Sentence examples for partner population from inspiring English sources

In and, frequently one of the populations (green) either formed a column or became covered by the partner population (red).

However, cooperative benefits are unlikely to be available in large excess because of the potential fitness cost of generating benefits and because of competition for these benefits in the partner population.

Equation (3) states that S, the amount of limiting nutrient in a diffusion grid, depends on three processes: i) diffusion of nutrient with diffusion constant D, ii) uptake of nutrients (Walther et al., 2005) by cells (U), and iii) in cooperative communities, release of nutrients by the partner population (Q).

The fitness model shows that if two partner populations inhibit each other sufficiently strongly compared to their basal fitness, population ratios may diverge rapidly.

Only in cooperation conferring large fitness benefits to both partners, the two partner populations appeared to be extensively 'intermixed', manifested as the two different cell types successively piling on top of each other.

Similarly, specialized mutualistic lineages should be vulnerable to perturbations in partner populations [ 30- 36] and the geographic distribution and spread of specialized mutualists could be limited by partner availability [ 37- 44].

When male lizards largely outnumber females, they direct their aggressiveness toward mating partners, population biologists report.

Some forced displacement did result from conflict land confiscations, and economic migration was likely ongoing, but we do not feel that these movements would significantly change the implementing partners' population figures [ 20].

It has been suggested that the mutualism is characteristic of agronomic grasses and that differential rates of gene flow between both partners' populations are expected to disrupt the specificity of the association and, thus, the mutualism in wild grasses.

The study was based on a triangulation of data collection methods in the three study districts: surveys in venues where people meet new sexual partners, population-based surveys and focus group discussions.

As discussed above, the existence of structured populations or the genetic correspondence between both partners' populations could be indicative of genetic specificity (Thompson 2005), but the impacts of gene flow on mutualism effectiveness, compatibility and endophyte transmission for the endophyte-grass symbiosis are largely unknown.
