Sentence examples for be due to drift from inspiring English sources

Recall, however, that in Endler's model, if fitness variation (that is, traits that enhance fitness) is not present, then the change in a particular trait will be due to drift.

However, a caveat to an adaptive interpretation is that protein repeats frequently evolve concertedly via unequal crossing over (e.g. [34], [35], [36]), resulting in repeat homogenization within proteins and divergence among proteins that can be due to drift alone.

Because none of the observed sequence variations correlated with the well known mutations known to confer Oseltamivir resistance and none of the variations were in the active site [10], it was suggested that the decrease in sensitivity might be due to drift mutations rather than from exposure to Oseltamivir.
