Example Sentences:
(1) However, the average age at onset of lymphoma varied considerably among the different AKXD strains, suggesting that they have segregated several loci that affect lymphoma susceptibility.
(2) Both types of oral cleft, cleft palate (CP) and cleft lip with or without CP (CLP), segregate in these families together with lower lip pits or fistulae in an autosomal dominant mode with high penetrance estimated to be K = .89 and .99 by different methods.
(3) Reciprocal translocations involving the short arm of acrocentric chromosomes can segregate to produce partial duplications without associated deletions.
(4) Cellular responses in vitro to H-2D region histocompatibility antigens were demonstrated to be under the genetic control of two or three (P = 0.013) independently segregating loci.
(5) Recombination between markers was observed in matings between phage beta and the heteroimmune corynebacteriophages gamma and L. In such matings between heteroimmune phages the c markers of phages beta and gamma failed to segregate from the imm markers which determine the specificity of lysogenic immunity in these phages.
(6) For analytical purposes, irradiated dogs were segregated into groups according to their clinical status: clinically normal, hypocellular, or with acute non-lymphocytic leukemia.
(7) Interestingly, actinomycin D treatment dissociated centromeres from localization within the segregated nucleolus.
(8) In contrast, hybrids segregating human chromosomes contain both human and murine histone mRNAs, yet synthesize only mouse histone proteins.
(9) Models incorporating linear spatial-frequency- and orientation-selective channels explain many aspects of visual texture segregation.
(10) On the basis of segregating phenotypes, the genetic potentials of these compatible nocardiae were ascertained as follows: the formation of a diploid with subsequent segregation of parental or haploid recombinant genomes or both; persistence of the diploid through many generations; continuing reassortment of genetic information by multiple matings between parental or recombinant organisms; and, very probably, second-round recombinations within the diploid.
(11) The £77m, split between Manchester, Leeds, Birmingham, Newcastle, Bristol, Cambridge, Oxford and Norwich, will help improve existing cycle networks and pay for new ones, creating segregated routes in some areas.
(12) In addition, predominant peripheral or axial disease appeared to segregate with different B27 haplotypes.

(14) The Multidimensional Personality Questionnaire (MPQ) was administered to members of nuclear families in which alcoholism was segregating and another set of nuclear families in which no psychiatric illness, including alcoholism, was present.
(15) Here we report evidence of at least four independently segregating loci in the mouse homologous to the M31 cDNA.
(16) Some of these transductants segregated certain F14 genes, indicating they were carried on self-replicating genetic elements, but others were not cured of F14 markers, even by acridine orange.
(17) These conclusions were derived from infectious center studies on segregated cell populations, as well as from ultrastructural analyses on cells labeled with specific markers.
(18) This 'segregate RF', however, is not homogenous: i.e.
(19) The combined results describe the depth of segregation of DMS blocks in Avcothane, the presence of DMS within the topmost 20 A in Biomer, and similar impurities in the model polymers.
(20) 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.
