Sentence examples for for slow selection from inspiring English sources
6 According to the model, attention can be triggered at multiple levels: two early levels, enabling "fast" selection, and a late level, used for "slow" selection.
In addition, our data demonstrate that increasing levels of co-infection can lead to widespread strain complementation, which acts to maintain high levels of phenotypic and genetic diversity and potentially slow selection for individual variants.
This collateral hypersensitivity raises the possibility that opposing selection for resistance/sensitivity to PM and WR might be used to slow selection of populations of P. falciparum resistant to antifolate treatment.
Commercial regulation of ripening is currently achieved through early harvest, by controlling the postharvest storage atmosphere and genetic selection for slow or late ripening varieties.
A second reason for slow evolutionary rates is selection.
This suggests that if positive directional selection for slow-causing NAT2 haplotypes in specific dietary and environmental conditions has been acting on the genetic evolution of populations, such selective pressures might have acted on multiple standing genetic variation rather than on specific new NAT2 mutations [ 25, 26, 38, 43, 77].
At first glance, this appears consistent with the hypothesis that reversal of fisheries-induced evolution may be slow when selection for early maturation is relaxed by reducing fishing mortality.
When we compare the average trend of d N/d S over patristic distances with that of lsrA, we find much higher values for the latter, suggesting that slow purifying selection of slightly deleterious changes is not driving the differences between the two sets.
Thus, the high formation rate of the mDEL1 mutant may compensate for its slow growth under selection and allow a few clones to develop to contribute heavily to the number of final revertant colonies.
Long-living animals like cattle respond slower to selection than for example annual crops [ 1].
