Sentence examples similar to model for mating from inspiring English sources

The fitted models for mating success (Second set of models: model 6 to 13, Table 1) included the effects of body size, dominance rank, F0min, and Dfmin.

Planktonic (shaking) and SL-biofilm cells were visualized through microscopy in parallel prior to plating to determine whether the cellular morphology was consistent with known models for mating, i.e., that it requires cell-to-cell contact and involves the formation of cytosolic bridges and/or cellular fusion events [ 58].

Associated phenomena, namely self-sacrifice and genital damage to the male, are best studied in spiders which are ideal model organisms for mating system research [ 7].

We propose a computational model of mating strategies for controlled animal breeding programs.

We assume that male marginal fertility is positive at any age where realized male fertility is nonzero (this assumption holds for all standard models of mating pair formation [34]).

A cassette model for mating-type switching has been proposed and further experimentally verified to explain haplo-selfing in S. cerevisiae (Hicks et al. 1977; Herskowitz 1988; Herskowitz et al. 1992).

The good-sperm hypothesis, an analogue of the pre-copulatory good-genes model for mate choice, also suggests that females will accrue genetic quality for their offspring through facilitation of sperm competition, in this case if males with higher sperm competitive ability sire offspring with higher viability [ 8, 9].

Taken together, these finding suggest a model for mate recognition in the B. plicatilis species complex: A relatively simple set of extracellular globular coiled proteins encoded by mmr-b genes expose a variety of phosphorylated and glycosylated residues that serve as ligands to a receptor on the surface of males used to trigger copulation.

The percentage of variance explained by these models were 54%, 29% and 31% for mating success, courtship duration and spermatophore attachment duration respectively.

Teleost fish have also been used frequently as models for mate-choice experiments [ 5], and visual cues have often been shown to play an important (but not exclusive) role in mate attraction (for example, body colors, fin shapes, courtship displays, and so on).

This may sometimes be mistaken for mating.
