Sentence examples for retard the evolution of from inspiring English sources

Thus if any fitness costs are associated with SP15 resistance, they are unlikely to be of sufficient magnitude to retard the evolution of resistance.

It was postulated that partial resistance would retard the evolution of pathogens and thus increase the durability of resistance [ 24, 61].

The reference crop for 'productivity' was cotton that was not sprayed for Helicoverpa (hereafter 'unsprayed'), and modeling indicated that this refuge set at 10% of the area of the Bt crop should be adequate to retard the evolution of resistance.

The fitness costs of resistance to phages adding to those of antibiotic resistance may cause some antibiotic-resistant genotypes to grow very slowly, and thus retard the evolution of antibiotic resistance.

A commonly-held belief is that injection of impurities along with CO2 retards the evolution of convective dissolution, thereby, negatively impacting solubility trapping of CO2.

It also means we are fragmenting our development efforts, potentially retarding the evolution of our libraries and toolkits.

Cycling pesticides has been proposed as a means of retarding the evolution of resistance, but its efficacy has rarely been empirically tested.

In theory, a two-gene transgenic crop is predicted to be significantly more robust than a single-gene transgenic crop in retarding the evolution of resistance because the rare insect that is resistant to one toxin will be killed by the second (Roush 1998; Zhao et al. 2005).

While substantial research has validated the efficacy of the noctuid moth 'attracticide' (reviewed in Gregg et al. 2010), further work is necessary to establish if it will assist in retarding the evolution of resistance and be assigned a role in resistance management.

'To some extent the evolution of the PC has been retarded I think in the last few years so as we look forward in terms of where the PC has to continue to grow…it has to get more and more consumer friendly.' Intel plans to solve the problem with Ultrabooks.

It is hypothesized that the evolution of plant pathogens in agricultural ecosystems can be retarded by increasing genetic diversity of the host populations, by using partial resistance encoded by several genes and by avoiding multi-cropping systems.
