Trophic interactions among three elasmobranch species coexisting in the Oman Sea: implications for resource partitioning
In this study, trophic interactions were studied among three elasmobranches including Iago omanensis, Rhinobatos punctifer and Torpedo sinuspersici coexisting in the depth ranging from 50 to 100 meters in the Oman Sea (Sistan and Balochistan waters). A total of 238 specimens were collected using industrial bottom trawlers of ‘FERDOWS’ during spring and summer,2014 and their stomach contents wer...
متن کاملPredicting resource partitioning and community organization of filter-feeding dabbling ducks from functional morphology.
Resource partitioning due to interspecific differences in phenotype is a key component of ecological and evolutionary theory, but the relationship between morphology and resource use is poorly understood for most species. In addition, ecologists often assume that morphological differences cause distinct resource preferences between species. Using mechanistic models that combine bill morphology ...
متن کاملEcholocation Calls and Morphology in the Mehelyi’s (rhinolophus Mehelyi) and Mediterranean (r. Euryale) Horseshoe Bats: Implications for Resource Partitioning
Rhinolophus euryale and R. mehelyi are morphologically very similar species and their distributions overlap extensively in the Mediterranean basin. We modelled their foraging behaviour using echolocation calls and wing morphology and, assuming niche segregation occurs between the two species, we explored how it is shaped by these factors. Resting frequency of echolocation calls was recorded and...
متن کاملTest Resource Partitioning for SOCs
increasing design sizes have led to highly complex, billion-transistor integrated circuits. Testing these complex ICs to weed out defective parts has become a major challenge. To reduce design and manufacturing costs, testing must be quick and effective. The time it takes to test an IC depends on test data volume. The rapidly increasing number of transistors in ICs has spurred enormous growth i...
متن کاملImplications for Vascular Morphology?
In this study, the distribution patterns of neural crest (NC) cells (NCCs) in the developing vascular system of the chick were thoroughly studied and examined for a correlation with smooth muscle cell differentiation and vascular morphogenesis. For this purpose, we performed long-term lineage tracing using quail-chick chimera techniques and premigratory NCC infection with a replication-incompet...
