Interactions With Plant Defences Isolate Sympatric Populations of an Herbivorous Mite
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Host plant specialisation can promote evolutionary divergence between herbivore populations associated with different plant species. While the mechanisms by which specialist species exploit their hosts have been studied widely across taxa, less is known ...

Population Dynamics in River Networks [PDF]
Journal of Nonlinear Science, 2019 Natural rivers connect to each other to form networks. The geometric structure of a river network can significantly influence spatial dynamics of populations in the system. We consider a process-oriented model to describe population dynamics in river networks of trees, establish the fundamental theories of the corresponding parabolic problems and ...

BMC Public Health, 2020 Background Of all lifestyle behaviours, smoking caused the most deaths in the last century. Because of the time lag between the act of smoking and dying from smoking, and because males generally take up smoking before females do, male and female smoking ...

A Dynamical Model for Human Population [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1974 We analyze a simple, deterministic model of the dynamics of population changes in a bisexual, reproductive system based on marriage. Our model is one of a general class, special cases of which have been previously discussed within the framework of population biology by D. G. Kendall, L. A. Goodman, J. H. Pollard, and others.

Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association, 2007 This chapter reviews aspects of population dynamics that may be conceptually important for biological control of mosquitoes. Density dependent population regulation among immature stages has important implications for biological control of mosquito populations, primarily because it can lead to compensatory or overcompensatory mortality due to additions

Juvenile Spider Mites Induce Salicylate Defenses, but Not Jasmonate Defenses, Unlike Adults
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 When plants detect herbivores they strengthen their defenses. As a consequence, some herbivores evolved the means to suppress these defenses. Research on induction and suppression of plant defenses usually makes use of particular life stages of ...

Stochastic Gain in Population Dynamics [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2004 We introduce an extension of the usual replicator dynamics to adaptive learning rates. We show that a population with a dynamic learning rate can gain an increased average payoff in transient phases and can also exploit external noise, leading the system away from the Nash equilibrium, in a reasonance-like fashion.

BMJ Open, 2023 Introduction Global morbidity from enteric infections and diarrhoea remains high in children in low-income and middle-income countries, despite significant investment over recent decades in health systems and water and sanitation infrastructure.

Annals of Human Biology, 2001 Time-series analysis of parish register series can be used to study human population dynamics at three different levels: (i) The metapopulation of preindustrial rural England. A short wavelength, exogenous oscillation in the burials series of 404 parishes can be detected which, it is suggested, was driven by a cycle of malnutrition associated with ...
