... forms well-defined, unstructured curls is desirable. The texture should be moderately soft, although the degree of softness may vary among individuals, however, it should not feel silky and should have a feeling of texture to it, which is sometimes compared to mohair. It should be loose, springy and ...

How many lethal alleles? - University of Edinburgh

... Knowledge of the frequency of lethal mutant alleles in a population is important for our understanding of population genetics and evolution, and yet there have been few attempts to measure their number in wild populations. A new study has revealed unexpectedly low numbers of segregating lethal allel ...

... (see McCauley et al., 1985; Holsinger, 1987). As intragametophytic selfing results in equilibrium proportions in only one generation (McCauley et al., 1985), the assumption of equilibrium conditions for Eq. (3) will always apply. In this way, assuming the absence of other factors (e.g. no selection, ...

The effect of inbreeding on heterozygosity: Inbreeding increases the frequency of homozygotes and reduces the frequency of heterozygotes in a population, compared to the reference population in a former generation. NB! In an inbred population the homozygosity is caused both by ibs alleles from the r ...

This entails using the results of the genetic test, the phenotype, to estimate the genotype. Dogs are permitted to enter the gene pool based on normal results of the test (arr ...

These coordinates are stored as absolute positions in a database of polygon features, represented in the coordinate system of the scene. From this information, we calculate the HoF between any two buildings. As the size of the ...

... 1994). In most such cases the fitness of any individual depends on what other individuals in the population are doing (i.e. it is frequency-dependent) and therefore these models are often allied more closely with phenotypic, continuoustrait game theory than with single locus genetics. As a result, t ...

Philopatry

Philopatry is the “tendency of an organism to stay in, or return to, its home area”. The causes of philopatry are numerous, but natal philopatry, where animals return to their birthplace to breed, is probably the most common form. The term ""philopatry"" derives from the Greek 'home-loving', although in recent years the term has been applied to more than just the animal's birthplace. Recent usage refers to animals returning to the same area to breed despite not being born there, and migratory species that demonstrate site fidelity: reusing stopovers, staging points, and wintering grounds.
