Radial growth of Cinnamomum kanehirae Hayata displays a larger temperature sensitivity in dominant than codominant trees

Suffix trees for inputs larger than main memory

A suffix tree is a fundamental data structure for string searching algorithms. Unfortunately, when it comes to the use of suffix trees in real-life applications, the current methods for constructing suffix trees do not scale for large inputs. As suffix trees are larger than the input sequences and quickly outgrow the main memory, the first attempts at building large suffix trees focused on algo...

Species delimitation using dominant and codominant multilocus markers.

We propose a method for delimiting species based on dominant or codominant multilocus data using Gaussian clustering with a noise component for outliers. Case studies show that provisional species delimited using Gaussian clustering based on dominant multilocus data correspond well with provisional species delimited based on other data. However, the performance of Gaussian clustering in delimit...

"A Rationality Larger Than The Material Universe"

Codominant analysis of banding data from a dominant marker system by normal mixtures.

Amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLPs) currently are among the most widely used marker systems. In many studies, AFLPs are analyzed on the basis of the presence or absence of a band on an electrophoretic gel. As a result, dominant homozygous individuals are not distinguished from heterozygous individuals, resulting in a considerable loss of information. This article shows how codominan...

Is an ant larger than a lion?

In order to examine the influence exerted by an irrelevant semantic variable in a comparative judgment task, we employed a Stroop-like paradigm. The stimuli were pairs of animal names that were different in their physical and semantic sizes (e.g., ant lion). Participants were asked to judge which of the two words was larger either in physical or in semantic size. Size congruity effect (i.e., fa...
