The noninheritance of acquired traits does not mean that the genes cannot be changed by environmental influences; X-rays and other mutagens certainly do change them, and the genotype of a population can be altered by selection.
Finally, comparison of gene lists obtained between these two diverse chicken types indicate the TLR and JAK/STAT signaling are conserved when responding to MDV infection and may be altered by selection of genes exhibiting ASE found at the start of each pathway.
The low frequency of this allele in the starting population makes it unlikely that this allele would be identified as a favorable allele in a study of association between methionine content and genetic loci in the starting population, but it clearly exhibits the characteristics of an allele that was altered by selection such as this study.
The blindfolds have been altered by technology.
The brain cells have been altered by the breakthrough.
Kinetic parameters are less strongly influenced by spatial resolution but are altered by the selection of specific tumour regions.
In the current study, we used this novel hyperoxia-tolerant strain as a model to identify differentially expressed genes that are altered by hyperoxia selection and to investigate the role of single genes that may functionally contribute to hyperoxia tolerance.
These previous results, and the necessity to further explore the potential of characterization of brain areas for use in animal welfare research, led to the question of whether stress-related brain areas could be altered by genetic selection for low early mortality and/or maternal care in laying hens.
The in vitro drug release experiments showed that the drug release behaviour can be altered by using various selections of biocompatible polymers to suit different therapeutic applications.
Splicing and transcription are tightly coupled processes, and splice-site selection is altered by changes in chromatin structure, transcription rates, and promoter identity and occupancy.
