In contrast, permeability of the barrier as measured by shape (perimeter-to-area ratio), which loaded heavily on PC1, fully matched our initial predictions, suggesting that this summary statistic might better reflect trans-barrier dispersal, or that its effect is biologically more meaningful than a finer fragmentation of the barrier.
There are some approaches for fine-grained fragmentation and replication on object/tuple level; however none of these approaches support the flexible query answering application aimed at in this paper.
A finer regional fragmentation currently is not possible due to lack of data for Africa, South America, Russia, and Canada.
Both writers explored with fine effect the fragmentation of the American family.
In contrast, particle shape, density, assessment of fines and resistance to fragmentation were in compliance with the EHE-08 recommendations.
The protection effect was scale dependent, with significant habitat loss and fragmentation at the fine scale but not at the broad scale.
Streit and colleagues (Streit & Xue, 2009) have shown that human microglia stained with the HLA-DR antibody exhibit dystrophic morphology during aging, characterized by fragmentation, loss of fine processes, and swellings at the terminals of cytoplasmic processes (Streit & Xue, 2009).
In tumor cells, deletion of a single HDAC is not sufficient to induce cell death but leads to nuclear bridging and fragmentation, and 'in fine' to cell mitotic catastrophe.
Likewise, in Huntington's disease, the accumulating mutant Huntingtin protein also increased the activity of this GTPase, leading to an excessive mitochondrial fragmentation and, in fine, to synaptic degeneration [ 49].
