What is "canalizing"

Usage examples of "canalizing".

The data is very good that genes are regulated by canalizing functions.

It could be that among the known genes that are published, it’s predominantly the case that they are governed by canalizing functions because such genes have phenotypic effects that are easy to find, and there’s lot of things that are noncanalizing functions, but you just can’t find them easily, genetically.

The implication is that natural selection has tuned the fractions of genes governed by canalizing functions such that cells are in the ordered regime.

The computing power gets to be large because if I want to look for a single input, like a canalizing input, the canalizing input is really easy to tell because if gene A is on, then gene C is on no matter what.

Daddy, although a historian, is devoted to the latest, most progressive theories of child psychology and applies them by canalizing the cortex through pain association whenever he really wants to ensure that a lesson will not be forgotten.
