Distribution Pattern of the Benthic Meiofaunal Community Along the Depth Gradient of the Western Indian Continental Margin, Including the OMZ and Abyssal Plain

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The continental margin harbors a variety of habitats that support incredible biodiversity and the function of their oceans' ecosystems. The meiofauna is considered a significant component of the benthic faunal community from the polar to the tropical ...

Quantitative Human Paleogenetics: what can ancient DNA tell us about complex trait evolution? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Genetic association data from national biobanks and large-scale association studies have provided new prospects for understanding the genetic evolution of complex traits and diseases in humans. In turn, genomes from ancient human archaeological remains are now easier than ever to obtain, and provide a direct window into changes in frequencies of trait ...

Applying trait-based models to achieve functional targets for theory-driven ecological restoration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Manipulating community assemblages to achieve functional targets is a key component of restoring degraded ecosystems. The response-and-effect trait framework provides a conceptual foundation for translating restoration goals into functional trait targets,

Maladaptive perfectionism and psychological distress:The mediating role of resilience and trait emotional intelligence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
University students experience significantly high levels of psychological distress. Maladaptive perfectionism has been identified as a common trait among students that leads to diagnosed conditions such as depression and anxiety.

Stochastic dynamics of adaptive trait and neutral marker driven by eco-evolutionary feedbacks [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Harmonizing and Searching Macroinvertebrate Trait Information in Alpine Streams: Method and Application–A Case Study in the Three Parallel Rivers Region, China

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
The traits of organisms provide critical information for understanding changes in biodiversity and ecosystem function at large scales. In recent years, trait databases of macroinvertebrates have been developed across continents.

Debugging Trait Errors as Logic Programs [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Rust uses traits to define units of shared behavior. Trait constraints build up an implicit set of first-order hereditary Harrop clauses which is executed by a powerful logic programming engine in the trait system. But that power comes at a cost: the number of traits in Rust libraries is increasing, which puts a growing burden on the trait system to ...

Controlling the Overfitting of Heritability in Genomic Selection through Cross Validation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In genomic selection (GS), all the markers across the entire genome are used to conduct marker-assisted selection such that each quantitative trait locus of complex trait is in linkage disequilibrium with at least one marker.

Dynamic trait distribution as a source for shifts in interaction strength and population density [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Intraspecific trait variation has been increasingly recognized as an important factor in determining species interaction and diversity. Eco-evolutionary models have studied the distribution of trait values within a population that changes over the generations as a result of selection and heritability.

On the Effect of Asymmetrical Trait Inheritance on Models of Trait Evolution [PDF]

open access: yesSystematic Biology, 2019
AbstractCurrent phylogenetic comparative methods modeling quantitative trait evolution generally assume that, during speciation, phenotypes are inherited identically between the two daughter species. This, however, neglects the fact that species consist of a set of individuals, each bearing its own trait value.
