Plots show the chromosomal and geographic signatures of selection under four different selective processes.
We outline how disturbance influences genetic diversity through changes in both selective processes and demographically driven, selectively neutral processes.
Clear evidence of purifying selection in coding sequences indicates that selective processes are at play in this genomic region and population, which suggests that observed structural variations have been spared by selective processes and do not significantly affect fitness.
A signature of enhanced selection in sympatry vs. allopatry could be due to selective processes or demographic processes (e.g. recent population growth).
Differences between D4 and D0 pinpoint selective processes because nonsynonymous changes are much more deeply imprinted by natural selection than synonymous ones.
Since 1996, in fact, Brazilian universities have been authorized to use any of various "selective processes" in admitting students, and the government itself has been promoting a standardized nationwide exam for high school students as an alternative.
But sometimes such activity may be an incidental by-product of other selective processes.
At one end are purely natural selective processes that give us, for instance, the internal organs and the autonomic processes that regulate our bodies.
Were this going on we couldn't explain the match between frequencies observed in different woods and the selective processes occurring in the adult stage.
Instead they need routines, i.e., "...an executable capability for repeated performance in some context that been learned by an organization in response to selective processes" (p. 683) [10].
The findings conclude that countries that excel in recruiting top talent have highly selective processes and training programs that more closely resemble the rigor of law and medicine.
