Alone, the values of vector competence and EIPs are informative, however we detected highly variable times to initial and maximum dissemination and dissemination rates based on the strain of dengue virus.
Similar estimates were found by Michaux et al. [ 17] but Sato and Suzuki [ 38] obtained highly variable times for the Apodemus/ Tokudaia divergence with each of their five data sets, ranging from 6.5 7.6 My for IRBP to 11.3 13.2 Mya for mitochondrial cyt b.
In addition, they are likely an artifact from highly variable time series and this is referred by the lack of regular patterns.
Furthermore, in repeated trials, a fly took a highly variable time of hundreds of ms to make its first orientation choice (Figs. 3A, C), which often varied haphazardly between the stimuli (Fig. 3B).
Cancer development is widely recognized to be a somatic cell evolutionary process with complex dynamics and highly variable time frames.
Sensitization occurs after multiple exposures over a highly variable time, the latency period ranging from several weeks to as long as 30 years (Malo et al. 1992).
Overall, nodes with highly variable time estimates among different partitions are those without calibration or are close to the root, where the calibrations are least informative (Table S4 and Figure S2).
With such electrodes, a variety of factors including gliosis around the recording tip can cause degradation of the recording over a highly variable time course (Biran et al., 2005; Suner et al., 2005; Griffith & Humphrey, 2006).
However, the highly variable time between the onset of symptoms and the date of diagnosis (lag time), which was confirmed in our analysis, means that the use of date of diagnosis as a measure of disease onset could be less reliable.
Yellow eels spend a highly variable time period in continental waters, ranging between 2 and 20 years on average, depending on (i) sex, with males being smaller and taking substantially less than females to reach sexual maturity and (ii) latitudinal position, with eels in Northern Europe taking substantially longer than those from Mediterranean regions (Vøllestad 1992).
In the highly stressful desert environment, productivity is generally very low; however, it is also highly variable from time to time and from place to place.
