Sentence examples for morph diversity from inspiring English sources

In conclusion, we have shown that in groups of pygmy grasshoppers, colour morph diversity and relatedness enhance survival.

In low density, survival from the first census in mid July to the termination of the experiment in late September was not influenced by colour morph diversity (linear effect: χ = 1.34, d.f. = 1, P = 0.25; non-linear effect: χ2 = 1.73, d.f. = 1, P = 0.19)(Table 2, Figure 3).

We studied experimental groups founded by different numbers of mothers and found that survival was higher in low than in high density, that survival peaked at intermediate colour morph diversity in high density, and that survival was independent of diversity in low density where competition was less intense.

Morph diversity was, however, greater than suggested by previous morphological studies on T. thermophila [ 69].

For instance, island biology studies of enigmatic color morphs in Dendrobates frogs have shown an impressive color morph diversity in the archipelago of Bocas del Toro, outside Panama, compared to mainland Central America [ 76].

Female pygmy grasshoppers mate with multiple males and polyandrous mothers may produce half-sibling offspring that are more colour morph diverse [15], [21], such that sibships vary in genetic relatedness as well as in ecologically important phenotypic diversity.

Among each morph, the genotypic diversity of the samples was investigated at three levels: within an area, between years and between areas.

Under normal conditions, the S. pistillata rigid 3-D architectural system differs from the congener species Pocillopora damicornis [22] that display plastic architectural colonial morphs and striking morphological diversity at the colony level.

The average difference in selection coefficients (s) of the small colony morph at high and low diversity over all the microcosms was 0.343 (±0.078, 95% CI), which is statistically significant by a paired-t test (t = 4.44, d.f. = 10, p = 0.0012; Figure 3).

Malacostracan crustaceans display a large diversity of sizes, morphs and life styles.

The great diversity of color morphs in Presbytis, in particular in P.melalophos, has caused much debate over the past decades.
