Population Regulation in an Ecosystem With regard to the population size of a species and what factors may affect them, two factors have been defined. They are the density-dependent factors and the density-independent factors. Find out the differences between the two in this tutorial. Know how ...

In subject area:Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology The classical definition of so-called ‘biological species’ states that “species are groups of interbreeding natural populations which are reproductively isolated from other such groups.” ...
49% less population density than East Asia and the Pacific. 88% less population density than South Asia.[154] * Per a 2012 paper in the journal Africa Development: At independence in the late 1950s and early 1960s, there were high hopes about the growth prospects of the new politically...
Additional work is thus necessary to provide logging recommendations, such as the definition of a maximum distance to be kept between seed trees to allow the qualitative and quantitative reproduction of the species. We suggest that investigations need to be conducted in low-density populations, which...
Interestingly, there does appear to be a drop in saber-tooth cat population density coinciding with the emergence of Clovis-point wielding peoples in the Americas suggesting that interspecific competition may have had an initial impact on saber-tooth cat populations; although, the sample size for ...
In addition to species’ ranges shifting poleward or up in elevation in response to climatic warming, the abundance or density of a species at a given location can change. For example in Antarcticterrestrial ecosystems, macroscopic plants (largely mosses) are colonizing previously bare or newly exp...
An exciting recent development is a coalescent-basedhidden Markov model(pairwise sequentially Markovian coalescent; PSMC[76]) that uses the local density of heterozygous sites in diploid data for inferring past demography. Thus, with deep coverage, genome sequence data from a single individual are su...
(Fig.S6). This is surprising, as potential connectivity values revealed by the model should be an upper limit for gene flow, as it assumes no post-settlement mortality or density-dependent death, both of which would tend to further reduce estimated colonisation rates. The discrepancy could be ...
plasma that transfers phospholipids from triglyceride-rich lipoproteins to high-density lipoprotein, and its activity is associated with atherogenesis in humans and mice17. Noncoding variations nearPLTPindependent of p.Val70Phe are associated with lipid levels (high-density lipoprotein and triglycerides)18...
