Example sentences for: pseudoobscura

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

  • For example, the average length of all exons failing the K a /K s test in comparisons between D. melanogaster and D. pseudoobscura is 22.

  • In contrast, divergent species in the genus Drosophila (such as D. littoralis and D. willistoni ) show similar properties to each other and to D. pseudoobscura in terms of their utility for identifying functionally constrained coding or non-coding sequences.

  • These data show that predicted genes tend to have a higher rate of amino-acid substitution than known genes in the genus Drosophila . This trend is significant for the three most closely related pairwise comparisons ( D. melanogaster versus D. erecta, D. pseudoobscura or D. willistoni ) but non-significant in the comparison involving the most distantly related species ( D. melanogaster versus D. littoralis ). No significant differences were detected in the rates of silent site substitution between known and predicted genes in any pairwise comparison, although predicted genes in D. pseudoobscura, D. willistoni and

  • This pattern holds in the closely related species D. erecta , as well as in the more distantly related species D. pseudoobscura and D. littoralis (Table 3).

  • In an accompanying paper, C. Bergman et al . [ 65] surveyed sequence conservation in approximately 0.5 Mb of the D. melanogaster genome containing 81 genes using comparative data from four Drosophila species ( D. erecta, D. pseudoobscura, D. willistoni and D. littoralis) . Their comparison to our D. melanogaster annotations detected no genes conserved in other species that were missed in Release 3 [ 65].
