He also believed that biography should allow the reader to partake of the "joys and calamities" — and especially the "mistakes and miscarriages" — of another person of vastly different station and circumstance, via the power of identification.
However, for mtDNA to be used as a genetic haplotype marker, additional polymorphic loci are required to increase the discrimination power of identification.
Individuals for QTL mapping were selected preferably from the tails of the emergence time distribution in order to increase the power of identification QTLs for ToE, a procedure known as selective genotyping [ 47].
Consequent to sample mix-ups in a research setting, erroneous data and sample matching may result in a loss of power for identification of causal variants [ 3].
PowerAtlas, a power and sample size estimation tool for microarray study, was adopted to investigate impact of aberrant arrays on statistical power for identification of differentially expressed genes (Page et al., 2006).
Although these comparisons need to be treated with caution, due to the fact that some of the markers were deliberately chosen to provide the greatest possible diagnostic power for identification of whales 1 and 2, these data concord with the pattern of relatedness among these species/sub-species from previous studies of minke whales using mtDNA [2], [3], [16], [17].
PPI topological features alone have relatively strong predictive power for identification of cancer genes.
In such a case, this difference can be used to increase the statistical power for identification of significant motifs.
In the Dutch study, however, only familial cases were included and the mean age in both carriers and non-carriers was 45 years, which was much lower than in breast cancer patients in general, resulting in decreased power for identification of differences in age at onset.
Joint (meta) analysis of data from comparable GWA studies may increase the power of gene identification when individual GWA studies are underpowered.
