What's the difference between nicotian and nicotiana?
Nicotian
Definition:
(n.) Tobacco.
(a.) Pertaining to, or derived from, tobacco.
Example Sentences:
Nicotiana
Definition:
(n.) A genus of American and Asiatic solanaceous herbs, with viscid foliage and funnel-shaped blossoms. Several species yield tobacco. See Tobacco.
Example Sentences:
(1) Severe fruit rot of guava due to Phytophthora nicotianae var.
(2) Two Nicotiana plumbaginifolia cDNA clones, NeIF-5A1 and NeIF-5A2, encoding eukaryotic translation initiation factor eIF-5A (formerly called eIF-4D) were cloned by heterologous screening with Dictyostelium and human eIF-5A probes.
(3) The CyMV CP gene was placed downstream of a cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter and the chimaeric gene was transferred into Nicotiana benthamiana.
(4) Thus, although the genes involved in self-incompatibility in Brassica and Nicotiana are not homologous in their coding regions, signals for expression of these genes are apparently conserved between the two genera.
(5) Oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis was used to generate amber, ochre and opal suppressors from cloned Arabidopsis and Nicotiana tRNA(Tyr) genes.
(6) Experiments using different species of the plant Nicotiana and strains of the bacterium Agrobacterium tumefaciens showed that teratoma formation from crown galls was dependent on the combination of bacterial Ti plasmid and host plant used.
(7) We have analyzed the chromatin structure of the T-DNA isopentenyl transferase gene, ipt, in four Nicotiana tabacum crown gall tumor lines.
(8) The cucumber malate synthase (MS) gene, including 1856 bp of 5' non-transcribed sequence, has been transferred into Petunia (Mitchell) and Nicotiana plumbaginifolia plants using an Agrobacterium binary vector.
(9) Nicotine metabolism was studied in a number of wild species of the genus Nicotiana.
(10) The data are discussed in relation to the first division of the embryogenic vegetative cells in Nicotiana tabacum.
(11) The transposon Tam3 from Antirrhinum majus can transpose in a heterologous host (Nicotiana tabacum); thus the element is autonomous, probably encoding the specific information required for its own transposition.
(12) A translational fusion of AHA3 to the beta-glucuronidase (GUS) reporter gene was constructed and used to generate transgenic Nicotiana and Arabidopsis plants.
(13) The precursors of the F1-ATPase beta-subunits from Nicotiana plumbaginifolia and Neurospora crassa were imported into isolated spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) leaf mitochondria.
(14) This DNA fragment was stably integrated into the genome of Nicotiana tabacum by Agrobacterium tumefaciens mediated gene transfer.
(15) Tobacco mosaic virus particles were found in small packets and in small numbers, with the electron microscope, in necrotic leaf cells of Nicotiana glutinosa when the samples were fixed in glutaraldehyde and postfixed in OsO(4), and the sections were stained with heavy metals.
(16) Rat S18 is identical to mouse S18 (also referred to as KE3) and is related to Escherichia coli S13 and to other S13-like ribosomal proteins from Bacillus subtilis, from Bacillus stearothermophilus, and from plant mitochondria (Nicotiana tabacum and Zea mays).
(17) To decipher the early events preceding the re-entry of somatic cells into the cell cycle, we constructed a cDNA library from 6-h-old protoplasts of Nicotiana sylvestris.
(18) Fetal movement, observed by ultrasound imaging, was significantly reduced (P less than or equal to 0.001) in pregnant goats gavaged with Conium seed and Nicotiana glauca and temporarily reduced with fresh Conium plant.
(19) The promoter of this gene was used to direct expression of the diphtheria toxin A chain gene and the Escherichia coli beta-glucuronidase gene in transgenic Nicotiana tabacum.
(20) The 31 kd ribonucleoprotein (cp31) from tobacco (Nicotiana sylvestris) chloroplasts is coded for by a single-copy nuclear gene.
