We have used polymorphic chloroplast simple–sequence repeats to analyse levels of genetic variation within and between seven native Scottish eight mainland European populations Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.). Diversity for the based on haplotype frequency were far in excess those previously obtained using monoterpenes isozymes confirmed lower derelict population at Glen Falloch. The diversity higher than reported similar studies other Pinus species. An analysis molecular variance (AMOVA)...
Stewardship is a popular term for the principles and actions aimed at improving sustainability resilience of social-ecological systems various scales in different contexts. Participation stewardship voluntary, based on values altruism long-term benefits. At global scale, ‘earth stewardship’ viewed as successor to earlier natural resource management systems. However, South Africa, narrowly applied biodiversity conservation agreements private land. Using broader definition stewardship, we...
The primary aim of this study was to identify aquatic invertebrate predators amphibian eggs and tadpoles in an area South Australia. presence abundance invertebrates monitored at four field sites for a period 5–6 months; revealed notonectids, freshwater crayfish odonates be amongst the most common predator types. ability these consume native Australian frogs Litoria ewingi Crinia signifera then investigated. Freshwater (Cherax destructor) were prolific consumers frog tadpoles. notonectid...
Freshwater crayfish are reported to consume early life-history stages of a number toxic amphibians. Although previous research indicates amphibians palatable crayfish, the potential toxicity associated with consumption prey has been poorly described. We sought characterise supposed tetrodotoxin (TTX) resistance freshwater which have observed eat eggs and larvae Taricha Gray, 1850 newts. White river (Procambarus acutus (Girard, 1852)) consumed 7.7 ± 4.0 Rough-skinned Newt (Taricha granulosa...
Mind wandering is a common experience for students. About 30% of the time, while learning, they will think about something unrelated, such as what have planned dinner. These off-task thoughts negatively impact their learning outcomes (Wong et al., 2022). Previous research has been conducted in video-based to assert whether including interpolated testing at pauses video leads reduced mind and improved (Jing 2016; Szpunar 2013; Welhaf The results these studies mixed do not clearly show that...
British Columbia is a diverse province, with ecosystems ranging from semi-arid deserts to valley glaciers and vast ice fields. By world standards, BC has an abundance of fresh water in its lakes rivers. However, rivers have been exploited for social industrial purposes, often the detriment natural values. Community groups non-government organizations active rehabilitating restoring waterways. The Outdoor Recreation Council provincial organization that instrumental river conservation issues...
