We establish how monopolization, and more generally evolution-mediated priority effects, influence ecological patterns at multiple scales of space, time, and biological organization.
Taken together, Latimeria, an early-diverged and aquatic-living vertebrate species with generally slow evolution, shows evidence for (near) neutral evolution of its V1R and fast evolution of its T2R repertoire.
Generally, "concerted evolution" and "birth and death" models were often invoked to explain the divergence and evolution of multigene families [ 54].
Although a modicum of time is spent exploring the generally chilly evolution of Dalgliesh's character and his first stirrings of emotion toward a woman he meets here, not even that is allowed to slow down the business at hand.
Generally satisfactory evolution of first, second, and some higher order moments is found.
Because network growth based on branching/fusion events is widespread in biological systems, this general model might provide useful insights for the study of other systems and, more generally, the evolution of spatial networks in biological systems.
Generally, coke evolution must be a dehydrogenation process in which hydrogen is continuously extracted from the deposited and depositing products that cannot then be moved continuously from the system [1, 2, 3, 4].
More generally, the evolution of genome size in small populations will be more influenced by mutational biases.
Generally, neutral evolution with relaxed selective constraints is treated as the null hypothesis [ 19, 34] and positive selection is invoked if the null hypothesis is rejected.
Generally, the evolution of vertebrate odorant and vomeronasal receptors is characterized by rapid gene turnover and lineage-specific phylogenetic clustering [ 8, 9, 13, 39].
