Divergent genes for translation inition factor elF-4A are coordinately expressed in tobacco
Download1991
Kuhlemeir, Cris, Holfmann, Sylvia, Owtrim, George W.
Three cDNA clones coding for eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4A, elF-4A, were isolated from a Nicotiana plumbaginifolia root cDNA library by heterologous screening. The clones comprise two distinct gene classes as two clones are highly similar while the third is divergent. The genes...

Ontogenetic patterns in heritable variation for body size: using random regression models in a wild ungulate population
Download2005
Wilson, A.J., Coltman, D.W., Kruuk, L.E.B.
Body size is an important determinant of fitness in many organisms. While size will typically change over the lifetime of an individual, heritable components of phenotypic variance may also show ontogenetic variation. We estimated genetic (additive and maternal) and environmental covariance...
