The stationary frequency distribution and allelic dynamics in finite populations are analyzed through stochastic simulations in three models of single-locus, multi-allelic sporophytic self-incompatibility. The models differ in the dominance relationships among alleles. In one model, alleles act codominantly in both pollen and style (SSIcod), in the second, alleles form a dominance hierarchy in ...

one of the problems in growing olive trees is pollen-incompatibility. this study was conducted in gorgan climatic condition to determine the self-incompatibility of olive cv koroneiki and to select the suitable pollenizers. randomized complete block design with three replication (trees) and six treatments including open pollination, self pollination, mission, conservalia, sevilana and valanolia...

limitations of our cognitive system? Or are errors indispensable parts of every intelligent system? From the first perspective, all errors are at best unnecessary and at worst harmful. Consider an error commonly made by children. When asked to find the sum of 1/2 and 1/3. the answer is often 2/5. This is called the freshman error of adding numerators and adding denominators {Silver. 1986). But ...

Most individuals possess more than one relevant social identity, but these social identities can be more or less incompatible. Research has demonstrated that incompatibility between an established social identity and a potential new social identity impedes the integration into the new group. We argue that incompatibility is a strong risk factor for disidentification, i.e., a negative self-defin...

For certain mod p Galois representations ρ̄, arising from modular forms on definite unitary groups in two variables, we express the ρ̄-part of completed cohomology Ĥ ρ̄ (away from Σ = Σp ∪Σ0) as a tensor product Πp⊗ΠΣ0 . Here Πp is attached to the universal deformation ρ via the p-adic local Langlands correspondence for GL2(Qp), and ΠΣ0 is given by the local Langlands correspondence in families, o...
