Proximate Costs of Male-Exclusive Parental Care in the Giant Water Bug, Abedus ovatus (Hemiptera: Belostomatidae) [0.03%]
粗鞘猛水蚤(Abedus ovatus)雄性独养行为的代价研究

César Aparicio-Moreno et al.
AbstractIn addition to costs mediated by trade-offs in resource allocation, it has also been proposed that reproductive costs may occur because of direct somatic damage. Oxidative stress occurs when reactive oxygen species production overwh...
The Effects of Diet Quantity on Developmental Plasticity of Size and Flight Energetics in the Hawk Moth Manduca sexta [0.03%]
食物数量对六斑大天蛾大小及飞行代谢的可塑性的影响
Eric J Ellison,Ecaterina Facina,Charles-A Darveau
Eric J Ellison
AbstractThe energy needed for insect flight varies with the size and body proportions of different species or individuals. Wingbeat frequency during flight usually decreases as size increases, though these changes depend on the proportions ...
Behavioral Energetics and the Architecture of Performance: A Perspective on the Influence of Taigen and Wells (1985) and Taigen et al. (1985) [0.03%]
行为能耗与表现结构:塔吉恩和威尔斯(1985)及塔吉恩等(1985)的影响视角
Carlos A Navas,Catherine R Bevier
Carlos A Navas
AbstractIn 1985, two seminal publications redefined the study of acoustic communication in frogs. By demonstrating that male frogs expend energy at rates surpassing those of vigorous locomotion when calling (Taigen and Wells 1985) and that ...
Oxygen Isotopes Indicate That Rocky Mountain Mule Deer (Odocoileus hemionus hemionus) Can Be Seasonally Nonobligate Drinkers [0.03%]
氧同位素表明落基山脉的骡鹿是季节性非必需饮水者
Zachary T Steele,Karen Caceres,Austin D Jameson et al.
Zachary T Steele et al.
AbstractUnderstanding seasonal water budgets of wildlife is critical, as climate change alters water availability. Rocky Mountain mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus hemionus) mainly obtain water from their diet and drinking water; however, wint...
Muscle Fiber Diameter and Myonuclear Domain in Sheepshead Minnows in Response to Chronic Thermal Acclimation Treatments and Acute CTmax Trial: Possible Relevance for Global Temperature Increases [0.03%]
慢性热习服处理及急性CTmax试验对凤尾鱼肌纤维直径和肌核域的影响:可能与全球气温升高有关
Jack Bennink,Evan Nash-Braun,Ana Gabriela Jiménez
Jack Bennink
AbstractGiven the predicted increase in average global temperatures and extreme thermal events over the next several decades, establishing a baseline physiological forecast on species' ability to respond to such events is of vital importanc...
Whole-Genome Analyses Point to New Candidate Genes Underlying Estivation in Amphibians [0.03%]
全基因组分析揭示了新的两栖动物夏蛰候选基因

AbstractWhen amphibians invaded the terrestrial realm, a strategy such as estivation may have helped them survive water and oxygen stress in the novel environment. In fact, estivation appears to be an ancestral state in amphibians. We condu...
Telomere Length Decreases with Age and Reflects Early-Life Environment but Not Adult Condition in a Long-Lived Migratory Bird [0.03%]
端粒长度随着年龄的增长而缩短,并且反映了早期生活条件而非成年期状况:以一种长寿的候鸟为例
Ilona Pélagie Grentzmann,Gilles Gauthier,Frédéric Angelier et al.
Ilona Pélagie Grentzmann et al.
AbstractWithin species and populations, individuals often differ in their coping styles and more generally in their life history strategies. This heterogeneity in individual life history is classically reflected by variation in physiologica...
Who's Coming Home? Shorter Early-Life Telomeres Predict Return to the Natal Colony in an Arctic Seabird [0.03%]
早期生活期的端粒长度预测北极海鸟返回出生地栖息
Jingqi Corey Liu,Olivier Chastel,Christophe Barbraud et al.
Jingqi Corey Liu et al.
AbstractIn wild animals, the length of their telomeres, the noncoding DNA sequences protecting the ends of chromosomes, in early life has been shown to predict their performance (e.g., survival, reproduction) later in life. However, literat...
Differences in Salinity Performance Curves between Two Closely Related Poecilia Species: Implications for Species Turnover along a Salinity Gradient [0.03%]
两种密切相关Poecilia物种的盐度性能曲线差异:沿盐度梯度物种更替的意义
Craig A Marshall,Kyndall R Zeller,Emily A Kane et al.
Craig A Marshall et al.
AbstractMany locomotor traits exhibit predictable variation along environmental gradients, which in turn influence the lower-level cellular and physiological processes that determine whole-organism performance (i.e., performance curves). Wh...

AbstractPrevious small rodent studies report a negative correlation between exploration and locomotor performance. In other words, individuals that are more exploratory during a novel environment test run more slowly on a racetrack during a...
