Our analyses demonstrated that the principal variations were specifically located in the occipital, supra-ocular, and rostral regions, as well as in the prootic-squamosal length, giving rise to the two distinct morpho-shapes.
Unlike PCA which looks for major metabolic variations in the data, PLS-DA and OPLS-DA look for metabolic variations that are specifically related to the study classes.
Variations in mtDNA are specifically associated with disease phenotypes with specific sequence alterations in mitochondrial components that may generate measurable effects on bioenergetic and other functional aspects of the organelle, such as a decrease in respiratory function [153].
Amongst the numerous and diverse sources of genetic variation, Bantu-speakers are specifically known to display levels of Khoe-San admixture [ 2, 34, 35].
These variations are depicted specifically in Fig. 6.
Thus, genetic variations that were specifically shared among individuals in the freshwater (and marine) group were likely due to parallel selection.
Macaques are specifically used in this study because they are characterized by great biodiversity and variation.
Darwin emphasized the evolutionary importance of genuinely random, undirected variation whereas the Lamarckian modality of evolution is centered at directed variation that is specifically caused by environmental factors.
Although total fetuses and litters with variations were not specifically reported, the types and incidence of fetuses with variations were primarily reduced ossification and there was no indication of a dose-related change.
This option represents a stringent search for tandem repeat variation as we were specifically interested in investigating repeat variations consisting of multiples of the repeat unit and not other types of tandem repeat variations.
