Weeds promote greater arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi benefit in organically managed spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivation system
DownloadFall 2012
Weeds appear to enhance soil microbial benefit in organic agricultuer. We examined effects of weed and microbial effects on spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) yield and quality under organic management systems. Canadian spring wheat cultivars were planted in weed-free and weedy treatments in...

Unique cellular interactions between the obligate intracellular bacteria Wolbachia pipientis and its insect host
DownloadFall 2011
Wolbachia are maternally inherited obligate intracellular bacteria found in arthropods, where they induce feminization, male-killing, parthenogenesis, and cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI). CI is conditional male sterility, in which Wolbachia-infected males successfully mate with infected females,...

Thavarajah, Dil, Clapperton, M. Jill, Frick, Brenda, Quideau, Sylvie A., Hucl, Pierre J., Nelson, Alison G., Spaner, Dean M.
Micronutrient deficiencies in the diet of many people are common and wheat is a staple food crop, providing a carbohydrate and micronutrient source to a large percentage of the world’s population. We conducted a field study to compare five Canadian red spring wheat cultivars (released over the...

Soil microbial communities and grain quality as affected by spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar and grain mixtures in organic and conventional management systems
DownloadFall 2011
It may be possible to tailor crop management to encourage diverse soil microbial communities and beneficial microorganisms, and produce high quality food products. Studies were carried out in 2005-2007 to evaluate the impact of spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar choice and crop...

Festuca hallii (plains rough fescue), a late-seral bunchgrass and long-lived perennial, is difficult to restore once disturbed. Once dominant in grasslands throughout central Alberta, F. hallii now occurs in remnants, a result of agricultural and residential development, and oil and gas...

Glomus cells of the carotid body are peripheral chemoreceptors that detect changes in arterial oxygen levels. Hypoxia suppresses oxygen-sensitive K+ channels in glomus cells, resulting in cytosolic Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) elevation in glomus cells via the activation of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels. The...
