Traits: Pattern-seeking, independent, knowledgeable, skeptical Book: Reading Borges's "Labyrinths" will help anyone of this type make use of their logical minds, as the writer -- who worked for decades as a librarian -- employed complex patterns, both syntactically and literally within his plots.
Recent work has illuminated some of the structural properties of Yule trees, but it remains mostly unknown how these properties affect sequence and trait patterns observed at the tips of the phylogenetic tree.
While recent work suggests [15], [16] that genus-level attributes can contribute to success in naturalization and subsequent abundance, knowledge of trait patterns is lacking at this level, where biological specificity remains considerable and the scope for regulatory generalization is maximal.
On the other hand, given the complexity of the identified multi-SNP-multi-trait patterns, it remains a challenge to convert this information into biologically meaningful interpretation.
Our study represents the first systematic assessment of behavioural and ecological trait patterns across the Hylobatidae using recent approaches in comparative analysis.

However, the interaction between abiotic filters (such as growing season length and variability) and biotic filters will ultimately determine whether short-term temporal shifts in species composition will eventually manifest as significant changes to observational trait patterns and ecosystem functioning in the long term.
Phylogenetic clustering is evidence of habitat filtering when functional traits are conserved [38], however phylogenetic structure alone is not sufficient to make inferences both on ecological process and trait pattern [39].
Such a grey and white-matter heterochronous maturation make these structures more fragile during brain development and could account for the expression of a medial parieto-frontal trait-pattern in patients vulnerable to schizophrenia, independently of the potential future emergence of acute psychotic episodes.
Here, we evaluate the existence of such a trait pattern in liana leaves using published multispecies comparative studies as well as our own database compiled from 436 published single- and multispecies reports and five unpublished data sets (see Supplementary Data Bibliography).
