Effects of rearing and housing environment on behaviour and performance of pigs with different coping characteristics
The availability of a rooting substrate may profoundly affect behaviour and welfare of pigs. Apart from their actual housing environment, also the conditions present in early life and individual characteristics may influence the behaviour of pigs. The present study investigated the relative importance of the housing environment during rearing and the actual housing environment on behaviour duri...
متن کاملGeometric Morphometrics
The field of morphometrics is developing quickly and recent advances allow for geometric techniques to be applied easily to many zoological problems. This article briefly introduces geometric morphometric techniques and then reviews selected areas where those techniques have been applied to questions of general interest. This article is relevant to non-specialists looking for an entry into geom...
متن کاملqfd planning with cost consideration in fuzzy environment
در عصر حاضر که رقابت بین سازمان ها بسیار گسترش یافته است، مطالعه و طرحریزی سیستم های تولیدی و خدماتی به منظور بهینه سازی عملکرد آنها اجتناب ناپذیر می باشد. بخش عمده ای از رقابت پذیری سازمان ها نتیجه رضایتمندی مشتریان آنها است. میزان موفقیت سازمان های امروزی به تلاش آنها در جهت شناسایی خواسته ها و نیازهای مشتریان و ارضای این نیازها بستگی دارد. از طرفی کوتاه کردن زمان ارائه محصول/خدمات به مشتریان...
15 صفحه اولThe promise of geometric morphometrics.
Nontraditional or geometric morphometric methods have found wide application in the biological sciences, especially in anthropology, a field with a strong history of measurement of biological form. Controversy has arisen over which method is the "best" for quantifying the morphological difference between forms and for making proper statistical statements about the detected differences. This pap...
متن کاملGeometric morphometrics and phylogeny
This paper reviews some of the important properties of geometric morphometric shape variables and discusses the advantages and limitations of the use of such data in studies of phylogeny. A method for fitting morphometric data to a phylogeny (i.e., estimating ancestral states of the shape variables) is presented using the squared-change parsimony criterion for estimation. These results are then...
