In contrast, a fixed effects meta-analysis model would assume that all studies share a common population effect (Borenstein et al. 2009), which is indeed hard to justify as our sample includes studies from different countries and time periods.4 Obviously, there might not be a single true effect underlying all studies in the sample.
Svalbard and Franz Joseph Land share a common population of 3,000 polar bears, with Kong Karls Land being the most important breeding ground.
Analysis using the modified eBURST algorithm suggests that muscle fibroblasts and fat preadipocytes are clonally related (mouse 1 shown in Figure 2a, mouse 2 in Additional file 8: Figure S1), in agreement with the above findings indicating that muscle fibroblasts and preadipocytes share a common population of progenitor cells.
If the t-values from two contrasts were positively correlated across voxels, then the two contrasts were inferred to share common sub-populations of neurons within the region.
The use of a phased HapMap dataset allowed us to simulate individuals that share common founding populations.
Due to incomplete pedigree records, it was impossible to determine if affected sheep from the Texel breeding population share common ancestors and trace back to a single common founder.
On the other hand, if the populations were recently separated, there would insufficient time for genetic drift to have occurred in each small fragmented population, and most populations would share common haplotypes [ 87].
Passage 1 A recent study comparing the DNA of Native Americans and central Siberians has established that the two populations share common ancestors.
For example, there is much debate and literature out there on the various merits of the biological species concept (reproductive isolation) vs. the phylogenetic species concept (monophyly: populations share common ancestor) vs. morphospecies concept (morphological distinctiveness).
As a consequence, both national immigration policies and global health strategies for the control of tuberculosis share common interest in mobile populations moving from high-to-low prevalence regions.
