Limits on the reproducibility of marker associations with southern leaf blight resistance in the maize nested association mapping population
BMC GENOMICS, 15(1).
Contributors: Y. Bian n, Q. Yang n, P. Balint-Kurti n , R. Wisser * & J. Holland n
author keywords: Quantitative trait loci; Nested association mapping; Disease resistance; Genome wide association study; Zea mays
MeSH headings : Alleles; Chromosome Mapping; Chromosomes, Plant / genetics; Disease Resistance / genetics; Genetic Linkage; Genome-Wide Association Study; Genotype; Linkage Disequilibrium; Phenotype; Plant Leaves / genetics; Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide; Quantitative Trait Loci; Zea mays / genetics
TL;DR:
The highly polygenic nature of resistance to SLB complicates the identification of causal genes and the updated NAM genetic linkage map improves QTL estimation and, along with a much denser SNP HapMap, greatly increases the likelihood of detecting SNPs in linkage with causal variants.

Modeling oncolytic virotherapy: Is complete tumor-tropism too much of a good thing?
JOURNAL OF THEORETICAL BIOLOGY, 358, 166–178.
author keywords: Oncolytic viruses; Tumor elimination; Apparent competition; Vesicular stomatitis virus
MeSH headings : Humans; Models, Theoretical; Neoplasms / therapy; Oncolytic Virotherapy
TL;DR:
Viruses that infect some normal cells can potentially balance the competing goals of tumor elimination and minimizing the effects on normal cell populations, and could improve cancer treatment, with potentially fewer side-effects than conventional treatments such as chemotherapy.

Influence of edible fruit coatings on Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura) (Diptera: Drosophilidae) oviposition and development
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PEST MANAGEMENT, 60(4), 279–286.
author keywords: invasive species; blueberry; raspberry; oviposition deterrent
TL;DR:
It is suggested that obtaining thorough, even coverage in the field will be essential if edible coatings are to be used as a management strategy for D. suzukii infestation, and two carnauba wax-based coatings, PrimaFresh 45 and Raynox, dramatically reduced survivorship of immature D.suzukII in raspberries, but not in blueberries.

Koehler, A., & Shew, H. (2014, October). PLANT DISEASE, Vol. 98, pp. 1433–1433.
TL;DR:
Diseased plants were observed in several counties in the state in fields that had been planted primarily in a corn-soybean rotation prior to stevia planting, and symptoms included wilting, chlorotic leaves, necrotic leaves at the base of the stem, bleached stem lesions, and dead plants.

Evidence for Diet-Driven Habitat Partitioning of Melanoplinae and Gomphocerinae (Orthoptera: Acrididae) Along a Vegetation Gradient in a Western Oklahoma Grassland
ENVIRONMENTAL ENTOMOLOGY, 43(5), 1209–1214.
author keywords: Acrididae; feeding habit; habitat partitioning; factor analysis
MeSH headings : Animals; Diet; Ecosystem; Grasshoppers / growth & development; Grasshoppers / physiology; Grassland; Nymph / growth & development; Nymph / physiology; Oklahoma; Species Specificity
TL;DR:
Afactor analysis indicated that forb cover and grass cover contributed more than litter and bare ground cover to the relative abundance of these grasshopper subfamilies and it is concluded that this is evidence for dietary-based habitat partitioning as observed through subfamilial relative abundance.
