Whitehouse, C. M., Evenden, M. L., Sperling, F. A. H., Strong, W. B., Roe, A. D.
Abstract: Coneworms, Dioryctria Zeller (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), are destructive pests of conifers across North America, and members of several different species groups present significant pest-management challenges in conifer seed orchards. Dioryctria abietivorella Grote (abietella group) is the...

Biology of Caloptilia fraxinella (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae) on ornamental green ash, Fraxinus pennsylvanica (Oleaceae)
Download2009
Abstract: The ash leaf cone roller, Caloltilia firaxinella (Ely), is a leaf-mining moth that has recently become a significant pest of horticultural ash, Fraxinus L., species in communities throughout the western prairie provinces of Canada. The study examines the spatial and temporal within-host...

Biomonitoring and elimination of Perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) and Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) through perspiration: Blood, Urine, and Sweat (BUS) Study.
Download2013
Genuis, S.J., Birkholz, D., Beesoon, S.
Perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) are man-made organofluorine chemicals manufactured and marketed for their stain-resistant properties. Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are anthropogenic organochlorine compounds previously used in various industrial and chemical applications prior to being banned...

Biotic homogenization within and across eight widely distributed grasslands following invasion by Bromus inermis
Download2019-01-01
Stotz, G. C., Gianoli, E., Cahill, J. F.
Invasive species can alter the structure and function of the communities they invade, as well as lead to biotic homogenization across their invasive range, thus affecting large-scale diversity patterns. The mechanisms by which invasive species can lead to biotic homogenization are poorly...

Birds of a feather do not always lek together: Genetic diversity and kinship structure of Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) in Alberta
Download2010
Aldridge, C.L., Bush, K.L., Coltman, D.W., Carpenter, J.E., Paszowski, C.A., Boyce, M.S.
Endangered species are sensitive to the genetic effects of fragmentation, small population size, and inbreeding, so effective management requires a thorough understanding of their breeding systems and genetic diversity. The Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) is a lekking species that...
