Sentence examples for a soft sweep from inspiring English sources

In sequencing their subjects' genomes, the researchers found that a soft sweep was indeed responsible for the earlier hatching.

All it needs to do is increase the abundance of some of the genes affecting the trait in question, a process known as a "soft sweep".

The alternative, called a soft sweep, is that many genes influence a trait, in this case the rate of maturation, and that the growth-accelerating versions of each of these genes become just a little more common.

A challenge in the use of H2/H1 is that its range depends on the associated value of H12, so that equal H2/H1 values might provide different levels of support for a soft sweep model at different values of H12.

The inspiration behind his collection of impeccably tailored dresses was angelic with an edge, so I decided to keep one part strong and the other soft; a powerful brown smoky eye on the lid was balanced by a soft sweep of iridescent white below the lower lash.

Another possibility is the action of a soft sweep (i.e. selection on standing variation), shortening EHH, creating spurious values in neutrality tests, and in general confounding the signature of selection [34], [35].

Hardening occurs when only one beneficial lineage in an initially soft sweep persists through a population bottleneck.

Is it the squawk of seagulls or the soft sweep of a wave across a sandy beach?

As a result, soft sweeps leave more subtle signatures in population genomic data than hard sweeps and are thus more difficult to detect.

This standing variation results in a soft selective sweep in response to a change in selection pressure, which can be observed by deep sampling of a lineage.

This pattern of diversity is characteristic of the effects of a soft selective sweep (Hermisson and Pennings 2005; Pennings and Hermisson 2006a, b), the phenomenon by which several alleles with similar effect on function are selected in parallel.
