Powerful statistical models have been developed in the past two decades to detect QTLs and study their biological function in a diverse array of phenotypic traits [ 3- 9].
We further examine a diverse array of life-history traits of the studied 45 species, and their association with lineage-specific synonymous substitution rates (dS) and α.
But the DS as a whole, with its diverse array of affected morphological traits, clearly cannot be caused simply by alterations of adrenal function.
Reich et al. (1997), and several other studies (e.g. Hikosaka and Hirose 2001; Hikosaka 2004; Takashima et al. 2004; Wright et al. 2004, 2005; Muller et al. 2011) have reported a tight relationship between net photosynthesis and leaf %N for many species across a diverse array of habitats when these traits are expressed on a mass basis.
The recruits represent a diverse array of body types and athletic stamina — traits that Hergott's class exhibited immediately upon stepping off the bus into the shouted orders of instructors who behaved like drill sergeants.
Though there is an abundant and diverse array of bird species utilizing the wetlands, migrating traits of these avifauna species have changed.
Variation in Pgi has been associated with flight performance, thermal adaptation and other fitness-related traits in a diverse array of organisms [ 12, 13], including arthropods [ 14- 18], bacteria [ 19], molluscs [ 20], and plants [ 21].
Several studies, from a phylogenetically diverse array of organisms, show that the parallel evolution of phenotypic traits often occurs through recurrent alterations in the same genes [ 12, 23, 71– 71].
Studies using many mapping populations derived from a diverse array of accessions will enable progress towards an understanding of the global genetic architecture of complex traits (Tonsor et al., 2005).
Saturday afternoon boasts a typically diverse array of performances.
