There was no difference between the brood size manipulation groups or sexes in WBC, but there was a tendency towards fledglings in enlarged broods to have higher H/L ratios than those in reduced broods (Table 3).
Ten striated pink-and-gray rocks form a bulwark at one end; others stand singly or brood in small groups in the ice; at the edge of the rink, one that looks like an elephant flank can be sat upon.
The all-Spanish wine list is fun, with bottles grouped under Young Fresh & Exhilarating, or Brooding Intense & Delicious, but sadly, no years listed.
Three groups of brood treated with either sham control, dead or live fungus, were simultaneously added to five individually colour marked (Edding 780) ant workers, placed in experimental nests containing a brood chamber (as in [ 31]; n = 12 replicates per species).
In the copepods (e.g., sea lice, Cyclops) and the amphipods (e.g., beach fleas), the sexes are mostly separate, copulation is brief and without elaboration, and the female of both groups broods the fertilized eggs.
In auctions, horses are grouped by type: Yearlings, horses in training or brood mares.
AMERICAN higher education has long been fascinated by its make-up, measuring the numbers of individual minority groups and brooding over the impact of unofficial quotas and official affirmative-action campaigns.
In marine groups that brood the eggs by attaching them to the pleopods, the eggs hatch as late-stage larvae, which are often carnivorous (e.g., zoeae and phyllosoma larvae of decapods, antizoeae and pseudozoeae of stomatopods).
All groups produced brood faster in the first 6 weeks of the experimental period than thereafter.
Although knowing exactly how the pellets modified the cort profile of the birds would have been useful, we found a difference between the treatment and the control groups in brood mortality, which suggests a causal role of the hormone treatment.
