What's the difference between diecious and dioecious?
Diecious
Definition:
(a.) See Dioecian, and Dioecious.
Example Sentences:
(1) Parthenogenic whiptail lizards that alternately simulate the male and female mating behavior of related diecious species provide an animal model that demonstrates the existence of both male and female sexual schemas in the same brain.
Dioecious
Definition:
(a.) Having the sexes in two separate individuals; -- applied to plants in which the female flowers occur on one individual and the male flowers on another of the same species, and to animals in which the ovum is produced by one individual and the sperm cell by another; -- opposed to monoecious.
Example Sentences:
(1) The results apply to a dioecious population if the migration pattern and mutation rate are sex independent.
(2) The population is assumed to be infinite dioecious with nonoverlapping discrete generations and random mating.
(3) It is argued that the genome of R. acetosa is undergoing rapid reorganisation on this small island which may be associated with an enforced shift towards inbreeding in this dioecious species.
(4) The above results apply to autosomal loci in monoecious (with or without selfing) and dioecious populations and to X-linked loci.
(5) Seven centric shifts and three reciprocal interchanges, all newly-arisen in natural populations, have been tested for their inheritance in the dioecious flowering plant Rumex acetosa.
(6) Staurotypus does not confirm to the general model of sex chromosome evolution for diploid dioecious organisms.
(7) Thus the cost of sex in gynodioecious populations is (with a low level of selfing) as high as in a dioecious population.
(8) The technique has been successful in both dioecious and monoecious families with short chromosomes.
(9) Fluke LSU rRNA has significant sequence homology to mosquito mitochondria LSU rRNA and is more closely related to the mitochondrial rRNA of hermaphroditic than dioecious trematodes.
(10) Weak selection at a single mutiallelic locus in a dioecious population is analysed under the assumptions of panmixia and discrete non-overlapping generations.
(11) is fertilized by small biflagellate spermatozoids and both monoecious and dioecious species are found.
(12) This situation contrasts with the one described for another heterosporous haploid dioecious pteridophyte, Marsilea vestita, where nucleocytoplasmic interaction has been interpreted as the de novo creation of plastids and mitochondria following the elimination by autophagy of the organelles inherited at meiosis.
(13) Discrete, nonoverlapping generations are posited for autosomal and X-linked loci in dioecious populations, but monoecious populations are studied in both discrete and continuous time.
(14) The mean fitness is the product of the mean fertility and the mean viability; in dioecious populations, the latter is the unweighted geometric mean of the mean viabilities of the two sexes.
(15) Properties of identity relation between genes are discussed, and a derivation of recurrent equations of identity coefficients in a random mating, diploid dioecious population is presented.
(16) Chromosome analyses of 227 mature plants of the dioecious species Rumex acetosa collected on the small island of Skomer have revealed an extremely high level of unique and polymorphic variation.
(17) Study of the reproductive anatomy in 65 strobilae of the dioecious cestode Shipleya inermis Fuhrmann, 1908 (Acoleata: Dioecocestidae) showed that a common genital duct, probably arising through fusion of the vas deferens and the proximal portion of the vaginal duct, compensated functionally for the loss of a patent vagina.
(18) Using adequate definitions of mean fitnesses in general contexts of frequency-dependent selection in dioecious populations, we show that two phenotypes, when they can coexist in the population, tend to balance their fitnesses as far as is allowed by the genetic system as more alleles responsible for phenotype determination are introduced into the population.
(19) The plant is dioecious with very reduced male and female flowers.
