The effect of genetic structure on molecular dating and tests for temporal signal [0.03%]
基因组组成对分子钟定年和时间信号检验的影响
Gemma G R Murray,Fang Wang,Ewan M Harrison et al.
Gemma G R Murray et al.
'Dated-tip' methods of molecular dating use DNA sequences sampled at different times, to estimate the age of their most recent common ancestor. Several tests of 'temporal signal' are available to determine whether data sets are suitable for...
Image calibration and analysis toolbox - a free software suite for objectively measuring reflectance, colour and pattern [0.03%]

Quantitative measurements of colour, pattern and morphology are vital to a growing range of disciplines. Digital cameras are readily available and already widely used for making these measurements, having numerous advantages over other tech...
HEXT, a software supporting tree-based screens for hybrid taxa in multilocus data sets, and an evaluation of the homoplasy excess test [0.03%]
用于多基因数据集中杂交类群的基于树的屏幕支持软件HEXT及同源性过剩检验的评价

The homoplasy excess test (HET) is a tree-based screen for hybrid taxa in multilocus nuclear phylogenies. Homoplasy between a hybrid taxon and the clades containing the parental taxa reduces bootstrap support in the tree. The HET is based o...

Beyond the Mean: Sensitivities of the Variance of Population Growth [0.03%]
平均值之外：人口增长 variance的敏感性分析

Meredith V Trotter
Populations in variable environments are described by both a mean growth rate and a variance of stochastic population growth. Increasing variance will increase the width of confidence bounds around estimates of population size, growth, prob...
Measuring acoustic habitats [0.03%]

1. Many organisms depend on sound for communication, predator/prey detection and navigation. The acoustic environment can therefore play an important role in ecosystem dynamics and evolution. A growing number of studies are documenting acou...

1. Establishing the genetic and molecular basis underlying adaptive traits is one of the major goals of evolutionary geneticists in order to understand the connection between genotype and phenotype and elucidate the mechanisms of evolutiona...
Power analysis for generalized linear mixed models in ecology and evolution [0.03%]
广义线性混合模型在生态和进化中的功效分析
Paul C D Johnson,Sarah J E Barry,Heather M Ferguson et al.
Paul C D Johnson et al.
'Will my study answer my research question?' is the most fundamental question a researcher can ask when designing a study, yet when phrased in statistical terms - 'What is the power of my study?' or 'How precise will my parameter estimate b...
Split diversity in constrained conservation prioritization using integer linear programming [0.03%]
基于整数线性规划的保护区优先级划分中的分裂多样性理论
Olga Chernomor,Bui Quang Minh,Félix Forest et al.
Olga Chernomor et al.
Phylogenetic diversity (PD) is a measure of biodiversity based on the evolutionary history of species. Here, we discuss several optimization problems related to the use of PD, and the more general measure split diversity (SD), in conservati...
Evaluation and management implications of uncertainty in a multispecies size-structured model of population and community responses to fishing [0.03%]
渔业对种群和群落影响的多物种尺寸模型中的不确定性评估及其管理意义
Robert B Thorpe,Will J F Le Quesne,Fay Luxford et al.
Robert B Thorpe et al.
Implementation of an ecosystem approach to fisheries requires advice on trade-offs among fished species and between fisheries yields and biodiversity or food web properties. However, the lack of explicit representation, analysis and conside...
