Effectiveness of Scientific Literacy and Communication E‐Modules in a Molecular Biology Course: A Qualitative and Quantitative Analysis

open access: yesBiochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In previous work, we described the development and implementation of new pedagogical practices aimed at enhancing literacy, critical thinking, and communication skills development in a third‐year undergraduate molecular biology course. The online nature and large size of the course presented challenges regarding student engagement and access ...

Mid‐Domain Effect and Wooded Habitat Shape Mediterranean Reptile Communities

open access: yesBiological Diversity, EarlyView.
Analyzing a large number of reptiles observed across protected areas in Central Italy, we tested whether the mid‐domain effect explains hump‐shaped richness–elevation patterns. Species richness was best predicted by the combined influence of geometric constraints and woodland cover, revealing two contrasting species clusters and offering a robust ...

Influence of bioactive compounds on elements of winter hardiness of bread winter wheat

open access: yesMyronivka Bulletin, 2016
Aim. To investigate the effect of bioactive compounds regulating different ways of metabolism on elements of winter hardiness in bread winter wheat varieties with different levels of this trait.Material and methods. The influence of bioactive compounds detergent Triton X-100 that causes deproteinization of cell membranes and therefore reduces their ...

Adaptive Genomic Divergence Across Altitudes in Capsella bursa‐pastoris

open access: yesBiological Diversity, EarlyView.
Genomic divergence was observed between high‐altitude and low‐altitude populations of Capsella bursa‐pastoris in China, consistent with an important role of ecological factors. Candidate adaptive loci associated with enhanced energy metabolism, photoprotection, and growth plasticity under altitudinal stress were identified.

COMPARISON OF METHODS FOR OBTAINING GENETIC DIVERSITY FOR BREEDING WINTER-HARDY WHEAT IN SIBERIA

open access: yesВавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2014
High winter hardiness requires two features: (1) a duration of deep rest comparable to the duration of wintering and (2) high frost resistance. An interdisciplinary approach to studying the mechanisms governing the formation of winter hardiness permits ...

Orchardgrass (1993) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.) is a bunch-type, tall-growing, cool-season perennial grass. It is one of the most productive cool-season grasses, tolerant to shade, fairly drought resistant with moderate winter hardiness.

Density Estimates of Endangered Endemic Rodents Suggest Broader Impacts of Invasive Burmese Pythons Following a Category 4 Hurricane in the Florida Keys

open access: yesBiological Diversity, EarlyView.
Density estimates of two endangered rodent subspecies, endemic to Key Largo, Florida, USA. These findings illustrate the contrasting dynamics of two native species associated with the prevalence of invasive Burmese pythons and global change. The woodrats' decline emphasizes its potential risk of extinction as global change continues to impact island ...

Housing Warmth/Coolness and Quietness Correlate With Whole‐Brain Fractional Anisotropy in Healthy Adults

open access: yesBrain Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Residential environments have been linked to brain structure, particularly in children, older adults, and clinical populations. However, little is known about how different dimensions of the housing environment relate to brain white matter microstructure in healthy adults, or whether specific environmental factors show stronger ...

Senior Thesis ST 2011-02 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Agriculture in the Arctic is often limited by the low receipt of heat energy, which is often measured in growing degree days (GDD). With the advent of increasingly powerful climate modeling, projection and downscaling techniques, it is becoming ...
