For this article it suffices to argue that the environment is likely to harbour parasitoids, and predators alike, that are naive with respect to subtle qualitative differences in HIPV (i.e. signal quality) and the number of herbivores on the plant (i.e. the reward).
Therefore, further studies which emphasise the subtle qualitative differences between the AI-induced and normal testes are required in order to justify the disparity seen by the present study in the levels of Foxl2 between these two categories of gonads.
Finally, possible harms require a direct yet potentially subtle and qualitative evaluation [ 51, 66, 102] since efforts to prevent harmful events can inadvertently produce them [ 33, 63].
Heterogeneity analyses of both image types can simultaneously reveal subtle quantitative and qualitative features (gradients, boundaries, random or patchy patterns at successive scales) linked to ecological processes.
It is likely that subtle quantitative and/or qualitative alterations in the immune cell content of the PG WAT found in T-bet −/− mice affect the balance of these and other soluble mediators that have a positive impact on insulin sensitivity.
At first, this may seem a subtle issue (as most qualitative information generated in laboratories is practically generated and interpreted in Boolean terms; e.g., protein x AND y activate protein z), however, the Boolean truth tables (and expressions) get more complex as the size of the model increases.
We also used LUSO to address a third, more qualitative and subtle, long-term farming-system-scale question: how do the optimal profit and the optimal land-use sequence change as the amount of weed seed returned to the seedbank is reduced?
Different living populations of C. niloticus may ultimately be distinguishable osteologically, but the differences will be subtle and most apparent from morphometric rather than qualitative approaches.
In addition, drugs targeting the T cell activation process may have subtle effects which can be distinguished only through qualitative observation of the dynamic "immunological synapse".
The multi-state qualitative models supported by FlexFlux allow subtle analyses with variables containing more than two possible states, in particular reaction fluxes.
However, even with apparent qualitative similarity in observed 2D patterns subtle quantitative differences, not apparent by western blot or silver staining analysis, might exist between corresponding spots from different sources, reflecting stochiometric variation of unmodified and modified S100A4.
