Sentence examples for megabat from inspiring English sources

The current study was designed to reveal the retinotectal pathway in the brain of the echolocating megabat Rousettus aegyptiacus.

To contribute data relevant to this debate, we used immunohistochemical techniques to reveal the architecture of the neuromodulatory systems of the Egyptian rousette (Rousettus aegypticus), an echolocating megabat.

However, there were 11 discrete nuclei forming part of these systems in the brain of the megabat studied that were not evident in an earlier study of a microbat.

The occurrence of these nuclei align the megabat studied more closely with primates than any other mammalian group and clearly distinguishes them from the microbat, which aligns with the insectivores.

If neural characteristics are considered strong indicators of phylogenetic relationships, then the data of the current study strongly supports the diphyletic origin of Chiroptera and aligns the megabat most closely with primates in agreement with studies of other neural characters.

The 2× species with slightly higher coverage, such as megabat (2.6×) and rock hyrax (2.2×), have the lowest error rates, as expected.

The mismatch rates for aligned 2× and ENCODE bases ranged from 2.6 (elephant) to 25.1 (hedgehog) mismatches per kb (Table 2), while the indel rates showed somewhat less variation, with insertion rates from 0.22 (megabat) to 0.86 (hedgehog) per kb and deletion rates from 0.24 (tenrec) to 0.77 (microbat) per kb.

Here we present a comprehensive study of the phylogenetic relationships among megabat genera based on a large DNA-sequence dataset.

However, prior to the present study no class II genes have been reported from any species of megabat.

The Pteropus vampyrus genome sequencing project has produced 8,051,001 genome traces http://www.hgsc.bcm.tmc.edu/project-species-m-Megabat.hgsc?pageLocation=Megabat and is slated for completion with 2x coverage.

The likelihood ratio test was based on the potential phylogeny {{{{{{bear, dog}, cat}, horse}, {microbat, megabat}}, {cow, alpaca}}, human} for CSRP3 and {{{{{dog, bear}, {microbat, megabat}}, cow}, hedgehog}, human} for BPHL.
