In contrast, the 'i.u.p.' approach concludes dominance only if there are significant differences at all points.
Due to sampling variability in the survey data, a visual inspection of these curves cannot be used to conclude statistical dominance and, as a result, dominance tests were conducted.
Using another design introduced by Hua et al. (2003) on rice, the "immortalized F2" (iF2) population developed from pair crosses of RILs, Tang et al. (2007, 2010) concluded that dominance effects at heterotic loci as well as additive-by-additive epistatic interactions played an important role in the genetic basis of heterosis in maize.
Like Jonathan Marks ("A Feckless Quest for the Basketball Gene," Op-Ed, April 8), I am baffled by those who conclude that the dominance of a racial group in a profession is clear evidence of related genetic differences between the races.
With signs of weakness everywhere, from record high unemployment and record lows in the stock market to soaring disaffection with the Liberal Democratic Party, everyone from political scientists to newspaper pundits have begun to conclude that the dominance of the conservative party, which has held power for all but a few months since 1955, is about to end.
When comparing the relative importance of the contribution of the variables of the different subsystems to the total system uncertainty permits us to conclude the clear dominance of the secondary subsystem.
Therefore, we conclude that, despite dominance of the exocytic pathway by VSG and VSG-related proteins, there is little evidence for simplification in the trypanosome chaperone requirement, and T. brucei retains a sophisticated, flexible and complex folding environment within the ER.
However, since the hybrids in this study were produced only by crossing a domesticated dam with a wild sire, we are unable to conclude whether the dominance is purely caused by maternal effects or if the domesticated strain has a superior influence on the transcription of the offspring too.
If there is no significant difference between curves in either direction then this approach concludes non-dominance.
In view of the above we conclude that exerting absolute dominance is crucial and therefore, reproduction self-restriction by the α-female or reproductive sharing because it is ineffective to lay eggs above of the group capacity, are unlikely to occur.
