Selection strategies for randomly partitioned genetic replicators [PDF]
, 2019 The amplification cycle of many replicators (natural or artificial) involves the usage of a host compartment, inside of which the replicator express phenotypic compounds necessary to carry out its genetic replication.

Fungal community assembly in drought-stressed sorghum shows stochasticity, selection, and universal ecological dynamics. [PDF]
, 2020 Community assembly of crop-associated fungi is thought to be strongly influenced by deterministic selection exerted by the plant host, rather than stochastic processes.

A Study of Spiders (Araneae) on Maple Trees (Acer Spp.) [PDF]
, 2017 We began this study to determine whether spider species occur randomly on maple species or whether they are selective in picking either their host species or their position on that host.

European Journal of Entomology, 2006 This paper reports the results of a comparative laboratory analysis of the behavioural responses of the egg parasitoid Trissolcus basalis (Wollaston) (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) to semiochemical cues from four species of pentatomid bugs, Nezara viridula ...

European Journal of Entomology, 2012 Age of host eggs can be a limiting factor for egg parasitoids. It is expected that old eggs are less preferred by egg parasitoids, which can discriminate between eggs of different ages by using chemical cues.

Host-specific cues cause differential attractiveness of Kenyan men to the African malaria vector Anopheles gambiae [PDF]
, 2002 Background Many studies have suggested that variability in the attractiveness of humans to host-seeking mosquitoes is caused by differences in the make-up of body emanations, and olfactory signals in particular.

Holobiont Evolution: Mathematical Model with Vertical vs. Horizontal Microbiome Transmission [PDF]
, 2020 A holobiont is a composite organism consisting of a host together with its microbiome, such as a coral with its zooxanthellae. To explain the often intimate integration between hosts and their microbiomes, some investigators contend that selection ...

Host-selective toxins: agents of compatibility. [PDF]
The Plant Cell, 1996 20 HSTs have been documented. In general, HSTs are deter? minants of host range or specificity in that plant species, varieties, or genotypes sensitive to an HST are those that are susceptible to the producing pathogen. HSTs have been criti? cal factors in two major epidemics of crops in the United States in the 20th century, including the Southern ...
