Do plant traits predict the competitive abilities of closely related species?
Invasive species are a threat to every ecosystem. There is a strong incentive to predict which species will become invasive before they become too widespread and unmanageable. Different approaches have been advocated to assess invasive species potential. These include examining plant functional traits, quantifying competitive ability and phylogenetic comparison. In this study, we conducted expe...
متن کاملDo species' traits predict recent shifts at expanding range edges?
Although some organisms have moved to higher elevations and latitudes in response to recent climate change, there is little consensus regarding the capacity of different species to track rapid climate change via range shifts. Understanding species' abilities to shift ranges has important implications for assessing extinction risk and predicting future community structure. At an expanding front,...
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 کاملWhy do spatial abilities predict mathematical performance?
Spatial ability predicts performance in mathematics and eventual expertise in science, technology and engineering. Spatial skills have also been shown to rely on neuronal networks partially shared with mathematics. Understanding the nature of this association can inform educational practices and intervention for mathematical underperformance. Using data on two aspects of spatial ability and thr...
متن کاملComparative genomic and functional analysis reveal conservation of plant growth promoting traits in Paenibacillus polymyxa and its closely related species.
Paenibacillus polymyxa has widely been studied as a model of plant-growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR). Here, the genome sequences of 9 P. polymyxa strains, together with 26 other sequenced Paenibacillus spp., were comparatively studied. Phylogenetic analysis of the concatenated 244 single-copy core genes suggests that the 9 P. polymyxa strains and 5 other Paenibacillus spp., isolated from di...
