Sentence examples for a decrease in variation from inspiring English sources

Guidelines and their incorporation in a DSS are part of a general trend towards rationalization of medicine in the Western world and one of the general implications of rationalization processes is a decrease in variation.

The results showed here are in accordance with previous comparisons using allozyme variability [ 19, 28], microsatellites [ 10, 29] and mitochondrial DNA [ 30], where a decrease in variation was observed in Australian populations, probably due to a bottleneck followed by a population expansion after the initial founder event.

The increase of genetic variation in Bythotrephes body length was associated with a decrease in maternal variation that together resulted in increased heritability, despite a concomitant increase in environmental variation.

Although it is less clear how phenotypic variation will respond to the same processes, population genetics theory suggests that a decrease in phenotypic variation should also be evident [ 50], especially in the case of morphological traits [ 51].

As the number of individuals increases, we can observe an increase in the predictability and a decrease in the variation of predictions for each trait (Fig. 4).
