Interaction between photoperiod and variation in circadian rhythms in tomato.
Published in BMC plant biology
Many biological processes follow circadian rhythmicity and are controlled by the circadian clock. Predictable environmental changes such as seasonal variation in photoperiod can modulate circadian rhythms, allowing organisms to adjust the timing of their biological processes to the time of the year. In some crops such as rice, barley or soybean, mu...
SPREAD 4: online visualisation of pathogen phylogeographic reconstructions
Phylogeographic analyses aim to extract information about pathogen spread from genomic data, and visualising spatio-temporal reconstructions is a key aspect of this process. Here we present SPREAD 4, a feature-rich web-based application that visualises estimates of pathogen dispersal resulting from Bayesian phylogeographic inference using BEAST on ...
Scale length does matter: Recommendations for measurement invariance testing with categorical factor analysis and item r...
In social sciences, the study of group differences concerning latent constructs is ubiquitous. These constructs are generally measured by means of scales composed of ordinal items. In order to compare these constructs across groups, one crucial requirement is that they are measured equivalently or, in technical jargon, that measurement invariance (...
Trial emulation and survival analysis for disease incidence registers: A case study on the causal effect of pre-emptive ...
Published in Statistics in medicine
When drawing causal inference from observed data, failure time outcomes present additional challenges of censoring often combined with other missing data patterns. In this article, we follow incident cases of end-stage renal disease to examine the effect on all-cause mortality of starting treatment with transplant, so-called pre-emptive kidney tran...

Benefit Segmentation of Tourists to Geosites and Its Implications for Sustainable Development of Geotourism in the South...
Geotourism is a sustainable type of tourism that focuses on the geological and geomorphological heritages of an area, and the associated cultural and biodiversity features. Though the popularity of geotourism is rapidly growing, research on the demand side, particularly on segmenting tourists to geosites and understanding their profiles, is limited...
airGRteaching: Teaching Hydrological Modelling with the GR Rainfall-Runoff Models ('Shiny' Interface Included) (v. 0.2.1...
Add-on package to the 'airGR' package that simplifies its use and is aimed at being used for teaching hydrology. The package provides 1) three functions that allow to complete very simply a hydrological modelling exercise 2) plotting functions to help students to explore observed data and to interpret the results of calibration and simulation of th...
airGR: Suite of GR Hydrological Models for Precipitation-Runoff Modelling (v. 1.7.0)
Hydrological modelling tools developed at INRAE-Antony (HYCAR Research Unit, France). The package includes several conceptual rainfall-runoff models (GR4H, GR5H, GR4J, GR5J, GR6J, GR2M, GR1A) that can be applied either on a lumped or semi-distributed way. A snow accumulation and melt model (CemaNeige) and the associated functions for the calibratio...
Variation in Tracheid Dimensions of Conifer Xylem Reveals Evidence of Adaptation to Environmental Conditions
Globally distributed extant conifer species must adapt to various environmental conditions, which would be reflected in their xylem structure, especially in the tracheid characteristics of earlywood and latewood. With an anatomical trait dataset of 78 conifer species growing throughout China, an interspecific study within a phylogenetic context was...
