Under salt stress, percent contribution of OsGS2 to total OsGS expression in young leaves still was much higher than other members; however, in old leaves, expression of all OsGS1 gene family members were clearly up-regulated and resulted in the reduction of percent contribution of OsGS2.
In the pools, as age increases the percent contribution of the PCDD TEQ levels increases while the percent contribution of the PCDF TEQ levels decreases for all race/ethnicity and sex strata.
However, the percent contribution of BDE-153 to ΣPBDE increased while the percent contribution of BDE-47 to ΣPBDE significantly decreased.
The percent contribution of each PCB congener to ∑PCB (or congener profile) in hair and washing liquid and the percent contribution of individual OCPs to their sum are presented in Figure 1.
SIMPER analysis provided us the percent contribution of invertebrate species to the observed difference in community composition between mesocosms with and without mud crabs44.
SIMPER analysis provided us the percent contribution of invertebrate species to the observed change in community composition in the crab infested area44.
Percent contribution of free-living and attached autotrophs and heterotrophs in control and warm treatments were applied to bulk 14C- and 3H-derived primary and bacterial production rates to estimate net assimilation values in carbon and nitrogen units (Table 1).
Moreover, the percent contribution of foliose chlorolichens to litterfall tended to be higher in later-succession forest types, whereas the contributions of cyanolichens and fruticose chlorolichens were lower in these forest types.
