Example sentences for: diapause

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

  • Low-temperature-related diapause is virtually absent in southern species (e.g.

  • By day 15 the embryo is assumed to have entered diapause, as subsequent chilling does not prohibit successful hatching [ 8 ] .

  • Since heat-shock proteins are also involved in cell cycle arrest, however, they may play a more central role in the regulation of diapause [ 1 ] . Heat-shock proteins are also typically heat inducible, and so fit with the concept of a temperature dependent 'inhibitory factor' [ 33 ] . Additionally, high levels of heat-shock proteins may disrupt development [ 41 ] , which could help explain the developmental defects observed in embryos maintained at 16°C.

  • Diapause, therefore, represents a discrete developmental process that should be controlled, at least in part, by stereotyped gene expression.

  • Identifying what this change is, and what, if anything, it has to do with katatrepsis, will be key to understanding how the pea aphid controls development during diapause.
