Upstate Abundance is a fresh market white-fleshed potato cultivar with resistance to both pathotypes Ro1 and Ro2 of the golden cyst nematode ( Globodera rostochiensis ) as well as to late blight ( Phytophthora infestans ) lineage US-23. It was selected from a cross made at Cornell University in 2000 between the Cornell breeding clone NY121 and the fresh-market cultivar Jacqueline Lee and released by the New York Agricultural E...
Understanding and managing the response of marine ecosystems to human pressures including climate change requires reliable large-scale and multi-decadal information on the state of key populations. These populations include the pelagic animals that support ecosystem services including carbon export and fisheries. The use of research vessels to collect information using scientific nets and acoustics is being replaced with techn...
Common, low-frequency, rare, and ultra-rare coding variants contribute to COVID-19 severityNARA Subscribed
The combined impact of common and rare exonic variants in COVID-19 host genetics is currently insufficiently understood. Here, common and rare variants from whole-exome sequencing data of about 4000 SARS-CoV-2-positive individuals were used to define an interpretable machine-learning model for predicting COVID-19 severity. First, variants were converted into separate sets of Boolean features, depending on the absence or the pr...

Global importance of large‐diameter treesNARA Subscribed
Aim To examine the contribution of large‐diameter trees to biomass, stand structure, and species richness across forest biomes. Location Global. Time period Early 21st century. Major taxa studied Woody plants. Methods We examined the contribution of large trees to forest density, richness and biomass using a global network of 48 large (from 2 to 60 ha) forest plots representing 5,601,473 stems across 9,298 species and 210 plan...
Density‐dependent resource selection by a terrestrial herbivore in response to sea‐to‐land nutrient transfer by sealsNARA Subscribed
Sea‐to‐land nutrient transfers can connect marine food webs to those on land, creating a dependence on marine webs by opportunistic species. We show how nitrogen, imported by gray seals, Halichoerus grypus , and traced through stable isotope (δ 15 N) measurements in marram grass , Ammophila breviligulata , significantly alters foraging behavior of a free‐roaming megaherbivore (feral horses, Equus ferus caballus ) on Sable Isla...
Global change is impacting forests worldwide, threatening biodiversity and ecosystem services including climate regulation. Understanding how forests respond is critical to forest conservation and climate protection. This review describes an international network of 59 long‐term forest dynamics research sites ( CTFS ‐Forest GEO ) useful for characterizing forest responses to global change. Within very large plots (median size...
