Sentence examples for populations adapt from inspiring English sources

It has been consistently observed that when challenged with a new environment, viral populations adapt following hyperbolic-like kinetics: adaptation is initially very rapid, but then slows down as fitness reaches an asymptotic value.

Specifically, when populations adapt from standing genetic variation only, the potential for adaptation increases as the environment changes faster.

But Judith Rodin, president of the Rockefeller Foundation, said in an interview that helping vulnerable populations adapt to a changing climate must be a high priority.

But for natural selection to help populations adapt to the Western diet, we'd have to be prepared to let those whom it sickens die.

An enduring puzzle in evolutionary biology is to understand how individuals and populations adapt to fluctuating environments.

Comparative genomic analysis of laboratory, wild and domesticated yeast populations is generating insights into how new species form and how populations adapt to their environments.

However, populations adapting to spatially variable environments often experience gene flow that counteracts adaptive divergence.

We found no significant differences in exponential growth rate between populations adapted to β-lactam antibiotics (DOR, CEF) and CIP- or GEN-adapted populations (Fig. S4).

We investigate how Holocene forager populations adapted to this variation in a linear sand dune desert of arid South Australia.

The three of us were initially talking about a study on how populations adapted to climate change, with migration being an obvious one.

This was evident in triplicate independent populations of primary embryonic fibroblasts (PEFs, defined here as passage 5 or earlier), and remained unchanged in all derived populations adapted to long-term growth in culture (referred to as mouse embryonic fibroblasts, MEFs).
