Sentence examples for small-scale population from inspiring English sources

Better understanding of small-scale population structure will require analysis of highly variable nuclear markers like microsatellites.

The IUCN acknowledges that this rating stems from the results of a few small-scale population surveys, whose mathematical extrapolations suggest that the species has experienced a rapid decline in population since the 1970s, and that wider population surveys are needed to produce more accurate estimates.

Hauer and his colleagues combined environmental data, such as elevations and flood risks for specific locations, with small-scale population projections for U.S. coastal states and projected sea-level rise from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

In this study, we use microsatellite genetic markers to evaluate both large- and small-scale population genetic differentiation and connectivity within and among island and mainland populations of E. flavipes throughout the TS/NPA.

According to the baseline survey, 60% of the men were smokers, more than 30% of the population had insufficient fruit and vegetable intake and more than 30% of the population were physically inactive, this is why a small-scale population intervention approach was chosen, guided both by the findings in the quantitative and the qualitative study.

Our small-scale population genetic comparison between populations from the clean site in Roggebotzand and the polluted one in Plombières reflected a positive sign of balancing selection at Plombières, because of the significant positive Fu and Li's D values, higher nucleotide diversity per site, and higher haplotype diversity in the latter population.

Aside from climatic changes that have caused the gradual drift of populations (for example the desertification of the Middle East, and the formation of land bridges during glacial periods), extreme weather events have caused smaller scale population movements and intruded directly in historical events.

However, local adaptation, once thought to be minimal due to long distance gene flow among marine populations, has since been reconsidered in light of small scale population structure in multiple coral species [7].

Microsatellite markers remain an informative and cost-effective tool for small scale population genetic studies.

This paradox is discussed in light of stochastic recruitment and small scale population structures found in other species of coral.

Further studies on species interactions in this system however necessitates a better understanding also on the small scale population differentiation, to identify strengths of direct and indirect species interactions and their ecological and evolutionary consequences.
