His belief that natural resources should be conserved led him to conclude that bigness in particular, large industries and large cities would lead to the depletion of those resources.
In summary, our results show that mutation of some highly conserved residues lead to the loss of recombination activity and that these defects are due to impaired DNA binding affinity or affect specific target DNA cleavage, indicating that these conserved residues both in the N-terminus and C-terminus region of phiC31 integrase are essential in DNA recombination.

After cloning of the PCR product we observed that the reading frame was conserved and lead to the same stop codon.
Second, while it is essential to test the performance of motif finding algorithms on genomic data (as above), it is possible that there are other conserved motifs in the data, besides those with which we are evaluating performance, and these conserved motifs lead to lower nPC and sSn measurements.
In order to assess more systematically and quantitatively whether differences in the number of conserved interactions lead to significant differences in number of correctly assigned functional orthologous pairs, we counted how many pairs in each alignment is reported as functional orthologous in the HomoloGene database, considered here as a 'gold standard'.
Comprehensive analysis of conserved miRNAs led to the identification of 146 annotated miRNA families expressed in African rice panicles, including 62 canonical families, 20 variant ones and 64 siRNA-like ones, according to the classification of Jeong et al. (2011) (Additional files 6 and 9).
Even though mitosomes are too diverged to be recognized by Bax, off-target membrane permeabilization appears to be conserved and leads to cell death completely independently of mitochondria.
(iii) In 18 E. coli the CRISPR2 contains a large (∼0.5 kb) non-coding sequence highly conserved which led [23] to consider the existence of two CRISPR at this position.
These findings suggested that the genetic diversity of the G blocks might be limited in Brassica species, or a feature of the G block is evolutionarily conserved, which leads to few informative markers available for comparative analysis.
