Selection and plasticity both account for interannual variation in life-history phenology in an annual prairie legume. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2020
Our study is a phenotypic selection analysis of total lifetime fitness in a natural selective prairie environment. We compare the predicted and observed phenotypic response, taking care to account for the effect of year‐to‐year variation. We observe a change in mean flowering time that is consistent with the direction of selection when accounting for ...

Biological invasions: a global assessment of geographic distributions, long-term trends, and data gaps. [PDF]

Biol Rev Camb Philos Soc
ABSTRACT Biological invasions are one of the major drivers of biodiversity decline and have been shown to have far‐reaching consequences for society and the economy. Preventing the introduction and spread of alien species represents the most effective solution to reducing their impacts on nature and human well‐being.

Pest categorisation of non-EU Cicadomorpha vectors of Xylella spp. [PDF]

EFSA J, 2019
Abstract The Panel on Plant Health performed a group pest categorisation of non‐EU Cicadomorpha vectors of Xylella spp. known to be associated with plant diseases. Although all the insects considered in this categorisation are proven vectors of Xylella spp., additional vectors within the order Hemiptera most probably exist but have not been associated ...

Aspirin resistance and promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis: current situation and prospectives. [PDF]

Evid Based Complement Alternat Med, 2014
Aspirin plays a crucial physiological and pathophysiological role in cardiovascular diseases and cerebrovascular diseases by irreversibly inhibiting thromboxane A2. However, some patients may be “resistant” to its effect. The resistance has close association with adverse cardiovascular outcomes and increased mortality, so that resolving the problem of ...

The Profertility and Aphrodisiac Activities of Tribulus terrestris L.: Evidence from Meta‐Analyses

Andrologia, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Tribulus terrestris L. (TT) is a traditional medicinal plant, which belongs to the Zygophyllaceae family. TT extracts have been widely used for diuretic, analeptic, aphrodisiac, and profertility properties. To quantitatively evaluate the profertility and aphrodisiac effects of Tribulus terrestris L., we undertook the present meta‐analyses on published ...

Spring‐planted cover crop effects on weed suppression, crop yield, and net returns in no‐tillage dryland crop production

Crop Science, Volume 62, Issue 5, Page 1981-1996, September/October 2022., 2022
Abstract Integrating cover crops (CCs) into dryland crop rotations could provide options for herbicide‐resistant (HR) weed control in no‐tillage (NT) systems. Field experiments investigated weed suppression potential of spring‐planted CCs and their effects on plant available water, crop yields, and net returns. The CC treatments were implemented during

Auxin‐based herbicide program for weed control in auxin resistant soybean

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 5, Issue 4, 2022., 2022
Abstract Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] cultivars resistant to synthetic auxin herbicides have provided another mode of action for the postemergence broadleaf weed control. This field study was conducted at three South Dakota locations [Northeast, NERF; east‐central, ARF; and Southeast, SERF) in 2019 and two locations (ARF and SERF) in 2020.
