Larval cannibalism, time constraints, and adult fitness in caddisflies that inhabit temporary wetlands
(Springer-Verlag, 2004-01)
The fitness of non-feeding adult insects depends on energy accumulated during the larval stage. Larvae of the caddisfly Asynarchus nigriculus primarily feed on plant detritus, but supplement their diet with animal material ...
Molecular basis of pituitary dysfunction in mouse and human
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag New York Inc., 2001-07)
Circadian rhythms and mood: Opportunities for multi‐level analyses in genomics and neuroscience
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2014-03)
Genetic modifiers affecting severity of epilepsy caused by mutation of sodium channel Scn2a
(Springer-Verlag; Springer Science+Business Media, Inc., 2005-09)
Mutations in the voltage-gated sodium channels SCN1A and SCN2A are responsible for several types of human epilepsy. Variable expressivity among family members is a common feature of these inherited epilepsies, suggesting ...
Testing population genetic structure using parametric bootstrapping and M IGRATE-N
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer, 2005-05)
We present a method for investigating genetic population structure using sequence data. Our hypothesis states that the parameters most responsible for the formation of genetic structure among different populations are the ...
Stochastic models for cell motion and taxis
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 2004-01)
Certain biological experiments investigating cell motion result in time lapse video microscopy data which may be modeled using stochastic differential equations. These models suggest statistics for quantifying experimental ...
Minimally disturbed, multicycle, and reproducible synchrony using a eukaryotic “baby machine”
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2002-06)
A eukaryotic “baby machine” has been developed that produces synchronized cultures that display up to four synchronous cell cycles. 1 That such cells can be produced implies that methods unable to produce successive ...
Predicting community outcomes from pairwise interactions: integrating density- and trait-mediated effects
(Springer-Verlag, 2002-05)
Understanding how species interactions shape the structure of ecological communities based on pairwise comparisons has been a difficult undertaking for ecologists because effects in reassembled communities can be different ...
Microhabitat associations and seedling bank dynamics in a neotropical forest
(Springer-Verlag, 2004-12)
We conducted a rigorous test of tropical tree seedling microhabitat differentiation by examining microhabitat associations, survival and growth of established seedlings of ten tropical tree species representing a four-factor ...
Phosphatidylinositol 3,5‐bisphosphate: Low abundance, high significance
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2014-01)
