E. coli has been, as with so many other phenomena, a model in which to study bacterial persistence, and it seems likely that this capacity to enter a dormant state plays a significant role in surviving the considerable fluctuations it encounters in its external environment.
Baboons mate throughout the year and experience considerable fluctuation in food availability within and across years.
The combined wildlife populations show considerable fluctuation in parks and adjoining areas, with numbers rising in the late 1970s, falling through to the mid-1980s, rising again more slowly in the late 1980s and falling steeply in the 1990s.
Similarly, studies from developed countries have shown a considerable fluctuation in the average cost of TB treatment [ 6, 15].
Studies from both developed and developing countries have demonstrated a considerable fluctuation in the average cost of TB treatment.
This is because there can be considerable fluctuation between the KD values measured with compound from a single bead in the high-throughput assay between identical molecules (Table S3, Supporting Information).
An individual spacer distance -wise split up revealed considerable fluctuation in the likelihoods for each spacer length, and despite no clear pattern emerging over all functions (A 3), suggested potential spacer length specific gene regulation.
Substantial variation between the different units, but also a considerable fluctuation within each single instrument (intra-instrument variation), can be observed over time in Figure 2.
The quantification of gene gain and loss suggests that both have been extensive in the evolutionary history of the P. syringae species complex and that the genomes of these pathovars may undergo considerable fluctuation even over relatively short evolutionary time periods.
All four hybrid capture methods, including three solution phase methods (home made, Flexelect, SureSelect) and one solid phase method (NimbleGen) show considerable fluctuation in coverage over the targeted region of interest.
