Poky


Definition:

  • (a.) Confined; cramped.
  • (a.) Dull; tedious; uninteresting.

Example Sentences:

  • (17) The mitochondrial phenotype of [poky] and other extranuclear Neurospora mutants is known to predominate over that of wild type in heteroplasmons.
  • (18) They are not allowed to draw in court, so they must observe, make notes about someone’s characteristics and clothes, and then retreat to a poky press room where they sketch and colour at high speed.
  • (19) The residual small rRNAs in [poky] appear to be synthesized via the upstream promoter(s), but are missing 37-44 nucleotides from their 5' ends, indicating either that pre-rRNAs are processed abnormally or that abnormal 5' RNA ends are unstable.
  • (20) The ribosomal defect shows an extrachromosomal pattern of inheritance in crosses of poky with wild type.

Pony


Definition:
