Sentence examples for primary reproduction from inspiring English sources
According to this explanation, since the SRE is elicited as an adaptively plastic response to constrained reproduction, semelparous organisms capable of SREs should display 'pure' semelparity only under ideal (unconstrained) conditions; constraints on primary reproduction should result in deferral of reproductive effort to a second bout.
In conclusion, we found that while L. inflata plants had the ability to produce viable seeds in SRE fruits, the pattern in which they did so was inconsistent with the adaptively plastic deferral of reproductive effort seen in animal systems: here, time-constraining primary reproduction resulted in semelparity with reduced secondary reproduction.
An increase in the expression of SREs in response to more severe time constraints during the primary reproductive episode would be consistent with the "adaptive deferral hypothesis" comparable to SREs elicited by restricted primary reproduction in other taxa [ 19, 24].
In examples where SREs are explained by adaptive deferral of reproductive effort, the SRE generally takes place either: (1) shortly after primary reproduction (i.e. within 25 days for S. lineatus; Figure 3); or (2) in the next season, as for the pitcher plant Wyeomyia smithii[ 65].
After primary reproduction finishes, plants normally senesce and become dry, brittle and brown.
We followed the BGs as they expressed primary reproduction, senesced, and expressed SREs (or not).
The primary reproductives have several important functions: reproduction, dispersal, and colony formation.
While the flowers can produce dry fruits, prolific bulblets readily break off from the root system and are the primary means reproduction for some populations.
Binary fission is the primary method of reproduction of prokaryotic organisms.
Most species of Volvox reproduce both asexually and sexually, and some, such as Volvox carteri, switch primary modes of reproduction at least once each year.
The model was driven by three primary parameters representing reproduction, harvest, and natural mortality.
