Population dynamics of defensive symbionts in aphids.
Vertically transmitted micro-organisms can increase in frequency in host populations by providing net benefits to hosts. While laboratory studies have identified diverse beneficial effects conferred by inherited symbionts of insects, they have not explicitly examined the population dynamics of mutualist symbiont infection within populations. In the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum, the inherited ...
متن کاملCalculating Consciousness Correlates at Multiple Scales of Neocortical Interactions
A lot of what we consider Consciousness (C) is conscious attention to short-term memories (STM). At least some STM are actively processed by highly synchronized patterns of neuronal firings, with enough synchrony to be able to be easily measured by scalp electroen-cephalographic recordings (EEG). Large-scale synchronous macrocolumnar EEG firings is a top-down process developed by a statistical ...
متن کاملInteractions among multiple genomes: tsetse, its symbionts and trypanosomes.
Insect-borne diseases exact a high public health burden and have a devastating impact on livestock and agriculture. To date, control has proved to be exceedingly difficult. One such disease that has plagued sub-Saharan Africa is caused by the protozoan African trypanosomes (Trypanosoma species) and transmitted by tsetse flies (Diptera: Glossinidae). This presentation describes the biology of th...
متن کاملChanges at Multiple Spatial Scales
Change detection on rasterized data is extremely dependent on accurate radiometric and geometric rectification. The development of processing tools able to minimise these requirements has been recognised since the late eighties. In the present paper we present a methodology for detecting changes on multidate satellite images with different radiometric and geometric characteristics via Multireso...
متن کاملMultiple time scales in consumer-resource interactions
Arguments regarding the appropriate form for the rate at which consumers extract biomass from resource populations hinge on relative time scales of underlying processes. Some ecologists argue that, because differential equation models imply instantaneous rates of change, time scale arguments do not hold. Here we point out that this reasoning is fallacious. We define three natural time scales fo...
