Sentence examples for measure divergence from inspiring English sources

Intuitively, this can be understood by considering that polymorphisms can often be confused with fixed differences between species when single, or few, sequence comparisons are used to measure divergence.

The first time point in a clinical study is generally at a point that had already deviated from what can be called a 'healthy state,' whereas experimental studies usually measure divergence from the 'healthy state' under controlled conditions.

For each previous study, we then noted where the reported differentially expressed genes were located in our sorted list, and assessed the resulting significance using a Z score to measure divergence from a random distribution.

Our strategy to measure divergence and conservation was to compare 1) translated amino acid sequences of the H. influenzae and N. meningitidis genes containing uptake sequences to 2) the sequences of homologous proteins present in a standard set of three "comparison" genomes from species without uptake sequences.

As outgroup, we shotgun sequenced a Potamocherus porcus male using Hiseq2000 (three PE lanes, 100 bp long) in order to measure divergence and asses ancestral alleles so that we can apply more powerful tests to detect selection (HKA, Fay-Wu's H).

We will use it to measure divergences to the "initial" and "final" transcriptomic states (two states of reference).

Such analytical methodology will naturally produce "a continuous staging" of the cancer samples, based on a solid foundations of Information Theory, based on the knowledge of transcriptional profile of healthy cells as reference to measure divergences.

Given that little is known about the robustness of these geometric arrangements, we undertook to characterize phyllotaxis by measuring divergence angles between organs along the stems of wild-type and specific mutant plants with obvious defects in phyllotaxis.

Our indicator measures divergence in population trend between bird species predicted by climatic envelope models to be favourably affected by climatic change and those adversely affected.

The KL measures divergence between the root state prior and posterior probability for each MCC tree.

We measured divergence levels per site by estimating the Poisson amino acid distances for each amino acid site in the multiple sequence alignments.
