Fatigue life tests under varying stress levels have revealed deviations from the linear Palmgren Miner (PM) rule.
The analysis of interval counts, however, also revealed deviations from this pattern that could be attributed to seasonal fluctuations in microclimatic conditions: leaf mortality risk rose distinctly during drought periods but declined during cooler periods with less sunshine.
A global test for concordance with HWE revealed deviations from HWE in locus Cma10EPA, Cma11EPA and SP251 (Table 2).
Fisher's exact test revealed deviations from HWE after Bonferroni correction at two loci for all populations tested, with an excess of homozygotes for the loci RmBra25, RmBra27, and RmBra50 (P = 0.019).
The fact that only a minority of surveyed loci revealed deviations from HWE indicates that the investigated population overall is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, and that deviations at individual loci are most likely due to locus-specific effects, and not due to biological factors such as inbreeding or genetic drift, which would affect all loci.
Descriptive tests (skewness, kurtosis), histograms, and normal probability plots revealed deviations from a normal distribution for DBPs in blood and water [see Supplemental Material, Figures 2 and 3 (http://dx.doi.org/10.1289/ehp.1104347)]; therefore, data were log10 transformed for the regression models and analysis of variance (ANOVA).
The quantile-quantile plot of observed P-values vs. the expected null distribution did not reveal deviation from the null, apart from 12 SNP outliers at the tail of the distribution exhibiting the most significant P-values, which all lie within three regions of the genome on chromosomes 11, 5, and 1.
The inhomogeneous bubble structure reveals deviations from the expected homogeneous Sanchez Lacombe equation of state, consistent with some experimental results.
This system will allow the study of the electron distribution function at low energies to reveal deviations from the Maxwellian distribution.
