The genome of Nectria haematococca: contribution of supernumerary chromosomes to gene expansion

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the most extensively studied member of this complex, Nectria haematococca mating population VI (MPVI), and revealed that several genes controlling the ability of individual isolates of this species to colonize specific habitats are located on supernumerary chromosomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Univariate statistical analysis of environmental (compositional) data: Problems and possibilities

TL;DR: It can be demonstrated that data closure must be overcome prior to calculating even simple statistical measures like mean or standard deviation or plotting graphs of the data distribution, e.g. a histogram.

Funders' positive affective reactions to entrepreneurs' crowdfunding pitches: The influence of perceived product creativity and entrepreneurial passion

TL;DR: In this article, the authors draw upon affective events theory, research regarding funders' perceptions, and research regarding expectation alignment between products and their presenters to develop and test an indirect effects model of crowdfunding resource allocation decisions.

Hippocampal volume in patients with alcohol dependence

TL;DR: In chronic alcoholism, the Reduction of hippocampal volume is proportional to the reduction of the brain volume, and alcohol consumption should be accounted for in studies of hippocampusal damage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonstationary Multivariate Process Modeling through Spatially Varying Coregionalization

TL;DR: In this paper, a spatially varying linear model of coregionalization (SVLMC) is proposed for the analysis of multivariate spatial data, which is a generalization of the LMC.

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.

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.
