(1) A novel stylar-specific glycosylated protein, sp41, was characterized.
(2) The presence of its substrate could not be demonstrated in pollen or in stigmatic or stylar tissues.
(3) Pollen tubes are stained dark blue to bluish red and stylar tissue light green to light greenish blue.
(4) Thus a subfamily of (1-3)-beta-glucanase pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins constitutes one of the major stylar matrix proteins.
(5) Taken together, our data indicate that (1) limited sequence differences may confer allelic specificity, (2) S-locus mRNAs accumulate in a precise organ-specific pattern during floral development, and (3) the ability to inhibit the growth of incompatible pollen tubes appears to require a threshold accumulation of the stylar gene product, along with the participation of as yet undefined pollen gene products.
(6) These systems have the added benefit that screening is done by the stylar tissues, rather than technicians.
(7) The third carpel, covering the germinal face of the kernel, retains a multicellular LII and unicellular LI organization but fails to contribute substantially to stylar outgrowth.
(8) Recessivity of stylar expression and low rates of receipt of pollen from related individuals facilitate the evolution of self-incompatibility.
(9) In addition, there exist 17 amino acid residues thought to be a signal peptide sequence at the N-terminus and 20 amino acid residues at the C-terminus; (3) The nucleotide sequence of the rntB gene is homologous to those of the RNase Rh gene from Rhizopus niveus and the S2 stylar glycoprotein gene of Nicotiana alata with degree of about 51% and 47%, respectively; (4) A. oryzae and A. nidulans transformed with the cloned rntB gene had much higher ribonuclease T2 activity than wild-type strains.
(10) The third phase of secretion occurs only following a compatible mating, and involves the transfer of stylar reserves to support the growth of the pollen tubes.
Sundial
Definition:
(n.) An instrument to show the time of day by means of the shadow of a gnomon, or style, on a plate.
Example Sentences:
(1) That means the family-run business, Sundial Group, pays at least £8.25 an hour to employees at the hotel – already well above the new national living wage of £7.20 that comes into force on Friday.
(2) In the kitchen and herb gardens you can buy salad and vegetables for your tea before wandering on to the fern garden with its geodesic dome (one of the largest collections in Scotland), the shady rhododendron dell, tranquil Japanese garden and, in front of the elegant whitewashed house, a giant sundial, over 10 metres in diameter.
(3) Sundial now runs three hotels in Northamptonshire, Warwickshire and Surrey that host conferences and training events for businesses as well as weddings.
(4) Facebook Twitter Pinterest Tim Chudley, managing director of Sundial Group, who opted to pay staff at his Surrey hotel the living wage in 2015.
(5) In the summer, Davies says, the flock ditches the scrubby shelter of the odd cluster of eucalypts to follow the turbine’s shade, stretching out along the shadow cast by the 80m pole like a woolly sundial.
(6) A great example is the "sunstone" Lothbrok uses for ship navigation in the show, a piece of seemingly magical rock that will light up with the sun's rays even on a cloudy day (the "sunstone" allows for the use of his sundial-compass even on long voyages, allowing him to eventually plunder England).
(7) In a recent cloak-and-dagger operation together with some like-minded Aleppines he managed to brick up its 14th-century sundial for safe-keeping,” he says.
(8) Grass tracks, barefoot runners, giant, felt-roofed yurt arenas, sundials and hour-glass timers, mead, morris dancers… Surely a win-win solution?
