Example sentences for: ecdysozoa

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

  • The Coelomata hypothesis was significantly supported (≥ 97% bootstrap support, posterior probabilities = 1.0; Ecdysozoa rejected by SH test, P < 0.006; Hypothesis III rejected by SH test, P < 0.027) using either a genus in a different order, Brugia (18 proteins), or Trichinella (six proteins) (Fig.

  • The first hypothesis corresponds to the traditional grouping Coelomata and the second corresponds to Ecdysozoa [ 3 ] . For convenience, we will use these names in reference to the two hypotheses while recognizing that this study, by necessity, involves only a subset of all animal phyla.

  • The importance of knowing the branching order of these species is illustrated by the immediate and wide acceptance of the Ecdysozoa hypothesis and its use in tracing patterns of developmental evolution [ 5 6 7 10 ] . However, in the initial analysis of 18S rRNA sequences [ 3 ] , Ecdysozoa was statistically significant only when a paralinear distance method was used; three other methods did not yield significant bootstrap support.

  • Using the Shimodaira-Hasegawa (SH) test [ 17 ] , this maximum likelihood topology was significantly different from the alternative hypotheses of Ecdysozoa ( P < 0.001) and Hypothesis III ( P < 0.001).

  • Support for Coelomata was weakest with the fastest evolving proteins (which also showed compositional heterogeneity), indicating that Ecdysozoa, not Coelomata, may be the result of a rate bias, compositional bias, or other artifact.
