Sentence examples for contributing evolutionary from inspiring English sources

We also show that it is possible to make significant progress towards excluding parapatric speciation as a contributing evolutionary process in a selected study system.

This study on Telopea shows that the evidence for temporal exclusion of gene flow can be found even outside obvious geographical contexts, and that it is possible to make significant progress towards excluding parapatric speciation as a contributing evolutionary process.

An evolutionary ontology of the living world should distinguish the real evolutionary players, the units with causal powers resulting from or contributing to evolutionary processes.

In particular, it has often encouraged the identification of evolutionary players in our understanding the units with causal powers either resulting from or contributing to evolutionary processes with phylogenetic species, and clades.

Likewise, the dating of phylogenetic splits may contribute to the understanding of other processes potentially contributing to evolutionary divergence (and adaptive radiation), such as introgressive hybridization [ 8, 9].

One approach to determining which factors specifically contribute to phenotypic variability is to induce the types of changes to the developing brain that are thought to be contributing to evolutionary changes, and then examine the resulting brain organization.

Gene gains and losses are important processes contributing to evolutionary innovation and differentiation [ 64, 65], perhaps especially so in teleosts because of the teleost-specific whole genome duplication event [ 66].

These findings confirm previous observations [ 3] indicating that tRNAs represent genetic "anchoring elements" for the uptake of listerial prophage DNA by transduction processes and thus contributing to evolutionary genome diversity of listeriae.

Transposition of both DNA transposons and retrotransposons can also have beneficial effects: e.g. by promoting new patterns of gene expression [ 85], and even contributing to evolutionary bursts and speciation [ 86].

Therefore, it is not surprising that this relatively unstable region of the human genome is also involved in promoting the malignant phenotype as well as contributing to evolutionary divergence, possibly employing similar mechanisms (Krull et al, 2007).

Gene loss or loss of function can contribute to evolutionary novelties and can be positively selected for8,9.
