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

The BACs at the boundaries between euchromatin and centric heterochromatin (see Table 1) identify 2.1 Mb (150 curated gene models) of heterochromatic sequence at the centric ends of the high-quality Release 3 sequence spanning the euchromatin [ 47].
These data show that the large Release 3 sequence contigs extend into the centric heterochromatin on these five chromosome arms.
BACs were selected from the centric ends of the essentially finished Release 3 sequence contigs that span the euchromatin [ 47], and the positions of the resulting hybridization signals on the cytological map were determined (Figure 8, Table 1).
Cytological boundaries of centric heterochromatin
The boundary of the centric heterochromatin of the X chromosome at the distal edge of band h26 corresponds approximately to polytene division 20C, band h35 on chromosome arm 2L corresponds to polytene division 40A, band h45 on 2R corresponds to polytene division 41F, band h47 on 3L corresponds to polytene division 80A, and band h58 on 3R corresponds to polytene division 82C.
