Sentence examples for mammals we compared from inspiring English sources

For a broad diversity of species (invertebrates, reptiles, amphibians, fishes, birds, and mammals), we compared the cost of gamete production between the sexes in terms of the investment in gonad tissue and the rate of gamete biomass production.

In order to assess the potential extent of evolutionary trans-changes between teleosts and mammals we compared the enhancer activity of 47 sequences in mouse and zebrafish.

To ask whether related genes may function in gonadal differentiation in nematodes and mammals, we compared sex-biased gonadal transcripts from the two species.

In mammals, we compared bats with their sister clade on our consensus phylogenetic tree; here, in data set A, bats were compared with humans and mice, whereas in data set C, bats were compared with horses, cats, and dogs.

To mechanistically characterize the microevolutionary processes active in altering transcription factor (TF) binding among closely related mammals, we compared the genome-wide binding of three tissue-specific TFs that control liver gene expression in six rodents.

To verify whether GC3-biased gene domains were conserved in mammals, we compared between human and mouse, and counted the number of orthologous genes that were still identified as GC3 biased after the domain mapping to the other genome.

To determine whether patterns of limb COM position broadly explain differences in stride lengths among mammals, we also compared relative mass distributions in groups that differ in rSL (i.e. cursorial mammals, non-cursorial mammals, and primates).

To study differences in intron size between mammals and reptiles, we compared the intron size of ancestors of each group.

In order to assess conservation of responses to BaP in mammals and Oikopleura, we compared pathways significantly affected by BaP in this experiment and in a gene set from a microarray experiment using human macrophages [ 37].

By contrast, when we compared mammals and evolutionarily distant species, such as Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila melanogaster, the amino acid identity was less than 50%.

We compared mammal use of riparian forests within both continuous and highly fragmented forests, and examined the effects of corridor width, corridor habitat structure, and landscape context on mammal species richness, composition, and functional diversity, all of which were higher in continuous forests than in riparian remnants.
