Sentence examples for fundamental host range from inspiring English sources

There are instances of host use patterns shifting among plants within the fundamental host range (all plants that can be used by an agent) but evolution of fundamental host range has not been detected in weed biological control agents (van Klinken and Edwards 2002), and the stability of the fundamental host range is one reason for the excellent safety record of weed biocontrol (Pemberton 2000).

The fundamental host range of T. jacobaeae has been estimated by host specificity tests conducted prior to introduction in New Zealand (Miller 1929; Cameron 1935), the United States (Parker 1960), and Canada (Bucher and Harris 1961).

Similarly, nontarget species that are accepted for oviposition and suitable for larval development, that is, that are within the fundamental host range of a biological control agent, may have to be considered to experience some level of nontarget effects even if they occur outside the climatic niche occupied by the biological control agent in the native range.

The realized host range is much narrower than the fundamental host range; reports of host use in Oregon environments include natives of Europe (J. vulgaris, S. vulgaris, S. sylvaticus) and North America (S. triangularis, Packera pseudaurea var. pseudaurea) (Diehl and McEvoy 1990; Harris and McEvoy 1995; McEvoy et al. 2008).

The fundamental (=genetically determined) host range appears to be broad, including Jacobaea, Senecio, Packera, Erechtites, and Petasites species; it is constrained by phylogeny, chemistry, and perhaps plant architecture and phenology (Wink and Legal 2001; Bernays et al. 2004).

In this association a species host range is fundamental and often measured using an estimate of phylogenetic concordance between species.

The parasite exhibits a complex life cycle, a broad host range, and fundamental mechanisms of gene regulation remain unknown.

The viral genetic and phenotypic diversity documented in arthropods here therefore provides a new perspective on fundamental questions of virus origins, diversity, host range, genome evolution, and disease emergence.

To better understand how this highly diverse and scattered species complex has evolved and diverged without losing its fundamental pathological qualities, we sequenced the genomes of three additional broad host range strains from other phylotypes, namely: American strain CFBP2957 (IIA-36), African strain CMR15 (III-29) and Indonesian strain PSI07 (IV-10).

Flaviviruses present substantial differences in their host range and transmissibility.

The narrow host range of HCV remains incompletely understood.
