THE EFFECTS OF PREDATION ON THE AGE AND SIZE OF MATURITY OF PREY [PDF]
Evolution; International Journal of Organic Evolution, 1996 The effects of nonselective predation on the optimal age and size of maturity of their prey are investigated using mathematical models of a simple life history with juvenile and adult stages. Fitness is measured by the product of survival to the adult stage and expected adult reproduction, which is usually an increasing function of size at maturity ...

A New Look at Relationships between Size at Maturity and Asymptotic Size
The American Naturalist, 1998Comparative studies have revealed positive correlations between size at maturity and asymptotic size in several taxa with asymptotic growth after maturity. Using a simple growth model, we show that positive correlations between size at maturity and asymptotic size are predicted for different individuals in the same species if growth costs of ...

Size at maturity of Mediterranean marine fishes
Reviews in Fish Biology and Fisheries, 2013In this review we collected data on the length at maturity (Lm) and maximum reported total length (Lmax) of 565 Mediterranean marine fish stocks, representing 150 species, 68 families, 24 orders and 3 classes. Overall, Lm ranged from 2 cm, for the males of the toothcarp Aphanius fasciatus, to 350 cm, for the females of the bluntnose sixgill shark ...

Optimal Size at Maturity in Size-Structured Populations
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1997Abstract Maturity is a critical point in the life cycle, and determining the optimal age or size at maturity is a classical problem in life history theory. Most organisms spend some time in non-reproductive immature stage. To explain the widespread occurrence of delayed maturity, a number of authors made mathematical models with the age-specific ...

Age and size at maturity in women: A norm of reaction?
American Journal of Human Biology, 2010AbstractObjectives:We present the first review and meta‐analysis of the association between adult stature and age at menarche over a broad range of human societies. We then outline possible biological explanations for observed empirical associations.Methods:We analyzed the association between adult stature and age at menarche in 141 samples from ...

Mechanism-Based Concepts of Size and Maturity in Pharmacokinetics
Annual Review of Pharmacology and Toxicology, 2008Growth and development can be investigated using readily observable demographic factors such as weight and age. Size is the primary covariate and can be referenced to a 70-kg person with allometry using a coefficient of 0.75 for clearance and 1 for volume. The use of these coefficients is supported by fractal geometric concepts and

Maturation of bacteriophage SPPI is imprecise. Although terminally redundant and circularly permuted molecules were always formed, individual molecules varied by more than 200 base pairs from each other.
