Silver spoon effects on plumage quality in a passerine bird
A silver spoon effect means that individuals who develop under favourable circumstances enjoy a fitness or performance advantage later in life. While there is large empirical support for silver spoon effects acting on different life-history traits in birds, such as survival and reproduction, the evidence for the carry-over effects of rearing conditions on the quality of future plumage generatio...
متن کاملSpawned with a Silver Spoon? Entrepreneurial Performance and Innovation in the Medical Device Industry
Entrepreneurs in high-technology industries often have prior experience at incumbent firms, but we know little about how knowledge obtained at the prior employer impacts entrepreneurial performance. Drawing on previous work from strategy, economics, and organizational sociology, I assess the impact of industry experience on entrepreneurial performance and innovation in medical device start-ups....
متن کاملSwallowed table “Spoon”!
We followed this method of rescue as described by Gupta et al.,[2] however, with a slight modification. Instead of a nasogastric tube, we preferred to use the suction catheter. Moreover, ventilation in our patient was uninterrupted due to the use of flexible cathmount [Figure 1a]. The flexibility of suction catheter becomes an advantage when it comes to the process of withdrawing the oral end f...
متن کاملA silver spoon for a golden future: long-term effects of natal origin on fitness prospects of oystercatchers (Haematopus ostralegus).
1. Long-term effects of conditions during early development on fitness are important for life history evolution and population ecology. Using multistrata mark-recapture models on 20 years of data, we quantified the relation between rearing conditions and lifetime fitness in a long-lived shorebird, the oystercatcher (Haematopus ostralegus). We addressed specifically the relative contribution of ...
متن کاملEvolution of spoon-shaped networks
We consider a regular embedded network composed by two curves, one of them closed, in a convex and smooth domain Ω. The two curves meet only at one point, forming angles of 120 degrees. The non-closed curve has a fixed end point on ∂Ω. We study the evolution by curvature of this network. We show that the maximal time of existence is finite and depends only on the area enclosed in the initial lo...
