The scale-less skin of Gobiodon spp. is covered by mucus that is toxic and multi-functional by reducing predation as well as affecting parasite attachment.
This feature is the root cause of the multi- functional behaviour we have just demonstrated.
Saliva has been shown to have multi- functional characteristics as expressed by several families of salivary molecules, each comprising multiple members that are multifunctional and overlapping [ 1].

A series of High Performance & Multi-Functional Agent (Hi-FA) grout materials have been developed.
Kitagawa and co-workers [32] have prepared multi-functional magnetic particle by using polyelectrolyte multi-layers of cationic fluorescent and anionic polymers as the inner and outer layers, respectively, on the surface of the magnetic nanoparticles.
Considering other joint probability masses might be useful for finding functional relations between some multi function genes.
Define functional by (2.23).
It is reasonable to expect that yeast protein multi-functionality at least partially is reflected in the number of phenotypes displayed by yeast knockout strains, i.e. multi-functional proteins should, on average, be more pleiotropic than mono-functional proteins [ 25].
Saduria entomon [60], [61]), could be investigated by expanding the species representation and climate forcing in some existing multi-species modelling approaches such as Multi-species Virtual Population Analysis [62], Ecopath [27], stochastic time-series methodologies [8], and Bayesian Multi-Species Functional Response models [57], [66].
