Genetic variation in Pinus taeda wood properties predicted using non-destructive techniques

Annals of Forest Science, 68(2), 283–293.

author keywords: Genetic variation; Pinus taeda; Wood properties; Non-destructive techniques Heritability
TL;DR: The high heritabilities suggest that acoustic and NIR-based methods can efficiently be used for screening loblolly pine progeny tests for surrogate wood traits and can save considerable resources in tree breeding programs that aim to improve wood quality. (via Semantic Scholar)

Female White-tailed Deer Survival Across Ecoregions in Minnesota and South Dakota

AMERICAN MIDLAND NATURALIST, 165(2), 426–435.

By: T. Grovenburg*, C. Swanson*, C. Jacques*, C. Deperno*, R. Klaver* & J. Jenks*

TL;DR: Deer management in four distinct ecoregions relies on hunter harvest to maintain deer populations within state management goals and had the lowest AICc value suggesting that survival differed only between seasons where winter and summer survival was equal and differed with fall season.
