Wikipedia Draft Outline - Bet-Hedging Jimshad, Miranda, Roxanne, Jamie
0. Summary of Bet-hedging I. Bet-hedging overview -Definition of Bet-hedging:
- Define bet-hedging both colloquially and scientifically
-Categories of Bet-hedging:
- Introduce the different categories of bet-hedging
-Theories behind Bet-hedging:
- History of theoretical development
- Explanation of the basic theory behind bet-hedging and how it arises in a population (similar to the current ‘The evolution of bet hedging’ section), mention it being tied in to unstable environments
- Mathematical justification behind bet-hedging
II. Examples of Bet-hedging in various taxa -Prokarya: Bet-hedging during bacterial diauxic shift, bacterial persistence, Rhizobia, P. falciparum, S. pneumoniae
- Eukaryotes
- Animalia:
- Invertebrates: Diaptomus sanguineus, Argulus coregoni, Bombus terrestris, Linyphia litigiosa (multiple paternity)
- Vertebrates: Periparus ater
- Plantae: Germination time across various species of desert annuals, Carlina vulgaris
- Fungi: S. cerevisiae ([GAR+], Tsl1), evolution of bet-hedging in Neurospora crassa
- Animalia:
