Identification of Specific Nuclear Genetic Loci and Genes That Interact With the Mitochondrial Genome and Contribute to Fecundity in Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2019
Previous studies have found that fecundity is a multigenic trait regulated, in part, by mitochondrial-nuclear (mit-n) genetic interactions. However, the identification of specific nuclear genetic loci or genes interacting with the mitochondrial genome ...

Is human fecundity declining? [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Andrology, 2006
SummaryThe decreasing trends in fertility rates in many industrialized countries are now so dramatic that they deserve much more scientific attention. Although social and behavioural factors undoubtedly play a major role for these trends, it seems premature, and not based on solid information, to conclude that these trends can be ascribed to social and

Genetic and environmental influences on the size-fecundity relationship in Aedes albopictus (Diptera: Culicidae): Impacts on population growth estimates? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Population growth models are integral to ecological studies by providing estimates of population performance across space and time. Several models have been developed that estimate population growth through correlates of demographic traits, as measuring ...

Reduced glutamine synthetase activity alters the fecundity of female Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Glutamine synthetase (GS) is a key enzyme in glutamine synthesis and is associated with multiple physiological processes in insects, such as embryonic development, heat shock response, and fecundity regulation.

Fecundity of the Far-Eastern flatfishes Pleuronectiformes. 2. Comparative taxonomic analysis: fecundity, abundance and distribution of the species

open access: yesИзвестия ТИНРО, 2017
Comparative analysis is made for absolute, species-specific and total fecundity of 31 flatfish species in the North Pacific from North America to the Japan Sea. Normally the individuals of larger size have higher fecundity. Similarity between the species

Dreaming of fecundity in rural society [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In Albanian village society, the main characteristic of the social status of women, and their only function that meets social approval, is their aptitude for procreation and motherhood. And the Albanian child is first and foremost a son, who will succeed
