Ecology Letters, Volume 26, Issue S1, Page S127-S139, September 2023., 2023 Theoretically, eco‐evolutionary dynamics mediated by changes in trait variation could be as important as those mediated by changes in trait means. Yet, no study has comprehensively summarised how phenotypic variation is changing in contemporary populations facing human disturbances.

The influence of postfire recovery and environmental conditions on boreal vegetation
Ecosphere, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2023., 2023 Abstract Climate change is increasing the frequency and extent of fires in the boreal biome of North America. These changes can alter the recovery of both canopy and understory vegetation. There is uncertainty about plant and lichen recovery patterns following fire, and how they are mediated by environmental conditions.

Ecological Applications, Volume 33, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Indigenous land stewardship and mixed‐severity fire regimes both promote landscape heterogeneity, and the relationship between them is an emerging area of research. In our study, we reconstructed the historical fire regime of Ne Sextsine, a 5900‐ha dry, Douglas fir–dominated forest in the traditional territory of the T'exelc (Williams Lake ...

Germination of Western Soapberry as Affected by Scarification and Stratification [PDF]
HortScience, 1984 Abstract Western soapberry (Sapindus drummondii Hook & Arn.) seeds were collected in Sept. 1982 and scarified with acid or hot water, or treated by freezing. The seeds were sown immediately or after cold-moist stratification for 90 days. Best germination was achieved with acid scarified and stratified seeds followed by hot water treatment plus ...

Berries as a case study for crop wild relative conservation, use, and public engagement in Canada
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 4, Issue 6, Page 558-578, November 2022., 2022 Plant biodiversity is fundamental to the future of food security and agriculture. Berries are the most economically important fruit crops in Canada. Within this article, we explore the nutritional, cultural, and botanical importance of berries, including crop wild relatives (plant species that are closely related to domesticated crops) and plants that ...

GeoHealth, Volume 6, Issue 11, November 2022., 2022 Abstract Indigenous Peoples in Northwestern North America have always worked with predictable cycles of day and night, tides, moon phases, seasons, and species growth and reproduction, including such phenological indicators as the blooming of flowers and the songs of birds. Negotiating variability has been constant in people's lives.

Pest risk assessment of Amyelois transitella for the European Union
EFSA Journal, Volume 20, Issue 11, November 2022., 2022 Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest risk assessment of Amyelois transitella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), the navel orangeworm, for the EU. The quantitative assessment considered two scenarios: (i) current practices and (ii) a requirement for chilled transport. The assessment focused on
