All five nitric oxide donors induced significant 35-800%) dispersal of biofilms, however, the degree of dispersal and the optimal dispersal conditions varied.
The tephra thinning trend in the proximal area shows a steeper slope than in similar-sized magmatic eruptions, indicating a large tephra volume deposited over a short distance owing to the wet dispersal conditions.
To test this prediction, one might imagine comparing species with very different dispersal strategies, or comparing the same or similar species in two locations with different dispersal conditions.
As mentioned, dispersal is condition- and phenotype-dependent, which may have caused variability in dispersal traits among populations of a species, either through the selection of contrasting dispersal patterns, or by the contrasting expression of butterflies' dispersal traits in different populations due to phenotypic plasticity or behavioural flexibility.
While theoretically feasible for cultivated rice, this is much more difficult for rice CWRs, for which dispersal is conditioned by natural processes.
Theory predicts, and empirical work confirms, that dispersal is condition-dependent [2], [3].
In a previous contribution [ 18], we already showed that the invasion of male killers selects for increased dispersal under conditions of low environmental stochasticity and high dispersal mortality.
This redox-responsive zinc-ion cycling suggests a mechanism for rapid, regulated group I intron dispersal under conditions of oxidative stress.
Removing the lid of the second chamber increased the level of dispersal (ANOVA, lid condition, P < 0.05), but did not alter the relative difference in dispersal from chambers containing food or water (Fig. 3; compare c, d to e, f; ANOVA, interaction between food and lid condition, P = 0.856).
We have performed numerical computations with this model on the evaporation and settling of airborne sarin droplets in characteristic dispersal and atmospheric conditions.
