The Ligon lintless-2 Short Fiber Mutation Is Located within a Terminal Deletion of Chromosome 18 in Cotton<sup>1</sup>
(
American Society of Plant Biologists
, 2020 , Article)
Extreme elongation distinguishes about one-fourth of cotton (Gossypium sp.) seed epidermal cells as “lint” fibers, useful for the textile industry, from “fuzz” fibers (,5 mm). Ligon lintless-2 (Li2), a dominant mutation ...
Foraging and habitat use of eastern cottontails (Sylvilagus floridanus) in an urban landscape
(
Springer Nature
, 2015 , Article)
Urban landscapes such as college campuses, arboretums, and backyards provide excellent habitats for education and research into animal behavior. We investigated aspects of the foraging activity of free-ranging Eastern ...
Seasonal variability of hydrography off the east coast of Qatar, central Arabian Gulf
(
Springer Nature
, 2022 , Article)
Seasonal variability of hydrography along a nearshore-offshore transect in the eastern part of the EEZ of Qatar has been analyzed using in situ measurements carried out during 5 different months. The study reveals distinct ...
Unveiling Tetraselmis subcordiformis lipidome dynamics during large-scale cultivation in open raceway pond
(
Springer Nature
, 2024 , Article)
A local microalgal strain of Tetraselmis subcordiformis was cultivated at large-scale using open raceway pond. The temporal influence on the growth and lipidomic profile of the strain was investigated using optic density ...
Differential survival of nursery-reared Acropora cervicornis outplants along the Florida reef tract
(
Wiley-Blackwell
, 2020 , Article)
In recent decades, the Florida reef tract has lost over 95% of its coral cover. Although isolated coral assemblages persist, coral restoration programs are attempting to recover local coral populations. Listed as threatened ...
Assessing uncertainty in sighting records: An example of the Barbary lion
(
PeerJ
, 2015 , Article)
As species become rare and approach extinction, purported sightings can be controversial, especially when scarce management resources are at stake.We consider the probability that each individual sighting of a series is ...
Optimal sampling design for spatial capture–recapture
(
Wiley-Blackwell
, 2020 , Article)
Spatial capture–recapture (SCR) has emerged as the industry standard for estimating population density by leveraging information from spatial locations of repeat encounters of individuals. The precision of density estimates ...
Effect of soil moisture on the response of soil respiration to open-field experimental warming and precipitation manipulation
(
Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI)
, 2017 , Article)
Soil respiration (RS, Soil CO2 efflux) is the second largest carbon (C) flux in global terrestrial ecosystems, and thus, plays an important role in global and regional C cycling; moreover, it acts as a feedback mechanism ...
Microalgae: A potential bioagent for treatment of emerging contaminants from domestic wastewater
(
Elsevier
, 2024 , Article)
Water crisis around the world leads to a growing interest in emerging contaminants (ECs) that can affect human health and the environment. Research showed that thousands of compounds from domestic consumers, such as endocrine ...
