Wildlife underpass use with gaps in exclusion fences along a 4‐lane highway 15 years post‐construction

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Wildlife exclusion fence maintenance is often neglected, and post‐construction studies generally focus on crossing structures. When exclusion fencing is left unattended, gaps can develop, creating the potential for more wildlife‐vehicle collisions. Our study emphasizes the importance of long‐term monitoring and maintenance of wildlife crossings and ...

Determination of the grapevine virome by high-throughput sequencing and grapevine viruses detection in Serra Gaúcha, Brazil

Revista Ceres
Among grapevine (Vitis spp.) pathogens, viruses stand out, considering that this fruit plant is broadly susceptible to them and that they cause several diseases, reducing quality and yield of grape production.

Fungal endophytes of wild and hybrid Vitis leaves and their potential for vineyard biocontrol.

Canadian Journal of Microbiology (print), 2017
Plants are colonized by diverse assemblages of fungal endophytes that have potential as biocontrol agents for a variety of crops, including grapevine.

Vision at high latitudes: High sensitivity without specific boreal adaptations in photoreception in reindeer (Rangifer tarandus L.)

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The light climate at high latitudes, in particular the extended twilight of winter and the reduced diel variation in light level in midsummer and midwinter, potentially constrains visual function and the synchronisation of temporal organisation in polar species. In this

Digital Morphometrics of Two North American Grapevines (Vitis: Vitaceae) Quantifies Leaf Variation between Species, within Species, and among Individuals

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Recent studies have demonstrated that grapevine (Vitis spp.) leaf shape can be quantified using digital approaches which indicate phylogenetic signal in leaf shape, discernible patterns of developmental context within single leaves, and signatures of ...

Drivers of phenological transitions in the seedling life stage

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant functional ecology research has primarily focused on juvenile and adult plants even though regeneration from seed can be the most consequential life‐history bottleneck with cascading influence on later stages of growth and reproduction.

Nitrogen inputs and irrigation frequency influence population dynamics of Mesocriconema xenoplax under grapevines

Journal of Nematology, 2019
Nitrogen (N) fertilization and irrigation are critical for tree fruit and grape production in semi-arid regions of Western North America. Growers are increasingly considering more conservative fertilization and irrigation practices in order to optimize ...

Bioaccumulation of heavy metals and ecophysiological responses to heavy metal stress in selected populations of Vaccinium myrtillus L. and Vaccinium vitis-idaea L

Ecotoxicology, 2017
The aim of this study was to determine the concentrations of heavy metals (Cd, Pb, Zn, Fe, and Mn) in soil, and their bioavailability and bioaccumulation in Vaccinium myrtillus L. and Vaccinium vitis-idaea L. organs.

Differential phenolic production of Vitis vinifera cv. Alvarinho leaves affected with Esca disease [PDF]

, 2006
Esca is a destructive disease that affects Vitis vinifera around the world leading to important losses in wine production. Information on the response of Vitis vinifera plants to this disease is still scarce.

Synteny analysis in Rosids with a walnut physical map reveals slow genome evolution in long-lived woody perennials. [PDF]

, 2015
BackgroundMutations often accompany DNA replication. Since there may be fewer cell cycles per year in the germlines of long-lived than short-lived angiosperms, the genomes of long-lived angiosperms may be diverging more slowly than those of short-lived ...
