2007 article
Regulatory science in forest biotechnology
Sederoff, R. (2007, April). TREE GENETICS & GENOMES, Vol. 3, pp. 71–74.
TL;DR:
The development of a regulatory framework in many countries, the absence of evidence ofharm in large numbers of field tests, and increasing familiarity has made this level of acceptance possible, and there is an inherent paradox in much of the regulation incurrent practice.

2007 journal article
Protein sequences from mastodon and Tyrannosaurus rex revealed by mass spectrometry
SCIENCE, 316(5822), 280–285.
MeSH headings : Amino Acid Sequence; Animals; Bone and Bones / chemistry; Collagen / chemistry; Dinosaurs; Elephants; Evolution, Molecular; Fossils; Humans; Mass Spectrometry; Molecular Sequence Data; Proteins / analysis; Proteins / chemistry; Reptilian Proteins / analysis; Reptilian Proteins / chemistry; Sequence Alignment; Sequence Analysis, Protein; Struthioniformes
TL;DR:
The presence of T. rex sequences indicates that their peptide bonds were remarkably stable, and mass spectrometry can be used to determine unique sequences from ancient organisms from peptide fragmentation patterns, a valuable tool to study the evolution and adaptation of ancient taxa from which genomic sequences are unlikely to be obtained.

Identification of the tobacco blue mold pathogen, Peronospora tabacina, by polymerase chain reaction
PLANT DISEASE, 91(6), 685–691.
Contributors: J. Ristaino n , A. Johnson n, M. Blanco-Meneses n & B. Liu n
author keywords: oomycetes
TL;DR:
A specific PCR primer, called PTAB, was developed and used with ITS4 to amplify a 764-bp region of DNA that was diagnostic for P. tabacina on tobacco and was useful for detection of the pathogen in fresh, air-dried, and cured tobacco leaves.

Effect of tobacco budworm (Lepidoptera : Noctuidae) infestation level on budworm-resistant and susceptible varieties of flue-cured tobacco in north Carolina
JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC ENTOMOLOGY, 100(3), 801–807.
author keywords: flue-cured tobacco; treatment threshold; damage relationships; infestation
TL;DR:
The results provide economic support for tolerance of a higher treatment threshold for resistant varieties, as the combination of pest pressure and the benefit of host plant resistance must be greater than the capacity of a susceptible variety to produce competitive yields, despite sustaining significantly higher loss.
