A comprehensive study conducted on mosquitofish using this paradigm revealed that the numerical abilities of fish closely resemble those previously reported for primates [11].
Specifically our lack of ability to closely monitor viral load and liver biochemistry rendered us unable to assess the impact of adverse interactions.
Phillips et al 102 cited the similar assumptions and lack of ability to "closely reflect clinical practice" in the study.
In the present work, we tested the ability of two closely related laboratory S. cerevisiae strains (S288C and BY4741) to ferment ISA-SGM under conditions similar to those found in wineries.
In a separate experiment, we tested the ability of another closely related NLR gene, Nlrc4, to protect the host from Mtb. Nlrc4−/− mice had a similar survival profile to paired wild type controls, with a mean survival of 190 days compared to 198 days for wild type controls (Figure 3C).
We had a relatively low Person Separation Reliability index (0.34 for the group analyzing a tree and 0.44 for the group building a tree) implying that we had too few questions and too many students of high ability to closely parse out student ability (Bond and Fox 2007; see Additional file 1: Figure S1 and Additional file 1: Figure S2).
Another advantage of the SB system is its ability to closely recapitulate the process of tumorigenesis as it occurs in humans.
The overarching goal for most of these biomaterials is its ability to closely mimic native extracellular matrix of tissues.
Here we test the ability of two closely-related Saccharomyces sensu stricto species to select their own species as mates and avoid hybridisation.
The ability of both closely-related and divergent homologues to complement the E. coli Δ cydX mutant supports our identification techniques, and suggests that CydX homologues retain similar function among divergent species.
