Our study suggests that management of pine savannas with frequent (≤3 years) prescribed fire-return intervals can be beneficial to turkeys by providing early-successional vegetation for nest site establishment.
The dispersal distances reported by Lepais et al. [50] include several dispersal steps between departure at the old nest and establishment of a new nest, i.e. the searches for mates, hibernating places and nest sites, and the foraging range.
The birds were kept in an outdoor aviary, enabling frequent nest controls and establishment of laying order of the eggs within a clutch, as well as the sex of the embryos shortly after clutch completion.
Plots were divided into subplots to allow for the establishment of nested project-specific treatments and destructive measurements.
This underestimation of standard errors will be examined in the analyses by comparing the results for the OLS regression with the hierarchical linear models, where the nesting of individuals in establishments, and establishments in cities or communities are taken into consideration.
This progressive habitat saturation makes independent colony foundation increasingly difficult, promoting the reacceptance of queens by the maternal colony and establishment of new nests by budding, which in turn leads to the formation of large networks of nests [ 42].
Establishment of single-cell nested RT-PCR analysis method in pancreatic beta cells Single-cell nested RT-PCR analysis is a well established technique for studying haemopoietic cells [ 27], so we applied this to beta cells.
We used ground nets and noose poles to capture males and females during the period after territory establishment and prior to nesting (~ 1 May – 20 May).
They found that 12% of 232 introduced species have become established in the USA, and that the probability of establishment was influenced by propagule pressure and nesting habit of ant species.
