author keywords: Carbohydrate storage; Eastern hemlock; Hemlock woolly adelgid; Invasive species; Integrated pest management; Sunlight
TL;DR: It is found that trees experienced greater leaf-level stress in gaps and when HWA was actively feeding, and that silvicultural treatments may improve long-term health and survival of infested trees and that integration of such treatments with existing strategies is worthy of continued exploration.

Use of the lignocellulose-degrading bacterium Caldicellulosiruptor bescii to assess recalcitrance and conversion of wild-type and transgenic poplar

BIOTECHNOLOGY FOR BIOFUELS, 13(1).

By: C. Straub n, R. Bing n , J. Wang n , V. Chiang n, M. Adams * & R. Kelly n 

author keywords: Caldicellulosiruptor; Extreme thermophiles; Lignocellulose; Biofuel; Poplar
TL;DR: Utilizing C. bescii as a screening assay for recalcitrance, poplar lines with down-regulation of coumarate 3-hydroxylase 3 (C3H3) resulted in the highest degrees of solubilization and conversion by C. Bescii, suggesting that excellent digestibility can be achieved without compromising fitness of the tree. (via Semantic Scholar)

Effects of group size and group density on trade-offs in resource selection by a group-territorial central-place foraging woodpecker

IBIS, 162(2), 477–491.

By: J. Garabedian n, C. Moorman n, M. Peterson  n & J. Kilgo*

author keywords: competition; density dependence; endangered species; forest structure; functional response; LiDAR; Red-cockaded Woodpecker; space use
TL;DR: Modelling effects of group size on foraging distances and selection for high‐quality pines and lower quality pines in Red‐cockaded Woodpecker Leuconotopicus borealis groups suggests intraspecific competition at high group density entails substantive costs to smaller groups of territorial central‐place foragers by limiting accessibility of distant high‐ quality foraging resources.
