Sunni law is essentially a system of inheritance by male agnate relatives, or ʿaṣabah i.e., relatives who, if they are more than one degree removed from the deceased, trace their connection to the deceased through male links.
The latter may suggest a male linked with a military fraction.
Considering the six parent-offspring cohort pairs assessed with 14 microsatellites, a total of 341 pairs (297 and 44 female and male links, respectively) and 420 pairs (370 and 50 female and male parent-offspring links) were resolved at the 95%and80%0% thresholds, respectively (Table 4, Additional file 7).
In fact, most of the aggression we observed within the spider monkey group was directed toward this particular subadult male [Link et al., unpublished data], and thus, his pervasive participation in infanticide-related behaviors could conceivably reflect "redirected aggression".
Areas we predicted suitable for male dispersal linked all patches, but some potential core areas appear to be relatively isolated for females.
The guards watched as male dancers, linked up in chains, their hands on each other's shoulders as in a carnaval line, swept through the crowd like slam dancers at a punk club.
Aromatase inhibitors have shown in particular that estrogens are essential also in males for skeletal maturation and bone mineralization, development of masculine dendritic morphology in male brain linked to mating behaviour, and testicular function.
A pair of male elders, linked by a single skirt to look like a centaur with two torsos (or the pushmi-pullyu of the Doctor Dolittle children's books), single out one woman to dance.
Moreover, markers located on the two linkage groups in the male were linked with a LOD threshold of 4.0.
It might be predicted therefore that inbreeding depression for male traits linked to fitness is more severe under chemical stress (Meagher et al. 2000; Armbruster and Reed 2005).
Lastly, we show that exposure to arsenic in males is linked to oligozoospermia via analysis of pertinent metabolomic biomarkers [ 10].
