The evolutionary tree is drawn to scale,
with branch lengths in units representing the number of amino acids substituted per site.
Homoplasy due to convergence is thought to be positively correlated
with branch length [i.e., long branch attraction (70)-RSB-.
Although this analysis is limited to specific taxa, it suggests higher ILS near the deepest branches of Afroaves involving the owl, consistent
with the branch length, gene tree, and indel findings.
Not exact matches
The only known source of incongruence that is inversely correlated
with internal
branch length is hemiplasy (differential inheritance of polymorphic alleles)(64, 71).
Because hemiplasy is a hallmark of ILS and 87 % of the variation in indel incongruence is explained by
branch length, our indel findings suggest high levels of ILS during the basal radiation of Neoaves,
with comparable support for the ExaML or MP - EST * versions of the TENT.
Most
branches with the highest levels of indel incongruence belonged to the shortest and deepest ones that made local shifts in analyses,
with the two
branches joining mousebirds and owls exhibiting the highest indel incongruence and the shortest internal
branch lengths in the ExaML TENT (Fig. 3A and fig.
Consistent
with these findings, indel incongruence was inversely correlated
with internal
branch length, and
branch length explained 87 % (r2) of the variation in the percentage of nonhomoplasious indels defining each
branch (Fig. 3E).
The
branch lengths of the high - variance exon tree showed a strong positive correlation
with GC content and a negative correlation
with the average body mass of species, seen at a much lesser magnitude in the low - variance exon tree (Fig. 6, A to D).

Similar to GDF5 treatment, we found that transfection
with the miR - 181a inhibitor led to significant increases in neurite
length (Figure 3G, I)(P < 0.001) and neurite
branching (Figure 3H, I)(P < 0.001) compared
with the controls.

As is typical of other grains, pulse starches are composed of amylose, a linear α -1,4-linked glucan
with few
branches in the molecular weight range of 105 — 106, and amylopectin, a highly
branched and much larger molecule (molecular weight 107 — 109) composed of α -1,4-linked glycosyl units of varying
lengths connected by α - 1,6
branch points.
A large, striking pendant

The Blu - ray also includes an interactive Countdown to Christmas advent calendar and a feature -
length branching feature about the making of the film
with a picture - in - picture viewing mode along
with the film.
Although the video features could've been
branched into one full
length documentary (and the galleries given some thumbnails for easier access), this DVD presents a great film
with top notch picture and audio and a packed roster of supplements.
So it makes sense that «Hello Walls,» which fills Gladstone Gallery's two
branches in Chelsea, opens
with another of Bochner's early works: the white - on - black text piece Forgetting Is the Only Continuum, originally from 1969, in which the title words appear scrawled in white on a black stripe that runs nearly the
length of the 24th Street gallery's largest room.
The Company has an access across the
length and breadth of the nation through the
branches of both IDBI Bank and Federal Bank along
