Fitness costs associated with insecticide resistance
Pest Management Science, 2012AbstractInsects are exposed to a variety of stress factors in their environment, and, in many cases for insect pests to agriculture, those factors include toxic chemical insecticides. Coping with the toxicity of insecticides can be costly and requires energy and resource allocation for adaptation and survival.

Herbivory eliminates fitness costs of mutualism exploiters
New Phytologist, 2014Summary A common empirical observation in mutualistic interactions is the persistence of variation in partner quality and, in particular, the persistence of exploitative phenotypes. For mutualisms between hosts and symbionts, most mutualism theory assumes that exploiters always impose fitness costs on their host.

Conformance Checking Using Cost-Based Fitness Analysis
2011 IEEE 15th International Enterprise Distributed Object Computing Conference, 2011The growing complexity of processes in many organizations stimulates the adoption of business process analysis techniques. Typically, such techniques are based on process models and assume that the operational processes in reality conform to these models. However, experience shows that reality often deviates from hand-made models.

Fitness Costs of Warfare for Women
Human Nature, 2014Research to date has focused on fitness costs that coalitional aggression imposes on men and how these may have shaped male cognitive design. This study investigated whether warfare may have shaped female cognitive design by identifying fitness costs that lethal raiding imposes on women and determining how widespread these fitness costs are across a ...

Fitness cost of macrolide resistance in Campylobacter jejuni
International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents, 2009Whether the acquisition of macrolide resistance imposes a biological burden on Campylobacter jejuni is unknown. In this study, C. jejuni macrolide-resistant mutants and the susceptible parent were compared by non-competitive growth, pair-wise competitive growth, and the ability to tolerate a chilling process commonly used in poultry processing plants ...
