Do these primary curricula and textbooks contain evolutionary concepts or prerequisite concepts of the evolutionary theory and, if they do, how are said concepts presented?
Variance in reproductive success among individuals in a population results from both selection and random events and is a prerequisite for evolutionary change, population differentiation, and finally speciation.
Such stability over evolutionary time-scales was the prerequisite for a potential role of these directions as favoring the direction of evolution.
The ortholog relationships among the yeast genes have been accurately determined, a prerequisite for calculating evolutionary rate.
However, a sound phylogenetic hypothesis of a taxon is the prerequisite to reconstruct evolutionary changes in the group of interest.
An essential prerequisite to connecting evolutionary and functional changes is to test whether positively selected sites are involved in the functional shift.
A prerequisite for adaptive evolutionary divergence of hybrids is the invasion of an alternative "niche" in which the hybrids are subjected to different selection pressures, and the parallel evolution of reproductive isolation between the parents and the hybrids.
Whereas prior studies of contemporary evolution in conservation contexts have tended to emphasize modest but persistent disturbance and directional trait change (Visser 2008; Darimont et al. 2009), such conditions are not prerequisite for eco-evolutionary conservation concerns.
High ploidy levels and sexuality have probably been the prerequisites for the evolutionary success of dogroses after the retreat of Pleistocenic ice shields, because dogroses are very widely spread in Central Europe and occur on a broad range of different habitats, whereas diploid and tetraploid species of other sections of Rosa are mainly found in glacial refugia [ 15].
The conservation of the β-Gal binding site may be a result of an evolutionary selection by HBGAs, as a prerequisite for viral survival.
