Predictions of sex ratio alteration as a function of environmental change are tested in laboratory experiments with two parasitic wasps.

ISSN: 1432-1939Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: BiologyNotes: Summary Kin-selection, as evidenced by aggression between individuals with a low coefficient of relation, may be a significant contributing factor in vole population cycles. Demographic and behavioral studies support this idea.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1432-1939Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: BiologyNotes: Summary Evidence is presented that individuals of a large number of dioecious and subdioecious plant species are able to alter their sexual state in response to changes in the ambient environment and/or changes in size or age. We suggest that lability of sexual expression probably has survival value where a significant portion of the females must otherwise bear the cost of fruit production in unfavorable environments. We demonstrate that in patchy environments of the proper scale and variability in quality, labile sexual expression will enhance an individual's genetic contribution to the next generation.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Average adult life span (1/M) and age at maturity (α) show −0.25 scalings, independent of population size; these two lead to ther max scaling, providedR o is invariant with body size in rarified populations (=R om ). Thus ther max scaling follows from the existence of two population size symmetries (i.e. 1/M and α) and one body size symmetry (R o ). The theory provides a formula to calculate the height (A 3) of the scalingr max =A 3 ·W −0.25. The theory also helps to explain ‘Fowler's Rules’, which linkR om to the relative position of the inflection point of the population growth curve.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -
