The findings were published online 12 September in the Proceedings of the Royal Society, B. The data suggest more genetic distinctiveness between populations across the continent than the previous study, says Samuel Wasser, a conservation biologist at the University of Washington, Seattle.
Distinctiveness ratings, consistent across listeners, were significantly correlated with distance-to-mean (p < 0.001; Spearman's ρ [CI95%] = 0.73 [0.62 0.81]; R = 0.53; Figure 2D; Figure S2A): voices located further away from their prototypical voice (i.e., more acoustically dissimilar) were perceived as more distinctive than closer (more acoustically similar) voices.
Additionally, there was a high degree of distinctiveness between locations across river basins as revealed by significant pairwise ΦST -values [e.g., ΦST = 1 between CON-BCY (Mayo-Conchos), CON-COV (Mayo-Nazas), CON-HUA (Mayo-Yaqui) and BCY-HUA (Conchos-Yaqui)].
How can it retain the very qualities that for so long have been a source of BBC strength: distinctiveness, integrity and credibility across all its output.
However, whether the genetic distinctiveness can be found across the distributional range of the sibling species remain to be confirmed.
"This role will allow Charlotte to take a view across channels to drive distinctiveness, quality and risk-taking even further, while offering a single point of contact for programme makers and ensuring audiences get the best programmes, however and wherever they choose to watch".
It bungled efforts in the 1980s to cut costs by sharing the underpinnings of its cars across different brands, blurring their distinctiveness.
