Sentence examples for manipulate costs from inspiring English sources

More information on the consequences and distribution of molecular variation in resistance to Bt crops will be useful to improve our ability to manipulate costs and incomplete resistance.

Whereas most research on fitness costs associated with resistance to Bt toxins has been done in the laboratory and greenhouse, field research is needed to enhance our ability to manipulate costs (Gassmann et al. 2009).

Manipulating costs and fitness of resistant individuals on transgenic insecticidal crops may be especially important for thwarting evolution of resistance in haplodiploid and parthenogenetic pests.

Election administrators can selectively manipulate participation costs for different individuals and groups, leading to biased electoral outcomes.

Carriere et al. (2010) provide an excellent overview of the success of these approaches over the past 15 years; they conclude that, while refuges have been generally successful, better understanding of source-sink dynamics and improved ability to manipulate resistance costs in pest species may be important avenues for future research.

It is intrinsically fragile, since it is grounded on uncertain predictions and it exhibits a large and non-linear exposure to uncertainty (Ansar et al. 2016), even when the predictions are not manipulated (often costs and timelines are systematically underestimated, and benefits are systematically overestimated).

Sir Paul strongly denied he had implied Barclays could manipulate its borrowing costs down and a committee of MPs agreed that there was no evidence of deliberate wrongdoing.

However most studies do not manipulate both the costs and benefits of a choice, and thus even if we identify neurons that apparently encode a signal reflecting the subjective rewarding value of an outcome, these neurons could simply be encoding a saliency signal.
