Leaf Morphological Plasticity of Tree Species from Two Developmental Stages in Araucaria Forest
(Instituto de Tecnologia do Paraná - Tecpar, 2014-07-01)
This study compared the morphological and anatomical variations of the leaves of four shade-tolerant tree species Allophylus edulis (St.-Hil.) Radlk (Sapindaceae), Casearia sylvestris Sw. (Salicaceae), Cupania vernalis ...
Morphological and genetic diversity of Pura Raza Español horse with regard to the coat colour
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-01)
Gene mutations influencing melanocytes also impact on physiological and behavioural functions. In this study, we investigated their association with four different coat colours in the Pura Raza Español (PRE) horse using ...
Genetic evolution of milk yield, udder morphology and behavior in Gir dairy cattle

Disentangling the ecological basis of floral trait variation in Neotropical Piper species
(2021-04-01)
In generalist pollination systems, it has been assumed that pollinators play a minor role in the diversification of floral traits, but recent studies have pointed to a different scenario. Although pollination in Piper is ...
Variation of morphological and chemical traits of perennial grasses in arid ecosystems. Are these patterns influenced by the relative abundance of shrubs?
(Gauthier-Villars/Editions Elsevier, 2012-05)
We asked whether morphological and chemical traits of perennial grasses in semiarid-arid ecosystems are influenced by the abundance of coexisting shrubs, in northern-central Patagonia, Chubut Province, Argentina. We selected ...
Variation in biomass allocation and root functional parameters in response to fire history in Brazilian savannas
(2021-01-01)
Fire is a fundamental ecological factor in savannas because it affects vegetation dynamics and ecosystem functioning. However, the effects of fire on below-ground compartments, including biomass and root traits, and their ...
Contribution of population-level phenotypic plasticity to the invasiveness of Zaprionus indianus (Diptera: Drosophilidae)
(Czech Academy of Sciences, 2020-03)
Zaprionus indianus is a species of fly native to the Afrotropical biogeographic region, which around twenty years ago invaded the American continent. Several studies have shown that local adaptation and phenotypic plasticity ...
Heterosis and reciprocal effects for physiological and morphological traits of popcorn plants under different water conditions
(Agricultural Water Management, 2022)
Functional responses to anthropogenic disturbance and the importance of selected traits: A study case using dung beetles
(2021-06-17)
Evaluate the functional diversity of dung beetles associated with the Atlantic Forest replacement using a matrix with 25 functional traits (10 morphological, four ethological and 11 physiological). Compare functional ...
Quantitative genetics in the monk parakeet (Myiopsitta monachus) from central Argentina: Estimation of heritability and maternal effects on external morphological traits
(Public Library of Science, 2018-08)
The monk parakeet (Myiopsitta monachus) is a South American species unique among parrots; it builds communal stick nests that allow independence from tree or cliff cavities required by most parrots. As a very successful ...
