Across all four sports, the correlation function is close or very close to zero for all values of n (Figure 2 insets), in excellent agreement with the Poisson process, which predicts C ( n ) = 0 for all n > 0, representing no correlation in the timing of events (a result also found by [10] in basketball).
In case of the resistant cultivar, both chitinase and beta 1 3 glucanases maintained steady state levels throughout the fungal penetration process, which predicted a different function of these enzymes in disease responses in an incompatible host-pathogen encounter.
The concept evolutionary entropy is the cornerstone of directionality theory, an analytic model of the evolutionary process which predicts changes in the genotypic and phenotypic composition of populations under various ecological constraints.
However, for random sampling this dynamic range is expected to increase linearly with increasing depth of coverage, N. In addition, the variability from the ideal is well described by a simple Poisson sampling model for the shotgun sequencing process which predicts that the hit count CV should decrease with increasing hit number, N, as.
However, a variety of bioinformatic processes have been developed which predict potential binding sites within the sequence of gene 3' UTRs in an effort to identify genes regulated by miRNAs.
This process uses self-learning algorithms which predict unique signatures of the genetic spectrum that indicate distinct clusters of material (Boguski and McIntosh, 2003; Chicurel, 2002b).
On the other hand, larger neurons are expected to cost more energy, according to an estimate of the distribution of the energy budget among the several energy-consuming processes within a neuron which predicted that, while nearly 80% of a neuron's energy budget go toward glutamate-related neurotransmission, 13% are used to maintain the resting potential of the cell membrane [23].
Studies of natural geological and archaeological systems as analogues to long-term processes, which are predicted to occur within a radioactive waste repository environment, have become increasingly popular over the last 10 years or so, to the extent that such studies form an integral part of many national programmes for radioactive waste disposal.
Among the genes repressed by HMF, a large number of genes are involved in ribosome biogenesis and protein translation processes, which were predicted to be regulated by transcription factor genes RAP1 and FHL1 (Additional file 3C).
