The increasing engagement of informaticians at the forefront of these efforts has been a fundamental shift from an academic to an operational role. However, the past history of informatics as a scientific domain and an area of applied practice provides little guidance or prologue for the incredible challenges that we are now tasked with performing. Building upon our recent experiences, we present four critical lessons-learned that have helped shape our scalable, data-driven response to COVID-19. We describe each of these lessons within the context of specific solutions and strategies we applied in addressing the challenges that we faced. © The Author(s) 2020.

In this study, we compared these variables and fruit yield for two shrub species, Vaccinium angustifolium and Vaccinium myrtilloides to test the hypothesis that phenology is linked to the plants' allometric traits, which are predictors of fruit production. METHODS We measured leaf and flower phenology and the aboveground biomass of both Vaccinium sp. in a commercial wild lowbush blueberry field (Quebec, Canada) over a two-year crop cycle; one year of pruning followed by one year of harvest. Leaf and flower phenology were measured, and the allometric traits of shoots and buds were monitored over the crop cycle. We hand-collected the fruits of each p
