Sentence examples for situ adaptation from inspiring English sources

Third, an understanding of spatial genetics and phylogeography derived from neutral genetic markers provides a backdrop for studies of adaptive loci, helping to distinguish between biased dispersal and in situ adaptation in the study of thermal biology and dispersal ability.

Specifically, relative to species that fail to move, species that undergo range changes may experience (1) greater in situ adaptation in the novel environments encountered as a result of distributional changes or (2) reduced in situ adaptation because changes in distribution allow them to track i.e., to continue to inhabit preferred habitats.

For some researchers, migration is pitched as an adaptation response to the impacts of climate change (Black et al. 2011), while for others it is portrayed as a negative impact of climate change and a failure of in situ adaptation efforts (Felli and Castree 2012).

Rate of climate change, restraints to climate change adaptation, several limitations to migration, constraints to in situ adaptation, connectedness of populations and level of gene flow, and capacity of plasticity for adaptation are many of the constraints that lead to changes in fish physiology, but the effects of such constraints on genomic instability in fish are scantily studied.

As mentioned above, in situ adaptation of the fermenting microorganism may take place during the fed-batch assay.

Under the latter configuration, the substrate is gradually added to the medium, keeping the concentration of inhibitors at levels suitable for fermentation, and in situ adaptation of microorganisms to inhibitory compounds could improve their tolerance towards a new substrate addition.

In situ evolutionary adaptation over the next 50 100 years could lessen these predicted negative effects, but is expected to be highly unlikely in reality, as G. pyrenaicus has failed to expand into similar warm and dry areas adjacent to its current range during the previous 11,000 years of the present warm period.

This suggests that an adjustment of the photoperiodic response in northern populations to warming waters via in situ local adaptation should in principle be possible.

Examples in mammals are fewer but important because, unlike many temperate and polar bird species studied to date, most mammal species in these regions are sedentary requiring in situ seasonal adaptations such as hibernation or the storing of energy as fat or food caches to cope with long periods of resource shortage.

Several species found in the Salar de Alconcha represent unique examples to observe in situ the seasonal adaptation to a wide-range of environmental condition.

Hydrostatic pressures of bathyal depths have consistently been identified experimentally as the maximum tolerated by shallow-water and upper bathyal benthic invertebrates at in situ temperatures, and adaptation appears required for passage to deeper water in both benthic invertebrates and demersal fishes.
