Seasonal variation in preference dictates space use in an invasive generalist. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 BACKGROUND:The spatiotemporal distribution of resources is a critical component of realized animal distributions. In agricultural landscapes, space use by generalist consumers is influenced by ephemeral resource availability that may produce behavioral ...

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Bloodstream infections due to repeated vascular access (VA) puncture and circuit connections remain major concerns in hemodialysis. Therefore, we examined current practices for glove, disinfectant, and personal protective equipment (PPE) use according to VA type in national university hospitals in Japan.

Entropy and Selection: Life as an Adaptation for Universe Replication
Complexity, 2017 Natural selection is the strongest known antientropic process in the universe when operating at the biological level and may also operate at the cosmological level.

FITNESS CONSEQUENCES OF SEX-SPECIFIC SELECTION [PDF]
, 2010 Theory suggests that sex-specific selection can facilitate adaptation in sexually reproducing populations. However, sexual conflict theory and recent experiments indicate that sex-specific selection is potentially costly due to sexual antagonism: alleles

The genomic consequences of selection across development
Molecular EcologyUnderstanding how natural selection drives diversification in nature has been at the forefront of biological research for over a century. The main idea is simple: natural selection favours individuals best suited to pass on their genes. However, the journey from birth to reproduction is complex as organisms experience multiple developmental stages ...

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Patients requiring long‐term continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) generally have poor prognoses. This study evaluated whether adding continuous intravenous sodium infusion (cIVNa) is associated with improved hemodynamics and outcomes in patients undergoing long‐term CRRT for ≥ 7 days.

Genotype-by-environment interactions when the social environment contains genes
, 2014 In this chapter we examine the consequences of GSEIs for the evolution of male sexual traits and, more generally, the operation of sexual selection. We start by developing a series of simple quantitative genetic models to illustrate the importance of ...
