Linda owns an orchard of orange trees, and she is worried because she notices that many of her orange trees are unhealthy. They

appear to have very little resistance to attack by a certain fungus that is destroying their leaves. She consults with some biologist friends, and they tell her that her orchard is threatened by low genetic diversity. How could she improve the ability of her orchard to resist disease in the future?

Answer:

If there is low genetic diversity, she needs to introduce something into the system to increase the variation. I would suggest breeding the orange trees with other new orange trees to change the allele frequencies, which is called gene flow.

Likely the fungi are attacking them somewhere that they have decreased resistance, and if more alleles were introduced, there would probably be evolution towards a genotype that promotes defense against these fungi.

LH levels are highest on day number?
erik [133]

f your LH levels are high, it could mean a number of things. High levels of LH are normal if you are in menopause. If you are younger than 40, high LH levels could suggest premature menopause, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), or a genetic or congenital condition that affects the production of hormones. High levels at times outside of the LH surge can interfere with ovulation and menstruation, contributing to infertility.

If your LH levels are low, you will usually not be having your period. Because LH triggers ovulation, low levels of LH can prevent ovulation and thus pregnancy. Low levels of LH are common in women with eating disorders, female athlete triad, high levels of stress and disorders of the pituitary or hypothalamus. LH testing is usually done in conjunction with other hormone tests such as FSH, testosterone, estradiol and progesterone. The results of these other tests will help determine next steps.
