Artificial selection in plants and animals

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B. Biological Sciences, 1966
Abstract shall be dealing in this paper with the results of selection experiments in plant said animal populations, partly from the point of view of the effectiveness of the selection in actually producing improvement, but rather more in terms of the formation that these experiments give us about the architecture of quantitative ...

Simulated evolution and artificial selection

Biosystems, 1989
A highly simplified evolving system was investigated by computer simulation. The genetic complement of each simulated organism in the population was represented by a single chromosome that consisted of a string of symbols. Individual fitness was measured as the number of symbols that corresponded to a specified rule.

Lanthanide-Selective Artificial Channels

ACS Nano
Lanthanides serve as essential elements for modern technology, playing critical roles in batteries, wind turbines, portable electronics, and energy-efficient lighting. Purifying lanthanides from ores and recycling them from end-of-life consumer materials are costly and damaging to the environment due to inefficient separation technologies.

Interaction between artificial and natural selection

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 1975
In order to understand how divergence may appear within a gene pool without limitations on gene flow, experiments were performed to investigate whether the genetic structure of a population may be effective in controlling the response to natural selection.

A Mathematical Theory of Natural and Artificial Selection.

Bulletin of Mathematical Biology, 1926
Expressions are found for the changes caused by slow selection in populations whose characters are determined by incompletely dominant, multiple, or polyploid factors, and for the equilibria attained in certain of these cases.

Forward and reverse response to artificial selection

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 1976
The effect of t ' generations of reverse selection after t generations of forward selection can be described by expressing the change in the metric mean resulting from reverse selection (R) interms ofthe change in the metric mean due to the previous forward selection (Δx).

Artificial selection in populations by overlapping generations

Advances in Applied Probability, 1975
In populations of species such as cattle and sheep which are being selected for commercially important quantitative traits like milk yield and growth rate, the breeder cannot avoid overlapping generations since the female reproductive rate is so low. There is a classical theory for predicting the rate of response to selection in continuing programmes ...

Selecting Information based on Artificial Forms of Selective Attention

2010
We describe an approach based on artificial forms of selective attention for overcoming the problem of information and interruption overload of intelligent agents so that these can autonomously select relevant information of the environment while ignoring other less relevant information in order to allocate processing resources on it.
