However, reef morphology influences the relative value of refuge and forage functions, and reef utilization by benthic, epibenthic, and nektonic organisms.
Within the syntenic interval in the zebrafish genome, we searched for candidate genes implicated in the function for foraging, locomotion, sleep or the development or function of sensation and/or superficial neuromast, by narrowing down the candidate genes with BioMart filter, PHENOTYPE.
Models of foraging intensity as a function of prey metrics, as a function of environmental variables, and as a function of all variables were fitted in R 2.10 [39].
The learning goals of this unit include the development of student understandings of foraging behaviors as a function of food resource depletion, competition, and predation.
Narrow buffers that do not provide suitable habitat to support most forest-dwelling species may function as foraging sites or travel corridors that offer more protection from predators than flying across open spaces.
In this paper I model the net rate of energy intake as a function of foraging efficiency, and thus of locomotor economy; improved economy leads to greater net energy intake.
These sensory pits function in foraging to detect objects touching or close to the bill tips [27] [29].
Indeed, the function of foraging was initially described in the food-search behavior of Drosphilia melanogaster [ 15].
Their functions are diverse but several genes stand out as interesting for their possible roles in oxidative stress, neural function and foraging behavior.
When the parameter (h) is relatively large compared to the range of plausible x-values (foraging success) the fitness function will increase almost linearly with the foraging success (x) after passing the reproduction threshold (e.g. Fig 1., h = 1.00).
