Sentence examples for molecular clock used from inspiring English sources

a Specific molecular clock used for the estimation: 3.7 × 10-9 per site per year.

We made seven different cross types from different species combinations representing five different genetic distances, covering absolute divergence times of between a few thousand years to 2.7/3.8/7.4 million years depending on the molecular clock used (see Table 2).

The molecular clock used for age estimations, which was the same as the one Nicolas et al. (2005) used, was based on the Brassicaceae species, which is currently the most reliable clock for S. latifolia.

Depending on the molecular clock used, this translates into a range of absolute time since speciation from several thousand years to 2.7/3.8/7.4 million years (internal/fossil record/Gondwana fragmentation calibration; from here on results of the three clocks will be reported in this order, see also Table 2).

Fig. 2 This figure illustrates the "molecular clock" using the most parsimonious evolutionary reconstruction shown in Fig. 1a.

Neighbor, without a molecular clock using the W-curve matrix as input, places the sequences in the same clades.

It is likely that calibrating a molecular clock using these laboratory-passaged strains would also have detrimental effects on estimating tMRCAs.

To investigate whether rates of molecular evolution fit with a strict molecular clock model, the likelihood of the ML phylogeny was recalculated with the constraint of global molecular clock using the Rambaut parameterization for clock optimization implemented in PAUP4b10 [58].

It is possible that specific, small regions of Xist are evolving at different rates in each species but that this signal is lost in the total data set, so we also conducted the LRT of the molecular clock using a sliding window approach.

Simulations were run with a strict molecular clock using uniformly distributed priors.

We present a new method for relaxing the assumption of a strict molecular clock using Markov chain Monte Carlo to implement Bayesian modeling averaging over random local molecular clocks.
