Modeling of spatial variations of growth within apical domes by means of the growth tensor. II. Growth specified on dome surface

Variations of the elemental relative rate of growth are modeled for parabolic, elliptic and hyperbolic domes of shoot apices by using the growth tensor in a suitable curvilinear coordinate system when the mode of area growth on the dome surface is known.Variations of growth rates within the domes are obtained in forms Conditioner of computer-made m

Applying genomics to metapopulation management in North American insurance populations of southern sable antelope (Hippotragus niger niger) and addra gazelle (Nanger dama ruficollis)

Insurance populations can provide a short-term safeguard for at-risk species.The goal for all insurance populations should be to maintain a high welfare, genetically diverse, self-sustaining population that is available for eventual reintroduction of animals back into the wild when it is safe to do so.However, many insurance populations in zoos are
