Sentence examples for incidental divergence from inspiring English sources

While incidental divergence during periods of isolation may contribute to the speciation process, it is unlikely to play a dominant role here, given the slow accumulation rate of post-zygotic incompatibilities in birds (for instance, fertility loss is generally observed after 5 MY, and rarely before 2 MY [ 66]).

Collectively, these issues raise the question of the extent to which highly divergent genomic are causally important for speciation versus being incidental consequences of divergence between populations already undergoing little or no introgression [ 33].

In contrast, the development of postzygotic RIMs during the first stage occurs only after there is substantial genetic differentiation between populations, because it comes about only as an incidental outcome of overall genetic divergence.

When this result holds independent of the geographic relationships among populations, then mating isolation is inferred to be an incidental by-product of adaptive divergence [3] [6].

Local adaptation to different environments can promote mating isolation – either as an incidental by-product of trait divergence, or as a result of selection to avoid maladaptive mating.

Bateson-Dozhansky-Muller (BDM) incompatibilities may arise from selection in different populations, but they might also be unconnected to ecological or behavioural divergence, in other words they may be "incidental on other acquired differences" [ 65].

In conclusion, our divergence time estimate suggests that WNV is a relatively young virus and reduces the probability of incidental infections of humans before 1,000 years ago.
