(a.) Having a pistil or pistils; -- usually said of flowers having pistils but no stamens.
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.

(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.
Postillate
Definition:
(v. t.) To explain by marginal notes; to postil.
(v. i.) To write postils; to comment.
(v. i.) To preach by expounding Scripture verse by verse, in regular order.
Example Sentences:
(1) The postileal digestibility of the crude carbohydrates (CC) of 14 rations calculated from the difference between total digestibility (faecal analysis) and precaecal digestibility (analysis of the ileal chyme of IRA pigs) showed that between 40 and 100 g (70 g on average) out of the 780 g CC per kg DM consumed disappear in the large intestine.
(2) There is not yet an answer to the question in how far comparative studies of INT and IRA animals make verified statements with regard to the differences in the energetic utilization of the precaecally and postileally digested nutrients possible.
(3) A regressively calculated difference of 17%-units was regressively calculated between the utilization of metabolizable energy of either precaecal or postileal origin.

(6) For partioning the digestible energy into a prececal and postileal component the diet was supplemented with 0.3% Cr2O3, and samples of digesta taken by means of a cecum cannula were analyzed for this marker.
(7) This corresponds completely to the difference in the utilization of metabolizable energy between exclusively precaecal and postileal digestion.
