This has implications for comparative studies, since comparisons of the energetic traits of non-migrants with those of migrants may lead to misleading conclusions regarding physiological adaptation.
Energetic traits (e.g. basal metabolic rate) are heritable in at least one wild mammal [weasels (Zub et al. 2012)].
Here, adult sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) were used as a model to test the null hypothesis that fishing is not selective for specific physiological or energetic traits.
We include energetic traits here because, although little studied, they could have important ramifications both for the adaptation of wild mammal populations to their environment and the predictive ability of species distribution models (sensu Humphries et al. 2002).
Because our samples were part of fishery harvests, it was possible to test for the first time the hypothesis that fishing is selective for specific physiological and/or energetic traits by comparing fish that successfully reached spawning grounds with those that were harvested by fisheries.
Traits: Energetic, bright, confident, imaginative Book: Russell's work is stylistically innovative and conceptually playful -- these traits recently won her a MacArthur Fellowship -- and her stories undulate quickly from fantasy to grim reality.
Positive mood states, as a characteristic that describes how we experience positive emotions and interact with others, is characterized by enthusiasm, alertness, energetic, and active traits.
This new screen, which is also the app's main screen that loads upon first launch, will include up four photos, the username, age, location, percentage match, plus other details pulled out of from the user profile, like height, whether they have dogs, have kids, personality traits like "friendly," "energetic," "organized," and more.
Although there is evidence that natural selection acts on OXPHOS genes, the focus has been on detection of directional (positive) selection on specific phylogenetic branches where traits that increase energetic demands appear to have evolved.
Sheehey is basically Deep-O light: he's athletic, energetic, active, and can shoot, all traits of Oladipo as well.
Mr. Michaelis in his biography describes Schulz as extremely generous, devoted to his children, modest and funny, and Joyce as energetic, capable and vibrant, but those traits do not get nearly as much space.
