In this way, agents can achieve scale and amortize the customer acquisition cost while still maintaining specialization in more complex lines.
To assess the evolutionary stability of host range, we need to combine ecological, phylogenetic, and experimental approaches to identify the mechanisms that generate and maintain specialization (Hufbauer and Roderick 2005).
YAP functions as a rheostat in maintaining metabolic specialization, differentiation, and quiescence within the hepatocyte compartment.
Overall, both cultivar defense against Escovopsis and Escovopsis' attraction to host cultivars may maintain Escovopsis' specialization and prevent rampant host-switching.
Given that sib-mating coupled with bidirectional CI contribute to maintaining host specialization, it may be envisaged to introduce agents with different host niche and infected with different Wolbachia strains.
Thus, the Dlx5 and Dlx6 genes are true p63 transcriptional targets, whose regulation during limb development is presumably needed to maintain the specialization and stratification of the AER cells (2, 7).
Considering that the majority of birds maintained their foraging specialization, it would be interesting to explore how spatial scale and variation in food availability may affect pair formation and nest location.
Assortative or disassorative pair formation based on foraging technique could occur only if flock members maintained their foraging specializations.
For specialists, the rule of maxima has to be maintained except for 3 specializations, for which a shortage is already observed: child psychiatry, acute medicine and emergency medicine.
I would mention in the discussion that this difference in spectral properties may be the result of functional sub-specialization that maintained both genes in the lancelet genome after duplication.
