Import volumes and biosecurity interventions shape the arrival rate of fungal pathogens
(Public Library of Science, 2018-05-31)Global trade and the movement of people accelerate biological invasions by spreading species worldwide. Biosecurity measures seek to allow trade and passenger movements while preventing incursions that could lead to the ... -
Spontaneous gain of susceptibility suggests a novel mechanism of resistance to hybrid dysgenesis in Drosophila virilis
(Public Library of Science, 2018-05-29)Syndromes of hybrid dysgenesis (HD) have been critical for our understanding of the transgenerational maintenance of genome stability by piRNA. HD in D. virilis represents a special case of HD since it includes simultaneous ... -
Costs of cold acclimation on survival and reproductive behavior in Drosophila melanogaster
(Public Library of Science, 2018-05-23)Fitness is determined by the ability of an organism to both survive and reproduce; however, the mechanisms that lead to increased survival may not have the same effect on reproductive success. We used nineteen natural ... -
Maximizing tree harvesting benefit from forests under insect infestation disturbances
(Public Library of Science, 2018-08-02)Mathematical modeling has been recognized as an important tool to advance the understanding of the synergetic effect of coupled disturbances (stressors) on the forest population dynamics. Nonetheless, most of the modeling ... -
In memoriam: Jeanette A. Thomas 1952–2018. [obituary].

A phylum-level phylogenetic classification of zygomycete fungi based on genome-scale data
(Taylor & Francis, 2017-01-20)Zygomycete fungi were classified as a single phylum, Zygomycota, based on sexual reproduction by zygospores, frequent asexual reproduction by sporangia, absence of multicellular sporocarps, and production of coenocytic ... -

(University of Kansas, 1948) -
Mammals as evolutionary partners
(1985) -
Experimental arthropod transmissions of tularemia
(University of Kansas, 1950) -
A revision of the genus Buenoa (Notonectidae, Hemiptera)

The cranial osteology of the iguanid lizard Stenocercus guentheri (Squamata: Iguanidae) and its postembryonic development
(University of Kansas, 2001)In spite of the great diversity of iguanid lizards, detailed descriptions of their osteocrania and postembryonic development are rare. Herein, the adult cranial osteology of the iguanid lizard Stenocercus guentheri and its ... -
Transmission dynamics for Methicilin-resistant Staphalococous areus with injection drug user
(BioMed Central, 2018-02-07)Background: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a bacterial pathogen resistance to antibiotics including methicillin. The resistance first emerged in 1960 in a healthcare setting only after two years of ... -
Phylogenetic systematics of South American lizards of the genus Stenocercus (Squamata: Iguania)
(University of Kansas, 2005-12-31)The South American iguanian lizard genus Stenocercus includes 58 species occurring mostly in the Andes and adjacent lowland areas from northern Venezuela and Colombia to central Argentina at elevations of 0--4000 m. Limited ... -
Nonclonal coloniality: Genetically chimeric colonies through fusion of sexually produced polyps in the hydrozoan Ectopleura larynx
(Wiley Open Access, 2018-07-11)Hydrozoans typically develop colonies through asexual budding of polyps. Although colonies of Ectopleura are similar to other hydrozoans in that they consist of multiple polyps physically connected through continuous ... -

A new lineage of braconid wasps in Burmese Cenomanian amber (Hymenoptera, Braconidae)
(Pensoft Publishers, 2018-01-17)A new braconid wasp from the Upper Cretaceous (Cenomanian) amber of the Hukawng Valley in Kachin State, Myanmar is described and figured from a unique female. Seneciobracon novalatus Engel & Huang, gen. et sp. n., is placed ... -

Mating and aggregative behaviors among basal hexapods in the Early Cretaceous
(Public Library of Science, 2018-02-21)Among the many challenges in paleobiology is the inference and reconstruction of behaviors that rarely, if ever, leave a physical trace on the environment that is suitable for fossilization. Of particular significance are ...
