Does schooling reduce fast-start response latencies in teleosts?
(Elsevier, 1980)
1. 1. Response latencies, denned as the time between a d.c. electric shock and initiation of a fast-start (startle response) were measured for eight species of teleosts.2. 2. Fast-start response latencies varied from 10 ...
Thermal adjustments in cardiac and skeletal muscles of lizards
(Springer-Verlag, 1969-03)
1. Isometric twitch tension development was measured over a wide range of temperatures in skeletal and cardiac (ventricular) muscles from diverse Australian lizards representing several families and including both diurnal ...

Choosing category size in a stage projection matrix
(Springer-Verlag, 1978-01)
A basic problem associated with choosing category size in a stage projection matrix is described. “Errors of estimation” are large if the category size is chosen too small and “errors of distribution” are large if the ...
Macronuclear persistence of sequences normally eliminated during development in Tetrahymena thermophila
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1985)
During conjugation in the ciliated protozoan, Tetrahymena thermophila , a somatic MAC-ronucleus develops from the germinal MICronucleus. Ten to 20 percent of the MIC genome is eliminated during this process. Three repetitive ...

Response of Solidago canadensis clones to competition
(Springer-Verlag, 1988-11)
Transplants of ten Solidago canadensis clones were grown under high and low competition in the field to determine whether clones differed in survival, growth, and reproduction under natural conditions. Transplants had ...
Rates of evolution on the time scale of the evolutionary process
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 2001-11)
A generational time scale, involving change from one generation to the next, is the time scale of evolution by natural selection. Microevolutionary and macroevolutionary patterns reflect this process on longer time scales. ...
