ORIGINS OF SUBMOVEMENTS IN MOVEMENTS OF ELDERLY ADULTS

Origins of submovements in movements of elderly adults

Abstract Background Slowness is a well-recognized feature of movements in aging.One of the possible reasons for slowness suggested by previous research is production of corrective submovements that compensate for shortened primary submovement to the target.Here, we re-examine this traditional interpretation and argue that the majority of submovemen

Physiological integration ameliorates negative effects of drought stress in the clonal herb Fragaria orientalis.

Clonal growth allows plants to spread horizontally and to establish ramets in sites of contrasting resource status.If ramets remain physiologically integrated, clones in heterogeneous environments can act as cooperative systems--effects of stress on one ramet can be ameliorated by another connected ramet inhabiting benign conditions.But little is k
