Muskrat Island: Behavioral Shifts of an Insular Muskrat (Ondatra zibethicus) Population in the Gulf of Maine

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2025.
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]

open access: yesHortScience, 2007
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.

Both Native and Introduced Non‐Crop Flowering Plants Around Orchards Support Potential Crop Pollinators and Other Beneficial Insects

open access: yesAustral Entomology, Volume 64, Issue 2, May 2025.
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 ...

Morphophysiological Plant Phenotyping for the Development of Plant Breeding Under Drought and Heat Conditions: A Practical Approach

open access: yesFood and Energy Security, Volume 14, Issue 1, January/February 2025.
ABSTRACT Currently, the breeding programs focus their efforts on identifying and developing tolerant genotypes to adverse conditions, such as drought and high temperatures. In this context, the physiological approach, which involves phenotyping several traits, is useful for breeding programs.

Natural and Artificial Chilling of Southern Highbush Blueberry [PDF]

open access: yesHortScience, 2004
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

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 245, Issue 2, Page 711-721, January 2025.
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 ...

Effect of Elicitor Treatments on Quality Attributes in Blueberry: Implications of Cultivar and Environmental Conditions

open access: yesPlants
Elicitors of plant defence responses can trigger defence mechanisms that are able to protect plant tissues from biotic or abiotic stresses. Since one defence response involves the activation of secondary metabolites’ biosynthesis, the purpose of this ...
