Minimum viable population size of capercaillie Tetrao urogallus: results from a stochastic model
© WILDLIFE BIOLOGY · 6:4 (2000) Even if the mean rate of population growth is positive, populations are in danger of becoming extinct if they are too small to buffer environmental and demographic fluctuations. But how small is 'too small'? Answering this question is important to guide management decisions in fragmented landscapes. Therefore, a major task of conservation biology is to determine ...
متن کاملSetting population targets for mammals using body mass as a predictor of population persistence.
Conservation planning and biodiversity assessments need quantitative targets to optimize planning options and assess the adequacy of current species protection. However, targets aiming at persistence require population-specific data, which limit their use in favor of fixed and nonspecific targets, likely leading to unequal distribution of conservation efforts among species. We devised a method ...
متن کاملFormulation of Biocides Increases Antimicrobial Potency and Mitigates the Enrichment of Nonsusceptible Bacteria in Multispecies Biofilms.
The current investigation aimed to generate data to inform the development of risk assessments of biocide usage. Stabilized domestic drain biofilm microcosms were exposed daily over 6 months to increasing concentrations (0.01% to 1%) of the biocide benzalkonium chloride (BAC) in a simple aqueous solution (BAC-s) or in a complex formulation (BAC-f) representative of a domestic cleaning agent. Bi...
متن کاملAssessment of Morphological and Tropane Alkaloids Diversity among some Henbane (Hyoscyamus niger L.) Populations
Background: Black henbane with the scientific name of Hyoscyamus niger which has a wide geographic distribution, is considered as one the most important species for tropane alkaloids extraction. Objective: In this research, morphological and tropane alkaloids variations were assessed within different population of H. niger in their natural habitats. Methods: Totally, 56 individuals were colle...
متن کاملDevelopment and Experimental Validation of a Model for Oral Multispecies Biofilm Recovery after Chlorhexidine Treatment IMI PREPRINT SERIES
Short title: Biofilm resistance to chlorhexidine ¤ These authors contributed equally to this work. Abstract We combined experiments and mathematical modeling to study the recovery of oral multispecies biofilms following antimicrobial treatment, and further utilized mathematical modelling to explore the dynamics of the tolerance mechanisms of biofilms. Specifically, we investigated the proportio...
