VARIATION IN LEAF MORPHOLOGY OF PARROTIA PERSICA ALONG AN ELEVATIONAL GRADIENT IN EASTERN MAZANDARAN PROVINCE (N. IRAN)
In order to investigate the variation within and among populations of Parrotia persica C.A. Meyer based on leaf morphological traits, three populations were selected from Behshar area, in the east of Mazandaran Province. The populations selected along a transect in different altitudes of 182, 340, 540 meter above the sea level, respectively. In each population, 10 trees were selected and some l...
متن کاملVariation in seed dispersal along an elevational gradient in Great Smoky Mountains National Park
Seed dispersal by ants is ecologically important and geographically widespread as 20–50% of all herbaceous species in eastern deciduous forests are dispersed by ants, but we know little about how or why such interactions vary geographically. In this paper, we examined variation in seed dispersal by ants along an extensive elevational gradient (256–2025 m) in the Great Smoky Mountains National P...
متن کاملVariation in nutrient use in ant assemblages along an extensive elevational gradient on Mt Kilimanjaro
Aim We used the extensive climatic and land-use gradient on Mt Kilimanjaro, Tanzania, to study large-scale variation of nutrient use in ground-foraging ant communities. In particular, we tested the hypothesis that recruitment of ants to six different nutrients would vary with elevation and between land-use regimes. We also tested whether the nutrient space (number and evenness of nutrients) use...
متن کاملPatterns and drivers of intraspecific variation in avian life history along elevational gradients: a meta-analysis.
Elevational gradients provide powerful natural systems for testing hypotheses regarding the role of environmental variation in the evolution of life-history strategies. Case studies have revealed shifts towards slower life histories in organisms living at high elevations yet no synthetic analyses exist of elevational variation in life-history traits for major vertebrate clades. We examined (i) ...
متن کامل: metadiscourse in introduction sections of applied linguistics and physics research articles: exploring variation in frequency and type
abstract in written mode of language, metadiscourse markers are used commonly to help writers in general and academic writers in particular to produce coherent and professional texts. the purpose of the present study was to compare introduction sections of applied linguistics and physics articles regarding their use of interactive and interactional metadiscourse markers based on the model pro...
