We argue that this accumulation was selectively advantageous upon its occurrence in an ancestral yeast, and has been subsequently retained across the lineage.
Such crossings were advantageous due to the occurrence of some distinct heterosis.
In some cases, the functionality could also be improved, but the occurrence of advantageous mutations is obviously rare.
On the other hand, continuous coevolution may become difficult because it is usually assumed that small population size results in a reduced likelihood of the occurrence of advantageous novel mutations [ 6].
Existing theories explain why operons are advantageous in prokaryotes, but their occurrence in metazoans is an enigma.
For instance, [ 30] observed the occurrence of 66 new advantageous mutations in an experiment of E. coli culture over 1000 generations.
Patients receiving 1 mg/kg QD enoxaparin achieved near steady-state anti-Xa levels from day 1 of administration, and this could be advantageous in a population where the occurrence of VTE can have grave consequences.
Although L-HMMs are advantageous in terms of robustness to under-training occurrences compared to H-HMMs, this attribute is accompanied by reduced efficiency in modeling long-term temporal relationships in the data.
Ephemeral non-natives and invasive alien species, particularly Asteraceae and Poaceae, seem to have advantageous dispersal strategies or low habitat dependency facilitating their occurrence in curbside cracks, regardless of adjacent land uses and the urban rural landscape gradient.
In this work, we used a versatile technique [15] for the synthesis of maghemite nanoparticle, which was quite advantageous in the sense of not forming large aggregates, occurrence of uncontrolled oxidation, and presence of matrix etc.
In some cases, the occurrence of new genetic variants may be advantageous in a given environment, increasing the fitness of individuals, and the frequency of such variants may therefore rise due to positive selection.
