  • (16) A phylogenetic tree constructed from these sequences shows that the family evolved from a common ancestral gene that came into existence at about the time of arthropod and chordate divergence.
  • (17) The paper ends with identification keys for both adult and immature stages as well as for arthropod indoor fecal traces.
  • (18) Presence of organophosphates in arthropod larvae has not been documented previously and the analysis of larvae from decomposing remains may prove a useful technique for detection of these toxicants in decomposing remains.
  • (19) In arthropods, reflex modulation can occur in the sensory receptors themselves and in neurons that discharge during locomotion.
  • (20) The inhibition assay for mite allergen was reproducible in the presence of protein concentrations of added plant, fungal, arthropod and animal extracts in excess of the protein concentrations that occur under the operational mite assay conditions.

Sternite


Definition:

  • (n.) The sternum of an arthropod somite.

Example Sentences:

  • (5) After sunset males pneumatically expand their coremata from a cavity between the abdominal sternites 7 and 8 and release their pheromone.
  • (6) Counts of setae in "aureate" (au), spontaneous autosomal recessive mutation of good penetrance and viability, show that the au gene causes a three-fold increase in setation over the normal in the visible abdominal sternites but not in the membranous wings of the tenebrionid flour beetle Tribolium castaneum.
