Example Sentences:
(1) The organization and expression of the mitochondrial (mt) genome of fertile, male-sterile and restored lines of Helianthus annuus and of H. petiolaris were compared to identify alterations which might lead to cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS).
(2) As the expression of the 16 kDa polypeptide seems to be linked to the interspecific cross between H. petiolaris and H. annuus it may play a role in CMS.
(3) texanus, known as ANT1, contained a unique mitochondrial DNA fragment, which is distinguishable from the fertile and sterile Petiolaris genotypes and from all investigated CMS genotypes.
(4) Comparing the mitochondrial in organello translation products we observed a unique 16 kDa protein, which is expressed in male-sterile lines carrying the H. petiolaris cytoplasm but is not detectable in fertile lines with H. annuus cytoplasm.
(5) Using the atpA probe, 5 from the 6 investigated CMS genotypes showed identical hybridization patterns to the Petiolaris CMS line, which is used in all commercial sunflower hybrids.
(6) The 16 kDa protein can also be observed in restored lines but not in H. petiolaris.
(7) Male fertility restoration and male sterility maintenance of the ANT1 line are different from the Petiolaris CMS system, which is a confirmation that a novel CMS genotype in sunflower has been identified.
Petiole
Definition:
(n.) A leafstalk; the footstalk of a leaf, connecting the blade with the stem. See Illust. of Leaf.
(n.) A stalk or peduncle.
Example Sentences:
(1) The results indicate that the anatomical counter-current heat exchanger is reduced or eliminated during heat stress by 'chopping' the blood flow into pulses, and the blood pulses are shunted through the petiole alternately by way of a switch mechanism.
(2) Young leaf tissues had much higher levels of glucosyltransferase activity than the petioles and internodes.
(3) The transcript is detectable in stem and petiole, but not in leaves.
(4) The epiglottic petiole, the false cords, the true cords, and one arytenoid are also excised, along with the paraglottic space.
(5) The narrow passage within the petiole between thorax and abdomen is anatomically constructed so that counter-current exchange should retain heat in the thorax despite blood flow to and from the cool abdomen.
(6) Linamarase (EC 3.2.1.21) was purified from cassava petiole, stem, and root cortex by ammonium sulfate precipitation, column chromatography on Sepharose 6B, and chromatofocusing.
(7) The tissue- and organ-specific overproduction of cytokinins produced a number of morphological and physiological changes, including stunting, loss of apical dominance, reduction in root initiation and growth, either acceleration or prolonged delayed senescence in leaves depending on the growth conditions, adventitious shoot formation from unwounded leaf veins and petioles, altered nutrient distribution, and abnormal tissue development in stems.
(8) The major tissue features of basal petioles and the external characteristics of the crude drugs have also been given.
(9) The occurrence of dispersal or nondispersal of P-protein bodies can be related to the position of the sieve elements in the stem or petiole.
(10) Many characters of leaf (hair, hypodermal cells, palisade layers, intercellular space, distinction between spongy and palisade parenchyma, "palisade ratio", distribution of collenchyma and sclerenchyma, presence or absence of starch grains, calcium oxalate crystals, number, shape and arrangement of bundles of petiole) are useful distinguishing characters.
