Methane cycling in temperate forests

Carbon Balance and Management
Temperate forest soils are considered significant methane (CH4) sinks, but other methane sources and sinks within these forests, such as trees, litter, deadwood, and the production of volatile organic compounds are not well understood.

Challenges of Pain in Parkinson's Disease: Results from the OCEAN Study

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Pain is a common non‐motor symptom in Parkinson’s disease (PD) and is often associated to fluctuations. Objective The OpiCapone Effect on motor fluctuations and pAiN (OCEAN) study evaluated the effect of opicapone on fluctuation‐related pain when added to levodopa therapy in PD patients.

Genomic structure and ex situ conservation of the North American grapevine Vitis labrusca

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The North American wild grapevine species Vitis labrusca is an important source of disease resistance and climate resilience traits for breeding new grapevine cultivars. To ensure its continued use in breeding, V. labrusca must be accurately identified and genetically diverse material must be conserved.

Ethnobotanical and genetic assessments of Central American avocado landraces reveal novel sources of biodiversity and ancient migration patterns

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Avocados are a multibillion‐dollar global commodity, but their growing export market pressures local farmers to abandon local fruit tree diversity in favor of commercial cultivar production. Interviews with rural avocado farmers and households from the Southern Mexican Highlands, Pacific Coastal Honduras, and Western Nicaragua, as well as the genetic ...
