Seeing the forest for the genes: using metagenomics to infer the aggregated traits of microbial communities [PDF]
, 2014 Most environments harbor large numbers of microbial taxa with ecologies that remain poorly described and characterizing the functional capabilities of whole communities remains a key challenge in microbial ecology.

Genetic evaluation of fertility using direct and correlated traits [PDF]
, 2003 Poor fertility has become a major reason for involuntary culling of dairy cows in the United Kingdom. Calving interval (CI) and body condition score (BCS) are recorded, heritable, genetically correlated with each other, and could be used to extend the ...

Friendship functions and personality traits
Psihologija, 2009 The goal of our study was exploration of the factor structure of the MFQ-FF inventory on a sample from Serbian population, and the relations of measures from this inventory (friendship functions) with personality traits, as operationalized by the seven factor model proposed by Tellegen and Waller.

Assessing resilience and sensitivity patterns for fish and phytoplankton in French lakes
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2023 Ecosystem vulnerability is crucial information for conservation managers. We assessed the sensitivity and resilience (vulnerability components) patterns of fish and phytoplankton assemblages in French lakes (natural and artificial).

Biological traits of European pond macroinvertebrates [PDF]
, 2011 Whilst biological traits of river macroinvertebrates show unimodal responses to geographic changes in habitat conditions in Europe, we still do not know whether spatial turnover of species result in distinct combinations of biological traits for pond ...

Neural responses to others' pain vary with psychopathic traits in healthy adult males. [PDF]
, 2015 Disrupted empathic processing is a core feature of psychopathy. Neuroimaging data have suggested that individuals with high levels of psychopathic traits show atypical responses to others' pain in a network of brain regions typically recruited during ...

A functional trait perspective on plant invasion [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2012 Global environmental change will affect non-native plant invasions, with profound potential impacts on native plant populations, communities and ecosystems. In this context, we review plant functional traits, particularly those that drive invader abundance (invasiveness) and impacts, as well as the integration of these traits across multiple ecological
