What's the difference between homogonous and pistil?
Homogonous
Definition:
(a.) Having all the flowers of a plant alike in respect to the stamens and pistils.
Example Sentences:

(3) Development of exact doses (less than 100) of Strongyloides venezuelensis third-stage larvae in adult Wistar rats was insignificant (mean proportion of 0.076 of the dose at day 8, n = 16) compared with a homogonic strain of S. ratti (0.538, n = 6; 0.726, n = 6) and heterogonic S. ratti (0.681, n = 6).
(4) Third-stage larvae of a homogonic strain of Strongyloides ratti applied in exact doses of less than 20 to the skin of the flank of young rats were recovered 16-40 h later in the naso-frontal part of the head.

(6) The structure of a 13-ethyl-D-homogon-4-ene-3,17 alpha-dione-17 carboxylic acid is proposed for the metabolite which decomposes to 13-ethyl-D-homogon-4-ene-3,17 alpha-dione [D-homo-G].
(7) The rate of loss of adults of the heterogonic strain was significantly greater than that for the homogonic.
(8) Group one was not inoculated; group two was inoculated with T. rhodesiense homogonate and group three with T. rhodesiense "fraction 3".
(9) It was established that 'autoinfection' was an unlikely feature of the biology of homogonic S. ratti following the surgical transfer of 450 first-stage larvae to the intestines of 8 adult Wistar rats.
(10) The time taken for larvae of Nippostrongylus brasiliensis and a homogonic strain of Strongyloides ratti to complete their migration from the skin surface to the small intestine of the rat was estimated by a new method in which a mirror image of arrival times was created by counting mature parasites at day 8 (N. brasiliensis) or day 5 (S. ratti) in the intestines of rats that had received a single pulse of morantel tartrate by stomach tube at different times starting 10 h after skin application of exact doses of infective larvae.
(11) Considerable variation was found between the clones in the degree of development that was homogonic.
(12) The direction of free-living development (homogonic vs. heterogonic) in Strongyloides stercoralis and Strongyloides planiceps was examined by successive transplantation of the uterine eggs of free-living females into a test tube culture system containing fresh feces.
(13) Large doses (mean 4000) of larvae of the homogonic strain of S. ratti carrying a radioactive label of 75Se were tracked in their migration to the mammary gland following injection or skin application at two different sites on the right-hand side of nursing mother rats.
Pistil
Definition:
(n.) An epistle.
(n.) The seed-bearing organ of a flower. It consists of an ovary, containing the ovules or rudimentary seeds, and a stigma, which is commonly raised on an elongated portion called a style. When composed of one carpel a pistil is simple; when composed of several, it is compound. See Illust. of Flower, and Ovary.
Example Sentences:
(1) Raised levels of atmospheric water cause a variety of responses in self-pollen, ranging from tube growth through the pistil to the ovary, to tubes inhibited at the stigmatic surface, accompanied by the formation of callose.
(2) When applied to sections of the pistil, these antibodies label the intercellular matrix in the stigma and transmitting tissue of the style and the cell walls in the epidermis of the placenta.
(3) We describe in this report the allelic diversity and gene structure of the S locus in Solanum tuberosum revealed by the isolation and characterization of genomic and cDNA clones encoding S-associated major pistil proteins from three alleles (S1, Sr1, S2).
(4) The label is transferred from pistil to pollen tubes apparently via the secretion products (exudate) of the pistil.
(5) The female S-locus gene products for two families showing different types of SI have been putatively identified as major pistil glycoproteins (the S-locus-specific glycoproteins of the Brassicaceae and the S-RNases of the Solanaceae).
(6) LAT52 mRNA is not detectable in pistils, sepals or non-reproductive tissues.
(7) The S-glycoproteins were expressed mainly in the upper part of the pistil and showed an increasing concentration during flower development.
(8) In situ hybridization experiments showed that at least one of these pistil-specific genes is specifically expressed in cells of the transmitting tissue.
(9) The structural events in the stigma and transmitting tissue of Petunia hybrida pistils that accompany compatible and incompatible intraspecific pollinations have been investigated in detail, together with the changes in reserve levels that also take place at this time.
(10) After pollination, the transcript levels of the pistil-specific extensin-like genes change relative to levels in unpollinated pistils.
(11) Compatible and incompatible pollen tubes growing on detached Lilium longiflorum pistils which had been prelabeled with myoinositol-U-(14)C take up a portion of the label and utilize it for biosynthesis of tube wall substance.
(12) The S2- and S3-alleles encode pistil-specific proteins of 30 kDa and 31 kDa, respectively, which were previously identified based on cosegregation with their respective alleles in genetic crosses.
(13) The maximal levels of 9612 RNA detected in anthers and vegetative organs were more than 50-fold and 250-fold lower than the level in pistils, respectively.
(14) The possible roles of the extensin-like proteins in pistils are discussed.
(15) A glycoprotein serologically related to the PR-2,N,O class is a (1,3)-beta-glucanase and is present in pistils.
(16) Here we report the characterization of a gene encoding another pistil ribonuclease of P. inflata, RNase X2.
(17) Double staining with sirofluor allows location of nuclei within pollen tubes grown in vitro, and when used after pollination enables the viewer to discriminate between nuclei within the pollen tube vs. nuclei of the pistil tissue.
(18) In the case of pistils, a pattern of labeling in ovary, style, and stigma is obtained which indicates that products of myoinositol metabolism are utilized in the biosynthesis of exudate (secretion product) of the stigma and style as well as for components of pistil cell walls.
(19) RNA gel blot hybridizations demonstrated the organ-specific expression of the extensin-like genes and their temporal regulation during pistil development.
(20) We have sought to identify pistil-specific genes that can be used as molecular markers to study pistil development.
