What's the difference between carpophore and stamen?
Carpophore
Definition:
(n.) A slender prolongation of the receptacle as an axis between the carpels, as in Geranium and many umbelliferous plants.
Example Sentences:
(1) Analyses of various parts of carpophores of B. edulis, Suillus luteus and Amanita muscaria indicate that in all three species the stalk contains less selenium than the fleshy part of the cap.
(2) A 31-year old woman was admitted to hospital 10 days after she had deliberately ingested 2 raw carpophores of the mushroom Cortinarius orellanus.
(3) davidiana, carpophores of Poria cocos and root bark of Paeonia suffruticosa.
(4) The nuclear RNA synthesizing activities obtained from both carpophores and cultures of non-accumulating organisms displayed significant sensitivities to alpha-amanitin, whereas those obtained from accumulating organisms displayed remarkable resistance to alpha-amanitin.
(5) A lectin (LDL) has been isolated from carpophores of the edible mushroom, Lactarius deliciosus, using a combination of affinity chromatography on stromas of group O erythrocytes embedded in polyacrylamide gel and hydroxylapatite, and gel filtration chromatography.
(6) Amanita hygroscopica (culture, derived from amanitin-accumulating carpophore) and A. suballiacea (carpophore), and from the non-accumulating species A. solitaria (culture) and A. brunnescens (carpophore) were tested for their sensitivities to alpha-amanitin inhibition.
(7) The observed relationship between levels of amanitins in carpophores and resistance of the RNA synthesizing activities to inhibition by alpha-amanitin supports the hypothesis that amanitins may function as regulators of mRNA transcription in Amanita species.
(8) Eighteen additional species of Gymnopilus were screened by a method capable of detecting 0.0004% psilocybin in dried carpophores.
(9) Amatoxins are cyclic peptides which can be purified from the carpophores of various mushroom species.
Stamen
Definition:
(n.) A thread; especially, a warp thread.
(n.) The male organ of flowers for secreting and furnishing the pollen or fecundating dust. It consists of the anther and filament.
Example Sentences:
(1) Differential screening of a tomato cDNA library produced from pre-anthesis stamens resulted in the isolation of 25 cDNA clones that hybridized to probes made from stamen RNA and showed no hybridization to probes made from RNA of vegetative organs.
(2) In agamous-1, stamens to petals; in apetala2-1, sepals to leaves and petals to staminoid petals; in apetala3-1, petals to sepals and stamens to carpels; in pistillata-1, petals to sepals.
(3) Cells from immature stamen hairs of the spiderwort plant Tradescantia virginiana cv.
(4) Normal stamens exhibited the synthesis of many polypeptides not found in the mutant, from microspore mother cell to the preanthesis stages.
(5) 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.
(6) The normally predictable duration of metaphase in stamen hair cells from the spiderwort, Tradescantia virginiana, is shortened significantly by treatment during prometaphase with either ruthenium red or Bay K-8644.
(7) Anaphase in dividing guard mother cells of Allium cepa and stamen hair cells of Tradescantia virginiana consists almost entirely of chromosome-to-pole motion, or anaphase A.
(8) A model is presented which proposes both combinatorial and cross-regulatory interactions between the DEFA and GLO genes during petal and stamen organogenesis in the second and third whorls of the flower.
(9) In a search for putative target genes of deficiens, several stamen- and petal-specific genes were cloned that are expressed in wild type but not in the deficiensglobifera mutant.
(10) Petals develop in the third floral whorl rather than the normal stamens, and the cells that would normally develop into the fourth whorl gynoecium behave as if they constituted an ag flower primordium.
(11) Another beta-tubulin isotype, beta 4, appears in marked abundance in immature and mature stamens.
(12) Squa transcriptional activity persists through later stages of floral morphogenesis, with the exception of stamen differentiation.
(13) In that section of the bay visibly contaminated by the creek effluent, increases in stamen hair mutants, micronuclei, and chromosome aberrations were measured.
(14) Stamen hair cells from the spiderwort plant, Tradescantia virginiana, exhibit remarkably predictable metaphase transit times, making them uniquely suitable for temporal studies on mitotic regulation.
(15) Another experimental disruption of the relationship, accomplished by making minute wounds in the PPB site of mitotic cells in Tradescantia stamen hairs, is described.
(16) Quite simply, the bee gets covered in pollen, from the male part of the flower (the stamen), and deposit the grains on the female part (the stigma) of the next flower that they visit.
(17) The normal and mutant stamens had some common proteins, but certain proteins were either present or more enriched in one genotype than in the other.
(18) We describe a locus, SUPERMAN, mutations in which result in extra stamens developing at the expense of the central carpels in the Arabidopsis thaliana flower.
(19) In order to test whether this influences the initial, linear component in the dose-effect relations, a comparison was made between dose-response curves for pink somatic mutations in Tradescantia clone 02 stamen hairs following X and gamma irradiations.
(20) During stage 6, petal primordia grow slowly, whereas stamen primordia enlarge more rapidly.
