Thus, the differential penetrance of dauer suppression observed after RNAi-based knockdown of DCC components could be a consequence of variable efficacy of RNAi against each targeted gene.
24 Our study demonstrated that adding probiotics to standard triple treatment had the positive consequence of enhancing efficacy, and previous systematic reviews reached the same conclusion.
The use of a visual-tracking paradigm for attention assessment is based on the hypothesis that attention impairments in concussion patients are a consequence of reduced efficacy of predictive timing (Ghajar & Ivry, 2008).
Limited evidence also exists that disability improves after the administration of a home-based behavioral training [59], and as a consequence of self-efficacy improvement, obtained with a self-administered behavioral intervention [41].

As a consequence, the efficacy of selection K u decreases, reflecting the smaller impact of selection on the probability of fixation in the face of increased drift (Equation 1).
As a consequence, the efficacy of this mutant protein to mediate gene regulation was reduced (Figure 8).
