Environmental Nutrient Supply Directly Alters Plant Traits but Indirectly Determines Virus Growth Rate
Ecological stoichiometry and resource competition theory both predict that nutrient rates and ratios can alter infectious disease dynamics. Pathogens such as viruses hijack nutrient rich host metabolites to complete multiple steps of their epidemiological cycle. As the synthesis of these molecules requires nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P), environmental supply rates, and ratios of N and P to hos...
متن کاملInbreeding depression in Zebu cattle traits.
The productivity of herds may be negatively affected by inbreeding depression, and it is important to know how intense is this effect on the livestock performance. We performed a comprehensive analysis involving five Zebu breeds reared in Brazil to estimate inbreeding depression in productive and reproductive traits. Inbreeding depression was estimated for 13 traits by including the individual ...
متن کاملstudy of pedigree structure and effects of inbreeding depression on growth traits in lorestan native sheep
inroduction: inbreeding is defined as the probability that two alleles at any locus are identical by descent and occur when related individuals are mated to each other. the initial consequence of inbreeding is inbreeding depression reducing the performance of growth, production, health, fertility, and survival traits. this concern has become more serious in animal breeding nowadays, in which se...
متن کاملDirectly and Indirectly Acting Cholinomimetics
Cholinomimetic drugs can elicit some or all of the effects that acetylcholine (ACh) produces. This class of drugs includes agents that act directly as agonists at cholinoreceptors and agents that act indirectly by inhibiting the enzymatic destruction of endogenous ACh (i.e., cholinesterase inhibitors).The directly acting cholinomimetics can be subdivided into agents that exert their effects pri...
متن کاملThe Genetic Interpretation of Inbreeding Depression and Outbreeding Depression.
Inbreeding with close relatives and outbreeding with members of distant populations can both result in deleterious shifts in the means of fitness-related characters, most likely for very different reasons. Such processes often occur simultaneously and have important implications for the evolution of mating systems, dispersal strategies, and speciation. They are also relevant to the design of br...
