2008 journal article
The impact of vegetation on sedimentary organic matter composition and PAH desorption
ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION, 156(3), 928–935.
author keywords: Phragmites; PAHs; Desorption; Sediments; Phytoremediation
MeSH headings : Adsorption; Biodegradation, Environmental; Chrysenes / analysis; Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry; Geologic Sediments / analysis; Humic Substances / analysis; Plants / metabolism; Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons / analysis; Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons / pharmacokinetics; Polymers; Pyrenes / analysis; Soil / analysis; Soil Pollutants / pharmacokinetics
TL;DR:
After several decades of plant colonization and growth (Phragmites australis), vegetated sediment fractions more extensively desorbed PAHs and had faster desorption kinetics than non-vegetation sediment fractions.

2008 journal article
Differences in sediment organic matter composition and PAH weathering between non-vegetated and recently vegetated fuel oiled sediments
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOREMEDIATION, 10(6), 473–485.
author keywords: polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH); C-14 accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS); Phragmites; cattails; willow trees
MeSH headings : Biodegradation, Environmental; Fuel Oils / analysis; Geologic Sediments / chemistry; Plant Roots; Poaceae / metabolism; Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons / chemistry; Salix / metabolism; Soil Pollutants / chemistry; Soil Pollutants / metabolism; Typhaceae / metabolism
TL;DR:
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon attenuation in contaminated field sediments after only 2 years of plant growth is examined to hypothesized that bulk sediment and humin fractions with measurable increases in plant organic matter content would show measurable changes to PAH attenuation as indicated by more weathered PAH diagnostic ratios or reduced PAH concentrations.

Multimodel ensembles of streamflow forecasts: Role of predictor state in developing optimal combinations
Water Resources Research, 44(9).
TL;DR:
Contingency analyses on categorical forecasts show that the proposed multimodel combination technique reduces average Brier score and total number of false alarms, resulting in improved reliability of forecasts, and adding climatological ensembles improves the multimodels performance resulting in reduced average RPS.

School physical education, extracurricular sports, and lifelong active living
JOURNAL OF TEACHING IN PHYSICAL EDUCATION, 27(2), 155–166.
author keywords: intramural sports; lifelong participation; active living; youth; obesity; physical education
TL;DR:
Support is presented for the notion that a physical education curriculum that includes intramurals before, during, and after school can help children learn the skills to enjoy participation in a variety of sports designed to facilitate lifelong active living.

Impacts of methamidophos on the biochemical, catabolic, and genetic characteristics of soil microbial communities
SOIL BIOLOGY & BIOCHEMISTRY, 40(3), 778–788.
author keywords: methamidophos; soil microbial community; diversity; PLFA; CLCPS; ARDRA
TL;DR:
The results provide the first evidence that methamidophos differentially affected components of the soil microbial community through inhibiting fungal growth but enhancing the biomass and catabolic activity of Gram-negative bacteria.

Effect of prior tillage and soil fertility amendments on dispersal of Phytophthora capsici and infection of pepper
EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF PLANT PATHOLOGY, 120(3), 273–287.
author keywords: Phytophthora capsici; epidemiology; organic amendment; physical; chemical and biological parameters; disease spread
TL;DR:
Both the previous tillage and fertility amendments affected the incidence of disease and dispersal of the pathogen and soil water content, soil porosity, humic matter content, and net mineralizable levels nitrogen were positively correlated and bulk density was negatively correlated with final incidence of Disease.

Expression of a harpin-encoding gene in rice confers durable nonspecific resistance to Magnaporthe grisea
PLANT BIOTECHNOLOGY JOURNAL, 6(1), 73–81.
author keywords: appressorium; defence-related genes; durable nonspecific resistance; hrf1 gene; Magnaporthe grisea; rice
MeSH headings : Bacterial Outer Membrane Proteins / genetics; Bacterial Outer Membrane Proteins / metabolism; Gene Expression; Host-Pathogen Interactions; Magnaporthe / immunology; Magnaporthe / physiology; Oryza / genetics; Oryza / immunology; Oryza / microbiology; Plant Diseases; Plant Leaves / metabolism; Silicon / metabolism; Xanthomonas / genetics
TL;DR:
It is shown that the expression of a harpin-encoding gene (hrf1) confers nonspecific resistance in rice to the blast fungus Magnaporthe grisea, and it is suggested that harpins may offer new opportunities for generating broad-spectrum disease resistance in other crops.
