Sentence examples for reproduction population from inspiring English sources

Island species respond to this ecological release by losing adaptations that were necessary on the mainland, and evolve new ones by adaption to their new island home, which can result in a cascade of changes in behaviour, reproduction, population dynamics and anatomy.

For many amphibian species, particularly those that rely on ephemeral ponds for reproduction, population persistence can be dependent on landscape hydrology with years of suboptimal rainfall resulting in reproductive failure.

A general expectation is that a decreasing cover of semi-natural habitats negatively affects pollinator reproduction, population size and pollination services, but few studies have investigated the simultaneous effects of landscape complexity on different aspects of pollinator communities and functioning.

Particularly, rainfall and relative humidity affected the rates of biological development, feeding, reproduction, population density, and survival of Aedes mosquitoes, thus increasing the DF transmission.

The fitness components lag, rate (population doubling time) and efficiency of reproduction (population density change) were extracted from high density growth curves and normalized to those of the S. cerevisiae reference strain, providing >360 precise measures of organism-environment interactions.

Captive breeding programs intensively manage reproduction, population size, and demographics in an effort to control inbreeding and genetic drift (Foose and Ballou 1988; Lacy 2009; Ballou et al. 2010).

We know little about how atrazine-induced changes in vertebrate growth, somatic development, behavior, immunity, gonadal development, or physiology affect reproduction, populations, gene frequencies, or communities.

Plants with peak ratios below 1·8 are considered as sexual and those with peak ratios above this arbitrary threshold (1·80 1·85) as having an uncertain mode of reproduction (populations 9826 and 9846; Table  2).

In reproduction, new population is generated based on fitness values of current population.

On average, the study showed the seasonal timing of reproduction and population growth shifted forward by eleven days over the period, and that the change has accelerated recently.

Thus, the continuous reproduction of population should be replaced with a birth pulse.
