Dominance and identity of the dominant bee drive bee diversity on flowers
Communities are characterized by the dominance of a few species, which are crucial for sha** communities. Bees compete for scarce resources, and...
-
Dominance is common in mammals and is associated with trans-acting gene expression and alternative splicing
BackgroundDominance and other non-additive genetic effects arise from the interaction between alleles, and historically these phenomena play a major...
-
Leaf litter dominance components respond to temporal variation in a tropical riparian zone
Temporal scale and biodiversity components define how temporal variation influences biodiversity. For Brazilian Savannah riparian zones, litter input...
-
Genetic correlations of direct and indirect genetic components of social dominance with fitness and morphology traits in cattle
BackgroundWithin the same species, individuals show marked variation in their social dominance. Studies on a handful of populations have indicated...
-
Human and animal dominance hierarchies show a pyramidal structure guiding adult and infant social inferences
This study investigates the structure of social hierarchies. We hypothesized that if social dominance relations serve to regulate conflicts over...

Periodic flooding and edaphic factors shape Erythrina fusca dominance in riparian forests in the Pantanal wetland
Monodominant woody species are frequent in the Pantanal. Monodominant forests of Erythrina fusca (Fabaceae) occur in Northern Pantanal, but little is...

Megaherbivores provide biotic resistance against alien plant dominance
While human-driven biological invasions are rapidly spreading, finding scalable and effective control methods poses an unresolved challenge. Here, we...
-
Rams’ reproductive status during a controlled breeding period: effect of social dominance
The aim of this study was to compare the variation in body weight, scrotal circumference (SC), and seminal quality during a breeding period in...
-
Both morphological and behavioral traits predict interspecific social dominance in birds
Interspecific dominance interactions have consequences for behavior, ecology, and the stability of species coexistence. Determinants of the outcomes...
-
A mixed-effects stochastic model reveals clonal dominance in gene therapy safety studies
BackgroundMathematical models of haematopoiesis can provide insights on abnormal cell expansions (clonal dominance), and in turn can guide safety...
-
Subgenome dominance shapes novel gene evolution in the decaploid pitcher plant Nepenthes gracilis
Subgenome dominance after whole-genome duplication generates distinction in gene number and expression at the level of chromosome sets, but it...

How invaded are Hawaiian forests? Non-native understory tree dominance signals potential canopy replacement
ContextNon-native species invasions are altering the composition, structure, function, and dynamics of forests globally. The Hawaiian Islands are a...
-
Dominance structure and constancy of spiders in the Indian Thar desert
BackgroundThe knowledge about the species of a habitat (both resident and transient/dominant and rare) is a vital step to plan the conservation...
-
Soil microbial community response to ectomycorrhizal dominance in diverse neotropical montane forests
Ectomycorrhizal (EM) associations can promote the dominance of tree species in otherwise diverse tropical forests. These EM associations between...
-
Exploring the complex spectrum of dominance and recessiveness in genetic cardiomyopathies
Discrete categorization of Mendelian disease genes into dominant and recessive models often oversimplifies their underlying genetic architecture....

Exploratory Assessment of Interunit Dominance Relationships in a Rwenzori colobus (Colobus angolensis ruwenzorii) Multilevel Society: The Importance of Social Network Position
Multilevel social organizations necessitate close spatial proximity of social units, making dominance hierarchies between core units potentially...
-
Legume Tree Dominance in Central Amazonian Floodplain Forests
Studying the patterns of dominance and species composition of legumes can contribute to more precise models for nutrient cycling, especially the...
-
Convergence of dominance and neglect in flying insect diversity
Most of arthropod biodiversity is unknown to science. Consequently, it has been unclear whether insect communities around the world are dominated by...
-
Many faces of dominance: the manifestation of cohabiting companion dogs’ rank in competitive and non-competitive scenarios
There are indications that companion dogs of multi-dog households form a hierarchy, maintained by formal and agonistic dominance. Although it was...

Interrelationship among spatial cohesion, aggression rate, counter-aggression and female dominance in three lemur species
AbstractHow social and ecological factors are associated with variation in dominance style across species of animals has been studied frequently, but...
