Older admission age was also found to be a predictor in the 5 year cohort.
Thus, it was not possible to include latitude as a predictor in the models because of its correlation to genetic diversity.
Moreover, the bivariate multiple regression model seems inflexible in the sense that it does not include h as a predictor in the equation for d and d as a predictor in the equation for h.
After that, the predicted discrete facies distribution was included as a predictor in the multivariate permeability modeling through the GBM approach.
The objectives of the current study were to identify the most effective upper stem diameter for inclusion in a regular, no-volume-compatibility-constraint, polynomial taper model for radiata pine in New Zealand and to determine the effect, on tree volume prediction precision and bias, of including the upper stem diameter as a predictor in the taper model.
A likelihood ratio test was used to assess the significance of the overall effect of a predictor in the univariate models.
We carried out admixture mapping for grain length using the tropical japonica component estimation in the admixed accessions as a predictor in the linear model.
California least terns typically begin nesting in mid- to late May, so I used the April May–June anomaly (SST-AMJ) as a predictor in the analysis of clutch size and the June–July August anomaly (SST-JJA) as a predictor in the analysis of fledgling productivity.
For this reason we also included the difference between males in an uncontrolled size dimension (i.e. body mass in experiment 1 and pronotum length in experiment 2) as a predictor in the above stepwise logistic regressions to test for the effect of uncontrolled variation in body size on contest outcome.
Conditional regression analyses revealed that the signal at each of the SNPs reported in Table 1 effectively disappeared when the most strongly-associated SNP at that locus was included as a predictor in the regression, suggesting at most one causal variant underlying each signal.
