Tick vectors that transmit this pathogen interact with strongly and weakly competent reservoir hosts, and this variation in reservoir competence within host communities should be considered when predicting risk for infection with B. microti based on animal community composition.
Recent studies have reported major variation in diversity of competent mammalian hosts for various strains of HEV genotype 3 (19 ).
Fagereng and Sibson (2010) pointed out that variation in the ratio of competent to incompetent material causes spatial variations in shear strength, viscosity, shear strain rate, and fault slip behavior.
Although congression suggests that competence may be an on/off cellular state, it could also reflect more continuous variation in the transformability of competent cells (Maamar et al. 2007).
Variation in scores on reported culturally competent consultation behaviour might be explained by the strong relation between cultural competence and patient centred communication [ 4].
And with respect to normal observers, we have found that in fact, as things stand, there is a wide range of variation among competent color perceivers.
In any case, our history is in competent hands.
The Labour leader is regularly turning in competent – and sometimes better than competent – performances in the Commons.
Therefore, productivities of gravel pack completions may differ significantly from perforated completions in competent formation without gravel pack.
Vectors were expanded in competent Escherichia coli.
