Overall, the model’s performance showed a decreasing trend, suggesting that the sequence region to the left of the ac4C site, i.e., the 5′direction, plays a crucial role in model prediction.

Both LF and HF show a decreasing trend (see Figure 6 ), with the highest values in the Slow condition and the lowest in the Fast condition.

For example, test values from a poorly maintained chemistry analyzer may show a decreasing trend because of an aging light source inadequately compensated for by calibration activity.

Some bile acid ratios showed a decreasing trend by categorized EDED of five antibiotic categories and the number of bile acid ratio showing a decreasing trend ranged from two (DCA/CA and UDCA/GUDCA for quinolones) to eight (all bile acid ratios for macrolides) ( Fig. 2 ).

This study showed that the breaking force of HM fillets, an index of hardness, may be reduced due to a decreasing trend in collagen content.

Effects of Bud Planting on Chlorophyll Content and Net Photosynthetic Rate of Potatoes During the seedling stage, both indicators of the leaves of the four tested varieties showed a decreasing trend from top bud direct planting > middle bud > tail bud > bud block direct seeding (CK), with significant differences among the treatments ( Table 5 ).

The dryness ratio (C 1 /C 1–5 , vol/vol) in the 2 °C/h run showed an initial decreasing trend and a subsequent increasing trend, acquiring a minimum value of 0.5 at 360 °C.
