The phylogenetic analysis (Figure 4) revealed a preferential grouping with zebrafish Figla, and a closer evolutionary relatedness to other teleosts' proteins, thus confirming our isolate as a partial sequence of the Squalius Figla ortholog.
Gene expression pattern reveals five tissue-preferential groups and the total genes in each group is shown in parenthesis.
The remaining 28 genes fell into the root-preferential group as their corresponding root/shoot expression ratios were between 3 and 10 (Fig. 1, Table 1).
All four of the shoot-related genes were grouped into the shoot-preferential group with root/shoot expression ratios ranged between −10 and −3 (Fig. 1, Table 1, Supplementary Table S2).
The presence of N2 and N3 in the C5 and C6 spinal segments suggests a preferential input of group II and group III afferents into these specific spinal segments.
The new case will provide an early test of the Bush administration's willingness to defend federal policies on preferential treatment for groups that have suffered racial or sexual discrimination.
Trial 2 (sociability): a stimulus mouse was introduced in one of the stimulus cages, while a novel object (a plastic grey cylinder, 6 cm in diameter, 2 cm high) was introduced in the opposite cage (sides were counterbalanced within experimental groups); preferential exploration of the social versus non-social novel stimuli was measured.
Mr. Reed, who once said he spent over $1 million in the legal effort, finally won a federal court decision in 2011 giving him, as the sole surviving member of the original group, preferential rights to the Platters name.
In this study we aim to deepen our understanding of gender homophily and its impact on crucial aspects including the way in which users join a social networking service, the establishment of preferential relationships and grouping patterns.
When individuals with underlying medical conditions were not prioritized and an age group-based approach was used, preferential vaccination of age groups at increased risk of severe outcomes following infection generally resulted in decreased mortality compared to targeting vaccine to age groups with higher transmission, at a cost of higher population-level attack rates.
Kennedy consistently writes in court opinions that the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment is a constitutional guarantee for individual liberty, and that applying preferential treatment to certain groups denies individuals in other groups the same liberties.
