Sentence examples for timing traits from inspiring English sources

In fact, our findings of temperature-related divergence of developmental and ontogenetic timing traits are very much in agreement with findings in other salmonid systems with recent origin.

Rieseberg et al. [ 4] found differences in the fraction of antagonistic QTL across types of traits, and used these differences to infer relative strengths of selective pressure on morphological, life history, and timing traits.

Thus, understanding the factors that impact crop timing traits may facilitate the selection of petunia varieties with an increased rate of vegetative node formation (development rate) at either optimal or suboptimal growing temperatures, or varieties that initiate flowering following emergence of fewer leaf nodes.

This is described below, and details of the timing of trait collection are also presented in Table 1.

Furthermore, the high heritability of timing-related traits (median 0.51, Carlson and Seamons 2008) supports the plausibility of evolutionary adaptation due to strong selection resulting from changing conditions.

It also enables exploration of the genomic basis for female brachyptery (wing reduction), a feature of sexual dimorphism in winter moth, and for seasonal timing, a trait extensively studied in this species.

The timing of the traits' evolution human sacrifice came first suggests that cultures were more likely to become strictly divided along class lines if their religious traditions included the grisly rite.

Connectivity may also be influenced by life-history traits (timing and depth of egg or larval release, larval swimming ability, homing behavior, and pelagic duration) that interact to determine the extent to which oceanographic events and currents affect the scale of dispersal (Sponaugle et al. 2002; Galarza et al. 2009).

No studies have yet documented genetically based changes in smolt migration timing, but the trait appears to have a genetic basis (Stewart et al. 2006 and references therein).

Findings of Stewart et al. (2002) with results of other similar investigations (Jonsson et al. 1990; Hansen and Jonsson 1991) suggest that run timing, a behavioral trait, may have a considerable genetic component.

However, in a few studies Arabidopsis grown in natural environments has been used to study, for example, reproductive timing, fitness-related quantitative traits and flowering time [e g [ 3- 6]].
