Temperature is a major factor affecting population abundance and individual performance. Net reproductive rate (R0) and intrinsic rate of increase (r) differ in their response to different temperature regimes, and much of the difference is mediated by generation time (Tg). Here, we evaluate the effects of thermal mean and variability on R0, r and Tg, at four population densities in Drosophila m...

Choice of the optimal number and sequence of breeds in a periodic cross was determined by comparing the trade-off between increased utilization of breed differences and decreased utilization of heterosis. It was shown that the change in mean efficiency resulting from adding the next best breed to the best conventional n-breed rotation is always less than the change in efficiency predicted from ...

Generational garbage collection is an established method for creating eecient garbage collectors. Even a simple implementation where all nodes that survive one garbage collection are tenured, i.e., moved to an old generation, works well in strict languages. In a lazy language, however, such an implementation can create severe temporary space leaks. The temporary space leaks appear in programs t...

We examined the association of generational status and age at immigration of the mother with infant mortality in migrant populations in The Netherlands. METHODS Data from Statis...
