15 صفحه اولModeling Populations of Flour Beetles
Mathematical models can be used to describe and predict the complex dynamics of biological phenomena such as animal populations. There is a trade-off between the amount of mathematical and biological complexity one can include in a model; fewer simplifications lead to a more biologically accurate model, but may come at the cost of adding dimensions or parameters. This increases the difficulty o...
متن کاملGenetic Homeostasis and Developmental Rate in Tribolium.
ENETIC analysis of a variety of traits in populations of several species has revealed a similar pattern for many traits which are important components of fitness. In general such characters have intermediate optima, and prolonged artificial selection for extreme expression leads to a reduction in fitness. LERNER (1954, 1958) has postulated that one possible mechanism for natural selection in fa...

in current study, 63 samples of bat populations collected from differ regions were used for evaluating the geographic variations. twenty cranial and dental characters for traditional morphometric and landmarks method on the ventral, dorsal skull and mandible for geometry morphometric studies were used. statistical analyses of traditional morphometric and geometry morphometric data indicated low...
Directional versus Stabilizing Selection for Developmental Time in Natural and Laboratory Populations of Flour Beetles.
Artificial selection for fast development is successful in long-established laboratory populations of Tribolium, but not in strains recently derived from natural populations. It is shown that selection against fast development in dense, synchronized cultures operates through cannibalism of early pupae by larvae. Since standard husbandry procedures for laboratory strains involve the periodic cre...
