Sentence examples for traits population from inspiring English sources

However, tracing back established mutualisms to their origin is challenging as no intermittent states are defined with which to measure the adaptation in terms of phenotypic traits, population size and local environment [1].

Genetic variation within plant species is determined by a number of different factors such as reproductive mode (sexual vs. clonal), breeding system (outcrossing vs. selfing), life-history traits, population history, geographical range or selective constraints (Loveless and Hamrick 1984).

In order to cross-reference QTL information in rice, researchers must pay much more attention to the designation of target traits, population size and the number of markers used in the analysis.

Second, we used multiple regression to investigate the continuous variables that explain variation of r-PTR: the morphological principal components and life-history and ecological traits (population size, longevity, clutch size and geographic range).

The information is used partially to customize the individual's risk profiles, but it is also the basis of 23andMe's research agenda, which has published research on many physical traits, population genetics, and Parkinson's disease [ 35, 108- 110].

In the absence of such currently available molecular markers linked to resistance/susceptibility traits, population genetic studies with neutral markers such as microsatellites can provide valuable information about population genetic changes linked to the emergence of drug resistance.

After this adjustment, the trait population mean was added to the observations to obtain predicted trait values.

When a farmer makes a selection decision based on a maternally affected trait, population mean performances change in response to both its direct and maternal breeding value.

Furthermore, widespread marine species often exhibit inter-population variation in life history traits and population dynamics that warrant population-specific management schemes [2], [3].

Averaged over all traits per population, mean evolvability of traits in the populations varied from 7to35%5 %.

Mean evolvability and mean heritability of a trait averaged over all populations correlated strongly, whereas the means over all traits per population did not correlate.
