Coefficient of variation (CV) is an index of spatial distribution widely used in ecology for characterizing uniformly (%CV < 100), randomly (%CV = 100) or contagiously (%CV > 100) distributed species [ 15].
As an index of heterogeneity in population density, we estimated the coefficient of variation (CV) in density among these twelve European regions as an index of spatial distribution widely used in ecology for characterizing uniformly (CV < 1), randomly (CV = 1) or contagiously (CV > 1) distributed species [e.g., [ 15]].
Of the five specific GO terms or groups of GO terms, two were characterized by uniformly increased gene expression (apoptosis and response to stress), one by uniformly decreased gene expression (collagen), and two by both increases and decreases in gene expression (protein kinase activity and ion transport).
This pattern is characterized by uniformly distributed DFS in interphasic nuclei, staining of mitotic chromosomes, and reactivity against a 70 75 kDa protein by immunoblotting [6].
The bad period is characterized by uniformly low reproductive investment among clones.
They, instead, display either trivial or highly disordered expression trajectories characterized by uniformly distributed and spike-like expression domains (see Figures S3A S3D).
Remipedia are remarkable, eyeless crustaceans that are characterized by uniformly organized metameric body segments.
These are MS-typical focal, sharply demarcated white matter lesions, characterized by uniformly thin myelin sheaths [ 149].
