The latitudinal distribution patterns of alpha, beta and gamma diversity of reptiles, amphibians and herpetofauna were analyzed using individual binary models of potential distribution for 301 species predicted by ecological modelling for a grid of 9,932 quadrants of ~25 km2 each. We arranged ...
Species diversity may be additively partitioned within and among samples (alpha and beta diversity) from hierarchically scaled studies to assess the proportion of the total diversity (gamma) found in different habitats, landscapes, or regions. We developed a statistical approach for testing null hypoth...
”Jack Sepkoski’s “Alpha, Beta, or Gamma: WhereDoes All the Diversity Go?” represents justsuch a paper. Sepkoski’s illustrious career is bestknown for his comprehensive summaries of di-versity patterns over the Phanerozoic (i.e., thelast 520 million years). Particular important andwell- ...
If some of these genes are novel α-keratins as the phylogeny and genomic alignment data indicate, then the current α-keratin nomenclature, based on mammalian genes, does not adequately account for the diversity found in birds. Therefore, we suggest that the KRT42 genes be annotated as KRT...
Global patterns of regional (gamma) plant diversity are relatively well known, but whether these patterns hold for local communities, and the dependence on spatial grain, remain controversial. Using data on 170,272 georeferenced local plant assemblages,
Example Sentences Oral microbiomes of women with high anxiety or depression symptoms showed a high alpha diversity, which means they included many types of microbe species present at relatively even levels. FromScience Daily He describes her as the “alpha” character of the family who always gets...
The influence of deteriorating global climate through the Neogene appears to be offset by a steepening latitudinal diversity gradient and an associated increased late Neogene provinciality.HENDY, Austin J.WPaleontology III Geographic Diversity Patterns...
Five genera from theFirstpapillomavirinaecontain the human papillomaviruses:Alpha-,Beta-,Gamma-,Mu-, andNupapillomavirus. Within each genus, viral genomes are further separated into species that share between 71% and 89% nucleotide identity within the L1 gene. For example, within theAlphapapillomavi...
The subunit proteins of neurofilaments demonstrate a considerable degree of evolutionary diversity, especially in contrast to tubulin and actin, which are highly conserved. Mammalian neurofilaments are composed of the triplet with molecular weights 200,000, 150,000, and 68,000, whereas those of the...
