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 ...

Fecundity of the Far-Eastern flatfishes Pleuronectiformes. 1. General characterization of fecundity of Pleuronectiformes in the northern part of the Pacific Ocean

open access: yesИзвестия ТИНРО, 2017
Cited and archive data on fecundity of 31 flatfish species are generalized for the North Pacific. General characterization of the fecundity is presented and correlation between absolute individual fecundity of the females and their body length or age is ...

Adult Female Spruce Bedworm, \u3ci\u3eChoristoneura Fumiferana\u3c/i\u3e (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), Dry Weight in Relationship to Pupal Fresh Weight and Case Diameter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
(excerpt) The weights of adult insects are often measured in production and population studies in order to estimate such variables as growth rates, food conversion efficiencies, fecundity, and others.

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 ...

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

IMPACT survey: IMpaired fecundity in Physicians and Association with Clinical Time

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Emergency Physicians Open, 2020
Objective Studies suggest female physicians experience higher rates of infertility than the general population. The overall objective of this study was to determine the rate of impaired fecundity in a sample of female emergency physicians and compare it ...

The costs and benefits of multiple mating in a mostly monandrous wasp [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Funding: NERC DTGThe taxonomically widespread nature of polyandry remains a puzzle. Much of the empirical work regarding the costs and benefits of multiple mating to females has, for obvious reasons, relied on species that are already highly polyandrous.

Pupal and Adult Parameters as Potential Indicators of Cottonwood Leaf Beetle (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) Fecundity and Longevity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Cottonwood leaf beetle, Chrysomela scripta, pupae from a laboratory colony were weighed and monitored through adult emergence, oviposition, and mortality to determine if correlations existed between various pupal or adult parameters and fecundity or ...
