Conservation practitioners face the complex challenge of addressing global biodiversity threats within social-ecological systems with multiple jurisdictions, numerous interest groups, and changing environmental conditions. Bridging the research-to-implementation gap between scientists and managers, which integrates diverse perspectives that represent the variety of considerations impacting management outcomes can help to infor...
Coral acclimatization to novel, co-varying stressors is associated with fitness trade-offsNARA Subscribed
Reef-building corals are under pressure to acclimatize and/or adapt to multiple co-occurring stressors, including climate change and declines in water quality. However, their capacity to do so is largely unknown. Yet, some corals naturally persist in habitats with multi-stressor conditions which can provide crucial insight into coral adaptive capacity under future ocean conditions. To assess the role of phenotypic plasticity a...
The Impact of a Community Partner Research Training ProgramNARA Subscribed
As part of its mission to address disparities in cancer outcomes and research participation, the Philadelphia Communities Conquering Cancer (PC3) coalition conducted a Community Partner Research Training program. The goal was to increase knowledge about cancer research and to prepare community members to partner on research activities. Eighteen out of 36 applicants were selected for a 5-week training program on research method...
Dune Russet (COTX08063-2Ru) is the first French fry russet potato cultivar released by the Texas A&M Potato Breeding Program. It derives from a cross made by the Colorado State University Potato Program between Premier Russet and A99073-1 and was subsequently selected and advanced by the Texas Program. Dune Russet has oblong potato tubers with light russet skin texture and white flesh. It is characterized by having excellent F...
Probing the influence of PsbS on thylakoid lipid fluidityNARA Subscribed
Due to fluctuations in sunlight intensity, balancing light-harvesting efficiency and photoprotection is critical for plant fitness. To achieve this balance, plants have evolved a highly regulated mechanism, non-photochemical quenching (NPQ), which is activated under excess light to dissipate absorbed energy and deactivated under low light to preserve photosynthetic efficiency. A key component that allows NPQ to respond rapidly...
Earth's biodiversity is central to ecosystem health and resilience, providing essential functions and services. The Red Sea is a recognised marine biodiversity hotspot with high endemism and unique environmental conditions that support extensive but poorly resolved biodiversity. Here, we applied metagenomic analyses to sediment samples collected from coastal to deep‐sea environments during the Red Sea Decade Expedition 2022 to...
Despite extensive conservation efforts worldwide, biodiversity loss continues, particularly in tropical regions. It is, therefore, essential to develop biodiversity monitoring methods that can be effectively scaled up in both time and space, enabling wildlife managers to quickly assess and respond to changes in populations or communities. We explored the effectiveness of combining camera traps with acoustic methods to survey s...
Cottus aleuticus (coastrange sculpin) is one of two North American facultatively amphidromous sculpins, but habitat use during its planktonic larval stage is poorly documented. We analysed strontium isotopes ( 88 Sr and 87 Sr/ 86 Sr) in otoliths of 10 adult C. aleuticus from a small coastal California stream. All showed elevated 88 Sr signal intensities in the otolith core and a marine 87 Sr/ 86 Sr value in the core that rapid...
