But today we can tell about partial traits within a few days of germination.
The interplay between these partial plastic traits determines the plant's overall response to defoliation, which may contribute to tolerance alleviating negative effects on fitness (McNaughton 1983; Núñez-Farfán et al. 2007).
In the GUI, partial results of trait estimation can be accessed while computing the RSA traits of all selected images.
Controlling for the WMS "trait", partial correlation for NREM/REM and memory retention (RET3 RET1) still revealed unchanged significant results (r = −0.559, p = 0.038), therefore indicating a double association of NREM/REM ratios to memory and general cognitive ability (WMS).
Experimental studies have yielded only partial recoveries of trait distributions after several generations (Conover et al. 2009; Salinas et al. 2012), and modeling simulations have shown that evolutionary changes to maturation schedules can take centuries to recover (Dunlop et al. 2009; Enberg et al. 2009; Kuparinen and Hutchings 2012).
The IC algorithm performs a series of statistical decisions based on partial correlations between traits.
It is usually referred that complete resistance is determined by major resistance gene (R gene) while incomplete resistance involved multiple genes or loci of partial effect (QTLs, Quantitative Trait Loci).
An association rule which expresses patterns of multivariate phenotypes encoding partial correlations between single traits specifies quantitative descriptions of the single traits.
If all partial correlations of two traits conditional on each possible set of other traits were different from zero, an edge was placed between the traits.
To determine the association of plasma adiponectin with the metabolic syndrome and related traits, we calculated partial correlation coefficients of plasma adiponectin with each trait studied (supplementary Table 2, available in an online appendix) adjusted for age and BMI.
