Sentence examples for of continuous trait from inspiring English sources

Visualization of continuous trait evolution.

This flexible method aims to identify changes on rates of continuous trait evolution among lineages.

In general, we believe it is likely to be the case that models of continuous trait evolution should be tailored specifically for the empirical question at hand.

This method estimates posterior rates of continuous trait evolution along individual branches of the phylogeny using reversible-jump MCMC sampling of a multirate BM process, without the need for specifying hypotheses a priori about the location of rate shifts.

Furthermore, the analyses of continuous trait and binary outcomes suggested that muscle strength and CRF were linearly associated with fasting insulin, insulin resistance, and β-cell function, indicating that there is no clear threshold effect of an increase in insulin secretion or action at a particular low level of fitness or muscle strength.

Most philosophical discussion about heredity and heritability arises from the study of continuous traits.

The method is robust, can deal with an arbitrary number of alleles with arbitrary patterns of gene actions (such as additive and dominant), and allows for multiple phenotype data of various types in the joint analysis (e.g., multiple continuous traits and mixtures of continuous traits and discrete traits).

We suggest that the evolutionary dynamics of threshold traits under selection is qualitatively different from the evolution of continuous traits.

The method of 'Adaptive Dynamics' has been developed to assess the equilibrium value (evolutionarily stable strategy) of continuous traits in populations evolving under natural selection that are homogeneous across individuals apart from the values of the traits under selection [51], [52].

Linear regression was used to assess the association of continuous traits with genotype (assuming an additive model).

Multivariate BLUPs can be derived when data are a mixture of continuous traits and observed discrete traits controlled by logistic latent traits.
