Tragic trade‐offs accompany carnivore coexistence in the modern world
Conservation Letters, 2022 Two vital policy aims—biodiversity conservation and food production—are increasingly in conflict. Efforts to evaluate trade‐offs between agriculture and conservation have shaped scholarly discourse around two broad strategies to agricultural production ...

Trade-Offs between Competitive Ability and Resistance to Top-Down Control in Marine Microbes
mSystems, 2023 Trade-offs between competitive ability and resistance to top-down control manifest the “kill-the-winner” hypothesis that explains how mortality caused by protists and viruses can promote bacterial diversity.

Mechanical Engineering, 2018 Many economists predict that a combination of higher tariffs and political uncertainty could negatively impact industrial machinery, robotics, automotive, and other industries. A full-scale trade war could create as many losers as winners, even among engineers.

Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Regeneration of lost appendages is a gradual process in many species, spreading energetic costs of regeneration through time. Energy allocated to the regeneration of lost appendages cannot be used for other purposes and, therefore, commonly elicits ...

Reproductive allocation of two dioecious Rhamnus species in temperate forests of northeast China
iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2014 When a plant increases resource allocation to reproduction from its limited reserves, the allocation to the other functions is reduced. Because of these trade-offs, differences in reproductive allocation are believed to result in relative differences in ...

A method for assessing the frequency of hormetic trade-offs in plants
MethodsX, 2022 Hormesis is a biphasic response to stress, involving low-dose stimulation and high-dose inhibition. Currently, attempts are being made to use the hormetic stimulation of plant parameters to increase resilience to severe stress.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

Robustness Trade-offs in Social-Ecological Systems
International Journal of the Commons, 2007 The governance of common-pool resources can be meaningfully examined from the somewhat broader perspective of the governance of social-ecological systems (SESs).
