Interactions between soil properties, fungal communities, the soybean cyst nematode, and crop yield under continuous corn and soybean monoculture
TL;DR: The relative abundance of nematodes-trapping fungi and several putative nematode egg parasites was positively correlated with SCN density at several time points, suggesting that these fungi may proliferate as a result of the availability of the SCN as a nutrition source.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fatty acid signatures of stomach oil and adipose tissue of northern fulmars (Fulmarus glacialis) in Alaska: Implications for diet analysis of Procellariiform birds
TL;DR: The study illustrates the potential for elucidating short- versus longer-term diet information in Procellariiform birds using different lipid sources by comparing the FA composition of stomach oil and adipose tissue biopsies of individual northern fulmars breeding at three major colonies in Alaska.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inter- and Intrapopulation Effects of Sex and Age on Epicuticular Composition of Meadow Grasshopper, Chorthippus Parallelus
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed patterns of variation in cuticular lipids across and within five populations of the meadow grasshopper Chorthippus parallelus and revealed considerable differences between the sexes and between populations and differences in the pattern of sexual dimorphism between populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biogeochemical plant–soil interaction: Variable element composition in leaves of four plant species collected along a south–north transect at the southern tip of Norway
TL;DR: High linear correlations in the plants occur between the lanthanides (La, Ce, Y), and interestingly, between P and Ti, and the plant/soil system appears highly non-linear and self-regulated.
Journal ArticleDOI
The genetics of venom ontogeny in the eastern diamondback rattlesnake (Crotalus adamanteus)
TL;DR: Adult and juvenile venom-gland transcriptomes for a species with known ontogenetic venom variation were equally effective at individually providing a full characterization of the venom genes of a species but that any particular individual was likely to lack several toxins in their transcriptome.

Problems of relative growth
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.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.
