We compared radiation-use efficiency of growth (epsilon;), defined as rate of biomass accumulation per unit of absorbed photosynthetically active radiation, of forest plots exposed to ambient (approximately 360 micro l l-1) or elevated (approximately 560 micro l l-1) atmospheric CO2 concentration ([CO2]). Large plots (30-m diameter) in a loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) plantation, which containe...
Predictions of forest succession, diversity and function require an understanding of how species differ in their growth, allocation patterns and susceptibility to mortality. These processes in turn are affected by allometric constraints and the physiological state of the tree, both of which are coupled to the tree's labile carbon status. Ultimately, insight into the hidden labile pools and the ...
The surface area-to-volume ratio of cells is one of the key factors affecting fundamental biological processes and, thus, fitness of unicellular organisms. One of the general models for allometric increase in surface-to-volume scaling involves fractal-like elaboration of cellular surfaces. However, specific data illustrating this pattern in natural populations of the unicellular organisms have ...
The length-weight relationships, condition factor and morphometrics of 10 species of the genus Alburnoides are provided from Iranian inland water. The a values ranged from 0.0037 (Alburnoides damghani) to 0.0128 (Alburnoides namaki), the b values ranged from 2.87 (A. namaki) to 3.50 (A. damghani) and the coefficient of variation (r2) ranged from 0.90 (Alburnoides samii) to 0.99 (A. namaki). Of ...
in this study, the distribution, abundance and some growth parameters of spirlin, alburnoideseichwaldii in the tilabad stream in the golestan province was studied over 2009-2010. a totalof 535 samples of spirlins were collected by catching with electroshocker. a total number of205 samples was analyzed and the rest of the specimens were released. spirlin was found onlyin stations 1 and 2 (the he...
IOLOGISTS have long directed attention to problems relating to the B determination of quantitative measures of body conformation and the genetic factors responsible for variation in conformation. Such variation in conformation hetween individual aninials within a species is due to differences in the relative proportions of the various parts to each other and to the animal as a whole. D’ARCY p t...
A total of 68 barrows, divided into 4 groups regarding the MHS genotype and feeding regime (intensive and restrictive). Data on muscle and fat growth were obtained by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Allometric growth analysis showed that muscle tissue grew proportionally with the increase of live weight; fat grew faster in relation to live weight in all investigated groups of pigs. Significan...
Hypothesis: Allometric scaling of mortality versus adult body size across species is predicted by evolutionary life-history theory to be present (and precise) only if all the species in the data set share the same value for the ‘height’ parameter in their body-size growth curves. Results: This basic prediction is tested and supported in a large fish data set, with the various species spanning t...
Historically, allometric equations relate organismal traits, such as metabolic rate, individual growth rate, and lifespan, to body mass. Similarly, Boltzmann or Q(10) factors are used to relate many organismal traits to body temperature. Allometric equations and Boltzmann factors are being applied increasingly to higher levels of biological organization in an attempt to describe aggregate prope...
Although most physiological traits scale allometrically in unitary organisms, it has been hypothesized that modularity allows for isometric scaling in colonial modular taxa. Isometry would allow increases in size without functional constraints, and is thought to be of central importance to the success of a modular design. Yet, despite its potential importance, scaling in these organisms has rec...
