Sentence examples for values of the traits from inspiring English sources
For each period, genetic correlations were sought between the genetic values of the traits, computed as the sum of the residuals of the models' random parts with the predicted value of the dependent variable for a 1.6 mm female.
Notice that this method ignores the ancestral values of the traits (the most probable value for the ancestral species represented by a given internal node) and is thus not influenced by the absolute value of the traits, but only by the variation in those values among the species present in the tree.
The method of 'Adaptive Dynamics' has been developed to assess the equilibrium value (evolutionarily stable strategy) of continuous traits in populations evolving under natural selection that are homogeneous across individuals apart from the values of the traits under selection [51], [52].
The phenotypic values of the traits measured in the DH population were continuously distributed.
According to the eigenvector values of the traits on the first PC (Table 5), Amax,m, E, LMA and CTm had the highest scores.
For example, if fitness is maximal for intermediate values of the traits (see Wang 2006), one would predict fixation of a single optimal pathogen genotype rather than coexistence of multiple genotypes.
Then we permuted the values of the trait across the tips of the extended phylogeny, which means that trait values are exchanged among all species and individuals within those species for which intra-specific values were available.
If a QTL is cosegregating with molecular markers, the genetic effects of the QTL on a quantitative trait and its genomic position can be estimated from the marker genotypes and phenotypic values of the trait.
Results were compared with those obtained across 1,000 permutation tests where the 185 values of the trait were resampled.
Differential item functioning (DIF) exists when responses to an item differ systematically across groups of respondents, e.g., males vs. females, that have similar values of the trait being measured [ 36].
Yet, selection indices require prior knowledge about the economic value of the traits for proper scaling before optimum phenotypic weights can be estimated.
