Sentence examples for incipient contact from inspiring English sources

One approach is to shorten the running-in phase e.g. by choosing well-aimed topographical parameters for optimized incipient contact conditions.

Regarding the comparison of a single-bead, non-contact incipient wetness preparation method with the corresponding conventional laboratory scale catalyst synthesis procedures, we show that the miniaturized single-bead synthesis is almost as accurate and reproducible as the conventional approach.

Assortative mating, a potentially efficient prezygotic reproductive barrier, may prevent loss of genetic potential by avoiding the production of unfit hybrids (i.e., because of hybrid infertility or hybrid breakdown) that occur at regions of secondary contact between incipient species.

This may be an example of incipient speciation or secondary contact between two species.

When incipient species experience secondary contact, prezygotic isolation mechanisms can become enhanced as a result of selection against hybridization, a process termed reproductive character displacement [ 11- 13].

A simple plan was devised to combine a larger alkali metal (potassium) with a smaller fitting cap (TMEDA instead of tridentate PMDETA) in the hope of encouraging closer intramolecular contact between incipient anion bridges as two distinct metal compounds approach each other to generate a bimetallic assembly.

This concept suggests a marine-speciation paradox, where incipient species that come into contact frequently would prevent allopatric speciation [ 11].

Mapping hybrid defects in contact zones between incipient species can identify genomic regions contributing to reproductive isolation and reveal genetic mechanisms of speciation.

Thereby, the apical surface contacts either an incipient rhabdomere or a neighbouring stalk membrane, which is now clearly distinguishable from the incipient rhabdomere.

Our first example (this section) illustrates cryptic incipient species structure due to secondary contact within geographically defined populations of a taxon of management and conservation concern.

Phylogeographic analyses of the Thekla and especially, crested lark complexes reveal a now classical history [ 65] of multiple fragmentations followed occasionally by the expansion of some refuge lineages that may lead to secondary contact zones between valid or incipient species (Fig. 1).
