Sentence examples for by neutral processes from inspiring English sources

Simulation of expected site-wise ΔSSLS distribution (6): homoplasious amino acid replacements may arise by neutral processes and, therefore, we used simulation to determine whether site-wise convergence was more significant than expected by chance.

July 2013 Scientific American published a very interesting article, "The Surprising Origins of Evolutionary Complexity," on the evolution of complex biological systems by neutral processes.

Are these patterns consistent with the action of natural selection, or can they be explained by neutral processes in the Arabidopsis genome?

We then sought to further test the consistency of our data with a scenario of a small population exiting and expanding out of Africa, the emergence of new variants during this process and the increase of their frequencies up to intermediate values by neutral processes.

Moreover, the set of non-significant coregulations (p>0.1, even before controlling for multiple testing) and those established by the (MarA,SoxS) pair implied a total of 73 out of 119 FFLs, with X and Y being interacting hubs, and whose presence could be explained by neutral processes alone according to the null network model considered.

We suggest that nonefficient reactions were incorporated by neutral processes.

Although we do not fully understand the biological significance of AF extrolites, the fact that AF and ST clusters are under strong purifying selection [ 39] indicates that clustering is actively maintained to counteract degradation by random neutral processes.

Phylogenetic analyses were performed to answer whether the community assembly in both the native forest and derived rubber plantations is influenced by deterministic or neutral processes (stochastic).

An alternative explanation for genome and intron size variation in amniotes is suggested by theories of neutral processes and their effect on genome architecture (Lynch 2007).

If structurally complex elements of our genome can also arise by ratchet-like neutral processes, then SE functionality, insofar as it entails positive selection for a trait, should not automatically be assumed.

In this work, we used comparative phylogenetic approaches to investigate if the variations in genome sizes (GS) should be considered as adaptive or neutral processes by the comparison between GS and flower diameters (FD) of 50 Passiflora species, more specifically, within its two most species-rich subgenera, Passiflora and Decaloba.
