Ageratina adenophora was reported to allocate greater amounts of nitrogen to photosynthesis (growth) and reduced allocation to cell walls (defence), thus resulting in an increase in its growth and vigour in the introduced ranges (Feng et al. 2009, 2011).
The increased partitioning of biomass to shoots and reduced allocation to roots with increasing age, found in trial 1, has been reported for young hybrid poplars grown from cuttings from plantation stock in North America (Wullschleger et al. 2005).
That is, the following inequality at symmetric Nash equilibrium p will determine whether increased or reduced allocation will be beneficial to a given generator g: begin{aligned} &S_{g} > S_{g}'~~iff~~frac{1}{|G|} &left[left(D_{max} - D_{min}right)left 1-frac{p}{P_{max}}right)+D_{min}right]>frac{p}{2a_{g}} end{aleft 1-frac{p
As the UEFA coefficient that determines the number of places per country is based upon performances in European competition over the previous five years, England had a reduced allocation until 1995.
Conversely, specificity may be seen as limiting immune defence costs by partitioning resources into a particular defence component, while reducing allocation to others (Frank 2000).
But presumably the reduced allocation of funds after the disintegration of the USSR had the effect that fewer workers were sent to Moscow for cancer treatment.
The correlation between these processes suggests that reduced allocation of resources to the cue stimulus, and therefore reduced expectancy for the upcoming go/no-go stimulus, is associated with reduced strength in inhibitory processing [ 17, 45, 51].
This can especially occur if environmental stress negatively affects storage, either by reducing allocation to storage due to limited resource uptake or by depleting previously stored resources (e.g. caused by investment in increased elongation (Huber et al. 2012; Xu et al. 2013).
Blood Pb concentrations at time of testing were associated with higher rates of false alarms during the task and with reduced amplitude of the P3 wave elicited by go and no-go stimuli, suggesting reduced allocation of cognitive resources for task processing.
Significantly, most of the candidate genes discussed above cause alterations to attractive structures (perianth) and male function (stamen development) consistent with the relaxation of selection for showy flowers, reduced allocation to pollen production and the loss of herkogamy (stigma-anther separation) through filament elongation of stamens.
