Sentence examples for converging evolution from inspiring English sources

Snowdon proposed that looking at cooperation through converging evolution may be illuminating and, for that, he compared humans (who cooperate to breed) to the cooperative-breeding New World Callitrichid primates (Snowdon and Cronin 2007; Cronin et al. 2010).

In summary, we found only limited evidence for converging evolution to shape the overall composition of fungal secretomes.

LdBPPS is distantly related to the known bornyl diphosphate synthase from sage in a phylogenetic analysis, indicating a converged evolution of camphor biosynthesis in sage and L. dulcis.

However, caution should be used in using the results as evidence for shared evolutionary ancestry because of the possible confounding effects of convergent evolution by which multiple unrelated amino acid sequences converge on a common tertiary structure.

Instead, interaction patterns have converged independently by the interaction of unrelated genes in a process dubbed "convergent evolution".

The study revealed that Chilesaurus is one of the best known examples of "convergent evolution" within one animal, where a range of characteristics specialised for different functions converge into a single species resulting in a mosaic of physical features.

However, we suggest that convergent evolution is unlikely since the parameter values varied over six orders of magnitude instead of converging on a single value.

It is tempting to speculate that these systems have converged during evolution, very much like the independently evolved catalytic triad (Ser-His-Asp) in proteases [36].

The design space is pruned using grammatical evolution converging to the best dynamic memory manager implementation for the target application.

The Ancestor's Tale (2004), structured after Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales, traced the human branch of the phylogenetic tree back to points where it converges with the evolution of other species.

Asher cites a wonderful instance of how evidence for evolution converges from different lines of enquiry.
