We now consider two alternatives, which are not mutually exclusive: variation in senescence might be (a) driven by environmental factors other than predation, and (b) the result of phenotypic plasticity rather than genetic divergence.
In ovarian cancer, it detected mutually exclusive variation events between BRCA and genes in the Rb module.
The number of underlying individual transcript alignments exhibiting a specific splicing variation may reflect the in vivo prevalence of the variation as compared with the number of transcripts exhibiting a mutually exclusive variation.
This comparison was performed reciprocally, regardless of whether the label was symmetrical or asymmetrical, so that for every splicing variation identified, the supporting evidence for each mutually exclusive variation was captured.
Figure 2 depicts histograms of the ratio of transcript support for the mutually exclusive symmetrical variations found in the AA, AD and ATE classes between isoforms at each locus for rice and Figure 3 contains the parallel data for Arabidopsis.
RP [ 41, 42] was used to identify mutually exclusive subgroups, with variations in outcome, delineated by combinations of explanatory characteristics.
Ratios of the total number of underlying transcripts responsible for each mutually exclusive pair of splicing variations found via pairwise comparisons of isoforms were calculated, and this value allowed us to infer the major and minor isoforms.
In Plasmodium falciparum, the mechanisms and factors regulating gene expression during progression through its infected red blood cell cycle (iRBC) and underlying mutually exclusive expression of antigenic variation genes involved in immune evasion are far from understood.
These scenarios might not be mutually exclusive, since the genetic variation among and within AMF isolates is likely to be a continuum between these two states, being shaped by modest rates of hyphal fusion and segregation (Bever and Wang 2005).
In this study we use index number theory to define and decompose accessibility variation into mutually exclusive transport infrastructure and land-use components ([23, 24]).
