Age, growth and life-history parameters of an endemic vulnerable lizard from Patagonia, Argentina
(British Herpetol Society, 2015-10)
For ectotherms, like lizards, the temperature plays a key role in shaping life history traits such as age and size at sexual maturity, longevity and growth rates. In cold temperate habitats, like Patagonia, lizards must ...
Insights into life history theory: a brood size manipulation on a southern hemisphere species, Tachycineta leucorrhoa, reveals a fast pace of life
(Wiley, 2014-05)
Life history traits exhibit substantial geographical variation associated with the pace of life. Species with a slow pace are expected to invest more in their future/residual reproductive value and are more common at ...
Life history, morphological variability and growth rates of the life phases of Gracilaria tenuistipitata (Rhodophyta: Gracilariales) in vitro
(INST CIENCIAS MAR BARCELONA, 2010)
Gracilaria tenuistipitata, a species of commercial interest, is becoming a model organism for studies on red algal physiology and molecular biology as it can be grown easily in vitro under a broad range of conditions. Most ...
History, life, and justice in friedrich nietzsches vom nutzen und nachtheil der historie fur das leben
(MICHIGAN STATE UNIV PRESS, 2010)
The interplay between thermal tolerance and life history is associated with the biogeography of Drosophila species
(2010)
Background: Physiological tolerances are important determinants of the biogeography of species. Questions: What is the relationship between thermal tolerance and the biogeographic origin of species? What are the relationships ...
Is xenodontine snake reproduction shaped by ancestry, more than by ecology?
(Wiley, 2017-01)
One of the current challenges of evolutionary ecology is to understand the effects of phylogenetic history (PH) and/or ecological factors (EF) on the life-history traits of the species. Here, the effects of environment and ...
Corticosterone and pace of life in two life-history ecotypes of the garter snake thamnophis elegans
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2012-02)
Glucocorticoids are main candidates for mediating life-history trade-offs by regulating the balance between current reproduction and survival. It has been proposed that slow-living organisms should show higher stress-induced ...
Partial semelparity in the neotropical didelphid marsupial Gracilinanus microtarsus
(Alliance Communications Group Division Allen PressLawrenceEUA, 2006)
