Trait data thus represent the raw material for a wide range of research from evolutionary biology, community and functional ecology to biogeography. Here we present the global database initiative named TRY, which has united a wide range of the plant trait research community worldwide and gained an unprecedented buy-in of trait data: so far 93 trait databases have been contributed. The data repository currently contains almost three million trait entries for 69 000 out of the world's 3 00 000 plant species, with a focus on 52 groups of traits characterising the vegetative and regeneration stages of the plant life cycle, including growth, dispersal, establishment and persistence. A first data analysis shows that most plant traits are approximately log-normally distributed, with widely differing ranges of variation across traits. Most trait variation is between species (interspecific), but significant intraspecific variation is also documented, up to 40% of the overall variation. Plant functional types (PFTs), as commonly used in vegetation models, capture a substantial fraction of the observed variation - but for several traits most variation occurs within PFTs, up to 75% of the overall variation. In the context of vegetation models these traits would better be represented by state variables rather than fixed parameter values. The improved availability of plant trait data in the unified global database is expected to support a paradigm shift from species to trait- based ecology, offer new opportunities for synthetic plant trait research and enable a more realistic and empirically grounded representation of terrestrial vegetation in Earth system models.Fri May 27 00:00:00 CEST 2011EUCconf/euc/2010281-288Preemption Control Using Frequency Scaling in Fixed Priority Scheduling.2010dblp Tue Mar 29 00:00:00 CEST 2011EUROSPEECHconf/interspeech/1995Speech recognition experiments in a noisy environment using auditory system modelling.1995dblp Mon Feb 21 00:00:00 CET 2011IUIconf/iui/201173-82Mobile drama in an instrumented museum: inducing group conversation via coordinated narratives.2011dblp Tue Nov 23 00:00:00 CET 2010CompSysTechconf/compsystech/200990A computer system for graphometric handwriting analysis.2009dblp Tue Nov 23 00:00:00 CET 2010CompSysTechconf/compsystech/200833ABC - alphabetical computer-based handwriting investigation system.2008dblp Wed Jan 27 00:00:00 CET 2010RTCSAconf/rtcsa/2009467-476A Cascading Redundancy Approach for Dependable Real-Time Systems.2009dblp Wed Jan 20 13:09:13 CET 2010Department of Physics and Center for Complex Network Research, University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, IN 46556, USA.Proc Natl Acad Sci U S ADecember5217940--17945The topological relationship between the large-scale attributes and local interaction patterns of complex networks.1012004complex networks patterns 28Thu Nov 26 00:00:00 CET 2009COMPSAC (2)conf/compsac/2009522-527'State of the Art' in Using Agile Methods for Embedded Systems Development.2009dblp Thu Nov 19 21:48:01 CET 2009NatureAug7102533-538Dissecting self-renewal in stem cells with RNA interference4422006imported We present an integrated approach to identify genetic mechanisms that control self-renewal in mouse embryonic stem cells. We use short hairpin RNA (shRNA) loss-of-function techniques to downregulate a set of gene products whose expression patterns suggest self-renewal regulatory functions. We focus on transcriptional regulators and identify seven genes for which shRNA-mediated depletion negatively affects self-renewal, including four genes with previously unrecognized roles in self-renewal. Perturbations of these gene products are combined with dynamic, global analyses of gene expression. Our studies suggest specific biological roles for these molecules and reveal the complexity of cell fate regulation in embryonic stem cells.Fri Aug 21 12:32:50 CEST 2009New York, NY [u.a.] Praeger special studies in international economics and developmentBulgarian economic development since World War II1973imported Thu May 28 00:00:00 CEST 2009PRDCconf/prdc/200856-63VTV - A Voting Strategy for Real-Time Systems.2008dblp Tue Apr 21 00:00:00 CEST 2009RTCSAconf/rtcsa/2008337-346Maximizing the Fault Tolerance Capability of Fixed Priority Schedules.2008dblp Wed Dec 17 00:00:00 CET 2008IEEE Real Time Technology and Applications Symposiumconf/rtas/2006113-124FSF: A Real-Time Scheduling Architecture Framework.2006dblp Tue Aug 05 00:00:00 CEST 2008COMPSACconf/compsac/20081309-1314Error Modeling in Dependable Component-Based Systems.2008dblp Sat May 03 12:28:20 CEST 2008International Economic ReviewAugdoi: 10.1111/1468-2354.t01-1-000403895--918Dumping And Double Crossing: The (In)Effectiveness Of Cost-Based Trade Policy Under Incomplete Information*432002imported 213
