(3) In the families of flowering plants in which these organs occur, they are patterned with the sepals in the outermost whorl or whorls of the flower, with the petals next closest to the center, the stamens even closer to the center, and the carpels central.
(4) In flowers, expression was observed in sepals, anthers, and carpels, but not in petals.
(5) Mutation of this gene (defA-1) causes homeotic transformation of petals into sepals and of stamina into carpels in flowers displaying the 'globifera' phenotype, as shown by cross sections and scanning electronmicroscopy of developing flowers.

(9) Mutations in this homeotic gene cause the transformation of stamens to petals in floral whorl 3 and of carpels to another ag flower in floral whorl 4.
(10) We found that AG RNA is present in the stamen and carpel primordia but is undetectable in sepal and petal primordia throughout early wild-type flower development, consistent with the mutant phenotype.
(11) New mutations at the APETALA2 locus, ap2-2, ap2-8 and ap2-9, cause homeotic conversions in the outer two whorls: sepals to carpels (or leaves) and petals to stamens.
(12) Wild-type in vitro placental cultures also produce outgrowths identified as homologs of whole carpels.
(13) Comparative studies between two pea cultivars, one with a high incidence of seed transmission and one with none, showed that PSbMV infected the floral tissues (sepals, petals, anther and carpel) of both cultivars, but was not detected in ovules prior to fertilization.
(14) In both sets of chimeras, carpel number as well as the size of the floral meristem during carpel initiation were not determined by the genotype of cells in the outer two layers of the meristem (L1 and L2) but were determined by the genotype of cells occupying the inner layer (L3) of the meristem.
(15) In contrast to the early expression pattern, later in flower development, AG RNA is restricted to specific cell types within the stamens and carpels as cellular differentiation occurs in those organs.
(16) Mutations in the APETALA3 (AP3) gene of A. thaliana result in homeotic transformations of petals to sepals and stamens to carpels.
(17) Thickening of the transverse carpal ligaments is unusual in patients with the carpal tunnel syndrome but is a common finding in the relatively few patients with familial carpel tunnel syndrome so far described in the literature.
(18) The agamous gene therefore probably encodes a transcription factor that regulates genes determining stamen and carpel development in wild-type flowers.
(19) Interspecific chimeras were generated between tomato and L. peruvianum, which differ in number of carpels per flower.
(20) We have generated periclinal chimeras between plants that differ in the number of carpels per flower to determine the roles of cells occupying specific positions in the floral meristem in determining the number of carpels initiated.
Locule
Definition:
(n.) A little hollow; a loculus.
Example Sentences:
(1) This paper describes how pulsed ultrasound applied through a combined transducer-aspirator aids in the location and complete aspiration of pleural exudates, particularly loculated ones, which may be difficult to assess fully using clinical techniques alone.
(2) The frequent occurrence of adhesive and obliterative pericarditis with loculated effusions suggests the need for pericardiectomy rather than pericardiocentesis in the patient with rheumatoid arthritis and symptomatic pericardial involvement.
(3) This pattern, which we call "loculated fluid," consists of a well-demarcated area of hyperfluorescence that appears to represent pooling of fluorescein in a compartmentalized space anterior to the choroidal neovascular leakage.
(4) PCD is a safe and effective method for drainage of loculated empyemas as the initial procedure or after STT has failed.
(5) The spatial distribution of transcripts in the anther wall was confined to that region of the anther that surrounds the locule.
(6) We herein reported a case of delayed localized right atrial tamponade caused by loculated intrapericardial hematoma 26 days after aortic valve replacement, which was recognized immediately by transthoracic two-dimensional echocardiography.
(7) In most of the patients, by the third or fourth treatment, they were found to have developed loculated restricted areas with minimal distribution of the agents.
(8) If the pH is less than 7.30, loculation of the pleural space may occur regardless of whether the effusion fulfills the criteria for empyema.
(9) Sonography allows easy identification of pleural fluid and loculation and differentiation from pleural masses; CT is best for characterizing location and composition of pleural masses; MR is somewhat limited, but is best for imaging superior sulcus carcinoma.
(10) All four loculated effusions required drainage with a chest tube for resolution.
(11) Digital exploration of the cavity is important for eliminating any loculations and avoiding complications after the drainage procedure.
(12) This technique was found to be useful in several ways: (1) differentiation of cystic, solid, and complex masses, which is not usually possible with routine roentgenographic evaluation; (2) delineation of free fluid collections from those that are loculated or contained within masses; (3) measurement of the size of both normal and abnormal structures; and (4) confirmation of the abnormal position or absence of organs.
(13) The authors report a case of localised compression of the right atrium due to a loculated intrapericardial haematoma after open heart surgery.
