Intra-specific copy number variation of MHC class II genes in the Siamese fighting fish
Duplicates of genes for major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules can be subjected to selection independently and vary markedly in their...
-
Sex-specific morphs: the genetics and evolution of intra-sexual variation
Sex-specific morphs exhibit discrete phenotypes, often including many disparate traits, that are observed in only one sex. These morphs have evolved...

Ocean warming and acidification adjust inter- and intra-specific variability in the functional trait expression of polar invertebrates
Climate change is known to affect the distribution and composition of species, but concomitant alterations to functionally important aspects of...

Intra-specific variation in sensitivity of Bombus terrestris and Osmia bicornis to three pesticides
There is growing evidence that pesticides may be among the causes of worldwide bee declines, which has resulted in repeated calls for their increased...

Inter- and intra-specific dietary overlap in predacious bi-phasic salamanders
When multiple species with similar trophic niches co-occur in an ecosystem, foraging, refuge, and breeding microhabitats are predicted to be...

The role of leaf superoxide dismutase and proline on intra-specific photosynthesis recovery of Schima superba following drought
Understanding the physiological and biochemical responses of tree seedlings under extreme drought stress, along with recovery during rewatering, and...

Inter-laboratory comparison of plant volatile analyses in the light of intra-specific chemodiversity
IntroductionAssessing intraspecific variation in plant volatile organic compounds (VOCs) involves pitfalls that may bias biological interpretation,...

Assessing coordinated intra-specific variation in root/shoot traits in two herbaceous species based on architecture and ontogeny
The ecological relevance of early ontogenetic trends in root/shoot covariation in herbaceous plants is barely known. In the present study, this issue...

Intra-specific variation in lichen secondary compounds across environmental gradients on Signy Island, maritime Antarctic
Lichens produce various carbon-based secondary compounds (CBSCs) in response to abiotic conditions and herbivory. Although lichen CBSCs have received...

Inter- and intra-specific phenotypic variation of ecological stoichiometric traits in a mixed-oak secondary forest in China
Ecological stoichiometry provides a framework for the balance and flow of elements between organisms and ecosystems. Elemental phenotypes have an...

Inter and intra-specific variability in arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi affects hosts and soil health
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) show wide inter- and intra-specific variability in symbiotic functioning. Despite evidence for significant...

Intra-specific patterns of δ13C, growth and wood density variation at sites of contrasting precipitation with implications for modelling carbon sequestration of tropical tree species
Tropical agroforestry practices play a crucial role in mitigating global climate change by absorbing CO 2 from the atmosphere through photosynthesis...

Geographic intra-specific variation in social organization is driven by population density
AbstractSocial flexibility enables individuals to switch between group and solitary living and is suggested to be an adaptation to varying...

Geographical variation in functional traits of leaves of Caryopteris mongholica and the role of climate
BackgroundQuantifying intra-specific variation in leaf functional traits along environmental gradients is important for understanding species'...

Topography-mediated light environment regulates intra-specific seasonal and diurnal patterns of photosynthetic plasticity and plant ecophysiological adaptation strategies
Due to substantial topographic variations in the Himalaya, incident solar radiation in the forest canopy is highly unequal. This results in...

Leaf phenotypic variation and its response to environmental factors in natural populations of Eucommia ulmoides
BackgroundEucommia ulmoides leaves have high medicinal and economic value as a dual-purpose substance for medicine and food. Employing leaves from...

Introducing Language Variation
The current volume brings together various aspects of language variation in South Asia, viewed from different theoretical lenses. -
Investigating Inter- and Intra-specific Karyotypic Diversity of Some Species of Salvia Genus in Iran
The Salvia genus, an important member of the Lamiaceae family, is extensively utilized in the food and pharmaceutical industries. To investigate the...

Hopf Bifurcation and Stochastic Stability of a Prey-Predator Model Including Prey Refuge and Intra-specific Competition Between Predators
This study looked at the dynamics of a prey–predator mechanism with a Holling type II feature response that integrated prey refuge and the predator...
