  • (15) We have determined that somatic embryos of carrot exhibit a number of interesting and unusual properties when exposed to heat shock at different times in their development.

  • (17) Fermentative efficiency as indicated by gas production was 2.6 times greater on a carrot diet than on sweet potato.
  • (18) The results indicated that the optimal cropping pattern for the minimum-cost diets for auto consumption include traditional foods (corn, beans, broad bean, wheat, potato), non-traditional foods (carrots, broccoli, beets) and foods of animal origin (milk, eggs).

  • (20) The analysis of beta-glucuronidase activities in the transformed carrot calli showed that 240 bp of the upstream sequence, including all three TATA boxes, led to low but detectable beta-glucuronidase expression; however, the larger construct, which included the putative Sp1-binding sequence and the (TATA)n stretches, led to an approximately 6-fold higher beta-glucuronidase expression.

Garrot


Definition:

  • (n.) A stick or small wooden cylinder used for tightening a bandage, in order to compress the arteries of a limb.
  • (n.) The European golden-eye.

Example Sentences:
