Example sentences for: bacteriome

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

  • As a result, most of a male armored scale insect's tissues (including his sperm) have one copy of half of the mother's genome (the same genome as the oocyte from which he developed), but his bacteriome has two complete copies of the mother's genome and also has a paternal genome.

  • In the case of armored scale insect chimerism, the bacteriome does have a copy of the paternal genome, and that copy is identical to the paternal genome in the rest of the embryo, so in that sense the two tissues do have a high relatedness similar to the high relatedness of full siblings under haplodiploidy.

  • Is a scale insect's bacteriome a kind of sibling?

  • Possibly, the presence of a massive contingent of maternal genes (a double dose of the complete maternal genome) in a nutritionally significant tissue like the bacteriome might somehow affect such decisions in ways favorable to maternal interests.

  • Thus, 60% (three of five) of the gene copies in the male's bacteriome are absent from the rest of the male (Figure 2).
