How can you use “convergent” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Rather than multiple gene duplication events or convergent evolution, this suggests horizontal gene transfer (HGT) of arsC genes.
The predicted strong positive correlations between PPS and KFS (r = .88, p = .01) support construct (convergent) validity.
For phylogenetic analysis, the fact that some amino acids (such as arginine) change rapidly and predictably with GC content slightly undermines the idea that amino-acid sequences are more stable than nucleotide sequences: pairs of species with convergent GC contents might also evolve convergent protein sequences, especially at functionally unconstrained positions.
The finding of a QuartOP in a mitochondrial genome quartet that supports a non-traditional grouping could either reflect a rare recombination event, selection pressures that led to convergent evolution in two lineages, or a chance event - if one looks at enough samples one will find some that (considered by themselves) appear significant.
Each of the three domains of life has explored a wide range of genome GC contents, and organisms at the extremes of the range but with different evolutionary histories may share more convergent amino-acid substitutions than currently recognized.
