He became more and more closed off.
The observed morphological distinctiveness might be result of adaptations to life in the Alaotra wetlands, similar to the Alaotra bamboo lemur species, Hapalemur alaotrensis, which is also recognized as a distinct species despite being genetically close to the more widespread Hapalemur griseus.
This is the way things would be if our love lives actually mirrored recent scientific findings, which tell us the human family is so genetically close that we share more than 99percentt of our DNA.
Phm xy will be close to 1 for more genetically similar individuals, who are thus more likely to produce homozygous offspring.
Analyses of IBD using Rousset's (2000) genetic distance among individuals showed that within the RRV monitoring area, raccoon pairs that were more genetically related were, on average, also geographically closer to each other (slope, β = 0.0020, P < 0.017).
Our protocol distinguished between clones collected in close physical proximity, which might be more genetically similar than individuals sampled at random from a population.
Therefore, we expect that it will be more frequent for each read of a pair to map to genetically close regions, rather than to another segmental duplication copy in a remote location on the genome.
The Manipuri was shown to be genetically close to three other Indian pony breeds, but genetically more distant from the Marwari, the sole Indian horse breed in the study.
And other scientists have suggested that if scientists create 1,000 or more genetically distinct stem cell lines, organs could be grown that would be a close enough genetic match to avoid rejection by patients' immune systems.
Genetically close relatives (e.g., the couple's parents or siblings) are expected to behave more cooperatively leading to shorter birth intervals than genetically more distant relatives (e.g., the couple's aunts and uncles).
