold, adversely affect sugarcane yield.

Mycobiome of the Bat White Nose Syndrome (WNS) Affected Caves and Mines reveals High Diversity of Fungi and Local Adaptation by the Fungal Pathogen Pseudogymnoascus (Geomyces) destructans [PDF]
The investigations of the bat White Nose Syndrome (WNS) have yet to provide answers as to how the causative fungus Pseudogymnoascus (Geomyces) destructans (Pd) first appeared in the Northeast and how a single clone has spread rapidly in the US and Canada. We aimed to catalogue Pd and all other fungi (mycobiome) by the culture-dependent (CD) and culture-

Physiological and Proteomic Analyses of Saccharum spp. Grown under Salt Stress
Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) is the world most productive sugar producing crop, making an understanding of its stress physiology key to increasing both sugar and ethanol production. To understand the behavior and salt tolerance mechanisms of sugarcane, two cultivars commonly used in Brazilian agriculture, RB867515 and RB855536, were submitted to salt ...

Senescent trees stabilize aboveground wood net primary production immediately after disturbance [PDF]
In the United States, forests sequester 17% of national carbon (C) emissions annually (UGCRP, 2018), however shifting forest disturbances threaten the stability of this essential C sink.

The North American river otter Lontra canadensis is a semi‐aquatic furbearer species that historically ranged throughout North America. Starting in the mid‐1800s and continuing through the early 1900s, the negative effects associated with anthropogenic disturbances (i.e.

At different growth stages, weeds present different sensitivities to herbicides. Thus, the registered herbicide rate may be reduced under specific conditions, while maintaining satisfactory weed control.

Abundance of spiders and species richness increased from the ground level to the canopy in oak forests. Spiders with some specific ecological traits in the sample (such as hunting strategy, dispersal ability, occurrence and light requirements) are specifically distributed in the vertical direction.

ANALYSIS OF TIMES AND EFFICIENCIES OF THE MECHANIZED HARVEST OF SUGARCANE (Saccharum spp.)
Sugarcane culture directed to sugar mills is of great economic and social importance in Brazil. Harvesters are the most important equipment in the sugarcane mechanized harvesting system, since the production process in sugar mills depends on machine operating performance, which is directly related to field efficiency.

Using longitudinal survival probabilities to test field vigour estimates in sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) [PDF]
Tree mortality is a major force driving forest dynamics. To foresters, however, tree mortality is often considered a loss in productivity. To reduce tree mortality, silvicultural systems, such as selection cuts, aim at removing trees that are more likely

Does habitat or climate change drive species range shifts?
A primary prediction of climate change ecology is that species will track their climate niche poleward and upslope. However, studies have shown species responding in surprising ways. In this study, we aim to understand the impact of global change on species ranges by considering both climate and habitat changes.
