Automating an insect biodiversity metric using distributed optical sensors: an evaluation across Kansas, USA cropping systems

This paper evaluates optical insect sensors for estimating invertebrate species richness in Kansas agricultural fields, finding they correlate better with conventional methods than between conventional methods themselves.

O2 photoreduction at acceptor side of Photosystem I provide photoprotection to conifer thylakoids in early spring

The paper shows that conifer thylakoids consume O2 via photoreduction at Photosystem I under cold, light conditions in early spring, providing photoprotection.

Timing Is Everything In Autumn - Coordination Of Senescence Onset By A Transcriptional Program In Response To Environmental And Phytohormone Signals

The paper identifies a salicylic acid signaling pathway that fine-tunes senescence timing in aspen trees in response to environmental stress.

Nitrate fertilization may delay autumn leaf senescence, while amino acid treatments do not

Nitrate fertilization delays autumn leaf senescence in Populus, while amino acid treatments do not, with distinct metabolic effects observed.

An atlas of the Norway spruce needle seasonal transcriptome

This paper presents a seasonal transcriptome atlas of Norway spruce needles using RNA sequencing, revealing gene expression patterns across different seasons and their biological implications.

Genetic markers and tree properties predicting wood biorefining potential in aspen (Populus tremula) bioenergy feedstock

This study identifies genetic markers and tree traits predicting wood saccharification potential in aspen, showing growth traits and GWAS loci correlate with bioconversion efficiency.

GIGANTEA gene expression influence leaf senescence in Populus in two different ways

This study shows that altering GIGANTEA gene expression in Populus affects leaf senescence through two distinct mechanisms, independent of FT expression and environmental conditions.

Adaptive introgression and standing genetic variation, two facilitators of adaptation to high latitudes in European aspen (Populus tremula L.)

This study identifies adaptive introgression and standing genetic variation as key factors in European aspen's adaptation to high latitudes through genomic analysis of 411 trees.

Direct energy transfer from photosystem II to photosystem I is the major regulator of winter sustainability of Scots pine

The paper investigates how direct energy transfer from photosystem II to photosystem I helps Scots pine survive winter by enabling sustained quenching and photoprotection.

Constructing a high-density linkage map to infer the genomic landscape of recombination rate variation in European Aspen (Populus tremula)

The paper constructs a high-density linkage map for European Aspen to estimate recombination rate variation and compares it with LD-based estimates, finding agreement and identifying high recombination regions missed by map-based methods.

A major locus controls local adaptation and adaptive life history variation in a perennial plant

The paper identifies a major genetic locus, PtFT2, that controls local adaptation and adaptive life history variation in European aspen across a latitudinal gradient.
