Looking for a Similar Partner: Host Plants Shape Mating Preferences of Herbivorous Insects by Altering Their Contact Pheromones

TL;DR: It is suggested that plant-induced phenotypic divergence in mate recognition cues may act as an early barrier to gene flow between herbivorous insect populations on alternative host species, preceding genetic divergence and thus, promoting ecological speciation.

Chemical Variability in Clays and Pottery from a Traditional Cooking Pot Production Village: Testing Assumptions in Pereruela*

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored analytically the contemporary pottery-making community of Pereruela (north-west Spain) that produces cooking pots from a mixture of red clay and kaolin.

Space Use and Habitat Selection by Bobcats in the Fragmented Landscape of South-Central Iowa

TL;DR: In this article, the authors determined space use and habitat selection of bobcats by radiocollaring 68 bobcats in south-central Iowa during 2003-2006, and used a fixed kernel estimator to calculate 95% utilization distributions (UDs) for home ranges and 50% UDs for cores.

Discordant longitudinal clines in flowering time and phytochrome C in Arabidopsis thaliana.

TL;DR: The results provide previously missing empirical support for the importance of PHYC in mediating photoperiod sensitivity in natural populations of A. thaliana and suggest that other loci and epistatic interactions likely play a role in the determination of flowering time and that the environmental factors influencingPhotoperiod in plants vary longitudinally as well as latitudinally.

Hydrogeochemistry and strontium isotopes in the Arno River Basin (Tuscany, Italy): Constraints on natural controls by statistical modeling

TL;DR: In this paper, the chemistry of major and trace elements and strontium isotopic ratios measured in running waters from the Arno River Basin (Tuscany, central-northern Italy) and thermal springs discharging in the same hydrographic system are presented and discussed.

Problems of relative growth

Julian Huxley
TL;DR: This detailed study of the different rates of growth of parts of the body relative to the body as a whole represents Sir Julian Huxley's great contribution to analytical morphology, and it is still a basis for modern investigations in morphometrics and evolutionary biology.

Experiments with Mixtures: Designs, Models and the Analysis of Mixture Data

TL;DR: In this paper, the original Mixture Problem is described and models for exploring the Entire Simplex Factor Space are presented, including matrix algebra, least squares, and the analysis of variance.

New statistical methods for allometry with application to

TL;DR: In this paper, Mosimann et al. presented new statistical methods for the study of size and shape, and used these methods to study the morphology of red-winged blackbirds, Agelaius phoeniceus breeding in Florida.

Analysis of dispersion on a sphere

TL;DR: In this article, a series of approximate tests of significance is given for hypotheses about the precision constant K and the polar vector on a sphere, where 8' is the angle between the polar and observation vectors.
