This study illustrates that the differential virulence of rice-pathogenic P. arrhenomanes, P. graminicola and P. inflatum isolates is related to their root colonization capacity, the intensity of induced root responses and their ability to utilize amino acids in their colonization niche.
Since evenness of a system varies inversely with the Gini coefficient, this result again indicates that AKS2 cells in biofilm have a higher degree of evenness with respect to their ability to utilize different C-sources than their planktonic counterpart.
Tshulu Trust aims to enhance responsible well being and achieve sustainable livelihoods by improving the ability of community members to utilize their natural and cultural resources in an optimal and sustainable manner.

Thus, employees with a high level of encouragement of participation are more likely to utilize their ability to network to achieve career success (e.g., high income) than in a low-participation environment.
However, they vary in their ability to utilize different carbon sources and thus show some form of adaptation to their environment.
The success of nanoparticle-based therapy relies heavily on their ability to utilize the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect and active targeting moieties to their advantage.
The observed wide distribution of Nag utilization pathway in Shewanella could be related to their ability to utilize chitin, a highly abundant constituent of aquatic invertebral exoskeleton.
In vitro competition between the various fadD mutants and their complements were first tested to determine if the defect reduced their ability to utilize various sole carbon sources.
The women reported strong self-efficacy for their ability to use condoms with clients but slightly less confidence in their ability to utilize reproductive health services.
