Bringing Skepticism to Crop Science

Bringing Skepticism to Crop Science

Thomas Sinclair; Thomas W. Rufty

Springer International Publishing AG
2023
nidottu
Global food production and climate change among other concerns are societal issues that require major research input from crop science. While suggestions are abundant on how crop science can help to resolve these issues, many of the suggestions come from people who are not actually familiar with the challenges and requirements to modify crop plants grown under field conditions to achieve the necessary improvements. Efforts to alter a gene or even several genes have very rarely proven successful in having impact on crop production under realistic field conditions. This lack of success has not been addressed head on. This book serves as a reminder to crop scientists and others that open, clear-minded assessments of the entirety of evidence concerning a hypothesis is required before making claims of possible increases in crop performance. This attitude of skepticism is not a negative attitude but rather an employment of the cornerstone of scientific investigation based on formation and evaluation of hypotheses. Skeptical analyses are to be presented in the book on some of the common suggestions for improving crop plants. The six specific topics to be addressed are photosynthesis, seed number, nitrogen use efficiency, water use efficiency, crop water loss, and unconfirmed field observations. Each of the topics in this book, will first be reviewed to present the origins of the popular assumptions about how specific plant modification will result in improved crop performance. The review of the background information will be followed by an examination of the evidence, logic, and predicted outcomes for the assumed benefits of the modifications. Finally, each chapter will offer novel, alternate approaches to plant modification that have documented support for positively impacting crop performance. The book will not be written in specialized, detail language but offer access for those with a wide range of interests in options for increasing crop production in the future. Thegoal of the book is to provide information that is useful to those with interests ranging from climatologist to food-oriented sociologists. Of course, the topics covered will be of direct interest to those studying plant sciences, particularly crop scientists. The hope is to challenge a reader to re-examine some of her/his assumptions about crop improvement and approach the topic with a renewed practice of skepticism in formulating and evaluating hypotheses.

The riddle of the frozen flame is a mystery novel that presents an intricate investigation tied to a puzzling wave of gold thefts and a series of strange occurrences in a secluded countryside. The narrative opens with growing concern at a law enforcement agency over several unresolved bank robberies, each marked by a lack of evidence and a striking precision in execution. This sparks a broader inquiry that leads to an isolated estate, where unexplained lights in the surrounding marshes raise both suspicion and fear. The initial tension builds around the legacy of a long-vanished estate owner and the current resident s decision to revisit the site despite ominous warnings. What follows is an unfolding mystery that blends meticulous investigation with atmospheric tension. The novel explores the weight of inheritance, public scrutiny, and the danger of chasing unresolved truths. Through its investigative lens, it poses questions about perception, coincidence, and whether clarity is always found through reason alone or shaped by what one chooses to believe.

The riddle of the purple emperor follows a master of disguise drawn into a case involving a family legacy tainted by a cursed jewel. At the center is a diamond of great value and greater misfortune, whose history has left a trail of fear and suspicion. As the story unfolds, the protagonist confronts a world shaped by wealth, secrecy, and the lengths people go to preserve reputation. A country estate becomes the site of hidden motives and generational burdens, where the appearance of civility masks deep unease. The journey begins at a train station and moves through conversations that hint at danger, culminating in an invitation to a place where tragedy once unfolded and may yet again. The narrative explores how objects of desire can dominate lives, how history shapes behavior, and how truth can be buried under layers of performance and inherited silence. The jewel is not just a treasure but a lens through which guilt, greed, and illusion are magnified, demanding clarity in a world built on deception.

The Arch Lake human burial site, discovered in 1967 in eastern New Mexico, contains the third-oldest known remains in North America. Since its original excavation and removal to Eastern New Mexico University’s Blackwater Draw Museum, the 10,000 radiocarbon-year-old burial has been known only locally. In February 2000 an interdisciplinary team led by Douglas W. Owsley reexamined the osteology, geology, archaeology, and radiocarbon dating of the burial. In this first volume in Peopling of the Americas Publications—released by Texas A&M University Press for the Center for the Study of the First Americans—Arch Lake Woman presents the results of this recent analysis of the skeleton and site. In addition to color and black-and-white illustrations, Arch Lake Woman includes extensive tables describing the team’s discoveries and comparing their results with those of other ancient burials.
