Community‐based participatory research (CBPR) is generally understood as a process by which decision‐making power and ownership are shared between the researcher and the community involved, bi‐directional research capacity and co‐learning are promoted, and new knowledge is co‐created and disseminated in a manner that is mutually beneficial for those involved. Within the field of Canadian geography we are seeing emerging interest in using CBPR as a way of conducting meaningful and relevant research with Indigenous communities. However, individual interpretations of CBPR's tenets and the ways in which CBPR is operationalized are, in fact, highly variable. In this article we report the findings of an exploratory qualitative case study involving semi‐structured, open‐ended interviews with Canadian university‐based geographers and social scientists in related disciplines who engage in CBPR to explore the relationship between their conceptual understanding of CBPR and their applied research. Our findings reveal some of the tensions for university‐based researchers concerning CBPR in theory and practice.
Regulatory properties of a 1.4-kilobase promoter fragment of the bean chalcone synthase CHS8 gene were examined by analysis of glucuronidase (GUS) activity in transgenic tobacco containing a CHS8-GUS gene fusion. The promoter was highly active in the root apical meristem and in petals, exclusively in those cells of the inner epidermis that accumulate anthocyanins. The gene fusion was only weakly expressed in other floral organs, mature leaves, and stems. The early stages of seedling development were characterized by an apparent wound induction of the promoter in the endosperm and strong expression in the immature root, which became localized to the apical meristem and perivascular tissue at the root-hypocotyl junction. The promoter became active during lateral root formation in both the new root and damaged tissue of the main root. The gene fusion was also expressed in greening cotyledons and primary leaves but not in the shoot apical meristem. Light modulated expression in the cotyledons and root-shoot junction but had no effect on other aspects of the developmental program. Wounding or fungal elicitor treatment of mature leaves activated the promoter in a well-defined zone adjacent to the stress site. Stress induction occurred in mesophyll and vascular tissues as well as in the epidermis. We conclude that the CHS8 promoter contains cis-elements required to establish temporal and spatial control of flavonoid biosynthesis during development and in response to diverse environmental stimuli.
