Furthermore, we demonstrate that the CRt population sampled from noncultured ticks is heterogeneous; with up to one distinct strain variant per tick, and that the pattern of mutations might suggest selection on synonymous sites.
For normal tissue, the problem of heterogeneity might be negligible, but in cancer, that is well known for its heterogeneous set-up, applying different tissue samples introduces the risk that the heterogeneity is behind the expression differences, and not the degradation.

This allowed the structuring of a comprehensive list of forces of change based on researchers' views that was further on validated and amended by the more heterogeneous line-up for the second workshop.
