Sentence examples for morphological similarities that from inspiring English sources

To adjust for phylogenetically caused correlations (e.g., within-clade morphological similarities that may affect MRS), we initially entered order, family, and genus of each species as nested random effects (which corresponds to the nested ANOVA approach for simple linear models).

Biochemical or morphological similarities that could explain the similarity between blueberry and castor bean are less obvious, however.

These data overturned previous inferences – based on reproductive relationships and morphological similarities – that Tahiti was colonized by multiple Moorean lineages [ 63].

However, it must be pointed out that this is in contradiction with our morphological observations which demonstrated significant morphological similarities, that is, biseriate conidial heads, large globose vesicles, ascostromata when teleomorph present, and suggest a possible common origin of these sections.

Assignment of individuals to L. comizo and L. steindachneri can be difficult due to morphological similarity that has motivated their synonymy [ 31]; conservatively only specimens with clear phenotypes were assigned to L. comizo.

Several morphological similarities suggest that acoelomorphs belong to the Platyhelminthes [1] [3]; however, these characters are often ill-defined or mere symplesiomorphies [4], leaving the status of the phylum Platyhelminthes unsettled.

Also, electrospun nanofibers possess unique properties such as the high surface area to volume ratio, porosity, stability, permeability and morphological similarity to that of extra cellular matrix.

This morphological similarity suggests that the longfin mako is less active than the shortfin mako, one of the fastest and most energetic sharks.

This morphological similarity indicates that formaldehyde treatment per se did not substantially alter the polymer structures.

Nevertheless, there are no reliable fossils that show close morphological similarities to peach8,15 except for subfossils that are mostly from Chinese archaeological sites3,4, because the typical characters of endocarps in peach, i.e., the presence of deep pits and furrows, as well as the apiculate apex, are absent in all these fossils.

Given that nDNA phylogenies (e.g. [ 15]) may reflect the true species relationships more reliably than mtDNA phylogenies with Macaca being basal to the Papionina, we would assume that morphological similarities result from convergent adaptation.
