Example sentences for: rate-constancy

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

  • The rate-constancy prediction holds that the evolutionary rates along these phylogenetic branches should be correlated.

  • Thus, the vast majority of proteins in each analyzed group of species seem to evolve in accord with the rate-constancy prediction, suggesting that the functional constraints among orthologous proteins remain largely unchanged.

  • Consistent with the rate-constancy prediction, given a phylogenetic tree topology, the ratio of evolutionary distances along different branches of the tree should be approximately constant for all proteins from an analyzed set of species.

  • This rate-constancy prediction is tested here by studying the relative rates of protein evolution in a simple phylogenetic context.

  • The present results show that the mode of evolution of the vast majority of the analyzed proteins from all three domains of life - bacteria, archaea and eukaryotes is compatible with the rate-constancy prediction of molecular evolution.
