The molecular data do provide evidence for coadaptation of alleles within different arrangements, as strong linkage disequilibrium is observed between distant loci within arrangements despite no statistical association between more closely linked sites.
Collectively, nucleotide diversities within the repeat regions of clf and fnb loci facilitate high discriminatory power between strains; however, the molecular data do not distinguish the nasal carriage strains belonging to the cohort analyzed in this study from clinical isolates.
However, because the expression patterns of dorsoventral patterning genes are not entirely consistent between Cnidaria and Bilateria, the molecular data do not make clear whether one side of the directive axis corresponds to the dorsal of Bilateria, and the other side to ventral.
Finally, molecular data do not support a monophyletic Arachnida.
Analyses of the expanded molecular data did not reduce conflict with the morphological hypotheses.
Our molecular data do neither confirm nor reject the Bauhinus concept.
One explanation why molecular data do not support a monophyly of H. pelagica (Table 3) might be a deep divergence followed by a rapid radiation.
Because the lice and their primate hosts showed significant codivergence and because molecular data did not differ significantly from clocklike behavior, divergence dates were estimated using methods that both adhere to and relax the molecular clock.
One large study did attempt multi-institutional validation but essentially failed to produce a robust, consistent signature, although the molecular data did appear to enhance the prognostic value of the clinical data available [138].
