Using phenology to improve invasive plant detection in fine‐scale hyperspectral drone‐based images

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Using drone‐based hyperspectral images of mixed temperate successional forests collected over a growing season, detection algorithms were produced for three invasive species of interest, which are not only invasive in Virginia but also much of the U.S.: Ailanthus altissima (tree of heaven), Elaeagnus umbellata (autumn olive), and Rhamnus davurica ...

Field resistance of orange fruit to citrus black spot and citrus canker in D-limonene synthase downregulated trees. [PDF]

Pest Manag Sci
Genetically modified (GM) sweet‐oranges with downregulated CitMTSE1 gene showed reduced citrus black spot severity and citrus canker incidence, confirming terpene modulation as a promising strategy for sustainable field citrus disease resistance. Abstract BACKGROUND Citrus black spot (CBS), caused by Phyllosticta citricarpa, and citrus canker (CC ...

Quantifying Structural Complexity, Effort, and Performance: An Early Experiment Using Network Design Tasks

Systems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Structural Complexity is perceived as driving cost in system development, yet managing it effectively requires empirical understanding. This study investigates human decision‐making using a toy transportation‐style network design task, focusing on how Structural Complexity, Effort, and Performance interact. Seventy‐four participants (primarily

Feeding Management of African Rhinos (Ceratotherium simum, Diceros bicornis) in European Zoos

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
The average estimated diets (in % dry matter) of white rhinos (C. simum) and black rhinos (D. bicornis) in European zoos differ in the proportion of (pelleted) compound feed and other non‐forage items. The reason for this difference is elusive but possibly related to creating more complicated diets for browsers. ABSTRACT White rhinos (WR, Ceratotherium

A reappraisal of the Middle to Later Stone Age prehistory of Morocco Réévaluer la préhistoire du Maroc, du Middle Stone Age au Later Stone Age

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Over the last 25 years, perceptions of the early prehistory of Northwest Africa have undergone radical changes due to new fieldwork projects and a corresponding growth in scientific interest in the region. Much of this work has been focused in Morocco, known for its extremely rich fossil and archaeological records in caves and rock shelters.

From Tobacco to Ultraprocessed Food: How Industry Engineering Fuels the Epidemic of Preventable Disease

The Milbank Quarterly, EarlyView.
Policy Points Ultraprocessed foods (UPFs) are engineered to heighten reward and accelerate delivery of reinforcing ingredients, driving compulsive consumption and disrupting appetite regulation. This is a growing challenge for health policy. UPFs share key engineering strategies adopted from the tobacco industry, such as dose optimization and hedonic ...

The agency of a marmalade machine: Gender, class and mechanical gadgets in the British Kitchen, c.1870–1938

Gender &History, EarlyView.
Abstract This article explores the marmalade machine, a mechanical device designed to slice orange peel. These niche objects were manufactured between roughly 1870 and 1938 in Britain. As a so‐called ‘labour‐saving’ gadget, the marmalade machine sliced orange peel quickly and effectively, removing the tedious process of slicing orange peel by hand ...

Analysis of plant and environmental samples for the quarantine fungus Phyllosticta citricarpa in four European citrus‐growing areas

Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
Methodologies for the early detection of Phyllosticta citricarpa in air and rainwater samples were developed and applied over three consecutive years (2018–2021) in four European citrus sites, previously reported to harbour the pathogen. Phyllosticta citricarpa was not detected in plant, air, or rainwater samples, and no CBS symptoms were observed on ...
