Sentence examples for the evolutionary curve from inspiring English sources

One part of the solution lies in lessons from micro lending, which is further up the evolutionary curve, say development experts.

"It turns out that this gene is present in all species, but somewhere along the evolutionary curve it became silent in old-world primates and humans," says Elliot Leibowitz, chief executive of BioTransplant.

Interestingly, the changes for other two parameters (C4 and K sC) also do not significantly affect the system, and the observed evolutionary curves with different parameter values are almost totally overlapped with each other.

Fond of blending genres (once, unforgettably and perhaps unforgivably, engineering a marriage between heavy metal and bossa nova), he was often just far enough ahead of pop music's evolutionary curve to have missed the big payoff.

The other was highly conserved in humans and specific species where the evolutionary conservation curve exhibited a sigmoid pattern (see motifs B and C in Additional file 3A).

It was assumed above that the effect of position i on the logarithm of specific activity is proportional to i. Thus, the distribution of effect sizes among sites can be approximated by a uniform distribution for sufficiently small effect size, as illustrated in figure 5. Also shown in the figure are curves relating the evolutionary rate at a site to its effect on specific activity.

Therefore in a coevolutionary model it is likely that the shapes of host-parasite epistasis curves will determine the evolutionary potential of antagonists and hence the dynamics of coevolution.

More simply, the evolutionary pattern can be inferred from the shape of the curve.

For very high expression levels (corresponding to narrow curves), the continuous approximation breaks down and the evolutionary rate falls rapidly as expression level increases.

Qualitatively, the evolutionary changes predicted by the model were independent of the steepness a of the selectivity curve.

The blue curve shows the distribution of epitopes per site for all sites in NP, while the red curve shows the distribution of epitopes per site for the sites in NP that substituted along the evolutionary trajectory.
