Goller, Franz | Inspiratory muscle activity during singing in zebra finches and cowbirds | Singing is produced by an intricate coordination of vocal (syringeal) and respiratory muscles. Expiratory muscle activity is associated with the production of notes and syllables, which are separated by silent intervals, negative air sac pressure, and inspiratory air flow. In order to study the mus... | Minibreath; Expiration; Inspiration | 1997 |

Farmer, Colleen G.; Carrier, David R. | Integration of ventilation and locomotion in archosaurs | Movements of the pelvis have recently been found to contribute to ventilation in both crocodilians and birds. Alligators have a kinetic pelvis in which the ischiopubic and ischiotruncus muscles rotate the pubic bones ventrally to increase abdominal volume and thereby facilitate inspiration. In birds... | Archosaurs; Theropods; Integration; Ventilation; Pelvic aspiration; Cuirassal breathing | 2000 |

Ehleringer, James R. | Interspecific competition and resource pulse utilization in a cold desert community | In desert ecosystems a large proportion of water and nitrogen is supplied in rain-induced pulses. It has been suggested that competitive interactions among desert plants would be most intense during these pulse periods of high resource availability. We tested this hypothesis with three cold desert s... | Atriplex confertifolia; Chrysothamnus nauseosus; Colorado Plateau; desert; Gutierrezia sarothrae; Neighbor removal; Plant competition; Resource pulses; Pulse utilization; Stable isotopes; Water uptake | 2002 |

Seger, Jon | Intraspecific resource competition as a cause of sympatric speciation | [In most models of speciation], the fitness value of an animal is determined by the genotype it has, and the habitat in which it lives. In a more realistic model it should also depend on how much necessary resource is available for the animal and the competition from other genotypes for this resourc... | Phenotype; Models; Species | 1985 |

Mansour, Suzanne L.; Thomas, Kirk R.; Capecchi, Mario R. | Introduction of a lacZ reporter gene into the mouse int-2 locus by homologous recombination. | We demonstrate that the frequency of gene targeting is unaffected by the length of nonhomologous DNA transferred to a target chromosomal sequence. A result of this finding is that a much wider spectrum of designed genomic alterations is now feasible. As a first application, we inserted a 5.4-kilobas... | Blotting, Southern; Cell Differentiation; Fluorescent Antibody Technique; Restriction Mapping | 1990-10 |

Thomas, Kirk R.; Capecchi, Mario R. | Introduction of homologous DNA sequences into mammalian cells induces mutations in the cognate gene. | Injection of homologous DNA sequences into nuclei of cultured mammalian cells induces mutations in the cognate chromosomal gene. It appears that these mutations result from incorrect repair of a heteroduplex formed between the introduced and the chromosomal sequence. This phenomenon is termed 'heter... | Animals; Cell Line; Drug Resistance, Microbial; Fibroblasts; Mice; Models, Genetic; Neomycin; Plasmids | 1986-11-06 |

Adler, Frederick R. | Is space necessary? Interference competition and limits to biodiversity | A single trade-off between competitive ability and mortality has been shown to support an arbitrarily large number of species in models of interference competition in spatially structured populations. We show that this results not from spatial structure, but instead from the assumption that a small ... | Mortality rate; Competitive ability; Seed size | 2000 |
