Documenting biodiversity with digital data: comparing and contrasting the efficacy of specimen‐based and observation‐based approaches

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Digitized herbarium specimens and iNaturalist observations provide invaluable plant biodiversity data. Combining these two data sources could create a more holistic representation of local biodiversity; however, understanding biases inherent to each is critical to determine how to best combine and utilize these data.

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Heat treatment duration affects in vitro‐induced photosynthetic impairment and development of necrotic leaf tissue in three Mediterranean oak species

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Longer lasting heat treatment durations induced photosynthetic impairment at lower temperatures and caused the development of proportionally more necrotic tissue at lower temperatures in leaves of three Mediterranean oak species. Abstract Short heat treatments are commonly used to estimate the leaf‐level thermal tolerance of tree species. The effect of

Kiwifruit bacterial canker in 'Hayward' kiwifruit : the application of observational study design and epidemiological techniques to the study of disease outbreaks affecting plant health : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Veterinary Epidemiology, Institute of Veterinary, Animal and Biomedical Sciences at Massey University, Manawatu, New Zealand [PDF]

, 2017
Bacterial canker of kiwifruit, caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa) biovar 3, was first recorded in New Zealand in November 2010 and quickly made production of the goldfleshed kiwifruit cultivar, ‘Hort16A’, which is highly susceptible to

Mycorrhizal specificity of fully mycoheterotrophic Yoania in Taiwan and China and novel natural abundance stable isotope patterns

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Three species of the mycoheterotrophic orchid genus Yoania found in Taiwan and China are associated with a single taxonomic unit of white‐rot fungus from the genus Physisporinus and exhibit a stable isotope pattern distinct from other fully mycoheterotrophic (FMH) orchids associated with wood‐decaying fungi.

Rootstock on vine performance and wine quality of ‘Syrah’ under double pruning management

Scientia Agricola
In the Brazilian Southeast, the production of high quality wines is attained by a new management approach called double pruning. This management changes the harvesting of wine grape (Vitis vinifera L.) from wet summer to dry winter through a two pruning ...

Organ‐specific terpenoid responses in Tanacetum vulgare are chemotype‐dependent

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Common tansy varieties defend differently: some boost root chemicals against soil pests, while others release stronger leaf scents against aphids. Abstract Specialized metabolites such as terpenoids are known to mediate plant defence mechanisms. However, how terpenoid diversity governs inducible chemistry across organs remains poorly understood.

Optimal detection of changepoints with a linear computational cost

, 2012
We consider the problem of detecting multiple changepoints in large data sets. Our focus is on applications where the number of changepoints will increase as we collect more data: for example in genetics as we analyse larger regions of the genome, or in ...

Summer Pruning of Greenhouse-grown Roses under Subtropical Conditions

HortScience, 1986
Abstract Height and time of summer pruning of greenhouse-grown ‘Mercedes’ roses were examined for effect on flower production in the subsequent season. The interaction of pruning severity and the flower cutting procedure also was tested. It was found that pruning in mid-July is preferable to mid-May and that severe (50 cm) pruning combined with ...
