Example sentences for: apoplastic

How can you use “apoplastic” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

A combined pathway for water through the apoplastic (cell wall) space and through cells, either transcellularly across the cell wall, or through the symplast via plasmodesmata, placed little emphasis on membrane barriers impeding such movement.
Because the movement of water through plants and plant tissues involves several barriers, including apoplastic, symplastic and transcellular ones, a single set of measures of overall hydraulic conductivity, although useful, is not sufficient for determining how particular AQPs function in planta .
For example, cecropin expression in transgenic tobacco did not confer resistance to P. syringae pv tabaci [ 18 ] , likely due to low apoplastic peptide concentrations due to proteolysis [ 19 ] . Therefore, prior to this work it was not clear whether a peptide antibiotic could play a role in the inhibition of galling by tumorigenic Agrobacterium in planta.
The advantage here is twofold: the isolation of the intracellular signal removes apoplastic tracer from the data; and, in contrast to other NMR methods using shift reagents, the movement of any small molecule that gives an NMR signal can be followed (this includes any molecule containing carbon, nitrogen or nonlabile hydrogen atoms).
One might speculate that by increasing membrane permeability to polyols and/or other metabolites, some plant AQPs could be involved in long-distance apoplastic transport or signaling rather than in the bulk secretion of, for example, glycerol.
