Direct and indirect selection and index selection in broiler line [PDF]
Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2014 Selection methods were compared direct and indirect selection and index selection related to productive traits, using information from 1962 female and 3870 male in maternal and paternal broiler line.

Adaptive evolvability through direct selection instead of indirect, second‐order selection [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, 2021 AbstractCan evolvability itself be the product of adaptive evolution? To answer this question is challenging, because any DNA mutation that alters only evolvability is subject to indirect, “second order” selection on the future effects of this mutation.

Indirect selection of Cre1 gene in winter wheat populations [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2011 The nematodes are important biotic constraint in rain-fed wheat production systems. In Turkey, they is found in 75.0% of soil samples in Central Anatolia with the dominant species being Heterodera filipjevi.

Indirect Selection on Flower Color in Silene littorea. [PDF]
Front Plant Sci, 2020 Flower color, as other floral traits, may suffer conflicting selective pressures mediated by both mutualists and antagonists. The maintenance of intraspecific flower color variability has been usually explained as a result of direct selection by biotic agents. However, flower color might also be under indirect selection through correlated traits, since

A Wright–Fisher model with indirect selection [PDF]
Journal of Mathematical Biology, 2015 We study a generalization of the Wright--Fisher model in which some individuals adopt a behavior that is harmful to others without any direct advantage for themselves. This model is motivated by studies of spiteful behavior in nature, including several species of parasitoid hymenoptera in which sperm-depleted males continue to mate de- spite not being ...

Resolving Indirect Referring Expressions for Entity Selection
Proceedings of the 61st Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (Volume 1: Long Papers), 2023 Recent advances in language modeling have enabled new conversational systems. In particular, it is often desirable for people to make choices among specified options when using such systems. We address this problem of reference resolution, when people use natural expressions to choose between the entities.

On Selective Indirect Tax Reform in Developing Countries [PDF]
Journal of Public Economics, 2002 The current consensus on indirect tax reform in developing countries favors a reduction in trade taxes with an increase in VAT to raise revenue. The theoretical results on selective reform that underlie this consensus are, however, derived from partial models that ignore the existence of an informal economy. Once the incomplete coverage of VAT due to

Runaway sexual selection without genetic correlations : social environments and flexible mate choice initiate and enhance the Fisher process [PDF]
, 2012 Female mating preferences are often flexible, reflecting the social environment in which they are expressed. Associated indirect genetic effects (IGEs) can affect the rate and direction of evolutionary change, but sexual selection models do not capture ...

Multivariate Genomic Selection and Potential of Rapid Indirect Selection with Speed Breeding in Spring Wheat [PDF]
, 2019 Genomic selection (GS) can be effective in breeding for quantitative traits, such as yield, by reducing the selection cycle duration. Speed breeding (SB) uses extended photoperiod and temperature control to enable rapid generation advancement.
