What About the Natural Numbers?
A prime concern in the design of any general purpose programming language should be the ease and safety of working with natural numbers, particularly in conjunction with discrete data structures. This theme of commitment to the naturals as the basic numeric data type is explored in the context of a lazy functional language. Non-Title
متن کاملConsiderations in Genetic Selection & What About DNA?
A successful beef enterprise is contingent upon the integrated management of genetics, nutrition, health, marketing, and finances. From a genetic perspective, the industry has worked hard to identify and develop prediction tools (EPDs) for a large number of economically important traits. These EPD tools have been very effective in changing the genetic merit of beef breeds, and as a result, many...
متن کاملThinking about evolutionary mechanisms: natural selection.
This paper explores whether natural selection, a putative evolutionary mechanism, and a main one at that, can be characterized on either of the two dominant conceptions of mechanism, due to Glennan and the team of Machamer, Darden, and Craver, that constitute the new mechanistic philosophy'. The results of the analysis are that neither of the dominant conceptions of mechanism adequately capture...
متن کاملMHC studies in nonmodel vertebrates: what have we learned about natural selection in 15 years?
Elucidating how natural selection promotes local adaptation in interaction with migration, genetic drift and mutation is a central aim of evolutionary biology. While several conceptual and practical limitations are still restraining our ability to study these processes at the DNA level, genes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) offer several assets that make them unique candidates for...
متن کاملPhenotypic selection in natural populations: what limits directional selection?
Studies of phenotypic selection document directional selection in many natural populations. What factors reduce total directional selection and the cumulative evolutionary responses to selection? We combine two data sets for phenotypic selection, representing more than 4,600 distinct estimates of selection from 143 studies, to evaluate the potential roles of fitness trade-offs, indirect (correl...
