The adoption of suitable absorbing and reflecting boundary conditions enables the evolution of the first-passage probability to be computed.
Moreover a study with CMV has shown that evolution of virulence during passages did not affect virus multiplication [11].
Sequences whose sites have experienced large numbers of substitutions, either as a function of a rapid rate of molecular evolution or the passage of long periods of evolutionary time, will likely exhibit a high frequency of homoplasious character states.
The experiments described hereafter were performed at passage number 7 25 for DLD1+7 cells and 13 25 for DLD1+13 cells to limit evolution of the karyotypes and passage number 1 3 for amniocytes, whose proliferation was limited to few passages.> 10.7554/eLife.05068.004 Figure 1.
Nevertheless, we believe that at this interface of "molecular communication" between the sexes, much can be gained towards comprehending the evolution of eusociality at the passage through the monogamy window [ 25, 28], with inter-sexual conflict being replaced by inter-sexual cooperation.
A major transition in the evolution of life has been the passage from unicellular to pluricellular organisms.
It is shown that the simple theoretical model is able to capture the different regimes of the experimental setup, so that an equivalent linear Mathieu oscillator, presenting the same evolution of energy, from a first passage time point of view, was identified.
Here, we simulate the evolution of bacteria in repeated serial passage experiments to explore how features such as fitness landscape ruggedness, the size of the mutational target under selection, and the mutation supply rate, interact to affect the evolution of microbial populations of different sizes.
At that moment, Agassi, the No. 2 tennis player in the world, will probably be 2,000 miles away on a court in Queens, but the day will mark another passage in the evolution of Agassi.
This paper reports an experimental campaign that aims at measuring the evolution of bridge modal properties during the passage of a vehicle.
