Cahill, J. F., Lamb, E. G., Dale, M. R. T.
An individual's competitive ability is often dependent on its size, but the methods commonly used to analyze plant competition experiments generally assume that the outcome of interactions are size independent. A method for the analysis of experiments with paired competition treatments based on...

We construct a continuum model for biological aggregations in which individuals experience long-range social attraction and short range dispersal. For the case of one spatial dimension, we study the steady states analytically and numerically. There exist strongly nonlinear states with compact...

A partitioned likelihood analysis of swallowtail butterfly phylogeny (Lepidoptera:Papilionidae)
Download2001
Caterino, M.S., Sperling, F.A., Kuo, M.M., Reed, R.D.
Although it is widely agreed that data from multiple sources are necessary to confidently resolve phylogenetic relationships, procedures for accommodating and incorporating heterogeneity in such data remain underdeveloped.We explored the use of partitioned, model-based analyses of heterogeneous...

Profile likelihood confidence intervals are a robust alternative toWald’s method if the asymptotic properties of the maximum likelihood estimator are not met. However, the constrained optimization problem defining profile likelihood confidence intervals can be difficult to solve in these...

A specialized ABC efflux transporter GcABC-G1 confers monoterpene resistance to Grosmannia clavigera, a bark beetle-associated fungal pathogen of pine trees
Download2013-01-01
Bohlmann, Jörg, Wang, Ye, Breuil, Colette, DiGuistini, Scott, Lim, Lynette, Robertson, Gordon
Grosmannia clavigera is a bark beetle-vectored pine pathogen in the mountain pine beetle epidemic in western North America. Grosmannia clavigera colonizes pines despite the trees' massive oleoresin terpenoid defences. We are using a functional genomics approach to identify G. clavigera's...
