Sentence examples for moving traits from inspiring English sources

The technical challenges include the difficulty in defining tractable single-gene trait development strategies, the logistics of moving traits from initial to commercial genetic backgrounds, and the disconnect between conditions in farmer's fields and controlled environments.

Whether it's a majestic plume or a set of hot dance moves, traits that help animals have sex tend to evolve most rapidly.

Evolutionary forces will then act on different genes of either sex in order to move trait values closer to their own optimum, which is expected to cause a direct fitness cost in the mating partner.

The degradation of a trait violates any misguided expectations that evolution should always be building everything up, making everything work better, and moving all traits toward perfection.

This fighting style focuses on circular movements, and does not have many finishing moves; traits meant to represent the unpredictability of air and the peaceful character of Airbenders.

The link between the genome sequence and its genetic maps is critical in moving between trait loci and candidate genes underlying such loci.

Likewise, sexual conflict over trait values can lead to sexual selection if one mating partner has a 'tool' that increases its reproductive success while moving its trait value towards its optimum and causing costs in the mating partner (Kokko and Jennions 2014).

Given that phage presence can determine the capacity of Hamiltonella to protect its aphid host against parasitoid wasp attack [ 18], phage transfers like this may move important traits between symbiont taxa.

The links established by a more comprehensive anchoring of the melon genome sequence and the genetic map developed here and elsewhere [ 5, 49] will be vital in moving from quantitative trait loci (QTL) for important traits, to cloning of the underlying genes.

I perhaps might have added that this sentence demonstrates to Darwin's readers that evolution is materialistic that all traits moving through generations must be encoded on molecules, thereby taking popular romantic, emotional "magic" away from mechanisms of evolution.

Another important goal is to characterize the genetic architecture of human diseases and complex traits, moving beyond the common SNPs that have formed the backbone of recent genome-wide association studies.
