What's the difference between gametogenesis and meiosis?

Gametogenesis


Definition:

Example Sentences:

  • (13) Fundamental animal studies by pioneers, such as Chang, Thibault and Edwards, taught us nature's axioms for gametogenesis, fertilization, development and differentiation.
  • (14) Northern blot analysis revealed that steady-state levels of the 2.4-kilobase GLE mRNA increased during growth and mitotic cell division in the vegetative cell cycle and also increased markedly during gametogenesis under nitrogen-starved conditions.
  • (15) Thus, it appears that the processes of hematopoiesis, melanogenesis, and gametogenesis in mammals involve a similar strategy to that used in other species for transmitting and receiving positional cues during development.
  • (16) In nearly all animals, the regulation of germinal cell development is postulated to be mediated through the control of gonadal somatic cell functions, associated with the creation and maintenance of an optimal milieu within the spermary of seminiferous tubule in which gametogenesis takes place.
  • (17) During gametogenesis RNA is de novo synthesized and becomes associated with the polyribosomes.
  • (18) Reproduction is a complex, stepwise series of processes that begins with gametogenesis, continues through gamete interaction, implantation, embryonic development, growth, parturition, and postnatal adaptation, and is completed with the development and sexual maturation of the newly formed organism.
  • (19) In this study, the patterns of expression of inhibin alpha-subunit mRNA during mouse gametogenesis were examined by RNA blot, cytoplasmic dot and in situ hybridization techniques.
  • (20) The relationship between allophanate lyase induction and gametogenesis is discussed.

Meiosis


Definition:

  • (n.) Diminution; a species of hyperbole, representing a thing as being less than it really is.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) To this end, a meiosis-defective mating-type mutation was used as a marker for the plus segment, by taking advantage of its suppressibility by a nonsense suppressor.
  • (2) When multiple probes were informative, the meiotic exchange points for each meiosis were located in individual families.
  • (3) This observation suggests that testosterone acts to inhibit meiosis at a site beyond the function of the puromycin-sensitive proteins or that testosterone causes a reduction in the turnover rate of these proteins.
  • (4) Commitment to meiosis occurs during the prezygotene interval at about the time when S-phase replication is completed.
  • (5) Meiosis is too complex to have arisen at once full blown and a stepwise scheme is proposed for its evolution, where each step is believed to have provided an immediate selective advantage: (1) The first step in this tentative sequence is the development of a haploidization process by means of a rapid series of mitotic non-disjunctions, turned on under conditions where haploidy is favored.
  • (6) Recently, cDNA clones encoding several bovine CKI isoforms have been sequenced that show high sequence identity to the HRR25 gene product of the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae; HRR25 is required for normal cellular growth, nuclear segregation, DNA repair, and meiosis.
  • (7) They proceed through meiosis normally, as judged by the occurrence of meiotic recombination, the production of haploid nuclei, and the formation of multinucleate cells visible after Giemsa staining.
  • (8) In continuation of the research on male human meiosis within the study of pachytene bivalents, results from the analysis of 125 cells are presented.
  • (9) The absence of these mRNAs in mitosis and their disappearance at 4 hr and later in meiosis suggest that the rec7 and rec8 gene products may be involved primarily in the early steps of meiotic recombination in S. pombe.
  • (10) This trisomy arose through aberrant segregation of translocation chromosome during meiosis in the patient's mother, who is a balanced heterozygote for a complex translocation involving chromosomes 9, 21 and 22.
  • (11) Chemicals were injected into mice at the MI (meiosis I) stage or 3 hours before the MI stage in order to examine their toxicity.
  • (12) In the immunogold staining assay a post-fixation and nuclear staining procedure was developed which allowed identification of isolated germ cells, revealing clearly, for all seven MAbs, that the determinants were expressed on germ cells but not on somatic cells and, for WCS 7, 11 and 12 only, that the determinants first appeared on small spermatogonia prior to meiosis.
  • (13) A 'small' CG-free area of the cortex, with prominent cytoplasmic protrusions, appeared twice during the progression of meiosis.
  • (14) An attractive explanation for these results is that long tandem arrays of simple repeated sequences are generated at high frequency throughout the genome and that they are retained for a longer time on the Y chromosome due to the absence of homologous pairing at meiosis.
  • (15) Expression of one of the three genes was found to be limited to a single cell type during the 5-6 day period from late meiosis to immature pollen formation.
  • (16) Analysis of RNA from different developmental stages and from enriched populations of spermatogenic cells revealed that this gene is expressed during the prophase stage of meiosis.
  • (17) In fission yeast the ability to undergo meiosis and sporulation is conferred by the matP+ and matM+ genes of the mating-type locus.
  • (18) The binding of in vivo labeled RNA to the corresponding DNAs increased 3- to 12-fold at the time of meiosis I, in parallel with the accumulation of the SPR transcripts.
