For the LFDP taxa, the frequencies of recovery were almost identical (Table 1) to the results for BCI with trnH-psbA, rbcLa, and matK recovering 92.3%, 90.2%, and 70.4% of the species, respectively.
Other indices for social complexity seem to be rather primate-centric and not applicable to a lot of other taxa, for example frequency of tool use and tactical deception (Reader & Laland 2002; Byrne & Corp 2004) or grooming clique size (Kudo & Dunbar 2001).
In model 3, the frequency of taxa visiting apple flowers was significantly lower in intensively cultivated and managed areas (26 taxa, 59 observations) than in less intensively cultivated and managed areas (83 taxa, 247 observations) (Fig. 3 and Table 3), after controlling for the order to which each taxon belonged.
We assessed changes in crust taxa by comparing cover, frequency of occurrence, and indicator species between years.
Again Chi-Square tests were used to test for association between the frequency of taxa drawn by children and their relative biomass and total number of described species.
We used all plots available in the Scandes and focused on taxa that had a frequency of ≥5% in the data set to run the procedure detailed by Diekmann [45], thus replacing the original indicator value with the re-calculated optimum value.
Our approach exploits variation in the frequency of taxa among samples to simultaneously infer each lineage haplotype, the phylogenetic tree connecting them, and their frequency within each sample.
We obtained some insight into the degree to which host taxa vary in the frequency of their interaction with inherited bacteria.
27 A longitudinal study found no differences in the bacterial taxa, relative abundance and frequency of community state types between women who delivered at term and those who had spontaneous preterm delivery.
A simulation analysis was used to show that the observed relative frequency of taxa within pats does not differ from that expected by chance if colonisation is a random binomial event in which each species colonises a pat independently of all other species.
