This transition from positive to negative regulation of the a-specific genes involved slight changes over evolutionary time in both the cis-acting elements in the promoters of the a-specific genes and the trans-acting regulatory proteins a2 and α2 (Tsong et al. 2006).
Our results are similar to those reported for another open-pollinated white spruce progeny trial in Québec, Canada [ 16].While heritability estimates were population-specific, slight differences in GBLUP-based heritability estimates for wood density (WDX-ray) and height (36- vs. 22-year-old height) were observed between the two studies (wood density: 0.18 vs. 0.24 and height: 0.20 vs. 0.16) [ 16].
Acupuncture applied to a specific acupoint may induce slight core hyperthermia with a decrease in skin temperature, a finding which suggests that acupuncture might be able to reverse the core-to-periphery redistribution of heat [ 13].
The approach, without a specific design, generates transcripts with slight variations in intergenic regions that change RNAase cleavage sites, ribosomal binding sites sequestering sequences and mRNA secondary structures.
An analysis of photogalvanic cells is carried out and applied to a specific system, iron-thionine, with only slight simplifications.
Three brands stand out with more than one vehicle making the list BMW, Subaru and Volvo each having a slight edge in a specific area.
Furthermore, addition of a specific Mmp13 inhibitor resulted in a slight reduction of Mmp13 activity in the WT and a significant reduction nearly to the WT level in the Tfap2e−/− explants.
However, the findings in this study were quite strong and remained significant even after adjustments, so even though there might be a slight overestimation of a specific OR, the direction would be the same with some changes in the level of estimations of, for example, capacity to work.
They gave the animals slight electrical shocks that triggered a specific pain response--a leg twitch.
