Over time, though, the concerted emphasis on marriage and the military generated increasingly potent political imagery: elderly gay men pleading for recognition of their decades-long relationships, lesbian ex-officers testifying with military terseness.
(Though some detected a concerted disinformation campaign, it's more likely that the jumbled accounts were the product of limited, if poorly managed, facts from the ground; the SEAL team had not yet landed back in the United States).
Our results suggest that the high level of sequence conservation in this multigene family is likely maintained through a combination of strong purifying selection and mechanisms of concerted evolution, though further analysis will be required to determine the relative contribution of each process.
Glucose uptake and utilization are increased in ATGL cardiac muscle together with attenuated isoprenaline-stimulated FA mobilization in white adipose tissue (Haemmerle et al., 2006), even though gene expression studies suggest concerted down-regulation of oxidative pathways required for energy production from glucose in ATGL-deficient mice (Pinent et al., 2008).
Phylogenetic relationships suggest that these additional opsin duplication events occurred independently in the lineages leading to these two fishes [ 17], though this pattern may also reflect concerted evolution, resulting in homogenized gene sequences within species [ 18].
The question remains as to why Haggerty et al., 2009 do not recover a concerted evolution type pattern, even though they consider taxa not so distantly related to Shewanella and with similar 16S rRNA copy numbers.
Facebook also ruffled feathers when it was accused of suppressing conservative trends in its Trending Topics, though the company's investigation found no evidence of concerted censorship.
Moot denies knowing about any concerted plan by his followers to influence the poll, though TIME.com's technical team did detect and extinguish several attempts to hack the vote.
Some see it as an embattled Russian president cocking a snook at the West, though in fairness tensions with Moscow over Ukraine have not damaged concerted efforts to make progress with Iran around the negotiating table.
