Benefits of Resveratrol and Pterostilbene to Crops and Their Potential Nutraceutical Value to Mammals

open access: yesAgriculture, 2022
Resveratrol and its dimethoxylated derivative, pterostilbene, are produced by several plant species, including a few edible crops such as peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.), grapes (Vitis spp.), and blueberries (Vaccinium spp.), as well some plants used in ...

Forest and fire drive moose (deníe) detections near their northern range limit

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
One way to understand species range shifts in response to anthropogenic climate change is to study populations living at the limit of climate and resource suitability. Moose Alces alces (deníe in Dënesųłıné) generally require forest–wetland landscape complexes but are increasingly seen across the forest–tundra transition at their northern range limit ...

Prey Partitioning in a Diverse Carnivore Community: Implications for Reintroduced Fishers in Washington

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Using fecal DNA metabarcoding, we quantified dietary overlap among reintroduced fishers and sympatric coyotes, bobcats, and Pacific martens in Washington's North Cascades. Niche overlap was substantial for common prey but varied with body size, revealing fine‐scale resource partitioning that may limit fishers' access to energetically efficient prey ...

Influence of light and temperature conditions on anthocyanin accumulation in Vaccinium spp. Berries

open access: yes, 2016
Anthocyanins are the main pigments in the Vaccinium berries. Besides contributing the characteristic bluish to reddish colors of the berries, anthocyanins are also recognized as potential health beneficial compounds.

Modern pollen rain of an upland area: implications of pollen dispersal for interpreting palaeoenvironmental records

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
A long‐term perspective on landscape evolution is critical for understanding past land‐use activity, land cover–climate feedbacks and, notably, for establishing a factual basis for conservation. Fossil pollen analysis provides a means to achieve this. Biases pertaining to pollen productivity, pollination processes and basin size, however, mean there is

Yield and morphological responses of wild blueberry (vaccinium spp.) to forest harvesting and conifer release treatments [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
This thesis synthesizes three papers on the effects of forestry practices on the growth and fruit production of lowbush (V. angustifolium) and velvet leaf (V.

Metabarcoding of Pollen Carried by Syrphids Reveals Novel Plant–Pollinator Interactions in a Protected Natural Area and Agricultural Sites

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Using DNA metabarcoding, this study investigates pollen transported by syrphids (Syrphidae) in the Dolomiti Bellunesi National Park and agricultural sites in Northern Italy. The analysis reveals a high diversity of visited plant taxa, including previously undocumented plant–pollinator interactions.
