The impact of socioeconomic and phenotypic traits on self-perception of ethnicity in Latin America
(Nature, 2021-06)
Self-perception of ethnicity is a complex social trait shaped by both, biological and non-biological factors. We developed a comprehensive analysis of ethnic self-perception (ESP) on a large sample of Latin American mestizos ...
Distribution, stability and fate of phenolic compounds in white and purple eggplants (Solanum melongena L.)
(Elsevier Science, 2014-06)
Eggplants rank among the vegetables richest in antioxidants, but little is known about the allocation, stability, and turnover of these metabolites. The distribution, accumulation and degradation of phenolic antioxidants ...
A robust conditional maximum likelihood estimator for generalized linear models with a dispersion parameter
(Springer, 2019-03-12)
Highly robust and efficient estimators for generalized linear models with a dispersion parameter are proposed. The estimators are based on three steps. In the first step, the maximum rank correlation estimator is used to ...
The role of an invader in its native range: could differential grazing by apple snails structure the submersed macrophytes assemblages in Southern Pampas (Argentina)?
(Springer, 2019-02)
Apple snails are renowned for their strong impacts on aquatic vegetation and ecosystem function in invaded regions but the existing knowledge on their role in aquatic ecosystems and communities in their native range is ...
Semiparametric animal models via penalized splines as alternatives to models with contemporary groups
(American Society of Animal Science, 2005-11-01)
Contemporary groups (CG) are used in genetic evaluation to account for systematic environmental effects of management, nutritional level, or any other differentially expressed group effect; however, because the functional ...
Multi-scale fidelity measure for image fusion quality assessment
(Elsevier Science, 2019-10)
Image fusion is considered an effective enhancing methodology widely included in high-quality imaging systems. Nevertheless, like other enhancing techniques, output quality assessment is made within small sample subjective ...
Multitrait differential response in a diverse potato panel under contrasting water regimes
(Crop Science Society of America, 2020-05)
Water stress is the most significant environmental stress in agriculture worldwide. Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is a drought-susceptible crop. Water stress tolerance is a complex trait of increasing importance in potato. ...
Opportunities drive the global distribution of protected areas
(PeerJ Inc, 2017-02-15)
Background. Protected areas, regarded today as a cornerstone of nature conservation, result from an array of multiple motivations and opportunities. We explored at global and regional levels the current distribution of ...
Analysis of early vigour in twenty modern cultivars of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
(Csiro Publishing, 2012-12)
Fast development of seedling leaf area is a relevant trait in order to increase early resource acquisition. The use of semi-dwarf genotypes of wheat has decreased early vigour of modern cultivars. We studied early vigour ...
Analytical framework and data for a municipal solid waste environmental performance assessment
(Elsevier, 2020-02)
This article contains (i) a set of spreadsheets with data compiled from municipal sanitation or solid waste plans, and (ii) data of the individual and aggregate performance indicators. These indicators have been published ...
