Sentence examples for incipient population from inspiring English sources

This paper evaluates the effectiveness of small dams to contain the advance of an incipient population of the invasive Procambarus clarkii in a mountain stream harboring the European southernmost population of the endangered Austropotamobius pallipes.

In such cases, particularly for polygynous species where only a fraction of the males successfully mate, female skewed release groups may increase the growth rate of the incipient population (Sigg et al. 2005; Lenz et al. 2007).

Successful reproduction of migrants may be common, caused by relaxed selection against non-natives resulting in non-native offspring, or hybrid offspring with admixed ancestry which break down incipient population differentiation [ 5, 43].

Particularly for migratory species, natural selection of the founding individuals from the source population(s) may have important consequences for the adaptive evolution of the incipient population (Quinn et al. 2001); this process would be artificialized by randomly choosing individuals to actively transplant.

Effective management of Lepidium requires detailed, accurate maps of its distribution, as may be provided by remote sensing, to contain existing infestations and eradicate incipient populations.

Results of this study add to a limited quantitative database on site-specific salinity factors governing plant invasions by showing the potential for these populations to behave invasively under saline conditions and, thus, potential for soil salinity assessment to predict incipient populations.

However, given the difficulties for carrying out dam construction in natural habitats, data about their effectiveness in incipient invading populations are practically nonexistent.

(2012) is an attempt to resolve this question, although it deals with only incipient phases of population divergence and not with speciation.
