As compared with uncovered loess slopes, an overlying sand layer delayed runoff production, reduced cumulative runoff and increased cumulative soil loss, as well as enhancing variations among slope gradients.
From a screen of point-variants (Figure S8 in File S1), three affinity enhancing variations Y1W, D5Y and T10Y having the respective affinities Kd = 380±80 nM, Kd = 280±40 nM and Kd = 310±10 nM (Table S3 in File S1) were identified.
The principles that enhance variation have been identified at other levels of organization.
Beyond a platform to enhance variation for diverse agricultural traits, our findings provide a foundation for dissecting complex relationships between gene-regulatory changes and control of quantitative traits.
Balancing selection would be expected to maintain or enhance variation across a bottleneck whereas directional selection would reduce genetic diversity.
It may be beneficial to enhance variation in commercially produced pathogens by periodically introducing new isolates and diversifying the culturing media, but this remains to be tested.
Two devices (one used as reference and the other as sensor) are measured at the same time in order to get rid of current drifts which are due to organic semiconductor degradation or bias stress, and to enhance variations induced by the DNA sensing mechanism.
Mill colourist Mikey Rossiter graded the final sequence, giving it a warm wash to emphasize the time period while also enhancing the variation in the ink from dark to light and giving it more dimension.
Haas et al proposed that these gene-poor repeat-rich loci are dynamic regions of the genome that underpin the evolutionary potential of P. infestans by promoting genome plasticity and enhancing genetic variation of effector genes.
This concentration is approximately 3-fold below the Kd of TNF1, and was used in order to increase the high-end dynamic range for quantifying enhancing point variations.
