Singing can facilitate foreign language learning.
This study presents the first experimental evidence that singing can facilitate short-term paired-associate phrase learning in an unfamiliar language (Hungarian). Sixty adult participants were randomly assigned to one of three "listen-and-repeat" learning conditions: speaking, rhythmic speaking, or singing. Participants in the singing condition showed superior overall performance on a collectio...
متن کاملCan positive frequency dependence facilitate plant coexistence?
In his opinion piece, Pauw [1] advocated a niche theoretical approach for studying the coexistence of plant species that differ in pollinator use, but are otherwise ecologically equivalent. By treating pollinators as a resource, one can apply the conceptual framework of the Lotka–Volterra model, which shows that coexistence can occur when each species limits its own growth rate more than that o...
متن کاملDifferentiation of two closely related species of the genus Empoasca (Hem.: Cicadellidae)
پیش‌تر، گونه‌ای زنجرک از مزارع چغندرقند استان اصفهان به اشتباه به نام Empoasca decipiens (Paoli) گزارش شده است که در این نوشتار نام صحیح آن به‌صورت Empoasca meridiana Zachvatkin اعلام می‌گردد. گونه‌ی اخیر دارای سینونیم شناخته‌تری به نام Empoasca punjabensis Singh-Pruthi می‌باشد. گونه‌های آسیایی خویشاوند گونه‌ی E. decipiens، براساس شکل پیگوفر (pygofer) ژنیتالیای نر ازهم تفکیک می‌گردند، به‌طوری‌ک...
متن کاملThe Causes and Evolutionary Consequences of Mixed Singing in Two Hybridizing Songbird Species (Luscinia spp.)
Bird song plays an important role in the establishment and maintenance of prezygotic reproductive barriers. When two closely related species come into secondary contact, song convergence caused by acquisition of heterospecific songs into the birds' repertoires is often observed. The proximate mechanisms responsible for such mixed singing, and its effect on the speciation process, are poorly und...
متن کاملPredicting Plastid Marker Variation: Can Complete Plastid Genomes from Closely Related Species Help?
Rapidly evolving non-coding plastid regions (NCPs) are currently widely used in evolutionary biology especially in plant systematic studies where NCPs have become one of the most commonly used tools in clarifying species relationships. Currently, the generally small amount of sequence variation provided by NCPs compared to nuclear regions makes plastid phylogeny reconstruction challenging at th...
