Abstract:

Abstract After a steady decline following European settlement, recent forest resource inventories in the Lower Midwest region of the United States—Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, and Missouri—have shown an increase in the area of forestland. Eastern redcedar is one of the primary species involved in this expansion and is projected to continue to increase. This has both positive and negative implications for land management. Landowners and managers can influence the direction and magnitude of the expansion of eastern redcedar. North. J. Appl. For. 12(4):180-183.

Abstract Our objective was to determine whether provenance of origin and use of organic mulch influence survival, vegetative growth, and the number and size of fruit of Callicarpa americana L. (American beautyberry) planted north of its natural distribution in the central United States. Forty-eight plants were established in 2006 at each of four locations north of the natural distribution, two in Missouri and two in Iowa, and at one location within the natural distribution in Arkansas. Plants at each location (24 per provenance) were propagated from seeds collected from plants indigenous to so

Abstract:

A severe vein-clearing and vine decline syndrome has emerged on grapevines (Vitis vinifera) and hybrid grape cultivars in the Midwest region of the United States. The typical symptoms are translucent vein-clearing on young leaves, short internodes and decline of vine vigor. Known viral pathogens of grapevines were not closely associated with the syndrome. To obtain a comprehensive profile of viruses in a diseased grapevine, small RNAs were enriched and two cDNA libraries were constructed from a symptomatic grapevine and a symptomless grapevine, respectively.

A fungus associated with leaf hairs of Silver King also known as Silver Wormwood (Artemisia ludoviciana Nutt. subsp. albula (Wooton) Keck) from Missouri (Crawford County, near Bourbon) was identified as the loculoascomycete Nematostoma artemisiae Syd. and P. Syd. When the fungus is present, the leaf hairs become discolored due to the numerous dark ascocarps and eventually drop off and the living leaves lose their silvery appearance, detracting from the ornamental value of the plants. Undocumented observations suggest that the fungus occurred on this host in Ohio and other states of the Midwest

AIHA can be categorized as primary, when the underlying cause has not been demonstrated, and secondary, when the hemolysis is caused due to autoantibodies related to autoimmune diseases, lymphoproliferative diseases, infections, solid tumors or solid organ transplantation. Another form of secondary AIHA is drug-related AIHA, in which hemolysis is driven by the intake of certain drugs including antibiotics, antiviral drugs, and chemotherapeu

Abstract:

Five hundred and fifty-two caddisfly species are reported from the Upper Midwest region of the United States, an area that includes 13 states and ~ 2 million km2. Of these, 62 species are reported for the first time from the state of Iowa, 25 from Wisconsin, 18 from South Dakota, 12 from Illinois, five from Indiana, four from North Dakota, four from Minnesota, and one from Nebraska. The Upper Midwest fauna contains nearly 40% of all species known from the United States and Canada, as well as 22 species endemic to the region. Overall species richness was highest in Michigan (319 species), Kentu

Abstract:

Abstract A view of forest-based economic activity is presented that highlights the interdependence among industries in separate producing regions. Interindustry transactions for the United States and four subregions (the Northeast, South, West, and Midwest states) were obtained from IMPLAN (IMpact analysis for PLANning), the USDA Forest Service's input-output modeling system. This information was combined with interregion product trade flow estimates obtained from a gravity model to yield an interregional input-output model of the United States emphasizing forest-based industries. The input-ou

Abstract:

In this issue, we focus on Latinos living in the "heartlands" of the United States. We share our experiences in various communities in the Midwest, particularly in and around the Chicago and Milwaukee area. The work we report on encompasses research in school and non-school settings, with children, families, young people, and older adults, and with immigrants from different towns and countries of origin. We unify these experiences by adopting the pan-national term "Latinos," at the same time we recognize that this is not necessarily the appropriate "emic" term for particular groups of Spanish-

Abstract:

Forecasts of household vehicle consumption are important for automobile market analyses. This paper employs the ProFamy extended cohort-component new method to project household vehicle consumption from 2000 to 2025 across four regions of the United States (the Northeast, Midwest, South and West). The results show that the total number of household vehicles in 2025 will reach 235 million, representing a 31% increase over the 25 years. About a half of the increase is due to the consumption of cars, while the household consumption of vans will increase at a faster rate than that of cars and truc

Abstract:

Using a mixed-methods approach, this study uses an Internet survey to investigate the curricular freedom reported by Prekindergarten through Grade 8 teachers in the United States concerning the inclusion of children's literature into their classrooms and curriculum, particularly in the current sociopolitical climate. Drawing upon Bronfenbrenner's Ecological Systems Theory, survey responses were analyzed based on the four levels of the ecological model (micro, meso, exo, and macro systems). To account for regional variations existing at the sociopolitical macro level, the study's findings were

Abstract:

Drip irrigation used in conjunction with plastic mulches and other intensive production technologies continues to expand in the Midwestern states. The vegetable crops being produced on the greatest acreages using drip irrigation/plastic mulch are tomatoes, peppers, muskmelons and watermelons. Summer squash, eggplant, cucumbers and some cole crops are also grown using drip irrigation and plastic mulches but to a much lesser extent. The estimated acreage for drip irrigation in the Midwest is 43,209 acres which includes both vegetable and fruit crops.Special consideration in using drip irrigation
