What's the difference between heterogamous and parthenogenetic?

Heterogamous


Definition:

  • (a.) The condition of having two or more kinds of flowers which differ in regard to stamens and pistils, as in the aster.
  • (a.) Characterized by heterogamy.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) It is proposed that, by reducing mating speed, inbreeding changes the rate of this sequence but not its pattern, so the apparent level of heterogamic mating will increase during inbreeding, for a fixed observation period.
  • (2) Heterogamous marriages, by contrast, show a higher divorce rate and tend to leave therapy prior to termination.
  • (3) In a multiple-choice mating between two genotypic strains differing in their level of sexual vigor, there is a sequence from heterogamic to homogamic mating.
  • (4) Observations on the genesis of the ascus by light microscopy and transmission electron microscopy provide no evidence for, what some earlier workers in this field have presumed to be, heterogamous conjugation between a mother cell and its bud.
  • (5) This principle states that a biallelic polymorphism is maintained if the heterozygote is superior in its degree of "heterogamous self-replication" to the degrees of "autogamous self-replication" of the corresponding homozygotes.
  • (6) We have observed directly females of Drosophila paulistorum semispecies in choice experiments with both homogamic and heterogamic males.
  • (7) Younger males increasingly tended to select brides of their own age group until the 1960s, while older males have been increasingly heterogamous since World War II.
  • (8) Previous heterogamic copulatory experience did not change the degree of sexual isolation; however, females with homogamic copulatory experience showed a significantly higher preference for homogamic males.
  • (9) An alternative explanation to the pheromonal control of mating through chemoreceptor saturation proposed by Averhoff and Richardson (1974) is offered for the apparent rise in heterogamic mating in their experiments, after several generations of full-sib mating.
  • (10) Thus these unions are termed "symptom object" relationships and are characterologically heterogamous.
  • (11) In most of the crosses homogamic matings outnumber heterogamic ones, and deviation from randomness is statistically significant in 11 of 20 crosses.

Parthenogenetic


Definition:

  • (a.) Of, pertaining to, or produced by, parthenogenesis; as, parthenogenetic forms.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Interspecific hybridization between sexual species carrying different b-alleles and producing different B subunits may be responsible for the heterozygosity at the lactate dehydrogenase b-locus in diploid parthenogenetic Cnemidophours.
  • (2) The parthenogenetic controls were negative (1.4% and 0%).
  • (3) These findings demonstrate a new and simple method of inducing post-implantation parthenogenetic development in the mouse, and stress the necessity of taking into account the possible consequences of anaesthesia in the early post-ovulatory period.
  • (4) The postimplantation viability of parthenogenetic eggs was tested and the results showed that parthenogenetic rabbit embryos died at a similar stage of development to the parathenogenetic mouse embryos.
  • (5) The accumulating process and concentration ratios of ingested blood meals in the larvae and nymphs of Amblyomma testudinarium, Haemaphysalis campanulata, H. concinna, H. formosensis, H. hystricis, H. kitaokai, the bisexual and parthenogenetic strains of H. longicornis, H. megaspinosa, and Ixodes persulcatus on rabbits and Argas japonicus on chickens were comparatively investigated.
  • (6) However, the contribution of parthenogenetic cells to the brain does appear to be influenced by strain background, since a marked improvement in the survival of CFLP, 129 and perhaps SWR parthenogenetic cells in chimeric brains was observed compared with F2 cells.
  • (7) Prolonged in vitro culture of oocytes after parthenogenetic activation and diploidization treatment showed that formed pronuclei were able to fuse and single prometaphase to telophase mitotic cleavage figures developed in all oocytes fixed 28 h after activation, except one cytochalasin B-treated oocyte with two prometaphase sets of chromosomes.
  • (8) The presence of duplications in all of these parthenogens, but not among representatives of their maternal sexual ancestors, suggests that the duplications arose in the parthenogenetic form.
  • (9) Freshly ovulated rabbit oocytes were activated parthenogenetically by periodically repeated calcium stimuli generated by electric field pulses applied onto the plasma membrane.
  • (10) Two morphologically different generations of nematodes, gamagenetic and parthenogenetic ones, develop in the body cavity of the insects.
  • (11) Parthenogenetic embryos display a fairly normal development until implantation.
  • (12) We determined the morphological survival rate, the pattern of parthenogenetic activation, and the microtubular and chromosomal organization.
  • (13) A high frequency of parthenogenetic activation occurs when ovulated mouse oocytes are briefly exposed to a dilute solution of ethanol in vitro.
  • (14) By 6.5 days, however, in almost every embryo, parthenogenetically derived cells were not detected in the extraembryonic trophoblast tissue descended from the TE.
  • (15) Southern blot analysis of all populations shows that they can be grouped into three classes: a) American bisexuals; b) Eurasian bisexuals, and c) parthenogenetic organisms (all from Eurasia).
  • (16) Despite these losses there has been a large increase in fecundity in the parthenogenetic strain.
  • (17) Past experiments on teratocarcinoma induction by ectopic grafting of early rodent embryos or fetal germinal ridges have remained ambiguous because embryos ordinarily soon form germ cells, and parthenogenetic germ cells form "embryos."
  • (18) Oocytes exhibited isolated maturative changes almost exclusively in FSH-LH cultures, such as cortical granule synthesis, resumption of meiosis, polar body extrusion, and two-cell parthenogenetic cleavage.
  • (19) The parthenogenetic Haemaphysalis longicornis larvae engorged on cattle naturally infected with Theileria sergenti were reared at 24 degrees C. The resultant nymphal ticks were incubated at 37 degrees C to clear the effect of incubation on the development and maturation of sporozoites.
  • (20) Blebbing exists only in oocytes activated by sperm in vivo or in vitro, or parthenogenetically by treatment with ethanol or puromycin.
