What's the difference between germination and spore?

Germination


Definition:

  • (n.) The process of germinating; the beginning of vegetation or growth in a seed or plant; the first development of germs, either animal or vegetable.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) In contrast, in primordial follicles, FSH was restricted to the germ cell but was present in both the oocyte cytoplasm and germinal vesicle.
  • (2) T cells admixed in the germinal centers were overwhelmingly of the T-helper type.
  • (3) The lack of TBM prior to germinal center development and their absence in aged mice are inconsistent with the concept that TBM are required for the induction of the germinal center reaction.
  • (4) In contrast, Sca-2 did not appear to stain peripheral T lymphocytes, but recognized only a subset of B lymphocytes which could be localized by immunohistochemistry to germinal centers.
  • (5) The processes of germination and gruel preparation of germinated materials contributed to the digestibility of weaning foods prepared from cereals and legumes.
  • (6) The results presented here substantiate the hypothesis that in S. cerevisiae trehalose supplies energy during dormancy of the spores and not during the germination process.
  • (7) The response is dose dependent for LPA concentrations from 10(-8) to 10(-3) M. Incubation of oocytes in LPA does not induce germinal vesicle breakdown.
  • (8) Histologic examination showed multiple tissues derived from two or three germinal layers.
  • (9) The spore germination was synchronized by selection of the spores of the definite size and maintenance at a temperature of 0 degrees.
  • (10) GAD activity appeared in mutant spores after germination and increased to levels comparable to parent spores after 9 min of germination.
  • (11) A system for obtaining synchronous germination of mitospores is described.
  • (12) (2) Highly aneuploid and polyploid types were induced in diploid and haploid germinating conidia by chloral hydrate but not to any significant extent by gamma-rays.
  • (13) The observed signals from germinating seeds of Phaseolus aures and decaying leaves of Eucalyptus are presented to show that the signals have characteristic kinetics and intensity.
  • (14) The efficacy of combined cytostatic-surgical treatment was evaluated in a prospective study involving 70 patients with germinal tumors of the testis metastasizing into the lungs.
  • (15) Growth plate germinal cell division is directly related to the epiphyseal vascular respect.
  • (16) Germinal vesicle stage oocytes undergo perinuclear aggregation of acidic organelles during GVBD and these organelles subsequently disperse into the cell cortex as the first meiotic spindle migrates to the oocyte periphery.
  • (17) When oocytes were microinjected first with the mosxe antisense oligonucleotide, and subsequently with in vitro synthesized v-mos RNA, meiotic maturation was rescued as evidenced by germinal vesicle breakdown.
  • (18) Effects of alpha- or beta-D-glucose on the respiration of germinated spores (only germinated spores not including swollen spores and elongated spores) of Bacillus subtilis and B. megaterium were studied.
  • (19) Therefore, Leu 7+ (Leu 3+) germinal-center cells are distinct from "classic" T-helper cells of blood and lymphoid tissues.
  • (20) Either d- or l-leucine (10(-3)m) and unsaturated long-chain fatty acids such as oleic, linoleic, and arachidonic (10(-4)m) significantly stimulated macroconidia germination of Microsporum gypseum.

Spore


Definition:

  • (n.) One of the minute grains in flowerless plants, which are analogous to seeds, as serving to reproduce the species.
  • (n.) An embryo sac or embryonal vesicle in the ovules of flowering plants.
  • (n.) A minute grain or germ; a small, round or ovoid body, formed in certain organisms, and by germination giving rise to a new organism; as, the reproductive spores of bacteria, etc.
  • (n.) One of the parts formed by fission in certain Protozoa. See Spore formation, belw.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) After absorption of labeled glucose, two pools of trehalose are found in dormant spores, one of which is extractable without breaking the spores, and the other, only after the spores are disintegrated.
  • (2) The dose response initially resembled that described by Scholer (1959) in which one million spores killed the majority of mice.
  • (3) Abnormal synaptonemal complexes were seen in all 19 crosses of N. crassa and N. intermedia that were examined, including matings between standard laboratory strains, inversions, Spore killers, and strains collected from nature.
  • (4) The mutant spores are pleomorphic and differ both in shape and size from the wild-type spores.
  • (5) The results presented here substantiate the hypothesis that in S. cerevisiae trehalose supplies energy during dormancy of the spores and not during the germination process.
  • (6) The fungicidal activity of six rabbit neutrophil cationic peptides (NP) against resting (dormant) spores, preincubated (swollen) spores, and hyphae of Aspergillus fumigatus and Rhizopus oryzae was examined.
  • (7) In the electron microscope large aggregates of beta glycogen particles were seen in the cytoplasm of sporoplasm cells in mature spores.
  • (8) The spore germination was synchronized by selection of the spores of the definite size and maintenance at a temperature of 0 degrees.
  • (9) GAD activity appeared in mutant spores after germination and increased to levels comparable to parent spores after 9 min of germination.
  • (10) The Ca++-form and H+-form spores of Clostridium botulinum 33A were investigated in vivo with respect to their water sorption and heat-resistance characteristics.
  • (11) Salt concentrations slightly lower than those providing inhibition tended to extend spore outgrowth time at low temperatures.
  • (12) The AL spores and the GN spores were morphologically distinct.
  • (13) Studies demonstrated the fact that there are present within the malignant cell and in the immediate area bacterial spores arising from one of several varieties of plant bacteria.
  • (14) The stages observed were diplokaryotic cells, sporogonial plasmodia, unikaryotic sporoblasts, and spores.
  • (15) The rod-shaped organism was motile, did not form spores, and had a gram-negative wall structure.
  • (16) Numerous factors influenced its activity: method of spore production, inherent spore resistance characteristics, alkalination, storage time and storage temperature.
  • (17) The inoculum level of infected spores in nutrient broth-yeast extract-glucose medium affected the transducing efficiency of SP-10 in lysates of these cultures.
  • (18) It can be dissociated from the spores using divalent metal chelators and will reassemble on the spores in the presence of calcium.
  • (19) Stable messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) was shown to be involved in both enterotoxin synthesis and synthesis of other spore coat proteins in Clostridium perfringens.
