Such a large size would have been advantageous in competition with the other large predators of the Western Beringia mammoth steppe32.
Delivering these regions separately (in a mixture of 16 individual vectors) rather than concatenating them into a single construct, could be advantageous for preventing competition between epitopes and yield a broader response [30], [31], [32].
If such cooperation among sperm is advantageous in sperm competition, and if the apical hook determines the formation of sperm groups, we might expect a positive association between both hook shape and curvature and the risk of sperm competition across murine species.
As lantibiotic production would be very advantageous for microbial competition in the intestine, but of no value to a microbe in pure culture, it provides the selective pressure for the loss of this unique region 12 from strain NCC2705.
The proposed two-stage approach suggests that a judicious mixture of collaboration and competition is advantageous in dynamic C-RAN environments.
In this passage, Darwin clearly demonstrates his awareness that a) moral behaviors are locally disadvantageous or at best deliver no advantage, compared to less moral individuals within the same group, and b) moral behaviors expressed within groups can be decisively advantageous in between-group competition.
Accurately assessing other's ability to inflict costs (i.e. physical size and muscularity) can be an advantageous way to face competition by discerning whether to avoid or to engage in conflict [18], [45], [57].
Surprisingly, mated males in our study population did not differ significantly from non-mated males in body size, mass or IBC, traits that should be advantageous during direct male male competition (Arak 1983).
The higher the percentage of competition, the more advantageous the keyword is on the web.
Mill argues that more people existing alongside one another on an equal footing means increased competition, with an advantageous effect on human moral and intellectual development, both individual and social.
Long-distance dispersal, which reduces intraspecific competition, is sometimes advantageous even where aggregation of suitable habitat would otherwise favor short-distance dispersal, although certain habitat distributions can lead to either strategy being dominant.
