The North American fur trade fundamentally shifted baselines of furbearing mammals worldwide. Using camera traps and visual surveys, we document unexpected ecological and behavioral characteristics of a population of muskrats (Ondatra zibethicus) that was likely introduced to the Isles of Shoals (Maine/New Hampshire, USA) in the early 1900s.

Effects of CPPU Applications on Southern Highbush Blueberries [PDF]
Greenhouse and field experiments were conducted to determine the effects of the growth regulator N-(2-chloro-4-pyridyl)-N′-phenylurea (CPPU) on fruit set, berry size, and yield of southern highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum hybrids). The experiments were conducted over a period of several years in Georgia and Florida.

Abstract Non‐crop floral resources in agricultural areas play an important role in supporting crop pollinating taxa and increasing biodiversity. We studied flower‐insect interactions to two spring flowering crops and accompanying non‐crop flowering resources (introduced/native) in apple and blueberry orchards in southern Tasmania, Australia, to (i ...

Natural and Artificial Chilling of Southern Highbush Blueberry [PDF]
A study was initiated in November, 2002 to determine the effects of exposing two Southern Highbush blueberries (Vaccinium corybosum L) to artificial chilling hours on initiation of bud break and advancement of floral and vegetative bud maturity. Plants of `Jubilee' and `Misty' were divided into 2 groups in which one was left outdoors, allowing chilling

A consumer‐oriented approach to define breeding targets for molecular breeding
Summary Flavor is a crucial aspect of the eating experience, reflecting evolving consumer preferences for fruits with enhanced quality. Modern fruit breeding programs prioritize improving quality traits aligned with consumer tastes. However, defining fruit‐quality attributes that significantly impact consumer preference is a current challenge faced by ...
