Subgrade conditions significantly affect functionality of the road pavement during its service life.Among the different stabilization techniques for upgrading poorly performing in-situ soil subgrades, an economically attractive example involves the use of waste materials, such as lignin.A deep bibliographic analysis of previous studies is carried o
Life history traits determine the organismal abundance within a population and are affected by the presence of trade-offs that modify relationships between traits.These relationships can vary across different environments either by local adaptation or phenotypic plasticity.Reproductive traits have direct fitness implications and therefore are suita
