  2. Overlapping generations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overlapping_generations

    Non-overlapping generations are found in species in which the adult generation dies after one breeding season. If a species for instance can only survive winter in the juvenile state the species will automatically consist of non-overlapping generations. The bee Amegilla dawsoni, an example of a species with non-overlapping generations

  3. Overlapping generations model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overlapping_generations_model

    The overlapping generations (OLG) model is one of the dominating frameworks of analysis in the study of macroeconomic dynamics and economic growth.In contrast to the Ramsey–Cass–Koopmans neoclassical growth model in which individuals are infinitely-lived, in the OLG model individuals live a finite length of time, long enough to overlap with at least one period of another agent's life.

  4. Eusociality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eusociality

    Overlapping generations; Cooperative care of young; Eusociality was then discovered in a group of chordates, the mole-rats. Further research distinguished another possibly important criterion for eusociality, "the point of no return". This is characterized by having individuals fixed into one behavioral group, usually before reproductive maturity.

  5. Overlapping gene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overlapping_gene

    The current definition of an overlapping gene varies significantly between eukaryotes, prokaryotes, and viruses. [2] In prokaryotes and viruses overlap must be between coding sequences but not mRNA transcripts, and is defined when these coding sequences share a nucleotide on either the same or opposite strands.

  6. Evolution of eusociality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolution_of_eusociality

    Overlapping generations means that multiple generations live together, and that older offspring may help the parents raise their siblings. Cooperative brood care is when individuals other than the parents assist in raising the offspring through means such as food gathering and protection.

  7. Effective population size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effective_population_size

    Suppose there are t non-overlapping generations, then effective population size is given by the harmonic mean of the population sizes: [19] = = For example, say the population size was N = 10, 100, 50, 80, 20, 500 for six generations (t = 6).

    This generation is known for being digital natives, even more so than Gen Z, having been born into a world that is fully integrated with technology, social media and global connection.

  9. k-mer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-mer

    Having smaller sizes will increase the chance for all the k-mers to overlap, and as such, have the required subsequences in order to construct the De Bruijn graph. [31] However, by having smaller sized k-mers, you also risk having many vertices in the graph leading into a single k-mer. Therefore, this will make the reconstruction of the genome ...
