Sentence examples for morphological traits at from inspiring English sources

Lampreys are a key species to study the evolution of morphological traits at the emergence of craniates (or vertebrates).

Buffering at a specific time during development might be important for developmental stability, so we evaluated the effect of a short-term exposure to a heat stress on morphological traits at the five times: one, three, five, seven, or nine days after the egg introduction (DAEI).

Thus, the combined results suggest that there is at least the potential, genetically, for females to utilize a good and/or a compatible genes process when choosing mates to procure genetic benefits for the offspring, based on these morphological traits, at least at the standard rearing temperature.

Remarkable patterns of convergence in the evolution of morphological traits at the genetic level have also been recently discovered in cultivated plants (Ryan and Delhaize 2010; Lin et al. 2012), insects (Reed et al. 2011), fish (Colosimo et al. 2005; Hohenlohe et al. 2010; Colombo et al. 2013) and other vertebrates (reviewed by Hoekstra 2006).

We investigated if fig and pollinator size were morphological traits associated at the subsection/genus level with plant-pollinator phylogenetic incongruence.

Among the morphological traits, stem colour at maturity, stem pigmentation at flowering time and pod distribution contributed to population heterogeneity in most cases.

A limited number of studies linked the effects of plant exposure to SWCNTs on morphological traits with modifications at the molecular level.

Other non-destructive measurements of morphological traits were obtained at 30 and 60 days after germination (Table  9).

Plants have consistently more exaggerated morphological traits than insects at high trait magnitudes and in some cases less exaggerated traits than insects at smaller trait magnitudes.

Whilst shared morphological traits could reflect convergence, at least at a superficial level, the quite different gross skeletal architectures of gardineriids and micrabaciids are each strikingly reminiscent of more ancient coral and coral-like fossils.

Using a hierarchical nested design, we measured quarterly nine physiological traits, and monthly ten morphological traits from 9720 individuals at 27 plots along water depth gradients in Lake Erhai, China.
