For example, genetic variants associated with higher body mass index (weight (kg)/height (m)) would be expected to show a consistent association with higher blood pressure.
That is, genes in a module are expected to show more consistent behaviour, while the more detailed definition of biochemical processes forming modules allows us to identify modules of opposing nature.
While both the piRNA and CRISPR pathways are expected to show elevated rates of evolution consistent with the Red Queen dynamics often seen in host pathogen interactions, the rate of evolution might still be very different between the two systems because of their different population genetic environments.
Sequencing reads from a given substrain at a specific SNP are expected to show close to 100% base call identity, consistent with the inbred nature of the strains.
This finding is consistent with the notion that miRNAs are usually highly stable molecules and generally not expected to show pronounced daily variations in abundance (see below).
In such a situation, we would expect the spatial autocorrelation results to show consistent (and increasing) negative kinship-values with geographic distance.
However, the fluxes of glucose 6-phosphate isomerase, fructose bisphosphate aldolase, 3-phosphoglycerate kinase, pyruvate decarboxylase, and alcohol dehydrogenase reactions were substantially lower under 2.8% oxygenation conditions than under even lower oxygen availability [ 23] whereas the corresponding transcript levels did not, as expected, show consistent behavior [ 21].
However, more individuals than expected by chance showed consistent behaviour among years, thus suggesting some genetically determined predisposition, as found in other birds (e.g., Pulido et al. 1996).
When GC content varies from low to high, both models show consistent predictions for expected codon compositions that are very similar to the distributions of the observed.
