Sentence examples for stage of breeding from inspiring English sources

A total of 28,725 images were collected from the three black-browed albatrosses, which covered most (92 99%) of the three foraging trips (duration = 1.9, 3.2 and 4.4 days); foraging trip durations at this stage of breeding for uninstrumented birds range between 0.5 days and 5.5 days [15].

Therefore, further studies would be desirable to assess the energy budget of the sexes throughout the whole initial stage of breeding.

The strong environmental effects on some genotypes suggest that the seedling evaluation stage of breeding programs should be located in the regions for planned production.

It is clear that genomic technologies will speed the development of new cultivars of a range of fruit crops, affecting the process of selecting genetically elite progeny, both for development as potential new commercial cultivars and for use as parents in the next stage of breeding.

While males travelled at a greater average speed during incubation in 2011 (14.2±3.5 km h−1) compared to 2012 6.9±1.00 km h−1) and 2013 7.0±0.66 km h−1; F1,21=3.5, P<0.05), average speed did not increase in any other stage of breeding in years of lower apparent food availability.

The fourth bird could not be recaptured as the bird entered the post-guard chick-rearing stage of breeding during the 3 4 day deployment; during this stage albatrosses visit the nest only briefly (normally for less than 10 min).

These results suggest that also the skin of the females may get brighter at later stages of breeding.

Indeed, birds that initiate molt during their final stages of breeding (in either naturally or experimentally induced late breeding pairs) often experience considerable fitness costs as parents [8 11, but see 12], as do their offspring [13] [15].

It is therefore not that surprising that we did not find a difference, since, for example, in American kestrels the intensity of the skin coloration changes through different stages of breeding cycle, being most intense at the time of pairing and then abruptly decreasing already by the onset of incubation [3].

The effect of selection on maize diversity has been estimated by sequencing 278 temperate maize inbred lines from different stages of breeding history.

Here we report a large-scale analysis of genome-wide indel polymorphisms among maize populations, including inbred lines from different stages of breeding history and landraces.
