Estimation of bumblebee queen dispersal distances using sibship reconstruction method.
Dispersal ability is a key determinant of the propensity of an organism to cope with habitat fragmentation and climate change. Here we quantify queen dispersal in two common bumblebee species in an arable landscape. Dispersal was measured by taking DNA samples from workers in the spring and summer, and from queens in the following spring, at 14 sites across a landscape. The queens captured in t...

شرکت های بیمه در قبال بیمه گذاران متعهد می شوند که به ازای دریافت حق بیمه، خسارت وارده به بیمه گذاران را جبران نمایند. بنابراین بیمه گر همیشه مبالغی را بر عهده دارد که متعلق به بیمه گذاران است و مربوط به تعهدات آینده می باشد. این مبالغ را ذخایر فنی یا technical reserves گویند. بیمه گر موظف است در پایان سال مالی، هنگام بستن حساب ها، ذخایر فنی را محاسبه و نگهداری کند. پس از وقوع خسارت، بیمه گذار ...
Error tolerant sibship reconstruction in wild populations.
Kinship analysis using genetic data is important for many biological applications, including many in conservation biology. Wide availability of microsatellites has boosted studies in wild populations that rely on the knowledge of kinship, particularly sibling relationships (sibship). While there exist many methods for reconstructing sibling relationships, almost none account for errors and muta...
متن کاملEffective number of breeders from sibship reconstruction: empirical evaluations using hatchery steelhead
Effective population size (Ne ) is among the most important metrics in evolutionary biology. In natural populations, it is often difficult to collect adequate demographic data to calculate Ne directly. Consequently, genetic methods to estimate Ne have been developed. Two Ne estimators based on sibship reconstruction using multilocus genotype data have been developed in recent years: sibship ass...
متن کاملSibship reconstruction from genetic data with typing errors.
Likelihood methods have been developed to partition individuals in a sample into full-sib and half-sib families using genetic marker data without parental information. They invariably make the critical assumption that marker data are free of genotyping errors and mutations and are thus completely reliable in inferring sibships. Unfortunately, however, this assumption is rarely tenable for virtu...
