Does the coefficient of variation reflect developmental instability in plants? [PDF]
Developmental stability or homeostasis refers to the ability of an individual to produce a consistent phenotype in a given environment (Graham et al. 1993). Reduced developmental stability can result from a wide variety of environmentally (or genetically)

Diatoms are one of the main primary producers in aquatic ecosystems and occupy a vital link in the transfer of photosynthetically-fixed carbon through aquatic food webs. Diatoms produce an array of biologically-active metabolites, many of which have been

The Effects of Sound Stimulation During Incubation on Developmental Stability, Performance Traits, and Fear Responses in Japanese Quail [PDF]
The aim of this study was to determine the effects of different sound stimulant applied to embryos during the incubation on performance characteristics, fear responses, and developmental stability of Japanese quails. For this purpose, a quiet environment,

Fluctuating asymmetry and environmental stress : understanding the role of trait history [PDF]
While fluctuating asymmetry (FA; small, random deviations from perfect symmetry in bilaterally symmetrical traits) is widely regarded as a proxy for environmental and genetic stress effects, empirical associations between FA and stress are often weak or ...

In meiosis, BRCA2 associates to MEILB2 localising at DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). Here, the authors identify BRCA2 and MEILB2- associating protein 1 termed BRME1 to work together in regulating meiotic recombination.
