Front Plant Sci . 2024 Oct; 15:1294570. PMID: 39354940
Introduction: For nearly two centuries, cranberry ( Ait.) breeders have improved fruit quality and yield by selecting traits on fruiting stems, termed "reproductive uprights." Crop improvement is accelerating rapidly in...

Steffan S, Singleton M, Sojka J, Chasen E, Deutsch A, Zalapa J, et al.
Insects . 2017 Mar; 8(1). PMID: 28245642
The cranberry fruitworm ( Riley), sparganothis fruitworm ( Clemens), and blackheaded fireworm ( Hübner) are historically significant pests of cranberries ( Aiton) in the Upper Midwest (Wisconsin), USA. Their respective...

Patterson S, Bolivar-Medina J, Falbel T, Hedtcke J, Nevarez-McBride D, Maule A, et al.
Front Plant Sci . 2016 Feb; 6:1268. PMID: 26858730
As the world population grows and resources and climate conditions change, crop improvement continues to be one of the most important challenges for agriculturalists. The yield and quality of many...

Steffan S, Chikaraishi Y, Currie C, Horn H, Gaines-Day H, Pauli J, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2015 Nov; 112(49):15119-24. PMID: 26598691
In most ecosystems, microbes are the dominant consumers, commandeering much of the heterotrophic biomass circulating through food webs. Characterizing functional diversity within the microbiome, therefore, is critical to understanding ecosystem...

Deutsch A, Rodriguez-Saona C, Kyryczenko-Roth V, Sojka J, Zalapa J, Steffan S
J Econ Entomol . 2015 Oct; 107(6):2130-6. PMID: 26470078
Sparganothis sulfureana Clemens is a severe pest of cranberries in the Midwest and northeast United States. Timing for insecticide applications has relied primarily on calendar dates and pheromone trap-catch; however,...

Deutsch A, Rodriguez-Saona C, Zalapa J, Steffan S
Environ Entomol . 2015 Aug; 44(2):400-5. PMID: 26313194
Larvae of Sparganothis sulfureana Clemens frequently attack cranberries, often resulting in economic damage to the crop. Because temperature dictates insect growth rate, development can be accurately estimated based on daily...

Evol Appl . 2015 Jan; 3(2):157-68. PMID: 25567916
Ulmus pumila is considered an invasive tree in 41 of the United States. In this study, we examined the extent of hybridization in naturalized populations of U. pumila, its impact...
