Seedling


Definition:

  • (n.) A plant reared from the seed, as distinguished from one propagated by layers, buds, or the like.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) In aqueous solution, N-substituted isoxazolin-5-one derivatives, which occur in high amounts in seedlings of the tribe Vicieae, can be shown to undergo a proton exchange at C-4, indicative of their aromatic character.
  • (2) The PKABA1 transcript can also be induced by supplying low concentrations of ABA, and coordinate increases in ABA levels and PKABA1 mRNA occur when seedlings are water-stressed.

  • (4) Germinal excisions resulted in fully green seedlings.
  • (5) There were no detectable differences in the patterns of histone variants from immature grain (3-16 days after fertilization), from mature embryos, from coleoptiles and roots of 4-day-old, etiolated seedlings and from leaves of 10-day-old, light-grown seedlings.
  • (6) The maximal level as well as the kinetics of the induction were comparable between the suspension culture and soybean seedlings.
