Leaf physiological aspects of nitrogen-use efficiency in Brassica campestris L.: quantitative genetic variation across nutrient treatments.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared three nutrient treatments in the greenhouse for Brassica camprestris L. and found that aboveground biomass and leaf nitrogen-use efficiency were positively correlated in the sub-optimal treatment, suggesting that growth differences were due to the efficiency with which nitrogen was utilized in physiological processes.

Animal models with group-specific additive genetic variances: extending genetic group models.

TL;DR: Simulations and an example from an insular meta-population of house sparrows in Norway with three distinct genetic groups illustrate that the proposed method is successful in estimating group-specific additive genetic variances, and that segregation variances are indeed negligible in the empirical example.
Journal ArticleDOI
Digit reduction: Via repatterning or developmental arrest?
TL;DR: Hamrick (2002) contested the conclusion of the recent article on evolutionary constraints on digit numbers that in tetrapodslimb reduction usually occurs via arrest of the initial develop-ment followed by degeneration (Galis et al 2001), and agreed with Hamrick that the article was illustrated with the wrong figure.

Sewall Wright's place in twentieth-century biology.
TL;DR: Failing eyesight diminished his productivity in the last years of his life, but not his deep interest in evolutionary problems and in his shifting balance theory.
