The traits of “trait ecologists”: An analysis of the use of trait and functional trait terminology [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2021 AbstractTrait and functional trait approaches have revolutionized ecology improving our understanding of community assembly, species coexistence, and biodiversity loss. Focusing on traits promotes comparability across spatial and organizational scales, but terms must be used consistently.

Detecting natural selection in trait-trait coevolution [PDF]
BMC Ecology and Evolution, 2021 ABSTRACTNo phenotypic trait evolves independently of all other traits, but the cause of trait-trait coevolution is poorly understood. While the coevolution could arise simply from pleiotropic mutations that simultaneously affect the traits concerned, it could also result from multivariate natural selection favoring certain trait relationships.

The Journal of Object Technology, 2006 Flattening TraitsTraits are fine-grained components that can be used to compose classes, while avoiding many of the problems of multiple inheritance and mixin-based approaches. Since most implementations of traits have focused on dynamically-typed languages, the question naturally arises, how can one best introduce traits to statically-typed languages,

Proceedings of TDWG, 2017 Biodiversity data are well-indexed by taxonomic names. While names reconciliation remains a challenge, there has been tremendous progress in recent years, and integration with available phylogenetic information can support sophisticated analyses for evolutionary questions.

Genome editing in maize directed by CRISPR–Cas9 ribonucleoprotein complexes
Nature Communications, 2016 Genome editing in plants typically requires the expression of Cas9 and guide RNA from stably transformed plasmid DNA. Here, the authors show that successful editing can be achieved after delivery of the Cas9-guide RNA complex as a ribonucleoprotein to ...

NeuroImage, 2021 The parcellation of the brain's cortical surface into anatomically and/or functionally distinct areas is a topic of ongoing investigation and interest. We provide digital versions of six classical human brain atlases in common MRI space.

Stochastic dynamics of adaptive trait and neutral marker driven by eco-evolutionary feedbacks [PDF]
, 2014 How the neutral diversity is affected by selection and adaptation is investigated in an eco-evolutionary framework. In our model, we study a finite population in continuous time, where each individual is characterized by a trait under selection and a ...

Multiscale examination of cytoarchitectonic similarity and human brain connectivity [PDF]
Network Neuroscience, 2018 The human brain comprises an efficient communication network, with its macroscale connectome organization argued to be directly associated with the underlying microscale organization of the cortex.
