Sentence examples for be under strong selection from inspiring English sources
Given these theoretical results, we expect mutational robustness to be typically weakly selected while environmental robustness should be under strong selection [10], [13], [16], [19] [22].
For example, mutations in intrahost viral populations are likely to be under strong selection to evade the immune response and drug therapy, and microbes are often subjected to strong selective pressures in experimental studies of adaptation.
A. Once mate choice identifies a trait as informative about something, that trait is going to be under strong selection to amplify its appearance.
Males courting potentially sexually cannibalistic females may be under strong selection to bias their courtship efforts away from hungry females that may be more likely to attack.
We identified a region around 1.5 kb upstream of Ma1 coding sequence (CDS) with substantially reduced nucleotide diversity in M. domestica compared to M. sylvestris, and another region about 750 bp downstream of Ma1 CDS when compared to M. sieversii in Kazakhstan (Fig. 6c f), indicating that the Ma1 might be under strong selection during apple domestication.
Gene Ontology analyses revealed that defense response-related genes are significantly enriched in both cultivars, indicating that japonica and indica might be under strong selection pressure for these traits during domestication.
These results are consistent with the idea that the RBS of a gene might be under stronger selection to increase its openness with temperature.
It is easy to infer that the Asiatic honeybee may be under stronger selection to defend against pathogens and parasites than the Western honeybee.
Additionally and/or alternatively, Asiatic honeybee adults may be under stronger selection pressure from pathogens and parasites, resulting in greater positive and diversifying selection on antimicrobial peptide sequences than in the Western honeybee.
