High reproductive skew, i.e., a highly unequal partitioning of reproduction, has as yet been described for only a handful of species ("functional monogyny"; [ 9]).
We suggest that areas with high reproductive output of several sympatric bird species could be selected based on the reproduction-based habitat quality of the marsh harrier.
Small mammals of the Arctic tundra have high reproductive rates.
This, coupled with high fecundity, gives the order a high reproductive potential.
Maine lobstermen claim they employ stricter conservation measures; large lobsters, for example, must be released because they have high reproductive value.
The fundamental traits of fugitive species excellent dispersal, high reproductive output, and a brief lifetime compensate for their reduced competitive prowess (see r-selected species).
The fundamental traits of fugitive species excellent dispersal, high reproductive output, and a brief lifetime compensate for their reduced competitive prowess.
A young and comely pregnant woman, for example, would have a high reproductive value but zero current fertility potential — she is clearly already taken.
We found that Hdac6 transgenic mice are healthy and actually show high reproductive performance.
EPNs have a high reproductive potential and a broad host range and are easily applied with conventional spraying equipment.
Since the pest has high reproductive rate, it causes severe defoliation to host plants in native habitats.
