Sentence examples for may facilitate adaptation from inspiring English sources

Such coupling may facilitate adaptation during evolution.

Conversely, specialization may facilitate adaptation to competent hosts and allow greater within -host population densities [ 1].

These genes may facilitate adaptation to drought conditions and promote plant growth recovery upon rewatering.

Additionally, recombination between co-infecting RNA viruses may facilitate adaptation or the emergence of novel viruses [ 9, 10].

Even gene expression differences that are purely plastic are important to further our understanding of ecology and colonization, and may facilitate adaptation in other non-plastic traits [ 63].

Such hyper-mutability may facilitate adaptation, in part, by increasing the rate at which beneficial mutations arise [ 11], especially with respect to several virulence-related phenotypes [ 12– 15].

On the other hand, competition may also facilitate adaptation if a competitor (or predator) 'pushes' a focal species in the direction of the new optimum (Jones 2008; Osmond and Mazancourt 2013).

Genetic redundancy may result from the genomic architecture of adaptive traits, with many genes of small effect determining adaptive phenotypes, and this may facilitate local adaptation despite high levels of gene flow to a greater extent than for phenotypes determined by one or few genes.

Occasionally, increasing the mutation rate may facilitate the adaptation to different stimuli in bacterial populations [1].

Interestingly, the RTE1 transcript is up-regulated by ethylene (Resnick et al. 2006), suggesting that RTE1 may facilitate the adaptation response of plants to ethylene.
