Sentence examples for amount of gene flow from inspiring English sources

A higher amount of gene flow for oilseed rape under extreme climatic conditions was reported [76].

Now, a comprehensive study of canola fields reports that pollen can travel considerable distances, but that the amount of gene flow is minimal.

We determine how the maximum amount of gene flow that admits preservation of the locally adapted haplotype, hence of polymorphism at both loci, depends on recombination rate and selection coefficients.

The study is "probably the best piece of work so far" on the question of gene flow and speciation, says Guy Bush of Michigan State University in East Lansing, although Nick Barton of the University of Edinburgh in the United Kingdom points out that the amount of gene flow the team found is quite small.

This form is rare since even a small amount of gene flow may remove genetic differences between parts of a population.

It is also widely acknowledged that gene flow can be a creative force which provides new genetic variation for reciprocal selection, and that the antagonist with the higher amount of gene flow therefore has a general advantage [68], [69], [70].

Planktotrophic species show greater amounts of gene flow across their ranges than nonplanktotropic species.

High values of θST (0.213 and 0.364 for B. insularis and C. corymbosa respectively) suggested that low amounts of gene flow occur among the study populations.

Absent information regarding historical inter-regional differences in ecotone morphology, any conclusions regarding the magnitude of gene flow from rainforest into ecotone populations seem speculative, especially in light of relatively large amounts of gene flow that would be necessary to erase morphological divergence between habitats.

It employs an opportunistic breeding strategy for exploitation of favourable but unpredictable breeding opportunities [29], [41], and therefore has a very low breeding site fidelity [42], [43], [44] which is indicative of high amounts of gene flow possibly swamping local selection [45].

Population-genetic theory strongly argues against the first scenario, as a result of extremely large population sizes of bacterial populations that would necessitate large amounts of gene flow for immigrant strains to be detected in established populations and contribute to genetic differentiation [92].
