What's the difference between endosperm and endospermic?
Endosperm
Definition:
(n.) The albumen of a seed; -- limited by recent writers to that formed within the embryo sac.
Example Sentences:
(1) Previous attempts to purify this enzyme from the liquid endosperm of kernels of Zea mays (sweet corn) were not entirely successful owing to the lability of partially purified preparations during column chromatography.
(2) Analysis of a transposable, element-induced o2 allele, o2-m20, revealed that sectors of endosperm cells contained the nuclear-localized O2 protein, indicating excision of the transposable element.
(3) 3. beta-Sitosteryl linoleate is the major sterol ester of the scutellum and endosperm.
(4) Northern blot analyses indicated that related transcripts are present in aleurones, coleoptiles, endosperms, internodes, leaves, ovules, roots and root tips, with highest levels of expression in the aleurones and endosperms.
(5) However, unlike animal cell calmodulin, endosperm calmodulin appears to associate with kinetochore microtubules throughout mitosis, which suggests a specialized role for higher plant calmodulin in the regulation of kinetochore microtubule dynamics.
(6) The endosperm cells of the American basswood Tilia americana are favorable experimental material for investigating the birefringence of living plant spindles and anaphase movement of chromosomes.
(7) It was found that these groups represent varying amounts of transcripts that range from 2 to 20% of the total endosperm mRNA population.
(8) The enzymes are likely to function in the depolymerization of cell wall arabinoxylans during mobilization of the starchy endosperm.
(9) A 216 bp promoter fragment of the 19 kDa protein zein gene pMS1, containing the CCAAT and TATA boxes, was analysed by a variety of techniques for in vitro interactions with nuclear proteins from endosperm tissue.
(10) Serum antibodies from the maize-fed mice, immunized with either alpha-zein or maize glutelin, showed even labelling of the major maize endosperm proteins while antibodies from mice on the wheat diet showed strong labelling of the Mr 27,000 and 58,000 bands.
(11) The physical parameters tested were: test weight (TW), endosperm texture (TE), pearling index (IP), 1000 kernel wt (W 1000), infrared reflectance (NIR) and color (Ref).
(12) The objectives of this paper were: to classify 24 modern hybrids of early corn according to endosperm texture and to determine their physical and chemical properties and their relationships.
(13) Thionin concentration in mature endosperm of barley cv.
(14) Ultrastructural studies showed that gamma-zein occurs in high concentrations in the first few subaleurone cells of nonmodified endosperms, but high concentrations of gamma-zein occur in the subaleurone and central endosperm cells of modified opaque-2 mutants.
(15) Glb2 transcripts are found only in the developing embryo, and not in endosperm, seedling, or unfertilized ears.
(16) Blocks of embedded caryopses were sectioned, exposing the endosperm tissue, and stained with iodine potassium iodide (IKI) and Calcofluor White.
(17) The kinetics of [35S]methionine incorporation into the major organelle fractions of 3-day-old endosperm tissue showed that the endoplasmic reticulum was immediately labelled, whereas a lag period preceded the labelling of mitochondria and glyoxysomes.
(18) DHPS mRNAs complementary to the cDNA were detected in RNA isolated from developing maize endosperm and embryo tissues.
(19) Pretreatment of intact castor bean endosperm tissue with tunicamycin partially inhibits the cotranslational core glycosylation step and results in the accumulation of a single sized unglycosylated precursor polypeptide of relative molecular mass 59 000.
(20) With the Ph and D methods it was difficult to distinguish between corn with hard, intermediate and soft texture endosperm.
Endospermic

(a.) Relating to, accompanied by, or containing, endosperm.
