Evolutionary dynamics of a quantitative trait in a finite asexual population.
In finite populations, mutation limitation and genetic drift can hinder evolutionary diversification. We consider the evolution of a quantitative trait in an asexual population whose size can vary and depends explicitly on the trait. Previous work showed that evolutionary branching is certain ("deterministic branching") above a threshold population size, but uncertain ("stochastic branching") b...
متن کاملA MODEL FOR EVOLUTIONARY DYNAMICS OF WORDS IN A LANGUAGE
Human language, over its evolutionary history, has emerged as one of the fundamental defining characteristic of the modern man. However, this milestone evolutionary process through natural selection has not left any ’linguistic fossils’ that may enable us to trace back the actual course of development of language and its establishment in human societies. Lacking analytical tools to fathom the cr...
متن کاملEvolutionary dynamics of an Arabidopsis insect resistance quantitative trait locus.
Glucosinolate profiles differ among Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes, caused by the composition of alleles at several glucosinolate biosynthetic loci. One of these, GS-Elong, harbors a family of methylthioalkylmalate synthase (MAM) genes that determine the side chain length of aliphatic glucosinolate structures. Fine mapping reveals that GS-Elong constitutes an insect resistance quantitative trait...
متن کاملThe dynamics of a quantitative trait in an age-structured population living in a variable environment.
Time series of rapid phenotypic change have been documented in age-structured populations living in the wild. Researchers are often interested in identifying the processes responsible for such change. We derive an equation to exactly decompose change in the mean value of a phenotypic trait into contributions from fluctuations in the demographic structure and age-specific viability selection, fe...
متن کاملa swot analysis of the english program of a bilingual school in iran
با توجه به جایگاه زبان انگلیسی به عنوان زبانی بین المللی و با در نظر گرفتن این واقعیت که دولت ها و مسئولان آموزش و پرورش در سراسر جهان در حال حاضر احساس نیاز به ایجاد موقعیتی برای کودکان جهت یاد گیری زبان انگلیسی درسنین پایین در مدارس دو زبانه می کنند، تحقیق حاضر با استفاده از مدل swot (قوت ها، ضعف ها، فرصتها و تهدیدها) سعی در ارزیابی مدرسه ای دو زبانه در ایران را دارد. جهت انجام این تحقیق در م...
